Kids are born for science. This idea may surprise you because science seems d 1 to learn. Yet it really holds water and science learning is likely to make a great d 2 in kids’ lives.
The most important part of science is a mixture of t 3 and experiment called the scientific method. It’s where you start with an idea, create a way to explain your idea, and show what you learned based on facts. Learning to follow this process helps you think logically (逻辑地) and carefully.
One of the greatest thing we can teach our children is to love learning. Learning science is a great way to do so. Children are a 4 by science because much of science is hands-on. Nothing draws a child to sitting up and taking notice like science experiments.
Science opens doors to many s 5 at school. Building love for science can be helpful in other areas of study. For example, one cannot love science for very long without becoming good at its language — math! So, science encourage children to study math. An interest in science is an interest in how things were once understood compared to how they are understood now. As a result, studying science leads itself easily to studying history.
Science is the b 6 thing for much of our life. The science of famring shows how our food is produced; biomedical (生物医学的) science keeps us healthy; e 7 our beds these days are designed according to scientific facts. We almost eat, sleep and breath with the help of science!

Everybody’s Tweeting
With the words “just setting up my tweet”, Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey launched a site that would change how we communicate forever. Twitter was originally created as a messaging system for a podcasting website, but it takes on a life of its own as people realize it o 1 them the power to connect with millions of people instantly. But what are we using it for, and just how is Twitter changing the way we do things?
Perhaps the greatest effect Twitter has had is on breaking news. Before Twitter, news had to get the a 2 of a journalist, who then had to make sure the news was accurate and true before finally broadcasting it on the radio or TV. These days a 3 who happens to be in the right place at the right time with a Twitter account can post news the second it happens. With retweets it can be half around the world in seconds. A perfect example of this was when a US flight made an emergency landing in the Hudson River in New York City. “There’s a plane in the Hudson. I’m on the ferry going to pick up the people. Crazy!” is how eyewitness Janis Krums broke the story to the world with this Tweet and a photo of the unusual event.
Young people have always loved to follow their pop idols, and Twitter has made it a whole lot easier. Before the Internet, teenagers used to join the fan clubs of their idols and write letters to their heroes. If they were l 4 two weeks later they’d get a reply written by the club secretary. Today’s teenagers don’t need to wait. By following their idols on Twitter they get all the news the minute it happens. They get to hear what they had for breakfast, what they did the night before, what they’re thinking as they sit waiting for a plane. They get to hear it d 5 from their idols themselves.
Twitter allows people who think the same way to get t 6 and do something about the things they care about. They can share information, organize campaigns and put p 7 on governments and big businesses to change. It allows people to stand up to things such as cyber bullying, sexism and racism. Twitter has given the man and woman on the street the power to make a difference.

According to UNESCO (联合国教科文组织), there are 740 million people unable to read or write in this world. And 250 million children of primary school age have no basic reading and writing skills. However, reading makes everything p 1 in life: education, work and escaping poverty (贫困). Considering that, the Global School Community aims to bring digital books to all the children of the world and their families.
Digital technology makes a real difference. It can reach across the world and is fairly inexpensive. The Global School Community makes e-books available to children all around the world, e 2 through mobile phones, Ipads or computers, saving the cost of making books and transport. Technology also helps improve our communication skills. Through the use of technology, teachers and children around the world can meet online to s 3 lessons and discuss ideas. Remote schooling (远程教学) is one example of the success of communication through the Internet.
The first books a child reads can have a great e 4 on that child. The greater it is, the more likely the child is to continue reading and learning throughout his life. E-books, which are a 5 the electronic editions (版本) of printed books, not only provide knowledge and information, but help people grow healthily in mind. They can provide hours of entertainment and can connect schools all over the world. Studies have shown that children make much p 6 after only five months of reading e-books. Bid o Hafrag, a child from Egypt, said, “Reading e-books not only helps me learn to read and write, but gives me much confidence. It also helps me have a b 7 understanding of the world.”

