阅读理解二则(英文)

导读: 湛蓝的天幕下, 浩渺的海洋中, 冰山宛若一座巨型的汉白玉 雕成的海上宫殿, 晶莹剔透, 绚丽多姿。但是, 直到 1912 年“泰坦尼克 号”的沉没, 人们才认识到它的冷峻与无情。 Fog at sea is dangerous. But icebergs at sea are terrifying. Just the mention of icebergs and we immediately think of Ti- tanic. Sure the iceberg that ship struck is large, but we know : one of the largest ever seen was in the Antarctic re- gion. It was 60 miles wide. It was over 200 miles long. Let us compare it to one of our st…

混合流体完备方程组的局部解析解

With the straification theory we have proved the transversal layer s03,k(D) of complete equations for mixed fluid is not an empty set: s03,k(D)≠φfor all k(k≥1). Based on this conclusion and the "secondary equation" of s03,k(D), this paper fully presents the expressions of coefficients in all local analytic solutions of the equations. Therefore we provide the calculation formulas by which we can get the numerical solutions to any desired accuracy.     

How to Motivate Students to Speak English

Just think of all the different conversations we have in one day and compare that with how much written communication we do in one day. Which do we do more of?. In our daily lives most of us speak more than we write,yet many English teachers still spend the majority of class time on reading and writing practice, almost ignoring speaking and listening skills: Do you think this is a good balance? If the goal of our teaching English is truly to enable our students to communicate in English,then speak- ing skills should be taught and practiced in the classroom.

On the Use of the Passive and Active Voice in Academic Writings of Meth ods Section

Voice is an important topic in academic writing research.Despite increasing research interest,voice has remained a contentious topic.In the article:On the Use of the Passive and Active Voice in Astrophysics Journal Papers:With Extensions to other Languages and other Fields,an interesting hypothesis has been put forward:“Writers of methods sections in this field tend to use we+active when they have made a unique procedural choice or have introduced some technical innovation.On the other hand,the passive seems to be used when authors are simply following established or standard procedures.”Based on the existing research,this paper chooses to study the active and passive forms in the methods section of research articles,and we examine the frequency of the active and passive verb forms in the methods section of two linguistics journal articles.And to verify an old hypothesis:The we+active is used for new stuff,while the passive is preferred for old stuff,this paper will examine the we+active forms and passive verb forms the in methods section in two linguistic journal articles.

Simulation of droplet topography on super-hydrophobic surface

We established a novel droplet model (with-gravity model) to show the gravity effect of the droplet in the contact angle experiment.By using with-gravity model, we obtained a three-dimensional topography of the droplet including the height of the droplet, the shape of the baseline and the circumference of the baseline.Comparing the with-gravity model with the ideal spherical model, our model considered the measurement error caused by gravity effect in the contact angle experiment which is a key point to influence the three-dimension topography of the droplet.From the calculation of our model, we found that there were two important points to enhance the measurement error: the size of the droplet and the contact angle.With the droplet and the contact angle became larger, measurement error was obviously increased.

The "Dark Self" in "The Secret Sharer" and "Heart of Darkness"

Human nature is one of the most thoroughly studied topics in human history.Even today the argument continues in all different social contexts,and by studying Conrad’s two stories:Heart of Darkness and The Secret Sharer,the author tries to analyze the two sides of the nature,both good and evil,which are inherent in us humans.In the essay the author explores the two heroes in the stories and tries to prove that only when we realize and admit our capability for the evil,can we make the good and kind side of nature to flourish.
