It is important to make your child interested in science from an early age. Most young children ask a lot of questions and you shoul
18、d give careful scientific answers. Dont only give facts, but try to give explanations as well.2. Science is not just knowledge; it is a way of thinking, a method of finding out about the world. We see something. We try to explain it, and we test our idea by setting up an experiment. One day you come
19、 home and find the plant on the table has fallen over. You think it might be the wind from the open window or the cat, so you close the window, but leave the cat in and see what happens (you can also try leaving the window open and shutting the cat out). Of course, you remember there may be a third
20、explanation.3. Ask your child to get a piece of string, some salt, a glass of water and an ice cube (冰块). Tell her to put the ice in the water, and then put one end of the string on the ice, leaving the other end over the side of the glass. Put a little salt on the ice. Wait a minute, and then pull
21、the string; it should be attached to the ice. Ask the child: “what has happened?“4. Probably she wont know. Ask her whether fresh water or salt water freezes into ice first. If you live near the sea and have a cold winter, she should know fresh water freezes first as she will have seen that happen.
22、Show her how to test the idea by half-filling two paper cups with water, adding salt to one. Then put them in the icebox and check every three minutes. Write the results in a table. The conclusion will be that salt changes the behaviour of water. Thinking about the string, we see the salt turned som
23、e of the ice into water. Then the salt went away into the water and the ice froze again leaving the string attached.5. Then you can ask, “Will water with salt boil at the same temperature as water without salt?“ She can think, tell you her idea and (taking care because of the heat) you can test it i

Wit
27、hout such problems, animals in zoos should live to a ripe old age.But matter may not be true for the largest land animals on Earth. Scientists have known that elephants in zoos often suffer from poor health. They develop diseases, joint problems and behavior changes. Sometimes, they even become infe
28、rtile or unable to have babies.To learn more about how captivity affects elephants, a team of international scientists compared the life spans of female elephants born in zoos with female elephants living outdoors in their native lands. Zoos keep detailed records of all the animals in their care, do
29、cumenting factors such as birth dates, illnesses, weight and death. These records made it possible for the researchers to analyze 40 years of data on 800 African and Asian elephants in zoos across Europe. The scientists compared the life spans of the zoo born elephants with the life spans of thousan
30、ds of female wild elephants in Africa and Asian elephants that work in logging camps, over approximately the same time period.The team found that female African elephants born in zoos lived an average of 16.9 years. Their wild counterparts who died of natural causes lived an average of 56 years-more
31、 than three times as long. Female Asian elephants followed a similar pattern. In zoos, they lived 18.9 years, while those in the logging camps lived 41.7 years.Scientists dont yet know why wild elephants seem to fare so much better than their zoo-raised counterparts. Georgia Mason, a biologist at th
32、e University of Guelph in Canada who led the study, thinks stress and obesity may be to blame. Zoo elephants dont get the same kind of exercise they would in the wild, and most are very fat. Elephant social lives are also much different in zoos than in the wild, where they live in large herds and fa
33、mily groups.Another finding from the study showed that Asian elephants born in zoos were more likely to die earlier than Asian elephants captured in the wild and brought to zoos. Mason suggests stress in the mothers in zoos might cause them to have babies that are less likely to survive.The study ra
34、ises some questions about acquiring more elephants to keep in zoos. While some threatened and endangered species living in zoos reproduce successfully and maintain healthy populations, which doesnt appear to be the case with elephants.“ Currently, zoos alert consumers of elephants, not net producers
