Ben wanted to find out which materials, P, Q, R, or S, would make the best raincoat. He hung a similar piece of each material on a string. The materials were dipped in 20 ml of water.
After ten minutes, Ben removed each material from the beaker and measured the amount of water left. He recorded the results in the table below.

Which is the best material to make the raincoat?
AP
BQ
CR
DS
看答案和讲解
正确答案:C. R
考点材料的吸水性:做雨衣的材料 · Absorbency: choosing material for a raincoat
思路:剩下的水越多,说明材料吸的水越少。R 一点水都没吸(还剩 20 ml),最防水,最适合做雨衣。 Think: The more water left in the beaker, the less water the material soaked up. R absorbed no water (20 ml left), so it is the best for a raincoat. 小提醒:做雨衣要选不吸水的材料。 Tip: A raincoat needs a material that does not absorb water.

Linda placed magnet E and a steel pin at the end of a ruler on the table as shown.
She moved magnet E slowly towards the pin until it attracted the pin from a distance.
She then recorded the distance, d, of how far she has moved the magnet towards the steel pin to attract it. She repeated the experiment with three other magnets, F, G and H, and recorded the results in the table.

Based on the results, which magnet, E, F, G or H, has the greatest magnetic strength?
AE
BF
CG
DH
看答案和讲解
正确答案:C. G
考点磁铁:比较磁力强弱 · Magnets: comparing magnetic strength
思路:d 是磁铁要移动多远才能吸到钉子。磁力越强,离钉子还很远就能吸住,所以要移动的距离越短。G 只要移动 2 cm,最短,磁力最强。 Think: d is how far the magnet had to move before it attracted the pin. A stronger magnet attracts the pin from further away, so it needs to move less. G moved only 2 cm, so G is the strongest. 小提醒:这里 d 越小,磁力越强。 Tip: Here, the smaller d is, the stronger the magnet.

Which of the following correctly shows the life cycle of a mosquito?
A
B
C
D
看答案和讲解
正确答案:B.
考点蚊子的生命周期:卵、幼虫、蛹、成虫 · Life cycle of a mosquito: egg, larva, pupa, adult
思路:A 是成虫,B 是蛹,C 是幼虫,D 是浮在水面的卵。正确顺序:卵 D → 幼虫 C → 蛹 B → 成虫 A → 卵 D。选项 2 顺着箭头是 C → B → A → D → C,正好符合。 Think: A is the adult, B the pupa, C the larva and D the eggs. The order is D → C → B → A → D. Option 2 reads C → B → A → D → C, which matches. 小提醒:顺着箭头一个一个读,看看是不是“卵→幼虫→蛹→成虫”。 Tip: Follow the arrows and check: egg → larva → pupa → adult.

Ali conducted an experiment to find out if the number of turns of wire around the iron nail affects the magnetic strength of an electromagnet.
Which set-ups A, B, C or D should he use to conduct a fair experiment?
AA and B
BA and D
CB and C
DC and D
看答案和讲解
正确答案:A. A and B
考点磁铁:电磁铁的公平测试 · Magnets: fair test for an electromagnet
思路:只能改变线圈的圈数,电池数量要一样。A 和 B 都用 3 个电池,圈数分别是 10 和 20,所以选 A 和 B。 Think: Only the number of turns should change; the number of batteries must stay the same. A and B both use 3 batteries with 10 and 20 turns. So A and B. 小提醒:电池越多,电磁铁也越强,所以电池数量一定要一样。 Tip: More batteries also make the electromagnet stronger, so keep the batteries the same.

Study the flow chart below.
Which of the following best represents the thing X shown above?
AE
BF
CG
DH
看答案和讲解
正确答案:D. H
考点分类图:开花植物 · Flow chart: classifying a flowering plant

Strings W, X, Y and Z are made of different materials. The diagram below shows the greatest mass that each string can support before it breaks.
Which string(s) can support a mass of up to 6 kg without breaking?
AZ only
BW and Y only
CX and Z only
DW, X and Z only
看答案和讲解
正确答案:C. X and Z only
考点材料的强度:读图比较承重 · Materials: comparing strength from a diagram
思路:要承受 6 kg 不断,绳子最大承重要至少 6 kg。W 5 kg、Y 3 kg 不够;X 7 kg、Z 10 kg 够。所以是 X 和 Z。 Think: To hold 6 kg, a string must support at least 6 kg. W (5 kg) and Y (3 kg) are not enough. X (7 kg) and Z (10 kg) are. So X and Z only. 小提醒:把每个数和 6 比一比。 Tip: Compare each number with 6.

The graph shows the number of days in each stage of insect V’s life cycle.
How many days does it take for insect V to become an adult from the time the eggs are laid?
A10
B12
C14
D26
看答案和讲解
正确答案:B. 12
考点生命周期:读条形图计算天数 · Life cycles: reading a bar graph to find days
思路:从卵到成虫要经过卵、幼虫、蛹三个阶段:2 + 4 + 6 = 12 天。成虫阶段的 14 天不用算进去。 Think: To become an adult, the insect goes through egg, larva and pupa: 2 + 4 + 6 = 12 days. The 14 days as an adult are not counted. 小提醒:注意“到变成成虫为止”,不包括成虫期。 Tip: “Become an adult” means stop counting when the adult stage begins.

看答案和讲解
正确答案:A. W
考点动物分类:用表格辨认动物(海豚) · Animal groups: using a table to identify a dolphin
思路:海豚会游泳,不产卵(它是哺乳动物,直接生小海豚)。W 只有“会游泳”这一项,最符合海豚。Y 会产卵,所以不是海豚。 Think: A dolphin can swim and does not lay eggs (it is a mammal and gives birth to its young). W only has "can swim", so W fits best. Y lays eggs, so it is not a dolphin. 小提醒:海豚住在水里,但它是哺乳动物,不是鱼。 Tip: A dolphin lives in water but is a mammal, not a fish.

Lindy placed 4 cookies in 4 identical sealed bags in a room as shown below.
In which set-up would mould most likely grow on the cookie first?
ASet-up A
BSet-up B
CSet-up C
DSet-up D
看答案和讲解
正确答案:D. Set-up D
考点霉菌生长需要水分和温暖 · Mould needs moisture and warmth to grow
思路:霉菌生长需要水分、空气、食物和适合的温度。D 的饼干洒了水,水分最多,而且在室温下,所以霉菌最先长出来。B 去掉了水分,C 放在冰箱里太冷,都长得慢。 Think: Mould needs water, air, food and warmth. Set-up D has the most water and is at room temperature, so mould grows there first. 小提醒:湿 + 温暖 = 霉菌长得快。 Tip: Damp and warm = mould grows fast.

Cneed air, food and water
Drespond to changes around them
看答案和讲解
正确答案:D. respond to changes around them
考点生物的特征:对周围变化有反应 · Characteristics of living things: respond to changes
思路:Lena 碰了含羞草,叶子马上合起来。这是植物对“被碰”这个变化作出的反应。 Think: Lena touched the mimosa and its leaves folded up at once. The plant responded to a change (the touch). 小提醒:被碰、遇光、遇热马上有变化,就是“对变化有反应”。 Tip: A quick change after a touch, light or heat means the living thing responds to changes.
