Jehdi and Hassan were businessmen and good friends.

One day they found themselves in a forest. They were tired so they sat down and Jehdi fell asleep.

As Jehdi slept, Hassan saw a wasp (黄蜂) coming from his friend’s nose. It flew toward a pine tree (松树), circled it three times, and then returned to Jehdi’s nose.

When Jehdi woke he said, “Hassan, What a dream! Imagine a big pine tree, like that one there. A wasp flies around it and its buzz (嗡嗡叫) seems to say, ‘You must dig here.’ I dig and I find a big box of gold.”

“Yes, a strange dream,” replied Hassan. “Why don’t you dig around that tree and see if it’s true?”

“My friend, it was just a dream and anyway it’s too hot to dig.”

Hassan said, “If you do not want to dig, I will. Sell your dream to me.”

“How much will you pay?” asked Jehdi.

Hassan agreed to pay 300 coins.

“Never have I made such a business deal. How na?ve (天真的) you are, Hassan!”

A new report says more and more international students are attending colleges and universities in the United States. It also notes a large increase in the number of international students from China.

These findings are from the latest Open Doors Report. The report documents the record number of international students in the United States during 2012, 2013 school year. It says more than seven hundred sixty-four thousand four-hundred such students were attending American colleges and universities during the last two years. That represents an increase of almost six percent than one year earlier.

On the other hand, the number of Americans studying overseas(海外) increased by one percent, which reached nineteen thousand this year.

The report says one hundred ninety-four thousand students at American colleges and universities were from China. That is an increase of more than twenty-three percent over the year before. Peggy Blumenthal, an expert of international education, described the effect of the increase in Chinese students.

"Now they have been coming for some time. But this year was the highest level ever." She says many Chinese families are able to pay for the highest-quality education for their children. The children mainly choose to study in America.

"We know many of them have enough income to be able to afford to send them anywhere in the world that they want to go. And for the most part, looking around the world, Chinese students still prefer to come to the United States as their choice."

Chinese students are not the only ones who want to attend American colleges and universities. After China, India sends the second largest number of students to the United States for higher education. India has about one hundred thousand students in American schools. South Korea is third with about seventy-two thousand students.

Why do so many foreign students study in the United States? Peggy Blumenthal provides one reason.

"The advantage America has is that we have a huge system and a very perfect system. So there are over four thousand universities and colleges in the United States. Among them are some top ones in the world, and what that tells us is there is still a lot of room to host international students."

Foreign students represent less than four percent of the total student population in American higher education.
