第二节 阅读下面短文，并用英语回答问题(请注意每小题的词数要求)。
During the Jin Dynasty(266－420), there was a child called Che Yin. He was smart and loved to read. He grew up in a poor family and couldn’t afford lamp oil(灯油)to study at night. One night, he saw fireflies(萤火虫)outside his house and came up with an idea. To read the books, he caught some fireflies and put them in a cloth bag to use them as a light. It was said that he spent all of his summer nights reading like this.
Another child named Sun Kang lived during the same period. One night during winter, Sun used up all of his lamp oil. He was too tired to keep studying. When he suddenly woke up at midnight, he noticed the thick snow reflecting the moonlight. His first thought was “Oh, I can use the reflected light to read!” He still took out his books and read, even if it was very cold.
Both of the kids later became successful government officers. People were touched by their hard-working spirit. Their stories inspired(激励)us to work hard to live our life to the fullest.
