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 what 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, read 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.

How to become a better student

In some children who go blind, certain parts of the brain that normally control vision appear to switch jobs and focus instead on sound, a new study has found.

The study, by researchers at the University of Montreal, involved 7 adults who could see and 12 adults who had lost their vision when they were children. Each participant sat in a room with 16 loudspeakers at different locations. The room was designed so that there were no echoes. During the experiment, the speakers irregularly produced sounds. Participants had to point to where the sounds were coming from. Meanwhile, the researchers monitored blood flow in the brains of the participants to see which brain structures were working during the task.

The results showed that five of the blind participants were very good at pointing to where sounds were coming from. In these people, blood flow increased in the visual cortex — an area at the back of the right side of the brain. This part of the brain is usually associated with vision.

The other seven blind participants showed no increase in activity in the visual cortex. These people didn't do very well at picking out where sounds were coming from. Now, the researchers are looking at whether these people have gained an enhanced sense of touch instead of sound to replace their lost vision.

The scientists say that their study shows how adaptable (有适应能力的) parts of the brain can be.

62.The purpose of the experiment described in the passage is to find whether _____________.

A. blind children can regain their sight           B. blind people have a better sense of sound

C. the sense of touch is better among blind people  D. blood flow in the brains of blind people is slower

63.The participants of the experiment were asked _______.

A. to tell the difference between 16 sounds       B. to take down the time each sound lasted

C. to identify the direction the sound came from   D. to detect the number of the loudspeakers

64.During the experiment, blood flow in the brains of the participants was measured in order to _______.

A. learn about the way they react to echoes       B. look for the way of enhancing hearing ability

C. find which parts of the brain were functioning  D. expose the relationship between seeing and touching

65. Which of the following statements best summarizes the main idea of the passage?

A. Most blind people have a well-developed sense of touch.

B. People go blind because of the breakdown of their visual cortex.

C. Most blind people have a better sense of sound than normal people.

D. Human brains can adjust themselves after the loss of a certain function.

Communicating effectively means more than knowing what to say and when to say it. Communication involves the subtle signals your body language sends to those who are watching. Here are some common body actions and the impressions they create:

● Fiddling (好动) — Playing with your watch or a pen looks like you’re bored or impatient.

● Clock watching — It looks like you’re to move on to something else.

● Tapping — Tapping your feet or fingers suggests you are impatient or nervous.

● Staring — An unblinking (不眨眼的) stare conveys threatening or violent behaviour.

● Legs crossed or body hunched (弓背，耸肩) — Closing up your body profile — becoming smaller — looks like you lack confidence.

● Arms crossed — If you keep your arms folded during communication, you appear to be defending yourself against the others.

● Touching your face — When you have your hand in front of your mouth, you appear very shy.

● Rubbing your nose, looking away — People who are lying often rub their nose or look away when speaking.

● No eye contact — If you won’t look the other speaker in the eye, you seem to have low interest or a lack of confidence. (Don’t forget staring above.)

　　　 How you communicate with your body language is just as important as what you say. Watch your body language and control the unconscious messages you might be sending.

59. According to the passage, effective communication includes all of the following EXCEPT　_____.

A. knowing what to say　 　　　　　　

B. sending unconscious messages to other people

C. saying the right thing at the right time 　

D. getting information from the other speaker’s body language

60. Which of the following people looks shy according to the passage?

61. If you want to show confidence when communicating, you should ______.

　 A. cross your legs or hunch your body　　　　　　　

　 B. avoid direct eye contact

　 C. look the other speaker in the eye　

　 D. keep touching your face

When we think about people who are leaders, we often get a mental picture of someone who is older, smarter, and wiser than ourselves. Studies of leadership, though, have usually found that there is almost no relationship between skill as a leader and traditional measures of intelligence.

Some recent research by psychologist Red Fiedle and his colleagues suggests that both intelligence and experience may be important—but just now how important depends upon how stressful the work situation is and what kind of task is to be accomplished. The researchers obtained measures of intelligence, experience, performance, and stress.

Overall, these variables did not relate to one another. Men with high and low intelligence were equally likely to give good performance, as were men with more and less experience, or more and less stress with their bosses. When you look separately at those men who have high stress with their bosses, however, the picture changes.

