1. Cells and Organisation | 细胞与组织
All living organisms are made of cells. Animal cells contain a nucleus, cytoplasm, cell membrane, and mitochondria. Plant cells share these structures but also have a rigid cell wall, chloroplasts for photosynthesis, and a large permanent vacuole.
所有生物都由细胞构成。动物细胞包含细胞核、细胞质、细胞膜和线粒体。植物细胞除了这些结构，还有坚硬的细胞壁、进行光合作用的叶绿体和一个大型永久液泡。
Specialised cells are adapted to perform specific functions. For example, red blood cells are biconcave and lack a nucleus to maximise oxygen-carrying capacity, while root hair cells have long extensions to absorb water and minerals efficiently.
特化细胞适应执行特定功能。例如，红细胞呈双凹形且无细胞核，以最大化携氧能力；根毛细胞有长长的突起，可高效吸收水分和矿物质。
In multicellular organisms, cells group together to form tissues, tissues form organs, and organs work together in organ systems. The digestive system, with organs like the stomach and intestines, breaks down food for absorption.
在多细胞生物中，细胞组合成组织，组织形成器官，器官在器官系统中协同工作。消化系统包含胃和肠等器官，分解食物以供吸收。
2. States of Matter | 物质的状态
Matter exists as solid, liquid, or gas. Solids have a fixed shape and volume because particles are tightly packed in a regular arrangement and only vibrate. Liquids have a fixed volume but take the shape of their container; particles are close but can move past each other. Gases have no fixed shape or volume and particles move freely at high speed.
物质以固态、液态或气态存在。固体有固定的形状和体积，因为粒子紧密排列成规则结构且仅振动。液体有固定体积，但形状随容器改变；粒子紧密但可以相对滑动。气体没有固定的形状和体积，粒子高速自由运动。
Changes of state—melting, freezing, boiling, condensing, sublimation—involve energy transfer without changing temperature. The substance's mass is conserved during these physical changes.
状态变化——熔化、凝固、沸腾、冷凝、升华——涉及能量传递而温度不变。在这些物理变化中，物质的质量守恒。
The particle model explains diffusion: particles move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Diffusion is faster in gases and at higher temperatures.
粒子模型可解释扩散：粒子从高浓度区域向低浓度区域移动。在气体中和较高温度下，扩散更快。
3. Atomic Structure | 原子结构
Atoms are the building blocks of all matter. They consist of a nucleus containing protons (positive charge) and neutrons (no charge), surrounded by electrons (negative charge) arranged in shells. The number of protons defines the element (atomic number).
原子是所有物质的构建模块。它们由包含质子（正电荷）和中子（不带电荷）的原子核，以及围绕原子核排布在电子层中的电子（负电荷）组成。质子数决定了元素（原子序数）。
An atom is neutral overall because the number of protons equals the number of electrons. Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons, hence different mass numbers.
原子整体呈电中性，因为质子数等于电子数。同位素是同种元素中中子数不同的原子，因此质量数不同。
ron ≈ 1, electron ≈ 1/1840. Almost all the mass of an atom is concentrated in the nucleus.
相对质量：质子≈1，中子≈1，电子≈1/1840。原子的几乎全部质量都集中在原子核上。
4. The Periodic Table | 元素周期表
Elements are arranged in the Periodic Table by increasing atomic number. Vertical columns are called groups; elements in the same group have similar chemical properties because they have the same number of electrons in their outer shell.
元素在周期表中按原子序数递增排列。纵列称为族；同一族元素具有相似的化学性质，因为它们最外层电子数相同。
Group 1 (alkali metals) are soft, highly reactive metals that react vigorously with water to form alkaline solutions and hydrogen gas. Group 7 (halogens) are non-metals that form salts with metals. Group 0 (noble gases) are unreactive due to having full outer shells.
第1族（碱金属）是质地软、反应性极高的金属，与水剧烈反应生成碱性溶液和氢气。第7族（卤素）是非金属，与金属形成盐。第0族（稀有气体）由于具有满电子外层而化学性质不活泼。
Periods are horizontal rows. As you move across a period, the atomic number increases, and properties gradually change from metallic to non-metallic.
周期是横行。沿周期从左到右，原子序数增大，性质从金属性逐渐变为非金属性。
5. Chemical Reactions | 化学反应
In a chemical reaction, atoms are rearranged to form new substances. The total mass remains the same (conservation of mass). Word equations and symbol equations represent these changes.
在化学反应中，原子重新排列形成新物质。总质量保持不变（质量守恒）。文字方程式和符号方程式表示这些变化。
o produce a salt and hydrogen gas. The general word equation: metal + acid → salt + hydrogen.
常见的反应类型包括燃烧（在氧气中燃烧）、氧化、热分解和置换反应。酸与金属反应生成盐和氢气。一般文字方程式：金属 + 酸 → 盐 + 氢气。
he number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides. For example: 2Mg + O₂ → 2MgO
配平符号方程式确保每种元素的原子在两边相等。例如：2Mg + O₂ → 2MgO
6. Acids and Alkalis | 酸与碱
Acids release hydrogen ions (H⁺) in water and have a pH less than 7. Common acids include hydrochloric acid (HCl), sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄), and nitric acid (HNO₃). Alkalis release hydroxide ions (OH⁻) and have a pH greater than 7.
