21、

What would happen if you tried to blow a soap bubble in freezing weather? Would it freeze solid(固体) and fall to the ground? Would you have to hit it to break it? These questions happened to me on a cold winter day. It was too cold to play in the snow, but it was a perfect time to experiment with blowing frozen bubbles.

To blow frozen bubbles, I used dishwashing soap and a drop of glycerin（甘油） to make it even better. I chose a place out of the wind, and blew bubbles the same way I always do. I watched to see what would happen. Here’s what I learned.

If the temperature is low enough, the skin of the bubbles frosts over (结霜), becoming cloudy instead of clear. And what about those rainbow swirls（旋转） you see in soap bubbles? The rainbow colors stay even when the bubbles frost, but they don’t swirl anymore. The bubbles still stay in the air. They don’t fall to the ground any faster than they would on a warm summer day.

When these frozen bubbles break, they don’t turn into small water drops as summer bubbles do. They turn into flashing rainbow confetti（碎屑） and move slowly to the ground. Sometimes a frozen bubble will roll across the snow without breaking. If nothing disturbs the bubble, it may stay there for a long time. Sometimes I could catch a bubble and hold it until the heat of my hand made it pop.

I learned another thing about blowing frozen bubbles. It’s so interesting that I want to try it again next year.

【1】It is the perfect time to blow frozen bubbles on a ___________day.

A.cold winter B.warm spring C.hot summer D.sunny autumn

【2】When the frozen bubbles break, _________.

A.they make a big sound B.they turn into small drops

C.they fall to the ground like rain D.they become rainbow confetti

【3】The purpose of the passage is _______.

A.to learn how to do a science experiment

B.to show the experiment of blowing frozen bubbles

C.to discover games that are fun to play in the snow

D.to invent a new kind of soap that makes stronger bubbles

22、A famous teacher was speaking to the students at our school. He began his lesson by holding up a ¥ 100 bill. Then he said to the three hundred students, “Who would like this  ¥ 100 bill?” The students began to put up their hands at once.

Then he said, “I am going to give this ¥100 to one of you, but first, let me do this.” He then made the bill into a ball. Then he said, “Who wants it now?” The hands went back into the air.

“Well,” he said, “what if I do this?” and he dropped it on the floor and stepped on it. He picked up the dirty, crumpled bill and said, “who still wants it?” Hands went back into the air.

“My friends,” he said, “you have learned a valuable lesson today. No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not go down in value. It was still worth ¥100!”

Many times in our lives, we are dropped , crumpled, and stepped on by the chances we take and the things that happen to us. We feel as if we are worth nothing. But remember, no matter what has happened to you, you will never lose your value: you are always valuable to those people who love you.
