forget that we are all part of nature,” Hu said. The purpose of nature
education is to teach people how to understand, respect and get on well
with nature.
Here comes the other important teacher—books. People learned from
nature and wrote down the experiences in the form of books, because
man could record their experiences and thoughts.#1.2
Books play an important role in our lives. Su Mingjuan,a girl from
a poor family in a small village, has finished college and has become a
good bank clerk. She volunteers to encourage people to read more. She
said, “Without reading books, I can't have such a wonderful life.” Besides
Su, millions of people learn from books and have better lives. Some

话题：死亡谷 难度：★★★ 用时：8分钟#1
Have you ever heard of Death Valley It's a national park lying in
the east of California, the US.The park isn't as scary as its name sounds.
You can enjoy the desert sunshine there. At the same time, you can find
there's nothing out there but some special rocks called “sailing
stones”.Some of the rocks in Death Valley weigh hundreds of pounds.
And on the ground behind each rock is a mysterious trail （痕迹）.It
seems that the rock has been pushed along in the sand.#1.1
It was nearly 100 years ago that the “sailing stones” were reported
for the first time. People have been trying to find out the stones' secret
ever since. Until the 1990s, one widely accepted opinion was that the
rocks were stuck in sheets of ice that were being blown across the desert.
However, research later showed that to move such large ice sheets, the
wind would have to blow at hundreds of miles per hour. There are
strong winds in Death Valley, but not that strong.#1.2
Then in 2006, a scientist named Ralph Lorenz expressed his opinion.
He thought that in winter, thick ice formed （形成） around the rocks.
When the ground began to thaw （解冻）, the rocks, wearing ice, sailed
along and left trails behind them. Lorenz even did a test in his own
kitchen for the purpose of showing his opinion was correct. Has Lorenz
succeeded in solving the mystery of the sailing stones Perhaps. On the
other hand, neither Lorenz nor anybody else has ever actually seen the
stones move. Maybe it was aliens who moved the stones.#1.3

话题：蔬菜枯萎变软实验 难度：★★
用时：6分钟
（24~25广东江门期中改编）#3
Soft-hearted Plants
Sometimes vegetables wilt （枯萎） and get soft. Let's find out
why that happens.
You will need:
A fresh cucumber, a sharp knife, two bowls, water, a vegetable
peeler （削皮刀） and one spoon of salt.
The steps of the experiment:
1.Use your peeler to peel the cucumber and cut it into long strips
（条）.
2.Put strips and water in two bowls.
3.Add salt to one bowl and stir（搅动） the strips until it dissolves
（溶解）.
4.Let bowls sit for several hours, and then examine the cucumber
strips.
续表
What happened
Cucumber strips in salt water are soft, but the ones in plain water
（淡水） are crisp （脆的） and hard.
Cucumber strips are able to take in and leave water. If there is
more salt in the water around the strips than inside the strips, water
will leave the strips. That's why the strips wilt.
If there is more salt in the strips than in the water, water will go
into the strips. That's why the other strips get crisp.

话题：台风“桦加沙” 难度：★★★★ 用时：8分钟
Typhoon Ragasa is the 18th typhoon of the year. It has already
caused serious damage in the Philippines before moving to China. In
China, it made landfall in Yangjiang city in Guangdong province on
September 24th,with strong winds and heavy rain. Millions of people in
Guangdong have been moved to safer places.
Although the typhoon's main path is in southern China,its outer
bands have also brought rain to parts of Zhejiang province.
Schools and factories in affected areas have been closed,and some train
services have stopped.
A typhoon is a strong tropical cyclone（热带气旋） that forms over
warm ocean waters and needs several things to develop.
To keep us safe, we have different warning signals.
When a blue signal goes up, it means average winds may
reach Level 6, or gusts（一阵强风） may reach Level 8 in
the next 24 hours. If it changes to yellow, average winds
could strengthen to Level 8 or higher. An orange signal warns that very
strong winds, possibly Level 10, will come in 12 hours. The red signal
is the most dangerous which tells us extremely strong winds, over Level
12, will arrive in just 6 hours.
