A Canadian psychologist, Dr. David Sherry, has studied the remarkable memory of nutcracker, a bird that stores food,mostly pine seeds, in tiny caches, or holes, in the ground. A native of western North America, one nutcracker makes 100 to 200 separate caches every day in the fall and winter. When spring arrives, the bird returns to these caches to eat the seeds.Dr. Sherry says that months after burying the seeds, the birds remember exactly where th ey stored them. They fly directly to the holes with no need to hunt and peck. “These birds have a highly specialized spatial memory --- it’s amazing,” says Dr. Sherry.Dr. Sherry says that memory in many animals is associated with an area in the brain called the hippocampus. He found that food-storing birds have a larger hippocampus than birds that don’t store food. Hippocampus damage is one sign of Alzheimer’s disease, a brain degenerative disease marked by a failing memory.51.What does the passage mainly discuss?A. Some kinds of birds have excellent memory.B. How birds store food in the ground.C. How birds find their stored food.D.Why birds like to bury seeds in the ground.52.Nutcracker is a kind of bird that _____.A. stores seeds in the groundB. sings very nicelyC.flies to north in winter daysD.works diligently53.When spring arrives, the bird _____.A. returns from northB. flies back to find the stored foodC. starts to build its new homeD. becomes busy in collecting seeds54.According to Dr. Sherry, if one’s hippocampus is hurt, he may_____ .A. lose his ability to talkB. become very forgetfulC. die very soonD.become easy to get angry55.The phrase “associated with” in the last paragraph has the same meaning as_____?A. “linked to”B. “covered with”C. “located at”D. “stored in”Passage 2Gordon was a 25-year-old science teacher in 1966 when he bought a brand-new car V olvo P1800. Today, Gordon, now retired, still owns the same V olvo. Last March, he put the 2 millionth mile on the car.Gordon’s vehicle hit the big 2 million at a TV ceremony held in Times Square in New York City.To what does Gordon owe his car’s very long life?“V olvos are very strong cars,” he said. “Also, I drive sensibly. And I take very good care of the car.”Gordon changes the oil every 3,000 miles; uses only the same brand of oil; changes the spark plugs(火花塞)every 20,000 miles; washes the car regularly; waxes it at least twice a year; and spends a few minutes each week checking under the hood (车篷), among other things.“Being a science teacher, I have a better idea of the ways things work,”he said.Gordon says the vehicle still has many of its original parts. But many parts, such as the starter motor, the brakes(刹车), and the water pump, have been rebuilt or replaced.Gordon’s 2 million miles on the road have taken him almost everywhere in the United States, as well as to Canada, Mexico, and Europe. “Whether I drive 3 million is more up to me than it is the car,” he said. “The car’s parts may be able to take it, but I’m not so sure about my own.”56.From the passage we can guess that _____.A. it’s very rare for a car to drive two million milesB. the story has been written to introduce a new carC. there were a car show at the New York City’s Times SquareD. no accid ents have ever taken place with Gordon’s car67. The main cause of the car’s long life lies in _____.A. Gordon’s careful serviceB. Gordon’s special knowledge of carsC. the excellent quality of the carD. the good quality of the oil he uses68. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. All the parts of Gordon’s car have been replaced.B. Some of the car’s parts can last even longer time.C. V olvo cars are stronger than Japanese ones.D. Science teachers can usually keep their cars longer.69. Gordon has driven his V olvo _____.A. all over the worldB. both home and abroadC. mostly around the town he lives inD. on both American continents70. By the last two sentences Gordon wants to say that _____.A. he’s no longer as strong as he was youngB. his car may survive for no less than ten yearsC. he worries much about his carD. he’ll try hard to reach the goal of 3 million milesPassage 3Last summer, 16-year-old Andrea Axtell read an interesting article in the papers: A family had walked aimlessly in an Arizona desert after their car broke down. Family members said they felt as if they’d walked in circles for hours before help arrived. That detail attracted Andrea’s interest. “Wit hout a compass or specific landmarks, do people who get lost end up walking in circles?” she wondered. “And if they do, why?”These simple questions fueled Andrea’s 10th-grade science project. Hungry for answers, she went to the library to conduct background research. Among many facts, she discovered that several body organs control direction and movement. For example:⏹Eyes allow people to see their route.⏹Structures in the middle ear affect a person’s sense of balance.⏹The brain controls whether a person’s right side or left side is dominant(主导的),or exerts more control.“Studies of runners’ strides(步态)show that the dominant foot pushes off with a greater force, which pushes the runner slightly right or left,” she explains.Armed with this information, Andrea started an experiment to test whether people who don’t know where they’re going end up walking in circles. And several months later, that experiment got a prize at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair(ISEF)!71. The aim of Andrea’s research is to find _____.A.why people walk in circlesB.why runners usually run in circlesC.whether lost people walk in circlesD.how can lost people find their place72. From where did Andrea get her idea to do her 10-grade science project?A.From her textbook.B.From a news report.C.From a science report.D.From an experiment.73. Andrea found from her research that the most important organ controlling direction is_____.A.the brainB.the middle earC.the eyesD.Both eyes and middle ear74. Andrea’s research concludes that people who don’t know where they’re going are in thehabit of walking _____.A.leftwardsB.rightwardsC.either left or rightD.neither left nor right75. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A.If you are lost in a desert, you’d better stay where you are.B.One’s middle ear is the only organ to keep him in balance.C.Lost people can hardly find their way without a compass.D.The force made by one’s two feet is different when one walks.Passage 4Tears are nature’s way of making us feel more comfortable. When our eyes are made uncomfortable by some small pieces of pollution, or when we are cutting onions, or when we are tired and “red-eyes” from overwork a t late hours, tears form in our eyes to clean and refresh them.Tears are also a sign of strong emotion. We cry when we are sad and we cry when we are happy.And tears seem to be unique to human. We know that animals also experience emotion—fear, pleasure, loneliness—but they do not shed tears. From this we can conclude that tears are closely related to the emotional and biological make-up of the human species.Biologically speaking, tears are actually drops of a slightly salty fluid, produced by a gland(腺)in the body.Because salt is an important component(成分), tears may actually make up the most conclusive evidence that the human animal is the end product of a long evolutionary(进化的)process that began in the sea.And it is clear, that, in addition to the emotional benefits, the shedding of tears has a specific biological function as well. Through tears, we can eliminate from our body certain chemicals which build up in response to stress and create a chemical imbalance in the body. Crying actually makes us feel better by correcting that imbalance and making us feel good again. And thus the emotional and the biological functions of tears mix into one and make us even more “human” than we would otherwise be.76. According to the passage, human beings may have first formed in .A. the seaB. lakesC. riversD. mountains77. Which of the following functions have nothing to do with tears?A. Biological functionB. Emotional functionC. Physical functionD.Chemical function78. According to the article, which of the following is unique to humans?A. The feeling of loneliness.B. The ability of evolution.C. The ability to shed tears.D. The feeling of fear.79. The word “eliminate” in the last paragraph most probably means .A. escapeB. produceC. replaceD. remove80. Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?A. Tears are a sign of strong emotion.B. Tears are always making us feel more comfortable.C. Tears are unique to human.D. Tears have certain biological function.。

