Children are amazing! They ①pick up languages so naturally and easily. Have you ever wondered why? It"s not because they have great natural language abilities. ② In fact, studies show that an adult"s potential (潜 能) to learn language is as good as a child"s. So why do children still seem to acquire (学到) languages more quickly than the rest of us? It"s because of the way they learn. Children learn by simply doing what comes naturally-they listen, copy and communicate. Let"s take a closer look at how children acquire languages. Perhaps we can discover a better, more "natural" way to learn English. Children don"t practice grammar drills, but use languages to talk about things that interest them. This helps them learn to express themselves. They don"t worry about inadequate (不足的) vocabulary or poor grammar. They find ways to express themselves, and they do it successfully. ③Students should pay more attention to genuine (真实的) communication. Look for chances to talk with people in English. If you can"t find a foreigner to talk to, talk with other English students instead. Start an English discussion group and chat about music, movies or whatever interests you. Don"t worry about making mistakes. The aim is to learn how to communicate easily and comfortably. Remember that you can communicate successfully even with a small vocabulary. Trust your own natural ability to learn English. You"ve got more potential than you probably realize! |

For years scientists have been arguing about whether nature or nurture (后天) decides what people will be like. Is it nature-what people are 1 with-that decides what they will be like? 2 is it nurture -what 3 to people when they are born -that decides what they will be like? Scientists have been studying twins to 4 if they can find the answer, because twins start out with the 5 DNA. Sometimes twins don"t live together at birth and grow up in different 6 and different places- so the nature is the same for both, but the nurture is different. When scientists 7 these twins in their later life, they some times find some surprising 8 . Jim Springer and Jim Lewis were adopted (收养) by two different families at birth.

Each twin had a son - one called his son James Alan and the 12 called his son James Alan, too. Their children each had a dog called "Toy". They even arrived at their first 13 in the same color of car. So far twin 14 seem to show that both nature and nurture are important.

It can make you confident when you are studying. But unluckily, most students don"t know how to take notes. If your teacher writes notes on the blackboard, that"s great. You can copy them or write down the mos t important facts of all in class. Different teachers do things differently. For example, some teachers may focus on (关注) lots of dates and facts in class, but they only write the important ones on the blackboard. Other teachers may not write anything down, but they may repeat them. Don"t try to write down every word in class, or you might miss some important points. Some students really learn better with the help of these notes. Don"t be afraid to ask your teacher to repeat what you"re missed. If your teacher speaks too fast and you can"t follow what he is saying, you can ask him after class. Comparing (对比) your notes with your classmates" can be good for your learning. It can also help you and your classmates correct some mistakes. Note-taking also needs organization. Keep notes for each subject in one place, so that you can find everything easily when a test comes. Good note-taking takes time. If you decide to recopy your notes every evening, you"ll surely have less time to watch TV. But you"ll save time in the coming test. | 1.

Its tasks are to study Mars" atmosphere and return photos to Earth. But before that "Mars Orbit Express" must travel about 100 hundred million kilometers and seven months. It reached Mars" orbit (轨道) in March, 2006. Mars and Earth have similar weight and size. However, Mars is closer to the sun than Earth. Mars is very cold. The average temperature is below 50℃. The temperature at noon only reaches 20℃ during a Mars day. Its atmosphere is mostly CO2. It has much sand and two moons---Phobos and Deimos. Scientists think Earth and Mars had similar beginnings 4.6 billion years ago. But while Earth supports millions of lives, Mars becomes bad. "Earth easily could have turned out like that." said an scientist, "It is important for us to find out why and Mars Orbit Express should do that." "Mars Orbit Express" also would help scientists to learn what might happen to Earth in the future. "Mars Orbit Express" would work for about four years. | 1.

More and more robots are starting to be used in factories and our homes. These robots are different in size, shape and colour, but all of them have the same type of man-made "brain". The robots that work in factories are called industrial robots. These kinds of robots are cleverer and faster than the old ones. Industrial robots can do jobs that are often boring and sometimes dangerous. Robots are already coming into American homes, though not as quickly as they are going into factories. We have made robots work at home. They can do some housework like cooking, or playing with people just for fun. These robots aren"t as friendly and clever as those in Star Wars. But their makers say, today"s home robots can "walk" and find objects in their way, though sometimes they may knock into (撞上) those objects. They can even carry objects, though sometimes they may drop those objects. Well, nobody is perfect. We may laugh at home robots today,but some day they will do better than humans. We humans can only see certain length of light, and hear certain sounds, while robots may see and hear better than we do. In a word, robots will be widely used in our life in the future. | 1. Where are more and more robots starting to be used? ___________________________________________ 2. What do all kinds of robots have? ___________________________________________ 3. What kind of jobs can industrial robots do? ___________________________________________ 4. What do you think of today"s home robots? ___________________________________________ 5. What else do you want home robots to do for you? ___________________________________________ |
