Before going outside in the morning, many of us check a window thermometer(溫度計(jì))for the temperature. This helps us decide what to wear.__【小題1】__. We want our food to be a certain coldness in the refrigerator. We want it a certain hotness in the oven. If we don’t feel well, we use a thermometer to see if we have a fever. We keep our rooms a certain warmth in the winter and a certain coolness in the summer.
Not all the thermometers use the same system to measure temperature. We use a system called the Fahrenheit scale. But most other countries use the Centigrade scale.
Both systems use the freezing and boiling points of water as their guide.__【小題2】__.
The most common kind of thermometer is made with mercury(水銀)inside a clear glass tube. As mercury (or any other liquid ) becomes hot, it expands. As it gets colder, it contracts(收縮). That is why on hot days the mercury line is high in the glass tube.__【小題3】__.
First. Take a clear glass juice bottle that has a cap ; fill the bottle with coloured water. Tap a hole in the center of the cap using a hammer and thick nail. Put the cap on the jar. Then stick a plastic straw(吸管) through the nail hole.____【小題4】____.
Finally. Place a white card on the outside of the bottle and behind the straw. Now you can see the water lever easily. ____【小題5】____.
As the temperature goes down, the water will contract, and the lever in the straw will come down. Perhaps you will want to keep a record of the water lever in the straw each morning for a week.

A.People use thermometers which are made by themselves when travelling around the world.
B.We use and depend on thermometers to measure the temperature of many other things in our daily lives.
C.Thermometers measure temperature, by using materials that change in the same way when they are heated or cooled.
D.Now that you know this rule you can make a thermometer of your own that will work.
E.The water will rise in the straw. As the temperature of the air goes up, the water will expand and rise even higher.
F.They label these in different ways. On the Fahrenheit scale water freezes at 32 degrees and boils at 212 degrees. On the Celsius scale water freezes at 0 degrees and boils at 100degrees.
G.Take wax (you may use an old candle if you have one) and melt some of it right where the straw is struck into the cap to seal(把..粘住) them together.

D
He looks like somebody important! I remember thinking about a middle-aged man standing at a checkout counter. Something set him apart. Even the boy bagging groceries seemed to sense it. He sped up than usual as he glanced with respect at the man.
Trying to find out what was different about him, I found that he looked quite ordinary. Although he gave the impression of being tall, I could see he was actually a little shorter than average. His appearance wasn’t particularly outstanding, and he was wearing plain weekend sports attire ( 運(yùn)動(dòng)休閑裝 ). Not until the man was leaving did it strike me. He carried himself as if he were somebody worth caring about. Head up and chest out, he walked proudly from the market. I watched the other shoppers as they looked down over their baskets. And me? In the glass of the store’s side doors, I saw reflected ( 映現(xiàn) ) a worn-out housewife who looked as if she’d carried too many bags of groceries.
Suddenly, the words I’d heard my mother repeat hundreds of times as I was growing up held new meaning. “Stand up straight ! Lift yourself by pretending strings are pulling you from the tops of your ears.” I thought of myself being pulled up . I felt taller as I came nearer to the market’s doors. This time I saw reflected a woman who looked as if she knew where she was going! But as I rushed home in five o’clock traffic and tried to fix dinner before a seven o’clock meeting, my good manners disappeared. It wasn’t until the next day as I was trying on clothes in a department store that I remembered again. Each thing I put on seemed wrong. Suddenly I recalled the man in the supermarket. I lifted myself up. The dress looked nicer on me. I liked the dress! Sure enough, I looked five to seven pounds lighter. Dieting titles I’d read came to mind, such as “How to Lose Pounds in Weeks?” Now I had a new title: “How to Look Thinner in Seconds.”
68.The boy bagging groceries glanced with respect at the man because    ____   .
A.the man gave him some tips for his service
B.the man walked in a strange way in the supermarket
C.his manners was different from the other people in the supermarket

69.The writer looked five to seven pounds lighter because _________   .
A.she was having a diet
B.she stood straight up
C.she was taking exercise
D.she wore a beautiful dress 
70.The underlined phrase “ set him apart ” in the first passage probably means        .
A.made him unordinary
B.made him strange
C.made him handsome
D.upset him

Put an ice cube from your fridge into a glass of water. You have a piece of string(線) 10 centimeters long. The problem is to take out that piece of ice with the help of the string. But you must not touch the ice with your fingers.
You may ask your friends to try to do that when you are having dinner together. There is a saltcellar on the table. You must use salt when you carry out this experiment.
First you put the string across the piece of ice. Then put some salt on the ice. Salt makes ice melt(融化). The ice round the string will begin to melt. But when it melts, it will lose heat. The cold ice cube will make the salt water freeze again. After a minute or two you may raise the piece of string and with it you will raise your piece of ice!
This experiment can be very useful to you. If, for example, there is ice near the door of your house, you must use very much salt to melt all the ice. If you don’t put enough salt, the water will freeze again.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從下框的A~F選項(xiàng)中選出能概括每一段主題的最佳選項(xiàng),并在答題卡上將該選項(xiàng)涂黑。選項(xiàng)中有一項(xiàng)為多余項(xiàng)。

A. Adults keep pets with their children

B. Pet –keeping has a very long history.

C. Pet-keeping may do harm to animals.

D. People keep pets for their aesthetic need.

E. Caged pets become increasingly popular.

F. Pet-keeping is helpful for children’s growth.

1.    Pet-keeping is a time-honored tradition. One of the reasons for people to raise dogs or cows was usefulness. While people in the past hunted animals and keep them in their backyards, the civilized man today is less cruel towards them and is less exploitative(利用的).

2.   We keep animals as pets because they are attractive. We all have the urge to possess something that has aesthetic(美學(xué)的) value, and that is why we treasure paintings or fine furniture. Keeping pets is one form of this urge. A Siamese cat in the house can be a decorative object. Pets are playful animals and they amuse us. A little rabbit amuses us by its playful and lively runs.

3.   Many people find it helpful to have pets in the house for their children. Having pets is an excellent way of developing in children the love of animals and responsibility. Children get the opportunity to take on full responsibility for another creature’s life. It will be an educational experience for a child to watch the natural life cycle of an animal. There are psychological (心理的) benefits for children. Pets are welcome friends for children who are lonely. Pets are excellent companions. Keeping pets means giving love and being loved. We find comfort in giving care and receiving care in return. We get pleasure from their appearance and their behavior.

4.    As more people move into apartments, there are limitations on keeping of animals like dogs and monkeys. Therefore, caged animals have increased in popularity. Birds fall into this group. We keep them for their beautiful songs and feathers. Fish-keeping is a widespread hobby and keeper can observe their behavior in the glass tank and study its entire life cycle. The cat is a fine house pet and it fits neatly into human habitation(居住地) without requiring its own cage. They are wonderful hunters, if there are rats around.

5.Pets satisfy man’s desire to care for a bit of nature. The pet owner has the responsibility for supplying those needs that nature provides. Pets are amusing and entertaining, but we are in a way doing animals harm by making them live in a human environment. Are we not enslaving(奴役) them?
