Dear friends,

I'd like to share my suggestions about studying with you. "Studying" is not the same thing as "doing homework"! Studying may include doing homework,but it also includes a lot more, as you will see. So if you say that you have no homework,and therefore you can't or you don't have to study, you're mistaken!

I am going to give you some suggestions on how to study efficiently. They worked for me when I was in the high school and college.

Not only that, but they also worked equally well for me in literature and math.

Although everyone's learning style may be different,and some of my suggestions may not work for you, I still ask you to try them. A lot of successful students have used them.

Please send me suggestions about studying that work for you. I will try to include them into the further version of this guide.

Here are some of my suggestions:

A. Manage your time.

B. Take notes in class and rewrite them at home.

C. Study hard and study in a quiet place.

D. Read texts actively and slowly. Do it before and after class.

E. Finish your homework by yourself.

F. Do not only study for exams.

Yours,

Emma

Parents are busy today. Sometimes they have to leave their children at home alone. For children, it is important to know how to keep themselves safe when they are at home alone. If you are one of them,what should you do? Let me give you some advice.

When you arrive at your home, you should check the doors and windows first. If they are broken, it says someone must have entered. If so, wait outside and tell your parents or the police. If everything appears normal,you should go inside and lock the door quickly. If something seems strange inside, you should ask your neighbour for help and call the police.

If someone knocks at the door, you should identify the visitor before you open the door. This can be done by saying, "Yes, who is it?" You can also look through the peephole to see if you know the visitor. If you don't know the person very well, don't open the door.

You should not allow strangers to enter the house or give out any information about your family. You should be polite when you talk with the stranger, but remain behind the closed door. If the visitor wants to speak to your parents, you should say that the parents can't come to the door at the moment and offer to take a message.

A. Parents.         B. Police.

"What's the name of our neighbor? I can't remember right now. " Have you ever heard your grandparents ask questions like this sometimes? Usually, we think that older people's memory becomes bad because their brains get weak. But now a team of scientists at the University of Tubingen in Germany has a new idea.[

"The human brain works slower in old age," says Michael Ramscar, the lead scientist. "But only because they have stored more information overtime. "

The findings are based on a series of computer simulations(模拟)of learning and memory. Scientists let the computers read a certain amount of words and learn new things each day. When the computer "reads" only so much, its performance on cognitive(认知)tests is similar of a young adult. But if the computer learns the experiences we might encounter over a lifetime, its performance is similar to that of an older adult.

Often it is slower, but not because its processing capacity has declined. Rather, increased "experience" has caused the computer's database to grow, giving it more data(数据)to process-which takes time. This is similar to old people. Imagine a person knows two people's birthdays. Another person knows the birthdays of 2000 people, but can only match the right person to the right birthday nine times out of 10. Can you say the first person has a better memory than the second person?

1.The writer uses a question at the beginning of the passage to         .

A. invite the readers to answer the question

B. attract the readers' attention to the topic

C. show how weak older people's brains are

   D. tell the readers the latest findings about brains

2.According to the research, why do old people forget people's names easily?

A. Because they have a very poor memory.

B. Because they are too old to remember things.

C. Because their brains become weaker than before.

D. Because they have stored too much information.

3.Where would this passage most probably appear?

A. In a magazine.   B. In a story book.

C. In an ad.        D. In a guidebook.

4.What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Do old people have a bad memory?

B. Scientists' new findings on brains

C. Human brain's processing capacity

D. Which is better, the old or the young?

阅读表达阅读下面的短文并用英语回答问题,并将答案写在答题卡标有题号的横线上。

Linda Edwards was full of happiness because her lost cat Spas was returned to her 12 years after he went missing!

Spas went missing in 2002 and Edwards looked for him every day for three months. She searched all around her town and even wrote letters to some newspapers for help. But she was never able to find him. At the end of the three months,her search stopped.

But someone recently discovered a dirty, thin stray(流浪的;走失的)cat in the street and took him into West Flamingo Animal Hospital. The people working in the hospital checked the cat and were sure enough that his name was Spas and he belonged to Linda Edwards!

"An old lady found the cat on Sunday and brought him here. We scanned(扫描)his microchip(微芯片)and we were able to find out his owner. The cat, whose name is Spas, has been missing for 12 years! " said a doctor.

It is a way to recognize pets by scanning their microchips if the stray animals belong to anyone who could be missing them. It also allows animal services to know if the animals have a family waiting for them. Linda was very thankful that she had Spas taken the microchip and was so excited to get him back!

"I have a second chance to play with my cat," she said. "This would never have happened if there were no microchips. "

1.Who took the cat to the animal hospital?

 

2.How did the animal hospital know the owner?

 

3.If you have a pet,will you have your pet taken the microchip? Why or why not?
