Issue 34请指教,Thanks!

Should all citizens be required to perform a specified amount of public service? To some extent, I agree with the author if this amount of public service will not influence people's daily work and life.[c1]  However, the author overstates the relative importance of citizens, in regard of publice service while overlooks some other important factors which may also affect this issue.On balance, my points of  agreement and contention of [c2] the author involve a fundemental and deep analysis as shown below.

On the one hand, I must admit that the requirement of all citizens to attend public service will benefit the country as well as individuals. The author's argument[c3]  has some merits and the implicit rationale behind it accords with the common sense and our normal practice. Hence, it is  partially indisputable.After all, human are selfish in nature, if they are not required to attend the publice service, then they would not realize the value of this service, thus they would not cherish and be grateful for everything the public service do. Also, the so called "free-ride" complex tells us that if publice service is always done by a particular group, then people would just take the purblice serviece as granted, totally ignore that maybe, they should contribute to this society.

Furthermore, we can't always rely on some particular groups,such as some non-governmental organization to care the publice sector, for the reason that this society has so many walks of life, so many things to care, and it is certainly not enough only for these groups to care. And it is also at everyone's stake to be attentive, and caring to our society. For example, since the 20th century, the disease AIDS has swept some countries, such as China. If we take the attitude that this is an issue for the government to care, and totally ignore our responsibility as citizens, then AIDS would be a hopeless disease. But luckily, we still have so many warm-hearted citizens, some of them volunteered to comfort these patients by visiting them in hospital, some of them donate money for scientists to develop new treatment,to  name a few. All these evidence demonstrates beyond any doubt  how important citizen's participation is to the society as a whole, and I have strong reasons to believe that through the participation, these citizens also benefit in turn.

On the other hand, the argument overstates the importance of citizens in public services. the first argument-one I find the most compelling-is that asking citizens to join social services may lead to low efficiency, because they are not professional in this regard. And sometimes the effort to train them to understand what they should do is too much and not easy. The second argument, it might be noticed by others,is that requirement of citizens to commit social services may occupy too much of their time, and this amount of time, if used in their own speciality, maybe even more productive and contributive to the society.Accordingly, I tend to concede that when it comes to some certain circumstances it is partially inappropriate.
