Tapescript
Our annual Science Festival is coming up next month! As members of the Science Club, you should write a plan for the Science Festival. First, let me explain the aim of the festival and the events we’ll have.
We started the Science Festival three years ago. It aims to encourage students to take an interest in science and develop skills that may help them in their future lives.
The Science Festival will last three days. The first and most important thing you need to do is to think of a theme for this year’s festival. All events will be centred around the theme you decide on. For the first event, we’ll invite a well-known scientist to give a lecture. Think about who you’d like us to
invite, when and where the lecture will be given, and a topic that students might be interested in. Then we’ll have a Science Workshop, where students can try different experiments.
So, you should also come up with ideas for experiments that could be done, including what equipment and materials
would be needed. Finally, there’ll be a huge Science Fair. Each class can design some activities and decorate their classroom, and you should give some suggestions on how to do these in your plan.
Please send me your plan by this Friday. Next week we’ll make a final decision on this year’s theme and events. Thank you!

Theme: Materials Physics
Does this sound a little bit remote from our daily lives Wrong. Think about smartphone touchscreens and the fibre optics used in telecommunications. In fact, we use these every day, and they were made real thanks to breakthroughs in materials physics.
n. 突破,重大进展
Events:
1. A lecture by Professor Wang
On Monday morning, Professor Wang will give a lecture about chemically strengthened glass, which is used as a cover for many portable devices. The lecture will be held in the school hall.
2. Science Workshop
There will be a Science Workshop on Tuesday. Students can try to make their own materials in our laboratories. We will provide many raw materials and lots of different equipment. Students will be able to find out what new materials they can make and what features their materials will have.
3. Science Fair
The Science Fair will be on Wednesday. Every class will prepare a display on the new materials students have created. Students should think of how their new materials can be used and
how they can change people’s
lives. This event will encourage
them to be bold and creative.
