20.You are the collector in the gallery of your life.You collect.You might not mean to but you do.One out of three people collects tangible things such as cats,photos and noisy toys.
These are among some 40 collections that are being shown at"The Museum Of"-the first of several new museums which,over the next two years,will exhibit the objects accumulated(积累)by unknown collectors.In doing so,they will promote(推动)a popular culture of museums,not what museums normally represent(代表).
Some of the collections are fairly common-records,model houses.Others are strangely beautiful-branches that have fallen from tree,for example.But they all reveal (显露)a lot of things:ask someone what they collect and their answers will tell you who they are.
Others on the way include"The museum of Collectors"and"The Museum of Me."These new ones,it is hoped,will build on the success of"The Museum Of."The thinkers behind the project want to explore why people collect,and what it means to do so.They hope that visitors who may not have considered themselves collectors will begin to see they,too,collect.
Some collectors say they started or stopped making collections at important points:the beginning or end of adolescence ( 青春期 )-"it's a growing-up thing; you stop when you grow up,"says one.Other painful times are mentioned,such as the end of a relationship.

15.As a child grows up,you may wonder how you can teach him to become a respectful adult.(36)CA child who learns to respect n ot only learns to receive respect from others,but also learns to respect others.

When a situation arises,stay calm and keep in mind that you are supposed to be modeling correct behavior.(39)D

14.(36)EYou probably think you will never be a top student.This is not necessarily so.However,anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to.Here is how:
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.(37)CA weekly schedule may not solve all your problems,but it will force you 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 eeverything but study materials.No games,radios,or television.When you sit down to study,concentrate on the subject.
Make good use of your time in class.(38)DListening carefully in class means less work later.Taking 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 is going to discuss the next day,read that material.(39)A 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.
(40)F You will probably discover many others after you have tried these.

A.This will help you understand the next class.
B.No one can become a top student unless he or she works hard.
C.Don't forget to set aside enough time for entertainment.
D.Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teacher says.
E.Maybe you are an average student.
F.There are other methods that might help you with your studying.
G.Make full use of class time to take notes of what the teacher says in class.
