【题目】根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。有两项为多余 选项。

How to Study for a Test or Final

The end of the term is drawing near，and that means final exams are on the way. 【1】

The most important thing you can do is to give yourself plenty of time to prepare. Then follow this plan：

Start Early

Gather all the material you've received during the term. Read through your class notes twice.

Some things will sound familiar and some things will sound unfamiliar. That's normal.

Establish a Study Group or Partner.

Schedule at least one meeting time with a study partner or study group. If you can't completely get together，then exchange email addresses. 【2】

Collect your old exams from the year (or semester) and make a photocopy of each one. Write out the test answers and copy each one again. Use Old Tests

【3】

To get the best results，you should make several copies of each old exam and keep taking the tests until you score perfectly on each one.

Build up Your Class Notes.

Organize your notes by date and make note of any missing dates/pages. Get together with a study partner or group to compare notes and fill in any missing material. 【4】 Everybody zones out once in a while. After you organize your new set of notes，underline any key words formulas，themes，and concepts.

Make yourself a new practice test with fill-in sentences and term definitions. Print out several tests and practice several times. 【5】 Then exchange.

Make Use of Old Assignments.

Gather some old assignments and redo te exercises. Review the exercises until you can every question easily.

A. Instant messages will work well, too.

B. Have a set of practice tests.

C. How can you give yourself a chance to improve your scores?

D. You might find one that makes something clear for the first time.

E. Ask the members of your study group to make practice tests as well.

F. Don’t be too surprised if you missed key information from the lectures.

G. Have your friend or study partner raise questions and compare them.

【题目】While I will explain a bit about the science of stress and relaxation a little later simple way to think about it is that our body 's stress response works like a car alarm. Keep us safe by warning us of the presence of danger in our immediate environment.

But instead of warning us with a loud and annoying sound，our body alarm system lets us know that something is wrong by creating changes in our neurochemistry (神经化学）.If you've ever experienced pain in your stomach，periods of extreme anger, inability to focus or even insomnia (失眠），chances are your body was paying the price in those moments for the brain chemistry of stress.

So if it's so uncomfortable，why not just get rid of stress altogether?

This is not only impractical，it would be dangerous. Let's go back to the metaphor (比喻说法）of the car alarm. If the alarm is turned off altogether，the car is exposed to continual danger without there being any way of your knowing about it until it is too late. It would be like walking through the jungle without any fear signal in the presence of a poisonous snake or other dangerous animals — while it might feel “nice” to be so relaxed，your body actually needs the stress response not only to remind you of danger but also to offer extra adrenaline (肾上腺素) for your heart and extra blood and oxygen for your arms and legs.

However，if the car alarm goes off at any time，someone just looks at the car with a bit of an attitude，and it becomes equally useless. Not only do we stop paying attention to it，but it begins to drive us and everyone around us becomes a little bit crazy. In the case of our bodies，walking around in a constant state of alarm also has some pretty alarming health consequences，which we will explore in greater depth in the next chapter.

【1】Our body's stress response is compared to a car alarm in that .

A. they work all the time B. they both give a signal

C. they work in the same way D. they both produce a sound

【2】When our body alarm system works， .

A. we feel calm

B. we feel excited

B. some changes happen in our brain

D. some changes happen in our heart

【3】What would happen if stress were got rid of completely?

A. We'11 be free of worries.

B. We'11 achieve a sense of safety.

C. We'11 reach a perfect state of mind.

D. We'11 fail to realize the possible danger.

【4】 What's the purpose of giving the example of walking through the Jungle in Paragraph 4?

A. To show the harm of stress.

B. To show the effect of stress.

C. To explain the function of stress response.

D. To explain the necessity of stress response.

【题目】一My son is a volunteer and often helps the disabled．

一______．They’re really something．

A．So do they B．So it is with my son

C．So are they D．So is my son

【题目】Many years ago there was an old man who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn not to judge things too quickly. So he told them to go and look at a pear tree. It was far away from his home. The first son went in winter, the second in spring, the third in summer and the youngest son in autumn.

When the sons came back, the old man asked them to say what they had seen. The first son complained the tree was ugly. The second son said the tree was covered with buds and full of hope. The third son said the tree was full of green leaves. They looked so beautiful and it was the most wonderful thing he had ever seen. The youngest son said that the tree was bowed (弯) down with heavy fruits. It was full of life and fulfillment (收获).

The man explained that all of his sons were right, but each of them had seen just one season of the tree. He told them that they couldn’t judge a tree or a person by only one season. “If you give up when it’s winter you will miss the hope of your spring, the beauty of your summer and the fulfillment of your autumn,” said the old man.

It is true that we shouldn’t let the hard season break the happiness of the other seasons. Never give up during the difficult days and better times are sure to come someday.

【1】In which season did the fourth son go and look at a pear tree? ______________

A. Spring B. Summer C. Autumn D. Winter

【2】Which of the following is TRUE? _________________

A. The old man just played a joke on his sons.

B. The four sons all liked the tree.

C. The pear tree was near his home.

D. The third son said the tree was beautiful.

【3】What’s the main idea of this passage? ______________

A. Every tree has four seasons.

B. Father’s love is great.

C. Don’t judge a life by one difficult time.

D. Life is different for everyone.

Dear Mandy，

I'm not doing well in my lessons at school，especial in maths. My dad says I must try hard because he wants me go to university. He thinks I'm lazy，but it's not true. I work really hard，often study late into the night! I've tried to talk to my mother，but she always said I have to work as hard like my brother does. My brother doesn't study very hard，and he always gets excellent grades. It's not fair!

The only thing I like it is art. My teacher says I'm the best student she's had for year. When I told my dad，all he said was，“ You mustn’t waste your time in art. You must focus your mind on your lessons! ”

I'm feeling quite puzzling as to what to do now. Would you please help me out?

Thanks a lot!

Yours sincerely， Lisa
