Li Jianwen carries his schoolbag and prepares to leave for the Dayandong Primary School in Dayandong village of Guzhai Mulao township in Liucheng county, Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, Sept 4, 2017. The 9-year-old boy climbs two mountains and walks one and a half hour to reach his school every day. The village has about 100 households and 360 villagers. Since last year, all students over the third grade have been transferred to the town, leaving Li Jianwen alone at the primary school. Pan Shanji, the school teacher, once worried whether Li Jianwen would keep going to school, but Li proved that he could not only stick to it but also study hard. [Photo/Xinhua] |
