Science textbooks around the world have become suddenly out of date. Four new chemical elements(元素)have been added to the periodic table. A big decision now lies ahead-elements 113,115,117 and 118 need to be given their official names and symbols.
New elements can be named after a mythical(神话的) concept, a mineral, a place or country, a property(性质) or a scientist. The names have to be unique and maintain “historical and chemical consistency”. This means a lot of “-iums”.
“They’re Latinising the name,” explains chemist Andrea Sella. “The most recent tradition is to name them after places or people.” The places chosen tend to be where the element was discovered or first produced.
No one has yet named an element after themselves but many elements are named in honour of important scientists. Albert Einstein was given einsteinium. This can also be a way of righting the wrongs of the past. “Lise Meitner was really the chemist who spotted nuclear fission(核裂变)but she was never really recognised for it because she was Jewish and a woman, ” says Sella. “Giving an element a name that reminds us of her is greatly important. ”
The naming process isn’t quick. The scientists who discovered them will start things off by suggesting a name. But it will be down to the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) to approve it. A special division of the US-based group has to accept the suggestion. Then there is a public review period of five months before the IUPAC gets the final approval. Once it’s ready, the name is announced in the scientific journal Pure and Applied Chemistry.
Naming an element is not just about functionality. Names are always important.
1.What is the function of Paragraph 1?
A. To introduce the topic.
B. To present a finding.
C. To point out a problem.
D. To call for a decision,
2.Why was Lise Meitner mentioned in the naming process in Paragraph 4?
A. To praise her.
B. To build her reputation.
C. To correct the wrongs of the past.
D. To end racial discrimination
3.Who has the final say in the naming process of an element?
A. The scientist who discovered them.
B. The special division of US-based group.
C. The scientific journal Pure and Applied Chemistry,
D. The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry.
4.What i$ the passage mainly about?
A. How elements get their names.
B. Why science textbooks are out of date.
C. How new elements are discovered.
D. How functional naming an element is.
How strong are you?
That is a hard question to answer, whether you are a man or a woman. But, really , I want to ask how do you define(给...下定义)your strength? How do you know your limits?1. When push comes, we often discover that we are much stronger than we think.
What is Strength?
Strength is not always about pure physical strength.2. It is about the ability to get things done. I know some people who are intellectually strong, but they get very little done in their jobs. And I know others who find work challenging, but they make it by strong drive and hard work. They possess inner strength.
Self-Imposed Limits
What I have observed is that most people set their own limits. They limit their output based on self-framed limits (自我设定的限制) of their abilities and strengths. Sometimes these boundaries are based on past experiences. Sometimes they are based on self-imagined abilities. 3.So, how do we
break through these limits? How do we get stronger?
4.
If you want to be stronger, you have to push your boundaries. Pushing it is what it takes to increase your limits. In the gym, bodybuilders discovered this long ago. The same principle is true when it comes to inner strength.
Want to test your limits? Push yourself. Test your self-framed limits to see how accurate they are. Make sure your goals are slightly beyond what you think can be achieved.
You Are Stronger Than You Think
Most people underestimate(低估) their strength.5.Test your limits. Push yourself to find your true boundaries and define your strength.
When you discover how much you’ve really got, you may surprise even yourself.
A. Certainly, it is about willpower.
B. Sometimes these limits are based on nothing.
C. How do you know just how much you’ve got?
D. Pushing It
E. As you go through your day, challenge your ability.
F. How can we train our mind and make it stronger?
G. Strength is a combination of physical and mental ability.
