Bile is produced in the liver, stored in the gall bladder and neutralises stomach acid to provide an alkaline pH for lipase.
胆汁在肝脏产生、储存在胆囊，能中和胃酸，为脂肪酶提供碱性环境。

The human heart has four chambers: two atria and two ventricles; the left ventricle has a thicker muscular wall to pump blood around the whole body.
人类心脏有四个腔室：两个心房和两个心室；左心室肌肉壁更厚，能将血液泵送至全身。
Double circulation means blood passes through the heart twice in one complete circuit: pulmonary circulation to the lungs and systemic circulation to the rest of the body.
双循环意味着血液在一次完整的循环中两次经过心脏：去往肺部的肺循环和通往全身其他部位的体循环。
Arteries carry blood away from the heart under high pressure and have thick, elastic walls; veins have valves to prevent backflow.
动脉将血液带离心脏，管壁厚且有弹性；静脉内有瓣膜防止血液倒流。
Coronary heart disease can be caused by fatty deposits narrowing the coronary arteries; lifestyle factors such as diet and smoking are key risks.
冠心病可由脂肪沉积使冠状动脉变窄引起；饮食和吸烟等生活方式是关键风险因素。
4. Atomic Structure and the Periodic Table | 原子结构与周期表
Atoms contain protons, neutrons and electrons. The atomic number is the number of protons, which defines the element.
原子包含质子、中子和电子。原子序数等于质子数，它决定了元素的种类。
Electrons are arranged in shells; the first shell holds up to 2 electrons, the second up to 8, the third up to 8.
电子分层排布；第一层最多容纳 2 个，第二层最多 8 个，第三层最多 8 个。
Elements are arranged in the periodic table in order of increasing atomic number. Groups have similar chemical properties because they have the same number of outer electrons.
元素在周期表中按原子序数递增排列。同一族元素因最外层电子数相同而具有相似的化学性质。
Group 1 metals are alkali metals, becoming more reactive down the group; Group 7 are halogens, reactivity decreases down the group.
第 1 族是碱金属，往下反应性增强；第 7 族是卤素，往下反应性减弱。
| Subatomic Particle | Charge | Mass (relative) |
|---|---|---|
| Proton | +1 | 1 |
| Neutron | 0 | 1 |
| Electron | -1 | negligible (1/1836) |
5. Chemical Bonding and Structures | 化学键与结构
Ionic bonding occurs between metals and non-metals, transferring electrons to form oppositely charged ions held by strong electrostatic forces.
离子键形成于金属与非金属之间，通过电子转移形成带相反电荷的离子，离子间靠强静电作用结合。
Ionic compounds have giant lattice structures, high melting and boiling points, and conduct electricity when molten or dissolved in water.
离子化合物具有巨型晶格结构，熔沸点高，在熔融或溶于水时导电。
Covalent bonding involves sharing of electrons between non-metal atoms. Simple molecular substances like water have low melting points and do not conduct electricity.
共价键涉及非金属原子间共享电子对。像水这样的简单分子物质熔沸点低，且不导电。
Diamond and graphite are giant covalent structures. Diamond is very hard and an electrical insulator; graphite conducts electricity due to delocalised electrons between layers.
金刚石和石墨是巨型共价结构。金刚石极硬且绝缘；石墨因层间离域电子而导电。
6. Mole Calculations and Quantitative Chemistry | 摩尔计算与定量化学
The mole is the unit for amount of substance; one mole contains 6.02 × 10²³ particles (Avogadro’s number).
摩尔是物质的量的单位；1 摩尔含有 6.02×10²³ 个粒子（阿伏伽德罗常数）。
number of moles = mass (g) ÷ molar mass (g/mol)
摩尔数计算公式：摩尔数 = 质量（克）÷ 摩尔质量（克/摩尔）。
concentration (mol/dm³) = number of moles ÷ volume (dm³)
浓度计算公式：浓度(mol/dm³) = 摩尔数 ÷ 体积(dm³)。
Percentage yield = (actual yield ÷ theoretical yield) × 100%. Atom economy = (mass of desired product ÷ total mass of reactants) × 100%.
产率 = (实际产量 ÷ 理论产量) × 100%。原子经济性 = (预期产物的质量 ÷ 反应物总质量) × 100%。
7. Rates of Reaction and Energy Changes | 反应速率与能量变化
Rate of reaction can be measured by the change in mass of the reaction mixture, volume of gas produced, or colour change over time.
反应速率可通过反应体系的质量变化、产生气体的体积或颜色变化随时间测定。
Collision theory states that for a reaction to occur, particles must collide with sufficient energy (activation energy) and correct orientation.
碰撞理论说明，发生反应需要粒子以足够的能量（活化能）和正确的取向发生碰撞。
Factors increasing reaction rate: higher concentration, higher temperature, larger surface area of solids, and the use of a catalyst.
提高反应速率的因素：更高的浓度、更高的温度、更大的固体表面积以及使用催化剂。
Exothermic reactions transfer heat to the surroundings (temperature rises); endothermic reactions absorb heat (temperature drops). Reaction profiles show the energy change.
放热反应向环境释放热量（温度升高）；吸热反应从环境吸收热量（温度下降）。反应能量图展示能量变化。
8. Forces and Motion | 力与运动
In a distance-time graph, the gradient equals the speed. A horizontal line means the object is stationary.
在距离-时间图中，斜率等于速度。水平线表示物体静止。
In a velocity-time graph, the gradient gives the acceleration; the area under the graph represents the distance travelled.

F = ma
牛顿第二定律：合力 (F) = 质量 (m) × 加速度 (a)。
Thinking distance + braking distance = stopping distance. These are affected by speed, driver’s reaction time, and road/tyre conditions.
