阅读下面的短文,并根据短文后的要求答题(请注意问题后的字数要求).      Maybe you are an average student. You probably think you will never be a top student. This
is not necessary so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here"s how.
Plan your time carefully.
      When you plan your week, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After    , you
should make a schedule of your time. First arrange your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then
decide a good, regular time for studying. Don"t forget to set aside enough time for entertainment. A
weekly schedule may not solve all the problems, but it will force you to realize what is happening to
your time.
Find a good place to study.
      Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply
a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios or TV! When you
sit down to study, concentrate on the subject.
Make good use of your time in class.
      Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teacher says. Really listening in class means
lesswork later. Taking class notes will help you remember what the teacher says.
Study regularly.
      When you get home from school, go over your notes. Review the important points that your teacher
has mentioned in class. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read the material.
This will help you understand the next class. If you do these things regularly, the material will become
more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.
Develop a good attitude towards the tests.
       The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. They help you to remember
your new knowledge. The world won"t end if you don"t pass a test, so don"t be overly worried.
      There are other methods that might help you with your studying. You will probably discover many
others after you have tried these.1．What is the best title of the passage? (Please answer within 10 words.)

2．Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?

4．Which suggestion do you think is the best for you ? Why?(Please answer within 30 words.)

答案

1．How to Become a Better Student
2．The world won"t end if you don"t pass a test, so don"t be overly worried.
3．making the list

5．在这个只是一张书桌或者仅是你房间的一个角落的地方,降了学习用品之外,什么也不放.

     There are some basic things to know about kite flying that can help you to enjoy the sport more. Here
are a few of the most important ones.
     First, if you have ever seen someone flying a kite in a movie, you probably saw him or her get the kite
off the ground by running into the wind. However, this is not the way to launch a kite. Most beginners will
find a "high start" launch to be the easiest. For a high start launch, have a friend stand about one hundred
feet away, facing into the wind. Your friend should face you and hold the kite gently. Place some tension(拉力) on the flying line by pulling gently on the line. With a steady breeze behind you, tug gently on the
line, and the kite will rise.
     If your kite begins to dive (俯冲), don"t panic or pull on the line. Dropping the reel (线轴) will cause it
to spin out of control, and could cause someone to be hurt. Simply let the line go slack (松弛的). This
usually will right the kite in midair.
     For a kite that is pulling hard away from you, have a friend stand behind you and take up the slack line as you bring it in. Hand over hand, pull down the kite. It is very important to have gloves on to do this, or
you may burn or cut your hands. It is recommended (建议) that you always wear gloves while flying
kites.
     When two kite lines get crossed, pulling may cause enough friction to cut one or both of the lines.
Instead of pulling, both fliers should walk towards one another until their lines uncross as they pass.(     ) 1. To launch a kite, run into the wind holding the kite behind you. (     ) 2. In a high start launch, a friend stands about one hundred feet away from you holding the kite. (     ) 3. If your kite begins to dive from the sky, immediately drop the reel. (     ) 4. It is suggested that you always wear gloves when flying a kite. (     ) 5. If your kite is pulling hard away from you, you should run after it. (     ) 6. If two kite lines get crossed, you should pull them apart.

阅读理解。     It is common and usual to see people freak out when they face challenges in their life. We all
pass in different life problems and challenges. No one is free of life problems. Only a dead man
faces no problem. As long as you are alive, challenges are everywhere.
     How do you face problems and challenges in your life? Problems and challenges are the building
blocks of your personality. They make you who you are. Besides, whether what happened in your
life builds or destructs you depends on how you look at it. If you take your problems as troubles,
they will be troubles and may cause destruction. If you take them as constructive tools, you are going
to be built up on them.
     Problems are everywhere. No one can avoid them. And they are good too. They open up a
different look and opportunity if you are willing to see. When you face troubles, do not frustrate or
freak out. Just cool yourself to think in a different direction. Think in a positive way. Every problem
has its own good as well as bad sides. Focus on the good one. Look at the bright side.
     Besides, there is always a good person, perhaps your mom or dad, or one of your friends, right
beside you who can turn everything into your best if you are willing to turn to them. No matter what
happens, they will be there to help you. Trust them and they will never let you down. All you need
to know is that you are loved wherever you are. 1. What"s the meaning of the underlined phrase "freak out" in Paragraph 1?A. Feel shy.

