Californian Max Park can solve a Rubik’s Cube faster than anyone. On June 11th, 2023, Max solved the 3×3×3 cube in just 3.13 seconds. He broke Chinese Yusheng Du’s record from 2018 of 3.47 seconds. It’s a new world record! Max is autistic. When he was a young child, small hand movements and social interactions were difficult. His parents wanted to help him, so they gave him a Rubik’s Cube. It was good practice. Max’s mother learned how to solve the Rubik’s Cube from a YouTube video, then she taught Max. He became very good at it. At age 10, Max went to his first competition. Did he win? No, but he loved it. Today, Max is one of the best “speedcubers” in the world. He holds records with many different sizes of cubes, like 4×4×4 and 7×7×7. Speedcubing helps Max with his hand movements. It also helps him with social interactions. You can find more information about Max in the Netflix documentary, The Speed Cubers. to solve résoudre everyone tout le monde faster than anyone plus vite que n’importe qui (he) broke (ici) (il) a battu (she) taught (elle) a appris à did he win a-t-il gagné (he) holds (il) détient sizes des tailles Wachiwit/Shutterstock a person, place or thing.

Lucy Hughes, a British student, wanted to help the environment. So, she created a new type of plastic from fish waste! Lucy’s product is called MarinaTex. It is made from fish skin, fish scales and red algae. These natural materials are biodegradable. Lucy mixed them to make a strong and flexible film like plastic. This plastic doesn’t pollute the environment. It breaks down in less than six weeks, it doesn’t leave dangerous chemicals in nature, it is safe for animals and people, and it is stronger than plastic. It’s the perfect plastic! Will MarinaTex replace other plastics?

If you go to New Zealand, you must visit Waitomo. Why? Because that’s where the glowworms live! What’s a glowworm? It’s a tiny bioluminescent creature that lives underground. They only exist in New Zealand in the Glowworm Caves. But you won’t only see glowworms at Waitomo. You’ll also see stalagmites and stalactites in Aranui Cave, and beautiful cave formations in Ruakuri Cave. Here’s a fun fact: one of the cave chambers in the Glowworm Cave, called The Cathedral, is perfect for recording music. the glowworms les vers luisants tiny minuscules underground sous terre the caves les grottes (you) won’t only see (tu) ne verras pas seulement recording enregistrer Tomas Bazant/Shutterstock Shaun Jeffers/Shutterstock 5 GO ENGLISH!

I love you!” How did this special day for dads begin? The first modern Father’s Day celebration was on June 18th, 1910, in Spokane, Washington in the United States. A young American woman, Sonora Smart Dodd, wanted to honor her father. Why? He was a Civil War veteran. He was also a widower with five children and a good father. She planned the celebration for June 5th because he died on that date, but the pastor couldn’t come on the 5th. So, the celebration was on the third Sunday in June in that year. Now, Father’s Day is always on the third Sunday in June in a lot of English-speaking countries. The United States, the United Kingdom, South Africa and Canada all celebrate on the third Sunday in June. But Australia and New Zealand celebrate on the first Sunday in September. How can you show your dad you love him? Invite him to a barbecue, take him to a sports event, write him a story, a poem or a song, or just make him breakfast in bed. And, give him a kiss and hug, of course! Happy Father’s Day! LightField Studios/Shutterstock in the world? Avez-vous écouté cet article ?

Here’s an example: when leaves fall from trees, bacteria decompose them on the ground. Then, nutrients go into the soil, and help plants and trees grow. What things are biodegradable? Human and animal waste, plant products, dried leaves, grass, fruit, flowers, food waste, wood and dead creatures are 100% biodegradable. What things are not biodegradable? Aluminum cans, plastic bags and bottles, straws, light bulbs, nylon, diapers, batteries and tires are either not biodegradable, or they take a very long time to decompose. How long does it take for things to decompose? Aluminum cans take 200 years, diapers take 500 years and tires take 80 years. Some things never decompose, like light bulbs and batteries! What can you do to help the environment? Use biodegradable products. If the product you need isn’t biodegradable, use an alternative. For example: why buy single-use batteries when you can buy rechargeable batteries? If we all make an effort, we can help the planet! You know the word ‘biodegradable’, right? Of course you do! But what does the word really mean? I AM CONTRIBUTOR/Shutterstock GBJSTOCK/Shutterstock GO ENGLISH!

Do your grandparents say, “When I was your age, it was more difficult for children”? It’s true! A long time ago, schools were different fromtoday.Itwasn’teasytohaveaneducation. Today, all British children have an education. Some children learn at home, but most children go to school. In the UK, in 1880, a new law said all children between 5 and 10 must go to school. Before that law, a lot of children worked in factories or on farms! In 1918, the law changed again. It said children must continue school until 14.Today, children must be 18 before they stop school. Before 1915, there was no school bus. Children walked to school. Some children walked many kilometers every day. They walked even if it rained or snowed! What about classroom materials? Over 100 years ago, children wrote on slates with chalk. A slate was a piece of stone, like a small board. Later, children used paper and dipping pens. What’s a dipping pen? It’s a pen you must dip in ink. Imagine the mess! Children used these pens until the 1950s and 60s. In the 1980s, schools had one or two computers. Today, you’re lucky –– you can use computers, laptops, and tablets in class! What do you prefer? School today or school before?
