“I am a selfish child.

I hope the sunshine lies only upon me, so I can feel its warmth.

I am a selfish child.

I hope there is a corner of the world that can comfort me when I am sad.

I am a selfish child.

I hope my mum belongs only to me, so I can enjoy the sweetness of love.”

This poem was written by a middle school student in a lonely mountainous town in Yunnan Province during her first poetry class. The girl missed her mother, who died when she was 5.

Kang Yu, the teacher who taught the girl how to write the poem, graduated from Renmin University of China in Beijing in 2015. Soon after her graduation, Kang moved to a town in Yunnan, and worked as a teacher at a middle school.

Kang said, “Compared with students in the city, perhaps students in the countryside need a way to express their feelings and be heard more.” Supported by the headmaster and other teachers, the school held eight poetry classes for students every year.

As the classes grew in popularity, Kang became the school’s favorite teacher. After she finished her teaching at the school in June 2017, she returned to Beijing and planned to study abroad.

However, on Teachers’ Day in 2017, Kang received a big box full of poems and letters written by students at her old school. She felt she was needed and decided to abandon her plan of studying abroad. Instead she set up Enlighten our Future, a charity that teaches students in the countryside how to write poems.

“Now, I go to several places every week. I sleep less than six hours a night and the job provides no vacations and little money, but the happiness and satisfaction I feel is rewarding enough.” Kang said.

1.What’s the poem about at the beginning of the passage?

A.A world which is full of love.

B.A mother who misses her child.

C.A child who can feel the sun’s warmth.

D.A child who is in need of mother’s love.

A.make up. B.give up. C.put off. D.look up.

3.How many poetry classes did Kang Yu hold for students at a middle school in Yunnan?

A.Four. B.Six. C.Eight. D.Ten.

4.Why did Kang Yu set up Enlighten our Future?

A.To go to several places every week.

B.To become the school’s favorite teacher.

C.To provides no vacations and little money

When disaster (灾难) happens, you might find yourself without water, gas and electricity. You might even need to leave your home right away. So you are supposed to plan for the bad situations before the disaster comes. Here are some suggestions.

First, have a family meeting. Plan a way to get your family members together if they can’t find each other after the disaster. Choose two places for everyone to go to if it isn’t safe to return home.

Put them in a bag so you can carry it if you leave in a hurry. When doing it, remember that different people have different needs. Include special things necessary for elderly of young members of your family.
