Yellow became the color of school buses in the USA in 1939. Dr. Frank got the good idea. He said it was easy for people to see yellow buses and the black letters on them in early morning or late afternoon. 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. The trackers let parents know where the school bus is and whether their kids are on the bus.Kindergarten (幼儿园) is a difficult time for some kids. Its the first time for them to go away from their parents. To make kids love their school, Japanese kindergartens and schools have colorful buses. The buses can easily make children want to take themand then, go to school. Even some parents want to take them, too!School buses are becoming more and more popular in China now.

In the lunch line I met a new friend who wore a hijab(穆斯林女性) on her head, and though I am Jewish (犹太人的), we got along fine. I was so happy when she said, “Sit with us at our table.” She pointed to the table next to the door. So I agreed.

I saw how wars got started. Everyone insists on his or her own kind. The lunchroom was a map of the world. Why was everyone so blind?
