I heard the cheers from the teachers and students.Those classmates who once looked down on me, now all said "Congratulations!" to me. My teacher hugged (拥抱) me and cried excitedly.

When we talk of plants，most of us will think of things that grow from the ground and have green leaves，but there are plants that do not look or act like other plants．Some of these belong to a special class of plants called fungi．

Fungi may appear almost everywhere．They commonly grow in wet places where they can get food and water easily．Because fungi do not have green leaves to make their own food，but fungi must take their food from animals，other plants or water．Some fungi live on dead or rotting wood，while others grow on living trees or in dirt or moss(苔藓)．Mushrooms are the best—known fungi．

There are many kinds of mushrooms appearing in all shapes and sizes．For example，cauliflower mushrooms(蘑菜花)are found in forests from July to October．They can grow to be as heavy as fifty pounds! They grow at the foot of trees．Squirrel’s bread(松茸)is another kind of wild mushroom．Itsappearance and use can explain its name．These fungi look like small golden cakes．Squirrels can easily eat them or carry them off to their hole to eat later．

The mushrooms found in food stores are carefully grown by people who know they are safe to eat．People are warned never to touch of tasting wild mushrooms because some of them are deadly．Even less dangerous ones can still snake a person very sick．

I like style A very much. I think wearing such school uniforms can make us look not only smart but also sporty. And we may feel energetic when we wear them. I like the colours as well. It’s good for boys to wear blue and white. They are a good match. They can make us feel less stressed. And red is also a good colour for girls. Red makes us feel full of energy and passion. It can make us take action easily.
