Sometimes they try to remember a solution from the last time they had a 36 problem. They often accept the opinion or i
17、deas of other people. Other times they begin to act without 37 ;they try to find a solution by trial and error. 38 ,when all of these methods fail, the person with a problem has to start analysing.There are six 39 in analysing a problem. 40 the person must recognise that there is a problem. For exam
18、ple, Sams bicycle is broken ,and he cannot ride it to class as he usually does. Sam must 41 that there is a problem with his bicycle.Next the person must 42 the problem. Before Sam can repair his bicycle, he must know why it does not work. For example, he must 43 the parts that are wrong.Now the per
19、son must look for 44 that will make the problem clearer and lead to 45 solutions. For example, suppose Sam 46 that his bike does not work because there is something wrong with the brakes. At this time he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about brakes, 47 his friends at the bike shop, or l
20、ook at his brakes carefully.After 48 the problem, the person should have 49 suggestions for a possible solution. Take Sam as an example 50 ,his suggestions might be: tighten or loosen the brakes; buy new brakes and change the old ones.In the end, one suggestion seems to be the solution 51 the proble
21、m. Sometimes the final idea comes quite 52 because the thinker suddenly sees something in a 53 way. Sam ,for example, suddenly sees there is a piece of chewing gum(口香糖) stuck to a brake. He 54 hits on the solution to his problem: he must clean the brake.Finally the solution is 55 .Sam does it and fi

25、scientists, eager to look into the world around them. Helping them enjoy science can be easy; theres no need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive lab equipment. You only have to share your childrens curiosity(好奇).Firstly, listen to their questions. I once visited a classroom of seven-year-olds
26、 to talk about science as a job. The children asked me “textbook questions” about schooling, salary(薪水) and whether I liked my job. When I finished answering, we sat facing one another in silence. Finally I said,“Now that weve finished with your lists, do you have questions of your own about science
27、?”After a long pause, a boy raised his hand,“Have you ever seen a grasshopper(蚱蜢) eat?When I try eating leaves like that, I get a stomachache. Why?”This began a set of questions that lasted nearly two hours.Secondly, give them time to think. Studies over the past 30 years have shown that, after aski
28、ng a question, adults typically wait only one second or less for an answer, no time for a child to think. When adults increase their “wait time” to three seconds or more, children give more logical(符合逻辑的),complete and creative answers.Thirdly, watch your language. Once you have a child involved in a
29、 science discussion, dont jump in with “Thats right” or “Very good”.These words work well when it comes to encouraging good behavior(行为).But in talking about science, quick praise can signal that discussion is over. Instead, keep things going by saying,“Thats interesting” or “Id never thought of it
30、that way before”,or coming up with more questions or ideas.Never push a child to “Think”.It doesnt make sense, children are always thinking, without your telling them to. Whats more, this can turn a conversation into a performance. The child will try to find the answer you want, In as few words as p
31、ossible, so that he will be a smaller target(目标) for your disagreement.Lastly, show dont tell. Real-life impressions of nature are far more impressive than any lesson children can learn from a book or a television program. Let children look at their fingertips through a magnifying glass(放大镜),and the
32、yll understand why you want them to wash before dinner. Rather than saying that water evaporates (蒸发),set a pot of water to boil and let them watch the water level drop.56.According to the passage, children are natural scientists, and to raise their interest, the most important thing for adults to d
