【题目】 We often see top students around us and everyone knows about them. Let us take Jenny as an example. She is monitor of our class. She spends a lot of time working for our class, but she s1 gets good grades in all subjects. How do students like Jenny do that? When I asked her, she said, “Hard work is not the whole story. It’s not how long you sit at the desk with your books open. It’s what you do while you are sitting.” Indeed, we can see many top students spend f 2 hours on their studies than their classmates. Jenny gave me some valuable suggestions.

Studying is a matter of personal preference(偏爱), so choose the w 3 that you are most comfortable with. Some people like working late at night when the house is quiet, while others like doing their work e4 in the morning. Still others like studying as soon as they arrive home from school while the work is fresh in their minds. No matter which way you use, try to do your best.

Studying is your business and business comes before entertainment(娱乐). When you are studying, phone calls should go unanswered, TV shows unwatched, snacks uneaten. Studying is the only thing in your mind. N 5 can pull you away from what you are studying.

Studying is like e 6 . You chew(咀嚼) it one bite at a time. You can plan what to do today, but don’t do too much. When you can’t finish the work you have planned to do, you may l 7 confidence. On the other hand, you will not study well without a good plan. It all depends on how you arrange your time.

Jenny told me that most of us would be as good as her if we tried our best. Maybe she is right, so why not have a try?

【题目】 Wherever travellers go, cameras are sure to follow. It's great fun to take photos, and even more fun to show slides of the trip to friends and relatives when they come back home.

There's Aunt Sarah, smiling in front of Buckingham Palace, Aunt Sarah, smiling under the Eiffel Tower, and Aunt Sarah, smiling in a Venetian Canal. Everyone knows what Aunt Sarah looks likethey also know what Europe's great landmarks(地标)look like.

But a young man named David, just back from a trip to Greece, asked a few friends over to see his slides. The young man had an artist's eye. His pictures were not of familiar Greek architectures. Instead, he took pictures of farmers at work in the field, fishermen repairing their nets, and bearded priests(牧师)bending over their Bibles. He captured(抓住)the colour and character of the country. His friends were so interested that they asked for more.

Any amateur(外行)can do the same. All he needs is a simple camera and a little sensitivity(灵敏度). When he learns that a nation lives in its people as well as in its landmarks, he moves from an amateur to an artist.