阅读理解。     High-quality customer service is preached(宣扬)by many, but actually keeping customers
happy is easier said than done.
     Shoppers seldom complain to the manager or owner of a retail store(零售店), but instead
will warn their friends, relatives, co-workers, strangers and anyone who will listen. Store managers
are often the last to hear complaints. "Storytelling hurts retailers and entertains consumers," said
Paula Courtney, President of the Verde group. "The store loses the customer, but the shopper mus
t also find a replacement."
     The most common complaints include filled parking lots, cluttered(塞满了的)shelves, overloaded
racks, out-of-stock items, long check-out lines, and rude sales people.
     During peak shopping hours, some retailers solved the parking problems by getting moonlighting
local police to work as parking attendants to direct customers to empty parking spaces. Retailers
can relieve the headaches by redesigning store display, pre-stocking sales items, hiring speedy and
experienced cashiers, and having sales representatives on hand to answer questions. Most importantly,
sales people should be skillful and polite with angry customers.
     "Retailers who"re enthusiastic and friendly are more likely to smooth over issues than those who
aren"t so friendly." said Professor Stephen Hoch. "Maybe something as a greeter at the store entrance
would help."
     Customers can also improve future shopping experiences by filing complaints to the retailer, instead
of complaining to the rest of the world. Retailers are hard-pressed to improve when they have no idea
what is wrong.1. Why are store managers often the last to hear complaints?A. Most shoppers won"t complain even if they have had unhappy experiences.
B. Shoppers would rather tell their unhappy experiences to people around them.
C. Few customers believe the service will be improved after their complaints.
D. It is difficult for customers to have easy access to store mangers.2. What does Paula Courtney imply by saying the underlined sentence in paragraph 2?A. New customers are sure to replace old ones.
B. It is not likely the shopper can find the same products in other stores.
C. The same products can be bought in other retail stores.
D. Not complaining to the manager causes the shopper some trouble too.3. What contributes most to smoothing over issues with customers?A. Manners of the salespeople.
B. Hiring of efficient employees.
C. Huge supply of goods for sale.
D. Design of the store display.4. To achieve better shopping experiences, customers are advised to ______.A. put pressure on stores to improve their service
B. settle their disagreements with stores in a friendly way
C. voice their dissatisfaction to store managers directly
D. shop around and make comparisons between stores

阅读理解。     We live in a very competitive world. Everybody seems to be competing with someone at
some level. Each week we spend hours playing or watching others compete in sporting activities
all over the world. We cannot help being impressed by the level of excellence that these people
achieve.
     In sport and business, competition encourages excellence in performance. Where there is no
competition, improvement in performance is less likely. Some level of competition is a have-to in
all aspects of life.
     The following story makes this point.
     As two friends are hiking in the forest they encounter a huge, ferocious and obviously hungry
Grizzly Bear. Its next meal has just come into sight, and they are it! The first friend calculates that
the bear will overtake them in 27.3 seconds. At that point, she panics; realizing there is no escape.
She faces her friend, with the fear of death in her eyes. To her amazement, she observes that her
friend is not scared at all. To the contrary, her friend is quickly but calmly taking off her hiking boots
and putting on jogging shoes. "What do you think you"re doing?" the first hiker says to her companion,
"You"ll never be able to outrun that grizzly." "That"s true," says the companion, "but all I have to do
is outrun you."
     We all compete when the motivation is strong enough. However, competition is not the real
purpose of life. Fulfilling the measure of our creation can only be achieved individually.
     Most of time, we are not in competition with any other person, so we do not have to compare
ourselves with others. There is only one person that can fulfill our role and that is us. This means
that others cannot beat us to the finish line because there is no race. This is not to say that others
do not have a similar role to us, but it is never the same. This is important to understand if we are
going to enjoy life. Every human being is unique and cannot be duplicated. In this, I am not referring
to the body, only to the spirit, soul, or the essence of a person.1. The first 4 paragraphs tell us that competition         A. is necessary though harmful
B. only exists in sports and business
C. is unavoidable and beneficial
D. is a fight against oneself2. Why is the story of two friends told in the passage?A. To advise friends to be loyal even in competition.
B. To expose the weak side of friendship when tested.
C. To support the author"s own argument on competition.
D. To offer evidence of necessary competition in life.3. From the last two paragraphs we learn that           .A. competition plays an important role in social development
B. we don"t have to compete since we are all different
C. we have to beat others in order to survive
D. there is more to life than just competition4. As a whole the passage advises the readers to       .A. realize we are living in a world of competition
B. face competition in a balanced state of mind
C. have a strong sense of being a possible winner
D. value friendship however fierce competition may be

阅读下面对话,并根据对话内容完成表格.

     Dr David Weeks has spent years studying these so-called "Superyoung" people. Now the
reporter(R) is interviewing Dr Weeks(DW).
     R: Dr Weeks, could you start by telling us exactly what you mean by the expression "Superyoung"?
     DW: Yes, well, I mean a lucky group of people who actually look and feel as much as 18 years
younger than they really are.
     R: Is looking younger than our age just a question of our genes?
      DW: Well, of course it"s one of the important things. But we have many other things to think about.
My study has shown, for example, that a happy life is quite important. They often have friendships with
people younger than themselves too.
      R: And do the "Superyoung" have a lot of children?
      DW: No, in fact the opposite. Our study showed that 15% of the "Superyoung" don"t have children
at all and those that have children usually have small families, one or two children at most.
      R: Is lifestyle important?
      DW: Yes, the "Superyoung" usually sleep very well and have usual or even low blood pressure. Our
study showed that they travel more often and when they do travel they often travel further. Generally
speaking, they are also people who read more and watch less TV than the rest of us.
     R: And do they do a lot of exercise or sport?
      DW: Yes, in fact we found that they are the kind of people who prefer to do sport rather than watch
sport. A strange fact we discovered is that they prefer the sports one person does such as swimming or
walking to playing team sports such as football.
