Most of us know that when we drink a hot cup of coffee, we run the risk of hurting our mouth. ____16____ But does blowing on hot food really make it cooler?

When we just leave that food alone, it will still cool down as it gives its heat to the bowl. ____19____
The hotter the food or drink is, the bigger the temperature difference (差异) is. And that makes it cool down faster when we blow on it. But if it is just warm, the temperature difference isn’t big enough for blowing to help much.

【答案】例文
School Uniforms
Wearing school uniforms or not is a hot topic in our school recently, so I did a survey about it among the students, and here are the results.
Half of the students like school uniforms, believing they are beautiful with nice colors and tidy designs. They think uniforms can even serve as sportswear, making them look energetic and fitting their age. However, 30% of the students dislike uniforms, complaining they are uncomfortable, monotonous in style, and out of fashion. They argue that students’ clothes should be diverse to make life more colorful. Additionally, 20% of the students hold no opinion on this issue.
In my view, school uniforms symbolize unity and discipline, but it’s also important to consider students’ preferences for style. Maybe schools can improve designs to balance practicality and fashion.
