【题目】Have you ever rubbed your hands together when they get cold? Why do we do that? We do that for friction.Friction happens when two things that aren't very smooth rub together to make heat energy.The faster you rub two things together,the more friction (and heat) you can make. Let's discover friction!
WHAT YOU'LL NEED:
●A piece of soap ●Water ●Your hands
WHAT TO DO:
1.Make sure your hands are dry.
2.Rub your hands together until you feel the heat of your hands.
3.Now,use a piece of soap and water to get your hands very slippery (滑的).
4.Try to make friction happen while your hands are slippery.
5.Please write down what has happened.
LET'S TALK!
Friction is a kind of energy that happens when two things rub together. When friction happens, it makes heat! When your hands are slippery, they won't make much friction and your hands won't get so hot.
DID YOU KNOW?
1.Friction happens when you stop your fast running bike.
2.Ancient people made fires by rubbing two pieces of wood together. Friction happened though they didn't know it.
__________
Friction is everywhere. Have you ever noticed situations where friction is happening? If not, ask your parents to take you out in a car. If it is not too hot, touch the tires (轮胎) of the car before and after a short drive to see how much warmer they get from friction.

【题目】In modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition. Some value it highly, for they believe that it is helpful for social progress and richness, others say that competition is bad; and that it sets one person against another and leads to unfriendly relationship between people.
I have taught many children who held the belief(看法) that their self – worth came from how well they performed at tennis and other skills. For them, performing well and winning are often life-and-death matters. Sadly, they forget to develop many other human qualities.
However, while some seem to wish to succeed very much, others think quite the opposite. They, especially young people have suffered from competitive stress from their parents or society. Teaching these young people, I often find that they choose to fail. They seem to choose failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse: “I may have lost, but it doesn’t matter because I really didn’t try.” In fact, they are worried that if they had really tried and lost, that would mean they were worth nothing.
Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove their self – worth. Both are based on the mistaken belief that one’s self – worth come from how well one performs in comparison(比较) with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. I suggest that they can discover a new meaning in competition only when such worries and fear begin to disappear.
