1、交流與發(fā)現(xiàn)為了了解本校學生暑假期間參加體育活動的情況,學校準備抽取一部分學生進行調(diào)查,你認為按下面的調(diào)查方法取得的結果能反映全校學生的一般情況嗎?如果不能反映,應當如何改進調(diào)查方法?方法1:調(diào)查學校田徑隊的30名同學;方法2:調(diào)查每個班的男同學;方法3:從每班抽取1名同學進行調(diào)查;方法4:選取每個班級中的一半學生進行調(diào)查.通過前面的活動,學生親身經(jīng)歷了一次數(shù)據(jù)的調(diào)查過程,并通過對所得數(shù)據(jù)的計算和分析,了解了自己在家干家務活的時間所處的位置和水平,在調(diào)查過程中體會到調(diào)查方便有效的重要性.接下來,就能很好地解決交流與發(fā)現(xiàn)中的問題.師生共同討論完成交流與發(fā)現(xiàn).
當A,C顏色相同時,先染P有4種方法,再染A,C有3種方法,然后染B有2種方法,最后染D也有2種方法.根據(jù)分步乘法計數(shù)原理知,共有4×3×2×2=48(種)方法;當A,C顏色不相同時,先染P有4種方法,再染A有3種方法,然后染C有2種方法,最后染B,D都有1種方法.根據(jù)分步乘法計數(shù)原理知,共有4×3×2×1×1=24(種)方法.綜上,共有48+24=72(種)方法.故選B.答案:B5.某藝術小組有9人,每人至少會鋼琴和小號中的一種樂器,其中7人會鋼琴,3人會小號,從中選出會鋼琴與會小號的各1人,有多少種不同的選法?解:由題意可知,在藝術小組9人中,有且僅有1人既會鋼琴又會小號(把該人記為甲),只會鋼琴的有6人,只會小號的有2人.把從中選出會鋼琴與會小號各1人的方法分為兩類.第1類,甲入選,另1人只需從其他8人中任選1人,故這類選法共8種;第2類,甲不入選,則會鋼琴的只能從6個只會鋼琴的人中選出,有6種不同的選法,會小號的也只能從只會小號的2人中選出,有2種不同的選法,所以這類選法共有6×2=12(種).因此共有8+12=20(種)不同的選法.

Everybody wants to get wealth.In today’s material world,making money or becoming wealthy symbolizes a person’s success and capability. Many people just make every effort, pay any price to attain greater wealth. With money,they can buy nice, large apartments in nice neighborhood. With money they can own luxurious cars. Wealth seems to bring all happiness in life.But is wealth the only road to happiness? Not really. There are many things in the world, which are beyond the means of money, such as friendship, love, health and knowledge. People are so preoccupied with struggling for money that they have no time or would not take the time to form or maintain friendship. What happiness can they feel living as lonely miserable creatures without love or friends in the world even if they accumulate tremendous wealth?In my opinion, people can’t do anything without money, but money is not everything. What money will bring you depends on your personal belief and goal in life. If you are kind enough to help others, especially the poor, money is a good thing to you. With it, you can do much more for the benefit of people and your country, and it will add to your own happiness. If you want money just for your own needs, you’ll never be satisfied or happy. In a word,you should have money spent for more people. Only then can money be the source of your happiness.Step 8 Homework4 students in a group, one acts Roderick, one Oliver, one servant and the fourth one acts Henry Adams, then listen to the tape, pay more attention to the difference between American English and British English in pronunciation, stress, tone.