Most of us spend our lives surrounded by screens, with which we manage our work, our recreation and our relationships. These devices offer us convenience as well as connection and a lot of information. H 1 , it’s also easy to feel pressured to keep up with every message. More and more people want to take a break from technology.
The phrase “digital detox” describes staying away from TV, phones, computers and other forms of technology that c 2 our lives for a period of time. These breaks can occur in a variety of ways. Some experts suggest completely avoiding u 3 screen time for 30 days. Others suggest using an app that will limit the amount of time one can spend on certain websites. A third option is logging out in evenings and/or on w 4 . Others simply turn their phones off. Some even pay high prices to take vacations in places where they can take time out from technology.
Why do you want to take a digital detox? Perhaps you find that you are spending longer than you plan on certain apps or that they distract you from more important things. Perhaps social media is depressing because you compare yourself to others or you f 5 missing out on things that other people are enjoying.
Technology can also have p 6 effects. Many people experience back or neck pain and the blue light coming from most screens can also affect people’s sleep.
On one research trip, a group of people agreed to spend four days w 7 their smartphones. By the time the phone-free period ended, many people in the group had made important decisions about their work or relationships. Others had decided to live a healthier lifestyle. Only when they took a break from technology could they think about really important things.
Giving up all screens may not be realistic, but strategic breaks from technology my be good for your body, mind, emotions and relationships.

One of the first science fiction books published was Jules Verne’s Journey to the Centre of the Earth, written in 1864. This popular book marked the b 1 of our strong interest in science fiction. Since then, there have been books, magazines, computer games, radio and TV shows and films.
A science fiction story doesn’t just focus on the future; it focuses on the use of science in our future. Sometimes things that are written in science fiction stories a 2 become true. Star Trek first appeared on television in 1966. The crew of the spaceship spoke to each other on small mobile devices. A robot starred in the 1927 film, Metropolis.
In the 1982 film, Blade Runner, video communication was s 3 as an exciting thing of the future. This is one of the reasons why science fiction is so popular. It lets us think about how our world might be in the future. It gives us ideas about how we might make things on the Earth better than they are n 4 . It gives us possible solutions to problems.
A 5 reason is that it begins to answer some of the biggest questions in life, questions like Are we alone in the universe? What could we do better? Science fiction gives us the chance to think about these questions and c 6 possible answers.
People also like to get away from their daily lives through science fiction. It is d 7 to imagine a better way of doing this than reading a fantastic story about a place you have never been to and creatures you cannot imagine. It does this by making us feel that anything is possible.
Perhaps science fiction could also make us feel lucky to live here on the Earth. Perhaps it could even make us take better care of our planet.

Storing data(数据) has become more convenient. Thirty years ago, people had to depend on floppy disks(软磁盘). N 1 , all we have to do is hit the “Save” button on our screens. The files will then be stored in the “cloud.” It seems that we will never run out of space. Isn’t that great?
In fact, however, the storage space we now have is not c 2 enough. Every day, 4. 5 billion internet users create a LARGE amount of data. By 2025, the amount of data worldwide will have r 3 175 zettabytes (1 ZB=1012 GB). Clearly, we can’t cover every piece of land on the planet with data centers. So where can we store all of this data?
Fortunately, some researchers have been working on new storage technologies. One of these technologies is DNA storage. DNA storage sounds futurist, but in some ways, it’s just the opposite. B 4 computers were invented, nature had been using DNA to store information.
In 2012, researchers at Harvard University wrote a book, 11 pictures and a computer program into human DNA.Each gram of DNA can hold 2.2 petabytes (PB.of information (1 ZB =1,048,576 PB.If DNA is kept in the right condition, it can keep the stored information s 5 for a million years.
There are still p 6 with using DNA for data storage. For example, it takes lots of time to write into and read from DNA.Scientists are trying to i 7 this technology. We will have to wait to see how their efforts pay off in the future.

Life has gone mostly online for many people around the world. With more people going online during the pandemic, global internet traffic has become a big problem. Between January and late March, a quarter of big cities experienced an i 1 in internet traffic. Video meetings, online classrooms and stay-at-home entertainment have become a lifeline to the outside world. The increasing use of internet is t 2 the internet’s power. Many people cannot surf the internet as fast as usual. In March, phone networks in the UK experienced mass outages(断供). People were not able to take calls.
In the US, main telecommunications(电信)companies like AT&T said traffic was u 3 21 percent month over month. Video streaming services like YouTube, Netflix and Facebook have cut their qualities and download speeds. This is being done to reduce network traffic jams.
China has seen an internet traffic increase of around 50 percent c 4 to the end of 2019. The country’s network speeds went down sharply in early February. However, they r 5 to normal soon afterwards and have been working well.
This is due to China’s work in building network infrastructure(基础设施), e 6 5G technology. By the end of February, 164, 000 5G base stations had been built nationwide. This has given Chinese networks the power to withstand increased traffic.
“If there were no such development in the internet network field, people could hardly enjoy such a colorful life at home. O 7 working and teaching could never be realized so smoothly,” Wen Ku, an official with the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.

