The Wicked (邪恶的) Witch of the West asked the Winged Monkeys to break (毁坏) the Tin Woodman and the Scarecrow and tie (绑) the Lion with rope. The witch was afraid of the kiss mark on Dorothy's forehead and the magic (有魔力的) silver shoes on her feet.
The Wicked Witch made Dorothy cut wood for the fire and do all the work in the castle (城堡). She also tried to make the Lion pull her coach (四轮大马车), but he shouted at her. So she said, “If you do not do what I say, I shall not give you any food, and you will die. ”
The Lion said nothing. He did not pull the coach, but he did not die because Dorothy brought him food every night.
Dorothy had to work long hours, and she was very sad. Even Toto was sad because he saw Dorothy cry.
As for the Wicked Witch, she planned to take away Dorothy's magic shoes.
The problem was that she was too afraid of the dark to go into Dorothy's room at night. She was also afraid of water, so she never came near Dorothy when she was washing. One day, however, she had a plan. She put a piece of metal (金属) in the middle of the room. Then, using magic, she made the metal invisible (看不见的). When Dorothy came into the room, she did not see the metal and fell over it. The Wicked Witch ran up and pulled off one of the shoes at once.
Dorothy was very angry. “Give my shoe back to me!” she said.
“Never,” the Wicked Witch said. “And now, I have half of your power (魔力).”
Dorothy was so angry that she picked up a bucket (桶) of water near the door and poured the water over the Wicked Witch.
The witch cried, “Do you know what you did just now Now I shall melt (溶化). I shall die.”
And before Dorothy's eyes, the Wicked Witch began to melt, and soon there was only a pool on the floor.

At a middle school in Hangzhou, Zhejiang, an exciting thing happened on Jan. 30, 2024. The students weighed a pig!
The school does the activity once a year. Teachers and students work together to use science to weigh pigs. It first started in 2017. In the past, they used levers (杠杆) and Archimedes' principle (阿基米德原理). This time, students used Magdeburg hemispheres (马德堡半球) to do it.
First, the students needed to get two hemispheres and connect (连接) one to a cage with a pig inside. Then they could find out the pig's weight. However, the pig was quite big, so it was hard for students to get it into the weighing area.
“As the pig was about to go into the cage, it suddenly lay down and didn't move at all, ” Liu Nian, a 13-year-old student, said. Finally, they pushed it into the cage.
After trying a few times, the students found that the black pig weighed 165.3 kilograms. This was very close to the pig's real weight of 154.5 kg.
“We use what we learn from books to work out real problems. This makes science even more exciting,” another student said.