酸在水中释放氢离子 (H⁺)，pH 值小于 7。常见酸包括盐酸 (HCl)、硫酸 (H₂SO₄) 和硝酸 (HNO₃)。碱释放氢氧根离子 (OH⁻)，pH 值大于 7。
s a measure of acidity/alkalinity; indicators like litmus change colour (red in acid, blue in alkali).
酸与碱发生中和反应生成盐和水：H⁺ + OH⁻ → H₂O。pH 值标度衡量酸性/碱性；指示剂如石蕊试纸会变色（酸中变红，碱中变蓝）。
Making a soluble salt involves reacting an acid with an insoluble base, such as a metal oxide, and then crystallising the product.
制备可溶性盐涉及酸与不溶性碱（如金属氧化物）反应，然后通过结晶得到产物。
7. Forces and Motion | 力与运动
Forces can change the speed, direction, or shape of an object. They are measured in newtons (N). Contact forces include friction, air resistance, and tension; non-contact forces include gravity, magnetism, and electrostatic force.
力可以改变物体的速度、方向或形状。力以牛顿 (N) 为单位。接触力包括摩擦力、空气阻力和张力；非接触力包括重力、磁力和静电引力。
If forces on an object are balanced, the object remains at rest or moves at a constant speed. Unbalanced forces cause acceleration (or deceleration). Newton's first law describes this behaviour.
如果作用在物体上的力平衡，物体保持静止或匀速运动。非平衡力导致加速（或减速）。牛顿第一定律描述了这一行为。
Speed is calculated as distance divided by time. The formula is:
速度等于距离除以时间。公式为：
speed = distance ÷ time
On a distance–time graph, a straight sloping line shows constant speed; a horizontal line shows the object is stationary.
在距离-时间图中，倾斜直线表示匀速；水平线表示物体静止。
8. Energy | 能量
Energy exists in different stores: kinetic, gravitational potential, elastic potential, thermal, chemical, nuclear, magnetic, and electrostatic. Energy can be transferred between stores by heating, doing work (mechanically), or by waves (light, sound).
能量存在于不同的储存类型中：动能、重力势能、弹性势能、热能、化学能、核能、磁能和静电能量。能量可以通过加热、做功（机械方式）或波（光、声音）在储存类型之间转移。
Energy is conserved: the total energy before a change equals the total energy after. However, some energy is often dissipated as thermal energy, wasting it. Reducing unwanted energy transfers (e.g., using insulation) improves efficiency.
能量守恒：变化前的总能量等于变化后的总能量。然而，部分能量常以热能形式耗散，成为浪费。减少不必要的能量转移（例如使用绝缘材料）可提高效率。
using the heat to warm water. Power is the rate of energy transfer: power = energy ÷ time.
食物和燃料储存化学能。释放的能量可通过燃烧它们并用水吸热来测量。功率是能量转移的速率：功率 = 能量 ÷ 时间。
9. Electricity | 电学
Electric current is the flow of electric charge. In metals, the charge carriers are free electrons. Current (I) is measured in amperes (A). For current to flow, a circuit must be complete and have a source of potential difference (voltage).
电流是电荷的流动。在金属中，电荷载体是自由电子。电流 (I) 以安培 (A) 为单位。电流要流动，电路必须闭合，并有电位差（电压）源。
tance (R) is measured in ohms (Ω) and opposes the flow of current. The relationship is Ohm's law: V = I × R.
电位差 (V) 以伏特 (V) 为单位，是每单位电荷转移的能量。电阻 (R) 以欧姆 (Ω) 为单位，阻碍电流流动。关系式为欧姆定律：V = I × R。
In a series circuit, current is the same everywhere and the total resistance is the sum of individual resistances. In a parallel circuit, the current splits and the total resistance is less than the smallest branch resistance.
在串联电路中，各处电流相等，总电阻为各电阻之和。在并联电路中，电流分流，总电阻小于最小支路电阻。
10. Ecosystems and Interdependence | 生态系统与相互依存
ght. A food chain shows the feeding relationships: producer → primary consumer → secondary consumer.
生态系统包括生活在某一区域的所有生物及其物理环境。生物争夺食物、水和光照等资源。食物链显示摄食关系：生产者 → 初级消费者 → 次级消费者。
ygen, using light energy. The word equation is: carbon dioxide + water → glucose + oxygen.
植物是生产者，通过光合作用制造食物：二氧化碳 + 水 → 葡萄糖 + 氧气，利用光能。文字方程式：二氧化碳 + 水 → 葡萄糖 + 氧气。
Predators and prey populations are interdependent. Changes in one population affect others. Toxic materials can accumulate along food chains (bioaccumulation), harming top predators.
捕食者和猎物种群相互依存。一种种群的变化会影响其他种群。有毒物质会沿食物链积累（生物富集），危害
