[00:01.73]A few months later,
[00:03.14]Xu decided to return to the school
[00:06.39]but it was a hard life that was waiting for him
[00:10.67]There was little food and it rained
[00:13.71]all the time.
[00:15.63]Xu found it difficult to communicate
[00:18.22]with the students because their Putonghua
[00:22.10]was very poor.
[00:24.43]Also, they didn't know anything about the world
[00:27.47]outside their willage.
[00:29.81]Most of them had never heard of computers
[00:32.98]or the Internet
[00:34.61]and had never seen tall buildings.
[00:38.85]For the 22-year-old Xu,
[00:42.12]the biggest problem was the family
[00:45.24]were far away and he could not talk to them
[00:49.44]on the phone or write to them by mail too often
[00:54.24]However, even though he was lonely
[00:56.80]and the donditions were hard,
[00:58.98]Xu did his best and helped the village children
[01:02.28]in many ways.
[01:04.32]They can now understand Putonghua
[01:07.26]and even speak a little English.
[01:10.27]He also helped the village
[01:12.23]to build tow new classrooms.
