Whether yellow, red or white, the onion is a vegetable that you may not know well. The list of its uses in cooking is endless. People have used onions to add flavor(味道) to their foods for thousands of years. Besides onions' great taste, they are very good for you. They have special chemicals that improve your ability to fight off illness and you have fewer chances of getting ill.
No matter how good onions are for you, it is difficult to cut an onion without your eyes filling with tears! When you cut an onion, irritating chemicals inside the onion will get into the air. They touch your whole eyes and cause pain. Your eyes make tears to wash away the chemicals and protect your eyes.
Luckily, cooks and scientists have discovered some ways to keep you from crying when you cut up onions.
●Cut the onion under running water. The water will wash away the chemicals before they can reach your eyes.
●Use a fan to blow air over the onion as you cut it. The air will blow the chemicals away from your eyes.
●Put the onion in a fridge for an hour before cutting. This helps make the chemicals in the onion move slowly, so they may not ever reach your eyes.
If you try out these good ideas and still cry while cutting onions, don't worry. Scientists think if you cut more onions, your body will become more resilient to the onion's chemicals. So the tears will not last long. If you think about how healthy onions are, you might even call those tears" happy tears".
① Cu t the onion under running water.
② Use a fan to blow air over the onion while cutting.
③ Co ver the onion with a piece of cloth as you cut it.
④ Put the onion in a fridge for an hour before cutting.
①Foreigners like growing flowers in the garden and enjoy the nice smell in spring. However, Chinese people prefer growing vegetables and get a harvest in autumn. For Chinese, bottles, even plastic bags are perfect for growing vegetables.
②It's said that there is a"vegetable gene (基因)" in every Chinese people. After all, they have farmed for thousands of years and gained rich experience in growing vegetables.
③A group of parents of Chinese students once grew vegetables at Yale University in the USA. This area used to be covered with weeds (杂草). To help change the situation, these Chinese parents worked together and finally turned weeds into vegetables.
④Africa is such a poor place. Many hard-working and kind-hearted Chinese workers went there to help. They helped build roads as well as taught Africans how to farm. All kinds of fruits and vegetables have been grown in Africa.
⑤The soldiers (士兵) on the islands of the South China Sea also created a vegetable garden through their own efforts. It used to be difficult for the soldiers to eat fresh vegetables on the islands. But recently, they harvested 750kg of vegetables on sandy beaches. Everyone was excited.
⑥With the development of the science and technology in China, Chinese people have grown vegetables all over the world, from Europe to Africa, the days of planting potatoes on Mars(火星) will not be far away.
After traveling over 18 hours, we finally arrived at Baige Primary School in Yunnan Province. We came here to be volunteer teachers during the summer holiday. Located in the mountains, the school had over 400 children aged from 6 to 13 but only four teachers. To enrich their lessons, we wanted to introduce different courses.
Before starting my first class, I spent several days reviewing key points and practicing often. In my first class, I poured out everything I had learned. However, the students weren't interested and didn't act well in my class.
After that, I changed my teaching plan. For example, when I taught the culture in the Tang Dynasty, I began the class with stories from Journey to the West. This time the students actively took part in the discussion. Even after class, some of them were still talking about what they had learned in the lesson.
I knew that I had succeeded. Thanks to my teaching style, the students easily understood and remembered the history. History class was not boring to them anymore.
After classes, we spent most of our time talking and playing games with the kids. Because of the location of the mountains, many children never went out. We often told fun stories from the cities and encouraged students to study hard and visit these cities by themselves in the future.
It was an unforgettable experience. We felt proud that we could enlighten(启发) the kids and bring joy to these young minds.
A. I decided to start with stories, telling them about those fun, touching and classic historical events. B. The class schedule(日程表) was simple: Chinese, math and PE lessons. C. As a history lover, I naturally became a history teacher. D. For them, the outside world was wonderful but couldn't be reached. E. At first, I found teaching was not an easy task. |

When Pollyanna woke up, sunlight was through the window of her room. She 1 it was a perfectly wonderful sunny Saturday and she had so many things that she wanted to do.2 , she heard a rapping(敲打) on the door. "Wake up, Pollyanna! It' s Friday— you' ll be late for 3 !"
Many children would feel 4 to find out it was a school day, but not Pollyanna! Her father had taught her how to 5 the Glad Game when she was little. The goal of the game was to look on the 6 side of everything. She had played it ever since, 7 it worked every time!" Oh, that' s good news!I' m8 school now!" she laughed as she jumped out of bed. "I' ll see my friends and learn all the new things!"
Pollyanna ran through the kitchen, took her lunch box and gave Nancy a kiss as she did so. "No time for breakfast!" she said to herself. "But a healthy appetite(食欲) will make my lunch taste 9 !"
Pollyanna rushed out and ran down the hill as fast as she could. As she went 10 Mr. Pendleton's house, the old man waved to her and said, "Good morning!" Pollyanna smiled and turned to wave back but tripped by stones. Before she knew what was 11 , she found herself in a ditch(沟)!
The girl's dress was a bit dirty, but she was 12 smiling. The old man couldn't help but laugh. "Look what I found in the ditch!" she was holding up some wild flowers and said. "They will make a perfect gift for my 13 !"
Pollyanna made it to the classroom just as the bell rang. Her dress and her hair were in a mess, but when she gave the flowers to the teacher,14 laughed and cheered.
That was the15 thing about the Glad Game, thought Pollyanna. When you play it, you spread happiness to others as well!
