Chinese Inventions Notes
Ice Cream
Interesting Fact: It used to be called "cream ice" until a founder switched up the name. It's name has a special meaning but no one really know the true meaning.
-
Rating: I would give this 5 stars because it makes everyone happy. Ice cream is good and it spread really fast too.
-
Chinese Tea
-
Impact on World: We use tea for Starbucks, while getting cramps, or headaches. It had a really large impact because we use tea most of the time. There are also pills & mints.
Rating: I give this invention 5 stars because it is really helpful. When you have a cold, you can drink a tea and will help you get better.
-
Matches
-
Interesting Fact: They were known as "lucifer matches" but nobody called them just "matches" until 1830.
Impact on World: Now in days, when the power goes out we use matches to turn on candles. When its dark, we use them to walk around places and not trip over anything.
-
Cross Bow
-
Interesting Fact: The 'bow' was made of handmade wood, iron, or steel.
-
Rating: I would give this 4 stars because it was helpful and at the same time it was harmful. Some people would use them for war or protection.
Cannon:
Interesting Fact: A cannon is known for a large gun. Although they were use for wars, they were not legal. They were first made in China and were used with gunpowder.
Impact on World: They are used in the army for wars or battles. The impact was that they used them to defend themselves.
Rating: I would give this 3 stars because they were use for war. They would "defend" themselves but harm the others. They were useful when getting attacked by a large group.
-
Rockets
-
Interesting Fact: On ancient times, they were first called fire arrow.
Impact on World: It lets astronauts explore and learn new things around the planets. We can also view their videos and they can show us what they found. We can now use rockets to explore space.
Rating: I would rate this 2 stars because although rockets are kind of useful, they do a lot of damage to our climate. "The exhaust from space-ship engines does add several kilotons of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere every year." This tells us the damage it does when they launch a rocket.
Sunglasses
-
Interesting Fact: In ancient Rome the emperors were thought to look through ruby's at the gladiator games at the coliseum.
Impact on World: Now we use them so our eyes wouldn't get damage from the sun. We use glasses to view items closer.
-
Fireworks & Firecrackers
Interesting Fact: When the Chinese were writing on bamboo and would get bothered by mountain men, they would use firecrackers to scare them off.
Impact on World: We use them to celebrate. Fireworks are most used on Independence Day to celebrate or remember the Declaration of Independence.
Rating: I would rate this 3 stars. Yes fireworks are beautiful but dangerous. Kids can get harmed by these any time they are not being supervised by an adult.
-
Hand Fan
-
-
Impact on World: The invention of fans spread across the world and now we use them for hot days. Some people even use them just to have them at their homes because they look nice.
Rating: I would give this 3 stars because it was useful for hot days. They would use them if they live in the desert but it did not help out on much things.
Spring Rolls
-
Interesting Fact: Spring Rolls were eaten on the first day of Spring on the Chinese festival. They did this to ward off evil spirits.
Impact on World: After people started finding out about these rolls, they stared creating their own. For example now we see them on Panda Express and some other restaurants.
Rating: I would give this invention 5 stars because they are really good. They also have a really large population here in the Unites States.
