Why do plants grow in some places but not in others? Why does some land have so many plants growing on it, while other land has almost no plants growing on it at all?
To grow, plants need several things. One is warmth. In very cold places almost nothing grows. Plants also need water. In very dry parts of the Earth only a few unusual plants can grow. That's why there are almost no trees or grass in dry deserts.
Plants must also have a place to put down their roots and grow. They find it difficult to grow on hard land. The town is built(被建立) on hard land. The plants there have only the soil between the cracks of the stones to grow in.
Another thing plants must have before they can grow is food. What will happen if we try to make things grow on the sandy beach? A few plants, such as grass, will grow in sand, but most plants won't. Even if the weather is warm enough and we water the plants each day, many of them will die because the sand on this beach has almost no food for plants.
Do you miss the great snacks you had when you were a kid? Do they help you remember your happy childhood?
Sugar Figures | In the old days, there were always some people making sugar figures at the school gate. The maker would take a little maltose (麦芽糖) with a small spoon and draw a figure such as the Monkey King and the White Dragon. It was not expensive, only 1 yuan for each. |
Bubble Gum | Almost every kid loves bubble gum and kids often gathered together to see who got the largest bubble. I still remember my cousin once blew a big bubble and then it broke! Her face was covered with gum. It was cheap. I could get two for 1 yuan. |
Baby Face Ice Cream | It tastes delicious but a little expensive. I remember the price was 2 yuan for each piece which was not easy for me to buy those days. Each time I got one, the happiness would last for several days. |
Malt Sugar Candy | Malt sugar candy is usually called Tangguar in northern China and is offered during the days just before the Spring Festival. It's delicious and cheap, and you could get five pieces for 1 yuan. My friends and I often shared Tangguar with each other in the past. |
