　　Two Beijing students, one from a rich family and one from a poor one, exchanged roles last Sunday to experience the other's life.

　　Liu Wei, the "rich kid", spent his Sunday in his poor classmate Sun Changhu's home. He did what Sun does every day: cleaning the house, washing and sewing clothes, and then staring blankly, as Sun doesn't own any gadgets for entertainment like a DVD player or walkman.

　　Sun, on the other hand, experienced how rich kids usually spend their days - fishing, swimming, and surfing the Internet.

　　The two say that the experience gave them greater understanding of each other's lives, and they became close friends after the day.
