题目列表(包括答案和解析)

Children are natural scientists,and are very interested in the world around them.Helping them enjoy science can be easy;there's no need for a lot of scientific terms(科学术语) or modern labs.You only have to share(分享) your children's interests.

  Firstly,listen to their questions.I once visited a classroom of seven-year-old children to talk about science as a job.The children asked me“textbook questions” about schooling,the money I got and whether I liked my job.When I finished answering,we sat facing each other silently. Finally I said,“Now that we've finished with your lists,do you have questions of your own about science?”

  After a long wait,a boy put up his hand,“Have you ever seen a rabbit eat?When I try eating grass like that,I get ill.Why?”This began a lot 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,many teachers usually wait only one second or less for an answer,no time for a child to think.When teachers increase their“wait time”to three seconds or more,children give better answers.

  Thirdly,watch your language.When the child is having a science discussion,don't jump in with“That's right”or“Very good”.These words work well when it comes to encouraging a child to help others.But in talking about science,these words make a child think that the discussion is over.Instead, keep things going by saying,“That's interesting”or“I've never thought of it that way before”,or coming up with more questions or ideas.

  Lastly,show,don't tell.Let children look at their hands through a microscope(显微镜),and they'll understand why you want them to wash before dinner...

(1)

To help children enjoy science,the most important thing for teachers to do is ________.

  A.let them see the world around

B.let them study in modern labs

  C.tell them the difficult terms on science

D.share the children's interests

[  ]

The Witch(巫婆)

   “We should do something nice for the old people of our town,”the teacher said to her class one day. “What could we do?”

  “Can we give them a picnic?”one of the children asked. “We can send out invitations(邀请)and bring cakes and sausages(香肠)and all kinds of good things to eat.”

  “That's very good idea,”the teacher said. “We'll ask all the old people to a picnic by the river.”

  The children worked hard getting ready for the picnic. Their parents made cakes and pies(馅饼)or gave money, and the children wrote invitation cards to the old people. Then they took the cards to the old people's homes.

  On the morning of the picnic the sky was blue and the sun was shining. The children were all looking forward to giving the old people a happy day.

  Then one of the children said. “Oh! We forgot to invite Mrs. Waller.”

  They did not like Mrs. Waller. She looked like a witch.

   “We must invite her how then,” the teacher said. “She will be hurt and angry if we don't ask her.”

  She looked around the class and then pointed at one of the boys. “Tom, take an invitation card to her house. Apologize(道歉)for being late. Don't tell her we forgot her.”

  Tom did not want to go to Mrs. Waller's house, but he was a brave(勇敢的)boy, and said, “All right, Miss Lee.”

  He went to the old woman's house and knocked on the door. Mrs. Waller opened it. She looked very angry.

   “Well,” she said, “what is it? What do you want?”

  Tom gave her the invitation card and said, “I'm sorry we did not ask you before, but please come to our picnic. It's a beautiful day.”

  Mrs. Waller knew that the children thought she was a witch. She guessed that they had forgotten her.

   “You're too late,” the woman said. “It's a beautiful day now, but I've already arranged for rain this afternoon.”

C.They were frightened(受惊吓)of her.

D.She was cruel(残酷的)to children.

4.Why did the teacher say they must invite Mrs. Waller?

阅读下面短文,然后根据短文内容回答问题。

  Children start out as natural scientists, eager to look into the world around them.Helping them enjoy science can be easy; there's no need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive lab equipment.You only have to share your children's curiosity(好奇).Finally, 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(薪水)and whether I liked my job.When I finished answering, we sat facing one another in silence.Finally I said,“Now that we've finished 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(蚱蜢)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(符合逻辑的), 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(行为).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 smaller 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(放大镜), and they'll understand why you want them to wash before dinner.Rather than saying that water evaporates(蒸发), set a pot of water to boil and let them watch the water level drop.

1.What's the most important thing for adults to do when children are natural scientists, and to raise their interest?

________________________________

2.What can replace the word“list”in the last sentence of the first paragraph?

________________________________

3.How long should adults wait so that children can answer questions in a more logical, complete and creative way?

________________________________

4.What can we say to encourage children in a science discussion?

________________________________

5.Which is a better way for adults, tell their children or encourage their children to ask questions of their own?
