　　Education plays a very important role in the modernization of our country. Yet according to recent statistics, there are over 2 million school-age children who have dropped out of school in poverty-stricken areas of the countryside. It is in this particular situation that the authorities carry out the “Project Hope”.

　　The projectis necessary tothe children in poor remote areas of our country. To begin with, poor children in backward and underdeveloped areas are likely to become drop-outs either because they cannot afford the tuition or because there is not any money to set up a school at all. Moreover, Chinais not likely to invest a huge amount of money in education to aid them since it is a developing country.

　　My suggestion is that people from all walks of life, with what efforts they can, donate money or books to poor children. More importantly, only by laying greater emphasis on the significance of establishing a better funded public education system can we guarantee the realization of the hopes of all the children in China.
