That would make children safer.There are not many school buses in Britain, and they are not yellow. They have trackers (追踪器) on them, so kids are being tracked while they travel to and from school by bus.

In the day, it can beso hot that you could fry an egg on the ground. But during the night it is sometimes so cold that water would turn into ice. Many desserts are covered in sand. But some have mountains, rocks, or lakesthat have dried up in the heat. The Great American Dessert has cliffs (悬崖) thathave been made into amazing and beautiful shapes by the wind. The Sahara Desertin Africa is mostly sand. The Australian Desert has red sand.Sometimes it does not rain for a whole year in the desert. But there is water deep under the ground and some plants have roots that go very deep to find it. Other plants have roots that spread out a long way so they can suck up the rain as soon as it falls.One desert plant is the cactus, which has long, spreading roots.The cactus stores water inside its hard skin. This skin protec ts it from heat and cold. Camels are a bit like cactus plants! They store water, too —inside their bodies. They have special fur which protects them from the sun during the day and keepsthem warm at night.Some other animals live in deserts, too. They have to be very good at seeing andhearing because most of them only come out at night. This is why many desertanimals have extra big eyes or ears.A desert fox has bigger ears than a normal fox. A gerbil (沙鼠)has huge eye, so that it can see at night.It stays cool in the day by staying underground, like most desert animals.Some people live in the desert but they always make their homes near an oasis. An oasis is where water comes from an underground river. Near an oasis, people can grow lots of plants and keep animals.Life is hard in the desert, for people, animals and plants.

It is hard for her family to get clean water. Every morning, she leaves home at half past five to get clean water for her family in a village far away. It takes her six hours to get enough clean water for daily cooking and drinking. She has no time to go to school orto play with her friends. Millions of people in the world are like Napoga. They can’t get enough clean water to keep healthy.Earth Day is April 22. But on all other days, we must also remember it. The water we use is the most important natural resource on the earth.Water covers 70% of the earth’s surface. But most of that is sea water. We can’t use it for very many things. Fresh water covers only 1% of the earth’s surface.You probably feel lucky that your life isn’t as hard as Napoga’s. But that doesn’t mean you don’t have to worry about water. We all face serious water problems. One of them is water pollution. All kinds of things from cars, factories, farms and homes make our rivers, lakes, and oceans dirty. Polluted water is very bad for people to drink. And dirty water is bad for fish, too. Now, 34% of all kinds of fish are dying out.How do cars and factories make our water dirty? First, they pollute the air. Then, when it rains, the rain water comes down and makes our drinking water dirty. Dirty rain, called acid rain (酸雨), is also badfor plants, animals and buildings. Scientists say that in 30 years, more than half of the people in the world won’t have enough cleanwater. We have to learn how to save more water for ourselves and our children. Here is some advice forsaving water:●Turn off the water while you brush your teeth. You can save as much as 450 liter s each month. ●Leaky taps (漏水的龙头) waste a lot of water. Fix them right away! ●You can easily cut your 10-minute showers in half —and you’ll be just as clean. ●When you wash dishes, don’t let the water run. ●Only wash clothes when you have a lot to wash. If your washing machine isn’t full, you’re wasting water!（ ）56.
