我叫苏小妹
我在农村长大， 今年18岁
初中毕业后就 来到深圳了
其实，我想继续上学
但是我的家里人说 去城市赚钱比较好
我在工厂里工作
我们做便宜的手机
我每天重复同一 个动作，很无聊
每天工作十个小时， 星期六也要工作
只有星期天可以休息
我们都住在工 厂旁边的宿舍
在公司的食堂吃饭
老家的朋友都羡慕 我可以在深圳生活
但是我们工厂离 市中心比较远
所以我们很少有 机会在深圳玩
不过，每个星期天我 会做公交车去市中心
和我的好朋友一起去
我们喜欢逛街, 有时 候也会买漂亮的衣服
我一个月的工资3000块
对我来说这是很多钱
比我爸爸妈妈 赚的要多得多
虽然又累又无聊
但是我觉得这个 工作比当农民好
我当然不想一直做 这么无聊的工作
我的梦想是当老师
希望以后有机会实现

My name is Su Xiaomei
I grew up in the countryside, and I'm now 18 years old
After graduating from junior middle school I came to Shenzhen
Actually, I wanted to keep studying
But my family said it was better to go to the city to make a living
I work in a factory
We make cheap mobile phones
I repeat the same action over and over every day, it's so boring
We work ten hours a day, including on Saturdays
We can only get some rest on Sundays
We all live in dormitories next to the factory
And eat in the company's dining hall
My friends from back home envy that I get to live in Shenzhen
But our factory is far from the city centre
So we rarely get a chance to have fun in Shenzhen
However, every Sunday I take the bus to the city centre
Going with a good friend of mine
We like look around the shops and sometimes buy pretty clothes
My monthly salary is 3000 yuan
For me that's a lot of money
Much more than my mum and dad can earn
Even though it is tiring and boring
I still think this job is better than working on a farm
Of course I don't want to do such a boring job forever
My dream is to be a teacher
I hope in future I have the chance to realise this dream
