解答 36---40 BEFGC
36．B承上启下题．根据上句It's your teachers'way of evaluating how much you understand what's going on in class．可知作业是你的老师检查你的听课效果的一种方法．而B项的意思是：做状语还能帮助你消化重要的概念，二者都在说做作业的好处，故选B与上下文一致．故选B．
37．E上下文衔接题．根据后句It's much easier to take a minute to ask the teacher during or after class than to struggle to remember later that night!可知花一些时间问老师更好．E选项的意思是：不要害怕问问题，前后一致，故选E符合上下文．故选E．
38．F联系上文题．本段的意思：在学校多用一些时间．根据前句It's tempting（诱惑人的） to hang out with friends during study periods or unstructured （松散的） time．可知在学习期间和朋友玩一玩很有诱惑力．F选项的意思是：你在学校完成的作业越多，你在晚上做的作业就越少．符合上下文，故选F．
39．G归纳总结题．根据后一句So take some breaks while doing your homework．可知不要做的时间太长，注意之间的休息．G选项的意思是：因为人的注意力的时间不会太长，前后形成因果关系，故选G项与上下文符合．故选G．
40．C主旨大意题．本段的意思是：如果你的作业很多，你应该做一个计划，C．Plan yourself，得到意思是：自己计划与本段的意思是一致，故选C．
