He picks up old bottles and paper from the streets and sells them. Many people know him — he has done this for over twenty years. Mr Sun does not spend the money on himself. He lives in a small room and wears old clothes. But he has given more than 100,000 yuan to poor students in his town. “Without school, these children have no future, so it is necessary to help them stay,” he says. “I had no chance to study, and I do not want them to lose theirs.” Over this long period, he has helped more than thirty students. Every month, he takes his money to the local school. He never writes down his name. The teachers only know that an old man comes with a small bag of coins. Last year, one of the students found out that the old man was Mr Sun. She went to his room, crying. “Your kindness has helped me for so many years,” she said. “I did not even know your name.” Mr Sun smiled. “You do not need my name,” he said. “Just study hard and help others later.” Many people in our town admire Mr Sun.

Our neighbour, Mrs Wang, was cooking when her little son suddenly could not breathe. He had eaten a piece of candy and it was stuck in his throat. Mrs Wang is a mother of two. A month before, she had taken a first aid class at the community centre.

The station was built in the last century. For thirty years, one man has kept it running. His name is Old Wu, and he is now sixty. The station looks old and small, but its work is important. Every three hours, Old Wu writes down the wind speed, the temperature and the rain. Then he sends the numbers to the mainland by radio. “It is necessary for ships to know the weather,” he says. “One wrong number can bring danger.” Old Wu came to the island when he was young. At that time, four people worked with him. One by one, they left, because life here is too quiet and too hard. In the end, Old Wu was the only one left. “It takes patience to do the same thing every day,” he says. “But I have got used to it.” Every morning, he walks around the island and watches the sky. He can tell when a storm is coming just by looking at the clouds. “It is wise of him to read the sky like a book,” a young worker says. Last year, a big storm hit the island. Old Wu sent out the numbers until the radio broke. Because of his work, hundreds of fishermen stayed safe. Now a young man has come to learn from him.
