A
As a volunteer teacher, I traveled along way to a small village school in Longzhou, Guangxi. On my way there, I thought about the village, the school and the children there. However, my heart (心)sank (下沉) when I arrived there. It wasn’t what I expected(希望). It didn’t look like a school at all! The school had only three rooms, one for Grades 1, 2 and 3, and the other is 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 (水平). To my surprise, 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 hard-working 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(经历) has been very useful for me. I loved the small village and the children. In fact, I would like to continue working here.

An exhausted（筋疲力尽的）looking woman came into the doctor’s office. She said, “Doctor, there are a lot of dogs all over my neighborhood. They bark（犬吠）all day and all night, and I can’t get a good sleep.” “I have good news for you,” the doctor said, taking out a small bottle（瓶子）. “Here are some new sleeping pills（安眠药）that work like a dream. A few of these and your trouble will be over.”
