To find out whether orange juice and oil
dissolve in water,we did an experiment in the
chemistry class.
Firstly,we prepared the following apparatus:
test tubes and droppers.Secondly,pour water
into two test tubes.Make sure the water level
is equal in either tube.Put a drop of orange
juice into one tube,and a drop of oil into the
other.Finally,leave the tubes for five minutes.
Five minutes later,the orange juice has
dissolved.However,the oil remains on the
surface.
Then we draw the conclusion that the
orange juice dissolves in water quickly while
the oil is hard to dissolve in water.

1.It looks like she has just flown down out
of the sky and is standing on a ship.Her head
and arms are missing,but you can imagine her
holding her arms up high,celebrating the
result of an ancient battle.And just look at
how her dress is being folded by the wind!I
really can't believe she's made of stone.The
skill of the sculptor is just incredible.
2.The painting is a lot smaller than you
would expect,and is protected by glass.But
from here I can get a good view to show you.
When I look into her eyes it seems she has a
mind of her own!One moment she seems to
be laughing at me,but then again I catch a
sense of sadness in her smile.I guess that's
why she attracts so many visitors every day.
