When you are near a lake or an ocean, you feel cool. Why? The sun makes the earth hot, but it can not make the water hot. Though the air over the earth becomes hot, the air over the water stays cool. The hot air over the earth goes up, then the cool air over the water moves in and takes the place of the hot air. When you are near a lake or an ocean, you feel the cool air when it moves in. You feel the wind and the wind makes you cool.Of course, scientists cannot answer all of our questions. If we ask Why is the ocean full of salt? scientists will say that the salt comes from rocks. When a rock gets very hot or very cool, it cracks (崩裂) , and rain falls into the cracks. The rain then carries the salt into the earth and the rivers. The rivers carry the salt into the ocean. But then we ask What happens to the salt in the ocean? The ocean does not get saltier every year. scientists are not sure about the answer to the question.We know a lot about our world. But there are still many answers that we do not have, and we are curious(好奇的).（1）In the first paragraph, the underlined word it refers to .A . The hot air over the waterB . The cool air over the earthC . The hot air over the earthD . The cool air over the water（2）Now scientists know .A . What makes people feel cool near a lake or an ocean in summerB . Everything about the oceanC . What happens to the salt in the oceanD . Why the ocean does not get more saltier（3）A rock crack when .A . rain fallsB . it gets very hotC . it gets very coldD .

She found that the desks were no longer in rows, but pushed together to make eight bigger desks. She was too excited about it for the first two days and she couldnt listen to the teachers carefully. But soon she and her classmates got used to this new classroom arrangement (安排). “Now our class is quieter,” said Wu. “Whats more, we can come up with our own ideas and learn more through discussion. Its a better way to study.”Li Yu liked it, too. He said, “Group members first discuss, and then show ourselves in front of the whole class. It makes us believe in ourselves.” It was part of a reform (改革) at Lis school. The school made this reform because they wanted to provide (提供) students with easier ways to study and more chances to discuss. “Our school hopes it can improve students abilities(能力) to study by themselves and work in groups,” said Zhang Ming, an English teacher.However, the reform has demanded (要求) more from teachers. Now they have only 15 minutes to give the lesson which should be taught in 45 minutes before. It is difficult to teach in such a short time.
