l like to get up late, so my ideal(理想的) school starts at 9: 00 a. m. It finishes at 3: 00 p. m. So we can do lots of sports after school.
In my ideal school, there is a big dining hall. We have an hour for lunch. We can listen to music in the hall. We can have maths every day because I think maths is very interesting. The classes are very small. There are 15 students in each class. We can have a big library with a lot of useful books. We can also have a swimming pool.
After school, we only have half an hour of homework every day. Every month, we can go on a school trip to a museum(博物馆) or a theater.

Taxi-hailing apps are also very popular in Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou and NanJing and they have tens of thousands of users. The users call a Didicab and pay the drivers by wechat or Alipay. however, the app has been criticized(指责) it is not very good. For example, not all the drivers are good: What if there is a traffic accident(交通事故)?On the other hand, many users think that they are very useful especially during the bad weather and rush hours. Can this app be in use for long: Technology may make a great difference to our life. Let's wait and see.
