Panda is recognized as China’s national treasure in the world. It has a friendly and lovely look. It is deeply loved by people all over the world, especially teenagers. Look at the panda! It looks like an astronaut. It wears an ice shell (冰壳) and looks fat, so we call it “Bing Dwen Dwen”.

6 . In the UK, bus journeys are very common. Buses are often convenient（便利的）for the people who live or work in the city center. Passengers can avoid heavy traffic and not have to pay for the parking. However, taking the bus is just a necessary but boring part of life: they get on the bus, pay for it and sit or find a place to stand when it is crowded. Everyone seems sad and bored.
In Latin America, however, bus trips can be wonderful. For a start, films are showed on the buses between cities for passengers to have fun along the journeys. Local buses do not show films, but drivers usually turn on the radio and it can be great for passengers to listen to songs and get relaxed.
Even better than films and music are the sights and sounds on the buses. Local buses always go to parts of the town that passengers would not visit by themselves. There passengers can see shops that they have never heard about. And they can also see other cultures of the town from the windows of the buses.
Besides, passengers’ luggage is also interesting. It is common to see a happy dog’s head getting out of somebody’s bag or a lovely chicken “speaking cheerfully” under somebody’s arm.
Once on a bus in Peru, a farmer even tied a sheep to the top of the bus. It was quite surprising.

Is it possible to go online, talk with your friends on apps, or even read a map on your coat in the near future? Yes, your coat!
It is what scientists are working on. Professor Peng Huisheng and his team at Fudan University have made a new kind of cloth. We can use it as a digital screen. They spend 12 years trying to make “digital cloth”. The first is to find out the right thread. After checking many of them, they choose two special ones. One can light up, and the other is conductive.
The coat will be great. You can not only fold it, but also wash it. The researchers wash it 500 times and fold it 1,000 times. But the coat is almost unchanged. That’s because this coat is made of a kind of light and soft but strong fibers and fits people well. You can wear it just like any other coat. The difference is that it can work like a smartphone. It is just like putting a phone screen into the coat. Wear it and then it can show you a lot of information you want.
Professor Peng believes that the new coat can be used in many ways. For example, a driver or a bicycle rider can use it as a GPS map on his or her arm when travelling around. It can also help people who can’t hear or speak to talk with others. In the hospital, the doctor can get the health data of a patient through his coat. That helps look after them better.
Are you looking forward to putting on this coat? It’s coming soon. Let’s wait and see.
