International Classmates,

　　Hi, there．I'm Liu Wei．I'm a Chinese teacher at international school in Beijing．We have kids from all over the world here．In some ways our school is a different from other schools in China．For example, the pupils don't wear uniforms．Let me tell you about my favourite junior high school students．

　　Matt comes from New York．He loves rap music．When he walks between classes he always wears headphones．His classmates are afraid of him because he's big for his age and he's really noisy! In his free time he watches action films and practices Kung Fu．Today he's entering Kung Fu competition．Good luck, Matt!

　　Brad is one of Matt's classmates．He is a very quiet boy．He was born in Sydney, but his parents are from Poland．He likes speaking Polish and English when he's at home．Brad gets very angry when people can't understand him! Brad's favourite sport is swimming．He wakes up early and trains every day before school．

　　Lucy is another one of my favourite student．She's a tall, beautiful girl from London．She's a good student and she's always studying．Sometimes she can't sleep because she thinks too much about her lesson! Lucy loves Beijing, but she doesn't like the summer．She says it's too hot! She wants to study medicine when she leaves school．I hope she'll be successful!

　　David Brenner came from a poor family．When he finished his school, he was given a wonderful present．“Some of my friends got new clothes and a few rich boys even got new cars．” he remembered, “My father reached into his trousers pocket and took something out, I held out my hand, and he let my present drop into it——a nickel!”

　　“Dad said to me．Buy a newspaper with that．Read every word of it．Then turn to the classified section and get yourself a job．Get into the world．It’s all yours now!”

　　“I always thought that was a great joke my father had played on me until a few years later when I was in the Army, sitting in a foxhole, and thinking about my family and my life．It was then that I came to know that my friends had got only new cars, or only new clothes．My father has given me the whole world．What a great present!”
