Box 1:DependThe kind of clothes that Craig should wear tomorrow will depend on the weather outside.Craig根據明天外面的天氣決定要穿的衣服What does depend mean in the sentence above?在這句子中根據的意思是？To be based on something基於某些事情When there is no reason for something當某事是沒有任何理由To be told to do something被告知應該做某事Box 3:To depend means to be based on something. For example, what you wear to school depends on the weather. That means that the weather will determine what you wear. If it is raining, you will most likely wear a raincoat and maybe some boots.依據意即基於某些事物。舉例來說，你根據天氣穿衣服去上學。這意思是天氣將決定你穿什麼。假如下雨，你可能穿上雨衣和靴子。You depend on what you know whenever you do something. For example, you depend on what you know about plants if you want to make a garden. Other people depend on information too. People who report the weather depend on information they get from weather stations all over the world.你根據你所知道的做事。舉例來說，假如你想要有花園，你會根據你所知道的植物而決定花園。其他人們也根據訊息。氣象報告的人是根據他們從世界各地來的氣象站資訊而報導。Box 5:How much sand you can fit in a pail depends on what?有多少的沙你可以放進桶子中，是根據什麼？A The color of the sand沙子顏色B The size of the pail桶子大小C The weight of the pail

As part of the lesson, the teacher spoke about phase changes.Armani的課堂正在學習有關固體、液體和氣體。這些是課程中的一部分而老師將講解有關於相變化的課程。What is a phase change in this case?課程中的階段變化是什麼？When a solid, liquid, or gas changes form當固體、液體和氣體改變型態When a solid, liquid, or gas disappears當固體、液體和氣體消失時When a solid, liquid, or gas explodes當固體、液體和氣體爆炸時Box 3:When a solid, liquid, or gas changes form, we say that it has gone through a phase change. You probably know the phase changes of water. When ice melts, the water in the ice changes from a solid phase to a liquid phase. If you freeze the water again, it will change from a liquid back into a solid. If you boil the water instead, it will change from a liquid to a gas (steam).當固體、液體或氣體改變成不同的形式，我們說它已經經歷過相變化的過程。你可能知道水的相變化。當冰塊融化時，冰塊中的水會從固態相變成液態相。假如你再度冰凍這些水，它將從液體變回固體。假如你讓水沸騰，它將會從液體變成氣體。
