6.When you first arrive in Oxford,it may take a little while for you to find your way around.Some of the first things our students do when they arrive include finding a bike (most students in Oxford find cycling is the best way to go around),setting up a bank account,getting their computer and mobile phone working,finding their department,getting to know their college and working out the best places to socialize.
One of the major events you will experience shortly after"coming up"to Oxford is matriculation.Matriculation is held at the University's Sheldonian Theatre and is the ceremony at which you are formally admitted to the university.
International students are invited to an orientation day at the start of the academic year.Sessions run throughout the day that will give you practical information about living and studying in the UK and introduce you to other graduate students from all over the world who are starting their studies at Oxford at the same time as you,as well as to current Oxford graduate students and staff who will be able to help and advise you.The day covers topics such as studying and learning in the Oxford system,University services,information on living in Britain and cultural differences,as well as addressing practical issues such as employment,immigration and visas,health and safety.You can choose which talks to attend and at the end of the day there is a social hour so you can meet fellow students.
Another good thing to experience early is college dining.Most colleges have a tradition of regular formal hall dinners,which consist of three or four courses,and the atmosphere of an evening out in a nice restaurant.On some of these occasions you can invite people around to your college for dinner and then they may return the favor.In this way,you can get to know people studying your own and other subjects at the same time as visiting many of the historical college grounds and dining halls.

(39)BExercising provides lots of good health benefits.A good night's sleep is one of them.But make sure you exercise in the morning of afternoon.,The National Sleep Foundation reports that exercise in the morning or afternoon can help deepen sleep and cut the time it takes for you to fall into sleep.However,those who worked out in the evening hours saw little or no improvement in their sleep.

Plan your time carefully.When planning your work,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.(17)B A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems,but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time.

Study regularly.When you get home from school,go over your notes; look at the important points that your teacher is going to discuss the next day,and read that material.(19)G If you do these things regularly,the material will become more meaningful,and you'll remember it longer.
Develop a good attitude towards 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 over worried.

14.When the morning sun looks in through your bedroom window,do you jump
out of bed?(36)CAn adequate amount of sleep can make the difference between a great day and a terrible one!
A good night's sleep doesn't just happen.You need to prepare for it.(37)DFirst,go to bed at the same time every day,and get up at the same time.If you haven't gotten a good night's sleep,don't oversleep the next morning.Get up at your regular time.Sleeping late for just a couples of days can change your body clock to a different cycle.You don't want that if you have a set daily schedule.
Also,avoid big meals at night.(38)GYour stomach works hard to digest those fatty foods,and that may keep you up.
Your body produces a chemical called melatonin (褪黑色素) that helps you sleep.Light affects the amount of melatonin your body makes.(39)FSo at night turn off your TV and computer.Also,don't read from a backlit (背光) electronic equipment like an IPad.Some scientists think that the light from those stops your body from making melatonin.So turn those screens off at least an hour before bedtime.
Maybe you can't sleep or you wake up in the middle of the night.(40)AGet up and do something relaxing elsewhere.Then go back to bed when you feel sleepy again.If you worry a lot,make a list of things you need to do the next day.Do that an hour before bed.That way you get your worrying out of the way before you go to bed.
After a good night's sleep,you'll be able to face a new day.

1.The next time you go into a bank,a store,or a supermarket,stop and listen.What do you hear?(36)CIt's similar to the music you listen to,but it's not exactly the same.That's because this music was especially designed to relax you,or to give you extra energy.Sometimes you don't even realize the music is playing,but you react to the music anyway.
    Quiet background music used to be called"elevator (电梯) music"because we often heard it in elevators.But lately we hear it in more and more places,and it has a new name"Muzak".About one-third of the people in America listen to"Muzak"everyday.The music plays for 15 minutes at a time,with short pauses in between.It is always more lively between ten and eleven in the morning,and between three and four in the afternoon,when people are more tired.(37)B  
    If you listen to Muzak carefully,you will probably recognize the names of many of the songs.Some musicians or songwriters don't want their songs to be used as Muzak,but others are happy when their songs are chosen.Why?(38)F    
    Music is often played in public places because it is designed to make people feel less lonely when they are in an airport or a hotel.It has been proven that Muzak does what it is designed to do.Tired office workers suddenly have more energy when they hear the pleasant sound of Muzak in the background.(39)DSupermarket shoppers buy 38 percent more groceries.
    (40)A.They say it's boring to hear the same songs all the time.But other people enjoy hearing Muzak in public places.They say it helps them relax and feel calm.One way or another,Muzak affects everyone.Some farmers even say their cows give more milk when they hear Muzak!

