How much money do you need every month, 500 yuan or 700 yuan? Some may need more to buy birthday presents, fast food, ice cream and comic books. But for Zhen Xing, 200 yuan is enough each month. “I only eat fried potato slices and rice,” said Zhen. “Meat is too expensive for me.”

Zhen, a 15-year-old girl, is a middle school student in Beijing. Every day, Zhen gets up at 5:30 am and rides her bike for 20 minutes to get to school. She studies hard, and even reads books during breaks! Her parents are migrant (移民) workers. They came to Beijing from a village in Henan two years ago. Her father now works as a cleaner and gets 1,200 yuan every month. Her mother has no job. Like many teenagers, Zhen has a lot of homework, but that is not all her work. During the week she helps her mom cook. On weekends, she helps wash clothes.

Zhen said she wanted to be a doctor when she grew up. “I watched TV and found out there are many people with AIDS in China. They really need help,” said Zhen. But she was afraid of having to leave school. Zhen didn’t go to school for one year five years ago. Fortunately, now all the children can go to school for free in China. “I won’t worry a lot about it anymore,”said Zhen happily. “I’m trying my best to study hard to be a good student at present and a good doctor in the future.”
