food coloring will result in a stronger color and the vinegar helps make the colors brighter!
Step 3: Color the eggs. Put the eggs in the bowl and keep them fully in the water for at
least minutes. Turn them from time to time to make sure all sides get dyed. The longer you leave them in the dyes,
the darker the color will be.

Have you ever watched amazing drone (无人机) light shows? They’re really cool to watch! These shows often
happen during big events like the Olympics or national celebrations. People really love them.
You might be wondering how these shows work. Well, they use a lot of drones with bright lights on them. First,
someone programs a computer to tell the drones what to do. Then, that program goes to each drone. After that, people
on the ground use the computer to make the drones move. When everything is ready, the show starts. All the drones
fly up at the same time and move in the sky in a beautiful way.
The number of drones can make different effects. For example, some shapes need more drones than others.
Simple shapes need fewer drones, and more complicated (复杂的) shapes need more. The number of the viewers (观
众) and how far away they are also decide how many drones are needed so everyone can see the show well.
Even though these drone light shows are really cool, there are still ways to make them better. New tools and
technology can help make the shows even more amazing. Also, the people who design the shows are trying to find
new ways to make them even better.
26．What does the underlined word “them” refer to (指)?
A．The shows. B．The people. C．The events. D．The celebrations.
27．What is paragraph 2 mainly about?
A．The people who set up the programs.
公众号：初中英语助手B．The place to watch drone light shows.
C．The reason why drone light shows start.
D．The steps to make the drone light show.

C．What the show is for. D．How high the drones can fly.
29．According to the last paragraph, what can we expect in the future?
A．Lighter drones. B．Less expensive tools.
C．Smaller design teams. D．Greater performances.

A．Drones Shows B．Sports Shows

Many kids do housework, such as doing the dishes, making the bed, and washing the clothes. In exchange
(作为交换), they get some money or other computer time. Paying kids for housework is one of the most popular
topics. Some parents think kids should be paid for everyday housework because they can know about society's
rules earlier.
Scientists do research about it. 60% of people don’t think kids should get money for doing housework. Susie
Walton believes that it sends a message that they shouldn’t work unless they get something in return. “Doing
housework is a team job,” Susie Walton said. “A home is a living space for the family. It’s important for kids to

40% of people think it’s good to pay for kids to do housework. They say that this teaches kids real world
lessons about how people need to work to get money. There are also some apps that give kids points and gifts.
“The goal of the apps is to set a good example about jobs for kids,” said Chris Bergman.
