When an apple fell on his head, Newton wondered why it fell downward instead of upward. This simple question led to his discovery of gravity.Similarly, Archimedes made his famous discovery while taking a bath. He noticed that the water level rose as he got into the tub. This observation helped him understand buoyancy.These stories show that great discoveries often start with simple observations and curious minds. Scientists need to be observant and ask questions about everyday phenomena. Sometimes the answers to these questions can change our understanding of the world.( )1. Newton discovered gravity when an apple fell on his head.( )2. Archimedes made his discovery while eating dinner.( )3. Great discoveries never come from simple observations. ( )4. Scientists should be curious about everyday phenomena. ( )5. Asking questions can lead to important discoveries.B. 阅读选择The scientific method is a systematic way to investigate natural phenomena. It typically includes these steps:1. Make observations2. Ask a question3. Form a hypothesis4. Conduct experiments5. Analyze data6. Draw conclusions7. Communicate resultsGood scientists keep detailed records of their work. They repeat experiments to verify results. They also welcome peer review, which helps ensure the reliability of their findings. The scientific method has helped humanity make tremendous progress in understanding nature and developing new technologies.( )6. What is the first step in the scientific method A. Form a hypothesisB. Make observationsC. Conduct experiments( )7. Why do scientists repeat experiments A. To waste timeB. To verify resultsC. To make them more complicated( )8. What is peer review A. Other scientists checking the workB. Students reviewing lessonsC. Public opinion about science( )9. What has the scientific method helped with A. Only understanding natureB. Only developing technologiesC. Both understanding nature and developing technologies( )10. What is the main idea of the passage A. The importance of the scientific methodB. How to become a famous scientistC. The history of scientific discoveries九、书面表达以"The Importance of Curiosity"为题,写一篇80词左右的短文,内容包括:1. 好奇心的重要性2. 好奇心与科学发现的关系3. 如何培养好奇心________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________答案一、单词1. curious2. mind3. discover4. experiment5. serious6. creative7. honest8. passion9. certain10. genuine11. initial12. object13. physics14. chemistry15. biology16. subject17. theory18. practice19. learning20. knowledge二、词组1. curiosity2. scientific experiment3. do research4. propose a theory5. make observations6. analyze data7. draw conclusions8. test a hypothesis9. laboratory10. research project11. natural phenomena12. laws of physics13.chemical equation 14.biodiversity 15.scientific method16.control variables 17.repeat experiments18.scientific discovery 19. knowledge accumulation20.creative thinking三、词性转换1. curiosity2. discovery3. experiment4. creative5. honesty6.passionate7. uncertain8. initially9. practical10. knowledge四、完成句子1. test/verify2.

Newton's curiosity about a falling apple led to the discovery of gravity. To cultivate curiosity, we should observe carefully, ask questions, and seek answers through reading and experiments. Keeping a curious mind helps us learn more about the world and make new discoveries. Let's stay curious and keep exploring! 展开更多...... 收起↑ 资源预览
