However, problems appear. One of these problems is that it is difiicult for these children to get
education in cities.
Luckily, there are some free schools for them, but they are not enough. Ten-year-old Li Xin is
one of the lucky girls who get a chance to study in one of these schools. Although she has to spend
about two hours and change buses twice, she is very happy. As a child from a migrant worker's
(外来务工人员) family in the city, finally she has been given the chance to study.__1__, these free
schools are their best choice, because they can have free classes, textbooks, uniforms and meals in
the school for two years.
But there is a long way to go, __2__, because running a school is not easy and needs lots of money.
A school officer said they needed at least one million yuan to run the school.
"Luckily, some people and companies donate money, used books and a lot more other things to
help us. Also some people work as teachers for free." He added.
In one word, both the government and the people keep improving the whole country's education
either in countries or in cities. Don't you think the children nowadays are luckier than their parents
were? Anyhow, we must try to give them an equal chance to get better education so that we can
make our society a harmonious (和谐) one.
B. The flee schools for children from migrant worker's families are not enough
C. For children like Li Xin who don't have enough money for school
