Four Interesting Science Museums

Polytechnic Museum, Russia

For many guests of the capital, some of the most vivid childhood memories are

associated with this museum. A variety of technical fields are presented in 65 halls-Mining,

Space, Energy, and Transportation, etc. And the exposition（博览会）is the only museum

project in Russia about the history of the bike. The interactive division "Technoplay" is open,

where you not only can but also need touch most of the exhibits with your hands. In addition

to self-experimentation, for personal requests the museum's experts will show many

entertaining experiments.

Eureka, England

The Eureka educational center is a huge complex where modern science and technology

are becoming clear, even to kids. The main exhibition is devoted to the human body, the laws

of physics and natural things. Visitors can obtain energy or create paper with their own hands.

On the area of the Eureka educational park there is a botanical garden and a collection of

minerals from the rock types of Finland is presented there.

After university in 2011, Samuel went to a rural primary school for native children,

where, on his first day, another teacher told him, "Samuel, you don't have to do much, they're

just Orang Asli-native children." This was what Samuel would spend years fighting against.

The Orang Asli community has struggled with poverty, melting into society, and losing

their own identity and culture due to others' disregard of it. Samuel saw that the main barrier

in teaching these children was the attitude on the part of many teachers that the native

children were not worth their efforts. It was thought that whatever was taught would make no

difference, so nobody bothered to try. The children themselves ended up believing these

stigmas (污名), often doubting what they can achieve. Teachers skipped or slept in classes,

and little effort was made to create an appropriate learning environment. Consequently, the

school was one of the worst-performing in the district.

Samuel bonded with his native students and accepted their culture, leading him to see

their potential. However, he also came to see that they did not have equal opportunities

compared to urban schools, due to the lack of facilities. So he set up a crowdfunding project

to create a fully equipped 21st-century English classroom with tablets and computers. The

Orang Asli children now learn technology, experience English and communicate in English

with volunteers all over Malaysia and overseas.

Consequently, the students have improved in national standardized examinations, from a

pass rate of 30% in English (2008-2012) to an average of 80% (2013-2017). These efforts

have resulted in a shift of what local children are considered capable of academically.

A．They were intelligent. B．They were hopeless.

C．They were unfriendly. D．They were independent.

5．What major problem did Samuel need to solve?

A．The poverty of local people. B．The lack of facilities in his school.

C．The prejudice against the native kids. D．The unsuitable teaching methods.

6．What is paragraph 3 mainly about?

A．The change of native students.

B．The importance of learning English.

C．The improvement of native education.

D．Samuel's work for the native kids.

7．What can we learn from Samuel's story?

A．Respect makes a big difference.

B．The academic performance comes first.

C．Everyone deserves access to education.

D．One method can't apply to each situation.

A shocking 53.6 million tons of electronic waste were discarded（丢弃）last year, a

new UN-backed report has revealed. The report shows that e-waste is up 21%from five years

ago. This isn't surprising, considering how many more people are adopting new technology

and updating devices regularly to have the latest versions, but the report also shows that

national collection and recycling strategies are nowhere close to matching consumption rates.

E-waste contains materials including copper（铜）, iron, gold and silver, which the

report gives a conservative value of $ 57 billion. But most are thrown away or burned rather

than being collected for recycling. Precious metals in waste are estimated to be worth $ 14

billion, but only $4 billion-worth is recovered at the moment.

While the number of countries with national e-waste policies has grown from 61 to 78

since 2014, there is little encouragement to obey and a mere 17% of collected items are

recycled. If recycling does occur, it's often under dangerous conditions, such as burning

circuit boards to recover copper, which "releases highly poisonous metals" and harms the

health of workers.

The report found that Asia has the highest amounts of waste overall, producing 24.9

million metric tons (MMT), followed by Europe at 12 MMT, Africa at 2.9 MMT, and Oceania

at 0.7 MMT.

But whose responsibility is it? Are governments in charge of setting up collection and

recycling points, or should companies be responsible for recycling the goods they produce? It

goes both ways. Companies do need to be held accountable by government regulations and

have incentives to design products that are easily repaired. At the same time, governments
