unit 3 a healthy life reading课时作业. 阅读理解under the cold clear water of lake huron，researchers have found a fiveandahalffootlong piece of wood that is 8,900 years old. the wood，which is tapered(使成锥形) on one side in a way that looks deliberate，may provide important clues to a mysterious period in north american prehistory. “this was the stage when humans gradually shifted from hunting large animals to fishing，gathering and agriculture，” said anthropologist john oshea. “but because most of the places in this area that prehistoric people lived in are now under water，we dont have good evidence of this important shift itself. we just have clues from before and after the change. ”with support from the national science foundation (nsf) and the national oceanic and atmospheric administration (noaa)，oshea and his colleague guy meadows began exploring the area several years ago. in 2009 they reported finding a series of stone features that they believe were “drive lanes” used by ancient indian hunters. since that discovery，oshea and meadows have worked on identifying human campsites，which are typically located away from hunting areas. on their 25foot boat，the researchers first spotted the ancient wood object using a small piece of equipment with a camera. then a team of diversincluding osheawent down about 100 feet to get it. the woods age has now been fixed by means of carbon dating. it is currently undergoing more detailed analyses to determine whether there has been human modification，which visual examination suggests. “the first thing you notice is that it appears to have been shaped with a rounded base and a pointed tip，” oshea said. “it must have been created. it looks like it might have been used as a tent pole or a pole to hang meat. ”in addition to the wood，the researchers have collected many other samples from the bottom of the lake. oshea and his colleagues will need to wait for calmer weather before they can resume their search for evidence of human life under the great lake. 【语篇解读】考古学家们的新发现有望印证远古人类从游猎文明到农耕文明的转变。1during the mysterious period mentioned in the passage，the lake huron area _. awas deserted by ancient indiansbwitnessed the

performing experiments is very important in the field of psychology(心理学)before beginning a study，however，any scientist who wishes to perform an experiment should be familiar with the steps of the scientific method. _1_form a hypothesis(假设)it is an educated guess about what will happen during the study. _2_coming up with a hypothesis before you start can help guide your experiment. plan out a study. planning out the experiment is essential because the psychologist needs to know if they have time，materials，and testing areas prepared beforehand. this step also helps the scientists to determine if they will be performing descriptive or experimental research. the ideal situation is to always perform experimental research. _3_descriptive research simply collects data regarding the problem and forms a hypothesis according to the data. collect data. _4_if the data collected is not recorded and organized，the entire efforts of the study may be wasted. the best way to do this may be to record the proceedings so that no details are lost. analyze the data. once all the data has been collected and organized，it must be analyzed. using previous research or scientific information about the problem，the psychologist must apply the new data gathered. publish the information learned. the final step of the scientific method in psychology is publishing the results of the study. _5_most psychological experiments are published in scientific journals. ait is based on scientific facts，not just opinions. bread on to find out how to use the scientific method in psychology. cbefore psychologists start the experiment，they must plan out the steps. dthis helps other psychologists to learn about and use the new information. ethe scientific method has proved to be an effective way to

【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文，主要阐明了如何在心理学实验中使用科学的方法。1b根据空前的“the scientific method”可知，选b项，用来指明如何在心理学实验中使用科学的方法。2a根据本段第一句“form a hypothesis(假设)”以及空后的“coming up with a hypothesis before you start can help guide your experiment”可知，本段主要阐述了心理学实验的第一步：形成一个假设，以科学事实而不仅仅是观点为根据。故a项正确。3g空前的“to always perform experimental research”与g项中的“this”相对应；空后的“descriptive research”与g选项中的“descriptive research”相对应，用以阐明描述性研究的特点，故g项正确。4f根据空后的“if the data collected is not recorded and organized，the entire efforts of the study may be wasted”“record the proceedings”可以判断，空处阐述的是将数据记录下来的重要性，故f项正确。5d根据该段首句“publish the information learned”可知，该段主要阐述将实验得出的结论公开出版，故选d，这有助于其他心理学家学习和使用新的信息。. 语法填空harrys parents love him very much and expect he can become 1.
