新东方网薛鹏思路拓展：

鼓励年轻人做社区服务的利好：

1. 在服务社区过程中，年轻人会加深对于社会的洞察，学习如何有效地和人交流交往，积累相关的工作经验， 这些都可以为年轻人未来的择业打下了坚实的基础。

2. 从精神成长的角度而言，年轻人做社区服务，尤其是帮助孤儿院的儿童或者是老人院的老人，有助于培养一个人的爱心，责任心，同情心，进而使人有一种积极善良的心态。

3.年轻人做社区服务，可以给社区带来直接的帮助，缓解他们的工作压力，也起到了示范的作用，鼓励更多的人帮助社区。

年轻人做社区服务的弊端：

1.鼓励年轻人做社区服务可能会分散学生们的精力，耽误他们的学习时间，甚至成为一些孩子们贪玩的借口。

2. 各种社区服务也是有严格工作要求的，如果一些年轻人们缺乏社区服务的知识，那么他们的工作不是帮忙，反而是添乱。

新东方网薛鹏原创范文赏析：

首段：背景介绍 + 争议焦点 + 作家立场

It is a common practice that young students in numerous countries are required to embark on a period of voluntary community service work. However， peoples’ views differ greatly on this practice. To voice my opinion, those who are in the formative years should be motivated to undertake glorious community work, yet, its possible downsides should be emphasized

二段：鼓励年轻人做社区服务的利好的展开：

Granted， seen from the positive aspects, some merits could be gained via encouraging young students to be involved in unpaid community service. The most glaring virtue is that those who assume the responsibility of community work could learn how to care about others and provide concrete assistance. Meanwhile, it will enhance their sense of social responsibility and cultivate their loving hearts. Still, one’s co-ordination ability, teamwork spirit and management ability could be promoted during the process of serving the community. Eventually, as for many city-born young people, it is the experience of community service that makes them become independent, sociable and cooperative.

三段：鼓励年轻人做社区服务的弊端的展开：

Nonetheless，under no circumstances can we ignore the potential drawbacks triggered by introducing unpaid community service into secondary school curriculums . First, the unpaid community service will surely occupy the finite and precious time of the students, which can otherwise be used in learning or building their bodies. Further, a great many students are too young or inexperienced to cope with the complicated community service. In this sense, instead of doing the community a favor, their voluntary activity might add burden to the community.

尾段：再次亮明观点

In closing, my stand is that although community service is a challenging task and might take up some time, the merits of encouraging students to do the community service outshine the demerits. Only by means of voluntary community work can we cultivate more and more responsible, well-behaved and caring social citizens.
