It was 6:00 on a Monday morning. With his books in his bag, 13-year-old James Mwangi was on his way to school, the Mcedo-Beijing school in a slum(贫民窟)in the Kenyan capital of Nairobi (肯尼亚首都内罗毕). This school was built in 2001 with the help of China, for children from poor families.

     After getting to school, Mwangi went straight to his class to do his class work. It is usual that pupils in this school prepare for their lessons before the teacher comes.

     To study in the school was once a dream for the poor boy. His mother made a living by washing clothes for others. Some days she took home nothing, and some days she could get about $ 3 — it was hardly enough to buy them a full meal for a day.

     Before joining the Mcedo-Beijing school, Mwangi was at home with his seven brothers, collecting garbage (垃圾). The school is giving these children hope for the future by providing    a chance to get education.

     “For me, education is the best gift,” said Mwangi.

     When we compare ourselves with great people, we may feel very ordinary (平凡的) and unimportant.
However, we must remember that those great people were extraordinary (卓越的). The world has more
than 6 billion people, so it is difficult for all of us to be extraordinary. What can we do? We can try to be
the best people that we can possibly be.
     ①I think this means that we need to be honest and hard-working. We also need to be open-minded and
kind to other people. Most importantly, we need to be ambitious (有雄心的). We need to always set goals
for ourselves and work hard to achieve these goals.
     Madam Curie and Thomas Edison were hard-working, kind and ambitious, and they worked hard to
achieve their goals. Curie gave her life to"ease(减轻) human suffering". Edison spent his life as an inventor.
He invented a camera that showed movement. Later people used cameras to make modem films.
     A famous writer from Ireland once wrote,"We are all in the gutter (社会底层) but some of us are looking
at the stars." ②I often come up with this when I am unable to achieve something. It reminds me that we
are all at a lower level and that we all have a higher goal to work towards. It makes me try to be the best
person that I can possibly be.
1. Is it difficult for all of us to be extraordinary according to the passage?
    ________________________________________________________________
2. What did people use cameras to do later?
    ________________________________________________________________
3. 翻译文章中①处。
