B（荣德原创）
Tang Shangjun, a 93­year­old man, retired(退休) from teaching in 1987. However, his role as a teacher didn't stop there.
In 1997, Tang returned to his hometown—Wuhan Village of Anhua County in Yiyang City, Hunan Province. He soon found that there were many left­behind children in the village and no one helped them when they had trouble with their homework. Many children even dropped out of school after losing interest in studies. Tang decided to offer after­school classes to the children in his own wooden house. And he did it all for free.