C.Music is playing in the background.
D.Factory workers produce 13 percent more.
E.Muzak tends to help people understand music better.
F.They get as much as $4 million a year if their songs are used.
G.Muzak is played in most of the big supermarkets in the world.
11.Having reached the highest point of our route according to plan,we discovered something the map had not told us.It was impossible to climb down into the Kingo valley.The river lay deep between mountain sides that were almost vertical(垂直).We couldn't find any animal tracks,which usually show the best way across country,and the slopes were covered so thickly with bushes that we could not see the nature of the ground.We had somehow to break through to the river which would give us our direction out of the mountains into the inhabited lowlands.
Our guide cut a narrow path through the bushes with his long knife and we followed in single file.Progress was slow.Then,when we thought we had really reached the river,we found ourselves instead on the edge of a cliff with a straight drop of 1,000feet to the water below.We climbed back up the slope and began to look for another way down.We climbed slipped,sweated and scratched our hands to pieces and finally arrived at the river.Happily we came downhill along its bank without having to cut our way.However,after a few miles the river entered a steep-sided gap between rocks and suddenly dropped thirty-five feet over a waterfall.There was no path alongside it and no way round it.
Then one of the guides saw a way of overcoming the difficulty.There was a fallen tree lying upside down over the waterfall with its leafy top resting on the opposite bank below the falls.Without hesitation he climbed down the slippery trunk to show us how easy it was.Having got to the fork of the tree,he moved hand over hand along a branch for four or five feet with his legs hanging in space,then he dropped onto the flat bank the other side,throwing his arms in the air like a footballer who has scored goal,and cheerfully waving us on.

28.Having reached the highest point on their route,the travelers expected to be able toD.
A.track animals to the river
B.put away the maps they had been using
C.come near to the river from a different direction
D.get down to the river without much difficulty.
29.The travelers wanted to get to the river becauseC.
A.it would lead them to the waterfall
B.it would show them which way to go
C.it was the only possible way out of the mountains
D.it was a quicker way than going over the mountains
30.One reason why the travelers took so long to get to the river was thatB.
A.it was too hot to move quickly
B.there was no proper path
C.they all tried to go different ways
D.they could not follow the animal tracks
31.To get past the waterfall the guide had toA.
A.use a fallen tree as a kind of bridge     
B.cross the river above the waterfall
C.slide down a steep river bank          
D.swing across the river from a high branch.
15.How to Make Friends
Friendship is a very important human relationship and everyone needs good friends.Good friendship has many benefits.It offers companionship,improves self-worth and promotes good health.There are times in our lives such as when we have recently moved into a new town,or changed our jobs or schools.Such changes often leave us without a friend (36)EBut for many of us the process is difficult and requires courage.Below are some helpful suggestions on how to make and keep friends.
1.Associate with others.
The first step to making friends is associating with other people.You can go to public places to meet new people.Besides,you will need to make yourself known by becoming an active member of such places.
2.Start a conversation
Starting a conversation is the second most important step in making new friends.(37)CYou
can always start the conversation.Being able to make small talk is a very useful skill in relating with other people.
3.(38)B
Choosing friends with common interests is important in building friendship as these interests would always bring you and your friend together,Hanging out will always be a pleasant experience.
4.Let it grow.
It is a good thing to stay in touch.However,try not to press your new friend with calls,messages or visits as this would likely wear him or her out and finally you may lose your friend.
(39)G.The best friendships are the ones that grow naturally.
5.Enjoy your friendship
The best way to enjoy your friendship is to allow your friends to be themselves. (40)DTry not to change them from who they are to what you want them to be.Become the kind of friend you will want your friend to be to you.

A.Be cheerful.
B.Do things together.
C.Do not wait to be spoken to.
D.Try not to find fault with your friends.
E.Making new friends comes easy for some people.
F.For a friendship to develop you need to stay in touch.
