Terry from Kenya has spent 20 years in the city he now calls home. Having lived in Beijing for more than 20 years, Terry has finally made his Chinese dream come true—becoming a volunteer.
He often gives tourists directions, gets water for a baby and even helps a neighbor sell cold drinks. "I like helping other people," he said. "This is where I live, where my friends are and where I call home." Terry became interested in Chinese culture as a teenager when he read the Tao Te Ching by Laozi.
In 1981, he went to Shanghai. His first visit to Beijing was six years later on business. Terry and his family moved to Beijing in 1997, and since then he has lived and worked in Beijing. Now Terry can make traditional noodles, and when he goes to a restaurant, he usually orders dumplings and some traditional Beijing dishes.
He likes chatting (聊天) with people there, especially taxi drivers. "I am more familiar with the lives of taxi drivers than most Beijingers," he said. "When I see their license numbers, I can tell how many years they have worked." "They are so knowledgeable," he said. "I learned many Chinese from them."
Terry does not want to leave Beijing. He said, "Your home is where your things are. In this sense, Beijing is my home. Now I just enjoy living here."
Once there were two neighbors. One of them was an old teacher and the other was an office worker. Both of them planted the same plants in their gardens. The old teacher gave a little water to his plants every day and didn't always care for them, while his neighbor gave much water to his plants and looked after them well.
The old teacher's plants were simple but looked good. The office worker's plants were much taller and greener. One night, there was a heavy rain. The next morning, the office worker saw his plants were uprooted (连根拔起), but the old teacher's plants stood firmly (稳固地).
The neighbor was surprised and went to the old teacher and asked, "We both grew the same plants together. I looked after my plants better than you did, and I even gave them more water. However, my plants were uprooted, while yours weren't. Why?"
The old teacher smiled and said, "You gave your plants more water, so they didn't need to work for it. I gave them a little water, so their roots grew deeper to get more water. It made them stronger."

I'm Lisa from Guangming School. Here is a question for you. Do you know yourself? In fact, it is important to know our good and bad points. Because knowing them will help us to improve. We should examine ourselves and learn we are. First, we should recognize our good and bad points. For example, I am (health) and fit, so I can work hard and (offer) help. I'm also friendly, (unfair) and polite. And I can follow the rules in our school. Besides, I always look on the bright side of the things. These (be) my good points. the same time, I have bad points, too. I'm a little stubborn (固执的) and want everything (go) on my own way. Sometimes I do things (lazy) as well. On Saturdays I stay at home, only (watch) TV and eating junk food. Moreover, my room is in mess on weekends. To be honest, I'm not ashamed to admit these bad points.

After all, nobody is perfect. Self-awareness is important. It is the best way to improve ourselves. What's your idea?
