Zhang Hongying, girl, 15
I want to make our lunch time longer. At the moment, lunch time is short. Most of my classmates would like to do their homework during this time. But if they don’t get a good rest, they won’t have enough energy for the afternoon. So I would like to have more time and have time to take a nap after lunch. That way, we’ll learn better in the afternoon.
Zhao Pengran, girl, 15
I would like to have more chances to talk in English. Now, the English classes are not enough for us to practice speaking English. And soon the 29th Olympic Games will be held in our country. I think we’d better have one morning a week at least to have spoken English lessons in order to improve our English.

My idea would be to have more fashionable school uniforms. If I were the headmaster, I would ask the students to design the uniforms themselves. We could have a contest among student designers. Then, we could ask others to choose their favourite. This way, we’ll be able to wear what we like best. How nice it would be for us young people!

A few seconds later, people were surprised to see that the man stood up and spoke to the driver quietly, “Don't be afraid, Sir. I'm all right. This leg of mine was broken by wheels long before. Now this is not a real leg. It is a rubber（橡胶的）one. I'll never be afraid that it can be broken.”
