Zhang Lili, a Chinese language teacher at No.19 Middle School of Jiamusi in Heilongjiang Province, has recently been considered to be “the Most Beautiful Teacher” in China.
At 8:38 pm on Tuesday, May 8th, 2012, Zhang Lili and her several students were waiting for a bus at the school gate when suddenly a school bus lost control and rushed towards them. When she realized the danger, she pushed two students to safety, but she was hit and run over. The 29-year-old teacher lost her legs.
“She is a backbone(骨干) teacher in our school. She works very hard,” said the headteacher.
The heroic teacher was the most popular teacher among the students. “Her students love her a lot. Her room is always full of students when she is free,” said another teacher.
Zhang Lili was also very generous. “My son has lost his father. Every month, Zhang secretly put 100 yuan in his desk from her own salary(工资) to support his studies,” said a boy’s mother, who was waiting outside the emergency room(急诊室) for hours to express how grateful she felt towards Zhang.
Two weeks later, Zhang Lili came out of her coma(昏迷). She wrote a letter to her students, wishing them good luck on their entrance exams for high school. Her letter, 200 words long took her three days to write.

A school bus is one that is used to take children to and from school.
In the USA, about 450,000 school buses take more than 25 million children to and from school. The yellow school bus is a US icon (象征). 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. It's 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 them--and then, go to school. Even some parents want to take them, too!

Note-taking is a skill that can help you do well in all your school work. It can make you confident(自信的) when you are studying. But unluckily, most students don’t know how to take notes.
Write down key facts. If your teacher writes notes on the blackboard, that’s great. You can copy them or write down the most important facts of all in class. Different teachers do things differently. For example, some teachers may focus on(关注) lots of dates and facts in class, but they only write the important ones on the blackboard. Other teachers may not write anything down, but they may say something important again and again.
Ask. Don’t be afraid to ask your teacher to repeat what you miss. If your teacher speaks too fast and you can’t follow what he is saying, you can ask him after class.
Compare. Comparing your notes with your classmates’ can be good for your learning. It can also help you and your classmates correct(纠正) some mistakes.
Organize(组织). Note-taking also needs organization. Keep notes for each subject in one notebook, so that you can find everything easily when a test comes.
