看新闻，速激记单词第十节six weird stones 六奇石 a puzzle from a multicultural quiz: how come the dinosaurs became extinct?在多种文化的问答比赛中有这样一道难题：为什么恐龙会灭绝？there was the big bang theory which was not related to religion. approximately 0.14 billion years ago, the earth was wealthy in natural resources. dinosaurs with other reptiles, amphibians, shellfish, lived on the earth. dinosaurs were not mammals, because they laid eggs. some of them who ate plants only were gentle. 这里有一个与宗教无关的宇宙大爆炸学说。大约2.4亿年前，地球的自然资源很丰富，恐龙和其他爬行动物、两栖动物、水生有壳动物就生活在地球上。恐龙是下蛋的动物，所以不是哺乳动物。一些只以植物为食的恐龙很温和。 unluckily, the comets or the meteors in solar system crashed violently into the earth. in turn, a global disaster happened. nothing could prevent some terrified animals and some plant life from becoming extinct as the natural sources were almost exhausted.很不幸，太阳系的慧星或陨星猛烈地撞入地球。接着，全球性的灾难发生了。因为自然资源几乎耗尽，所以有些惊恐的动物和一些植物难逃厄运。 now that astronomers, physicists, geologists and biologists believes that dinosaurs existed on the earth, they have been looking for fossils to confirm their existence.既然天文学家、物理学家、地质学家和生物学家都相信恐龙曾在地球生活过，他们一直在找证明它们存在的化石。 luckily, chongqing municipality geology exploration bureau had a chance to see and protect six dinosaurs stones which were found by xie xiuming and his wife within five months. while they were cutting wood near jinzhong village of hechuan district, they found six weird stones. after the experts measured and examined the stones, they knew they were the fossilized hind legs of a dinosaur, rather than six weird stones.很幸运，重庆市地勘局看到和保护六块恐龙化石，这些化石是谢秀明和他的妻子在五个月内陆续发现的。当他们在合川区金钟村附近砍柴时发现了这六块奇怪的石头。由专家测量并鉴定了它们后，他们才知道这六块不是什么奇石，而是恐龙的后肢化石。 what measures do you have to protect the life on the earth from dying out in the future?在未来你有什么措施去拯救地球？six weird stones也是带有科普色彩。其实，只要你学过初中的地理、物理、化学等科目，知道一些最基本的科学常识，科普作文并不难写。必修三 unit four的单词和短语：astronomy n. 天文学 astronomer n. 天文学家solar adj. 太阳的；日光的 system n. 系统；体系；制度solar system 太阳系religion n. 宗教；宗教信仰theory n. 学说；理论big bang 宇宙大爆炸；创世大爆炸billion pron. & n. & adj. 万亿；十亿globe n. 球体；地球仪；地球 global adj. 全球性的；全世界的violent adj. 猛烈的；激烈的；强暴的shellfish n. 水生有壳动物 amphibian n. 两栖动物 reptile n. 爬行动物；爬虫lay eggs 下蛋dinosaur n. 恐龙exist vi. 存在；生存mammal n. 哺乳动物in ones turn 轮到某人；接着prevent . from 阻止；制止puzzle n. 谜；难题 vt. & vi. （使）迷惑；（使）为难biology n. 生物学biologist n. 生物学家gentle adj. 温和的；文雅的geologist n. 地质学家physicist n. 物理学家extinct adj. 灭绝的；绝种的comet n. 慧星crash vi. & vt. 碰撞；坠落now that 既然exhaust vt. 用尽；耗尽；使精疲力尽必修三 unit five的单词和短语：multicultural adj. 多种文化的quiz n. 测验；问答比赛rather than 与其；不愿measure vi. & vt. 测量；衡量；判定 n. 计量制；计量单位；措施within prep. 在之内confirm vt. 证实；证明；批准wealthy adj. 富有的approximately adv. 接近；大约terrify vt. 使恐怖；恐吓 terrified adj. 恐惧的；受惊吓的通过看新闻，
