You may know the English letters A,B and C, but do you know there are people called ABC? You may like eating bananas. But do you know there is such a thing as “banana person”? How strange! Are these people from “another earth”? No, they are just Chinese people like you and me.

ABC means American-born Chinese. An ABC is a Chinese, but was born in the United States. Sometimes, people call an ABC a “banana person”. A banana is yellow outside and white inside. So, when a person is a banana, he or she is white inside thinking like a westerner and yellow outside looking like a Chinese. Do you know why? Usually, ABCs know little about China or the Chinese language .Some of them do not speak Chinese. Also, they are not interested in Chinese politics.

But if ABC cannot speak Chinese, can we still call them Chinese people? Yes, of course. They are Chinese. These people may be citizens of another country like the US, England and Canada, but they have Chinese blood. Their parents, grandparents or even great-grandparents were from China. They all have black eyes and black hair. But they are not Chinese citizens. They are not people of the People’s Republic of China. For example, we all know the famous scientist C.N. Yang (杨振宁).He got the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1957.Chinese people love him. But he is an American citizens.

Children grow quickly, especially their feet. But many families cannot afford new shoes each time. As a result, about 300 million children around the world go barefoot (赤脚), those children risk picking up diseases and parasites (寄生虫) from the soil.

Kenton Lee, an American, has a solution for those barefoot kids --- a shoe that grows with the child. He explains how the shoe works and how it is able to last so long. “It grows in three places: the front, the sides with velcro (尼龙搭扣) and the back with a buckle (扣环). It can last up to five years. The bottom is made of compressed rubber(压缩橡胶), and the top is high-quality leather. The shoes come in two sizes: small that fits children aged 4 to 9 and large for children aged 9 to 14.”

Lee says he got the idea for the shoe while working as a volunteer in Kenya. “There were many children with too small shoes for their feet, but they were too poor to buy a new one. So they had to cut open the front of the shoes to let their toes stick out. I want to do something to help them, so I invent these shoes.”

Up to now, they have sent more than 50,000 pairs of shoes to 70 countries. A pair of shoes, he says, gives a child not only protection, but also self-worth. It’s a small invention but really does make a big difference in these children’s life.
