Join us in our lively classroom! We carefully design our programs and use our resources to
support you in your teaching efforts, while getting your students involved and excited about
learning.
Available Programs
Web of Life
A healthy ecosystem is one in which multiple

relatively stable web of life. Students will
examine how organisms in a local ecosystem
are interrelated.
Up All Night
Just as we go to sleep at night, a whole new
world of animals is waking up! This program
will walk students through a comprehensive
study of how these animals use their senses to
help them hunt for food at night.
Oh Give Me a Biome (生物群落)
Students will use NASA’s data maps to
identify biomes around the world and will
look at how animals develop over time and are
adapted to living in each.
Animals and Weather
Students will work with educators to figure
out how animals use adaptation to protect
themselves against different kinds of weather.
Pricing
＊Minimum cost of $240 if you have fewer than 15 students.

As a boy, John Kerr wanted to be a fireman or a park ranger( 护林员). Looking back on that
childhood fantasy, he says, “I think it was calling me.” Instead, he spent four decades at one of
public broadcasting’s flagship stations in Boston. He retired in 2005 at the age of 65 without any
particular post-career goal in mind. After several weeks to sit around, he decided to drive his
camper to visit family in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
In route, he casually stopped at the Yellowstone Park Foundation, which raises funds for
Yellowstone, America’s first national park. As it happens, the foundation was hiring people to
educate park guests on wolves. Kerr signed on. After working there for several weeks, and
encouraged by his daughter, Kerr applied to the Student Conservation Association for an internship
(实习).
To say that Kerr stood out in the intern crowd is a big understatement. Most interns were
college and even high school students. But, in a sense, he had been ready for this since his youth.
His outdoor adventures with his grandfather had given him a love of nature, and, as an adult, he had
helped out at the local fire department on medical calls.
He also had something else. There are 31 million Americans between the ages of 44 and 70.
Some retired, looking for a third act, some looking for a more satisfying career, searching for
something where they feel as if they’re making a contribution, doing something to make their
neighborhood, their country, their world just a little bit better. Kerr also had that deep desire to do
something more.
From his internship, he moved up to a ranger, educating park visitors to ensure safe contact
between guests and animals, and responding to medical emergencies. He treasures his job in what
he describes as one of the most beautiful places on Earth, and revels in moments when he treats a
visitor to an up-close look at one of the park’s wolves or bears through his telescope, an occasion
that can move visitors to tears.
“These are rich and all-too-rare moments,” recalls Kerr, “I never forget them.”
24. What do we know about John Kerr?
A. He joined the program in the park by accident.
B. He had a specific aim after retirement.
C. He got a casual job with his daughter’s help.
D. He did a job he dreamed of for decades.
25. What made John Kerr outstanding in the internship?
A. His determined resolve. B. His academic degree.
C. His previous experiences. D. His medical knowledge.
26. Which of the following best describes John Kerr?
A. Aggressive. B. Committed. C. Awkward. D. Desperate.
27. What does the underlined phrase “revels in” in paragraph 6 mean?
A. Dreads B. Awaits C. Quits D. Enjoys
C
A new study led by researchers at the University of California, Riverside, has found exposure
to third-hand smoke (THS) causes skin diseases.
The study — the first to look at humans exposed to THS — involved 10 healthy non-smokers
wearing clothing with either filtered (过滤的) air or THS chemicals. The investigation lasted three
hours, during which participants would either walk or run for 15 minutes per hour — this would make
them sweat and increase the levels of THS potentially taken in through the skin. Blood samples were
collected, which were measured to see whether THS may have caused cell or tissue damage.
“We found THS exposure caused damage to DNA, lipids (脂质) and proteins and the damage
remained even after the exposure stopped,” said Shane Sakamaki-Ching, a doctor of biology and
the first author of the study. “Cigarette smokers show the same result.” The study showed exposure
to THS increases signals related with skin diseases, which makes sense: the organ most likely to
come into contact with THS is your skin, and so it receives the biggest exposure to the harmful
chemicals. “However, what’s even more worrying is the tendency to lead to cancer,” added
Sakamaki-Ching.
“If you buy a used car previously owned by a smoker, you are putting yourself at some health
risk,” said Prue Talbot, a professor of cell biology at UC Riverside and the corresponding author of
the study. “If you go to a restaurant that allows smoking, you are exposing your skin to THS. The
same applies to staying in a hotel room that was previously occupied by a smoker.”
Sakamaki-Ching said, “Our findings can assist physicians in checking patients exposed to
THS and help develop policies improving indoor environments polluted by THS.”
28. Why were the participants in the study asked to take exercise?
A. To keep themselves energetic. B. To speed up blood circulation.
C. To remove THS by sweating. D. To absorb more THS through skin.
29. What does Sakamaki-Ching say about exposure to THS?
A. It tends to cause bad health consequences. B. It only puts the victim’s skin at risk.
C. It is likely to change smokers’ DNA. D. It will have a mild effect on health.
30. What message does Prue Talbot want to convey in paragraph 4?
A. Public places risk being polluted. B. THS exists widely in our daily life.
C. Smokers should be punished. D. Second-hand cars are banned from buying.
31. Which of the following could be the best title for the text?
A. Causes of Skin Diseases B. A Campaign to Quit Smoking
C. Potential Harm of THS D. Danger of Indoor Environments
D
With renewable energy the big problem is storing the electricity for when the sun does not
shine and the wind does not blow. A solution, one group of scientists thinks, could have lain
beneath our feet all along. Michael Harbottle from Cardiff University is leading the project, which
seeks to turn soil into a kind of battery by using the microbes (微生物) within.
The planned system involves running a current between buried electrodes ( 电极) .This makes
certain bacteria come alive in the soil. Just as sunlight provides the energy for plants to make sugar
from carbon dioxide and water, the electrical energy lets the bacteria transform carbon dioxide into
a chemical. This chemical becomes in effect a chemical store of energy, and when the energy is
needed, a different circuit (电路) is switched on, giving different bacteria the energy to break down
the chemical. This process frees electrons, which flow through the circuit, providing electricity on
demand.
“The bugs will eat the food, pass the electrons, and it will power the lightbulb at the same
time,” said Harbottle, “It’s no real difference from what they’re doing when they’re consuming
food and producing energy to grow. It’s just we are making use of that energy to get a little bit for
ourselves.”
For now, though, there are more fundamental questions. As with all energy storage systems,
the viability (可行性) could depend on how much energy is lost in the process. Unlike in other
energy storage systems, it also depends on whether anything else eats these bacteria and what
happens when it rains. “It’s not in a box. It’s not contained. The things you reuse can be moving
around; they can be spreading to all sorts of places. The challenge,” Harbottle admitted, “is that it’s
an uncontrolled environment.”
32. What is the purpose of the project?
A. To develop new land. B. To find new storage system .
C. To remove carbon dioxide. D. To discover new microbes.
33. Which aspect of the planned system is paragraph 2 mainly about?
