Read the passage. Then answer the question. The Many Sides of Volunteering Most people agree that volunteering is a positive experience. Volunteers give back to the community, provide meaningful assistance to people in need, and use their experience and skills to improve the quality of life for others. However, the rewards of volunteering are not only based on giving. In fact, the act of volunteering may be even more beneficial to volunteers themselves than to the people they support. Volunteers are individuals who choose to provide assistance in many areas, from working with senior citizens, to walking dogs at the shelter, to building homes for the homeless. Volunteers are from all walks of life, but many work or go to school full time and arrange their busy schedules to work with others early mornings, evenings, or weekends. Some would argue that volunteering adds significant stress to already hectic lives. Interestingly, studies show that volunteering actually helps reduce stress, because individuals who volunteer report feeling a greater sense of purpose and self-worth. This happens because volunteers build strong social relationships that help carry them through challenging times. The act of helping others and making a difference actually enhances their life experience. As a result, research demonstrates that people who volunteer have lower mortality rates, better physical health, and lower rates of depression later in life than those who do not volunteer. Given this, it would appear that volunteering is an excellent way to combat stress! 1. What is the author’s argument in “The Many Sides of Volunteering”? How does the author support the argument?

1. What is the author’s argument in “The Many Sides of Volunteering”? How does the author support the argument? Use evidence from the text to support your response. Your response should be at least two complete paragraphs.

Answer: The authors argument is that volunteering helps many people, not just those being directly benefited in visible ways. The author uses statistics from a study to support his/her argument.

So take the information above and add lots of info and textual support to create at least 8-10 sentences. As long as you payed close attention to details this shouldn't be to hard. :)


Hope this helps!!



The authors argument is, why you should volunteer. They are stating many facts in order to persuade you into choosing the path they want you to go. With many good facts they have stated, they know they will hook you into doing so. The author uses statistics from a study to support his/her argument. Which, leads me to evidence which I took from the essay.

     An argument stated is, “Some would argue that volunteering adds significant stress to already hectic lives.” Yet, the author gives statements supporting why that argument is indeed false. The author wrote, “Interestingly, studies show that volunteering actually helps reduce stress, because individuals who volunteer report feeling a greater sense of purpose and self-worth.” Although, pretty much all of the authors writing is pretty accurate and persuasive. The author gives good clarifications onto why volunteering is good. Therefore, I say this is a well written argumentative essay.
