能力拔高题
When we talk about "making a difference", we usually think of famous people like scientists or leaders. But in fact, many ordinary people are changing the world in their own small ways.
Li Mei is a primary school teacher in a mountain village. Ten years ago, she found that many students in her school couldn’t afford to buy storybooks. "Books can open up their eyes to the outside world," she thought. So she started to collect old books from her friends and relatives. At first, she only got a few books, but soon more people heard about her idea and began to send books to her.
Now, Li Mei has set up a small library in her school with over 5,000 books. She also reads stories to the students every afternoon. "These books have changed the students’ lives. Some of them even want to be writers in the future," Li Mei says proudly.
