Teamwork is just as important in science as it is on the playing field or in the gym.Scientific investigations(调查)are almost always carried out by teams of people working together.Ideas are shared, experiments are designed, data are analyzed, and results are evaluated and shared with other investigators.Group work is necessary, and is usually more productive than working alone.
Several times throughout the year you may be asked to work with one or more of your classmates.Whatever the task your group is assigned, a few rules need to be followed to ensure a productive and successful experience.
What comes first is to keep an open mind, because everyone’s ideas deserve consideration and each group member can make his or her own contribution.Secondly, it makes a job easier to divide the group task among all group members.Choose a role on the team that is best suited to your particular strengths.Thirdly, always work together, take turns, and encourage each other by listening, clarifying, and trusting one another.Mutual support and trust often make a great difference.
Activities like investigations are most effective when done by small groups.Here are some more suggestions for effective team performance during these activities:Make sure each group member understands and agrees to the task given to him or her, and everyone knows exactly when, why and what to do take turns doing various tasks during similar and repeated activities; be aware of where other group members are and what they are doing so as to ensure safety; be responsible for your own learning, though it is by no means unwise to compare your observations with those of other group members.
When there is research to be done, divide the topic into several areas, and this can explore the issue in a very detailed way.You are encouraged to keep records of the sources used by each person, which helps you trace back to the origin of the problems that may happen unexpectedly.A format for exchanging information(e.g., photocopies of notes, oral discussion, etc.)is also important, for a well-chosen method not only strengthens what you present but also makes yourself easily understood.When the time comes to make a decision and take a position on an issue, allow for the contributions of each member of the group.Most important of all, it is always wise to make decisions by compromise and agreement.
After you’ve completed a task with your team, make an evaluation of the team’s effectiveness-the strengths and weaknesses, opportunities and challenges.

Read these two advertisements, and then answer the questions.
When you stretch out in the sun you can do one of three things.
You can use no sun tan oil. You can use an ordinary sun tan oil. Or you can use Bergasol.
If you don't use any sun tan oil at all when you're in sun that is stronger than you're used to, you will burn surprisingly quickly.
If you use an ordinary sun tan oil you will protect your skin to a lesser or greater degree. How much depends on the“protection factor(系数)number”on the bottle.
Some of these oils block out so many of the sun's rays you can stay in the sun all day without burning--but you won't go very brown, either.
Bergasol will protect your skin like an ordinary sun tan oil. But Bergasol oil also has a tan accelerator(加速剂) which comes from the oil of the Bergamot fruit.
It speeds up the rate at which the sun activates(激活) the skin cells that produce melanin.
And it is melanin which gives the skin its brown colour.
So when you use Bergasol sun tan oil you go brown faster, and as the days pass the difference will become more and more obvious.
Unfortunately this special formulation isn't cheap to prepare. So Bergasol is rather more expensive than ordinary sun tan oil.
However the price looks more attractive as you do.
Protection
Many people imagine that“cover-up”means you don't get a tan. Nothing to show for your holiday. What a shame.
Not so. With“cover up”, you can get brown if you want to. The point of cover-up is to protect your skin from the harmful rays of the sun--the ones which, according to the experts, make your skin look older.
That's what Solex Cover-up is all about--protection for your skin. It has a Sun Protection Factor of 8, which makes it suitable for anyone.
Find 0ut how it works for you by consulting(咨询)the Solex Sun Chart. On sale wherever Solex is.
With Solex Cover-up, you can tan as slowly as you like. As gently as you like. And with much less chance of peeling.
Your tan will look better. Your skin will stay young longer. Solex Cover-up.
Gentle tan…full protection.

2.Both Bergasol and Solex serve to _____.

Bob asked me how I knew I had no mechanical skills. I explained my life 12 and told him about my 13 performance on the Army test. Bob then asked, “ 14 is it that you can solve 15 mathematical problems, but you can’t solve simple mechanical problems?”
