Eggs-perimenting with eggs

What can you do with eggs other than eat them?

Naked Eggs

What does an egg look like without its shell? You may be picturing the white and yolk in a bowl after

cracking it, but that isn't the only way to remove the shell.

Materials: an egg, white vinegar, a bowl, a spoon

Directions: Fill a bowl with one cup of vinegar. Add the egg to the bowl, and wait at least 24 hours. When

you check it after a day, you'll notice some bubbles on the egg and a residue(残留物) in the water Use the spoon

to gently remove the egg from the bowl. Dump out the old vinegar, and add a cup of fresh vinegar. Return the egg

to the bowl, and wait another 24 hours. When you remove the egg this time, the shell should be completely

dissolved. What remains will be the contents of the egg.

Walking on Eggshells

Can eggs hold the weight of your entire body?

Materials: six cartons(硬纸盒) of eggs, a garbage bag

Directions: Place the garbage bag on the floor to make any necessary clean up easier. Place the cartons of

apps into two rows of three. Make sure all the eggs are pointing in the same direction either

all pointy end up or all rounded end up. Step onto the first carton of eggs carefully. Make sure your foot is as

flat as possible and that you are distributing your weight evenly. If you're careful, you will succeed. Eggs are

actually incredibly strong. The arch shape at the top and the bottom of the egg allows pressure to be distributed

evenly over the egg. If you were to place the eggs on their sides instead, you'd be likely to wind up with a gooey

(胶粘的) mess.

1. In the first experiment, what causes the eggshell to dissolve?

A. Residue B. Water. C. Bubbles. D. Vinegar.

2. What makes the eggs strong enough to walk across?

A. The distribution of eggs.

B. The number of eggs.

C. The weight of eggs.

D. The position of eggs.

3. What was the author's purpose in writing this text?

A. To persuade readers to use eggs in new ways.

B. To tell readers some ways to experiment with eggs.

C. To entertain readers with funny use for eggs.

D. To inspire readers to conduct experiments carefully.

| Growing up on a farm, I learned from my parents about the large bees we called mangangava. But in college

when I gave a presentation about those bees, I didn't mention their familiar name; instead I used formal terms

when describing their adaptations for pollinating(授粉). I was afraid of being judged for expressing my personal

knowledge in a science class. But when the instructor pressed me to tell the class whether I'd seen the bees myself

and what I called them, my views and my whole career path began to change. I realized my background was

valuable, and that my calling was to help educate others like me.

My parents work ed on a small farm and I often helped out when I was not in school. They had a close

relationship with nature, something they learned from my grandparents and passed down to me. This was why I

became interested in biology.

In college, I joined a series of labs to gain research experience, but my interest in pursuing a career as a

scientist began to wane after I realized my research was not helping poor people like my parents As a black

student from a rural community, I also felt out of place in most classes. The feeling of not belonging circled in my

head. I sometimes thought about giving up.

My instructor's request that I share my knowledge of the mangangava bee changed my view. She saw that

tapping into my personal experiences would help me grasp the scientific concepts. No other professor bad shown

that kind of sensitivity, which helped me realize I did have a place in higher education and that I didn't need to

hide who I truly am.

. I'm now a master's student in education, working on a project that explores the connect ion between science

and traditional knowledge. I don't think I'd be here if I hadn't crossed paths with my instructor. We ne ed more

educators and scientists like her people who can serve as role models and know that the best way to nurture new

scientists is to allow students to be themselves.

4. What did the author initially think of his background when in college?

A. It was of little use for his college studies.

B. It motivated him to carry on his research.

C. It gave him an advantage over others.

D. It was something he wanted to hide.

5. What does the underlined word “wane” in paragraph 3 probably mean?

A. remain B. advance C. fade D. rise

6. What should a good educator do according to the author?

A. Value students' personal knowledge and views.

B. Inspire students to work as hard as he or she does.

C. Treat students from different backgrounds equally.

D. Be equipped with rich knowledge of a certain field.

7. What is the main idea of this passage?

A. The family is one of the nature's masterpieces.

B. Every man is the architect of his own fortune.

C. A good teacher is better than ten thousand books.

D. Good habits formed at youth make all the difference.

Most of us spend our lives surrounded by screens, which offer us convenience as well as connection and an

ocean of information. But since it's easy to feel pressured to keep up with every notification, technology may feel

more like a burden than a blessing. Thus, the idea of “digital detox” is becoming increasingly inviting.

The phrase “digital detox” describes getting rid of TV, phones, computers and other forms of technology that

control our lives for a period of time. Some experts advocate completely avoiding unnecessary screen time for 30

years. Others suggest using an app that will limit the amount of time one can spend on certain websites. A third

option is logging out in evenings or on weekends. Others simply turn their phones off at scheduled times. Some

even pay high prices to take vacations in places where they can unplug from their digital routine.

Why might you want to take a digital detox? Perhaps you find that you are spending longer than you intend

on certain apps or that they distract you from more important things. Perhaps social media is depressing because

you compare yourself to others or you fear missing out on things that other people are enjoying. Constant negative

news can also give rise to a lot of stress.

Technology can also have physical effects. Many people experience back or neck pain as a result of bending

over screens. The blue light coming from most screens can also affect people's sleep by preventing production of

melatonin(褪黑素).

Giving up all screens may not be realistic, but strategic breaks from technology may be good for your body,

mind, emotions and relationships. It is high time that you picked a time to turn off your devices and focus on

really important things.

8. Why does the author say “technology may feel more like a burden than a blessing ” in paragraph 1?

A. To confirm a concept.

B. To explain a rule.

C. To present a problem.

D. To make a prediction.

9. What is paragraph 2 of the text mainly about?

A. Forms of getting rid of “digital detox”.

B. Suggestions of practicing “digital detox”.

C. Ways of avoiding screen time completely.

D. Options of unplugging all digital routine.

10. Which could be the reason for one to start “digital detox”?
