They were just trying to survive. They lived in the desert, and they didnt have
20、enough water to grow their crops.In its simplest form, it was little more than a pipe with holes in it. But behind each hole was a hi-tech dripper that let out just the right amount of water. Snaked along a row of crops so that the holes were positioned directly above the roots, the pipe could direc

27、g and fightingwhether you have experienced it or not, the chances are that these are the things that appear in your mind when you hear the word “bullying”. Yet, many of us know little about the serious, lasting harms bullying could cause. If youve watched 13 Reasons Why, youll understand the impacts

It tells the story of Hannah Baker, a high school student who takes her own life after shes picked on by fellow students, while others stand by and do nothing to help her. One of the important messages
29、 audiences could get from the show is to treat people with kindness and respect. “It teaches us that every single thing we say and do has an impact on others,” news platform Odyssey noted.
