Once in a physics class,the teacher asked students, "Why do we have brakes (刹车) in our car?"A student got up and replied, "Sir,to stop the car."Another student replied, "To reduce and control the speed of the car."Another said, "To avoid crashes."Soon,all the students began to give similar answers.So the teacher decided to answer the question himself.He said, "I agree with all of your answers,although I look at it this way—the brakes in our car enable us to make it run faster."
Listening to this,there was a deep silence in the class because no one had imagined this answer.The teacher continued, "For a moment,let's suppose our car has no brakes,then how fast are we ready to drive our car?It is the brakes in our car that give us the courage to drive.faster,as they ensure we can stop when needed and reach our destination(目的地) safely."All the students got confused.They never thought this way about brakes in a car.
The teacher smiled and continued, "Similarly,there are many such Brakes in our life,which stop us or restrict(限制) our movement.Our parents,teachers,friends ask us about direction we want to follow,our progress or decisions in life.We tend to view their questions or difficult situations as Brakes that slow us down.But what if we see them as our supporter that enables us to take risks while making sure that we protect ourselves?From time to time,we have to stop or even step back,so that we can take a big step.It is because of such questions or situations that we are able to reach where we are today.Without these Brakes,we could slip,losedirection or be victim of unlucky accidents.Therefore,we need to understand that Brakes in our life are not meant to push us back but to help us move forward faster than before,so that we can reach our destination quickly and safely.Should we be thankful for Brakes in life or just see them as hindrance (障碍物) to our work?"

Climate change is leading polar bears to be in danger,according to the research published on Monday.It says the top carnivores(食肉动物) could all disappear within the human lifetime.
In some areas,they have fallen into a vicious circle.As sea ice melts,it cuts the time for bears to hunt seals,scientists reported in Nature Climate Change."Their decreasing weight reduces their chances of surviving Arctic winters without food,"the scientists added.
"The bears face an ever longer fasting period (禁食期) before the ice refreezes and they can head back out to feed,"Steven Amstrup,who designed the study,told AFP.
The study thought the number of polar bears in subpopulations(亚种群) will lessen by the rapid pace of change in the Arctic.The polar bears in 12 of 13 subpopulations will disappear within 80 years.The Arctic is warming at three times the rate of the Earth."By 2100,the number of newborn polar bears will decrease to 0,except in the Queen Elizabeth Island subpopulations,"said Amstrup.
According to the study,now one degree of warming has caused many disasters.Sea level rise will lead to even more problems.Even if human can control global warming at 2.4℃,it would probably only delay the disappearance of polar bears.There are many animals at risk on earth,but only polar bears are endangered mainly by climate change.In fact,the rising temperature is not a danger to other animals,but to polar bears.They cannot get used to a rapidly changing environment.
"However,the situation may not last long,and should be seen as a warning of how climate will influence other animals in the coming years,"the experts said.
The polar bear's"weak"status is on the IUCN Red List of endangered species,but it does not show their difficulties,the experts argue.The IUCN has taken measures in place to stop stealing."But we cannot build a fence to protect sea ice from rising temperatures,"said Amstrup.
39.How does the melting of sea ice influence polar bears? ______
A. Polar bears' population will rise.
B. Polar bears can find more food easily.
C. Polar bears may live longer than before.
D. Polar bears have less time to hunt seals.
40.According to the study by Amstrup,why would rising temperatures cause fewer polar bears? ______
A. Rising temperatures make polar bears become homeless.
B. Rising temperatures have left polar bears without food.
C. Polar bears can't live in such a quickly changing environment.
D. The rising sea level is stopping people from protecting polar bears.
41.What do the experts think of the influence of temperature on polar bear population? ______
A. Annoying. B. Harmless. C. Unimportant. D. Worrying.
D
Welcome to the world of clay sculpting(泥塑)!Shape your imagination and show your creativity.Here are some tips to help you pick the right clay and improve your sculpting skills.
What type of clay should you use?
There are several types of clay used for sculptures,depending on how you can use them and the type of finished product you would like to have.
Oil-based modeling clay
※ hard and does not dry out like water-based clay
※ not easy to work with as it requires heat to soften
Polymer-based modeling clay
※ soft and does not dry out,making it easy to mold (成形)
"Firing"clay
※ water-based clay
※ easy to sculpt with this clay to create different shapes
Walter E.Disney clay
※ water-based clay
※ used by experienced sculptors
Using water-based clay is the best for beginners to practise sculpting skills at home.It is by far the easiest to use to create shapes with simple tools and it can be cleaned up easily with soap and water.
How do you start sculpting?
Follow the five useful tips to make clay sculptures.
Think of the final piece

Shape your clay
Coiling the clay is a good way of turning clay into circles to create detailed shapes.This prevents the shaped clay from breaking into pieces.
Try out and practise
Check how different tools affect the material.Try out ways of building up clay,connecting pieces and adding details.
Have fun
All sculptors improve by learning from their mistakes.Working with clay is supposed to be a relaxing and fun experience.Do not be afraid to try even if you know nothing.
