Wang Anshi was such an excellent poet that he achieved great success in literature (文学). More than that, he was a great politician, too. At 21, he passed the examination and started to work as a local official in different places for nearly 20 years.
Later, he became the prime minister and carried out a series of reforms. Wang’s spirit of making changes made a big difference to many people. He advised the government to reduce farmers’ duty, such as, doing a land survey to correct land taxes (税) and lending money to farmers if they needed.
He also suggested setting up more schools to train talented people in different fields. These reforms succeeded for a while. But they harmed the interests of the upper classes and failed in the end. Russia’s great leader Vladimir Lenin praised him as the most inspiriting reformers in Chinese history.

【推荐3】Dads have Father’s Day. Moms have Mother’s Day. Kids have Children’s Day. But, do our grandparents have a special holiday? Yes, they do!
The Double Ninth Festival（重阳节）is a special day for older people in China. This holiday is on the ninth day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar. On this holiday, younger people usually show love and respect to older people.
There are many ways in which Chinese people express their respect. When an older person enters a room, everyone stands. People are introduced from the oldest to the youngest. When we present a book to an older person, two hands are used. Young people always offer their seats to older people on a crowded subway or bus.
Respecting older people is a tradition in China. That's because the Chinese know that older people have knowledge and experience that young people can learn. Chinese people are proud of being old.
In western countries, however, older people seldom think they are old. They are called “senior” instead of “old people”. They’d rather do everything themselves. Even after retirement, they take on hobbies, part-time jobs and new activities to keep their body working well.
Westerners respect their older people. too. Usually, seniors take trains and buses for free. They are given discounts in stores and restaurants.
But western seniors don’t often live with their children-they live alone. For holidays, the family usually gather at the grandparents’ home, and a great smile and a warm hug for their parents are enough for grown children to show their respect.
