>>Our Story

1. The hero: Han dexiang / Student Jin Edit

Previously, we interviewed Han dexiang. He told his experience of regulating the sand, which

moved us a lot.


The early of 1980s, due to unlimit cutting the desert got worse, gradually influencing

people's life. After the sandstorm, the sand stopped the door. People tried hard to open the

door. The more worse is that the sand covered the land and the plants were rooted. Looking

at this, Mr. Han decided to regulate the sand.


In 1981, Mr. Han was first to apply for regulating the sand. His own power was not

enough, so he asked for support from the nation. The government allowed him to lead the

students to plant. Only that year, he planted nearly 40000 trees, but the tree could not

grow without water. So with the power department he made two machines. One was 43m

another was 97m. They were supplied with the power department. The tree was planted but

still need the people to look after. He was busy but who else is suitable? This time his wife

stood up. He was very happy.


One afternoon, Mr. Han got the biggest shock---the insect disaster which ruined his hard

work. He had to sell out all the trees, though suffered from the drawback, he never gave

up to start again. He found out that the xinjiang tree is hard enough to get the insect. So

he again planted. Gradually he got the experience with planting 4.5 hectares.


It was happy for him that he got the metal. At the 30 th anniversary celebration, wangzhen

awarded him bronze medal for his progressed people. Dengxiaoping gave him a gold medal

for his national progressed individual. He once met Mr. Han, encouraging him to continue.


Mr. Han is our model, his achievements are enormous. When we leave, Mr. Han shake his

hand: you must continue my career, preventing ningxia from the wind and sand. I trust you

can make it. I reply: ok, we won't let you down, we must realize your dream.

2. Model Han dexiang / Student Feng Edit

Mr. Han is born in the gaoren town pingluo village in ningxia province. At his youth, he once

did a proud thing for ningxia. He is the model for our generation. We need to learn and

carry on his spirit.


Mr. Han started to plant the tree in 1981, owing to over herd, the huanghe river---

previously at the quanziwan river, result in the desert. At that time no people regulated it

with sense. That place was occupied by the desert with 100 kilometers around. People

cooked without the wood, herd eating without the grass. They were skinny. The land was

replaced by the desert. The harvest was bad with no attention from the government. When

the Mr. Han had the idea about planting the trees. He bought the seed and rooted himself.

In 1981, he planted more than 40000 trees with the government support and himself. The

machine did he make himself. The power and water was supplied, so the machine was good.

The overall amount was 56000. He made a fence keeping the animals away. The total area

was 500 mu. The main plant was shebang—one plant anti-dry and windsand.


In 1990, more than 60000 trees were cut in large scale due to the insects.


In the process, Mr. Han met many problems, and then his economy was not quite rich.

Maybe he has to loan the machine. After planting, he once returned 2002 all his loan. In

1992 –1993 he used a plane to plant. It is a pity that in 1997 he gave all his hard work

with 50000 change up. I estimated it is not only 50000, he is so angry.


In the process of planting the trees, he also got two medals. One is bronze and one is gold.

The gold one was rewarded by dengxiaoping. In the planting, he invested for 170000, but

all was a failure. To refund the loan, he worked, suffered from the drawbacks. He took

the work as pleasure with the purpose firmly. In order to open the mountain, building the

furniture and house, he made the money for the old and went on happily.

3. The story of Mr. Han / Student Zuo Edit

Today, teacher led us to Mr. Han. He lives in gaoren town, which is far away from us. In

order to save the time, the teacher rent the car. We started.


In the beginning, we didn′t know who Mr. Han is. The teacher told us he is a hero by

planting many trees in the desert and eliminating the hurt to the farmland from the desert.

Listening to the introduction from the teacher, we admired him.


With the time going, we come to his house. Now he is over 60. Tough aged, he is still

healthy. He welcomed us with fruits.


Facing this hero, we had a lot of words and questions. We sat next to him listening to his

experience.


