As a country strong in math, China has many folk games filled with math wisdom. You may have played many of them before. Let's take a look at two of them.
Luban Lock Luban Lock was first created by Chinese carpenter Lu Ban about 2,000 years ago. It is said that Lu used six wooden pieces to make a toy that looks like a lock for his son. The lock has a lot to do with solid geometry (立体几何). It's hard to separate the six pieces. However, it is usually easier to unlock a Luban Lock than to put it back together. Now, there are Luban Locks made up of nine or more pieces. | |
Huarong Pass Huarong Pass is a traditional Chinese block-moving puzzle. Every block is named after a character in the book Romance of the Three Kingdoms, like Cao Cao, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun. To succeed in the game, players have to move the blocks to get "Cao Cao" out. This is a test of one's math knowledge, for example, of geometric area (几何面积). According to the Chinese Puzzle website, it takes at least 81 steps to set "Cao Cao" free. |

My parents usually celebrate a special day by enjoying a special kind of wine called Canadian ice wine.
My mother once told me the story of ice wine. To make it, people must freeze grapes on the vine. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Sometimes, a great new product is invented by accident. And that's exactly how we got ice wine.
In the 1700s in Germany, a man was away from his farm in autumn. The weather suddenly turned cold and his grapes froze when he came back. How terrible! Anyway, the man tasted the grapes. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}Then, he decided to use these grapes to make some wine. Guess what? {#blank#}3{#/blank#}for two centuries, Germany was the only place where ice wine was made.

Canada, and that's the main requirement for making ice wine. After hard work, some grape farmers found the best process. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}
The story of ice wine got me thinking. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} It's really hard to imagine the world without penicillin and the microwave. Penicillin has saved millions of lives. And the microwave has certainly changed the way we cook.
