Here are six steps to better studying.
Pay attention in class
Do you have trouble paying attention in class? Are you sitting next to a loud person? Tell your teacher or parents about any problem that is preventing you from paying attention.
Take good notes
Write down facts that your teacher mentions or writes on the board. Try to use good handwriting so you can read your notes later. It’s a good idea to keep your notes organized by subject.
Plan ahead for tests and projects
Waiting until Thursday night to study for Friday’s test will make it hard to do your best. One of the best ways to make sure that doesn’t happen is to plan ahead. Write down your test dates. You can then plan how much to do after school each day, and how much time to spend on each topic.
Break it up
When there’s a lot to study, it can help to break things into several parts. Let’s say you have a spelling test on 20 words. Instead of thinking about all of the words at once, try breaking them down into five-word groups and work on one or two different groups each night.
Ask for help
You can’t study effectively if you don’t understand the material. Be sure to ask your teacher for help. If you’re at home when the confusion occurs, your morn or dad might be able to help.
Sleep tight
So the test is tomorrow and you’ve followed your study plan—but suddenly you can’t remember anything! Don’t panic. Your brain needs time to digest all the information you’ve given it. Try to get a good night’s sleep and you’ll be surprised by what comes back to you in the morning.
小题1:We know from the passage that a loud person is .| A．a student who always answers questions loudly in class | | B．someone who likes to talk with others in a loud voice | | C．a student who likes speaking with others in class | | D．a person who makes a lot of noise in public places |

Little Mark is only 6, but he has an IQ of 200, a genius among geniuses. But his intelligence comes at a cost. His parents must keep him intellectually simulated（启发）while making sure he is like any other little boy.
Mark has been attracted by the way how the world works since he was a baby. When he was 3, Mark was reading fluently, mostly self-taught. His parents haven"t been able to keep him away from books since.
"I tried many times to stop him reading. We worry about his crazy fond of reading because he constantly wants to read every-thing whatever it is.”
A psychologist at the Centre for gifted children tested Mark and gave him an IQ of 200. The average child of Mark"s age has an IQ of 100. At 200, Mark is a genius-even compared with other child geniuses.
"With children like Mark you can tell that"s a bright child as soon as they walk in. They just have this sort of intensity, and maybe they"re not so good at communicating with people," the psychologist said. "He will never fit perfectly into a class where he"s with children of his age.”But Mark"s mother worries about the "socially isolated" labels. "Nobody wants their child to grow up with that image. I want him to communicate with others freely, but not to be frustrated academically, so it"s really hard to find a balance," she says.
Helen Dudeney from the Talented and Gifted Children Association says Mark is one in a million with such a high IQ. She points out that geniuses are still rare and difficult for the public education system to handle. "The lack of coping comes because teachers aren"t trained in teaching gifted children," says Dudeney.
Helen believes it"s also extremely important for them to be recognized and supported in their talents. Mark"s parents are trying to figure out how best to help Mark. At the moment, there are few options. Mark finds first year work boring and simple, but he must learn to complete the work. His mother says, "We just want to be happy. Just to have a happy childhood and want to go to school every day.”
小题1:By saying "But his intelligence comes at a cost. ",the author means that | A．Mark must pay for his intelligence at a high price | | B．Mark"s intelligence brings him negative effects at the same time | | C．Mark"s intelligence results from his parents | | D．Mark"s parents make Mark clever at all costs |
小题2:Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? | A．Mark"s parents are very satisfied with his love for reading. | | B．Mark began to teach himself reading at the age of 3. | | C．Many child geniuses are not good at communicating with others. | | D．It is hard for parents to bring up a genius. |
小题3:If there are 6. 6 billion people in the world, the number of geniuses with an IQ of 200 will be
________．| A．about 4,400 | B．about 5,500 | C．about 6,600 | D．about 7,700 |
小题4:What would be the best title for the passage? | A．A genius" craziness for books | | B．The life of the genius" parents | | C．The burden of being gifted | | D．The characteristics of Mark |

