Jia Zuosheng, 27, used to work as a security guard (保安) at the library of Tsinghua University. But a few months ago, he became a college student in Lishan College in Shandong and he studies math there now. When hearing this news, many people were surprised. On school opening day, many reporters waited outside the school gate to interview him.

"I was born in a poor village in Shandong Province," said Jia. "Our village has never had a college student. Most boys work in town after growing up. I failed the National College Entrance Exam（高考）twice. Then I went to Beijing to find jobs. In the following years, I went on studying by myself while working."

At the end of 2009, Jia found a job as a security guard at the library of Tsinghua University."I cherished (珍惜) the job very much because it gave me a good chance to read books," Jia said."I usually worked at night so I had plenty of time to study in the daytime." When he had problems that he couldn't work out, Jia asked the students at Tsinghua for help. "My dream is to be a college teacher. So I need further education. That's the reason why I took the National College Entrance Exam again," Jia said. "I wish to educate students with my knowledge and love and help them enjoy true, kind and beautiful things."

Jia's mother said Jia has always been independent（独立的）and knows what he wants. But she has other worries. "It's difficult to find such a good job at present as a library guard in Tsinghua University. I'm not sure if this is a right decision." "I will never regret(后悔），"said Jia. "Everyone will have a new start. It's the end, and the beginning."

Jack is a twenty-year-old young man. Two years ago, when he finished high school, he found a job in a shop. Usually he works until ten o'clock in the evening. He is very tired when he gets home. After a quick supper he goes to bed and soon falls asleep. His grandma who lives downstairs is satisfied with him.

One day, on his way home, he met Mary. They were both happy. He invited the girl to his house. She agreed happily. He bought some fruit and drinks for her. And they talked about their school, teachers, classmates and their future. They talked for a long time.

"Have a look at your watch, please," said the girl. "What time is it now?"

"Sorry, something is wrong with my watch," said Jack. "Where's yours?"

"I left it at home."

Jack thought for a moment and found a way. He began to stamp his foot on the floor. "Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The sound woke his grandma up. The old woman shouted downstairs, "It's twelve o'clock in the night, Jack. Why are you still jumping upstairs?"

Amy was a sweet little girl，but she often wasted time preparing instead of acting. In the village，Mr. Smith owned a store that sold {#blank#}1{#/blank#}fruits，including seasonal berries. One morning，he told Amy，I saw some blackberries on Mr. Green's {#blank#}2{#/blank#} today. He said anyone could have them. I will {#blank#}3{#/blank#}you 13 cents per kilogram for all you pick for me. "

Amy was excited about the idea of earning {#blank#}4{#/blank#} to help her mom. She ran home to get a basket {#blank#}5{#/blank#}，thinking about how much money she would earn if she picked 5 kilograms. After finding out that she would earn 65 cents，she {#blank#}6{#/blank#}to dream bigger. She imagined{#blank#}7{#/blank#} she would do with a dollar and fifty﹣six cents if she picked a dozen kilograms. It took her a while to dream bigger. Then，it was almost lunchtime，so she didn't leave home{#blank#}8{#/blank#} the afternoon. 

As soon as lunch was over，she took her basket and {#blank#}9{#/blank#} to the farm. Some boys were there before lunch and picked all the blackberries. She could not find half a kilogram to fill her basket. Then she thought {#blank#}10{#/blank#} her teacher's advice："Do your task at once；then think about it. One doer is worth 100 dreamers. "
