Other forms of lives can be found in very dry areas like desserts. However, for any form of live to exist, conditions must be right. When the conditions aren’t right, that form of lives can extinct. To become extinct means to die out completely.Conditions must be right for life to exist. Millions of years ago, there were forms of lives that no longer exist. When condition changed, this form of life died out. One extinction event happened about 250 million years ago. This is the largest extinction event of all time. Many forms of lives become extinct. 96% of all lives in the oceans died out. Most insects also became extinct. This event happened over a period of several million years. The causes of this extinction event are still unknown. Possible causes include largest volcanic eruptions and global warming. Some scientists believe that there were several causes. They believe that a series of events caused the extinctions. Scientists are working for better understand what really happened.In modern times, we human beings face changing conditions. For humans to live, we need clean air and clean water. Pollution is now a growing problem around the world. Pollution poisons the air and water that we depend on.

The entire ecosystem that we depend on is changing. Some of these changings are irreversible. Irreversible changes cannot be undone. Let’s hope the humans are smart enough to understand how the world is changing. With more understanding, we make better choices about what to do. We c an face the challenge of the pollutions and global warming. We need to do this before it’s too late.

Atoms are the building blocks of matter.At the center of an atom is its nucleus which has a positive electric charge. Outside the nucleus are electrons which have a negative charge. Asteroids and comets are objects that obey our sun, but are smaller than planets.Asteroids that pass close to the Earth are called near-earth objects. The layer of gases just above the Earth’s surface is our atmosphere. The atmosphere is made of gases such as oxygen and nitrogen. Withoutan atmosphere there would be no life on Earth.If they collide with Earth they could cause an extinction event.A force can increase or decrease the speed of an object, and it can change the direction of motion. Theelectric force between the nucleus and the electrons holds the atom together.The two lines on the left intersect each other at a right angle which is90 degrees.The two lines on the right are parallel which means they never cross. The adjacent sides of a rectangle are perpendicular which means they meet a 90-degree angle.The opposite sides of a rectangle are equal and parallel which means they never cross.The area of a rectangle is the length times the width.A circle is a two dimensional figure with a radius and a circumference which is the distance around the circle. Thearea of a circle is Pi R squared, where R is the radius and Pi is the ratio of the circle circumference to its diameter.A sphere is a three dimensional figure with a radius and a volume which is four thirds Pi R cubed.All points on the surface of a sphere are equidistant from its center.A right triangle is a two dimensional figure with three side, two of which are perpendicular.To find its area, multiply the length of the two perpendicular sides a and b and divide by 2, A equals 1 half ab.A rectangle is a 2 dimensional figure with 4 sides.DialogueM: Have you finished eating yetW: No, I haven’t.

Unit 3-1 ListeningThere are many forms of lives on earth, including human beings. Life exists in a variety of conditions. Some forms of live live in the watery environment, like the oceans. Other forms of lives can be found in very dry areas like desserts. However, for any form of live to exist, conditions must be right. When the conditions aren’t right, that form of lives can extinct. To become extinct means to die out comp letely.Conditions must be right for life to exist. Millions of years ago, there were forms of lives that no longer exist. When condition changed, this form of life died out. One extinction event happened about 250 million years ago. This is the largest extinction event of all time. Many forms of lives become extinct. 96% of all lives in the oceans died out. Most insects also became extinct. This event happened over a period of several million years. The causes of this extinction event are still unknown. Possible causes include largest volcanic eruptions and global warming. Some scientists believe that there were several causes. They believe that a series of events caused the extinctions. Scientists are working for better understand what really happened.In modern times, we human beings face changing conditions. For humans to live, we need clean air and clean water. Pollution is now a growing problem around the world. Pollution poisons the air and water that we depend on. Polluted air makes people sick and afraid to get outside. Polluted water poisons our food supply. As a result, we never know which foods are safe to eat. Human beings can be not live in a poisoned environment. Therefore, pollution is a major threat to our existence.Humans need temperature to be in a comfortable range. To be in a comfortable range means to be neither too hot nor too cold. With global warming, global temperatures are rising. As global temperatures rise, the polar icecaps will melt. As the polar icecaps melt, ocean levels will rise. Areas of some countries will soon be under water. People would be forced to relocated from flooded areas.In nature, even small changes can sometimes have large effects. It’s difficult to predict what’s going to happen. The entire ecosystem that we depend on is changing. Some of these changings are irreversible. Irreversible changes cannot be undone. Let’s hope the humans are smart enough to understand how the world is changing. With more understanding, we make better choices about what to do. We can face the challenge of the pollutions and global warming. We need to do this before it’s too late. This planet of earth is our only home and we need to protect it.Lizard 蜥蜴Mammals are covered by hair or fur, have a backbone and warm-blooded.

Solar power depends on sunlight, so in cloudy weather or at night, no power generated.Wind energy is non-polluting but it’s only useful in places where there is a lot of wind. Windy turbines convert the kinetic energy by wind into a mechanical power.Nuclear energy is efficient and doesn’t produce carbon gases as waste products. The dangerous of nuclear power included deadly radioactive waste products.A major source of energy comes from the burning of fossil fuels such as coal and oil. When we burn the fossil fuels, waste gases such as CO2 are produced. Fossil fuss remain the large sources of energy from most counties.Hydro power comes the kinetic energy of falling water. Output is reliable and can be regularly to meet the demand except during the period of drought.Here are different types of words in English.

Leonardo’s father was lawyer and landowner and his mother was a peasant. Leonardo’s parents were never married to each other.Leonardo lived with his mother until he was around 5 years old. When he was 5, he moved into the home of his father. By then, his father had married a 16-year-old girl. Leonardo’s mother married with other person and moved to another town. She had many more children after that with several men. In the end, Leonardo had more than 15 half-si sters or brothers. As a young man, Da Vinci didn’t go to school. He was educated at home at reading, writing and mathematics. In other subjects, he was mostly self-educated. He had access to books at his father’s home. Leonard o spent a lot of time outdoors and developed a strong interest in nature. He loved to observe things especially birds. He was also interested in the properties of water.Leonardo’s early drawings are paintings demonstrated a rare talent. His father and his father’s friend s recognized his talent and encouraged him. When he was 15, he was sent to Florence. In Florence, he became an apprentice to a famous master painter. For the next few years, Leonardo worked at his master’s workshop.