During the school year many parents take on the role of driver as they drive their children from one lesson to another .Understandably so. Many of us want our children to have a little taste of everything, from organized sports to music, dance and more. But we can overdo it, leaving our children feeling a little burnt out, and according to parent educator Diane Loisie ,it’s their school work which suffers the most. “After school, if they’re busy in a number of sporting events, besides they need to do their homework, then the time they’ll feel sleepy is in the classroom. Your child needs free time. So if you’re filling up that after school time, then it’s during the day that they’re going to be taking a break.”
Professor Claire McDermott agrees that there’s a lot to be gained from sometimes putting those scheduled lessons and activities away. “Relaxing time is important for children. It’s time just to do the things they want to do. A child can go up to their room, or they can play around. It doesn’t look like productive time; parents certainly wouldn’t be saying ‘Wow, are they ever learning things now?’ But this relaxing time gives both the body and the brain just a wonderful chance to relax after a day. It helps a child prepare for sleep, but it also helps to understand the learning that’s gone on that day.”
It’s hard to prevent signing our kids up for some activities and lessons. After all, many of us want our children to have a head start in life and the chance to join in great activities in the arts or sports is a part of that. However, Loisie feels that in the long run most children feel better with just a few key activities because it gives them an opportunity to master them. “When we get our children in too many activities because we want our children to experience everything, then what we’re doing is setting them up not to be good at one thing or gaining a skill.” So choose your children’s activities wisely. It may be one of the best things you’ve ever done for your kids… and for the family drivers!
小题1:What is the biggest disadvantage for children to attend too many lessons after school?| A．They can get bored easily about everything. | | B．They might have no time to do the homework. | | C．They might not pay much attention to learning. | | D．They cannot easily focus on learning during the day. |
小题2:What should we think of children’s playing around aimlessly?| A．It is productive. | B．It is helpful. | C．It is a bad habit. | D．It is a waste of time. |
小题3:Why should parents limit the activities our children attend?| A．Because children have no time. | | B．Because children cannot learn many things. | | C．Because children do not have enough sleep. | | D．Because children cannot focus on too many activities. |
小题4:What is the main idea of this passage?| A．Don’t be children’s drivers after school. | | B．Choose activities for your children wisely. | | C．Make your children learn as much as possible. | | D．Let children learn something from various subjects. |

Many of us don’t like what we see around us but the last thing we do is to change it. I think that is the beginning of failure and that is why what we hate remains around us. If you don’t want to see things around you, don’t just hope it’ll change.
We have such an amazing power of creativity inside us to change the way things work around us. Only lazy people go about and say that is the way things have been working. I’ve come to discover that things around us depend on our actions and inactions. What I mean is that the circumstances that we like depend only on the things we do and the things we don’t do.
Do you want your country to change? Start by changing the small things around you. Before you think too far about any small thing to change, your habit should be the first thing to change. Change what you think about and talk about. Can you remember how difficult it was for you to break a habit that you desired to break some years back? If so, then you must accept that things aren’t just going to change by a magic thought. If it isn’t so easy to change yourself when you want to, it isn’t going to be so easy to change the people around you.
I think the best way I’ve changed people around me is that I changed myself. When you change, they’ll change. Just change yourself and see how many people will tell you later that you are the one who changes them. That’s one simple way young people can change their nations.
小题1: According to the text, why do we fail to change what we don’t like? _______| A．Because we lack the power of creativity. | | B．Because we never plan to change them. | | C．Because they cannot be changed. | | D．Because we don’t have the ability. |
小题2:The author can change people around him because he has realized that .| A．things around us decide what we do | | B．the further you think, the better | | C．his actions can affect things around him | | D．he has to change the nation first |
小题3:The third paragraph aims at .| A．telling readers one of the author’s interesting experiences | | B．giving an example to show how to change things around us | | C．showing readers how to change a nation | | D．asking us to remember to change our nation |
小题4:What can we learn from the text? ________| A．Circumstance creates a person. | | B．It is never too late to change your habits. | | C．A long journey begins with the first step. | | D．Changing ourselves means changing others. |

Sea lions and seals may swim in cold ocean water, but even they get chilly sometimes. Seeing an injured seal wrapped in a blanket at a marine(海的) mammal center gave Haley Humes and Hayley Jeffries an idea for a special Girl Scout project. They decided to make blankets to keep injured animals warm. They would give these blankets to the Pacific Marine Mammal Center in Laguna Beach, California.
“We knew we wanted to help animals,” Haley said. “We went to the center to ask questions about what they needed. They don’t have a heated floor, and all the babies crowded together to stay warm.”
Friends since kindergarten, Haley and Hayley made 12 blankets to keep the Marine Mammal Center’s seals and sea lions warm. Using fun images like Winnie-the-Pooh, the girls took two hours to make each blanket. The first sea lion to test out a blanket looked pretty in pink.
“It was a sick baby and really liked it,” Haley said. “It curled up in it right away.”
“The blankets are beautiful and the animals love them!” said the Mammal Center’s Michele Hunter. “It’s nice to see children taking pride in their work and doing something to help animals.”
During the project, the girls took dozens of pictures for the PowerPoint presentations they gave to Girl Scout leaders. Those presentations helped Haley and Hayley raise $250 to buy additional supplies the center needed.
This was the first project the girls ever worked on and took months to plan and carry out.
“I learned that in order to make something happen, you have to take it slowly and step by step,” Hayley said. Just as important, the girls discovered that two people really can make a difference. “Knowing you’re making a difference……with these animals is amazing,” Haley said. “It was like the animals became my new friends.”
The Pacific Marine Mammal Center cares for sea lions and seals, as well as for other marine mammals. Since opening in 1971,the center has saved more than 5,000 injured marine mammals.

小题2: When Haley and Hayley saw an injured seal wrapped in a blanket, they_____.| A．decided to help animals | B．asked Girl Scout for help | | C．went to the animal center to work. | D．called on others to protect animals |

小题4: Which of the following words can best describe the work of Haley and Hayley?| A．Difficult. | B．Successful. | C．Experimental. | D．Dangerous. |
