Her chemistry teacher, Mr. Darwin, once said, “It’s okay to make mistakes because they can lead to new findings. And making mistakes is more fun than cleaning up. ” One day, Mr. Darwin said, “We will run the science station at our school’ s Autumn Festival. The station with the most visitors wins an ice-cream party.” He chose Libby, Rosa, and Finn to help with the station. The girls were excited. They picked three favourite experiments for the festival-making big bubbles (泡泡), mixing soft slime (史莱姆), and launching a rocket. “I can’t wait!” said Libby. The festival day finally came. All the stations were busy except the science station, so the girls decided to try something interesting. They made big bubbles first. People started to come over. Then, Rosa used salty water to make very soft slime. “Now for the rocket! If we use more baking soda (小苏打), the rocket might go higher,” said Libby. Unluckily, when Libby added the baking soda, an accident happened – water got on the kids. Everyone got wet and ran away. In the end, they had no visitors. The girls didn’t win. Libby felt sad. But Mr. Darwin told them, “You three did a great job!” “But we didn’t win,” mumbled (嘟囔) Libby. “That DOESN’T mean we can’t be proud of how hard you tried. We can have our OWN ice-cream party!” “We’ll get ice and milk! ” cheered the girls. “Yum. This is delicious, ” said Finn after tasting their homemade ice-cream. “It’s okay to make mistakes,” said Rosa. “And it’s so much more fun than cleaning up! ” smiled Libby. 11.

B Think of a world full of pops and laughter! That is the fun of bubble wrap (气泡包装), one of the best inventions ever. But did you know that it wasn’t made for popping in the beginning? This brings us to its funny story! Let’s learn more about it! In 1957, two engineers tried to invent a new kind of wallpaper. They put two shower curtains together with air bubbles between them. The result? A bumpy (不平整的), bubbly mess! Instead of cool wallpaper, they made something much more exciting. However, bubble wrap didn’t work as wallpaper at first. In fact, it wasn’t used for anything because it wasn’t flat! But when people saw it protected fragile things well, they sold it as packing material. Soon, people used bubble wrap to protect glass and electronics during shipping. But it wasn’t popular until people fell in love with its fun “pop”. They started popping it for enjoyment, making it a playful activity. Many say popping bubble wrap helps them relax by popping their worries away! People use bubble wrap for packing, making art projects, and as a fun toy. Some companies make bubble wrap so that you can pop it again and again, so the fun keeps going!

The Best Invention C. The Perfect Stress-relieving Toy D. The Fun Journey of Bubble Wrap C ① Throughout history, people have always looked for knowledge. This led to the creation of many important encyclopaedias. Ancient Rome ② The earliest encyclopaedia on record is Natural History by Pliny. He wrote about his knowledge of ancient Rome. Although many of his writings were true, some were hard to believe, like the Sciapodae people with one foot as big as an umbrella! However, Pliny never finished improving his work because he went to Pompeii in 79 A.D. to visit Mount Vesuvius and died in the eruption (火山爆发). Ancient China ③ From the 10th to the 17th centuries, the Chinese government asked many clever people to make encyclopaedias. In the 11th century, they wrote Four Great Books of Song to collect all the information about the new Song dynasty. In 1408, China completed Yongle Encyclopaedia. It was the largest encyclopaedia until Wikipedia came along about six hundred years later. Enlightenment Ideas (启蒙思想） ④ When printing became common, encyclopaedias grew popular and important. During the Enlightenment, a famous encyclopaedia called Encyclopédie came out in France in 1751. Editor Diderot wanted it to “change the way people think” and help the rising middle class teach themselves. Also, the ideas in the book encouraged people to question the king's rule. This helped lay the cultural foundation (基础) for the French Revolution (法国大革命). The Internet Age ⑤ As the world went online, knowledge grew, too. Internet encyclopaedias started in the early1990s. By 2001, Wikipedia came out. In 2004, it became the biggest encyclopaedia with 300, 000 articles. By 2022, it had 6.5 million articles with pictures, videos, and more, making a lot of information easy to find online. 21. What was the earliest encyclopaedia on record? A. Natural History. B. Four Great Books of Song. C. Encyclopédie. D. Yongle Encyclopaedia. 22. What was the largest encyclopaedia worldwide in the early 1980s? A. Wikipedia. B. Four Great Books of Song. C. Encyclopaedia Britannica. D. Yongle Encyclopaedia. 23. What can we infer from the fourth paragraph? A. French people were stupid at that time. B. Encyclopédie was an English encyclopaedia. C. Encyclopédie challenged the traditions of its time. D. The development of printing did not help people learn. 24. What can we learn from the history of encyclopaedias? A. People have never stopped looking for and sharing knowledge. B. Only intelligent and knowledgeable people can make encyclopaedias. C. Europe was the world’s education centre over the past two thousand years. D. Europeans and Chinese could not exchange information until the Internet age. 25. Where can you most probably find this article? A. From a story book. B. From an art magazine. C. From a newspaper. D.

Ancient China ③ From the 10th to the 17th centuries, the Chinese government asked many clever people to make encyclopaedias. In the 11th century, they wrote Four Great Books of Song to collect all the information about the new Song dynasty. In 1408, China completed Yongle Encyclopaedia. It was the largest encyclopaedia until Wikipedia came along about six hundred years later. Enlightenment Ideas (启蒙思想） ④ When printing became common, encyclopaedias grew popular and important. During the Enlightenment, a famous encyclopaedia called Encyclopédie came out in France in 1751. Editor Diderot wanted it to “change the way people think” and help the rising middle class teach themselves. Also, the ideas in the book encouraged people to question the king's rule. This helped lay the cultural foundation (基础) for the French Revolution (法国大革命). The Internet Age ⑤ As the world went online, knowledge grew, too. Internet encyclopaedias started in the early1990s. By 2001, Wikipedia came out. In 2004, it became the biggest encyclopaedia with 300, 000 articles.
