teacher.

Soon there he was again, back at his old desk. Valencia’s classmates 68 knew he
couldn’t afford the cost, but he still worked hard as before, which made them moved.
Valencia said he wanted to stay in school until he earned a master’s degree. However, it had
taken him 12 years to finish the community college, so he had an 69 way to go.
Valencia came from a poor family. His seven brothers and sisters didn’t go to college.
Valencia decided to be the first, although his 70 was later than the others. Valencia said he
got tired of telling himself he was going to go back. So he made it real.
“Although he was not so young, he was the most hard-working and active student in the
class,” says Grant Tovmasian. “He set a good example to other students and 71 them to
work hard.” Valencia told us with his story that study is a long business and that you are never too

The farming TV program Believe in the Land (《种地吧》) has been
winning the hearts of its young audience (观众). It has received over 30
thousand comments(评论)on Douban and has got 8.9 points out of 10. In
the show, 10 young people get t 72 as a team. They work hard for
190 days on a 9.5-hectare farm to grow 25,000 kilograms of crops .

But Believe in the Land stands out as it shows not only the beauty of country life, but also the hard
work behind it.
The young people started from scratch (从零开始)to make their own tools and furniture.
They lived in a small, old house near the fields, wore dirty clothes in the mud and worked from
sunrise to sunset.
“A 77 the young people didn't do it perfectly, their experience of working in the muddy
fields and unloading(卸下)tons of fertilizer (肥料)is moving,” wrote an internet user on Douban.
“Watching their hard work m 78 me understand the saying ‘No pains, no gains' more than
ever,” another audience wrote on Sina Weibo.

Making colorful art on wood
Many traditional woodcut prints (版画) are either black and white or
simple in color, but reduction woodcuts(绝版木刻)can show rich colors
like Western oil paintings.
The reduction woodcut is a kind of woodcut that uses one piece of
wood to make a colorful artwork. The artist cuts and prints different layers
(层) in order on the same piece of wood. Famous for its colors, the reduction woodcut was listed
as an intangible cultural heritage(非物质文化遗产) in Pu'er, Yunnan, in 2009.
Master's story

{#{QQABCYaUogAAAgBAAAgCAwWgCkAQkACCACoGBFAAIAIBwRFABAA=}#}
Leng Guangmian, 40, is a reduction woodcut artist. Leng started
learning the art at university in 2003. He said that making reduction
woodcut prints is just like an adventure. “Every time we cut a pattern on
the block(木块) and then print, we never know what it will be like in the
end." As he sees beautiful patterns layer by layer, he only gets more
excited, added Leng.
But finishing such work is not easy. He said that before cutting, he needs to plan for the whole
print and choose colors for different layers. A big print usually takes months to finish.
Leng hopes his artwork shows not only excellent woodcutting skills but also local culture and
life. "For my works, there are two series: the Tea Horse Road (茶马古道), since Pu'er is one of the
starting points of that road; and disappearing villages, "Leng said. “Many old villages in Pu'er
need rebuilding because of safety reasons, so I want to make people remember their beauty before
they are gone.”

Dear mum,
It’s high time we had a heart-to-heart talk.
I don’t think you understand my life. You think I should be studying all the time. I know you want me to find a good job when I grow up and that makes me feel quite pressed. I would like to have a wonderful time, too. You never think about funny things for me to do like music, sports and sightseeing. Two days ago, when I was watching a football game on TV, you asked me to stop and do my homework. After finishing my homework, still I wasn’t allowed to read my football magazines. You said I had to go to bed early. That was bad enough, and yesterday was the worst day. I bought some computer games, and put them in my bag so that you wouldn’t see them. I told you I had done my homework. I knew it was wrong to lie to you. Mum, I don’t quite like what you did to me! I really love you, but I wish you could try not to be so hard on me. I’m trying my best to be a good boy.
Love,
David

Strength of laboring（劳动）

Making colorful art on wood
Many traditional woodcut prints (版画) are either black and white or simple in color, but reduction woodcuts(绝版木刻)can show rich colors like Western oil paintings.
The reduction woodcut is a kind of woodcut that uses one piece of wood to make a colorful artwork. The artist cuts and prints different layers (层) in order on the same piece of wood. Famous for its colors, the reduction woodcut was listed as an intangible cultural heritage(非物质文化遗产) in Pu'er, Yunnan, in 2009.
Master's story
Leng Guangmian, 40, is a reduction woodcut artist. Leng started learning the art at university in 2003. He said that making reduction woodcut prints is just like an adventure. “Every time we cut a pattern on the block(木块) and then print, we never know what it will be like in the end." As he sees beautiful patterns layer by layer, he only gets more excited, added Leng.
But finishing such work is not easy. He said that before cutting, he needs to plan for the whole print and choose colors for different layers. A big print usually takes months to finish.
Leng hopes his artwork shows not only excellent woodcutting skills but also local culture and life. "For my works, there are two series: the Tea Horse Road (茶马古道), since Pu'er is one of the starting points of that road; and disappearing villages, "Leng said. “Many old villages in Pu'er need rebuilding because of safety reasons, so I want to make people remember their beauty before they are gone.”
