For the most part Chinese people are friendly, easygoing and optimistic. They are curious and unusually patient and they are also the hardestworking people I have ever met.In China, family is everything. In my English classes when the students were asked what they would do if they only had a few hours to live, most students told me how they would spend their last few hours with their families and parents. Many times the subjects in the classes center on families and friends. I teach many students a year, talking to them freely. The cost of living here is very low pared with that of the US. The city of Xiang Fan I live in isnt large and I live better. Nonimported (非进口的) foods are very cheap, so are clothing and articles of everyday use. The cost of public transportation is very low, too. Chinese value education. However, it is reported that many children cant afford the expenses of schooling and are forced to leave school in some poor areas in China. But they organized Project Hope many years ago. It creates conditions for the poor children to go back to school. In my opinion, Project Hope is of great importance to the development of the rural education.When we read news of China in the west, rarely, if ever, will we see anything mentioned of the positive changes China has gone through.
