meaning is all people do science in some form. After all, the 【1】______
methods of science are basically simple extension of the ways all 【2】______
people learning about their world. Science in many ways is very 【3】______
similar to how we have been learning about the world since we were
infants. Consequently, because each of you has been used it in one 【4】______
form. or other since you first began toddling about and discovering 【5】______
the world, you already know much more about the scientific method
than you think you do.

the child must examine it, study it, observe it, have a fun with it.【6】______
Next, the child wants to interact on it, touch it, feel it. From 【7】______
passive observations and active interactions, a child slowly learns【8】______
about the world. Some interactions are fun: "If I tip the glass, I get

are not much fun:" If I touch on the red circles on the stove, my 【9】______

2 In a report to be released on Thursday, the environmental group said the world's largest remaining cod stock, in the Barents Sea, was under particular threat.
3 The world's cod fisheries are disappearing fast, with a global catch that declined to 1 million tons in 2000, from 3.42 million tons in 1970, the report said.
4 "If such a trend continues, the world's cod stocks will disappear in 15 years time," it said.
5 In North America, the catch has declined by 90 percent since the early 1980's, while in European waters, the catch of North Sea cod is now just 25 percent of what it was two decades ago.
6 "Overfishing of cod continues because fisheries policies are driven by short-term economic interests," said Simon Cripps, head of the group's oceans program.
7 The Barents Sea, north of Norway and Russia, is one of the world's richest fishing grounds, accounting for half the global cod catch. But although numbers there appear healthy, this may not last, the World Wildlife Fund said.
8 High fishing quotas for 2004 are unsustainable, the group maintained. Some 110,000 tons of cod are also believed to be caught there illegally every year, further denting stocks, it said.
9 "The onus is on Russia and Norway to prevent the Barents Sea cod stock suffering a similar fate as the Canadian cod stock, which collapsed in the 1990's and has not yet recovered," Mr. Cripps said.
10 The World Wildlife Fund said it believed that Barents Sea cod were also threatened by expanded shipping and oil exploration plans.
11 on Tuesday, the Norwegian authorities said the potentially oil-rich sea would be reopened for exploration, after a pause to address environmental concerns about protecting the fragile ecosystem in Arctic waters.
12 Russia, meanwhile, is planning to bolster shipping by developing a new export route via its ice-free, deep-water port of Murmansk, which would give supertankers an economical route to transport oil to the East Coast of the United States.
The principle idea of the article is ______.
A．the factors affecting cod stocks
B．that Barents Sea cod are threatened
C．that Wildlife Fund sees threat to cod stocks
D．how to save cod stock from diminishing

Cod in Trouble
A. In 1992, the devastating collapse of the cod stocks off the east coast of Newfoundland forced the Canadian government to take drastic measures and close the fishery. Over 40,000 people lost their jobs, communities are still struggling to recover and the marine ecosystem is still in a state of collapse. The disintegration of this vital fishery sounded a warning bell to governments around the world who were shocked that a relatively-sophisticated, scientifically-based fisheries management program, not unlike their own, could have gone so wrong. The Canadian government ignored warnings that their fleets were employing destructive fishing practices and refused to significantly reduce quotas citing the loss of jobs as too great a concern.
B. In the 1950s Canadian and US east coast waters provided an annual 100,000 tons in cod catches rising to 800,000 by 1970. This over fishing led to a catch of only 300,000 tons by 1975. Canada and the US reacted by passing legislation to extend their national jurisdictions over marine-living resources out to 200 nautical miles and catches naturally declined to 139,000 tons in 1980. However the Canadian fishing industry took over and restarted the over fishing and catches rose again until, from 1985, it was the Canadians who were landing more than 250,000 tons of northern cod annually. This exploitation ravaged the stocks and by 1990 the catch was so low (29,000 tons) that in 1992 (121/2000 tons) Canada had to ban all fishing in east coast waters. In a fishery that had for over a century yielded a quarter-million ton catches, there remained a biomass of less than 1700 tons and the Fisheries Department also predicted that, even with an immediate recovery, stocks need at least 15 years before they would be healthy enough to withstand previous levels of fishing.
C. The devastating fishing came from massive investment poured into constructing huge "draggers". Draggers haul enormous nets held open by a combination of huge steel plates and heavy chains and rollers that plough the ocean bottom. They drag up anything in the way, inflicting immense damage, destroying critical habitat and contributing to the destabilization of the northern cod ecosystem. The draggers targeted huge aggregations of cod while they were spawning, a time when the fish population is highly vulnerable to capture. Excessive trawling on spawning stocks became highly disruptive to the spawning process, and ecosystem. In addition, the trawling activity resulted in a physical dispersion of eggs leading to a higher fertilization failure. Physical and chemical damage to larvae caused by the trawling action also reduced their chances of survival. These draggers are now banned forever from Canadian waters.
D. Canadian media often cite excessive fishing by overseas fleets, primarily driven by the Capitalist ethic, as the primary cause of the fishing out of the north Atlantic cod stocks. Many nations took fish off the coast of Newfoundland and all used deep-sea trawlers, and many often blatantly exceeded established catch quotas and treaty agreements. There can be little doubt that non-North-American-fishing was a contributing factor in the cod stock collapse, and that the capitalist dynamics that were at work in Canada were all too similar for the foreign vessels and companies. But
A．The mass unemployment.
B．The collapse of marine ecosystem.
C．The cod collapse.
D．The fleets' destructive fishing practices.
A.that; will catch
B.that; catches
C.whether; will catch
D.is; catches
A、catch
B、catches
C、are catching
D、were catching
What may the fish the fisherman catches be made into？
______ The fish is made into
