The chairman of the commune met them with a warm smile. "You have come at the right time ,"he said ."The harvest this year is very good. Of course we have tractors and combines. But we also need more men."

　　On arriving at the farm,they formed themselves into groups and started to work at once. The groups challenged each other to a friendly competition. By twelve o'clock they had overfulfilled their task.

　　The chairman was satisfied with their work. He told them about the commune's plan for the future. There would be more machines. Much more grain would be produced. People would live better. The place would look more beautiful. All the students found his words exciting.

　　"I should like to go on to the university.After I graduate from it,I shall be a teacher in the people's commune,"she answered."I shall do my best to teach the children. After school, I shall work in the fields with you."
