2.2. Listening. Listen to the text (twice)

Community service is work done by a person or group of people that benefits others. It is often done near the area where you live, so your own community reaps the benefits of your work. You do not get paid to perform community service, but volunteer your time. Community service can help many different groups of people: children, senior citizens, and people with disabilities, even animals and the environment. Community service is often organized through a local group, such as a place of worship, school, or non-profit organization, or you can start your own community service projects.

Many people participate in community service because they enjoy helping others and improving their community. Some students are required to do community service in order to graduate high school or to receive certain honors.

There are numerous benefits to participating in community service, both for yourself and for others. Below are some of the most important benefits of volunteering:

Gives you a way to help others
Helps improve your community
Can help strengthen your resume and college applications
Can be a way to meet new friends
Often results in personal growth
Gives you a way to gain work experience and learn more about certain jobs

6.Grammar.

6.1. Grammar rules.

Such is used as a determiner; so is an adverb. Usually they have the same meaning of 'very' or even 'to this degree':

Those are such tasty candies.

Those candies are so tasty.

We use such + noun phrase and so + adjective or adverb phrase:

She is such a talented artist.

That was so awful.

Compare

so + adjective	*such* + noun phrase
You're so clever.	She is *such* a kind woman.
It was so cold last night.	September was *such* a rainy month.
