Worries about school bus safety have drawn much attention. Now schools in some poor areas are looking
41 some other ways to go to school.
In the countryside, students are living in different places. And there isn’t enough
time for school buses to go around and pick up
42 student. So the most useful way is to let students living in the
43 village take a special school bus which is for them only. And the cost is
44 by their parents and the school.
Each bus is asked to carry only five students on the same route(路線) every day. Traffic police are also making daily checks to make sure drivers don’t carry__
45 than 5 students. For a bus like this, the drivers can
46 make any money. So schools pay 300 yuan to drivers every month. The rest comes from the parents’ pockets（口袋）.
The roads to the students’ homes are rough(崎嶇的) and sometimes even dangerous,
47 falling rocks and narrow（狹窄的） bridges. After spending at least an hour on the road, the students finally make it home.

49 home safely each day. And they feel happy to see their child enjoy their time at school. But one girl says she’s seen the big yellow school
50 on TV, and wonders when she’ll ride one of her own.
