1、34.Helping the Remote Village援助山村A year ago, the famous astronaut received an invitation by airmail from a remote village. Intending to sniff some fresh air, he and his interpreter paid a fortnight visit there. It was a privilege for them to be there, but they were shocked by what they saw. The trac

Besides, their school had no roof and platform, and the students had no concept of clicking a computer at all. The
