10、the power of the unknown. I believe that a sense of the unknown pushes us forward in all of our creative activities, from science to art.When I was a child, after bedtime I would often go to the window and stare at the stars. I had so many questions. How far away were those tiny points of light? Did

11、 space go on forever and ever, or was there some edge? And if so, what lay beyond the edge?Another of my childhood questions: Did time go on forever?

13、bout a science problem. These same questions, and questions like them, challenge and haunt the leading scientists of today.Einstein once wrote that “the most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion which stands at the beginning of true art and true science.”

14、 What did Einstein mean by “the mysterious?” I dont think he meant that science is full of unpredictable or unknowable or supernatural forces. I think that he meant a sense of awe, a sense that there are things larger than us, that we do not have all the answers at this moment, and that we can stand

15、 right at the boundary between known and unknown.Scientists are happy, of course, when they find answers to questions.

18、Significance of Science. D.

19、lar, according to US researchers. And tropical (热带的 ) species are at higher risk than those in temperate zones. Some animals might be able to move geographically to deal with rising temperatures, but others live in remote areas where they cannot move, such as in nature reserves or on mountains or is

20、lands.Ecologists analyzed how quickly species had changed their climatic niches (the conditions where they can survive) over time, and how these rates compared with that of global warming. They analyzed populations of plants and animals, including insects, amphibians, birds, mammals and reptiles. Ra

21、tes of change in climatic niches were much slower than rates of projected climate change, by more than 200,000 fold for temperature on average, they said.“Overall, our results show that rates of climatic niche change among populations of plants and animals are remarkably slower than projected rates

22、of future climate change,” said Tereza Jezkova and John Wiens, of the University of Arizona.Mammals might be better placed to survive than amphibians and reptiles, because they had the ability to regulate their own body temperatures, said Dr. Wiens. Besides, while some species might be able to move

23、to higher latitudes (纬度) to survive, “for a lot of organisms, that is not an option.” “Its a double danger of climate change and habitat destruction,” he added.9.

26、naging on their own. Young children are still struggling to control their impulses (冲动) and may need a parents presence to feel secure.

27、 new situation often take the form of crying, which causes parents considerable concern. Generally, childrens protesting behavior around separation gets the most attention. At times, a different point of view may arise between parents and teachers about the best way to handle the situation. Teachers

28、 may think a child will be fine if the parent just leaves, while a parent may see the child as needing her presence. These roles are sometimes interchanged.Although it is the apparent upsets that get the most attention, when observing pre-school groups one can see the various ways children deal with

29、 the feelings aroused by separation. Some children deal with the situation by removing themselves from the group.

31、e, mothers always wonder why their own child is not able to master separating from them as other children do.
