Piper catches people’s eye not only for its job, but also for its look at work. With a pair of ski glasses, ear muffs(耳罩) and boots(靴), the hard-working dog looks very cool.

“Where there is a will, there is a way.” Perhaps not many students can understand this better than 22-year-old Michael Ha. Because of his story of success, he has become an example to many young people.

Michael Ha was born in a very poor family. His parents worked in Vietnam before they moved to Britain in 1980. They couldn’t find work in Britain because they spoke little English. The whole family had to live on benefits (救济金) and they lived in a small house in Hackney, a poor area in East London. Growing up was not easy for Michael, but he never gave up.

At the age of 10, he set his heart on going to Cambridge University. It was not easy, either. Michael studied at a school, which used to be called “the worst school in Britain”. However, young Michael made up his mind to try his best, no matter what kind of school he was studying at. The smart boy studied very hard and did well in every subject at school. Once he made a bet(打赌) with his friend to learn further math. As a result, after spending just four months teaching himself from a textbook, he got an A in AS-level further math.

Now Michael is the star medical student at St. John’s College, Cambridge and has just won an award(奖) for his excellent grades. He hopes he will be an inspiration for other young people from disadvantaged backgrounds.

Answer the questions according to the passage.

1.How old is Michael now?

2.Where did Michael’s parents work before 1980?

3.What does Michael study in Cambridge University?

4.When did Michael want to go to Cambridge University?

5.What does Michael hope?
