A Cool Way to Keep Cool

We all know that foods will easily go bad if they get too warm. So we usually put them into our fridges to keep cool in hot weather. But can you make it without fridges?

In 1995, Abba, a teacher from Nigeria, found a cool way. His invention was called Pot-in-Pot Cooling System.

It uses two clay pots (陶罐). There is a smaller pot inside a lager one. The space between the two pots is filled with wet sand. Fruit, vegetables or drinks can be put into the smaller pot. A wet cloth covers the whole cooling system. Some foods can be kept fresh for several weeks in it.

Abba built five thousand pot-in-pot systems for the villagers in his hometown. Then people all over the country began using the invention. Soon it became popular with farmers in other African countries/

In 2000, Abba got a prize ---the Rolex Award. If you are trying to do something to improve human life, you may have the chance to get this prize.

Why is it that some people seem to learn several languages without any effort, while for others learning just one foreign language is neither enjoyable nor successful? What makes learning a new language so easy for some and so difficult or others.

We each have our own preferred way of learning as a result of our cultural and educational backgrounds and our personalities. Experts have identified different learning styles.

Visual Learners usually enjoy reading and prefer to see an image of the words they are learning. They like looking at pictures and flashcards. Auditory Learners, on the other hand, prefer to learn by listening. They enjoy conversations and talking to others. They don’t need to see words written down. One study revealed that Japanese students tend to be Visual Learners, while English-speaking American, prefer the auditory learning style.

Some people like to learn by using their hands to touch objects, while others like to move around and need frequent breaks from sitting at a desk.

There are Analytical Learners, meaning they enjoy understanding how the language works. They love studying grammar rules and like to focus on details, whereas Global Learners are more interested in communicating their ideas and are not worried about whether what they say is grammatically correct.

In spoken English, the Japanese tend to be Reflective Learners. They think carefully before they speak to ensure their message is accurate. They do not make so many mistakes but their communication is slower. European learners tend to be mote Impulsive Learners. They speak more fluently and worry about how well they are communicating rather than how many mistakes they are making.

So, to do well in a language, you should identify your style and try to find a class that will teach you the way you want to learn. For example, if you are a Reflective Learner, you may not do so well in a purely conversational class and as an Auditory Learner, you probably don’t want to do so much reading. In fact if you are an Auditory Learner, you are probably not enjoying yourself right now!

1. The passage mainly talks about ______.

A. the difficult learning styles of some people

B. the easy learning ways of, other people

C. the different learning styles of the Japanese

D. the different learning methods of all the people

2. Which of the following phrases isn’t connected with the learning style?

A. The way people are taught to learn a language.

B. The place where people are from.

C. The size of people.

D. The kind of person people are.

3. Visual Learners like to ______.

A. see things         B. touch things      C. hear things              D. do things

4. Auditory Learners like to ______.

A. hear things       B. buy things  C. destroy things          D. paint things

5. Analytical Learners ______.

A. are similar to Global Learners B. never worry about mistakes

C love to study details             D. do well in conversation

阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。

Ellen Sims is an 18-year-old college student. She has an important exam tomorrow morning. Ellen is going to study all night. Many college students, like Ellen, do this often. They think they can study all night. And they think that in the morning, they will remember everything that they studied the night before. Ellen thinks that this is a good way to study, but many doctors disagree. They say that sleep is very important for memory and brain development. Scientists in Harvard Medical School studied sleep and memory. They studied 24 people. First, they asked the people to look at the picture and remember it. At night, they put the people in two groups of 12. Group One went to sleep. Group Two did not. A few days later, the scientist showed some picture to both groups. They asked the people to find the picture they saw before. The people in Group One did well. But the people in Group Two did not well. It wasn’t easy for them to remember the picture. What happened? Scientists say that sleep helps our memory. After we learn something new, sleep helps us remember it. And when we don’t sleep, we can forget new things. Scientists say that many teenagers, like Ellen, sleep too little. They go to school and they work, too. They also spend time with their friends. They are always busy and they think that sleep doesn’t matter. But scientists say the brains of teenagers are still developing, and sleep is a very important part of the development. When teens sleep less than six hours, they can’t think clearly. That is not very helpful for a student who is taking an exam.

1. What does Ellen have tomorrow?

2. How many people were studied?

3. Why did the Group One remember the picture better?

4. What does the writer want to tell us?

Mike Myers is a teacher at Chauncey Rose High School in Terre Haute, Indiana.  Last year, he taught his students about the world’s rain forests.  They learned that rain forests are important because the plants and animals of the rain forest give us food, wood, and medicine.

Destruction of the world’s rain forests is a serious problem.  Unluckily, rain forests are disappearing at a rate of 80 acres per minute!  As part of a class project, Myers’ students bought three acres of rain forest in Central America.  They paid $25 per acre.  The students hope that the land they bought will be protected and not destroyed. The students became so interested in rain forests that they decided to get a closer look at a real rain forest.

So last June, Myers and four of his students took a boat ride down a river.  They saw alligators and crocodiles.  In the middle of the week, a guide took Myers and his students into the rain forest.  “The monkeys were not happy that we were in their forest.  They broke small branches off the trees and threw them at e us,” one of the students said, “It was a great learning experience for all of us,” said Myers.

Each student chose something specific about Costa Rica to study involving the plants, animals, food, and culture.  During the last few days the group had time to do fun activities.  They went whitewater rafting and horseback riding, and visited Costa Rica’s active volcano.

Myers hopes to make the trip every year with a different group of kids.

In today’s world of modern science and medicine, a more traditional treatment is once again becoming popular-animal friendship.

It is now well-known that people with problems such as heart disease or cancer live longer and get better more quickly if they have pets. Keeping pets lowers blood pressure and makes people less worried. Animals are increasingly important in treating older people who have memory loss and other brain problems. These people often feel nervous and upset. Activities with animals help them improve their physical condition and also give them joy, entertainment and loving friendship.

Here is a case that shows the benefits of animals. John was a six-year-old mute. He had no physical problems. He just refused to talk. His older cousin, Ned, had a parrot called Sally, and John used to visit it. When he arrived, Net used to say, “Hi, John!” We all know parrots copy what they hear. After a few visits, Sally began saying “Hi, John!” when John came into the room. Then, one day, John turned to the parrot and replied “Hi, Sally!” Staying with the parrot encouraged John to begin talking.

Another use of animal helpers is in schools. In some cases, animals are used to help children with physical or personal problems. In other cases, they are used to teach children to get on and share with others, and even to teach them about animals.

If you want to know more about animal helper programmes, you can get in touch with organizations like Riding for the Disabled or do a search under “animal therapy” on the Internet. You don’t have to be an animal trainer or a doctor to join in.

1 Which is NOT mentioned as an illness that animals can help with?
