People all over the world eat rice. Millions of people in Asia, Africa and South America eat it every day of their lives. Some people eat almost nothing but rice.
Rice is a kind of grass. There are more than 7, 000 kinds of rice. Farmers grow rice in many countries, even in the southern part of the United States and in eastern Australia.
No one really knows where rice came from. Some scientists think that it started to grow in two places. They think that one kind of rice grew in southern Asia thousands of years ago. Someone in China wrote about it almost 5, 000 years ago. Another kind probably grew in west Africa. Other scientists think that rice came from India, and Indian travelers took it to other parts of the world.
There are two main ways to grow rice. Most rice grows in wet soil. People in many countries do all of the work of growing rice by hand. This is the same way farmers worked hundreds of years ago. In some countries, people now use machines on their rice farms.
People use every part of the rice plant. They make animal food and rice oil from it. They also make baskets, brooms and roofs for their houses. They burn dry rice plants in fires for cooking.

Never bend down near the bus when you walk to or from the bus stop.

You want to run across the street to catch the bus which is leaving soon? But wait! You’d better not. If a policeman sees you, you’ll have to pay a fine（罚款）. New traffic laws say that if people cross the street when the light is red, they can be fined as much as 50 yuan.
Traffic accidents killed more than 104, 000 people in China last year. Chinese cities have more cars than ever. Drivers and pedestrians（行人）must work together to make the streets safer.
The law has new rules for drivers and pedestrians. Drivers have to slow down when they are close to crosswalks. If people are in a crosswalk, cars must stop to let them walk.
There are rules for bus drivers, too. If bus drivers smoke, drink or make phone calls while driving, they can be fined. Buses that carry too many people are also against the law.
Pedestrians will have to walk more safely under the new law. They must cross streets at crosswalks. Also, they shouldn’t climb over the fences along streets.
Do you bike to school? It’s not a good idea to carry classmates on the back. You could be fined 50 yuan.
And stay in the bike lane when you’re riding. The big roads are for cars and buses.
Do you like to ride your uncle’s motorbike? When you put on your helmet, ask him to put one on, too. People on motorbikes must wear helmets, the law says. If they don’t, they’ll have to pay 200 yuan.
Do you ride in cars often? Don’t forget to put on your seat belt, even if you’re going for a short taxi ride. It could save your life.
