• 3．

  School is starting soon.Last year I bullied （欺負(fù)） a boy.（I'm a girl.）I attacked him even though he's stronger because I knew he wouldn't hit a girl.I want to apologize but I don't know how.I feel bad for doing this.He doesn't trust me.How should I show him I have changed？                                                                                                                                       Lily     Firstly，be proud of yourself for changing.It's not easy to admit（承認(rèn)） that you bullied someone or to stop once you start.     Offering an apology to someone bullied is a great first step toward starting over.If you can，tell him， "I want to apologize for my actions last year." Speaking from the heart can help，tell him， "I feel really bad for what I did.It's been on my mind all summer."     People who are bullied often have difficulty trusting others，especially the people who bullied them in the past.So don't expect the other person to accept your apology easily.     Secondly，be patient.It will take time.You've probably heard that " actions speak louder than words".So after offering words of an apology，you then need to show him that you've really changed：be kind and helpful to him.     Thirdly，you should remember：First，what you're doing takes courage and you can be proud of the fact that your are taking real steps to change.Second，whatever happens，you're building some good skills and learning more about yourself and the kind of person you want to be.

• 4．About 2，400 years ago in ancient Greece，Aristotle was born.It was a period when the Greeks highly respected great thinkers and teachers，such as Pythagoras，Socrates，Democritus，and Plato.Many historians believe that Aristotle was greater than all of them.
      Aristotle is called "the father of biology."Many of his discoveries are still considered correct today.For example，it was Aristotle who first wrote that dolphins are not fish-through close observation，he had found out that they give birth to their babies rather than laying eggs，and that mother dolphins feed milk to their young.
      Aristotle's way of grouping animals may have been his most important achievement.in biological science.Experts used his system for over 2，000 years.In 1758，a Swedish scientist discovered a new way of grouping animals.Aristotle placed the animals into two groups：those with blood and those without.In fact，his way of grouping，though a little bit different，was approximately the same as the modern grouping system of vertebrates and invertebrates.
      Professor Nardo wrote："Although Aristotle paid much attention to the importance of evidence（證據(jù)），he failed to realize that doing experiment is almost always the best method of finding it.Yet，when he did simple and basic experiments，Aristotle was able to make mostly correct conclusions."
      He also wrote that"Aristotle's influence on the future growth of knowledge was both negative and positive..." For example，Aristotle believed that the planets went around the Earth ，not the Sun.Because the later scientists believed in him blindly，their progress in astronomy was stopped.However，he added that many of Aristotle's ideas brilliantly provided directions for modern discoveries.

  D.Aristotle believed dolphins are not fish because they lay eggs.
  （2）Why is Aristotle called "the father of biology"？

  
  A.He discover that dolphins feed milk to their young.
  B.He was the first man to find that dolphins are not fish.
  C.People consider him greater than all the other thinkers.
  D.People still accept many of his discoveries on biology.
