What do you get if you cut the Moby’s band along the middle? A. A long piece of paper. B. Two long pieces of paper. C. Two Moby’s Bands. D. One large twisted ring. 【查看更多】

 

题目列表(包括答案和解析)

A

  Take any long piece of paper. Now glue the ends of the paper together. You have made a ring.

  Take a second long piece of paper. Twist(turn round)the paper once and glue the ends together. Now you have made a Mobius band. For people who study math,this band is special.

  This strange band was first made in the 1800s by a German man named August Mobius. Mr Mobius studied math. He wanted to find a way to prove how this band works with math. Believe it or not,this band has only one surface. You can find t his out for yourself.

  If you draw a line on the surface of the paper before you twist and glue it,the line is only on one side of the paper. The paper has two surfaces. However,if you draw a line after you make the Mobius band,you can follow the line around all sides of the paper. In other words,the Mobius band must have only one surface.

  It is also kind of fun to see what happens when you cut the band. If you cut the Mobius band in half once down the line you dfew,you do not get two Mobius bands. Instead,after you cut the band,it turns into one large twisted ring. Then,if you cut this ring in half along the middle of the band again,you get two connected Mobius bands.

  The cost of raising a child from birth to age 18 is about $ 160,140! That doesn't even touch college tuition.For those with kids, this figure might lead them thinking how much they could have banked.For others, that number might confirm the decision to remain childless.

  But $160,140 isn't so bad if you break it down.It translates into $ 896.66 a year, $741.38 a month, or $171.08 a week.That's a mere $24.44 a day! Just over a dollar an hour.

  Still, you might think the best financial advice says don't have children if you ever want to be "rich".It is not.

  What do you get for your $160,140?

  ●Naming rights.

  ●Giggles under the covers every night.

  ●More love than your heart can hold.

  ●Kisses and hugs.

  ●Endless wonder over rocks, ants, clouds, and warm cookies.

  ●A hand to hold usually covered with jam.

  A partner for blowing bubbles, flying kites, and building sandeastles.

  For $160,140, you never have to grow up! You get to finger-paint, carve pumpkins, play hide-and-seek, and never stop believing in Santa Claus.You have an excuse to keep reading the Adventures of Piglet and Pooh, watching cartoons , going to Disney movies, and wishing on stars.

  For $160,140, you get to be a hero just for taking the training wheels off the bike, and coaching a baseball team that never wins but always gets treated to ice cream regardless.

  You get a front row seat to history; to witness the first step, first word, first date, and first time behind the wheel.

  You get to be immortal(不朽的).

  You get another branch added to your family tree.

  You get an education in nursing, criminal justice and communications that no college can match.

  In the eyes of a child, you rank right up there with God.

  You have all the power to correct a mistake, scare away the monsters under the bed, patch a broken heart, police a party, and love them without limits, so one day they will, like you, love without counting the cost.
