当然英语的“八大时态”也很重要，它也是学好英语的最基本。以下是“八大时态”的简介。

1.为什么星星会一闪一闪的？
我们看到星光闪闪，这不是因为星星本身的光度出现变化，而是与大气的遮挡有关。
大气隔在我们与星星之间，当星光通过大气层时，会受到大气的密度和厚薄影响。大气不是绝对的透明，它的透明度会根据密度的不同而产生变化。所以我们在地面透过它来看星星，就会看到星星好像在闪动的样子了。
2.为什么向日葵总是朝着太阳开花？
向日葵花盘下面茎部的地方，含有一种叫做“植物生长素”的物质。这物质有加速繁殖的功用，但却具有厌旋光性，每遇到光线时，便会跑到背光的一面去。
所以太阳升起时，向日葵茎部便马上躲到背光的一面去，看起来整棵植物就向着太阳的方向弯曲了。
3为什么人老了头发便会变白？
我们的头发中有一种叫“黑色素”的物质，黑色素越多头发的颜色便越黑。而黑色素少的话，头发便会发黄或变白。人类到了老年时，身体的各种机能会逐渐衰退，色素的形成亦会越来越少，所以头发也会渐渐变白啊！
4.为什么萤火虫会发光？
萤火虫会发光因为在它们的腹部末端有发光器，发光器内充满许多含磷的发光质及发光酵素，使萤火虫能发出一闪一闪的光。

Ever since they were first put on the market in the early 1990s, gentically mondified (GM， 转基因) foods have been increasingly developed and marketed in many countries in the word,mainly on the basis of their promise to end the worldwide food crisis. But can GM technology solve world hunger problems? Even if it would ,is it the best solutiorr? Despite what it promiises,GM technology actually has not increased the production potential of any corp. In fact Studies show that the most crown GM croo. GM soybeans, has suffered reduced productivity. For instance, a report than analysed nearly two decades of research on mojor GM food crops shows that GM engineering has failed to significantly increase US crop production. Something else, however, has been on the rise, While GM seeds are expensive, GM companics tell farmers that they will make good profits by saving money on pesticides（杀虫剂）. On the contrary, US government data show that GM crops in the US have produced an overall increase in pesticide use compared to traditional crops. “ The promise was that you could use less chemicals and boost production. But nether is true,” said Bill Christison, President of the US National Farm Coalition. At the same time, the authors of the book World Hunger: Twelve Myths argue that there actually is more than enough food in the world and that the hunger crisis is not caused by production, but by problems in food distribution and politics. These indeed deserve our efforts and money. Meanwhile, the rise in food prices results from the increased use of crops for fuel rather than food, according to a 2008 World Bank report. As a matter of fact ,scientists see better ways to feed the world. Another World Bank report concluded that GM crops have little to offer to the challenges of worldwide poverty and hunger, because better ways out are available, among which “green” farming is supposed to be the first choice.。

