In 2005, three rice farmers in Tainan, Taiwan, became famous because of the movie Let It Be. The movie shows how the three farmers live and work on the land. People are surprised by their stories and by their love for the land they live on.

For the farmers, the land is the only hope they see in life. They stay happy in the light of hope, whether the light is strong or weak. Even in hard times, the farmers still give thanks to the land and keep working happily on their farms. When their farms grow very little rice, they just laugh and say, “It’s OK. Don’t worry! We’re still living a happy life!”

That is the way many Taiwanese farmers live with their problems. They work hard and never ask for much from the land. All they want is to love and live for it. Because of the movie, the world can remember the farmers in Taiwan for their hard work and their “let-it-be” idea about life.

At 5 o’clock every morning, while most people are sleeping, 16-year-old Libby Larson is already up. She mops the floor, gets the mail and the newspapers, and gets ready for visitors to Rolling Acres. Libby’s grandparents started Rolling Acres in 1970, and since then all of the Larson family have been working there. Rolling Acres used to be just a sheep farm, but now, with its fruit trees, vegetable gardens, and many other kinds of animals, it has become a popular place for families to go on vacation. Visitors can pick fruits, collect eggs, and feed the animals. It is one of Libby’s jobs to show kids how to feed the baby sheep. For her work, Libby is paid $10 an hour. This summer, she expects to make about $1,200 and plans to buy a cell phone. Her friends think it’s great to make that much money in a summer. However, for Libby, working at a family business also means makingsacrifices. “I’d love to sleep until noon or go to summer camp like other kids. My friends stopped inviting me on trips because I’m always busy in the summer.However, Libby also said, “But it’s better to see both sides. Working with your family is great. You feel closer to each other.

Englishman Robert Scott is known for leading two trips to Antarctica. The first one made him a star; the second 34.

After his first successful trip, Scott decided to be the first person to stand on the South Pole. However, 35. He would be in a race with Roald Amundsen, from Norway. Both left their countries by ship in June of 1910 and arrived in Antarctica in January of 1911.

About ten months later, both teams started their trips down to the South Pole. 36. Amundsen’s team used dogs, and Scott’s team used horses. Because horses weren’t good at traveling on snow, it took Scott’s team 77 days to arrive at the South Pole. They got there on January 17, 1912, and were surprised to find that Amundsen was ahead of them. The news hit Scott very hard, but what he didn’t know was that 37. His team began their long trip home with broken hearts. After days of terrible weather and little food, Scott lost his men one after another, and he himself was the last one to meet the end of his life. No one on his team lived to go back home and tell their story. It was only learned through Scott’s diary.
