21、   Jia Zuosheng, 27, used to work as a security guard (保安) at the library of Tsinghua University. But a few months ago, he became a college student in Lishan College in Shandong and he studies math there now. When hearing this news, many people were surprised. On school opening day, many reporters waited outside the school gate to interview him.

“I was born in a poor village in Shandong Province," said Jia. "Our village has never had a college student. Most boys work in town after growing up. I failed the National College Entrance Exam（高考）twice. Then I went to Beijing to find jobs. In the following years, I went on studying by myself while working.”

At the end of 2009, Jia found a job as a security guard at the library of Tsinghua University.“I cherished (珍惜) the job very much because it gave me a good chance to read books," Jia said.“I usually worked at night so I had plenty of time to study in the daytime.” When he had problems that he couldn't work out, Jia asked the students at Tsinghua for help. "My dream is to be a college teacher. So I need further education. That's the reason why I took the National College Entrance Exam again," Jia said. “I wish to educate students with my knowledge and love and help them enjoy true, kind and beautiful things.”

Jia's mother said Jia has always been independent（独立的）and knows what he wants. But she has other worries. "It's difficult to find such a good job at present as a library guard in Tsinghua University. I'm not sure if this is a right decision.” “I will never regret(后悔），”said Jia. "Everyone will have a new start. It's the end, and the beginning.”

23、   "I'm a big fan of the NBA." "The PM2.5 level is high today." "What's the Wi-Fi password for this restaurant?"

Do you often say or hear such sentences? Just to be clear: NBA is short for National Basketball Association. PM stands for particulate matter, and some say Wi-Fi stands for wireless fidelity.

Many of you will already know the meaning of these abbreviations(缩写词). Young people often mix them with Chinese language in their conversations. "I knew what the NBA was long before I heard its Chinese name," said Zhang Hangyu, 14, from Hunan. "The English word is easy to remember."

There has been some criticism(批评) of these words. Some people think they harm the purity (纯洁) of the Chinese language. "Some people worship(崇拜) the West crazily and use foreign words to show off," language expert Xia Jixuan told People's Daily.

Should we close the door to foreign words? "We can bring in foreign words and localize(将……本土化) them. That gives the Chinese language new life," said Yao Xishuang, a language official from the Ministry of Education.

Now, experts are working on official translations of popular foreign words. For example, PM2.5. is“细颗粒物”in Chinese.

24、   Clothes play an important role in our daily lives. They protect us from the strong wind in cold winter and keep us from the high heat in hot summer.
