Two Chinese farmers sang In Spring in their small room after drinking on a late August evening in Beijing. A friend put their song on the Internet. And soon they became stars around China.
Wang Xu, 49, is from Henan, and Liu Gang, 34, is from Heilongjiang. They are among the millions of farmers who have gone to cities to work. "Although nobody pays attention to the music, I am singing happily, in streets, under bridges or in wild country, with no credit card, no girlfriend or a home with hot water, but only a guitar," they sing." It is just like the life we live now," Wang said." We are poor farmers, and you know people won't care about us." Their song is loved by millions of Chinese, including the people who are also from the countryside. Many people said they cried after listening to the song.
Wang came to Beijing in 2000 and tried many jobs. Each month after he paid 600 yuan for the house and bought food, there was little money left. "I love music, and also want to make more money," Wang said. "I never dreamed of standing on such a big stage." Liu came to Beijing in 2003. "I wanted to try my luck in the big city," he said.

2. John and Bob were neighbours. For more than 30 years, they had been getting along very well. But one day their good relationship broke.
One morning John woke up to find a stream(小溪) between the two farms. “It must be Bob,” John thought. Then John met a carpenter(木匠).
John said. “My neighbour Bob dug(挖) a stream between the two farms. I want you to build a fence(栅栏)—an 8-foot fence. I don’t want to see his place or his face any more.”
The carpenter said, “I think I know what to do, sir, and I’ll be able to do a job that makes you happy.” About sunset when the farmer returned, the carpenter had just finished his job. The farmer’s eyes opened wide. There was no fence there at all!
It was a bridge! And the neighbour, Bob, was coming across, with his hand outstretched(伸出). “Hi, John!You’re quite a guy to build this bridge!”
Then they met in the middle, taking each other’s hands. “I’m terribly sorry for what I have said and done. We should be good to each other,” said Bob.

3. A “Gap Year” is a period of time when a student takes a break before going to university. It is often spent travelling or working. It can give young people useful learning experiences and new skills.
Gap years are popular with European and Australian students, but remain less popular in America. However, in recent years, more and more American students are preparing for college by taking a gap year. The advantages of taking a gap year are as follows:

The experiences of different cultures offer you interesting lessons. You can learn more about the world and get to know yourself better.
Face Challenges and Have Fun
A gap year is not only a time to take a vacation, but also a time to face challenges. Gap year students usually work, volunteer or take service projects. You have to learn how to get along in the real world. This process isn’ t always easy, but it is an important part of growing up. Only in this way can you enjoy life and have fun.

Besides, at the end of a gap year, students are much more likely to know what to study in college. Clear learning goals ran keep the students working hard instead of wasting time and money playing.