Science fiction and popular science are two genres that have captivated audiences around the world. They both have the power to inspire, educate, and entertain, but they do so in different ways.Science fiction, with its imaginative and futuristic scenarios, often explores the possibilities of technology, space exploration, and the unknown. It allows us to ponder the potential consequences of scientific advancements and the impact they may have on society. For example, in the popular science fiction film "The Matrix," the concept of a simulated reality raises thought-provoking questions about the nature of existence and the boundaries of human knowledge.中文回答:作为第九届科幻科普作文大赛的决赛选手,我很高兴能分享我的想法。

全国中学生英语能力竞赛(NEPCS)辅导教案

全国中学生英语能力竞赛(NEPCS)辅导教案

第一周目的:强化听力,单项填空题型分析和解题技巧步骤:第一课时:解听力应试技巧,并且听几段听力测试题进行练习。

1.浏览问题,预测话题2.抓住重点,解决问题3.准确把握关键词及信息词,合理判断人物意图及态度4.边听边记,强化记忆5.运用归纳,分析,综合等技巧推断最佳答案第二课时:单项选择题型分析,做相应的练习在做单项选择题时,掌握一些解题方法是很有必要的。

1.直接法--直接利用相关语法知识,通过题干中的已供信息,捕捉到解题线索,从而得出正确答案的解题方法,例:⭧1 --Will you come to the net bars(网吧)with me﹖Sorry.My mother always tells me()there.A.not go B.go C.not to go D.to go 根据句意可知此题考查动词不定式的否定形式,即tell sb.not to do sth.,故此题应选C。

