Hello, I'm Lily. I'm a student in Grade Eight. I must wear my school uniform on weekdays and I think it looks nice on me. Do you want to look good? Here are some suggestions.

First, keep your school uniforms clean. Never wear dirty clothes at school. Wash your school uniforms when they look dirty. It's important to wear clean clothes if you want to look good.

Second, get some nice shoes to match your school uniforms. I think the most popular shoes are sports shoes.

It's also very important to choose a suitable backpack（背包）. Don't choose a backpack that’s too large for you. It will make you look short.

And then, it's the most important for you to keep your face and hair clean. Wash your face after you get up in the morning, Brush your teeth to make them white. You should often take a shower and wash your hair at least twice a week. You’ll feel good and clean.

At last, always be happy with yourself and smile at others. If you smile at others, you'll make others and yourself feel better all day.

These cities ask drivers to stop when people walk across zebra road crossings. That's to say, if people are in a crosswalk, cars must stop to let them pass. If they don't, they'll have to pay a fine of 100 to 500 yuan and they'll also lose three points（扣三分）.

Why is this rule popular now? Because many cities are working hard to carry it out（執(zhí)行）.There are more cameras at zebra crossings now. Some workers can explain the rule to drivers.

Zebra crossings can help keep people safe. However, about 3, 898 people lost their lives in14. 000 zebra crossing accidents from 2015 to 2017. Most of the accidents happened because drivers wouldn't give way to people on foot.

Like other kinds of grass, a bamboo plant may be cut very low to the ground, but it will grow back very quickly. A Japanese scientist recorded one bamboo plant that grew almost 1.5 meters in 24 hours! Bamboo grows almost everywhere in the world except Europe. (62) There are more than 1,000 kinds of bamboo that grow around the world on both mountains and plains (平原).

Not all bamboo looks the same. Some bamboo plants are very thin. They may only grow to be a few centimeters wide while others may grow to more than 30 centimeters across. This plant also comes in different colors, from yellow to black to green.

Many Asian countries have been using bamboo for hundreds of years. They often use bamboo for building new buildings. As a matter of fact, the cables (繩索) that hold up the hanging bridge across the Min River in Sichuan are made of bamboo. The bridge has been in use for more than 1,000 years, and is still holding strong.

In Africa, (63) engineers are teaching poor farmers how to use bamboo to find water . These African countries need cheap ways to find water because (64) they have no money, and their fields often die from no rain and no water. It seems that bamboo is one of the best things they can use. Bamboo pipes and drills (鉆) can help to make the poor thirsty fields be watered.
