　　Describe a person who helps others in their spare time.

　　You should say:

　　Who this person is

　　How often this person helps others

　　How and why this person helps others

　　And how you feel about this person

　　There are many caring people that I have known in my life and my grandfather is surely one of them. The impact he had on my life is really quite incredible.

　　He was fairly tall and buff man. Even though he was more than 70 years old, he had almost no wrinkles on his face, and his warm smile always made him very approachable. He was the most warm-hearted person that I have ever known - he taught me to be a kind man and never treat others badly or with sly intention, even when we feel we have been treated in that way ourselves.

　　Well, as far as I can remember, my grandpa was almost never home. He was always occupied in the community helping new neighbors move, delivering people’s mails and even solving disputes between couples by giving them advice and helping them solve their personal issues. He was always happy when he could solve problems for others. He never wanted anything in return, and he just really enjoyed the process I guess.

　　I think the way he cared about people also had a positive influence on my attitude towards life. I used to be so spoilt and self-centered, never cared about anyone or anything. And I had almost no friends during my childhood basically because of that. However, he taught me and helped me to correct the weak link in my personality and now I tend to treat people around me with kindness, love and patience for the most part.

　　Even though my grandpa passed away 16 years ago, the impact he had on me is most certainly going to last my whole life.

　　Part3

　　1. Why are some people willing to help others??

　　Some people are perhaps more empathetic than others. What I mean is, some people have a greater sympathy and empathy towards the struggles of other people and therefore they feel more motivated to help people out when they see people in need. This is the main reason and motivation for some people being more willing to engage in acts of kindness, especially kindness to strangers and people in need. Other people are less sympathetic, more wrapped up in their own issues and problems, or even nervous or shy about getting involved in other people’s business. This comes from individual personality, upbringing and personal circumstances. Some people are simply in a better position to help others, too.

　　2. In what kinds of professions do people help others more?

　　I’d say the most helpful professions are those related to charity or volunteer work, and of course, those in the medical profession. Doctors and nurses are constantly helping others – it’s simply part of the job. Those kind of jobs are basically 100% geared towards helping other people out, as well as working very long hours in quite difficult situations in order to do so. Other professions I can think of might be fire fighters, and people who are in dangerous professions where their lives are put at risk in order to save other people from danger. These are the examples that first come to mind anyway!

　　3. Who should teach children to help others? Parents or teachers?

　　Both school and parents should share this responsibility really. Basic moral behavior and understanding of people and society comes from parents, a child’s upbringing from birth, and then school teachers should also instill proper values in children during their education. Children should also be warned about the dangers or risks of being too helpful – there’s a fine line between being very helpful and considerate and kind, and being cheated or tricked by people who are trying to con you. This also happens, and it’s the duty of both parents and teachers to make sure kids are street-wise, and know who to help and who not to help in various typical situations that might arise in life.

　　4. Do people nowadays help others more than in the past?

　　I am not sure. I think that people help their neighbours or members of their local community less, because society is a bit colder and more individualistic in this sense today than in the past. But, on the other hand, there are more charities and volunteer groups around today, and it’s more fashionable that large companies get involved in corporate social responsibility, or CSR, where they have initiatives and activities and funds that are dedicated to worthy causes – helping fund orphanages, build libraries or develop areas of communities that are lesser privileged. So, in some ways people are less helpful and in other ways we see more help than we did in the past. Depending on how you look at it!
