"Put scissors in rice, it's amazing, not many people know about it, and it solves the problems of every household"
Introduction: Magical rice scissors
As a child, I was always fascinated by the little tricks that adults said. These seemingly ordinary but full of wisdom tips make life more convenient and interesting. And what I want to share with you today is a life tip that I personally experienced - "put scissors in rice".
First, set off
The story begins on a cold winter. I remember it was a cold snap and the whole city was covered in a thick layer of snow. The heating in the home hums faintly from time to time, as if telling the story of winter.
One day, I picked up the scissors draped over the couch and prepared to cut my hair. But when I opened the scissors, I found that there was a layer of rust on the iron edge of the scissors. I anxiously searched for all the tools I had in my house, trying to find a solution to this problem, but to no avail.
2. Encounter the miracle of rice
Just when I was about to give up, I remembered a trick that an old guy had told me – "put scissors in the rice". I thought, maybe that's the solution to rusty scissors!
I quickly took out a bag of rice and buried the scissors in the rice grains. Then, I waited patiently for the day.
The next day, when I took out the scissors, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the rust on the iron mouth was gone, and the scissors were shiny like new!
3. Explore the science behind it
I was so curious about this amazing phenomenon that I started looking for the science behind it. Through researching and talking to professionals, I learned that there is a scientific principle behind this - the starch in rice has the effect of absorbing water, which is one of the culprits of rust. When the scissors are submerged in the rice, the rice absorbs moisture from the surface of the scissors, which stops the rust of the ironware.
Behind this simple but effective trick, it turns out that there is such an esoteric scientific truth!
Fourth, rich application scenarios
This tip isn't limited to scissors. In my life, I have also found many other items that can be used this method, such as pens, iron spoons, and even the surfaces of small household appliances.
Once, I found that my fountain pen had a rusty nib because it had not been used for a long time. So I followed the same method and put the pen in the rice, and to my surprise, in less than a day, the tip of the pen was shiny like new!
V. Conclusion
Life is full of tricks, and "put scissors in rice" is one of them. This simple and effective method not only solves the common problems in our lives, but also gives us a new perspective on the understanding of everyday objects.
Therefore, whether it is in family life or at work, we should keep a curiosity, keep exploring, keep learning, and believe that there will always be unexpected gains and surprises waiting for us!
