  You Mi, a lovely and confident 17-year-old student, is the first Chinese high school student to appear on the cover of the popular young adults’ fashion magazine Seventeen.

  “You is IN,” said Wang Lihua, Editor-in-Chief of Seventeen.“You is active and mature(成熟的)because of her knowledge on everything from academic studies,to books on art, to movies.We found she’s the very style we’re looking for to represent young people’s attitudes.”

  You also impressed Wang with her fluent English when they first met last year.As the hostess of an English broadcasting programme at the High School Affiliated to Renmin University,she is always praised for speaking English almost like a native speaker.“I’ve built up my English by watching thousands of English DVDs since I was 10,” she explained.

  But for her, watching isn’t enough.Last year,while in Senior 1, You met a talented boy who showed self-made DV movies at the English Corner in her school.

  But this is not the only field she wants to master.Despite being a science student, she likes art, literature and fashion design very much.

  “There are people who can be artists, there are people who edit books,and there are people who become film producers.But I just hope to mix all the things up!” she said.“There is an old saying I believe:Chance favours only the prepared mind.”
