One night, I wondered what it would be like if I only asked questions. I decided that no matter what anyone said to me the next day, I would reply only with   36  .

I loved to read about scientists and their discoveries, and I knew that scientists always started their research with a question. I hoped that I could become a scientist. Maybe by asking questions, I could train my mind to be   37  .

  I survived the morning easily. “Is there any egg?” I answered when my mother asked what I wanted for breakfast. “Is this seat taken?” I asked when my friend Mike asked where he was going to   38   on the bus.

In the classroom, Mr. Black spoke slowly and clearly while I listened carefully. The problem had been part of my homework the night before. I wrote the answer on the board, “Could the answer be 361?”

  Mr. Black smiled and nodded. I thought,“How did I   39   to get through that?” I almost laughed because asking questions really was starting to become a   40  .

  I thought I had made it safely through the whole day,   41   what I had come to consider my experiment blew up at the dinner table when my dad asked me about my day. “What do I always do?” I replied.

My parents looked at each other. My father   42   again. “Well, I hope you went to school,” he said.

    “Uhhh … why would you think otherwise?” I asked. My parents exchanged another   43    

and were becoming annoyed.

   “Do you think questions are a good way to train your mind to be active?” I asked.

“It   44   the question,” said my father. “Some questions are asked for   45   information. Those are good mind-training questions. Sometimes, people use questions to get the other person to say something. Sometimes people ask questions to get someone to agree with them. Those questions don’t really achieve anything.”

   “I guess my experiment didn’t work,” I said, and I told my father about my   46  .

“I think it worked   47  !” my father said. “You made a discovery, didn’t you? What matters is that you have put your idea into practice.”

One of my favourite things to do is hiking in mountains. Because nobody likes the idea of getting lost, I always prepare before every trip. But what’s the best navigation tool, a Global Positioning System (GPS) or a good old map and compass? Five of my friends and I hiked through the mountains on a trail I marked. One team of three carried a GPS, and the other team used a map and compass.

It took the GPS team 3 hours and 11 minutes to get through the whole hike, however, it took the map and compass team only 2 hours and 49 minutes. The biggest problem the GPS team met was that they lost the satellite signal (衛星信號) in some places. With no map or compass, they had to walk around until they were in a place where the signal was good. The map and compass team was able to spot (認出) different landmarks, compare them to their maps and then use the compass to point them in the right direction.

When I head out on my future hikes, I’m bringing a map, a compass and a GPS to show me the way.
