As a volunteer teacher, I traveled a long way to a small village school in Longzhou, Guanxi. On my way there, I thought about the village, the school, and the children there. However, I felt sad when I arrived there. It wasn't what I expected. It didn't look like a school at all! The school had only three rooms, one for Grades 1, 2 and 3, and another one for Grades 4, 5 and 6. There was a third one for me.

    The children welcomed me warmly on my first day. They asked me a lot of questions, and I told them stories about myself and my life in Shanghai. The next day, I gave them a test to find out their level. Though the test was very easy, over half of the students failed it, yet they all wanted to learn new things. I knew they needed me.

    I was busy preparing lessons, reading test papers every night. I enjoyed teaching these lovely and hardworking children, and I could see that they were making progress with my help. I have also learned a lot from them. I understand their lives better, and we are now good friends.                       

I have worked in Longzhou for a year now. I’m very happy, and the experience has been very useful for me. I love the small village school and the children. In fact, I would like to continue working here.

    Let’s Protect Wild Animals

       Animals are people’s friends. However, the number of wild animals is getting smaller and smaller because wild animals’ living places are becoming fewer and fewer. Also, many wild animals now can’t find enough food to eat. At the same time, people are killing animals for their fur, teeth, bones or other parts of the body. And people keep on cutting down lots of trees. What should we do to protect wild animals? We should stop killing them, set up more reserves for them and plant more trees.
