playing the Rubik’s cube.



                           There are different kinds of Rubik’s cubes in this


                   world, like 2 by 2, 3 by 3, Skewb, Skewb Daimond, and



                   Pyraminx. So far, I have played 2 by 2, 3 by 3, 4 by 4


                   cubes. The most recent addition to my collection is a 5



                   by 5 cube. My father bought it as a gift for me after we


                   rode bicycles to Tamsui together one Saturday



                   afternoon. And I am still trying to figure out how to


                   solve the 5 by 5 puzzle.



                           The world record of solving 3 by 3 Rubik’s cube is


                   4.9 seconds, 3by 3 cube blind-folded is 21.05 seconds.



                   I think the 3by 3 contest is the coolest, because when


                   you turn the 3 by 3 cube very fast, the audience can’t



                   see it very well, so they will say that you are a very


                   good player of the Rubik’s cube.



                           I think that when you try to turn the Rubik’s cube


                   to six sides, each side of one color only, you are using



                   your brain, and you will be smarter and smarter. I think
