Every day in China, about 200 million children go to school. Many of them take school buses. What should we do to keep these students safe on the road?
On April 5, the State Council(国务院) published new rules about school bus safety. These new rules are stricter than the old ones.
Under the new rules, local governments must make sure that students go to nearby school or boarding (寄宿的) schools to reduce traffic risks (风险). Also, local governments must help kids in the countryside reach their school buses.
From now on, school buses have a speed limit (限制) of 80 km/h on highways and 60 km/h on normal roads. While on the road, other cars must let school buses go first.
The new rules also say that school buses must never be overloaded (超载的).
There are many other rules as well. A school bus must have more than seven seats. On each bus, there must be at least one adult to keep an eye on the kids. Each school bus must have a fire extinguisher (灭火器), a first aid kit (急救箱) and a GPS.
Last year, a series of school bus accidents happened in China. To stop such accidents, the Central Government decided to strengthen (加强) the rules for school buses.
The most serious accident happened in November in Gansu, When a nine-seat minibus crashed(碰撞). There were 62 children inside, and 21 of them died.

A young man was getting ready to graduate from college. He had loved a beautiful sports car for many months, and he knew his father could afford it. He told his father that was all he wanted.
As the graduation day coming near, the young man had got nothing from his father. On the morning of his graduation, his father called him into his study. He told his son how proud he was to have such a good son, and told him how much he loved him. Then he gave his son a beautiful gift box. The young man opened the box and found a Bible(圣经). Angrily, he raised his voice and said, “With all your money you gave me a Bible?” He then ran out of the house and left his father.
