Before going outside in the morning, many of us check a window thermometer(溫度計)for the temperature. This helps us decide what to wear. ____1.____. We want our food to be a certain coldness in the refrigerator. We want it a certain hotness in the oven. If we don’t feel well, we use a thermometer to see if we have a fever. We keep our rooms a certain warmth in the winter and a certain coolness in the summer.

Not all the thermometers use the same system to measure temperature. We use a system called the Fahrenheit scale. But most other countries use the Centigrade scale.

Both systems use the freezing and boiling points of water as their guide.___ 2.___ .

The most common kind of thermometer is made with mercury(水銀)inside a clear glass tube. As mercury (or any other liquid ) becomes hot, it expands. As it gets colder, it contracts(收縮). That is why on hot days the mercury line is high in the glass tube.____ 3.___.

First. Take a clear glass juice bottle that has a cap ; fill the bottle with coloured water. Tap a hole in the center of the cap using a hammer and thick nail. Put the cap on the jar. Then stick a plastic straw(吸管) through the nail hole.

_____4.____.

Finally. Place a white card on the outside of the bottle and behind the straw. Now you can see the water lever easily.

_____5.____.

As the temperature goes down, the water will contract, and the lever in the straw will come down. Perhaps you will want to keep a record of the water lever in the straw each morning for a week.

A．We use and depend on thermometers to measure the temperature of many other things in our daily lives.

B．Thermometers measure temperature, by using materials that change in the same way when they are heated or cooled.

C．Now that you know this rule you can make a thermometer of your own that will work.

D．The water will rise in the straw. As the temperature of the air goes up, the water will expand and rise even higher.

E．They label these in different ways. On the Fahrenheit scale water freezes at 32 degrees and boils at 212 degrees. On the Celsius scale water freezes at 0 degrees and boils at 100degrees.

F．Take wax (you may use an old candle if you have one) and melt some of it right where the straw is struck into the cap to seal把..粘住) them together.

G．People use thermometers which are made by themselves when travelling around the world.

Sports shoes that work out whether their owner has enough exercise to warrant time in front of the television have been devised in the UK.

The shoes — named Square Eyes — contain an electronic pressure sensor and a tiny computer chip to record how many steps the wearer has taken in a day. A wireless transmitter passes the information to a receiver connected to a television, and this decides how much evening viewing time the wearer deserves, based on the day’s efforts.

The design was inspired by a desire to fight against the rapidly ballooning waistlines among British teenagers, says Gillian Swan, who developed Square Eyes as a final year design project at Brunel University to London, UK. “We looked at current issues and childhood overweight really stood out,” she says. “And I wanted to tackle that with my design.”

Once a child has used up their daily allowance gained through exercise, the television automatically switches off. And further time in front of the TV can only be earned through more steps.

Swan calculated how exercise should translate to television time using the recommended daily amounts of both. Health experts suggest that a child take 12,000 steps each day and watch no more than two hours of television. So, every 100 steps recorded by the Square Eyes shoes equals precisely one minute of TV time.

Existing pedometers （計步器） normally clip onto a belt or slip into a pocket and keep count of steps by measuring sudden movement. Swan says these can be easily tricked into recording steps through shaking. But her shoe has been built to be harder for lazy teenagers to cheat. “It is possible, but it would be a lot of effort,” she says. “That was one of my main design considerations.”

1.According to Swan, the purpose of her design project is to ________.

A. keep a record of the steps of the wearer

B. deal with overweight among teenagers

C. enable children to resist the temptation of TV

D. prevent children from being tricked by TV programs

2.Which of the following is TRUE of Square Eyes shoes?

A. They regulate a child’s evening TV viewing time.

B. They determine a child’s daily pocket money.

C. They have raised the hot issue of overweight.

D. They contain information of the receiver.

3.What is stressed by health experts in their suggestion?

A. The exact number of steps to be taken.

B. The precise number of hours spent on TV.

C. The proper amount of daily exercise and TV time.

D. The way of changing steps into TV watching time.

4.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?

A. Smart Shoes Decide on Television Time

B. Smart Shoes Guarantee More Exercise

C. Smart Shoes Measure Time of Exercise

D. Smart Shoes Stop Childhood Overweight

1.Sometimes they try to get out of a class to escape a teacher they don’t like. Here is some advice to solve this problem.

Ask yourself, “What can I learn from this teacher?” Even if you don’t worship (崇拜) his or her personality or lectures, dig deep until you find a subject in which he or she is very knowledgeable. Focus on that part of the teacher’s personality, and use him or her as a tool for learning. Not only will you gain more knowledge in that subject, but a closer relationship with your teacher may help you understand one another better. 2.

Talk to students who are doing well in the class and ask them for tips, tools, and a plan of action to get along with the teacher better. 3.

