As a homework for an English class I've read two texts about non-paid internships. I am agree with the author of first text Anya Kamenetz who thinks that internships, especially when they are unpaid, are not good for students. First of all, I'm agree with her opinion that unpaid internship isn't really a job, only simulation. As she writes, there is't strong connection between well-paid job and internship. In my opinion, work should be paid. Secondly, I think that if students work as qualified workers, they should receive salary. It's a kind of discrimination when students work without salary despite the fact that they do a lot of things which are useful for company when they work. And unpaid internship is possible only for students' which families have enough money to pay for education. In the second text Jennifer Halperin reflect the views of students who liked unpaid internships. But Anya Kamenetz writes that students, who take part in unpaid internships like their work more than people, who receive salary for their work. And there's an empirical observation that people who accept to do something like unpaid internships(something not very easy and without any reward) more than people who decline it.
So I think that unpaid internships are not good for students.

Why do you think that ALL unpaid internships aren`t a real job, only simulation? Did take any internships? Well, I can assure you, that there at least 5-7 internship that I know, which are really tought ones. You will work 24/7 for 9 weeks, and spend at least 10 hours every day at work. Moreover, people, who took such internships and they work in these companies, that internships were real work, and they did exactly the same, as they are foing now.
