As a volunteer teacher, I travelled a long way to a small village school in Longzhou, Guangxi. On my way there, I thought about the village, the school, and the children there. However, my heart sank when I arrived there. It wasn't what I expected. It didn't look like a school at all. The school had only 3 rooms, one for Grades 1, 2 and 3, and another for Grades 4, 5 and 6. There was a third one for me. 牋 The children welcomed me warmly on my first day. They asked me a lot of questions, and I told them stories and my life in Shanghai. The next day, I gave then a test to find out their level. To my surprise, although the test was very easy, over half of them failed it, yet they all wanted to learn new things. I knew they needed me. 牋 I am busy preparing lessons, and reading test papers every night. I enjoyed teaching these lovely and hardworking children, and I could see that they were making progress with my help. I have also learned a lot from them. I understand their lives better and we are now good friends. 牋 I have worked in Longzhou for a year now. I'm very happy, and the expeerience has been very useful for me. I love the small village and the children. In fact, I would like to continue working here. （1）In the passage, "my heart sank…"means that the writer????????? .
