本文讲了一个小实验：如何能够让土豆在盐水中漂浮。

1. C细节理解题。第四步提到了将水顺着勺子背面倒入罐子中，接着应是第五步的操作，即把土豆放人罐子中。

2. D细节理解题。由实验第四步"…so that the two liquids will not mix together."可知，慢慢地把水倒人罐中是为了防止两种液体混合在一起。

3. B细节理解题。"Add 1/3 cup of salt."是第二步。故答案为B项。

4. A词义猜测题。由"Do not drop it."可推知，要小心地放土豆，才能保证土豆掉不下来。carefully与gently意思相近。

5. C推理判断题。该实验通过土豆可以漂浮在盐水中说明，盐水的浓度比淡水的浓度大。

There are many interesting science experiments out there for young kids. You can surprise your friends and teachers with them. All you have to do is to put a little effort into it and you should have no problem coming up with an in?teresting science experiment. One such experiment is to show your friends and teachers that you can make mothballs (棒脑丸) dance!If you want to do it,first,be sure that you have got all the necessary sci?ence kits for your science experiment.

What you need for this experiment is a glass filled half full with water. Add a little bit of vinegar to your glass of water,about 1/3 or 1/4 of a cup (60 ml) ,and one teaspoon (10 ml) of baking soda,and then carefully stir the mix?ture. Drop a few mothballs into the glass and have your audience watch. As long as the surfaces of the mothballs become fairly rough,they should begin to bounce up and down in the glass.

You can also do a similar experiment with raisins (葡萄干) and clear pop,such as Sprite. In this experiment,all you have to do is to fill a glass with Sprite and drop a few raisins into it. The raisins should begin to bounce up and down in the glass of Sprite. You can also replace the raisins with mothballs and you should get the same effect in the Sprite. This project works because the irregular surfaces of the mothballs and the raisins hold some C0₂ bubbles (气泡) ，causing them to bounce up and down in a dancing motion.
