题目列表(包括答案和解析)
Children start out as natural scientists, eager to look into the world around them. Helping them enjoy science can be easy; there is no need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive lab equipment. You only have to share your children’s curiosity. Firstly, listen to their questions. I once visited a classroom of seven –year- olds to talk about science as a job. The children asked me “textbook questions” about schooling, salary and whether I liked my job. When I finished answering, we sat facing one another in science. Finally I said,” Now that we’ve finished with your lists, do you have questions of your own about science?”
After a long pause, a boy raised his hand, “have you ever seen a grasshopper eat? When I try eating leaves like that, I get a stomachache. Why?”
This began a set of questions that lasted nearly two hours.
Secondly, give them time to think. Studies over the past 30 years have shown that. After asking a question, adults typically wait only one second or less for an answer, no time for a child to think. When adults increase their “wait time” to three seconds or more, children give more logical, complete and creative answers.
Thirdly, watch your language. Once you have a child involved in a science discussion, don’t jump in with “That’s right” or “very good”. These words work well when it comes to encouraging good behavior. But in talking about science, quick praise can signal that discussion is over. Instead, keep things going by saying, “That’s interesting” or “I’d never thought of it that way before’, or coming up with more questions or ideas.
Never push a child to “think”. It doesn’t make sense; children are always thinking, without your telling them to. What’s more, this can turn a conversation into a performance. The child will try to find the answer you want, in as few words as possible, so that he will be a small target for your disagreement.
Lastly, show; don’t tell. Real-life impressions of nature are far more impressive than any lesson children can learn from a book or a television program. Let children look at their fingertips through a magnifying glass, and they’ll understand why you want them to wash before dinner. Rather than saying that water evaporates, set a pot of water to boil and let them watch the water level drop.

Stratford-on-Avon, as we all know, has only one industry--William Shakespeare--but there are two clearly separate and different branches. There is the Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC),which presents excellent productions of the plays at the Shakespeare Memorial Theatre on the Avon. And there are townsfolk who largely live on the tourists who come, not to see the play, but to look at Anne Hathaway's Cottage, Shakespeare's birthplace and the other sights.
The townsfolk of Stratford doubt that the theatre adds a penny to their income. They frankly dislike the RSC actors, those who walk with long hair and beard and great noise.
The tourist stream are not entirely separate. The sightseers, who come by bus and often take in Warwick on the side, don't usually see the plays. And some of them are even surprised to find a theatre in Stratford. However, the playgoers do manage a little sight-seeing along with their play-going. It is the playgoers, the RSC declares, who bring in much of the town's income because they spend the night ( some of them four or five nights) pouring money into hotels and restaurants. The sightseers can take in everything and get out of town by nightfall.
The townsfolk don't see it this way and local government does not put away some money for the RSC.Stratford cries poor traditionally. Nevertheless, every hotel in town seems to be adding a new wing or a cocktail room. Hilton is building its own hotel there, which you will be sure will be decorated with Hamburger bars, dinner rooms and so forth, and will be very expensive.
Anyway, the townsfolk can't understand why the RSC needs help from the government. The theatre has broken attendance records for three years in a row. Last year, its 1,431 seats were 94 occupied all year long and this year they will do better. The reason, of course, is that costs have rocketed and ticket prices have stayed the same. It would be a shame to raise prices too much because it would drive away the young people who are Stratford's most attractive customers. They come entirely for the plays, not the sights. They all seem to look alike, though they come from all over.
1.From the first two paragraphs, we learn that______.
A.the townsfolk think little of the RSC 's contribution to the town's income
B.the actors of RSC imitate Shakespeare on and off stage
C.the two branches are not getting along well with each other
D.the townsfolk earn little from tourism
2.It can be inferred from the third paragraph that_____.
A.the sightseers cannot visit the castle and the palace separately
B.the playgoers seem to spend more money than the sightseers
C.the playgoers go to no other places in town than the theatre
D.the sightseers do no other things than shopping in town
3.By saying "Stratford cries poor traditionally", the author means that ____.
A.Stratford has long been in financial difficulties
B.Stratford cannot afford the new projects
C.the town is not really short of money
D.the townsfolk used to be poorly paid
4.According to the townsfolk, the RSC deserves no help from the government because ____.
A.the behavior of the actors is not socially acceptable
B.ticket prices can be raised to cover the spending
C.the company is financially ill-managed
D.the theatre attendance is on the rise
