Although we were all brought up in the same way, my brothers and sisters soom abandoned their pressed flowers
23、and insects. Unlike them, I had no ear for music and languages. I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic. Before World War I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary. I have only the dim memory of the house we lived in, of my room and my toys. Nor do I recall clearly the large f
24、amily of grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered next door. But I do have a clear memory of the dogs, the farm animals, the local birds, and above all, the insects. I am a naturalists, not a scientist. I have a strong love of the natural world and my enthusiasm led me into varied invest
25、igations. I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil while reading about other peoples observations and discoveries. Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind. Suddenly you fancy you see the answer to the riddle, becouse it all s
26、eems to fit together. This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books, which some might honor with the title of scientific research. But curiosity, a keen eye, a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist: one of the outstanding and essential qualities re
27、quired is self-discipline, a quality I lack. A scientist requires not only self-discipline, but hard training, determination and a goal. A scientist, up to a certain point, can be made.

C Members of an elephant family may be out of sight but they are always in the minds of the herds matriarchs(象群的女家长), reseachers have found. T
39、ests have found that female elephants are able to remember the whereabouts(所在之处) of at least 17 family members at the same time and perhaps as many as 30. They watch which of their relations are ahead of them when the herd searches for food, which of them are lagging behind and which are travelling
40、in separate groups.Professor Richard Byrne, of the University of St Andrews, said that the elephants performed good memories by being able to recall where each of their relatives was in a constantly changing environment. “Its hard enough for us to watch two or three children in a busy shopping centr
41、e. Imagine trying to do it with 30 or so.” he said.Researches tested the ability of African elephants to remember where each family member had gone. Elephants have poor eyesight but an excellent sense of smell and are able to identify one another from traces of urine(尿) on the ground.To test the mem
42、bers of the elephants, samples of urine soaked earth were collected by researches and placed in positions where a herd was about to pass. Observations showed that the animals exhibited surprise when they could detect the odour (气味) of a family member they knew was behind them. Interest was shown whe
43、n the urine was that of a close relative travelling in the same group or in a separate herd, but samples left by unknown elephants were ignored.The researchers, who reported their findings in the journal Biology Letters, concluded, “It seems that female elephants have a general interest in monitorin

52、ities. However, with the fast development of the countrys auto industry, the usage of public transportation in big cities is about 6 percent lower than it was several years ago. To encourage people to take more advantage of public transport, the city government is earmarking(拨款)110 billion yuan to i

58、temperature. This helps us decide what to wear. 71 We want our ood to be a certain coldness in the refrigerator.We want it a certain hotness in the oven.If we dont feel well, we use a thermometer to see if we have a fever.We keep our rooms a certain warmth in the winter and a certain coolness in the
59、 summer. Not all the thermometers use the same system to measure temperature.We use a system called the Fahrenheit scale.But most other countries use the Centigrade scale.Both systems use the freezing and boiling points of water as their guide.72 The most common kind of thermometer is made with merc
60、ury(水银)inside a clear glass tube. As mercury(or any other liquid)becomes hot,it expands.As it gets colder, it contracts(收缩).That is why on hot days the mercury line is high in the glass tube. 73 First.Take a clear glass juice bottle that has a cap;fill the bottle with coloured water.Tap a hole in th
61、e center of the cap using a hammer and thick nail.Put the cap on the jar.Then stick a plastic straw(吸管)through the nail hole. 74 Finally. Place a white card on the outside of the bottle and behind the straw.Now you can see the water lever easily. 75 As the temperature goes down,the water will contra
62、ct,and the lever in the straw will come down.Perhaps you will want to keep a record of the water lever in the straw each morning for a week.A. We use and depend on thermometers to measure the temperature of many other things in our daily lives.B. Thermometers measure temperature,by using materials t
63、har change in the same way when they are heated or cooled.C. Now that you know this rule you can make a thermometer of your own that will work.D. The water will rise in the straw.As the temperature of the air goes up,the water will expand and rise even higher.E. They label these in different ways.On
64、 the Fahrenheit scale water freezes at 32 degrees and boils at 212degrees.On the Celsius scale water freezes at 0 degrees and boils at 100degreesF. Take wax(you may use an old candle if you have one) and melt some of it right where the straw is struck into the cap to seal(把.粘住)them together.G. Peopl
