How do you like eggs There are many ways to prepare them,such as fried eggs, boiled eggs and more. In 2021, more than 86.3million tons of eggs were produced worldwide. Those eggs were eaten by hungry people around the world. Japan tops the lists of egg-eating countries with the average person eating about 320 eggs per year.
It is pleasant to eat eggs, but how much do you know about them Both the white and the yolk are delicious. They contain about the same amount of protein, too. Egg whites are more popular because each one contains just 15 calories. While egg yolks contain around 55 calories.
It takes a hen between 24 to 26 hours to lay one egg. The Araucana chicken can
lay eggs that can be blue or light green. And you can predict the color of an egg based on the color of the chicken's cars.
Now that you have learned more about some facts, let's dig up some Number one: brown eggs are healthier than white eggs. The truth is, both are equally good.

But a long-running study found no connection between eating eggs and heart attacks. Number three: an egg that floats in water is bad.In reality, just means that the egg is old.

and countries in the world, including Shenzhen. Siewert began playing the piano at the age of 6 and continued until 14. When she had the chance to pick.another instrument, she chose the harp for its beautiful shape as well as its beautiful sound. Becoming a harp artist was her dream. During her studies, she began performing in concert. As the only harp student, she got her first job to perform at a hotel in Oman. "I was able to make enough money to buy my own harp!" she recalled.

It has been more than 40 years since anyone has found a
Japanese river otter. It is just one of the animals that have been
listed as extinct(灭绝) or locally extinct in recent years. But the
development of technology could mean that the extinction of other animals is not likely to take place.
A huge challenge scientists face is watching endangered animals in order to help
them. This is where artificial intelligence (Al) has brought a turning point in the way
information on these animals is collected and studied. The Maui dolphin is one of the
most valuable and endangered dolphins in the ocean. With a collection of their summer behavior facts, researchers knew that there were just 54 of these mysterious
animals living off the coast of New Zealand. However, because of weather conditions,
researchers know almost nothing about their winter behavior. After four years of
developing and testing, these scientists were able to use a drone(无人机) with AI to
watch the dolphins no matter the season. The result was more wild areas provided for them to live.
In Zambia's Kafue National Park, home to more than 6,000 elephants, AI is being used to enhance traditional methods of preventing hunting. Cameras record any boats that try to enter the park. AI immediately notices this activity and warns park
guards, who deal with the hunters.
In Brazil, AI quickly studied over 150,000 satellite pictures, discovering that the
world's largest wetland has lost 74 percent of its surface water, Not until that discoveries did governments realize how serious the situation was. The use of AI has helped to speed action and increase our ability to protect the natural world for the future to come.

together. It will help you better understand how to use your new vocabulary.
