The photo, taken on December 3, shows pupils using their brushes to depict the scenery of thousand-year-old Shanggantang Village in Jiangyong County. The "double reduction" policy has been implemented in recent years to ease the excessive homework and off-campus tutoring for students undergoing compulsory education. The students in the county are encouraged to get close to nature on weekends, painting the beautiful countryside sceneries and enjoying enriched after-school activities. (Photo/Tian Rurui)
