     What do you know about the sea? You may have seen it. Some of us have swum or bathed in it. It
looks beautiful on a fine sunny day and it can be very rough when there is a strong wind. What other
things do we do about it? Of course, the sea is very large. In the world there is more sea than land. The
sea covers three quarters of the earth. The sea is also very deep in some places. It is not deep
everywhere; some parts of it are very great. At one spot, near Japan the sea is nearly 11kilometres deep
just think of it, the highest mountain in the world is only 9 kilometres high! If you have swum in the sea,
you know that the water is salty. Rivers carry salt from the land into the sea. Some parts of the sea are
more salty than other parts. Do you know the Dead Sea in Arabia? It is very salty. Swimmers cannot
sink in it! Fish cannot live in the Dead Sea. It is a strange sea. In most parts of the sea, there are a lot of
fishes and plants. Some live near the top of the sea. Others live deep down. No sunlight can reach the
depth of the sea. So it is completely dark. Strange fishes live there. Some are blind. Some have their own
lights. Some have great jaws(嘴巴).With their great jaws, they swallow fish larger than themselves.
The sea can be very cold. Deep sea divers know this well. At the top the water may be warm. Then as
the divers go down, the sea becomes colder and colder.
    Many scientists are now making a study of animal and plant life in the sea. They hope to find new
resources for mankind.

     任务型读写。请认真阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在文章后图表中的空格里填
入最恰当的单词。)注意:每空不超过1个单词。
     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:
     1. Plan your time carefully. When you plan your week, you should make a list of things
that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First 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 your problems,
but it will force you to realize wha is happening to your time.
     2. 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 television! When you sit down to study, concentrate on the subject.
     3. Make good use of your time in class. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything
the teachers say. Really listening in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember
what the teacher says.
     4. Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes. Review the important
points that your teacher mentioned in class. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the
next day, reading that material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.
     5. Develop a good attitude about tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have
learned about a subject. They help you 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.
