I frowned at mylf in the dressing-room mirror.I was wearing white tights,a white leotard,and a white swim cap that hid most of my hair.I was one of 10 snowflakes in my dance school's Winter Wonderland show.
"Grandma,I really don't feel like being in the show," I said.Grandma Lani looked up from what she was wing. "Why,mo'opuna？" Mo'opuna means "grandchild" in Hawaiian.Grandma Lani has always lived in Hawai'i. "You love to dance." I ud to love to dance.Then Ms.Tuttle gave the part of the Snow Queen to Christine Abrams.Christine got to wear a blue leotard and a feathery skirt that drifted out like a cloud every time she twirled.And she got to do a dance onstage all by herlf.The snowflakes just had to run and spin to look like a snowstorm.I sighed. "I don't like our dance.And no one would notice if I wasn't there.There are so many of us." "I would notice.So would your parents."
As Christine walked toward us,Grandma paud and smiled at her. "What a beautiful costume!" Christine glided away,her skirt waving behind her.I hung my head.Grandma took my hand. "What's bothering my Avery？" "And you won't be able to tell me apart from the other snowflakes," I whispered.
Grandma was about to speak.Then something outside the window caught her eye.She grabbed my hand and my coat and pulled me out of the dressing room and through the doors to the outside.It was snowing.Grandma held her breath and I suddenly thought of something. "Grandma,have you ever en snow before？" "No,mo'opuna.In Hawaii,it snows only on the very tops of mountains."
I had en snow lots of times,but now I tried to e it differently.Like it was new.I saw snowflakes twisting through the air in different directions,sparkling and shining at us.So many snowflakes coming together to create something magical. "Aloha," Grandma whispered to the sky.Aloha can mean many things,including "love," "hello," and "good-bye." "I don't know when I'll e something like that again." "I do," I said.I took Grandma Lani's hand and pulled her back inside.
When the stage lights came up and the music started,I spun and ran with all of the other snowflakes.I didn't care if Grandma Lani could e me.I was helping her e a snowstorm.

Although the weather is very hot now,the carnival of ice and snow is getting clor.The preparation work for Beijing Winter Olympic Games,which are expected to begin on Feb 4，2022，has entered its final stage.In January,2021，the ice-making work on the "Ice Ribbon"，a landmark venue for the Beijing Winter Olympics,was completed.
In the Winter Olympics,where races can be won or lost by a small time gap,tiny imperfections in the ice can make all the difference. "It's not just a hunk of ice like you'd n
ormally think of,like ice cubes sitting in your freezer," told Kenneth Golden,a US mathematician who studies the structures of ice. "It's a much more fascinating and complex substance than people would normally think."
The first step for building any ice rink is to purify the water to remove dissolved solids like salts and minerals.Such impurities don't fit in the regular hexagonal（六边形的）structure of ice that forms as water freezes.The more pure the water is,the more consistent the ice surface.
In addition to the need for excellence in the raw materials of ice-making,technology is also very important.As one of the most advanced technologies for winter sports venues,a carbon dioxide（CO2）cooling technology has been applied on a large scale for the Beijing Winter Olympic Games.CO2 is not new when it comes to ice-making.However,it has been gradually replaced by the man-made refrigerant,like Freon.
With increasing attention toward climate change,the old refrigerant has come into u again.As an element of the atmosphere,CO2 doesn't damage the ozone layer.Although CO2 is a greenhou gas,its greenhou effect is much lower than that of other synthetic
refrigerants.The Winter Olympics venues adopted CO2 instead of Freon as a refrigerant in ice-making,which will reduce carbon dioxide emissions greatly.
"We believe the technological innovations will bring Beijing 2022 to spectators all over the world in a more impressive way," told Gao Bo from the Media Operations Department of the Organizing Committee of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games.
8.What is the result of impurities in water for ice-making？ ______
A. The water isn't able to freeze completely.
B. The quality of the ice will be affected.感动人物事迹
C. The ice surface will be more consistent.
D. 碧生源减肥茶广告语It's likely for athletes to fall on the ice.
9.Why has CO2 cooling technology been applied for the Winter Olympic Games？ ______
A. It's the most advanced technologies for ice-making.
B. CO2北京亲子游 is more efficient than other refrigerants.
C. CO2 is more environmentally-friendly than Freon.
D. CO2 has already existed in the atmosphere.
10.What is Gao Bo's attitude to CO2 being applied to ice-making？ ______
A. Unclear. B. Oppod. C. Doubtful. D. Favourable.
11.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text？ ______
A. The Beijing Winter Olympic Games Is Coming.
B. Beneath Olympic Ice.
C. The U of Refrigerants in Olympic Games.
D. The Structure of Ice.
