It is such an important proj

7、ect that I cant wait to express my ideas on how to promote it.First, we should 3 a no-car day every week in our school.

A graph is a kind of picture that shows amounts, or numbers, at a glance. A graph can show the same information that is in the text,but it helps you “picture the informatio

21、n and makes it easier to understand and quicker to read. A circle graph, also called a pie graph, is divided into slices. It shows how the parts fit into the whole. Here are some suggestions on how to read it.Step 1 Read the title to find out what the graph is about. The circle graph below shows the

22、 population of Washington, DCStep 2 Look at the slices. This graph has seven “slices. Each shows one group of people. You can see how each part compares to the whole-how each group compares to the total population.Step 3 Use the label (標簽) to find out what is being compared. The labels on the graph

23、name the group of people who live in Washington, DCA line connects the correct part of the graph. Step 4 Read the introduction to the graph.

26、s(建筑師) have long had the feeling that the places we live in can affect our thoughts, feelings and behaviors. But now scientists are giving this feeling an empirical basis(實證依據). They are discovering how to design spaces that develop creativity, keep people focused, and lead to relaxation. Researches

27、 show that the physical environment can influence creativity. In 2007, Joan Meyers-Levy at the University of Minnesota, reported that the height of a rooms ceiling affects how people think. Her research suggests that higher ceilings encourage people to think more freely, which may lead them to make

28、more abstract connections. Low ceilings, on the other hand, may inspire a more detailed outlook. In addition to ceiling height, the view afforded by a building may influence the owners ability to concentrate. Nancy Wells and her colleagues at Cornell University found in their study that kids who exp

29、erienced the greatest increase in greenness as a result of a family move made the most gains on a standard test of attention. Using nature to improve focus of attention ought to pay off academically(學術地), and it seems to, according to a study led by CKenneth Tanner, head of the School Design & Plann

30、ing Laboratory at the University of Georgia. Tanner and his team found that students in classrooms with unblocked views of at least 50 feet outside the window had higher scores on tests of vocabulary, language arts and maths than did students whose classrooms mainly overlooked roads and parking lots

31、. Recent study on room lighting design suggests that dim light helps people to loosen up. If that is true generally, keeping the light low during dinner or at parties could increase relaxation. Researchers of Harvard Medical School also discovered that furniture with rounded edges could help visitor

32、s relax. So far scientists have focused mainly on public buildings. “We have a very limited number of studies, so were almost looking at the problem through a straw(吸管),” architect David Allison says. “How do you take answers to very specific questions and make broad, generalized use of them? Thats

33、what were all struggling with.”1What does Joan Meyers-Levy focus on in her research?AThe height of the ceiling.BThe freedom of people.CThe outlook of environment.DThe shape of the furniture.2What can we infer from the fourth paragraph?AThe classroom with roads around can be filled with more students

34、.BThe students in large classrooms can pay more attention on maths.CThe views outside the window may affect the students grades.DThe researchers in the University of Georgia may get higher scores.3What can we learn from the passage?ATest standards may encourage people to search more.BStudents in a b

35、right classroom may feel more relaxed.CChildren in greenness may improve their grades quickly.DRoom designs may influence peoples work and feelings.D16、Cold weather, central heating, and falling leaves-all these things mean that flu season has arrived.

43、ome red romaine lettuce(生菜). They became the first humans to eat food that was grown entirely in space.The lettuce was planted on the ISS in a small greenhouse called “Veggie”, which uses LED lights to help plants grow in space.First, astronauts cleaned the lettuce with special sanitizing wipes and

44、then ate it with some salad dressing.“It was one small bite for man, one giant leap for our journey to Mars,” one astronaut Scott Kelly later posted on social media.Space vegetables are part of the NASA experiment called “Veg-01”, a study on how plants grow away from the effects of Earths gravity. I

46、tronauts alive, NASA said.“Veg-01” started in May 2014. The first batch of vegetable took 33 days to grow in space before they were taken back to Earth for a safety check.After making sure it was safe to eat, astronauts planted a second batch on July 8. They let the plant grow for another 33 days an
