18、 to your mind? The idea that most of the kids have is a man wearing a white lab coat with messy hair, big glasses, and cups of colorful liquids giving off clouds of smoke. As for adults, the majority regard scientists as strange people who spend a lot of time working in a lonely lab. However, the re
19、ality is quite different.Recently Ive had a chance to take part in a scientific experience far from my lab and into Costa Rica. It has a large amount of wildlife due to its geographical placement between North and South America. It is home to more than 500,000 species, which represents nearly 4% of
20、the species worldwide!First we worked to protect wildlife at a leatherback turtle (棱皮龟) protection center. We helped the volunteers to remove rubbish from the beach to create a safe environment for turtle eggs to come out. After that we stayed at Mount Arenal where we studied seismic (地壳的) activity
21、relating to earthquakes. During our stay at Arenal, we rode over the mountainous areas and took a long walk through the rainforest. On the last day we got a professional introduction of rocket (火箭) science and learned about new rocket technology that will be used on the international space station.D
22、uring my Costa Rica experience, I know that being a scientist doesnt mean working in a lab all day and night. A scientist is the one who loves learning and getting a better understanding of the world from helping protect wildlife, learning about earthquakes or inventing rockets. I think that science

26、ent of Physics and Astronomy. Professor Strickland is one of the recipients (接受者) of the Nobel Prize in Physics 2018 with Grard Mourou, her PhD teacher at the time. They published this Nobel-winning research in 1985 when Strickland was a PhD student at the University of Rochester in New York state.
27、Together they paved the way toward the most intense laser pulses ever created.Professor Donna Strickland is only the third woman ever to have won the Nobel Prize in Physics. She and her fellow winners were honored for what the Nobel Committee called groundbreaking inventions in laser physics. Profes
28、sor Strickland found a way to use lasers as very precise drilling or cutting tools. Millions of eye operations are performed every year with these sharpest laser beams.How surprising do you think it is that youre the third woman to win this prize?Well, that is surprising, isnt it? I think thats the
29、story of Maria that people want to talk about that why should it take 60 years? There are so many women out there doing fantastic research, so why does it take so long to get recognized?Physics still has one of the largest gender (性别) gaps in science. One recent study concluded that at the current r
30、ate it would be more than two centuries until there were equal numbers of senior male and female researchers in the field.The last woman to win the Nobel Prize in Physics was German-born Maria Goeppert Mayer for her discoveries about the nuclei of atoms. Before that it was Marie Curie, who shared th
31、e 1903 prize with her husband, Pierre. This years winners hope that breaking this half century hiatus (间断) will mean the focus in the future will be on the research, rather than the gender of the researcher.8Which of the following best explains the underlined word groundbreaking in Paragraph 2?AActi

The l
35、eft side of the brain controls language and number and it analyses and reasons. 12 It controls our appreciation of music and our sense of rhythm. It is also the right side of our brain which daydreams. Leonardo da Vinci was the great painter and sculptor. He was also an architect, a scientist and an
36、 inventor! 13_ When he invented machines he used both his imaginative ability and his analytical (分析)ability.14 Albert Einstein enjoyed art, playing the violin and sailing. Indeed, Einstein said his scientific discoveries grew from his imagination rather than from analysis, reason and language. He s
37、aid that written and spoken words were not important in his thinking. The story goes that Einstein was daydreaming one summers day while sitting on a hill.

38、at the universe must curve(弯曲). 15_ He then used the left side of his brain to apply analysis, number and reason. And finally he used language to explain it. Traditional education in schools encourages us to use the left side of our brains. Language, number, analysis and reason are given more import
39、ance in our schools than imagination and daydreaming. Why dont we give more value to visual thinking? Why jump on one foot if we have two perfectly good legs!16 We need to use our imagination to think of solutions to problems and to enjoy emotional and artistic experiences. And we need to be logical
