Have you ever watched the television program called Good Life (生活智慧王)? In
that program, the hostesses share many examples of the use of science in our
1
everyday (daily) lives. 2 For 3 example/instance (例如), warm water is more than a
common thing. You can put some salt into warm water and gargle with it so as to 4 soothe
(to ease pain) your sore throat. 5In 6 addition (Besides), you can make a tangerine taste
better by putting it into warm water for 7 a 8 few (some) minutes. The warmth of the
water could make the tangerine 9 seem (to appear to be) less sour, 10 as 11 if 12 by
13
magic (就像被施了魔法一樣).
A banana is another thing 14  ( finding  founded  found) around your
house that can also 15 perform (to do something) magic. Just imagine that you 16 were
(be) late for an important meeting; 16 what’s 17 worse (to make things more serious),
you couldn’t find any shoe polish to shine your dirty leather shoes. What could you do in
this kind of 18 situation (condition)? Well, the solution 19 to this problem is to use a
banana peel! To get a pair of shiny leather shoes, you should 20 rub (to spread
something over something else) the inside of the peel all over the shoes first, and then use
a piece of dry 21 cloth (woven fabric made from cotton or a fiber) to polish them. The
special 22 chemical (something used to cause changes to atoms or molecules) “tannin”
in the banana peel would make you 23 discover (find/learn) that your shoes will shine
24
more 25 brightly 26 than 27 ever 28 before (比之前亮上許多).
These two tricks are not just the magic used to surprise us, but the examples of the
use of science. As you get to know more about the 29 secrets (something that is kept
unknown by other) of science, you will definitely 30 realize (to begin to understand) that
science is around our life!
