Liu Wei is very famous in China because he can play the piano with his toes（脚趾）.

    One day when Liu Wei was only 10 years old, he played a game with some friends. He lost both his arms because of electricity(电).

    Liu Wei was very sad when both his arms were cut off after the accident.（事故） But soon he had to make a choice. (选择) "For people like me, there were only two choices. One was to give up（放弃）all the dreams. The other was to work hard without arms to live an excellent life." says Liu Wei.

    Liu's dream was to be a pianist. He had a wonderful performance（演奏）on China's Got Talent. He played the beautiful Marriage D'amour（《梦中的婚礼》）with his two feet on the piano.

    Liu Wei learned to play the piano with his feet. And teaching himself to play the piano with his feet was very hard. Many times he wanted to give it up, but his parents went on encouraging（鼓励） him and he kept playing the piano.

    Maybe you can not believe that Liu Wei is able to play well only with his toes. Many people were deeply touched and very excited when they watched his performance.

    Who's building the new China? It's not the factory owners or the business men and women of China. It's someone else. We see them every day. They work day and night in the terrible working conditions and weather. They build the roads, the theatres, the cinemas and the supermarkets, They even clean up our rubbish. They are China's migrant workers(民工).

    More than 140 million workers have left their homes in the countryside to look for jobs in big cities all over China. They hope to be rich, but they realize they have many difficulties in making enough money. And one of the difficulties that these workers have is the discrimination(歧视)from the people in cities. Migrant workers are living far away from those who they love. Yes, they dress differently, they speak differently, and they have different habits, but they work hard. The people in cities treat them as outsiders, and most governments don't want to give them medical care and public schooling for their children. If China hopes to move into the future, many things need to change. The first is discrimination！We need to stop our discrimination！They may not make as much money as some people do in cities, but they are good honest people just trying to survive this game of life. These workers are very important and necessary to China's economic(经济)development and have become an important force for the change of Chinese society. They are building the new China, so we should help them.
