8.At that timeit was not obvious that water was to be fundamental to the development of life.(obvious)
水会对生命的发展起关键作用,这一点在当时 并不明显.

分析 水会对生命的发展起关键作用,这一点在当时并不明显.

解答 答案:it was not obvious
解析:"这一点不明显"中的"这一点"指的就是that后面的内容"水会对生命的发展起关键作用",由此可知本句是由that引导的主语从句作真正主语,而前面使用it作形式主语.又根据前面的"在那时"可知,主句该使用一般过去时.综上,本题答案为:it was not obvious.

17.In my last essay,I wrote briefly about a bathtub in the classroom.What really was the use of that bathtub?"Guys,it is Reading Workshop time now.When I call your table,get your things,please!"said Mrs.Toalson.She was holding a cup that had many sticks in it; on every stick was written each student's name and table number.
What does she mean?Probably books,I thought.Mrs.Toalson picked a stick out of the cup and said,"Okay,Aniqa's table; Table Two,you may get your things."Then my four classmates ran for the cushions(垫子)in the bathtub.Mrs.Toalson kept picking sticks and calling out different table numbers.On hearing their numbers,students would run to get cushions.Because there were not enough cushions for everyone,the last to be called had to go without.Those students sighed,"Oh!They are the lucky ones."
Finally,Mrs.Toalson picked the last stick; what is she going to do now?
"Kate,you may use the bathtub."Mrs.Toalson said.Gosh!Use the bathtub?Is Kate going to take a bath,I wondered.Kate is the girl who had pretty brown hair.She ran happily with her book to the bathtub and lay down in it.As she read,she hugged a teddy bear.I think it must be comfortable reading in a bathtub.
Except for lucky Kate,everybody had to read elsewhere.Some were sitting on the seats,some were lying down under the table,and everybody's reading pose(姿势)was different.
Just then,my friend found me sitting at my table quietly,not doing anything.She said,"Mary,let me find you a book."I nodded.Then she led me to a comer of the classroom where the book-shelf was and picked a picture book for me.
Regina thought that it would be more fun to read outside on the grass.What a great idea!The next day our whole class went to the park across the street from our school.As we read,animals such as squirrels ran around us.It was amazing!

C.Not every student can get a cushion in Mrs.Toalson's Reading Workshop.

18.Nobody likes home economics (家政学).But thinking back the program could help us in the fight against being overweight and chronic (慢性的) diseases today.
The home economics movement was founded on the belief that housework and food preparation were important subjects that should be studied scientifically.The first classes occurred in the agricultural and technical colleges that were built in the 1860s.When most departments of universities were not willing to accept women,home economics was a back door into higher education.
Indeed,in the early 20th century,home economics was a serious subject.When few people understood germ (微生物) theory and almost no one had heard of vitamins,home economics classes offered important information about washing hands regularly,eating fruits and vegetables and not feeding coffee to babies.
However,today we remember only the fixed ideas about home economics,forgetting the movement's most important lessons on healthy eating and cooking.Too many Americans simply don't know how to cook.Our diets,made up of highly processed foods made cheaply outside the home,have led to many serious health problems.In recent years,many cities and states have tried to tax junk food heavily or to forbid the use of food stamps (食品券) to buy soda.Clearly,many people are doubtful about any governmental steps to push ahead with healthy eating.But what if the government put the tools of obesity(肥胖) prevention in the hands of children themselves by teaching them how to cook?
My first experience with home economics happened 20years ago when I was a seventh grader in a North Carolina public school.A year later,my father's job took our family to Wales,where I attended a large school for a few months.It was the first time I had ever really cooked anything.I remember that it was fun,and with an instructor standing by,it wasn't hard.Those lessons stuck with me when I first started cooking for my husband and myself after college and they still do.Teaching cooking in public schools can help solve some problems facing Americans today.The history of home economics shows it's possible.
