14、are exactly the same size. The brick and the sponge will occupy the same amount of space, but they will not weigh the same. If two things are exactly the same size, but differ in weight, then they have different densities. The one with the greater weight for the same size has the greater density. Th

15、e one with lower weight for the same size has the lower density.Now apply this idea to fluids. You know that water and air expand when they are heated and therefore become less dense. If you poured a cupful of very hot water and let it cool, you would have a little less than a cupfull of cool water.

16、 If you weighed a cupful of very hot water and a cupful of cool water, the cupful of very hot water would weigh a little less.The cupful of cool water, being a little heavier than the cupful of hot water, would really have a little more water in it. Cold water is denser than hot water. Likewise, col

17、d air is denser than hot. air. The greater weigh! of !he denser material makes it fall to the bottom of the container. It pushes up the less dense material.（分数：12.00）(1).Two things are the same size but differently weight. That means_.（分数：3.00）A.the heavier one has lower densityB.the lighter one has

18、 greater densityC.they have the same densityD.they have different density(2).Another word for “fluids“ would be_.（分数：3.00）A.solidsB.gasesC.densitiesD.liquids(3).When water is heated, it_.（分数：3.00）A.expandsB.becomes cloudyC.will burnD.shrinks(4).What is the best title for this passage7（分数：3.00）A.How

19、to Heat WaterB.Is It a Solid, Liquid or Gas.?C.Density and WeightD.Cooking with Water六、Passage Two(总题数：1，分数：12.00)If we had to rely on only five senses for survival, we would be in very sad shape indeed. We wouldnt know up from down. We wouldnt know when to eat or drink. We wouldnt know what our mus

20、cles were doing or what position our limbs were in. We wouldnt know when our body was damaged because we wouldnt feel pain. We might freeze to death without even a shiver, or overheat without a drop of sweat. The five senses-touch, taste, smell, bearing and sight-respond only to stimulation from the

21、 outside world, but the inside world of our bodies must also receive and respond to important messages.Our internal senses keep us alive and enable us to use our external senses. In effect, the internal senses tell our brains how to run our bodies. Hunger or thirst register in a part of the brain ca

22、lled the hypothalamus(丘脑下部) , when a lack of food chemicals are detected in the blood.Another internal sense that controls our balance is maintained by three fluid-filled loops in the inner ear. Changes in position and gravity affect the motion of this liquid and cause changes in the brain. A sense

23、called kinesthesia(肌肉运动知觉) lets us know the relative positions of parts of our bodies. Even our breathing is caused by a sense that identifies an overabundance of carbon dioxide and a lack of oxygen in the blood.No one has been able to count the number of internal senses. The presence of delicate in

24、ternal senses shows just how marvelously complex we human beings are.（分数：12.00）(1).This passage deal mostly with the_.（分数：3.00）A.internal sensesB.sense of balanceC.five sensesD.brains function(2).Hunger is caused by _.（分数：3.00）A.too much food and water in the bodyB.a lack of oxygen in the bloodC.see

26、ect“ means_.（分数：3.00）A.in factB.it is doubtfulC.oftenD.without reason七、Passage Three(总题数：1，分数：12.00)He shouldnt have come back alive. Captain J. H. Hedley was British pilot in World War I.

Suddenly they were surrounded by a group of German fighters. Makepeace, an experienced pilot, knew he had to take the plane into a vertical div

28、e in order to slip away from Germans. Inexplicably, Hedley was caught unaware by his copilots maneuver. He was thrown sharply out of his seat and out of the plane.

29、 the plane, Hedley hung on and pulled himself back into the plane when it leveled off. Makepeace was stunned by the sight of Hedley, but he kept his composure enough to get them out of the trouble and out of Germany.

33、ill be over 6.5 bil- lion people on earth after two decades. We will have to produce four times as much food as we do now to feed all these people.

The new methods yield twenty times more tomatoes and cu-cumbers than can be grown on a farm. About sixty times as many shrimp

35、can be raised in indoors pools than ten boats can catch in the ocean in a year. Crops can grow in salty soil.

Fortunately, most educators are becoming aware of the fact that students have different interests and abilities.

40、 However, the discipline resulting from grades still exists. Grades often cut down creativity.
