There lived a group of monkeys, and the smallest monkeys loved to throw bananas at any plant that started to grow. 2 When she told the other seeds what happened, they thought that it would be better to wait until the monkeys went away. They all agreed with that, except the first seed. 3 When she tried, she was hurt by bananas. The other seeds asked her to stop trying, but she had made up her mind to become a tree. She tried again and again. Every time she was hit (被打) by bananas, she would try harder.

It hopes to become the most important encyclopaedia again. 1 It moved to Chicago in 1935. In 1990, the company sold more than 100,000 sets of books. 2 Book sales dropped during the time of the Internet because people stopped getting information only from books. 3 Some online encyclopedias started in the early 21st century.

Do I go over my notes even when there isn’t a test? ※ Do I have a good place to do my homework? ※ Have I tried different ways of studying? If your worry is about a fight you had with a friend, you might write down all the things you could do—write a note to him or her, invite him or her to a basketball game, say sorry to him or her, etc. 4 3.

Well, although somebody does well at school, it does not mean he or she is successful. It’s good to remember: If somebody has trouble with something at school, it does not mean he or she is stupid. 1 Isaac Newton did not do well at school for a long time because he was always thinking about things. 2 For example, one day there was a terrible windstorm on the farm. His mother was worried that the wind might break gates and doors. 3 Isaac went out, but he didn’t come back. He watched the strong wind blow things all around and thought, “I wonder ...” His mother waited and waited. 4 When she found him, he was jumping up off a fence over and over again to see how far the wind would carry him. He thought about how strong the wind was and forgot about everything else. This was Isaac Newton. 5 A．Was he stupid or clever? B．Isaac Newton was just an example!

The computer programme looks for different kinds of answers or patterns in the data. Big data can have different kinds of information from many sources, such as information that comes from schools, social media sites, companies and governments. 1 Another set can have what they like, where they go, and how much time they spend on the computer. 2 The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains. This information is then used to make bus or train systems better. Some schools use big data to understand which children may need extra help in class. The teacher can then give certain students more help or support so those students can succeed in school. Companies use big data, too. 3 For example, one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice creams. Big data can be used for different purposes. Some hospitals use big data to predict if a baby who is born too early will get sick. 4 It can also be used to predict which kinds of people are likely to break the law or hurt others, even if they have not done anything wrong. Why can big data be used for various purposes? It is because the computer programs used to read and understand big data are written by people who think in a certain way. They build a model of those ideas. The model is then used to read the data. Sometimes, good ideas are helpful for people or business. 5 A．Big data can be used in many ways.
