OK, that doesn't sound too bad. OK, ready for number two? Hmm, hmm.
好的,聽起來還不錯。好的,準備好聽第二個了嗎?是的。
Now this one is called ‘Unusual Measures of Lengths', and you basically use lots of paperclips.
現在這個叫做“不同尋常的長度測量”,基本上,你會用到很多曲別針。
The kids go around the class measuring things - you know, how long the desk is, and that sort of thing, um, and then they all compare their answers.
孩子們會在教室到處測量東西,比如課桌多長之類的。然后,他們會對比答案。
Er, and, basically, because not all paperclips are the same lengths, they should come up with some strangeanswers.
基本上,不是所有的曲別針都是一個長度,所以他們會得出一些奇怪的答案。
It's supposed to demonstrate the importance of having fixed units of measurement. Hmm, yes, that's not bad.
目的是證明用固定的單位進行測量很重要。
OK, now for number three you need rock salt or copper sulphate. Oh, I'm not sure about that!
好的,第三個實驗需要你準備石鹽或硫酸銅。這點我不敢確定。
Well, just put down the rock salt then, um, apart from that you only need a jar of water.
先記下石鹽。除了這個你只需要一罐水。
Um, and basically you dissolve lots of salt into the water and watch the crystals form, so it basically teaches the kids about growing crystals.
大體上,你在水中溶解很多鹽,看著它凝結成晶體狀,這是教孩子晶體的形成。
Yeah. I suppose it would be nice to grow something. Hmm, let's move on and have a look at number four.
是的,我想生成一些東西是好事。讓我們看看第四個實驗。
