4 USEFUL EXPRESSIONS TO IMPROVE YOUR SPOKEN ENGLISH

For example, “Tom went missing during the rainstorm last night, but luckily, he was found ▲ . “ Best of all, Americans use them a lot. They are really useful! OK? Let’s start!

Fair and square
If something such as a game or decision is “fair and square”, it’s honest and fair.

Alive and well

The scientific method is used for simple experiments that students may do in the classroom or very difficult experiments that scientists are doing all over the world. It is a way of thinking that helps you to avoid drawing incorrect conclusions.
There are usually four steps in the scientific method, including observation (观察), hypothesis (假设), experiment, and conclusion. The steps may not always be completed in the same order, but the first step is usually observation and asking a question about your observation. For example, you had a sick stomach, and ate a candy bar. An hour later, you observed that you felt much better. Here, you can ask a question, such as, “What makes a sick stomach feel better?”
The second step is to state a possible answer to the question, or a hypothesis, such as “” A good hypothesis includes three things: The explanation for the observations, it is able to be tested, and it will usually predict new outcomes or conclusions.
The third step is the experiment, to test the hypothesis. An experiment is a test which will either challenge or support the hypothesis. The hypothesis will then be true or false.
The final step is to think about what happened when you tested the hypothesis and draw a conclusion. The conclusion will either clearly support the hypothesis or it will not. If the results support the hypothesis, a conclusion can be written and you can share it with the rest of the world. If it does not support the hypothesis, you may choose to change the hypothesis or write a new one based on what was learned during the experiment.
( )8. Which sentence best expresses the main idea of the passage?
A. How do the four basic steps in the scientific method work?
B. What makes a good hypothesis based on the observation?
C. The conclusion will always clearly support the hypothesis.
D. Learning the scientific method may help students succeed in science.
( )9. Which sentence should go in the empty box in Paragraph 3?
A.A candy bar makes a sick stomach feel better.
B. It was the medicine you took an hour earlier that made you feel better.
C. Eat a candy bar again, and see what happens to your sick stomach.
D. Ask people if eating a candy bar has made a sick stomach feel better.
( )10. What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to?
A. The hypothesis. B. The conclusion. C. The question. D. The observation.
( )11. Which of the following sentences about the experiment is TRUE?
A. An experiment is a test to always support the hypothesis.
B. An experiment does not have to be part of the scientific method.
C. An experiment is a test to either challenge or support a hypothesis.
D. An experiment is only used when scientists are trying to prove a hypothesis.
D
Many of us have seen rainbows in the sky once the sun starts shining again after it rains. For us to see a rainbow, the conditions need to be just right. We need some water drops in the air, like rain or even fog, and we need the sun to be behind us and quite low to the ground. This is because a rainbow is created by light passing through water drops.
The light that comes from the sun seems white to us. But the white light we see is made up of a mix of different colors. When the light goes through a raindrop, these colors can separate out. Each of the colors in the rainbow has a different “wavelength” (波长). Raindrops look like little balls. When light hits one of these little balls of water, the light can change direction. We call this “refraction” (折射). Each of the different wavelengths is refracted differently. If the light hits the raindrop at the right place, the refraction separates the wavelengths out into their different colors.
We are taught there are seven colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. But this isn’t exactly true. Blue and green are next to each other in the rainbow, which is why we can see turquoise (a mix of blue and green). Brown is a mix of red and green. But they aren’t next to each other in the rainbow, so we don’t see them mix to make brown.
We would never see black and white in a rainbow. Black is what we see when there’s no light at all. On the other hand, white is a mix of all the colors together. When light is refracted by raindrops, it separates the white light out, meaning it is no longer white.
( )12. We can see a rainbow under the right conditions because ________.
A. the raindrops are like little balls B. the light goes through raindrops
C. the sunshine seems to be colorful D. the weather is foggy after it rains
( )13. According to the passage, what can we know about the colors in the rainbow?
A. They can become brown or black. B. There are only seven colors in all.
C. They mix to make the white light. D. Their own places can be changed.
( )14. Which part of a magazine may this passage be taken from?
A. Science. B. Health. C. Culture. D. Fashion.
( )15. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. How are the colors received in the rainbow?
B. When can the colors turn blue in the rainbow?
C. Which colors aren’t covered with light in the rainbow?
D. Why can’t we find white, black and brown in the rainbow?

第六节 书面表达。(共1小题,25分)
Dear friends,
Since the “Double Reduction” policy was carried out, we have had more spare time to enjoy after-school activities. Now let me tell you how I make my spare time more meaningful.
First, we can take part in more voluntary work, such as visiting the old and chatting with them. Second, we can join different clubs because different kinds of activities can enrich our spare time. Third, it’s good to help our parents do some housework to show our love for them. Fourth, it is a good chance for us to get close to nature and relax ourselves.
In my opinion, we can do some sports to make us stronger and healthier. In a word, let’s make full use of our spare time and promote our literacy.
That’s all. Thank you.