In high stress situations, there was no connection between intelligence and performance, but there was between experience and performance. In other words, in difficult situations, it was helpful to “know the ropes”. In low stress situations, the findings were just the opposite. Experience was not related to good performance, but intelligence was. That is, when things are going well, intelligence is very useful in leadership.

A study of fire fighters’ performance under high and low stress conditions also found the experienced officers performed best under situations of stress. None of this is really very surprising. If you have ever had a supervisory job, you probably found that at least as much energy went into dealing with people as went into managing the job itself. Tests of intelligence—at least the ones we have now—do not predict success in dealing with people.

55. What kind of people can do the best job in stress situation?

　　 A. intelligent people　　　　　 B. experienced people　 C. calm people　　 D. skilled people

56. In the second sentence of the fourth paragraph, “to know the ropes” most probably means　　 .　

　　 A. to understand the situation B. to control the situation

　　 C. to get rid of the situation D. to make sure what to do about the situation

57. In the third sentence of the last paragraph, “a supervisory job” refers to　　　 .

　　 A. a management job　 B. an advisory job　

C. a teaching job D. an organizing job

58. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

　　 A. In stress situations, there are no association between experience and performance.

　　 B. Some recent research suggests that most leaders are lack of intelligence.

　　 C. In low stress situations, intelligence plays an important role in leadership.

　　 D. Generally speaking leaders are likely to be cleverer than ordinary people.

What should you think about when you try to find your career? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in engineering career. A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work. So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong or weak subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value.

　　Your school may have taught you skills, such as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in your work. You may be good at mental work or cookery and look for a job where you can improve these skills.

　　If you have had a part - time job on Saturday or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part - time job.

Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is bitter to face any weaknesses than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not feel sorry about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work.

51. The first paragraph of the passage is mainly about ________.

　A. the indirect value of school work.　　　　　　　

B. the importance of being good at all subjects

　C. knowing one’s strong or weak subjects at school

D. using school performance to help to choose a career

52. In the writer’s opinion, for a student to have a part - time job is probably ________.

　A. a good way to find out his weak points　　　　

B. one of the best ways of earning extra money

　C. of great use for his work in the future　　　　　

D. a waste of time he could have spent on study

53. If a student’s school record is not good, according to the passage, he________ .

　A. may do well in his future work　　　　　　　 B. won’t be able to find a suitable job

　C. may be a complete failure in the future　　　　 D. will regret not having worked harder at school

54. The whole passage centers on ________.

　A. knowing oneself in looking for a job　　　　　

B. developing one’s abilities useful in school

　C. gaining much knowledge by working hard at school

D. choosing a career according to what one is skilled in

I ran into a stranger as he passed by. “ I’m so sorry!” was my reply. Then he said, “ Excuse me too… I wasn’t 　31 watching for you.” We were very polite, this stranger and I. Then we went 32 our way after saying goodbye.

But at 33 , a different story is told. How we treat our loved ones, young and old. Later in the kitchen, as I 　34 the meal, my daughter walked up to me, very still. When I turned, I 　35 knocked her down.“Get out of the way!” I shouted with a frown(皱眉). She stepped away silently, with her little heart 36 . I didn’t realize how rudely I had spoken.

That night, when I lay 　37 in bed, God’s quiet voice spoke to me and said, “ While 　38 with a stranger, you are calm and polite, but with those you love, you are QUICK to excite… Go look around on the kitchen floor, you’ll find some flowers there by the 39 . Those are the flowers she brought for you. She 　40 them herself--- pink, yellow, and your favorite blue. She stood there quietly and you never saw the 　41 in her eyes.”

By this time, I felt sad and small and now my own tears began to fall. I quietly went and knelt(跪) by her 42 . “ Wake up, my dear,” I said. “ Are these the flowers you picked up for me?” She smiled, “ I found them out by the tree, I 　43 them in a napkin（纸巾）, just for you. I knew you’d like them, especially the 44 .” I said, “ I am so sorry that I missed them today… And I 　45 have fussed( 大惊小怪) at you that way…”

And she whispered, “ Mommy, that’s OK… I still love you 46 . ” I hugged her and said, “ I love you, too and I LOVE the flowers.”

Do you know that: if you die tomorrow, the 47 　you are working for could easily replace(取代) you in a matter of days. But the family you leave 　48 will feel the loss for the rest of their lives. And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more into our 　49 than into our families---- an unwise investment(投资) indeed.
