【題目】Have you ever rubbed your hands together when they get cold? Why do we do that? We do that for friction．Friction happens when two things that aren't very smooth rub together to make heat energy.The faster you rub two things together，the more friction (and heat) you can make. Let's discover friction!

WHAT YOU'LL NEED：

●A piece of soap ●Water ●Your hands

WHAT TO DO：

1.Make sure your hands are dry.

2.Rub your hands together until you feel the heat of your hands.

3.Now，use a piece of soap and water to get your hands very slippery (滑的)．

4.Try to make friction happen while your hands are slippery.

5.Please write down what has happened.

LET'S TALK!

Friction is a kind of energy that happens when two things rub together. When friction happens, it makes heat! When your hands are slippery, they won't make much friction and your hands won't get so hot.

DID YOU KNOW?

1.Friction happens when you stop your fast running bike.

2.Ancient people made fires by rubbing two pieces of wood together. Friction happened though they didn't know it.

【題目】In modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition. Some value it highly, for they believe that it is helpful for social progress and richness, others say that competition is bad; and that it sets one person against another and leads to unfriendly relationship between people.

I have taught many children who held the belief(看法) that their self – worth came from how well they performed at tennis and other skills. For them, performing well and winning are often life-and-death matters. Sadly, they forget to develop many other human qualities.

However, while some seem to wish to succeed very much, others think quite the opposite. They, especially young people have suffered from competitive stress from their parents or society. Teaching these young people, I often find that they choose to fail. They seem to choose failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse: “I may have lost, but it doesn’t matter because I really didn’t try.” In fact, they are worried that if they had really tried and lost, that would mean they were worth nothing.

Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove their self – worth. Both are based on the mistaken belief that one’s self – worth come from how well one performs in comparison(比較) with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. I suggest that they can discover a new meaning in competition only when such worries and fear begin to disappear.

Opinions about competition

Main argument

Some believe that competition 【1】 social progress and richness, while others think competition 【2】 to unfriendly relationship between people.

Children’s performances

Some children only care about 【3】 well and winning

It is 【4】that they forget to develop many other human qualities.

Some children don’t try to win or 【5】 success but choose failure.

They are 【6】 that if they had really tried and failed, it would mean they weren’t worth 【7】.

Reason behind

They think one can 【8】 his self-worth only by performing better than others in competition.

Both are 【9】 of not being valued.

Writer’s 【10】 to children

Find the new meaning of competition as such worries and fear begin to disappear.

【題目】If you think it is cold where you are at the moment, then a visit to the Russian village of Oymyakon might just change your mind. The small village is in the heart of Siberia(西伯利亞). The name Oymyakon means “non-freezing water” because of a nearby hot spring, but it is indeed the coldest inhabited(有人居住的) place on the earth.

Oymyakon sits just a few hundred miles from the Arctic Circle(北極圈). The average(平均) temperature remains below 50°C in winter and the lowest temperature there was 67.7°C. This is the lowest recorded temperature in the Northern Hemisphere(北半球). Oymyakon is white in winter, since everything is frozen and covered with thick snow. But it’s also dark—the length of daytime is only three hours.

Because of the weather, people’s life there is inconvenient(不方便的), yet simple and traditional. Most homes still burn coal and wood for heat. When people go outside, they have to wear fur coats to stay warm. They can’t wear glasses, or the glasses will freeze to their face. There are few modern conveniences for them to enjoy. People don’t use mobile phones, because the batteries(電池) cannot work in such low temperatures. Cars can only be placed in heated garages. The ones left outside must keep running, or they won’t restart.

【1】Which country does the village Oymyakon lie in?

____________________________________________

【2】How far is it from Oymyakon to the Arctic Circle?

____________________________________________

【3】Which season has the shortest daytime in the village Oymyakon?

____________________________________________

【4】What do the villagers wear when they go outdoors?

____________________________________________

【5】Why can’t the mobile phones be used in Oymyakon?

【題目】On March 14, one of science’s brightest stars went dark. Stephen Hawking, the world-famous British scientist, died at 78 in Cambridge, UK.

Hawking is considered by many to be the greatest scientist in history since Albert Einstein. He came up with the theory（理論） that theuniverse(宇宙) began with the Big Bang and will end in black holes. His theories became the base for a lot of later research. He also wrote books to help common people understand the universe. His most famous book isA Brief History of Time, which has sold more than 10 million copies around the world.

Besides his scientific achievements, Hawking was also someone who had a strongwill. When he was 21, he got a serious illness that stopped him from walking and talking. Later in life, he had to sit in a wheelchair and “speak” using a computerized voice. But this didn’t stop him from living a meaningful and colorful life.

He celebrated his 60th birthday by going up in a hot-air balloon; when he was 65, he took part in a zero-gravity(零重力) flight to experience weightlessness. He hoped to travel into space one day. In 2015, Hawking spoke about how he felt life was unfair when he first knew about his illness. “But now, 50 years later, I can be quietly satisfied with my life,” he said.

【1】Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 2?

A. Albert Einstein is less popular than Hawking

B. Hawking wrote books to make his theory simpler

C. Hawking’s most famous book is “Black Holes”.

D. Stephen Hawking is well-known as a successful writer

【2】Hawking first felt____________ when he knew he got such a serious illness.

A. successful B. afraid C. hopeless D. brave

【3】According to Paragraph 4, how did Hawking celebrate his 60th birthday?

A. By travelling into the space B. By making an exciting speech

C. By writing a famous book D. By going up in a hot-air balloon

【4】What can we know about Hawking’s whole life?

A. Meaningful and colorful B. Colorful but dangerous

C. Sad but satisfied D. Meaningful but exciting
