2 . Boys and girls, do you usually take many ways of getting to school because of different distances (距离) between the school and your home? Here are four ways for American students to go to school.
In America, people like school buses, and they can see a lot of yellow buses running on and off the streets on school days. These buses send children to school in the morning. Then they take the students home in the afternoon.
Students in America also like to ride a bike to school. But they must wear helmets (头盔) to keep safe (安全的). Their City Government (政府) tells students to go to school by bike. Scott Stringer thinks it is very useful for students to keep healthy.
What about taking a bus to school? It’s a cheap way for children in the USA. But the buses in America don’t stop at every stop. Students get to their stops and they need to tell the driver. Then the driver stops the bus at the stop.
Many American families have cars. But parents only drive their children to school on rainy or snowy days. Some of them do this because they live far away from school.
