    My mom only had one eye. I hated her. She was such an embarrassment.

    She ran a small shop at a flea (跳蚤) market and collected old clothes and some other things to sell for the money we needed. Once during elementary school, it was field day, and my mom came. I was so embarrassed and wondered how she could do this to me? I threw her a hateful look and ran out. The next day at school, my schoolmates laughed at me, "Your mom only has one eye!" I was so angry with my mom. So I said to my mom, "Why don't you have the other eye?" My mom said nothing.

    I hated my one-eyed mom. I told myself that I would become successful in the near future, so I studied very hard. Later, I got accepted by the Seoul University. I left my mom and came to Seoul to study. Then I got married there. Now I am living happily as a successful man. I enjoy the life in Seoul because it's a place that doesn't remind me of my mom and my past. This kind of happiness was getting bigger and bigger, until one day I saw my mom. She was still with her one eye. Even my daughter ran away, scared of my mom's eye. I screamed at her, "Who are you? I don't know you! How dare you come to my house and scare my daughter?" To this, my mom quietly answered, "Oh, I'm so sorry. I may have gotten the wrong address." Then she disappeared out of sight.

    One day, a letter about a school reunion (学校聚会) came. After the reunion, I went down to the old shack, which I used to call a house. There I found my mom fallen on the cold ground. Then a piece of paper in her hand came into my eyes. It was a letter to me.

My son,

    I'm so sorry that I only have one eye, and I was an embarrassment for you. When you were very little, you got into an accident and lost your eye. As a mom, I couldn't stand watching you having to grow up with only one eye. So I gave you mine. I was so proud of my son to see a whole new world for me with that eye. During the couple of times that you were angry with me, I thought to myself, it's because you love me. Don't cry for me because of my death. I love you so much."

    A photo of a boy who arrived at school with a head full of icicles(冰柱)has drawn widespread attention to children from poor rural families.

    Wearing only a thin jacket, Wang Fuman, 10, had braved -9C weather to travel over an hour from his village home to reach Zhuanshanbao

    Primary School in Zhaotong, Yunnan province.

    "After walking more than 4 kilometers through the freezing snow, he arrived with his hair and eyebrows completely frozen, causing laughter among his 16 classmates," said Fu Heng, the school's principal, who uploaded(上传) Wang's photos on Monday morning. Fu added that his classrooms do not have heating because of a lack of money.

    After hearing Wang's story, the Yunnan China Youth Development Foundation offered a public donation(捐赠) for children from poor families on Tuesday. It has promised to give each needy child 500 yuan ($75) to help them stay warm in winter. By 1:00 p.m. on Wednesday, the provincial foundation bad collected over 300,000 yuan in public donations according to their websites.

    Wang, who has been nicknamed "Snowflake Boy"(冰花男孩)by netizen (网友),became well-known online. By Wednesday morning, his picture had been 'liked" more than 260,000 times on Sina Weibo. "Many children in cities don't have the strong willpower of this boy. I hope all his efforts will be rewarded(回报)," a netizen wrote on Sina Weibo.

    The name Fuman translates as "full of happiness", but Wang does not come from a rich family. He lives in a mud hut(土坯房) with his grandmother and elder sister, and seldom sees his parents because they are migrant workers in other cities.

    "I love school. We can have bread and milk for lunch, and we learn lots of things in class," Wang said. His village now has electricity and tap water, "and my family is getting help to build a new house close to the school", he said. "I think our life will get better."

Gui Haichao is a university teacher, mainly studying space at Beihang University.  His dream of flying to space has now come true. 

On May 30th morning, the Shenzhou-16 went into space from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Centre (酒泉卫星发射基地) in northwest China. 

In 2018, China began to select the astronauts.  Unlike past choices, this time, astronaut s were chosen in three kinds: space pilots, space engineers, and payload specialist (载荷专家).  Gui becomes the first payload specialist to enter space.  During the Shenzhou-16 task, he will manage the payload for space science experiments. 

Gui grew up in a common family in Yunnan Province.  His interest in space began at the age of 17 when he turned on the school radio and heard the news of Yang Liwei's space travel in 2003.

Over the past few years, Gui has been trained to use difficult equipment (设备) and do experiments in space.  However, the training way was a big problem for him.  "I felt very sick after the space training," he said.  "So I added more exercises, learned from other astronauts, and tried some of the training methods used by pilots.  Finally, my physical ability slowly improved. "

As a sports lover, Gui found happiness in training activities.  And because he had the habit of doing sports, he was able to keep up with this difficult training.  His spirit of not being afraid of difficulties in realizing his dream made him successful.  Although he wore glasses, he was able to become an astronaut.
