广西河池市环江县2020届九年级上学期英语期末检测试卷(含听力音频)
Ten years ago, Lu Xiaofang was one of millions of young Chinese women who left their rural homes to find work in cities. Now, the 30-year-old woman has returned to her village in Shangshui County, Henan Province. She has built a business in the village that makes shopping bags. She can live with her family, and it's easy to hire workers there. but the most important reason is that she can help the village women to get rich.
In 2011. she set up the first factory, using the sewing skills she learned while working in Jiangsu Province. She owns nine factories now and hires more than 300 young women from nearby villages.
The bags are sold to supermarkets, such as Wal-mart and Whole Foods. Profit (利润) on a shopping bag is just pennies, but a fast worker can earn 150 yuan a day, nearly 4,000 yuan a month. That's less than the pay in cities, but they enjoy living with their children and parents. That's why they want to work in the factories nearby.
For many years, young people have left the countryside because of poverty(贫穷). Now they are harvesting opportunities at home, attracting many companies to start businesses and build better lives.
"In Shangshui County, more than 110,000 people have found jobs in the ir h ometowns, and 20,000 have been lifted out of poverty in the last few years. But it's far more than making people rich. It allows villagers to stay near their family. There are fewer children and old people left behind in the countryside." said a leader of the county.
