When the bell rings, every student takes out an iPad. The light from the screens makes their young faces pretty and lively. That’s what happens every day at my school in the US. We use iPads in class. I felt surprised and excited when I got an iPad the first day I arrivedat the school. But it was not free. I paid about $99 to rent it for three years. Every iPad at my school has a special learning system called Focus. Teachers put their teaching materials like textbooks and PPTs on it. When we have classes, we enter the system and download the materials with our iPads. It makes the classes interesting and efficient. For example, weeks ago, we learned about South African president Nelson Mandela. Our teacher prepared a video in which Mandela made an encouraging speech. We could not only watch the video, but also check the transcript(文字稿). Because of the video, I know more about the great man. We also do our homework with iPads. If our homework is made up of multiple choice(选择题).We can know the grade right after we submit (提交)out homework.If it’s essays,teachers grade them online without needing to look through so many papers.

As I walked through Beijing's Houhai neighborhood, something green caught my eye. Sprouts(豆芽), mushrooms and flowers all came out on people's heads, standing straight up. I was so surprised at the craziness that a lot of people have plants come out on their heads. The trend(潮流) was a great chance for business. Merchants(小贩) stood on street comers' selling all kinds of plastic mushrooms and sprouts. Three yuan for one sprout, five for a pair. Customers put what they bought onto their heads and walked off, and the sprouts danced happily on people's head. China Daily also reported that one Taobao merchant sold 28,850 hairpins(发夹) in a month. The strange trend had been popular for 2 months in China. I wanted to find out what was behind the strange hairpins. I went to the 798 Art District to do some research, There were tons of tourists with sprouts on heads, and a shopkeeper told me that the film Monster Hunt was the cause of the popularity. The 2015 Chinese movie featured a cute little monster with a patch of moss(苔藓)on the top of his head. CNN reported in a different way: The idea of the hairpins came from a Japanese cartoon character. One smiling face has a pair of green leaves growing on its head. The trend was catching great attention from all over the world. Major newspapers like The Wall Street Journal and The Telegraph showed their confusion over the strange trend and they said they really couldn't understand why Chinese people were so crazy. Some people think perhaps the hairpins are a symbol of the cute and childlike "meng" culture. Others believe they are the symbol of the love for cartoons. I think maybe this is showing their strong wishes to protect the environment. Who knows In fact, nobody cares about it. After all, beauty is mysterious(种秘的). What is it on your head? 66.
