26、Kids and science seem to be made for each other!
The basic science is a combination of thought and experiment called the scientific method. It’s where you start with an idea, create a way to prove or disprove your idea, and show what you learned based on facts. Learning to follow this process helps you think logically (逻辑地) and carefully. These important thinking skills can be used in many areas of study. To give a child practice with these thinking skills is like giving vitamins (维生素) to a developing mind.
One of the greatest things we can teach our children is to love learning. Learning science is a great way to do so. Children are easy to be interested in science. Because much of science is hands-on, it attracts most children. Nothing makes a child sit up and take notice like the “WOW!” of a great science showing.
Science opens doors to many subjects at school. Building love for science can be helpful in other areas of study. For example, one cannot love science for very long without becoming good at its language-math! So science encourages children to study math. An interest in science is an interest in how things were once understood compared to how they are understood now. Thus studying science lends itself easily to studying history. And after you do an experiment, you need to write a lab report. Therefore, writing becomes an important part of science.
Science is the basic thing for much of our life. The science of farming shows how our food is produced; biomedical science keeps us healthy; even our beds these days are designed according to scientific facts. We almost eat, sleep and breathe with the help of science! When we prepare the next generation (一代) of voters, creators and policy makers, it is important to make sure they are not only comfortable but also good at science.

【2】According to Paragraph 2, what does learning the scientific method mean to kids?

【3】If a child works hard at science at school, he/she _______________.
A.usually has no time for other subjects.

C.is usually bad at such subjects like history.
D.usually loses interest in other activities.
【4】Which of the following statements would the author agree with?
A.Science is too difficult for children.
B.Children usually consider science boring.

27、The average American family will spend somewhere around $637 on back-to-school supplies for each elementary school child this year and twice that for a high school student. Add to that the fact that both children and parents feel anxious about the transition (过渡) of going back to school at the end of summer. For this, Jermaine Smith of Cleveland and four other barbers decided to cut hair for about 40 kids and teens for free last Saturday.
In fact, Smith has been giving back to the community in other ways long before this weekend. He cuts hair by day, but in the evenings, after bringing his daughter home from school, he goes to work as a police officer.
“A lot of parents bring their kids to me for haircuts because I’m a police officer. They trust me because they think that I teach kids to do the right things in the barber shop. I always tell young men that they always get to stay neat and attractive, and people tend to treat them with respect,” Smith says. “When you get your hair cut, you look good and feel good.”
Maybe a service that would only cost $15 regularly seems like just a drop in the bucket, but child and teen psychologist Dr. Barbara Greenberg sees this as more than just a one-time free service. Other free haircut and school supply events have appeared unexpectedly all across the country this month, as organizers have recognized how much parents can use this extra help.
Greenberg says, “One of the ways to make a transition easier is to make it fun and introduce something new or unusual, so the whole idea of getting a haircut makes kids feel special and important.” The haircuts were just part of the Start School on the Right Foot event, which also handed out about 50 backpacks full of school supplies.
【1】Why did Jermaine Smith and other barbers cut hair for kids?
A.To improve the community service.
B.To prepare children for the competition.
C.To help children and parents reduce anxiety.
D.To provide back-to-school supplies for children.
【2】Which of the following can best describe Jermaine Smith?
A.Honest and generous.
B.Creative and friendly.
C.Grateful and thoughtful.
D.Reliable and responsible.
【3】What does Jermaine Smith want young people to do?
A.Form a healthy lifestyle.
B.Treat people with respect.
C.Get along well with others.
D.Leave a good impression on people.
【4】What is Dr. Barbara Greenberg glad to see?
A.More parents are willing to work together.
B.More people take action to help kids in school.
C.People amuse the little kids in school regularly.
D.People try to make kids feel special and important.
