    Do you know when and where ice cream was created? It has a long and interesting history.

    The earliest ice cream was eaten in China many centuries ago. People at that time would put orange juice on the ice or get something cool to drink. Later, this idea traveled to Italy. Around 1660, it was popular to serve ice cream in coffee shops in Paris. Most of the shops were owned by Italians. Among them, the first successful one belonged to(属于)a man named Francesco Procopio.

    Ice cream was brought to America in the early 1700s, and it quickly became the favorite of Americans. President George Washington had ice cream pots(罐)and machines in his kitchen. Dolly Madison, the wife of President Madison, was the first one to serve it in the White House. She made her guests very happy when she served such desserts(甜品).

    Before ice cream was sold in stores, it was made and kept at a very low temperature first. It took a lot of work to mix cream, eggs, fruit and ice. Nancy Johnson, an American woman who was good at machines, invented the ice cream freezer in 1846. Five years later. Jacob Flusell opened the first ice cream factory in Baltimore, Maryland. Her business quickly came to other states.

Bella was playing basketball when she saw a car pulled up in Jill's driveway. Jill jumped out of the car, laughing and waving goodbye happily towards the car.

Bella watched as the car drove away. Her eyes started to water."Hey, what's wrong?"Mom asked."Nothing. I don't want to play any more."Bella shut the door heavily."How could Jill do that to me? I thought we were friends."

There was a knock on the door. Her mom called outside,"Bella, are you OK?"Bella ignored(不理睬) it and put her pillow(枕头) over her head."I'll be downstairs if you want to talk later. It's a good choice to calm(平静)yourself down first."

Finally, Bella calmed down and went to talk with her mom. Her mom always had some good ideas to help her.

"What's going on, Bella?"Mom asked.

" Jill went somewhere with our friends and she didn't invite me," Bella said."Why wouldn't she ask me? I thought we were friends."

"Oh, honey, I'm sorry. I'd be very sad too if I felt left out. Maybe Jill knew that you wouldn't like what they were going to do,"Mom said.

"Maybe …"Bella wasn't sure.

"Why don't you talk with Jill about it at school on Monday?"

"I don't want to talk to her. I'm angry! I'm just going to ignore her."

"Well ... sometimes ignoring another person is a good choice, but if you ignore her, how can you solve the problem? Not talking about it is just going to make it worse, and you might lose Jill as a friend."

"OK, Mom,I'll talk to her at school. Thanks."

And guess what? Bella's mom was right! Jill knew Bella didn't like snakes,and she and the other girls went to the zoo to see the new snake show. Bella was glad she talked to Jill to solve the problem.

How do you go to school evey day? By bike or on foot? Maybe you can try a new way— taking a S' Gool Bus.

The S' Gool Bus is also called the bike bus. It was invented in the bike kingdom— the Netherlands. It is all about green lifestyle, sports and sharing. It's interseting for kids to ride the bus together to go to school.

Also, it is very safe. The bike bus has a driver and eleven seats for kids. Each one has a helmet and safety belt. There is also a roof on the bus. It can be used on hot days or rainy days to make kids feel comfortable.

Riding the bike bus is one of the greatest ways for children to get to school. Peter, a 10- year- old pupil, becomes a big fan of the bike bus." Now the S' Gool Bus is my favorite way of transport. I can ride it together with other kids to keep healthy. It's full of fun." For most parents, it can help them save a lot of time because they only have to pick up their children after school.

The S' Gool Bus is becoming more and more popular in some countries like Germany and France. Its inventor Thomas Tolkamp says,"I hope I can sell the bike bus to more countries in the future. As green lifestyle becomes popular, ideas like this get popular, too. I think it will work well in other countries." The use of the S' Gool Bus shows us that we can save the Earth in many ways as long as we want to have a try.
