You probably know that bamboo is the favourite food of pandas, but chimpanzees, gorillas and elephants eat it too. Bamboo is also extremely useful to people. It is a very valuable construction material because it is so strong. In fact, whole houses can be built from bamboo. In some parts of the world, bamboo is used as scaffolding (the frame used to support building work).
The range of things that can be made from bamboo is huge. Furniture, cooking utensils, and musical instruments can all be made from bamboo. It can even be used to make bicycle frames and boats. Bamboo fibres can be used to produce a soft, cotton-like material for T-shirts and underwear. They also use bamboo fibres to make paper.

Electricity is the most common form of energy we use today. Long ago, people only saw electricity in nature through lightning or felt it as static shocks. In 1752, Benjamin Franklin used a kite during a storm to prove that lightning is actually a form of electricity. Later, other inventors found ways to create electricity and move it through wires. One of the most famous inventors was Thomas Edison, who created the first practical light bulb, changing how people live after sunset.
Today, electricity is produced in large buildings called power stations. These stations use different sources like coal, gas, or even moving water to turn big wheels called turbines. When these wheels spin very fast inside a special machine, they create a flow of energy. This energy then travels through thick metal cables over long distances to reach our cities. Inside our houses, electricity moves through smaller wires hidden in the walls to reach our plugs and switches.
We use electricity for almost everything. Its most common use is providing light so we can see in the dark. In factories, it powers big machines that make cars and clothes. In our homes, it runs refrigerators to keep food fresh and computers for our schoolwork. Electricity is very helpful because it can easily change into light, heat, or motion. Because it is available at the touch of a switch, modern life would be very difficult and slow without it.
Benjamin Franklin was the first person to create electricity in a laboratory.
Power stations create energy by using moving parts like spinning wheels.
The wires used to carry electricity outside are exactly the same as the wires inside our walls.
Electricity is useful because it can be converted into different forms like heat.
Before the 18th century, people already used electricity to light their houses at night.
