With much hope in her eyes ,the 16-year-old Chen Jing tells us of her wish," The examination for entering high school is around the corner. I hope I can pass the examination to become as tudent of Yiwu No.2 High School. "
Born paralyzed, the young girl can't walk or move like normal girls. Her parents, making the family's living on dickers in a village 4 kilometers away from Dachen Primary School where their daughter studies, have no time to take care of her. She is thus in the care of her mother's parents-Wu Huaman and his wife. Having for many years, Wu Huaman is working again now as a guard of Dachen Primary School, and lives in the small room of the school gate with his wife just for the sake of their granddaughter-inlaw, who needs care wherever she is.
At 5:30 every day ,Chen is woken up by her grandmother. She helps Chen to put on her clothes, wash her face and have reakfast. After that she takes Chen to the classroom. At noon, when the grandmother gets lunch ready, her grandfather goes to the classroom to bring her back for lunch. Now, busy preparing for the entry examination, Chen has only 10 minutes for lunch because she spends 20 minutes on the way. The procedure is the same in the case of supper: coming back from the classroom, going to the classroom for night study , returning home from the classroom. To her grandparents, that is not all . They must help her to sleep after she finishes the homework. I t 's 23:00 when they finish everything. As such, Wu Huaman and his wife have been busy all along for ten years ,without a day's rest.
In the talk with Chen Jing ,we learn she admires Zhang Haidi a lot , an outstanding representative of the handicapped in China . She dreams of living as normal children do and has the same wishes that they have: to be a DJ ,a translator ,or an accountant ,except that her wishes are more or less based on her own situation .
The examination for entering high school is around the corner . She hopes to enter Yiwu No . 2 High School ,which can become true as she is one of the top students in her class. Let 's give her our best wishes .