If you still can’t get along, make an appointment with the school guidance counselor (輔導員). He or she will offer many tips and suggestions for you to get out of difficult teacher relationships. 4. That means they can help you and your teachers get rid of the bad impression on each other.

5. Your parents can meet with your teacher and try to work it out.

Teachers are there for more than just homework, and they know about more than just their subject matter. They can help you learn how to function as an adult and a lifelong learner.

Undoubtedly, these will be a few teachers along the way who you will always remember and who might change your life forever.

With the popularity of Harry Potter novels, the number of children applying to boarding schools has risen, many of them hoping to find their own version of Hogwarts. However, others have interpreted this trend as a reaction to longer working hours and the break up of more marriages. The boarding schools of fiction are presented as one long midnight feast with pillow fights making firm friendships. However, some people say the reality is children having more homesickness and a lack of individual attention. Modern boarding schools have done much to get rid of the image of the mass dormitories with 40 or more beds in one room, some going as far as providing private rooms with bathrooms. Similarly, they make great announcements for their academic advantage, particularly in view of the increase in exams, homework and university entrance requirements facing children wishing to succeed in the modern world.

Alongside these more conventional schools, two types of boarding schools have also become more popular recently. Sports academies and stage schools seek to cater for children with particular interests and talents, while so-called troubled-teens have been able to turn to a range of religious or wilderness schools to solve their problematic behavior.

Boarding schools allow children a safe space in which to accomplish greater control and independence over their daily lives. Teachers and staff can look after and support but they are unlikely to be over-protective. This can be a great preparation for university or for working away from home in later life as it provides an intermediate step between childhood and full independence.

However, Parents are a child’s most natural support and best role models to learn from. If they are separated from them for long periods of time, this may damage their relationship and leave the child feeling anxious or alone. Schools are unlikely to be able to copy the detailed knowledge of each individual child that a parent has and therefore cannot be as effective in supporting the child.

To sum up, boarding schools have both their advantages and disadvantages, so it is up to you to decide whether to send your children to boarding schools or not.

1.What do we know from the passage?

A. More and more children go and visit Hogwarts on their own.

B. Pillow fights in boarding schools make firm friendships in reality.

C. More children want to go to boarding schools because of Harry Potter novels.

D. There aren’t special schools for the particularly talented children.

2.What kind of schools may be the most suitable for the so-called troubled-teens?

A. sports academies B. Wilderness schools

C. Conventional schools D. Stage schools

3.We learn from Paragraph 4 that __________.

A. teachers of boarding schools are the best examples for children to learn from

B. children can be more independent if they are separated from their parents

C. parents know their children better than teachers of boarding schools

D. schools are much more effective than parents in supporting children

4.What is the author’s opinion of boarding schools?

A. Neutral B. Negative

C. Positive D. Critical

Your car is a necessary part of your life. You use it every day. Of course, you want to hold on to it so you make sure it has the latest alarm and immobilizer. But despite all these, cars like yours are still stolen every day. In fact, in this country, one car is stolen almost every minute! And if your car is stolen, you only have a 50:50 chance of seeing it again.

Each year, car crime costs nearly £3 billion. Of course, if you’re insured, you won’t lose out, or will you? Firstly, you will have to pay extra insurance later on, and then you may not be offered the full amount by the agent. You will probably have to hire a car and you will also lose the value of the contents and accessories (配件) in the car.

Now comes the solution. An RAC Trackstar system, hidden in one of 47 possible secret locations in your car, is the key of our system. If your car is stolen, radio signals are sent at twenty-second intervals from the car to the RAC Trackstar National Control Center via a satellite network. Then a computer gives the vehicle’s exact location, speed and direction.

The RAC Trackstar National Control Center, which operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, will immediately inform the police in the area where the car is located. Because the police receive information every twenty seconds, they will always know the vehicle’s location. Once the thief has been arrested, your car will be returned to you.

RAC Trackstar is unique in being able to provide the National Control Center with details of the exact location of your car, its speed and direction. And speed is the key to successful recovery of a stolen vehicle. RAC Trackstar Control will immediately tell the police if you report your car stolen and under the 24-hour Guardian Option. It will also tell you if your car has been stolen. RAC Trackstar’s constant updates mean the police are kept informed of the car’s location. All these greatly improve your chances of seeing your car again.

1. If your car is stolen, you will have to ______.

A. hire a new car

B. pay more insurance

C. buy a RAC Trackstar system

D. inform the National Control Center

2.The Trackstar system can tell the police ______.

A. how the car is stolen B. who the thief is

C. what brand the car is D. where the car is

3.The underlined word “It” in the last paragraph refers to ______.

A. the local police station

B. the Guardian Option

C. the insurance company

D. the RAC Trackstar Control

4.According to the passage, people with RAC Trackstar ______.

A. automatically find directions

B. seldom get their vehicles damaged

C. have less chance of being in an accident

D. are more likely to get the stolen cars back
