The year 2020 is a special one for China, as the Chinese government has set a goal of lifting all the people out of poverty(贫困)by the end of the year. To achieve this goal, one important task is to reduce the education gap(差距)between the poor countryside and the cities.
In recent years, the governments have worked hard to improve the education in poor areas. Schools have put great efforts onto improving education in these areas. More new schools have been built, and more money has been used to help students from poor families. Let’s have a look at how the students across the country have benefited(得益)from this.
