Who are the four people What do they do
Wu Wei, artist
Su Ning, manager
Liu Hao, engineer
Fang Yuan, doctor
A. Millie has read an article on Sunshine Daily. It introduces four people who are outstanding in their fields in Sunshine Town. Here is the article.
"Wu Wei is a born artist," said his best friend.
"He is quiet and doesn't like to talk much, but his work shouts!" Wu Wei, the young artist, has impressed the whole country with his creative work. His sculptures for Sunshine Town Square have won high praise from the art community. "I want to share the best art with people, so I'm always searching for something better or different. This in itself is great fun," he said.
Su Ning gave up her job as an accountant five years ago and started to work for the sales department in a big company. "I'm active and energetic, and I love working with people. However, in my last job, I could only work with numbers day after day. That made me unhappy." Su Ning is now the general manager of the company. "Life is like a race. You either take the lead or fall behind. I'm ready to take on new challenges any time," she said.
Liu Hao is the chief engineer of the high-speed railway connecting Sunshine Town to Tianjin.
"To us, a miss is as good as a mile. We can't afford to make any mistakes," said Mr Liu. "All of us know that it's necessary to pay attention to every detail." "He's serious and well organized," one of his team members said. "He always works to high standards, but he's modest and easy to work with."
Fang Yuan, head of Sunshine Hospital and a pioneer heart surgeon, is kind and patient. "As a doctor, you can't be too careful," she said. "Carelessness will be a disaster not only to ourselves but also to patients." "She's always willing to work extra hours," said another doctor. In fact, Doctor Fang often does operations for about ten hours a day. She has devoted most of her time to her work. All the people in the town respect her.
