7、f your listening is to predict what you will hear.Using the pictures provided and the knowledge you already have,you can guess the kinds of information you should listen for.At times,you may even be able to guess exactly what will be talked about.This will help you focus better when listening,making

30、tside,your warm body temperature and the moisture coming from your breath will increase the humidity in the car.When this humid and warm air touches the cold glass,the water in the air condenses on the glass to create fog.Though this,we know that water condenses when warm air touches the cold glass.
31、This is how fog is formed on the car windows.3.Think about the function of science:Why do we study science?What can we do with scientific knowledge?Life Bring new inventions.Make peoples lives easier.Mind Inspire curiosity and an attitude of discovery.Increase our understanding of the world.Society
