A Lake Inside a Mountain
1 Mount Mazama is in the state of Oregon. It takes a long time to
drive all the way up the mountain by car. At the top, visitors park their
cars and walk to the rim of a huge rock bowl. Inside the huge bowl is a
beautiful blue lake. 
2 Mount Mazama was once an active volcano. About 7,000 years ago a
huge eruption blew apart the top of the mountain. The mountaintop
broke into pieces and caved in. What was left was a great bowl in the
earth.
3 Over thousands of years, the bowl filled with rainwater and melted
snow. This bowl of clear blue water is called Crater Lake. The lake is six
miles wide. At its deepest point it is 1,932 feet deep. Crater Lake is the
deepest lake in the United States. Today it is the center of a national
park.
09R20222I
Crater Lake is located at the top of Mount Mazama. The lake is at an altitude of about
6,176 feet.

A Wise Teacher
1 Socrates was born in Athens, Greece, around 470 B.C. We don’t know
much about his early life. He is remembered as a great thinker and
teacher and is regarded by many people as one of the wisest men of all
time.
2 Socrates didn’t think he knew the answers to all the great questions
in life, such as what is right and what is fair. He believed that answers
came from thoughtful discussions. Crowds used to gather around him on
the streets of Athens and listen to him talk with people who thought
they knew everything. For example, he might ask someone, “What is
courage?” Then he would
examine the answer by
asking another question. He
would continue asking
questions about each
response until the person
finally realized that his first
answer had not been fully
correct. This method of
teaching by questioning is
still called the Socratic
method.
3 Socrates’s guiding rule
was “Know thyself.” He
believed that goodness comes
from knowledge and that wrongdoing is the result of ignorance, so no
one knowingly does wrong. He also taught that people have a duty first
to themselves rather than to the gods of the city or to the government.
4 Unfortunately Socrates’s teachings offended several important
Athenians. He was arrested on charges of corrupting the youth of
Athens and not believing in the gods of the city. He was tried and
condemned to death. Socrates was willing to die rather than give up
saying what he believed. He died in 399 B.C., leaving behind a wife and
three children.
5 Although Socrates never wrote down his ideas, his most famous
student Plato published many books about Socrates and his philosophy.
The books are in the form of dialogues in which Socrates talks with
others. Plato’s most renowned book is the Republic. The book is about
justice. It is still widely read and taught in schools today.
6 Socrates used to say that he had no teachings to offer, only
questions. Every time a teacher teaches by asking question after
question after question, the spirit of Socrates lives on.

Glass: A Fabulous Material
1 People have been making glass for thousands of years. Glass is used
in industry, for household goods, and even to make delicate jewelry and
artwork. Glass is used so often that our lives would be very different
without it.
The History of Glassmaking
2 It is likely that people first made glass in Syria or Egypt sometime
between 10,000 B.C. and 3000 B.C. By the fourth century B.C., Egypt had
become a glassmaking center. At first the Egyptians made only small
glass jewels and tiny glass pots. These objects were considered luxuries,
and only very wealthy people could afford them.
3 Around 300 B.C. glassblowing was invented. Glassblowing is the art
of shaping heated glass by blowing air into it through a tube. This
process expanded the possible uses of glass. A greater variety of items
could be made in an easier and less expensive fashion.
4 Rome became a center of glassmaking during the first few centuries
A.D. This period is often called the Golden Age of Glass. For the first
time, glassworkers were able to make clear glass in all kinds of shapes
that they decorated with paint or cutout designs.
5 Eventually glassmaking spread to other regions of the world. In 1535
Spanish craftspeople made the first glass in North America at Puebla de
Los Angeles in Mexico.
What Is Glass?
6 Before humans manufactured glass, nature made its own form of
glass. Sometimes when a lightning bolt strikes sand, the heat melts the
sand into long pieces of
glass. High temperatures
from volcanoes sometimes
melt sand into glass, too.
Early humans used this
type of glass, which is called
obsidian, for objects such as
arrowheads and money.
7 One way glass is made is
by combining three simple
materials: sand, soda ash,
and limestone. These
materials are heated by a
fuel source, such as wood,
coal, or natural gas, to a
temperature of 2,500
degrees Fahrenheit.
Some glass, a half-inch thick, will not break
even when a major-league pitcher throws a
baseball at it.

GR9/12 RPTE RELEASE '04 3/22/04 11:13 AM Page 22
Characteristics of Glass
8 People commonly think of glass only as windowpanes or drinking
glasses. However, glass can come in a multitude of colors. In fact, glass
objects can be found in almost any color. The structure of glass also
varies greatly. Glass can be spun finer than a spiderweb or molded into
a telescope lens that is as heavy as four elephants.
Uses of Glass
9 Ever since glass was first made, the process of glassmaking has been
continually improved. Corning Incorporated in New York has developed
more than 75,000 different kinds of glass. New kinds of glass are still
being invented, along with new uses for them.
10 Today, glass objects are everywhere, from food containers to
lightbulbs to windshields to mirrors. It is hard to imagine our lives
without glass. What would we do without it?

What a Sight!
1 The George Washington School had been standing for more than 100
years. The school building was in good shape, but behind it was an old
basketball court. The court’s blacktop had crumbled and was overgrown
with weeds. The fence around the court was battered, and parts of it lay
on the ground. The basketball hoops were bent and rusted.
2 One cold day in February,
Mr. Garson, a biology teacher,
was taking a walk during his
lunch break. He passed the
old basketball court. “What
an ugly sight!” he said,
groaning. As he stared at the
empty court, he had a vision.
He stopped and let the vision
take shape in his
imagination. In his mind, he
pictured something quite
different from what he
actually saw.
3 Mr. Garson asked the school board for money to turn his vision into a
reality. In April he organized a group of community volunteers to tear up
the old basketball court and haul it away. Then he persuaded a local
farmer to donate truckloads of good topsoil, which several students
spread over the lot. A group of parents volunteered to build a new fence
around the land. Mr. Garson purchased rakes, hoes, shovels, and
trowels. He also purchased seeds and seedlings. In May students
planted tomatoes, potatoes, corn, lettuce, onions, and peppers. In one
corner they planted herbs, such as basil, oregano, and parsley. In
another they planted a dozen kinds of flowers that would bloom through
the summer and fall.
4 Two students checked the garden and watered it every day. On
Saturdays throughout the summer, groups of students gathered to weed
the garden and harvest what was ripe.
5 In September students enjoyed eating fresh produce from the George
Washington garden for lunch. Most days there were freshly cut flowers
on the cafeteria tables.
6 “What a beautiful sight!” Mr. Garson proclaimed in a speech at the
first school assembly. “It proves that we can change things if we work
together toward a common goal.”
7 In late fall a local farmer plowed under the garden so that it would
be ready for planting again in the spring.
