【推荐3】Some people might think that young people are too young to know what they want. But people like Lu Kaigang prove them all wrong.

Lu, 23, a fashion model from China, grew up walking on the roads in rural Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region (自治区). Now, he walks on some of the largest fashion catwalks (T台) in the world.

“I have had a supermodel dream since I was 10 while I was still in primary school. I saw a fashion show on TV and I felt it was so cool to do that on the runway,” Lu said. Although Lu didn’t have much money or any professional training, that didn’t stop him from chasing his dream. Lu collected pieces of cloth from the factory he worked at and made them into costumes. In 2018, he started making videos of himself wearing his handmade costumes and posted them online. Lu has what money can’t buy: hard work and self-belief. “The early videos I posted didn’t get many likes,” Lu said. “But I believed what I was doing would be recognized by the world someday.”

Lu quit (辞职) his job at the factory and went back to his hometown to spend time learning how to be a supermodel. He also began to use other materials for costumes, like plastic bags and even blankets (毛毯) and kept posting videos of himself online.

About one year later, Lu’s hard work paid off and he became an online star. He’s not just on ordinary model. His one-of-a-kind clothes show off his talent and creativity, and his videos are mostly filmed on village dirt roads, adding a special and fresh backdrop (背景).

【推荐2】BEIJING—Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao has visited the "left-behind"(留守) children whose parents are working in cities before Children's Day.
During a visit to northwest China's Shanxi Province, Wen visited the home of Yang Saike, a primary school boy in a village of Xingping City. Yang, whose parents were working in Fujian, thousands of kilometers away, was cared for by his grandparents. His parents fail to go home even once a year. Wen talked with many children and asked them many questions about their schooling and life.
"You are so pretty," Wen said to Liu Mengqi, a seven-year-old girl living with her grandmother. Liu's parents were also working in the city.
"Have you been to school yet?" Wen asked two other girls.
"We are going to the pre-school class," said one.
"Mom and dad at home?" Wen asked. The children shook their heads.
"Children cannot see their parents very often, which is a new problem in the country-side. We should give them more care and love," said the premier.

【推荐3】“I sometimes get up at three or four in the morning and I surf the net.”

“I often check my email 40 times a day.”

“I often spend more than three hours at one time on the net.”

“I spend more time in chat rooms than with my ‘real-life’ friends.”

Do you know any people like this? They are part of a new addiction(瘾) called Internet addiction. Internet addicts(成瘾的人) spend at least 30-40 hours online every week. The use of the Internet can be an addiction like drug(毒品) use. People lose the control of the time they spend on the Internet.

For example, one college student was missing for several days. His friends were worried, and they called the police. The police found the student in the computer lab: he had been surfing the net for several days.

Studies show that about 6 percent to 10 percent of Internet users become addicted. And people worry about the teens because the Internet is changing the playing field for some of them. They spend more time in cyberspace than in the real world with friends and family.

【推荐3】There was once a university that made an announcement. It encouraged people to help scientists find a white marigold (金盏花). Most marigolds are either golden or brown, so it is very hard to find a white one. Some people tried, but they failed, so many people soon forgot the announcement.

Twenty years later, the university received a letter from an old woman. She sent 100 white marigold seeds along with the letter.

The woman was a fan of flowers. When she first read the university’s announcement 20 years ago, she got very excited like others. She thought she could grow her own white marigolds. But her children were against her decision. She knew nothing about seed genetics (遗传学), after all. So her dream of growing white marigolds was just a dream.

Still, the woman worked to make it happen. She planted some of the most common marigold seeds and took good care of them. A year later, when the marigolds came out, she chose one of the faintest (最暗淡的) flowers and took its seeds. She planted these seeds and waited another year for them to bloom. The next year, she again grew them and chose…
