   “The grass looks greener on the other side of the fence.” That’s an old saying in English. It means that other places often look better, more interesting than the place where you live. “Let’s go to KFC for dinner and then watch some Japanese cartoons!” We all know it: more and more Chinese kids love American and Japanese food and movies. Some people worry that young Chinese are beginning to feel that way. They see young Chinese ignoring（忽视）Chinese culture and, instead, buying Japanese cartoon books, watching Korean soap operas and even celebrating western holidays.

Foreign books and soap operas are good, but Chinese writers and actors are just as good. As for holidays, Christmas is nice, but it can never have the meaning for Chinese that the Spring Festival has, and the West has nothing to compare with the Mid-Autumn Festival. China has lots of cool things in its culture: calligraphy, Beijing Opera, quick meals on the streets. And let’s not forget the part of Chinese culture I like best: its friendliness. Not all countries are as warm as China.

It’s good to enjoy other cultures and learn from them, but they can never replace your own culture. It’s good to look on the other side of the fence, but make sure you take a good long look. You will find that the grass isn’t always greener.

Although some people become worried about that, I don’t think they should. Will we get more powerful without learning from other countries? Will Chinese people live more happily without American fast food? Besides, it’s fun to learn about different cultures. Chinese kids can learn about other cultures and have fun, but they also need to learn more about their own culture. Be proud of Chinese culture and of being Chinese!

Nowadays many students are wearing glasses.

   Forty percent of teens say they have been hit or nearly hit by a car，motorcycle or bike while walking，according to a new report released by the Safe Kids Worldwide organization.

Safe Kids Delaware has released a list of safety tips children and teens should follow in order to remain safe while walking. The group said it is important to put down phones and remove headphones while crossing the street，make eye contact with drivers before crossing，and remain visible to drivers even in the dark.

"We all know about the dangers of distracted（思想不集中的）driving，but we need to talk to our children，especially teens，about the dangers of walking while they are distracted by using technology like listening to music with headphones on，and texting on cellphones，"said Kim O'Malley，the pedestrian（行人）safety conductor for Safe Kids Delaware.

Teens on the Moue is the name of the report，which explores the walking behavior of  1，040 teenagers between the ages of 13 to 19.Half of the surveyed teens admitted they were distracted by a mobile device while crossing the street. The study also found that more often than not，those who were hit or nearly hit had not been using a crosswalk（人行横道）or had been running across the street.

Safe Kids Worldwide reports that the death rate for teens aged 13 to 19 is nearly three times higher than that of 5-to 12-year-olds.In Delaware，seven teenagers aged 15 to 19 have been killed in pedestrian crashes in the last three years，and another 123 have been injured. By comparison，just two children aged 5 to 9 were killed at that time and another 79 were injured. The new report expands on findings from a similar one in 2015 that showed one in five high schoolers and one in eight middle schoolers crossed the street while distracted by using technology.

According to a recent survey, violence（暴力）did exist in schools. Students showed their fear and parents and teachers also 【小题1】（express）their great concern about it. Experts hope 【小题2】 whole society should pay more attention to the psychological health of teenagers.
