Text #1. "GREEN ROOFS"

In metropolitan areas where a lot of natural space is given over to building, green roofing is an ideal solution to compensate for the damage caused to nature. This method of roof arrangement has become especially relevant given the fact that the cost per square meter of land is extremely high, and the use of free roof space made it possible to fill the deficit of green areas, arrange places for recreation and leisure on the roofs of buildings.

Roof greening is a term that refers to the roofs of buildings partially or completely planted with living plants.

Assyria and Babylon are considered the birthplace of "green roofs" (2500 years ago). But the most famous, of course, are the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, known as the seventh wonder of the world.

Today, the leaders in growing green crops on rooftops are the UK, USA, Germany and Switzerland.

Creating green roofs is beneficial for several reasons:

1.Green roofs filter the air, fighting various pollutants, including CO2 (carbon dioxide).

2.Vegetation and soil provide good sound insulation.

3.Green roofs accumulate storm water, it can be cleaned and used in everyday life.

4.Green roofs filter out heavy metals and other pollutants from rainwater.

5. The presence of green roofs increases the number of wildlife in the built-up urban area.

However, despite the fact that the difficult environmental situation in Kazakhstan requires concern for the cleanliness of the environment, which directly affects the health of citizens, the idea of green roofs is not being developed in the republic, referring to climatic conditions.

In our hometown of Karaganda today there are only 7 parks and 28 squares and boulevards. With a population of 453,000, each inhabitant has 6.4 square meters of public green spaces, which is only 40% of the regulatory recommendations. Where is the exit? ( The text was compiled on the basis of the research work "Green Roofs" of the teacher of geography of the school No. 37 of the city of Karaganda Rogozina T.G.)

Task number 1

Based on the text, answer why green roofs have become relevant in the modern world?

Criteria for evaluation:

This task is to search for information in the text. The correct answer is in the first sentence. If the student answers correctly (substitution of words that do not distort the meaning of the phrase is allowed), he receives 1 point for the answer.

If the answer is incorrect - 0 points.

Task number 2

Complete the table using information from the text. Put a "+" sign in the column with the correct answer.

			No information

Criteria for evaluation:

The table is filled out correctly, but the graph is incorrectly built - 1 point.

There are 1-2 errors in the table (which means that the graph is built incorrectly) -

More than 2 errors in the table (the graph is built incorrectly) - 0 points.

Task number 5

Do you agree that "green roofs" are sometimes referred to as the "fifth façade" of a building? Justify your answer.

Answer______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Criteria for evaluation:

The student agrees with this statement, and then argues his answer in 3-4 sentences. The answer must contain keywords or words synonymous with them: facade, building, front part, external side, architecture, decor, purpose, image.

If the answer does not contain any of the keywords - 0 points.

If the student does not agree with this statement - 0 points.

Option 1

Manka

At the beginning of winter, when the northern winds blew and a sharp snow fell, I decided to make a bird feeder in the country. On a bright veranda right outside the window on a wooden shelf, where we put indoor flowers on warm days, I organized a “bird dining room”. He poured seeds, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, even put a sprig of scarlet mountain ash ... An excellent “menu” turned out. The feathered guests must arrive. Nimble tits, sedate bullfinches, noisy waxwings, nuthatchers... And other inhabitants of the garden, whom I don't remember. In general, began to wait. And a day passes, and two ... Something my guests do not show up. Migrated to another garden, or what? Where the owner is more hospitable, more friendly, probably. I was sad to look at my frozen gifts. It seems like he tried in vain ... And then suddenly the frost hit. Just like christening. You can hear the trees crackling in the garden in the middle of the night.

I wake up one morning. I go out to the veranda. I look, and behind the cloudy frosty glass a light flickered. Smoky red. Like a candle on a Christmas tree. Cautiously, he crept up to the window. He got up on tiptoe, looked out of the corner of his eye and ... was stunned. Squirrel! Came running, apparently, from a nearby grove. She climbed up the trunk of a birch, and she was nearby, at a stone's throw to the veranda, and jumped into the feeder. Hunger is not an aunt. Instantly emptied the "tablecloth". And looks out the window with currant eyes. Waiting, probably, if the compassionate owner does not put something else. I had to shell out. Fill the feeder with "squirrel treats": nuts, chopped apple, dry mushrooms - well, a bunch has remained since autumn.

Now the squirrel every morning - at least check the clock - was waiting for me near the feeder. I even gave her a name. Named Manka. And she willingly responded to him. She took a treat right from the palm of her hand.

And so my long winter flew by in friendship with the forest beauty. And in the spring, when the icicles became long and “weepy” and the sun blinded her eyes, spreading over blue snowdrifts, the wife somehow warmly, but with firmness in her voice, said:

You don't have to train the squirrel anymore. She will forget how to get food herself, become a beggar and may die ...

