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
The answer is yes. When we blow air over hot food, we’re sending air close to our body temperature and using it to replace (代替) warmer air. ____17____
Think of it this way: If we have a hot bowl of soup in a warm room, it will take some time to cool down. ____18____
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.
____20____ Cutting hot food into smaller pieces or spreading it out on the plate will help it lose heat more quickly.
根据材料内容,从下面五个选项中选出能填入文中空缺处的最佳选项,使文章意思通顺内容完整。
A. That’s why we blow on it to make it cooler.
B. But blowing on it makes it cool down faster.
C. Another good way of cooling hot food is to increase its surface area (增加表面积).
D. Then the air around the hot food is cooler, so it helps the food cool down faster.
E. But if we put that same bowl in a cold room, it will grow cold much more quickly.

【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.