2.关键词法--许多题目中都有这样一些词,它们对于快速而准确地判定答案起着至关重要的作用。

我们称这些词为关键词(key words)。

找到句中的关键词,也就找到了解题的突破口,例:--He hardly hurt himself in the accident,()﹖A.doesn't he B.didn't he C.did he D.does he 该题中hardly与hurt是起关键词作用的。

凡陈述部分含有hardly,never,little,few等否定意义的词时,反意疑问句用肯定形式;而hurt一词的过去式与原形相同,此处hurt未加s,应为过去式。

因此本题答案C是正确的。

3.类推法--如果对题目的备选答案没有十分把握或把握很小,不妨利用"如果A对,那么B也对"的类推法,从而可将A、B予以否定,例:Who's the man at the door﹖()A.He is a doctor B.He is a friend of mine C.He is a famous singer D.He is twenty 仔细分析备选答案就可发现:A、C选项针对的是"职业"。

P11 科学角在西班牙,柑橘采摘已经成为机器人掌管的任务。

让我们一起来了解一般工序并体验现代化农业。

机器人柑橘采摘工。

在西班牙,柑橘从11月以后被采摘。

技术人员把整个任务交给Citrus----- 一个能够自己采摘柑橘的机器人。

柑橘树是(适合)机器人采摘工的理想树种。

因为大部分柑橘长在树的靠外的枝条上,容易采摘。

它们的明黄色也使它们容易被看见。

Citrus用它的摄影机拍摄树上的柑橘。

在起始控制器内部,Citrus的电脑快速计算每个柑橘的位置。

这个信息被传送到采摘臂,采摘臂便准确采摘果子。

P12 采摘臂慢慢接近柑橘。

接着真空抓臂把它吸进去并扭动它。

柑橘就被从树上移走了。

Citrus每隔一秒钟就能摘一个柑橘。

一小时内能摘250kilos 的柑橘。

甚至在这样的速度下,机器手臂能把每个柑橘精确地放到传送带上。

传送带随后把柑橘传输到一个盒子里。

机器人不会取代人尽管Citrus采摘的量是一个人的两倍,它却不能够得着长在树的靠里枝条上的柑橘。

因为其它枝条挡住了节状机器手臂的路。

当机器人干完它的工作后,人们只需要采摘剩下的20%被遮蔽的柑橘。

柑橘节从2月17日至3月5日,法国芒通有个柑橘节。

在节日期间,许多花车列队行进穿过街道,花车全是由柑橘和柠檬装扮成的。

这真是一个奇观。

P13 踢足球这是一些足球动作运球(或短传球)传球射门记住:不要用手碰球!来自顶尖足球运动员的建议你要非常适合踢足球。

完成你的教练要求做的所有练习。

总是确保赛前要做热身运动。

如果不这样做,你会损伤肌肉。

足球是一项(要求)战术和团队合作的运动。

它可不只是追着求跑来跑去和射门得分。

要留意所有球员——而不只是你所盯的那个。

要一直确保你知道你团队中的其他球员所在的位置。

当你拿到球的时候,你就知道该传给谁了。

如果你观察顶尖运动员,你会发现他们是共同协作完成一次漂亮射门的。

P14 这里有三座与众不同的房子,是有来自巴西、日本和比利时的专家设计的。

你喜欢住在其中的任何一座房子里吗?特殊房子树房子不可思议!这座房子坐落在树上—在桉树中间。

科普英语竞赛翻译

科普英语竞赛翻译

科普英语竞赛翻译中的若干问题1.注意科技文体风格,使用科技英语语言科技文体的特点是结构缜密、概念准确、行文流畅、逻辑性强,词语的专业性强而修饰性较弱。

在词汇方面,科技英语大量使用名词化结构和动词的非限定式,即分词、动名词和动词不定式;词汇的组成可分三类:一是被赋予新义的常用词,二是从拉丁语、希腊语等外来语中借用的词汇,三是新造词。

在语法方面,科技英语多用现在时(尤其是一般现在时)、被动语态、非人称主语及定语从句。

科技文体是比较正式庄重的文体。

译文能否体现科技文体的特色,关键是译文中的词汇、语法、句法结构等是否与原文中的诸因素契合一致。

1)辨析文体色彩词汇是文章最基本表现材料,文章的总体风貌必然反映在词汇上。

翻译中的选词是否准确直接关系到译文能否体现原文的总体风貌。

The agenda of ongoing work in the social and behavioral sciences has been revealed here in only the most fragmentary way. But I hope these fragments will provide some glimpse into the excitement and significance of the whole.关于在社会和行为科学中我们目前正在搞的工作的进程,在这儿只是以很不搭界的方式摆出来的;可是我希望这些拉拉杂杂的东西倒能使读者见识一下我们整个的研究工作是多么有趣又是多么有意义。

