1．Last night one of my Chinese friends took me to a concert of Chinese folk music.The piece which was played on the erhu especially moved me.The music was strangely beautiful ，but under the beauty I sensed a strong sadness and pain.The piece had a simple name，Erquan Yingyue （Moon Reflected on Second Spring），but it was one of the most moving pieces of music that I've ever heard.The erhu sounded so sad that I almost cried along with it as I listened.Later I looked up the history of Erquan Yingyue，and I began to understand the sadness in the music.
    The music was written by Abing，a folk musician who was born in the city of Wuxi in 1893.His mother died when he was very young.Abing's father taught him to play many musical instruments，such as the drums，dizi and erhu，and in the year of 1910，Abing was known for his musical ability.However，after his father died，Abing's life grew worse.He was very poor.Not only that，he developed a serious illness and became blind.For several years，he had no home.He lived on the streets and played music to make money.Even after Abing got married and had a home again，he continued to sing and play on the streets.He performed in this way for many years.
    Abing's amazing musical skills made him very popular during his lifetime.By the end of his life，he could play over 600 pieces of music.Many of these were written by Abing himself.It is a pity that only six pieces of music in total were recorded for the future world to hear，but his popularity continues to this day.Today，Abing's Erquan Yingyu e is a piece which all the great erhu masters play and praise.It has become one of China's national treasures.Its sad beauty not only paints a picture of Abing's own life but also makes people recall their deepest wounds（傷口） from their own sad or painful experiences.

2．Dmitry Doronin，a doctoral student from Russia，is keen（熱衷的） to share his experience in remote villages in Zhejiang with his 1.4 million followers online.
    Since Dmitry started to live in the countryside last August，the 32-year-old has created hundreds of video clips that record the relaxing lifestyle in Hengzhang village，Lishui city."The rice is grown in the fields together with fish，which helps to increase local agricultural （農(nóng)業(yè)的）products，" said Dmitry，while introducing products from Hengzhang village on the popular Chinese short-video platform Douyin.Besides filming videos，Dmitry also enjoys working with farmers in the fields，doing activities such as planting vegetables and feeding chickens.

    "Thanks to his videos，it seems that more tourists have come to visit our village，"says 72-year-old Pan Xianyu，who is very pleased to see the great changes in her hometown.
    Dmitry loves his country life. " In the countryside，you can enjoy yourself in the traditional way of life and understand this country better，"he says.

3．Archer Calder is a high school student from America.His younger sister Della was born with intellectual disabilities（智力殘疾）. （1）因?yàn)檫@個(gè)病，她在說話和閱讀上有很大困難。 Archer was never able to talk with Della.It has always been his dream to help his sister communicate with others.
   Archer used to search online for apps that might help Della express her feelings and needs. （2）However，he felt upset because the available apps were quite expensive. And they didn't offer what he wanted.Archer loved computer programming，so he decided to develop his own app.That was how Freespeech was born.
   When using Freespeech，users can see different buttons（按鍵） with pictures on the screen.Each picture stands for a word. （3）When a button is pressed，the word will be read out loud. Users can make sentences to communicate by pressing different buttons in order.It's really simple to use.
   To improve his app，Archer sometimes asks for help online.For example，when he found Della deleted his program by mistake，he asked how to stop that happening again on the Internet. （4）其他程序員給了他一些有用的建議來解決這個(gè)問題。
   Now，Archer still keeps working on the program，not only for Della，but also for those in the same situation as her.What's more，he makes his app completely open and free，which is different from other apps. （5）He is very proud that he can provide help for more people in need through his work.
