When millions of graduates left university campuses and became busy finding a job， 23?year?old Yu Yanqia of Lisu ethnic group， graduating from Kunming Medical University， had already made her decision to serve as a local medical worker in her hometown Nujiang Lisu Autonomous Prefecture in Yunnan Province.

Back in 2007， when Yu was a little girl， the formidable （可怕的） Nujiang River in her hometown was an insurmountable （不可逾越的） natural opening which separated her village from the outside world. Like other people living here， the 8?year?old girl and her fellow students had to use a pulley （滑輪） to cross the river down a steel cable to get to school every day. “I could feel the whispering wind in my ears， the thundering river below me and my quick heartbeat，” Yu said when recalling the experience of hanging over the river.

One day， a photo from the media showing her wearing red clothes and sliding across the river brought her under the national spotlight.With nationwide fundraising initiated， the first bridge was built over Nujiang River， near Bula Village Primary School， her school. From then on， Yu and her classmates no longer had to risk their lives just to get an education.

“It was like a beacon light， lighting up the dark road in my life， which drove me to study harder，” Yu said. In 2018， Yu entered the Second Clinical Medical College of Kunming Medical University with a score of 568， becoming the first child in her village to be admitted to college.

“The moment I became a college student， Ive decided to dedicate myself to my hometown，” she said.