这里展示的并非社会科学和行为科学的总体现状,只不过是让读者见其一斑。

然而,笔者希望这零散材料能引起人们的兴趣,使之对全部工作的重要意义有个概略的了解。

2)理清学科归属英语词汇的突出特点表现为一词多义。

一个常用词的词义可以依据其所处的不同上下文辐射到各个不同的学科,形成一个语意辐射圈。

随着社会的进步、科学的发展,越来越多的词被赋予新义,其语义辐射范围也随之扩大。

九年级英语科普短文练习题40题1<背景文章>Solar Energy: Harnessing the Power of the SunSolar energy is one of the most promising sources of renewable energy. The sun has been shining brightly for billions of years and will continue to do so for billions more. Harnessing the power of the sun can provide us with a clean and sustainable source of energy.Solar panels are devices that convert sunlight into electricity. They are made up of photovoltaic cells, which absorb sunlight and generate an electric current. Solar panels can be installed on rooftops, in fields, or on large solar farms.One of the main advantages of solar energy is that it is clean and does not produce any harmful emissions. Unlike fossil fuels, which release pollutants into the air when burned, solar energy is completely environmentally friendly.Another advantage of solar energy is that it is abundant. The sun shines on every part of the earth, and there is enough sunlight to meet all of our energy needs. Even in cloudy weather, solar panels can still generate some electricity.Solar energy is also becoming more and more affordable. Astechnology improves and production increases, the cost of solar panels is dropping. This makes solar energy a viable option for many people and businesses.In conclusion, solar energy is a powerful and sustainable source of energy that has many advantages. By harnessing the power of the sun, we can reduce our dependence on fossil fuels and protect the environment for future generations.1. What are solar panels made up of?A. Wind turbinesB. Photovoltaic cellsC. Hydroelectric generatorsD. Nuclear reactors答案:B。

第九届初中生科普英语竞赛辅导材料科普类阅读答题方法及策略一【题型说明】科普知识类文章的特点是科技词汇多,句子长且结构复杂,理论性和逻辑性又都较强,再加之文章所介绍的知识对于同学们来说是比较陌生的。

因此,同学们看这类文章觉得是雾里看花。

【文章特点】科普类文章的主要特点:1. 文章中词汇的意义比较单一、稳定、简明,不带感情色彩,具有单一性和准确性的特点。

综观整篇文章可以明显看出,它没有文学英语中常采用的排比、比喻、夸张等修饰手段,一词多义的现象也不多见。

2. 句子结构较复杂,语法分析较困难。

为了描述一个客观事物,严密地表达自己的思想,作者经常会使用集多种语法现象与一体的长句。

3. 常使用被动语态,强调动作的承受者。

4. 常使用双重否定句。

【结构特点】科普知识类文章结构一般也是由标题(Headlines),导语(Introductions),背景( Background),主体(Main body)和结尾(Ends)五部分构成。

