阅读下面短文,用英语回答短文后的问题。
On a small hill in Huaping, Yunnan, there is a small school. However, over the past years, it has rewritten the fate of over 2,000 poor girls by sending them to universities.
Zhang Guimei is the headmaster of this school. She began teaching in Huaping—one of China's poorest areas—twenty years ago. The teacher wondered why many girls in her class would just one day stop coming to school. After some investigations (调查), Zhang learned that they were from very poor families. These girls were forced to work or get married at a young age. "We often say that we want every child to have a fair start," she said. "But these poor girls don't even have a chance to stand on the starting line. "
Zhang wanted to change this. She spent years trying to raise money. Finally in 2008, she set up the Huaping High School for Girls. It's China's first free public high school for girls.
Zhang gets up at 5 a. m. every day to turn on the lights on each floor of the teaching building. Many girls are timid (胆怯的), the headmaster explains. She wants them to feel safer on their way to classrooms. After years of tiring work, Zhang is now in poor health, but the school and the children matter more than anything else in her mind.
Zhang's story has warmed hearts all around China and inspired many to follow in her footsteps. Zhou Yunli was one of her students. After she finished university, she heard that the school that she once studied in was short of Maths teachers. She immediately returned to the school to teach. "Without Ms Zhang, I would be nobody," Zhou said with a smile. "When you become strong, you must remember to help others. This is what Ms Zhang taught us. "
1. What happened to over 2,000 girls from a small school in Huaping?
2. Why did Zhou Yunli return to the school to teach Maths?
3. What will you do after learning the story about Ms Zhang?
