Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

    The human body can tolerate only a small range of temperature, especially when the person is engaged in vigorous activity. Heat usually occur when large amounts of water and/or salt are lost through oversweating following exhausting exercise. When the body becomes overheated and cannot this overheatedness, heat exhaustion and heat stroke are possible.

    Heat exhaustion is generally by sweaty skin, tiredness, sickness, dizziness, plentiful sweating, and sometimes fainting, resulting from a(n) intake of water and the loss of fluids.  First aid treatment for this condition includes having the victim lie down, the feet 8 to 12 inches, applying cool, wet cloths to the skin, and giving the victim sips of salt water (1 teaspoon per glass, half a glass every 15 minutes) over a 1-hour period.

    Heat stroke is much more serious; it is a(n) life-threatening situation. The characteristics of heat stroke are a high body temperature (which may reach 106° F or more); a rapid pulse; hot, dry skin; and a blocked sweating . Victims of this condition may be unconscious, and first-aid measures should be at quickly cooling the body. The victim should be placed in a tub of cold water or sponged with cool water until his or her temperature is sufficiently lowered. Fans or air conditioners will also help with the cooling . Care should be taken, however, not to over-chill the victim once the temperature is below 102° F.

A. inadequate    B. repeatedly    C. process    D. achieve    E. directed    F. reactions   G. raising    H. eliminate    I. characterized    J. immediate    K. mechanism

    There is a difference between science and technology. Science is a method of answering theoretical questions; technology is a method of solving {#blank#}1{#/blank#} problems. Science has to do with discovering the facts and relationships {#blank#}2{#/blank#} in the observable natural world and with building up theories that serve to organize these facts and relationships; technology has to do with tools, techniques, and methods for carrying out the {#blank#}3{#/blank#} of science.

    Another difference between science and technology has to do with the {#blank#}4{#/blank#} in each.

    Progress in science does not consider the human factor. Scientists make a study of the universe, try to explain the rules of nature and strive to find out the truth. They can {#blank#}5{#/blank#} pay attention to their own or other people's likes or dislikes or to popular ideas about the fitness of things. What scientists discover may shock or anger people—as did Darwin's theory of evolution. But even a(n) {#blank#}6{#/blank#} truth is more than likely to be useful; besides, we have the choice of refusing to believe it! But hardly so with technology; we do not have the choice of refusing to hear the noises produced by an airplane flying overhead; we do not have the choice of refusing to breathe {#blank#}7{#/blank#}air; and we do not have the choice of living in a non-atomic age. Unlike science, progress in technology must be {#blank#}8{#/blank#} in terms of the human factor. Technology must be our slave and not the {#blank#}9{#/blank#}. The purpose of technology is to serve people in general, not merely some people; and future generation, not merely those who presently wish to gain advantage for themselves. Technology must be {#blank#}10{#/blank#} if it is to lead to a better world.

Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in each blank with a proper word given in the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one more word than you need.

A. emphasizes  B. principle  C. enormous  D. helping  E. energized F. active  G. increased  H. absorbing  I. benefits  J. analyzed  K. temperate

Emphasizing social play in kindergarten improves academics

    Emphasizing social play and students helping one another in kindergarten improves academic outcomes, self-control and attention regulation, finds new UBC research. The study, published in the journal PLoS One, found this approach to kindergarten curriculum also {#blank#}1{#/blank#} children's joy in learning and teachers' enjoyment of teaching.

    "Before children have the ability to sit for long periods {#blank#}2{#/blank#} information, they need to be allowed to be {#blank#}3{#/blank#} and be encouraged to learn by doing," said Dr. Adele Diamond, the study's lead author. "Indeed, people of all ages learn better by doing than by being told."

    Through a controlled experiment, Diamond and her colleagues {#blank#}4{#/blank#} the effectiveness of a curriculum called Tools of the Mind (Tools). The curriculum was introduced to willing kindergarten teachers and 351 children with different backgrounds in 18 public schools.

    Tools was developed in 1993 by two American researchers. Its basic {#blank#}5{#/blank#} is that social-emotional development and improving self-control is as important as teaching academic skills and content. The Tools {#blank#}6{#/blank#} the role of social play in developing skills such as self-control, selective attention and planning. "Skills like self-control and selective attention are necessary for learning. They are often more strongly associated with school readiness (入学准备) than intelligence quotient (IQ)," said Diamond. "This experiment is the first to show {#blank#}7{#/blank#} of a curriculum emphasizing social play."

    Teachers reported more {#blank#}8{#/blank#} behavior and greater sense of community in Tools classes. Late in the school year, Tools teachers reported they still felt {#blank#}9{#/blank#} and excited about teaching, while teachers in the control group were exhausted. "I have enjoyed seeing the {#blank#}10{#/blank#} progress my students have made in writing and reading." said a Tools teacher in Vancouver. "I have also enjoyed seeing the students get so excited about coming to school and learning. They loved all the activities so much that many students didn't want to miss school, even if they were sick."
