层级二 素养提升
Ⅳ.阅读
“How can you be okay with living in a country so far away and so different?” “The language is so hard.How are you going to be able to find your way around?” These are the most common questions I heard after I told people I was going to study abroad in China, a country that seemed so far away.Why risk dealing with that when Paris or London would be so much more accessible?
But a part of studying abroad is about embracing (欣然接受) the inaccessible.I took Chinese in high school and fell in love with it.Ever since I started college, I was determined to study in China.Three years later, I made it happen.
Of course, it was not easy.At the airport, people spoke English so I didn't worry too much about finding my way around.And then I met other foreign students who would become my best friends for five straight months.But once leaving the airport and downtown areas, we were fully immersed(沉浸) in China.I lived in a more suburb-like(类似城郊的) area, more residential than the rest of Shanghai.People always looked at us curiously as we went about our days and few of them spoke English. It was awkward at first.Slowly, as we got more used to the language, people talked with us.Of course, they wanted to know the differences between living in America and living in China.
My roommate studied abroad in Ireland last semester while I was in China.There is nothing wrong with going to Europe, but if you want to broaden your horizons, I would suggest looking elsewhere.Living in a place that is so different from what I am used to gives me valuable experiences I can't get any other way.My Chinese teacher was so amazing and patient with us, and my other Chinese friends helped me through the difficult part of feeling out of place in the unknown.In a strange way, not being able to express everything I want brings me closer to people.

What a Scientist Is Like
If you were asked to imagine a scientist, what image would come to your mind?The common idea that most kids from kindergarten through college have of a scientist is a man wearing a white lab coat with messy hair, big glasses, and several glass cups of mysterious colorful liquids giving off clouds of smoke.As for adults, the majority view scientists as strange people who spend 100 hours a week slaving away in a lonely laboratory.However, the reality is quite different.
Recently I've had a chance to take part in a scientific experience far from my laboratory and into Costa Rica.It supports a huge amount of wildlife due to its geographical placement between North and South America.It is home to more than 500,000 species, which are at present nearly 4% of the total species worldwide!
First we worked alongside conservationists to preserve wildlife at a leatherback turtle (棱皮龟) rescue centre.We helped the volunteers preserve turtle populations by removing rubbish from the shoreline to create a safe environment for turtle eggs to come out.After that we stayed at Mount Arenal where we studied seismic activity relating to earthquakes.During our stay at Arenal, we rode over the mountainous areas and took a long walk through the rainforest.After reaching the top, we went down and through waterfalls to the beautiful valley below!On the last day we got a hands-on introduction to rocket science where we learnt about new rocket technology that will be used on the international space station.
During my Costa Rica experience, I know that being a scientist doesn't mean working in a lab all day and night.A scientist is one who loves learning and getting a better understanding of the world from helping preserve wildlife, learning about earthquakes or inventing rockets.I think that schools should really stress that science is so much more than wearing a lab coat and mixing chemicals.Kids need to be aware of the excitement and adventures science can bring!