Central Processing Unit (CPU)
The most important part of any computer is its central processing unit, or CPU. It is the CPU that information and instructions are processed. The CPU has a memory unit. This unit s 1 information and instructions. It holds information and instructions until they are needed. In some computers, the memory is a group of magnetic cores (磁芯). In o 2 , it is a magnetic tape, disk, or drum. Information appears on tapes and disks as magnetic spots. In the smallest computers, the memory, or even the whole CPU, may be on a tiny piece of equipment called a chip (芯片).
The CPU a 3 has an arithmetic (运算) unit. This is another main part which sorts information and computes—add, subtracts, and so on.
An important unit of the CPU is called the “captain” of the computer because it can c 4 the work of the computer. It gets instructions from the memory. Then it tells the memory what information to send to the arithmetic unit. F 5 , it tells the arithmetic unit how to process the information.
Input Equipment
Input means information that is fed into a computer. B 6 a computer can do any work, information and instructions must go into it. Such information and instruction for a computer is called software. The input equipment takes information and instruction from the outside world. Then it puts it into code (代码) for the computer to use. Special keyboards serve as input equipment on most home computers.
Output Equipment
Output means information delivered from a computer according to coded instruction. Information can come out of a computer in many f 7 . It can show up on a display screen, or it can be turned out on paper by a printer.

A 5 reason is that it begins to answer some of the biggest questions in life, questions like Are we alone in the universe? What could we do better? Science fiction gives us the chance to think about these questions and c 6 possible answers.
People also like to get away from their daily lives through science fiction. It is d 7 to imagine a better way of doing this than reading a fantastic story about a place you have never been to and creatures you cannot imagine. It does this by making us feel that anything is possible.
Perhaps science fiction could also make us feel lucky to live here on the Earth. Perhaps it could even make us take better care of our planet.

Storing data(数据) has become more convenient. Thirty years ago, people had to depend on floppy disks(软磁盘). N 1 , all we have to do is hit the “Save” button on our screens. The files will then be stored in the “cloud.” It seems that we will never run out of space. Isn’t that great?
In fact, however, the storage space we now have is not c 2 enough. Every day, 4. 5 billion internet users create a LARGE amount of data. By 2025, the amount of data worldwide will have r 3 175 zettabytes (1 ZB=1012 GB). Clearly, we can’t cover every piece of land on the planet with data centers. So where can we store all of this data?
Fortunately, some researchers have been working on new storage technologies. One of these technologies is DNA storage. DNA storage sounds futurist, but in some ways, it’s just the opposite. B 4 computers were invented, nature had been using DNA to store information.
In 2012, researchers at Harvard University wrote a book, 11 pictures and a computer program into human DNA.Each gram of DNA can hold 2.2 petabytes (PB.of information (1 ZB =1,048,576 PB.If DNA is kept in the right condition, it can keep the stored information s 5 for a million years.
There are still p 6 with using DNA for data storage. For example, it takes lots of time to write into and read from DNA.Scientists are trying to i 7 this technology. We will have to wait to see how their efforts pay off in the future.

Central Processing Unit (CPU)
The most important part of any computer is its central processing unit, or CPU. It is the CPU that information and instructions are processed. The CPU has a memory unit. This unit s 1 information and instructions. It holds information and instructions until they are needed. In some computers, the memory is a group of magnetic cores (磁芯). In o 2 , it is a magnetic tape, disk, or drum. Information appears on tapes and disks as magnetic spots. In the smallest computers, the memory, or even the whole CPU, may be on a tiny piece of equipment called a chip (芯片).
The CPU a 3 has an arithmetic (运算) unit. This is another main part which sorts information and computes—add, subtracts, and so on.
An important unit of the CPU is called the “captain” of the computer because it can c 4 the work of the computer. It gets instructions from the memory. Then it tells the memory what information to send to the arithmetic unit. F 5 , it tells the arithmetic unit how to process the information.
Input Equipment
Input means information that is fed into a computer. B 6 a computer can do any work, information and instructions must go into it. Such information and instruction for a computer is called software. The input equipment takes information and instruction from the outside world. Then it puts it into code (代码) for the computer to use. Special keyboards serve as input equipment on most home computers.
Output Equipment
Output means information delivered from a computer according to coded instruction. Information can come out of a computer in many f 7 . It can show up on a display screen, or it can be turned out on paper by a printer.
