On their way back home every day, many students stop by street vendors(摊贩)near their school to eat street food. These vendors look dirty. But why do children like to eat this kind of food? To find out why, we asked 150 students in our city last month, and here is the report(报告).

66% of the students thought the street food was dirty, but 50% of them ate it,the report says. Many students said they ate street food because it was delicious. “School food is terrible and always the same,” said Ling Ming.

Many students also thought street food was quick. Another student Wang Jiao said, “Street food is quick and you can eat hot food at anytime. At school you can only have food at meal time, and you usually have to wait a long time before it is ready.”

“Schools should make students buy food in groups. So we don’t have to wait in a long queue,” Xue Yigan said.

But the report doesn’t give any ideas on how to make school food better(更好).

Everyone knows that chickens lay eggs. Most people know that all the other birds do as well. But have you ever thought about other animals that lay eggs? They include bees, snakes and some sea animals.

When a mother lays eggs, many more babies can be born at once, or in a few days, because there is very little development inside the parent. Animals that do not lay eggs often have fewer babies. Animals lay many eggs because other animals may eat the babies. However, even though some of their babies are eaten, they will still have some more to continue their family.

Some animals that lay eggs do not take care of their young. Turtles come onto the beach and dig holes. Then they put their eggs in the sand and leave. A turtle mother can lay as many as 150 eggs. When the babies come out of the eggs, they must find their own way to the ocean. They must learn how to live on their own. Many young turtles get eaten by other animals.

Most eggs have an outside shell that keeps the growing animal inside safe. The egg shell also keeps the young animal from drying out. After the animal is fully developed, it comes out of the egg.

The animal grows bigger and bigger. Then it can have its own young.
