Ice-cream is a delicious frozen treat that comes in a many different colors and flavors. Two of my favorite flavors are strawberry and chocolate. Though both of these flavors are delicious, strawberry may contain pieces of fruit while chocolate usually will not. Even though more chocolate ice-cream is sold across the country annually than strawberry, each flavor tastes great inside of a milk shake.

The ice-cream shop around the corner from my house has the best ice-cream in the city. When you first walk inside, there is a long chrome counter with matching stools extending to alongside the far wall. Right where the counter stops, the booth seating begins. There are lots of old-timey knickknacks on the walls and chrome napkin holders on all the tables. My favorite part of the shop is behind the counter glass, where they keep all of the ice-cream flavors. A rainbow of delicious sugary flavors is kept cool and delicious behind the counter glass.

Freezer burn may have wasted more ice-cream than sidewalks. If you don’t know, freezer burn is when ice crystals form on the surface of ice-cream. These ice crystals can ruin the texture and flavor of the ice cream. But you can prevent freezer burn. Since freezer burn is caused when melted ice-cream is refrozen, rather than eating your ice-cream from the container as it melts, scoop your ice-cream into a bowl and put the container back in the fridge immediately. Doing this ought to help you solve your issues with freezer burn.

No one knows the true origin of ice-cream, but the first published ice-cream recipe appears in “Mrs. Mary Eales's Receipts,” a cook book that was printed in London in 1718. Sometime around 1832, an African American confectioner named Augustus Jackson created multiple ice cream recipes and invented a superior technique to manufacture ice cream. Ice cream soda was invented around 1874, but the real breakthrough may have been at the 1904 World’s Fair in St. Louis, Missouri, when the American ice-cream cone was unveiled!

Have you ever had an ice-cream headache? That’s when a painful sensation resonates in your head after eating something cold (usually ice-cream) on a hot day. This pain is produced by a nerve center in the roof of your mouth. The nerve center is overreacting to the cold by trying to heat your brain. Ice-cream headaches have turned many smiles to frowns.

It was the most beautiful banana split that I had ever seen. In the middle of the bowl, there were three scoops of ice-cream: chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla. On top of the ice-cream were a banana and a thick web of chocolate and caramel sauces. A huge puff of whipped cream covered the sauces and a handful of crushed nuts dappled the whipped cream. On top of it all was a cherry, but I’ve never liked the soggy squish of cherries.

Most of the other foods we think of as "nuts" are not really nuts at all. Peanuts, for example, usually have two seeds and break open easily. They are technically a legume because they grow in a pod. This is the same family of plants that produce their fruit (often beans) in a pod. Peanuts have more in common with snow peas than actual nuts.

On February 18th, 2021, NASA's new rover, Perseverance, arrived on Mars, a neighboring planet in our solar system. During a seven month journey, it traveled 470 million kilometers (300 million miles) to reach Mars. The exploration robot landed in a region called the Jezero Crater. Near the planet's equator, the crater is 45 kilometers wide (28 miles). Perseverance will spend two years searching for evidence of microbial life that could have existed on Mars billions of years ago. Learning more about the composition of Mars can help scientists better understand the planet's history.

You might've seen the famous poster of Rosie the Riveter. She wears a red bandanna, blue overalls, and flexes her arm muscle. Above her is the saying "We Can Do It!" During World War II, this image represented the millions of female laborers. As men were off to war, women took their place in the factories and U.S. military businesses.

However, the famed Rosie image misses something. More than 500,000 of the women working at this time were "Black Rosies." They worked tirelessly in shipyards, factories, offices and elsewhere. All the while they fought both the foreign enemy abroad and the enemy of racism at home.

Which supporting detail BEST supports the main idea that Black women helped to support the war effort during WWII?

What do you think of when you hear the word "zoo?" Do you picture a nice habitat or a spacious enclosure? Perhaps you think a zoo is a vacation for animals before they are returned to the wild? These ideas couldn't be further from the truth. Many animals who live in zoos never return to the wild. Zoos are ultimately harmful to animals for three main reasons. First, zoos breed animals inhumanely. Second, they do not effectively help animals get back into the wild. Third, they do not provide enough resources for the animals in their care. For these reasons, zoos should be shut down and banned, or stopped altogether.

Which supporting detail BEST supports the main idea that zoos should be banned?

Which supporting detail does not support the main idea?

Main idea: Technology can help students learn.
