Scientists study the world and learn about things using a process called the scientific method(方法). By asking important questions and   16  the answers, it is possible to make amazing discoveries! Sometimes a scientist is   17  to answer his own questions, but if he has taken good notes another scientist may come along later who is able to use new knowledge to answer it.
When you use the scientific method to   18  an experiment, you start by making observations(观察) about something that  19  you. Based on your observations, you make a hypothesis. This is using  20  you know to make a smart guess about what you think could happen. Then you are ready to begin your experiment. All   21  your experiment you take down notes, which are   22   experiment date(资料). You are constantly making observations during this time. You may make discoveries that cause you to improve your experiment as you go.   23  , you conclude your experiment and begin to look over your notes to decide what it all means. Based on what you have learned, you make a final statement about   24  your hypothesis was correct or not. You have to have reasons and evidence to support what you are saying.
Using the scientific method can be difficult, but rewarding. Because all the steps are organized in a process, the   25  are more valid(可信的). When you provide observations as evidence to support what you are saying, your ideas are more likely to be accepted.

Several weeks ago, our headmaster, Mr. Gaudi, told us that our school had been chosen to compete on Smart Aleck—a game show which my best friend Carla and I both love. Carla has a good imagination, and I know a lot of history, so we thought we’d be good __35__ for the team.
A few days later, Mr. Gaudi held a meeting with everyone interested in the__36__ . He told us that Smart Aleck uses a five member team. He also said that three more people would be needed as backup(替补). Unluckily four times that many students were at the meeting. So Mr. Gaudi said we would have a __37__ and the top eight scorers would become the team and the backup. Everybody agreed that this was a __38__ way to decide.
Yesterday, all of the hopefuls went to the dining hall after school. We would have to decide the starting line-up(阵容).Mr. Gaudi acted as the host. After a couple of hours, all the __39__ on the team were set except one. Carla and I __40__ for that last position. We had to hold a one-on-one competition between the two of us. The winner would be on the team and the loser would be the backup.
Midway through our two-person competition, I was starting to pull ahead.__41__ I saw the look on Carla's face. I waited for a second and knew what I had to do. As much as I wanted to be on Smart Aleck, Carla wanted __42__ even more. So, starting with my next question, I held back and let Carla __43__, just by a little bit. Her expression as she __44__ she would be on the show made up for my not being on the team. And since I will go as backup, I'll still have the fun of seeing the show up close.
Was I __45__ by not trying as hard as I could? I don't think so. No one noticed, and Carla and I didn't __46__ it. It won't hurt the team because Carla will be a very good competitor on the real show. I think that making my best friend happy was the right thing to do.

Arnold Pointer, a professional fisherman from the south of Australia, set free (释放) a big female white shark that was    1   in his large fishing nets. He thought she would have more and more babies. But now the fisherman is facing a(n)    2   problem. The white shark is so    3   to him that for nearly 2 years she hasn’t left him    4  . She even follows him everywhere.   5  this, Arnold Pointer can’t do fishing — all the fishes are scared at her, and he doesn’t know    6   to do anymore.
It is hard to drive away such an almost 17-feet-long shark for Arnold Pointer. We all know the white sharks are protected   7  the wildlife conservation. At the same time, some special feeling has been    8   between Arnold and “Cindy”, the name the fisherman has given the white shark.
Arnold says, “Every time I stop the boat, she always comes to me, turns on her back and lets me pet (抚摸) her body and neck. She sings, turns her eyes, and moves her fins (鳍) up and down, hits the water   9 .”
Cindy is   10  an interesting animal that Arnold has to try to go fishing in different places. Doesn’t Cindy know what her action means? Maybe she really doesn’t understand.

Recently, an Internet game has become a new fashion among young office workers and students. People can “farm” on a piece of “land” and “grow”, “sell” or even “steal” “vegetables”, “flowers” and “fruits” on the Net. They can earn(挣) some e-money and buy more “seed”(种子), “pets” and even “houses”.
Li You from Xi’an said people in the city get tired from work, they go to their own farms, take care of their crops(庄稼), and pull out weeds(杂草). It is glad to forget about the pressure in cities.
Li Bu grew up in a small village, and then he went to a city, but now he misses the life in the village and “Happy Farms” makes the country dream possible in his office. He said every time he sees his crops, dogs, and grasses, he feels like he is in the village again. When he is working on his farm, he can feel the breath of nature, and get happiness from farming and harvesting(收获).
Li Lei enjoys putting some “bugs”(虫) in my friends’ garden and they’ve become closer because of the game. Having fun together is the most exciting thing about it.
Li Hong said it was just a waste of time. Teenagers spend so many hours on it and they can’t focus on their study.

A greeting is a way of saying "Hello" to someone. People in different countries greet each other in different ways. Here are some.

World Greetings
Philippine
The everyday greeting for friends is a handshake for both men and women. Men some­times pat each other on the back.
Japan
When people meet for the first time, they usually bow. In business, people also shake hands.
In formal situations, people often exchange business cards. When you give a business card, give it with two hands. This is polite.
Special note: In Japan, a smile can have different meanings. It usually means that the person is happy, or that the person thinks something is funny. But it can also mean that the person is embarrassed.
New Zealand
Usually, both men and women shake hands when they meet someone for the first time.
Fun fact: If you see two people pressing their noses together, they are probably Maori. The Maori are the native people of New Zealand. This is their traditional greeting.
Brazil
Men often shake hands when they meet for the first time.
When women meet, they kiss each other on the cheek. Women also kiss male friends to say hello.
When you shake hands, look at the person in the eyes. This shows interest and friendliness.

I used to live in Kobe in Japan. On my way home on the bus every evening I used to look for an old man who often played his saxophone (萨克斯管) near the river. I couldn’t hear his music because the windows were closed on the bus but I imagined it to be loud and clear. I wanted to be like that man.
One night I went to Himeji, a city not far from Kobe. As I walked with my family along the river I saw a statue. It was a young man who looked just like me. He was wearing a cap and smiling. Around his neck was a leather strap (皮带) and in his hands was a saxophone. He was lifting the saxophone to his lips and he was just about to play. I stayed there for a long time by the statue dreaming of playing a saxophone on TV.
Two weeks later it was my birthday. Imagine my joy when I opened my present from my parents and found that it was a saxophone! I put it to my lips to play, but it wouldn’t make a sound. Then Dad told me to read the instruction book to find out what to do. After about 15 minutes the saxophone was ready to play. I raised it slowly to my lips as my family watched. But still there was no sound. I blew and blew but I couldn’t get the saxophone to play. I was almost crying when suddenly the saxophone made the most beautiful sound—loud and clear like I imagined the music of the man by the river in Kobe. I blew again, I moved my fingers on the saxophone and I made more sounds. I was happy because I was playing very interesting sounds. But I wasn’t playing music yet.
Then came the lessons. Night after night, week after week my teacher made me practice. Slowly I started to improve and at last there came the magic day when I started to play music. Now I’m in the TV studio with my saxophone strapped to my neck and my cap on my head. I’m always thinking of the man by the river in Kobe and the statue smiling at me in Himeiji. I’m a happy man.
