At the beginning of 2009，Li Guilin and his wife Lu Jianfen were honored（授予……榮譽(yù)）as “People Who Moved China in 2008” in this annual（一年一次的）event．This event was started by CCTV in 2002．

Li，42，and Lu，41，were horn in Han families and grew up in Ya'an City．In 1990，Li visited Erping Village（二坪村）in Liangshan of Sichuan Province，he was surprised at how backward（落后）it was．People there lived a rather poor life．The children seldom went out of the village．Li decided to teach in that village at once．

The children have to climb five wooden ladders to reach the primary school of Erping．They spend the week there before returning home for the weekend．“Walking on the wooden ladders is really dangerous．You can just put half of your foot in the narrowest place．Behind the ladders is the deep valley（山谷）．”

A year later．a(chǎn)s the number of students increased，Li Guilin began to look for a new teacher．When the summer vacation was almost over，he couldn't find one yet．So he persuaded（勸服）his wife Lu Jianfen to join him．

Till now，they have been teaching in the village for more then 18 years．Over the past years．they have taught l49 students，22 of them were from the schools of other areas because of the two kind teachers．

“I’m the son of farmers，” says Li，“I know that education is the best way for a poor mountain area to change．”The couple（夫婦）will continue working at this school to help more children walk out of the mountains into happy and bright futures．
