Last summer, Tom and his family went on a trip to Chengdu. They visited many famous places, but the most impressive one was the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding. They arrived early in the morning to avoid the crowds. The base was huge and covered with bamboo forests. Tom saw many pandas, from tiny newborn cubs to large adults. He learned that pandas spend about 14 hours a day eating bamboo! The keepers told him that pandas are shy animals and need a quiet environment. Tom also watched a documentary about how scientists work to protect these lovely creatures. Before leaving, he bought a small panda toy as a souvenir. This trip made Tom understand the importance of wildlife protection.

". One of the activities was a robot-making competition. Lucy and her partner, Mike, decided to join. They spent two weeks designing and building a small cleaning robot. Their robot could move around a room, avoid furniture, and pick up small pieces of paper. It was powered by a solar panel and a small battery. On the competition day, they were nervous but excited. Their robot worked perfectly and won second prize! The judge said their idea was creative and environmentally friendly. Lucy learned that teamwork and patience are very important for success. Now, she is more interested in science than ever before.
