Recently, a 17yearold girl named Cassandra Hsiao becomes hot in the world. Living in California，the girl has received offer letters(录取通知书) from all eight Ivy League colleges(常春藤名校), including Harvard, Princeton and Yale.
Cassandra's father came from Taiwan while her mother was from Malaysia(马来西亚). She was born in Malaysia, and her family moved to the United States when she was five. The family suffered a lot in the new country. Luckily, Cassandra works hard all the time. Cassandra wrote their stories on their hard struggles(奋斗) in the college essay, which was really touching the world.
“Your personal identity(个人身份) and sense of belonging(归属感) are two of the most important problems that people from other countries must face. I wanted to share a piece of our home life, my relationship with my mother and both of our stories，” she told BBC News.
“I miss Malaysia. Growing up, I loved flying kites, going to markets and setting off firecrackers(烟火). I spent my childhood talking in a mixture of Chinese, Malaysia and English，” she said lovingly.
It's difficult to deal with language difficulties. Once her mother was laughed at by her teacher and classmates for using wrong English in an English paper. But a kind girl stood up and argued with the classmates. She fought them back and help my mother correct her language mistakes.
“Later my mother asked me to teach her proper English starting with pronunciation. It has not been easy. I believe this article really shows values I hold close to my heart: Standing up for those without a voice, even when you think you haven't quite found your own yet，” said Cassandra.

A four-year-old girl is lying in the arms of a doctor. She has just become motherless. The bombing(轰炸) destroyed her home and killed her mother.
Every day we see pictures like this on TVs or in newspapers. We see young Iraqi children begging for food and water from American and British soldiers when they move through towns and cities towards the capital, Baghdad(巴格达). We see these children following grown-ups, carrying bags of things almost at the same size as their small bodies as they flee(逃离) their homes in Baghdad.
“Dad, why are the Americans striking （攻击） us? Are we going to be killed?” asks the son of Abu Sinar, an Iraqi engineer. Abu finds it hard to explain this war to his eight-year-old son.
He tries to comfort him by saying, “The bombs are far away from us. The Americans are fighting the soldiers. We are going to be all right.” Even though Abu knows this isn’t always the truth, what else can he do? In Baghdad, parents give their children sleeping pills to make them sleep so that they won’t hear the sound of bombing. And all the schools are closed.
“All we can do is to listen to and hear the war.” said Abu. “We, all the people and the children, have to live in fear. We feel hopeless and helpless. We don’t know where the next bombs are going. We can do nothing but wait to be killed.”

Dear Mr. Lim,
My name is Mary Taylor. I’m a 14-year-old girl. I want to be a pilot. I spend hours watching the planes take off from the airport. I love traveling to new places by plane and the idea of flying people around the world!
