Sadly, summer is not so pleasant to people in a bit less lucky places, w
14、here air conditioning(空调) is not easy to get for most of them.But as a saying goes, where there is a will, there is a way, especially for those who like doing it yourself (DIY). A young man from Bangladesh(孟加拉国) designed an air conditioning system called the Eco Cooler, one that does not require pow
15、er, and is made of the worlds most common waste plastic bottles.The Eco Cooler is super simple to build no special engineering skills are required. First, to fix it, a window should be taken away and replaced(替代) by it. Second, a board should be cut into the size of a window. Some bottle-neck sized
16、holes should then be cut onto the board. Then, the funnel-shaped(漏斗状的) bottlenecks, cut from the plastic bottles, should be put into the holes. The next step is to fix the design onto the window frame(框) with the wider side facing outwards. And this is it.The Eco Cooler then works by catching the wi
17、nds and sending them inside the building. It can reduce the temperature of a room by as much as 5C a big difference when looking at comfortable 25C compared to uncomfortable 30C.The idea of the inventor, Ashis Paul, was to show his great product to as many people as possible. For this purpose, he re
18、ceived help from some groups of volunteers. Together, they offered to help local people build and fix the units, as well as teach them how to make them themselves.Yes, the Eco Cooler is not a super high-tech air conditioning system, but it is one that can make a big difference.23. When building the
19、Eco Cooler, we should pay special attention to _. A. the shape of the window B. the direction of bottlenecks C. the temperature of the outside D. the weight of the board24. What can we learn from the passage?A. Ashis Paul is a clever inventor and a successful businessman.B. An Eco Cooler can fix the
20、 room temperature to comfortable 25C. C. The new invention of Eco Cooler is friendly to the environment.D. Local people will replace their air conditioner with an Eco Cooler. 25. Whats the best title of this passage?A. DIY air conditioning made from plastic bottlesB. Eco Cooler a super high-tech air
21、 conditionerC. Why do we need an Eco Cooler in summer?D. A strong-willed inventor and his DIY dreamBHow to investigate Planning Decide on a scientific problem to investigateFor example, a student named Mary has decided to research into how quickly sugar dissolves(溶解) in water. Write down your hypoth
22、esisYou may already have an idea of what you expect to happen in your investigation. This idea is called your hypothesis. It may not be right! It is just an idea, though it may be based on work in science which you have done before. The aim of your investigation is to test your idea. Decide what var
23、iables(变量) you are dealing withThings like temperature, size, weight, and colour are called variables. Variables are things you can measure(测量).In your investigation, you have to decide what the variables are, which ones you will keep fixed, and which you will change. You need to change just one var
24、iable at a time. If lots of variables change at once, it wont be a good test. Decide what equipment you need, and in what order you will do things Prepare tables for your results Getting your evidence(数据) Make your measurements, and record your results Reaching conclusions Look for patterns in your
25、results Present your conclusionsWhat links(关联) did you find between any of the variables? How would you explain these links? Checking your findings Compare your conclusions and hypothesisDo your results support your idea?26. What does the underlined word “hypothesis” most probably mean?A. reasonB. r
26、esultC. methodD. guess27. In Marys investigation, which of the following about the variables is true?A. She can only change one variable at a time. B. Some of the variables cant be measured.C. Her weight and age can be the variables.D. The temperature of water cannot be a variable.28. What is the pa
27、ssage mainly about?A. How to do a scientific research.B. How to explain a scientific finding.C. How to deal with a chemistry problem.D. How to understand some chemistry knowledge.CWe wake up very early to go to school, maybe even earlier to meet with a teacher, complete our extracurricular(课程以外的) ac
28、tivities, come home to have a quick dinner, talk for eight minutes with our parents and do homework until we fall asleep. But then we remember. We have to look at the American College Test (ACT) exercises one more time. Half asleep, we run downstairs to get the ACT book, and start studying. After th
29、is we finally get to turn off the lights and drift away to sleep. And then six hours later, we do it all over again. In my health class, my teacher told us that teenagers need at least eight to nine hours of sleep each night. The sad truth is, with so much to do every day, high school students canno
30、t keep to this sleep schedule(安排). Let me ask you all a question: Doesnt it seem more humane(人道的) to give a teenager perhaps two hours of homework each night? This would allow us to have the eight to nine hours of much needed sleep. Or does it seem better to pile students with five hours of work a n
31、ight? It leaves us very little time to relax, therefore reducing the time that we can sleep. In my opinion, the present structure(结构) of the junior year of high school doesnt work well. Junior year of high school is a time for growth. By this time many students have the ability to think creatively,
32、and solve challenging problems. Homework is important for a students growth. But do we really need to spend countless hours a night doing it? Too much homework can only lead to too little sleep and too low an ability. I do think it is time to change the structure, so that we sleep at home, and learn
33、 at school. 29. In the first paragraph the writer gives _.A. a picture of the present daily life of high school studentsB. an example of an ideal daily life of high school students C. a reason for high school students to live a busy daily school life D. a suggestion of what high school students shou
34、ld do to pass ACT 30. From the last paragraph we know that the writer thinks _.A. junior year of high school is the most important growth period B. challenging problems are needed for a teenagers growth C. the ability to think has nothing to do with homeworkD. the present structure leads to students
35、 often sleeping in class 31. Why does the writer write this article?A. To prove the role of enough sleep in teenagers growth. B. To complain about the problems in the system of the ACT. C. To ask for a change for less homework and more sleep.D. To discuss the relationship between sleep and homework.
36、DAfter a while attention to Tom ended, and the usual school murmur(嗡嗡读书声) rose upon the boring air once more. Now the boy began to steal secret glances(偷看) at the girl. She noticed it, made a face at him and gave him the back of her head for the space of a minute. When she slowly faced around again,
37、 an apple lay before her. She pushed it away. Tom gently put it back. She pushed it away again, but with less animosity(敌意). Tom patiently returned it to its place. Then she let it remain. Tom wrote on his paper, “Please take it I got more.” The girl glanced at the words, but made no sign. Now the b
38、oy began to draw something on the paper, hiding his work with his left hand. For a time the girl refused to notice; but her human curiosity(好奇心) soon began to show itself by hardly noticeable(明显的) signs. The boy worked on, seemingly not aware. The girl made some non-committal(含糊的) efforts to see, bu
39、t the boy did not display that he was aware of it. At last she couldnt bear it and whispered: “Let me see it.”Tom partly uncovered the picture of a house with some smoke rising from the chimney(烟囱). Then the girls interest began to fasten itself upon the work and she forgot everything else. When it
40、was finished, she gazed a moment, then whispered:“Its nice draw a man.” The artist created a man in the front yard; she was satisfied, and whispered:“Its a beautiful man now draw me in it.”Tom drew an hour-glass(沙漏) as the body, a full moon as her head and some arms added to it. The girl said:“Its e
41、ver so nice I wish I could draw. No one has ever taught me that.”“Its easy,” whispered Tom, “Ill learn you.”“Oh, will you? When?”“At noon. Do you go home to dinner?”“Ill stay if you will.”“Good thats a deal. Whats your name?”32. What probably happened in the classroom before this passage?A. The girl

44、awing noticeably.C. The boy didnt notice the girl trying several times to see his drawing.D. The girl didnt want the boy to do the drawing in class any more.35.
