36
Ant Tribes about the life of some young people
37
flock (群集) to Beijing after
38
university,describes the graduates,like ants,as smart but
39
as individuals,drawing strfrom living together in communities.
The book,which is based
40
two years of interviews with about 600 low-income college graduates in Beijing, 41
in mid-September,about a month ahead of an announcement by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security that 74% of the 6.11 million new graduates from universities and colleges had been
42
by Sept.1.
The book’s chief editor,Lian Sir, tells that piece of statistic says 43 about the real situation for many of these graduates.“I am always
44
how many of these employed college graduates are leading a happy life,” Lian said.“I hope this book could offer a window on these graduates,whose stories are __45
known.”
The setting of the book is several so-called “settlement villages for college students” in the outskirts (市郊) of Beijing,where a large
46
of college graduates
47 .Most of these graduates work for 48 or medium-sized businesses, 49
less than 2,000 Yuan a month.They live together because it’s 50:
The rent in these communities is only around 350 Yuan a month.Many of them travel several hours a day for short-term jobs or job interviews.
Tangjialing,a small
51
20 kilometers from Tian’anmen Square,has around 3,000
52
villagers,but has become a
53
for more than 50,000 migrants (移民),most of whom
54
from universities or colleges all over the country.Lian describes the students’
55
as five or six-storey buildings built by local farmers with 12 rooms on each floor and two or three people crammed (挤) together in each room of about 10 square meters.Up to 70 or 80 people share the same toilet and kitchen.

When I was little, my family used to move frequently. Before I could even get
36
with my schoolmates, my family was on the move again. I became very
37
because of this.
But a girl with dark skin and long shiny hair
38
me. Her best characteristics are her openness and
39
. She is always smiling, like a beautiful sunflower following the sun. Without
40
I enjoyed being with her and soon we became good friends. As time went by, I gradually became a
41
girl. But this joyful period didn’t last long. We were admitted to different colleges. I felt like I had gone
42
to my always-on-the-move childhood. I felt
43
and helpless and I was afraid that I would
44
her as my best friend. She stayed calm and said to me: “Rain, you can achieve more than I do, so
45
to your dreams and make a big effort! Real friendship doesn’t fade and we will be best friends forever.” Maybe she didn’t realize what a great
46
she was to me at that time.
However, it turned out that my
47
were well-founded. I felt that the
48
between us was getting bigger and bigger. One day, she sent me a text message happily telling me that she had fallen in love with a handsome boy in her class.
I felt happy for her, but at the same time I was secretly worried about our friendship. I
49
her several times intending to tell her to think carefully about her
50
with the boy, but I got no more messages from her. I felt sad that perhaps our friendship would not
51
. I had almost given up hope
52
she visited me at my campus a week later. She looked
53
but was wearing the most beautiful smile. She gave me a big hug and said: “I’m sorry. I want to be myself and your friend forever!” We cried together,
54
the people walking past. She told me her sad story, and we knew we had gone back to how it was before.
Now I firmly believe that distance and time can’t
55
you from a friend. If you care enough about each other, friendship never fades.

36
. She was on the beach, looking up at the ball. She was amazed by its

, deep red in the middle,
38
fading into yellow. She could hear nothing but the
39
and the seagulls flying up above in the sky.
The atmosphere
40
her. After all she had been through, this is what she
41
. “It’s getting late,”she thought,“I must go home, my parents will be

where I am.”She wondered how her parents would react, when she got home after the three days she was

She entered she
49
. First,she went into the kitchen where she saw a(n)
50
written by her father. It said:“Dear Ellen,there is some coffee ready,I went
51
.” Ellen was her mother but-where was she? On the right side of the hallway was her
52
room. She went in. Then she saw her mother,lying on the bed sleeping. Her
53
looked so tired,as if she hadn’t
54
for days. She was really pale. Jenny just fell asleep beside her. When Jennifer woke up she found something
55
. She was in her cosy bed in her nightclothes.
It felt so good being back home. Suddenly she heard a voice.“Are you feeling better now, dear? You know you got us very, very scared.”
