Bamboo is a wonderful plant for many people around the world. People make tables, clothes, medicine, and musical instruments with it. Pandas may eat bamboo every day, but people can also eat it.
Some bamboo grows so quickly that people say they can watch it grow. The speed of growth depends on the type of bamboo, the earth and the season. Normal bamboo grows 3—10 cm a day. It usually grows in tropical (热带的) areas. Bamboo plants are found in Asia, Australia, parts of Africa, and South America.