Although I felt sorry for Manka, I still obeyed my wife. She was a biologist. And she knew a lot about her science.

Foundling

The boys ruined the heater's nest, broke her testicles. Naked, blind chicks fell out of broken shells. Only one of the six testicles I managed to take away from the boys whole.

I decided to save the nestling hidden in it.

But how to do that?

Who will bring him out of the egg?

Who will feed?

I knew nearby the nest of another bird, the chiffchaff. She just laid her fourth testicle.

But will the mockery accept a foundling? The wheatear egg is pure blue. It is larger and does not look like mocking testicles at all: they are pink with black dots. And what will happen to the wheatear chick? After all, he is about to emerge from the egg, and little chuckles will hatch out only in another twelve days.

Will mockery feed a foundling?

The mocking nest was placed on a birch so low that I could reach it with my hand.

When I approached the birch, the chuckle flew off the nest.

She fluttered along the branches of neighboring trees and whistled plaintively, as if begging not to touch her nests.

I put a blue egg to her raspberry ones, walked away and hid behind a bush. The mingling did not return to the nest for a long time. And when she finally flew up, she did not immediately sit down in it: it was clear that she was looking at someone else's blue egg with distrust.

But still, she sat in the nest. So, she took someone else's egg. The foundling became a foster child.

But what will happen tomorrow when the little wheatear hatches from the egg? When the next morning I went up to the birch, a spout stuck out on one side of the nest, and on the other, a laughing tail.

When she flew off, I looked into the nest. There were four pink testicles and next to them - a naked blind chick of a wheatear.

I hid and soon saw how a mocking caterpillar in its beak flew in and put it in the mouth of a little wheatear.

Now I was already almost sure that the mocking

feed my foundling.

Six days have passed. Every day I approached the nest and every time I saw the beak and tail of the mockingbird sticking out of the nest. I was very surprised how she keeps up and feed the heater and hatch

their eggs.

I quickly moved away so as not to interfere with her

in this important matter.

On the seventh day, neither the beak nor the tail stuck out above the nest. I thought." "It's all over! The mocking left the nest. The little wheatear died of hunger." But no - there was a living wheatear in the nest! She was sleeping and did not even pull her head up, did not open her mouth: it means she was full. these days, which covered with its little body the pink testicles that were barely visible from under it.

Then I guessed that the adopted child thanked his new mother: with the warmth of his body, he warmed her testicles - hatched her chicks.

So it was. Mocking fed the adopted child, the adopted child hatched her chicks.

He grew up and flew out of the nest in front of my eyes.

And just by this time, the chicks hatched from pink eggs. Mocking began to feed her own chicks - and fed them well.

Grade 8, section "Health"

1. Theme "Chemical burns"

Read the text carefully and use the information in the text to answer the questions.

Chemical burns are a common result of carelessness when working with reagents in the laboratory, in chemistry classes, at home. The mechanism of action of acids and alkalis lies mainly in their effect on cellular proteins. Under the influence of acids, dry, strictly limited scabs of a yellow-brown color and even black color appear on the skin; alkalis cause the formation of grayish weeping scabs, not sharply limited. Knowledge of the external picture of chemical burns is necessary because first aid for burns caused by acids differs from first aid for burns caused by alkalis.

First aid. First, the affected area of the burn is freed from clothing. At the same time, the assisting person must ensure that he himself does not burn himself with acid or alkali. Then the places affected by acid are poured over with a strong stream of water, a 3% solution of baking soda or soapy water. After washing, the burn surfaces are covered with baking soda powder or bandaged with clean gauze or a bandage.

The rate of synthesis of organic substances in the cell is constantly changing depending on the situation. In the morning and afternoon, the process of photosynthesis, as a rule, is carried out more slowly than in the evening. On a sunny day, synthesis proceeds faster than on a cloudy day. The system of self-regulation of protein biosynthesis also works in the cell. This takes into account the need of the cell in this organic compound at the moment.

VI . Evaluation Cmake a booklet about the 5 most important functions of the cell. Justify your choice.

Important macronutrient

Potassium is found in all tissues of the human body. But, unlike sodium, potassium predominates inside the cells in a predominant amount. The potassium ion plays an important role in some physiological and biochemical processes, for example, it is involved in the conduction of nerve impulses. A certain concentration of potassium in the blood is necessary for the normal functioning of the heart (3.5-5.0 mmol / l). Potassium enters the body mainly with plant foods; the daily requirement for it is 2-3 grams.

Question 1: Sergey leads a healthy lifestyle. Runs in the park in the morning. Sergey has no bad habits.