标题是文章中心思想高度而又精辟的概括,高考这类阅读理解材料一般也不给标题,而要同学们选择标题。

导语一般位于整篇文章的首段。

背景交待一个事实的起因。

主体则对导语概括的事实进行详细叙述。

这一部分命题往往最多,因此,阅读时,同学们要把这部分作为重点。

结尾往往也是中心思想的概括,并与导语相呼应,命题者常在此要设计一道推理判断题。

【备考提醒】要做好这类阅读理解题,先要掌握这类文章的特点和结构,真正读懂并理解它。

其次,工夫在课外,平时一定要多读科技幻想类文章,比如:太空与海洋、创造与发明、计算机发展、人类未来、动物世界等。

特别是从网上搜寻一些取材原版、内容时新、语言鲜活的科技幻想类材料阅读。

这样长期坚持,既可以增长知识、开阔视野,又可以扩充科技词汇,还能提高解答这种类型试题的能力。

我们何乐而不为呢?【实例分析】阅读下面的文章,然后做后面的阅读理解题:Robots are smart. With their computer brains, they help people work in dangerous places or do difficult jobs.Some robots do regular jobs. Bobby, the mail carrier, brings mail to a large office building in Washington, D.C. Heis one of 250 mail carriers in the United States.Mr. Leachim, who weighs two hundred pounds and is six feet tall, has some advantages as a teacher. One is thathe does not forget details. He knows each child’s name, the parents’ names and what each child knows andneeds to know. In addition, he knows each child’s pets and hobbies. Mr. Leachim does not make mistakes. Eachchild goes and tells him his or her name, then dials an identification number. His computer brain puts the ch ild’svoice and number together. He identifies the child with no mistakes. Then he starts the lesson. Another advantage is that Mr. Leachim is flexible. If the children need more time to do their lessons they canmove switches. In this way they can repeat Mr. Leachim’s lesson over and over again. When the children do agood job, he tells them something interesting about their hobbies. At the end of the lesson the children switch Mr.Leachim off.1. The first paragraph of the passage tells us _____.A. human beings are not as smart as robotsB. robots will take the place of man to rule the earthC. we can only use robots to do some regular jobsD. robots can help people in many different ways2. Mr. Leachim’s _____ makes him a good teacher.A. knowledgeB. appearanceC. advantagesD. energy3. What is the most important thing Mr. Leachim can do in his lessons?A. To meet the needs of each student.B. To talk to the students in different languages.C. To keep everyone’s interest in his lesson.D. To introduce more hobbies to the children.4. The word flexible in the last paragraph means _____.A. not strictB. not hardC. suitableD. changeable5. Which of the following statements may be true according to the passage?A. There are 250 robot teachers in the United States.B. Mr. Leachim is run and controlled by electricity.C. Bobby works in a large office building in WashingtonD.C.D. The lessons taught by Mr. Leachim are given on a TV set.【答案与解析】文章主要讲的是机器人可以以不同的方式帮助人类。

1. D。

主旨大意题。

从With their computer brains, they help people work in dangerous places or do different jobs. Some robots do regular jobs可知机器人可以做各种不同的工作,能以各种方式帮助人类,故答案选D。

2. C。

事实细节题。

从Mr. Leachim, who weighs two hundred pounds and is six feet tall, has some advantages as a teacher可知答案C正确。

3. A。

推理判断题。

从Another advantage is that Mr. Leachim is flexible可知他非常的灵活,可满足每个学生的要求,故答案选A。

4. D。

词汇猜测题。

从文章最后一段可知学生可以根据需要有选择地运用Mr. Leachim, 可见flexible是形容Mr. Leachim很灵活,富有变化,即答案选D。

5. B。

事实细节题。

从文章最后一话At the end of the lesson the children switch Mr. Leachim off 可知答案B正确推测生词词义技巧实践证明,根据自己的英语基础和兴趣爱好选择恰当的材料,进行大量的阅读是学好英语的有效途径。

但是,阅读中不免会遇到生词或熟词生义,不可能也没有必要每个生词都去插词典,这就需要掌握猜测词义的方法和技巧了。

这里总结了17种词义推测的方法或技巧,但愿能对你有所帮助。

1.根据转折关系:表示转折关系的有though, but、however等。

例如:Any fool can make soap, but it takes a genius to sell it.由but可知genius是与fool(蠢才)相对的,由此推测其意为“有才能的人”、“天才”。

2.根据对比关系:表示对比关系的有标志词有unlike、not、while、on the other hand, in spite of、in contrast等。

例如:If you agree, say “Yes”; if you dissent, say “No”.根据前后的对比关系,不难猜出dissent是意思与agree相反,即:“不同意”。

3.根据同类关系:比较关系表示意义上的相似关系。

表示比较关系的词和短语有similarly,like,just as,also等。

例如:Mr. Green loves to talk,and his brothers are similarly loquacious.句中similarly表明loves to talk与生词loquacious之间是同类关系。

由此可推断出loquacious 词义为“健谈的”。

4.根据因果关系:表示因果关系的有because, so that, so/such…that…等。

例如:The flowers in the vase withered because they had no water.由“无雨水”之因,可推知花会“枯萎、凋谢”之果。

因此,wither意为“枯萎、凋谢”。

5.根据同位关系:因为同位语是对前面的名词的进一步补充说明,提供更为详细的情况,所以根据同位语也可推测前面名词的意思。

例如:Yes, that is the Tai Mahal, one of the most famous buildings in the world. (全国卷)由后面的同位语的解释我们清楚地知道Tai Mahal就是一著名的建筑物。
