Scientists study the world and learn about things using a process called the scientific method(方法). By asking important questions and the answers, it is possible to make amazing discoveries! Sometimes a scientist is to answer his own questions, but if he has taken good notes another scientist may come along later who is able to use new knowledge to answer it.
When you use the scientific method to an experiment, you start by making observations(观察) about something that you. Based on your observations, you make a hypothesis. This is using you know to make a smart guess about what you think could happen. Then you are ready to begin your experiment. All your experiment you take down notes, which are experiment date(资料). You are constantly making observations during this time. You may make discoveries that cause you to improve your experiment as you go. , you conclude your experiment and begin to look over your notes to decide what it all means. Based on what you have learned, you make a final statement about your hypothesis was correct or not. You have to have reasons and evidence to support what you are saying.
Using the scientific method can be difficult, but rewarding. Because all the steps are organized in a process, the are more valid(可信的). When you provide observations as evidence to support what you are saying, your ideas are more likely to be accepted.

Dear Dad,
I am writing this letter to you because it’s too difficult to talk about it. I can’t stop about my uncle and how he died. In fact, I seriously want to ask you to stop smoking. I’ve looked up information about smoking and I’ve found out some disturbing(令人不安的) things.
You already know that smoking is bad for your breathing and can cause cancer. I’ve found out it causes many other illnesses as well. Did you know that over 100,000 people die from smoking every year in Britain? It’s the second cause of death in the world. I don’t want you to be one of these people.
When Mum you to smoke outside, you think she’s just being difficult. Well, it’s true that she doesn’t like the smell of smoke in the house and on our clothes. It’s not very pleasant. However, when you smoke, it’s also bad for me and Mum. In other words, when we breathe in your smoke, it’s like we are smoke . As a result, we can get diseases as well. Doctors are finding that more and more non-smokers are falling ill because of the effects of other people’s smoking.
I know that it is very difficult to stop smoking you mustn’t give in(屈服) to it. Please see the doctor and ask him for help. We will do anything we can you. You must try to save your own . You are important to us and we don’t want to lose you. Who else can I ask to help me my maths homework or fix my bike? Please don’t smoke!
Your loving daughter,
Kate

(原创)Do you believe in yourself? When you are in trouble, don’t say you can’t get over it. Believe in your dreams. Believe that you are loved. Believe that you make a difference. I was told a about a teacher who once did what he could to make his students get to know the of believing in themselves.
The teacher stood his class and was going to hand out the final exam papers. “I know how hard you have worked to prepare for this test,” he said. “And because I know you can do it well, I am willing to a B to those who prefer not to the test.”
Many students thanked the teacher and left. The teacher looked at the students left and said, “Does anyone else want to get a ‘B’? This is your last chance” Two more students decided to go.
Only seven students were still in the classroom. The teacher then handed out the papers. There were only three sentences on the paper: Congratulations! You have just received an “ “in this class. believing in yourselves.
