School trips are great chances for us to learn things outside textbooks. Last term, Li Tao’s class visited a wastewater treatment plant. It was an unforgettable day for all the students.

They went there by school bus. At first, many students thought the plant would be boring. But soon they became interested. A worker showed them around. He told them how dirty home water became clean again. Large screens took away big waste pieces. Special machines removed small germs（细菌）. It took many steps before the water was clean for reuse.

Li Tao used to think getting clean water was easy. After the visit, he realized it took lots of hard work. In the afternoon, the workers told them short meaningful folk stories about saving water. Some students wrote notes. Later when they got back to school, every student wrote a diary about this special school trip.

Li Tao wrote in his diary: “We cannot learn everything only from books. Real-world trips bring-us-new knowledge. We need to value clean water in our daily life.” Such trips make students think more about our real world.
