Li Lei is thirteen now. He began to study in a middle school two years ago. His home is in a small village， and it’s nearly five kilometers from his school. He has to get up early in the morning and run to school. He is never late for school. His father thinks Li Lei is too tired. He wants to borrow some money to buy a bike for him. Li Lei doesn’t agree because he knows his mother is always ill and the family spends a lot of money on medicine. He keeps running every day. He becomes stronger and stronger. He runs fastest in his class. Last week there was a sports meeting in his school. Li Lei ran faster than any other boy and got the first place in the boys’ 1，500 meters. Now he’s famous in the whole school. His classmates and teachers were very proud of him. He was happy， too. He ran home fast to tell his parents about the good news.