7.英语小知识
英语小知识（1）:
英语的起源
英语的起源要追溯到公元5世纪的古英语，它是其最早的雏形。一向到15世纪才有了标点符号。我们仍然在使用的“城镇”（town），是延续至今的最古老的古英语单词。
英语小知识（2）:
同一个单词，不一样的意思
你可能明白“电臀舞”（twerk）这个单词是指一种很流行的摇摆舞蹈。但在16世纪时，“twirk”（当时中间字母的拼写为i而不是e）是指“急促扭转的一种动作”。提到“电臀舞”，有一些与之相关的现代词汇和俚语，你就应有所了解。
英语小知识（3）:
字典里的新词
每两个小时就会有一个新词被收入字典之中。其中包括“nerdjacking”（用很详细的解释来引导谈话）、“undorse”（扭转政策局面）和“Mx”（代替先生（Mr。）或女士（Ms。）的一种中性称谓）。
英语小知识（4）:
OK的来历
Okay可能是除了Yes,No以外在世界上流传最广的英语单词了。但是，它从何而来呢？历来，语言学家们各执一词。
有人说，okay是印第安人发明的。有这样一个印第安部落叫Chocktaw，居住在富饶的密西西比山谷中，以种植和捕鱼为生。
每当有问题发生，Chocktaw的领导人们就和部落首领围坐一圈，共同商议，如果有人同意其他人的意见，就点头示意，然后说“Okeh”，意思为“就是这样”。
欧洲人初到美洲时，听到了超多的印第安语，并将之发展为英语词汇。此刻美国的许多城市、河流、山脉，其名称都源于印第安语。
另外还有一种颇具可信度的说法：Okay这个词是在19世纪由一个政治团体发明的。
有一个人叫Martin Van Buren，准备参加总统竞选，他的拥护者成立了一个俱乐部为他做宣传，俱乐部的名称就叫“Okay Club”，据说O和K两个字母取自于Van Buren的故乡，纽约州的Old Kinderhook，那是他出生的地方。
对一个如此popular的词汇，自然每个人都可能有自我的故事，但是，有一点，相信全世界都会同意：okay是一个纯粹的美语词汇，它是词汇跨越不一样语言的优秀典范。
只是还有需要小小提醒一下的地方：okay通常用于口语，在书面语中，我们能够用agree,assent,approve,conform等等词汇来代替，使之更为正式化。

10.求科普英语文章
My grandmother became a widow in 1970. Shortly after that, we went to the animal shelter to pick out a puppy to keep her company. Grandma decided on a little terrier that had a reddish-brown spot above each eye. Because of these spots, the dog was promptly named Penny.Grandma and Penny quickly became very attached to each other, but that attachment grew much stronger about three years later when Grandma had a stroke. Grandma could no longer work, so when she came home from the hospital, she and Penny were constant companions.After her stroke, it became a real problem for Grandma to let Penny in and out because the door was at the bottom of a flight of stairs. So a mechanism using a rope and pulley was installed from the back door to a handle at the top of the stairs. Grandma just had to pull the handle to open and close the door. If the store was out of Penny's favorite dog food, Grandma would make one of us cook Penny browned beef with diced potatoes in it. I can remember teasing my grandmother that she loved that dog better than she loved her family.As the years passed, Grandma and Penny became inseparable. Grandma's old house could be filled to the brim with people, but if Grandma went to take her nap, Penny walked along beside her and stayed by her side until she awoke. As Penny aged, she could no longer jump up on the bed to lay next to Grandma, so she laid on the rug beside the bed. If Grandma went into the bathroom, Penny would hobble along beside her, wait outside the door and accompany her back to the bed or chair. Grandma never went anywhere without her faithful companion by her side.The time came when both my grandmother and Penny's health were failing fast. Penny couldn't get around very well, and Grandma had been hospitalized several times. My uncle and I lived with Grandma, so Penny was never left alone, even when Grandma was in the hospital. During these times, Penny sat at the window looking out for the car bringing Grandma home and would excitedly wait at the door when Grandma came through it. Each homecoming was a grand reunion between the two.On Christmas Day in 1985, Grandma was again taken to the hospital. Penny, as usual, sat watching out the window for the car bringing Grandma home. Two mornings later when the dog woke up, she couldn't seem to work out the stiffness in her hips as she usually did. The same morning, she began having seizures. At age fifteen, we knew it was time. My mother and aunt took her to the veterinarian and stayed with her until the end.Now the big dilemma was whether to tell Grandma while she was still in the hospital or wait. The decision was made to tell her while she was in the hospital because when we pulled up at the house, the first thing Grandma would look for was her beloved Penny watching out the window and then happily greeting her at the door. Grandma shed some tears but said she knew that it had to be done so Penny wouldn't suffer.That night while still in the hospital, Grandma had a massive heart attack. The doctors frantically worked on her but could not revive her. After fifteen years of loving companionship, Grandma and Penny passed away within a few hours of each other.
