Post 4: The zebra crossing (crosswalk)
Hi, today i will talk about zebra crossing. The zebra crossing its a piece of cement painted whit white stripes, in there the people can cross from one street to another without risk, but, why is it called that, if its a crossing of people and not of zebras? I think I have a answer and now I will explain. How is it painted whit white stripes just like the zebras its called that way, but that name is still stranger because i never seen a zebra crossing over here because zebras dont live in the city, they live in the jungle and in that place dont have zebra crossing. Another theory about the name is that when you walk over here, you are walking on the zebra, on his back but this theory is very weird, so, the first explanation its very rigth, because many people think the same or maybe the person who created it for the first time saw a zebra cross.

The origin of the name is so interesting
