有一天,奶奶说她脚踝疼,让我们兄妹帮她按一下,我二话不说,来到奶奶旁,让奶奶坐在床上,我来帮她按一下。我用手按呀按,奶奶夸我按得真好,听了这句话,我心里美滋滋的。正在我想的时候,远处传来妈妈的声音:“宇龙,去扫扫晒谷坪。”我胸有成竹地想:“我做事情做得这么好,扫地也难不倒我。”于是,我拿起扫帚去扫地,我扫呀招聘,妈妈过来一看,大喊:“我的仔仔呀,别太用力,你看,灰都到客人吃的东西上面了!”“哦,我知道。”我低下头说。说完,妈妈才气愤地走掉,我听了妈妈的.教诲,我决定再扫一遍,而这一遍得扫轻点,以免又扫出灰来。我再次扫呀扫,可这次,有些垃圾都扫不起来,我一下子发火了,正想把扫帚扔到地上,可仔细一想:是自己没控制好力度,如果控制好了力度,那应该一下子就扫好了。于是我决定再扫一遍,这次一定要控制好力度。我扫呀扫,这次,我终于成功了,而且扫得很快,足有一个篮球场大的晒谷坪,我五六分钟就扫干净了。
如果你是我,你发生过这样的成长故事吗?
冰淇淋是生活中不可缺少的一道美食。夏天没胃口时,尝些冰淇淋,是一个迅速补充体力降低体温的好方法。尤其对小朋友来说更是挡不住的诱惑,聪明的妈妈能在小朋友不愿吃饭时,偶尔改变方式以冰淇淋取代主食,同样能摄取营养和热量,漂亮的颜色又让人产生食欲。
你知道吗?美国每年能销售10亿加仑的冰淇淋,8%的牛奶最终变成冷冻食品。如今,各种各样的冰淇淋店更是遍布世界。现在就让我们一起看看冰淇淋的历史吧。
The earliest reports of people enjoying flavored ice desserts come from the Romans and the Chinese. Marco Polo returned from his famous expedition with fruit-flavored ices, reporting that Asians had been making them for thousands of years. These delicacies became popular in France in the 1500s, but only among royalty. Over the next few centuries, the process of making them evolved from hauling mountain ice to salt/ice freezing methods. Cream was introduced as an ingredient, and by the 1700s, people were enjoying a dessert that was very similar to today's ice cream.
The hand-cranked ice cream freezer was first developed by Nancy Johnson in 1846. Ice was readily available from large warehouses in that era, so ice cream became a treat that could be enjoyed by almost anyone, not just the rich. Ice cream making was revolutionized again in 1851, when Jacob Fussel started the first wholesale ice cream manufacturing operation in Baltimore, Maryland. Fussel's dairy business had excess cream and he couldn't figure out what to do with it. He tried using it to make ice cream, and before long his ice cream business outsold the rest of the dairy.
The business slowly evolved for the next few decades. Manufacturing methods and ingredients improved, while refrigeration technology became cheaper and more efficient. By the 1920s, home refrigerators and freezers became more common, which gave the ice cream industry another boost. Sugar was rationed in the US during World War I, but the ice cream industry convinced the government that ice cream was an "essential food”. Ice cream factories were allotted sugar rations and production continued.
Ice cream increased in popularity until the Depression years caused a drop in sales for virtually all non-essential goods. Sales increased in the years leading up to World War II before leveling off in the post-war years. The rise of the giant supermarket created demand for cheaper, mass-produced ice cream, but quality suffered. The 1960s saw a resurgence in "premium"ice cream, while the following decades saw the market fragment into low-fat varieties for the health-conscious, including frozen yogurt, fruit bars, ice milk, fat-free ice cream, and dozens of other varieties. However, ice cream still makes up about 60 percent of the market share among frozen desserts. While ice cream is enjoyed worldwide, it has become an American tradition
无论是海棠般的红色,还是晚霞般的粉色,雪花般的.白色,都是那么娇艳,它无论身在何方,总会增添一份美丽的花影……
那是个花意正浓的日子,我跑到荷花池边静观。
放眼望去,一片花的海洋,挨挨挤挤色彩纷呈,恍若仙境。一朵朵荷花露出自己娇艳的花瓣,在阳光的照耀下左右摇摆,一个个向我点头示意。粉色的花瓣在蓝天白云的衬托下显得异常美丽。微风吹过,像母亲的手在抚摸它的脸颊。在风中,荷花摇摆着纤细的身姿,好似一位亭亭玉立的少女,随风跳着婀娜多姿的舞蹈,让多少人驻足痴望。有的荷花才露出一两瓣儿,含苞欲放,娇滴滴的,正如一位害羞的小姑娘,那么稚嫩,那么可爱……
不知从哪飘来一阵雾,不一会,便下起了蒙蒙细雨。雾里看花,雨中赏花更是别有一番滋味。一位位白衣仙子,在雨中吸收着甜美的甘露。我仿佛自己也是其中的一员,随风跳着舞蹈,陶醉于此中……
雨过天晴,我这才醒过来,抬头一看,天边出现了一道绚丽的彩虹在荷花池上照耀着荷花,形成一幅美丽的图画。
我爱你,荷花,这个大自然的舞蹈演员。你的美丽让我陶醉,更爱你那“出淤泥而不染”的高风亮节!
其实荷花不止在小池中,它也在生活里……
