A liquid can be kept in an open container and (2)_it to the level of a free surface. A gas forms no free surface b
18、ut (3)_to diffuse throughout the space available; it must (4)_be kept in a closed container, as (5)_a planets atmosphere. The distinction was a prominent feature of early theories (6)_ the phases of matter. In the nineteenth century, for example, one theory maintained that a liquid could be dissolve
19、d in a vapor without losing its identity, and another theory held that the two phases are (7)_different kinds of molecules(分子). The theories now prevailing (8)_a quite different approach by emphasizing what liquids and gases have in common. They are both forms of matter that have no permanent struct
20、ure, and they both flow easily. They are fluids. The (9)_similarity of liquids and gases becomes clearly apparent when the temperature and pressure are raised somewhat. (10)_a closed container partially filled with a liquid is heated. The liquid expands, or (11)_, becomes less dense; some of it evap
21、orates. (12)_, the vapor above the liquid surface becomes denser as the evaporated molecules are added to it. The combination of temperature and pressure (13)_the densities become equal is (14)_ the critical point. Above the critical point the liquid and the gas can no longer be (15)_; there is a si

No school I have taught
39、in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, vastly different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority it must be given over general language development and writing ability. The problem is, how to encourage a child to express himself freel
40、y and confidently in writing without holding him back with the complexities of spelling. If spelling becomes the only focal point of his teachers interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to play safe. He will tend to write only words within his spelling range, choosing to avoid adventurous la
41、nguage. Thats why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability. I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience: This work is terrible! There are far too many spelling errors and
42、 your writing is illegible. It may have been a sharp criticism of the pupils technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had omitted to read the essay, which contained some beautiful expressions of the childs deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw at
43、tention to the errors, but if his priorities had centered on the childs ideas, an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more motivation to seek improvement. （分数：0.99）(1).Teachers are different in their opinions about_.（分数：0.33）A.the difficulties in teachin
