We live in a forest in Zambia(赞比亚). There aren't any neighbor 1nearby. And this community school is about an hour's drive from our home. It 2169 students from Grade 1 to Grade 7. There are four teachers in the school. They are volunteers and they teach students 3 getting any money. But sometimes students will give 4 teachers some chicken and corn. There are over 70 languages in Zambia. English is the most popular and 5 of the students can speak English.
There is no running water in the school and the water pump(水泵) is broken. Teachers and students can't 6 it for two months. So they have to 7 their water from a nearby river. During school holidays, it always rains 8 and the grass grows taller and taller. When school opens again, students will 9 the grass and the school ground.
Most children in Zambia go to the community schools 10 other schools are too far for them to go. They like their schools and they love their teachers.

An old man was going home late one night with his horse and cart after a day's hard work. When he was not far away from his house, the light on the cart went out. He tried but could not repair it. He was near his home, and so he went along the road without a light. When a policeman saw this, he stopped the old man.
"Where is your light?" asked the policeman. "No man may take a cart along the road at night without a light. You know that. You have broken the law." "I had a light, but it has just gone out," said the old man.
"I don't believe that story. What's your name and where do you live?" asked the policeman. "Please don't write down my name," said the old man. "My home is just there. You can see it from here. I had a light nearly the whole way."
"You came all the way without a light. What's your name?"
The old man quickly took the policeman's hand and put it down on the top of the light. The light was still hot and burnt the policeman's hand. The policeman jumped and he was very angry. "Now, what do you think?" said the old man. "Did I come all the way without a light?"

The government in China plans to end its one-child policy (政策) and let families have two children instead. The plan was meant to balance (平衡) population development and stop a falling birth rate (出生率).
China started the one-child policy in the 1980s. But the government allowed only a small number of couples to have two children. For example, some families in the countryside could have two children, if the first-born child is a girl. In 2013, the Chinese government gave other couples a chance to have two children if one of them was an only child.
Jiang Quanbao, a population expert, explained how Chinese families react to the newest policy. "Lots of young people in the cities are no longer interested in having a second child," he said.
At the end of 2014, China had a population of 1.37 billion people. But the labor market population will drop in 35 years. That is to say, the country will be in great need of labor by the year 2050. With the "two children" policy, an increase in births can solve this problem.
①.The "two children " policy was announced.
②. China had a population of 1.37 billion people.
③. Some families in the countryside could have two children.
④. Families could have two children if one parent was an only child.

It is reported that some developed countries have shipped broken parts of computers to China. Last month Hong Kong officers found 131,000 kilograms of broken computers, TVs and phones sent from Japan.
Things like these are called electronic waste, or e-waste. Dealing with them is not an easy job. Every time an old computer breaks down, it needs to be dealt with safely. What is worse, at present, broken computer parts are usually buried. It may be hundreds of years before they are really g one in the earth.
Many places in China are polluted by e-waste. Guiyu in Guangdong Province is one of them. This town is named as "the e-waste capital of the world". It has to deal with 1.5 million kilograms of e-waste each year, from which it makes 75 million yuan. But it comes at a cost. Many of the poisons in e-waste find their way into the environment. An environmental group has found the air, the earth and the rivers in Guiyu badly polluted.
Luckily, the Chinese government wants to change the situation. This year, China passed a new environmental protection law. Computer companies like Lenovo and Dell will be asked to take back their old computers. Hopefully, the problem with e-waste will be solved in the near future.
