38、e the storm will be and waits for it to develop.Although anyone can do it , storm chasing is extremely dangerous. The power of a big storm can throw a cow into the air or destroy a whole house in seconds. Storm chasers are also often hurt in accidents caused by driving in a heavy rain. If you are a

39、beginner, it is much safer to join a group for storm-chasing vacations during the storm season.Even then, storm chasing is not all adventure and excitement . “Storm chasing is 95% driving,” says Daniel Lynch, who spends most of his summer storm-chasing. “Sometimes you can sit around for hours waitin

44、en to count on their fingers? Generations of pupils have been discouraged by their teachers from using their hands when learning maths. But a new research article published in Frontiers in Education shows using fingers may be a very important part of maths learning.The article, by Professor Tim Jay

45、of Sheffield Hallam University and independent researcher Dr Julie Betenson, substantiates what parents have long felt - that the finger games children often play at home are central to their education.The researchers worked with 137 primary pupils aged between six and seven. All the children were g

46、iven different combinations of counting and number games to play - but only some were given exercises which involved finger-training. Some pupils played games involving number symbols, such as dominoes, shut-the-box, or snakes and ladders. Other pupils were asked to play finger games, such as being

47、asked to hold up a given number of fingers, or numbering fingers from 1 to 5 and then having to match one of them by touching it against the corresponding(对应) finger on the other hand, or following coloured lines using a particular finger. Both these groups did a little better in maths tests than a

48、third group of pupils who had simply had business as usual with their teachers. But the group which did both the counting and the finger games performed far better.This study provides evidence that fingers provide children with a “bridge” between different representations of numbers, which can be ve
