   Do you like to learn about what is in the world around you?Do you often notice things that your friends don't notice?When you become interested in something,do you ask people about it and read books about it?Do you sometimes do experiments to find answers?If so,then you think in much the same way that a scientist thinks.

In school and at home no doubt you will read about scientific discoveries. Are there any good ways to help you read science then?Let's consider each of the four rules that you should follow.

1. KEEP YOUR MIND ON WHAT YOU ARE READING. Surely no one can successfully read a science article or a science textbook while thinking of other things. Many a car has run through a stop light because a careless driver was thinking of something besides his driving. The same thing is true of reading. If you think of nothing else while you are reading,you will become a better reader.

2. KNOW WHY YOU READ. The chapter titles and subtitles in science articles are usually worded in such a way that they attract your curiosity(好奇心)and make you want to read. They often tell you what you are going to read about and why you should read. The questions found at the beginning of the chapters guide you toward the information you want. Knowing why you read will help you become a better reader in science.

3. KNOW THE MEANING AND THE PRONUNCIATION OF EVERY WORD. Through the context,word structure rules and the glossary(词汇表)in your science book,you can discover the meaning and the pronunciation of most words in the articles. If a word is not in the glossary,use the dictionary.

4. FIT YOUR SPEED TO YOUR NEED. To get all the important information from your science book,you must read by degrees and carefully. Directions for experiments demand especially careful reading. If you misread them,the experiment may fail and you may reach wrong conclusions.

【小题1】The first paragraph mentions all the following fine qualities of a scientist except ________.
A.curiosityB.self-confidence
C.powerful observationD.an eager desire for knowledge
【小题2】You can know a word's meaning through the use of the following except _______.

   Living with a roommate can be a great experience as many roommates become lifelong friends. However ,roommates living together under the same roof for a long time unavoidably have conflicts(冲突) with each other. 【小题1】To prevent this from happening to you,each conflict should be handled in a productive,healthy way.

1.Set a time for a discussion

Once conflicts occur, you need to set up a time to discuss the conflict. 【小题2】 They may think about any problems they want to discuss. It also allows for a better discussion as both roommates will most likely enter the discussion fairly calm.

2.Make rules for a discussion

Before discussing the actual conflicts, set up some rules to guide the discussion.

Making rules beforehand can prevent a screaming match from breaking out. 【小题3】

3.Point out good things about roommates

You can use your discussion to point out to your roommates their great advantages and specific things you like about them. While this won't solve the conflict, it can help your roommates be more understanding of your point of view and more willing to compromise(妥协).

【小题4】

Once dissatisfaction has been said by both parties you should develop a roommate agreement that is written down. This agreement should discuss what the rules are as well as what results exist for breaking them. For example,roommates having a conflict about overnight guests may compromise to allow overnight guests only on weekends or guests on weekdays leaving by 11 p. m. 【小题5】 .
