On cold winter nights when I was a boy, Mom often let me help her make popcorn to eat when we watched television. Mom 53 it the old-fashioned way too. She caught a pan and lit the stove (火炉) under it. Then she 54 a bit of butter. Next, she poured a big handful of corn into the pan. Together we waited, listening to the oil sizzle (发嘶嘶声) 55 we heard the popcorn popping. Then we caught the pan and lid (密封盖), and then shook (摇晃) them over the fire to keep the popcorn from burning. Shake, shake and pop, pop, pop until the pan was full. 56 , Mom poured it all into a huge bowl and shook salt all over it.
After this, we all sat down in the living room, Dad in his armchair, Shoelace in her chair by the stove, and me, Mom, and my brothers on the sofa. There was always 57 popcorn for everyone to enjoy.
The funny thing is I can’t really remember a single one of the programs that we watched on TV on those nights. What I can remember clearly, however, is the 58 of the popcorn, the warmth of the bowl on my leg, the delicious taste of it, and most of all the joy I felt with Mom next to me. I felt so 59 , so safe, and so happy. There with my family all seemed right with the world.

We humans love music. But what about plants We just have to 182 .
A new report shows that nearly 67% of UK gardeners play music 183 their plants! Well, I know my granddad sings opera to his tomatoes. Many people do believe music helps plants to grow better. They’re said to grow well when exposed to classical music 184 are less interested in rock music!

They turn plant sounds 191 synthesis (合成) music. But the real voices of plants are much more interesting than we currently know. You can even buy an expensive machine that lets you listen to the ‘music’ of your houseplants.
