Bikes are popular in the Dutch. In fact, nearly half of all travel in the Dutch is by bike. Now, one Dutch bike designer, Thomas, has taken the country's interest in bikes by making a school bus bike.
The big bike has eight sets of pedals for kids, a driver seat for an adult, and three other seats, comfortably letting little kids for their trip to and from school. The bike even has a motor, which can help with high hills or at times when few kids on it.
So far, Thomas tells Fast Company, he's sold 25 school-bikes, at. a price of $25.000 each--less than it would cost to buy a traditional school bus with the same number of the seats. Along with the traditional color, the bikes are colored yellow so that they can be seen easily.
Thomas says he's sold school bus bikes to neighboring countries such as Belgium, England and Germany, but the school bus bike hasn't been sold in the United States. If the US agrees to buy this kind of school bus bike, it could do a lot of good to improve exercise for a young age and help them keep healthy.

In the USA, it is normal for men to shake hands when they meet, but it is quite unusual for men to kiss when they greet each other. Greetings are casual—a handshake, a smile and a “hello” will do just fine.
The British often simply say “hello” when they meet friends. They usually shake hands only when they meet for the first time. Social kissing, often just a peck(轻吻) on the cheek, is common in an informal(非正式的) situation between men and women and also between women who know each other very well.
In Japan, the common greeting for both men and women is to bow when they greet someone, instead of giving a handshake or a hug.
Hungarians like to greet in a friendly way—kiss each other on both cheeks. The most common way is to kiss from your right to your left. When men meet for the first time, a handshake is the norm.
In Albania, men shake hands when greeting one another. A kiss on the cheek may also be common if there is a close relationship. Women may shake hands or kiss each other on both cheeks.
