B

After 13 years of struggling， he decided to become a farmer again.

Chen Zhuobin， known as A-Bin， was born in a village in Anhui Province. He walked out of the mountains for study when he was 19. Though he had a successful life as a Creative Director of an international agency in Shanghai， he couldnt shake away the anxiety reflected in his dreams. He dreamed several times a year about countless branch roads and he didnt know which one led home.

After many fierce mental battles， one day， A-Bin told his wife he wanted to go home. Instead of being surprised， his wife encouraged him to follow his heart. Under the support of his wife， A-Bin returned his hometown and built the Real Food Farm. “We dont?have any rare food on the Real Food Farm in Dabie Mountains. The world is filled with fakes （假貨）， leaving the authentic things too precious.” said A-Bin.

Instead of feedstuff， the domestic（家養的） animals on the farm were fed only with grains. For example， he fed fried soybeans to his cattle. Just as he said， “We eat in turn， because anything they eat will end up in our stomachs.”

Now as a farmer， A-Bin shook off the anxiety and tiredness from the intensive workload in the city， saying， “Only in the mountains can you feel coming to yourself. There isnt the smell of waste gas from cars， but the smell of sunshine when it penetrates the woods.”

A-Bins wife is a designer of clothing and accessories. Together， the couple live a life of“eating healthily and dressing well.” In a time when eating properly becomes a luxury（奢侈）in the urban life， its truly an invaluable treasure to return to the simplicity. “Life is a journey of finding the way，” said A-Bin.

Those dreams about branch roads have faded away， because he has found his own path.

24. Why did A-Bin go back to being a farmer？