Previously, the grandfather lived near the desert. He planted some corp to support his own

family. There is always the sandstorm around the desert. When it is coming, his plants are

always covered by the sand. Sometimes it is even rooted by it. He founded that it is not

only his own plants getting hurt, but also many plants were ruined. So the idea to plant the

trees for the sand occurred.


He planted the trees not only for preventing the desert hurt and make money, but also it

was his habbit. He took it as a pleasure. With the positive attitude, he started the action.

He spent a lot of money to loan from the bank, buying many tools for the trees and roots.

He started himself to plant the trees. At the beginning, the villagers didn't understand.

They took him as stupid. Even some of them ruined his tools on purpose or herded at the

side of the trees. Some of the trees were ruined. After the drawback, he still silently

worked, with his confidence didn′t shake. Mr. Han's family supported his regulation. He got

encouraged from the family's support. With the effort of Mr. Han, the bare desert was

green.


But things went bad. One of the tree was bitten by insects. Many places transported the

goods to the homeland. The timber on the way here took some eggs which breed fast

became insects which hurted the trees. These are called tianniu.


After the big part of the tree was ruined, he only had some trees left. With some money

he refunded all the money for the bank. The natural disaster never affected the confidence

of the planting. He used new trees, such as the baiyang tree, xinjiangyang. This trees not

only have a higher live rate, but also prevent the insect damage and can live in the desert

environment.


Several year after, his trees got bigger and bigger. They became the guardians for the

homeland because they preven the desert damage. People found out since the trees were

planted, the sandstorm was less, the plants were not longer covered by the desert. The

villagers started to change the image of Mr. Han, gradually understood his hardness.

His story spreaded in the homeland. He got support from the government and homeland

support and encouragement. Some staff in the company and school helped him to plant. So

our first hero became Mr. Han.


After several years, Mr. Han ‘s story spread to the nation and to dengxiaoping. He was

moved and rewarded Mr. Han the medal.


Back to the homeland, he became famous. Mr. Han planted the trees so that the

homeland′s soil became richer and got a forest for the fortune. For sure, he did good for

his family. Now he got too old to plant the trees. He should enjoy the old year at home,

but he didn't forget about the homeland and his trees. During his leisure time, he always

wants to look at his trees.


When we left, we didn't forget to see his trees. Where is the desert? Now there are trees

standing. looking far, a part is green.


This is Mr. Han's history, we cannot forget Mr. Han and his firmness.

4. The change of the desert / Student Zuo Edit

When I am young, I come to the desert by bus. At the road near the desert, there are

many places covered by the sand. The car is not convenient on the road, the edge of which

was also covered, though no sand, no trees.


I also remember that before taole desert was very bare. After wind, many sand pervaded.

It is a trouble for the vehicle driving at the desert. In the spring season, the sandstorm is

coming.


It is very long time we did not go to the desert. I really want to know how the desert is

now. Several days before, the teacher led us to the desert, we all looked forward to it. We

speeded up to there.


Finally, we reached the destination. Several years after, the desert has a big change.

Looking afar, the bare desert is a green land, with a total change. Coming close to the

desert, we find the desert has many green plants, though their leaves are not green and the

flowers are not beautiful. Under the bad environment they look alive facing the shine and

dry desert. They look so cute and shining.


With the introduction of teachers, we know that in the recent years, all the staff made the

wheat grid to stop the spread of the desert.


Anti-dry plant and grid square makes the desert a beautiful scenery which is more colorful.

The road besides the desert looks decent, people and traffic are convenient. With the plant,

the animal against the dry, this brings vigor to the desert.


Long time before, people around the desert herd, making the plant seldom and even distinct.

So now the desert can spread, severely damage the around, ruining the plant. At the same

time it brings some unconvenience to people's life.


As now with a strenghtened sense, many experts come up with many ways to implement the

ways, so today our environment gets an improvement, and plants can grow. We can reach

harmony.
