英语翻译
Pennies (硬币、零钱)are worth saving.If you find a pen ny ,pick it up,and some day you could have a mil lion pennies,like students at a primary school in Logan,Utah
Eight years ago ,a student ,in Dave Jorgensen 's fifth-grade math class asked ," What does a million look like?"
"Let 's find it out ," he answered ,and suggested a penny collection.
Some students emptied their piggy banks ； some collected pocket money,and some put in leftover lunch money.And as the shiny copper pile grew,the cents helped them make sense of math.They learned a million pennies weigh more than three tons ,would pile up over a mile high ,and would stretch (伸展)three
miles long.And that they' d need a container capable ( 能够)of holding a cubic(立方)yard to hold them.
"Wow " the students shouted in surprise.
Does the lowly penny really add up?While not everyone even takes up a lowly penny,organizations like McDonald's and UNICEF(联合国儿童基金会）know its value (价值).They use penny harvests to raise money for everything from college scholarships (奖学金)to housing for the home less.
Last June the students collected the millionth penny.They plan to put a million pennies towards building a school in a third-world country."It started as a math project,"says the headmaster ," and ended as a lesson in charity."

硬币值得收藏.如果你发现一枚硬币,捡起来,这样有一天你就会像犹他州罗岗市一所小学里的学生们一样有一百万枚硬币.
八年前,在戴夫·约根森的五年级数学课上,一个学生问：“一百万是什么样子的?”
他回答：“让我们来看看.”并建议大家收集硬币.
一些学生清空了他们的存钱罐；另一些存起了零花钱,还有一些存起了吃午饭剩下的钱.这些闪亮的铜币越积越多,它们让学生们了解了数学的意义.他们学到了一百万枚硬币达三吨多重,可以堆一英里多高,还可以伸展成三英里长.他们需要一个能够装下1立方码的容器才能把所有硬币放进去.
“哇!”学生们惊奇地叫道.
小小的硬币真的能加在一起?并不是每个人都会拿起一枚小小的硬币,但是像麦当劳和联合国这样的组织知道硬币的价值.他们通过收集硬币来为各种事情筹款,小到大学奖学金、大到为无家可归的流浪汉提供住所.
去年六月,学生们收集到了第一百万枚硬币.他们打算把这一百万枚硬币用来在第三世界国家建一所学校.校长说：“这是从一个数学作业开始的,这也是做慈善需要上的一堂课.”
