Crossing the River to School
Howdo you get to school? Do you walk or ride a bike? Do you go by bus or by train?For many students, it is easy to get to school. But for the students in onesmall village in China, it is difficult. There is a very big river betweentheir school and the village. There is no bridge and the river runs too quicklyfor boats. So these students go on a ropeway to cross the river to school.

One11-yeear-old boy, Liangliang, crosses the river every school. But he is notafraid. “I love to play with my classmates. And I love my teacher. He’s like afather to me.”
Manyof the students and villagers never leave the village. It is their dream tohave a bridge. Can their dream come true?

_____ What Is an Elephant?
_____ Come to Thailand
_____ Let’s Save the Elephants
_____ Elephants Are Good Pets
?
Hello. We are students from Thailand, and we want to save theelephants. The elephant is one of Thailand’s symbols. Our first flag had a whiteelephant on it. This is a symbol of good luck.
?
Elephants are smart animals. They can play soccer or music. They canalso draw very well. People say that ‘a(chǎn)n elephant never forgets’. Elephants canwalk for a long time and never get lost. They can also remember places withfood and water. This helps them to live.
?
But elephants are in great danger. People cut down many trees soelephants are losing their homes. People also kill elephants for their ivory.Today there are only about 3,000 elephants (over 100,000 before). We must savethe trees and not buy things made of ivory. Remember that March 13this Thai Elephant Day.

A Weekend to Remember
My sister finished high school two weeksago. As a special gift, our parents took us to India. Last weekend was interestingbut scary.
?
We went camping in a small village inIndia. First, we took a long bus ride to a lake in the countryside. There weput up our tents and make a fire to keep us warm and cook food on. On the firstnight, we just sat under the moon and told stories to each other. But I was sotired that I went to sleep early.
?
The next morning, my sister and I got aterrible surprise. When we looked out of our tent, we saw a big snake sleepingnear the fire. I was so scared that I couldn’t move. We shouted to our parentsto let them know about the danger. My dad started to jump up and down in theirtent. This woke the snake up and it moved into the forest near the lake. My dadtold me later that snakes don’t have ears but can feel things moving. He alsotold me it was important not to go near a snake. This was very useful lessonfor me.
