the wavesbtheres more to learning math than paying attention in class, according to recent research. it shows that kids math performance may be better for those with a natural gift for sensing number.studies in the past looked at how sensing numbers affected performance, but researchers didnt know whether the natural ability to sense numbers limited math skills. scientists performed the following experiment to judge peoples ability to sense numbers. for example, showing a number of dots for a very short time - some blue, others red - and asking someone to determine which group of dots was more is a common way to measure peoples ability to sense numbers.the dots appear and disappear so quickly that it becomes impossible to count, so the numbers have to be sensed instead. also called the approximate number system (ans) (略估数字系统), this ability has been studied in adults, children, infants and even non-human animals. in the experiment, researchers studied 174 children between 3 and 5 years of age to judge their ans with computer tests. then they judged childrens math and verbal(口头的) skills through a series of tests and asking parents to list common words in their childrens vocabulary.allowing for age, vocabulary size and speed of taking the test, the group still found better ans scores to be associated with childrens early math abilities. in the past it was thought to be the result of different teaching styles, but this relationship seems to already exist before kids start formal math education in school.however, the authors of the paper admit they cannot use ans to predict math ability. they said that they could not control other aspects of learning, which may also have an effect.61. what does the text mainly tell us? a. how children can get better math results. b. what the approximate number system is. c. children with a gift for sensing numbers may do better in math. d. how the ability of sensing numbers affects childrens verbal skills.62. how did children decide which group had more dots? a. by sensing b. by counting c. by researching d. by calculating.63. which of the following statements about the experiment is not true? a. children were between 3 and 5 years of age. b. childrens parents were also tested by researchers. c. researchers used computers to judge childrens ans. d. researchers also tested the verbal skills of children.64. which of the following doesnt have to be considered in the experiment? a. how much vocabulary the children get. b. how fast the children take the test. c. how old the children are. d. how tall the children are.65. the underlined word “predict” in the last paragraph can best be replaced by _. a. lose b. forecast c. show d. improvecitem 1: jk rowling, the harry potter author, has signed a publishing deal with little brown, to release her first ever novel for adults. the deal means that rowlings long-standing relationship with bloomsbury, the london-based publisher that launched the harry potter books, has come to an end, at least in terms of new works by the author. rowling, who is worth an estimated 530 million, said that the new novel will be nothing like the harry potter

seconds. last saturday, liu won the mens 60m hurdle final in 7.41 seconds at the birmingham indoor tournament, setting a new asian record. he said wednesday that he hoped to have an even better

but what is a whale to do? natural noise from waves, wind, rain and even earthquakes is common in oceans. unfortunately, man-made noise from oil and gas drilling, sonar, and ships is also present. low frequency noise has doubled off the california coast every decade since the nineteen sixties. the main reasons are shipspropellers(螺旋桨). they not only generate continuous low frequency sound, somepropellers cavitate(形成气穴), which means they create air bubbles that collapse, creating loud popping sounds. whales use low frequency calls to communicate across thousands of miles of ocean. they are threatened by noise pollution because it can prevent them from contacting each other and from locating their foods. endangeredhumpbackand right whales, which use fibrous baleen to strain food from the water, are the most at risk.scientists studying right whales off canadas east coast have discovered that whales are sending louder calls through the water to make themselves heard. because they invest more energy in making calls, they have less energy available for finding food and mating. other scientists measuring whale calls against background noise pollution have discovered that right whales have lost about eighty percent of their normal communication area. this could seriously affect survival of this already threate
