When I was at university，I studied very hard．But a lot of my friends did very little work．Some did just enough to pass exams．Others didn’t do quite enough．Fred Baines was one of them．He spent more time drinking in the Students’ Union than working in the library．
Once at the end of the term，we had to take an important test in chemistry．The test had a hundred questions. In my room the night before the test，Fred was watching TV．Fred usually worried a lot the night before a test．But on that night he looked perfectly calm．Then he told me of his plan．“It’s very simple．There are a hundred questions and I have to get fifty correct to pass the test．I’ll take a coin into the examination room．I haven’t studied a chemistry book for months，so I’ll just toss the coin．That way，I’m sure I’ll get half the questions right．”
The next day，Fred came happily into the exam room．As he sat tossing a coin for half an hour he marked down his answers．Then he left，half an hour before the rest of us．
The next day，he saw the chemistry professor in the corridor．“Oh，good，”he said，“Have you got the result of the test?”The professor looked at him and smiled，“Ah，it’s you，Baines．Just a minute．”Then he reached into his pocket and took out a coin．He threw it into the air，caught it in his hand and looked at it．
“I’m terribly sorry，Baines，”he said，“You failed!”

先阅读短文，然后根据短文内容从文后每小题的四个选项中，选出一个能完成所给句子或回答所提问题的正确答案。
Never try to work when you are very hungry. If you decide to do your homework right after school, you may want to have something to eat before getting to work. Always do your homework before you get too tired. Don't wait until very late in the evening, or the work will seem much harder than it really is.
Break your time into periods that you can control. If you have more than an hour's work, give yourself a break after an hour. On the other hand don't break it up so much that you can't get anything done. You should be able to work at least half an hour at a time without stopping.
Don't put it off until the last minute. If you put off doing your homework, you will have it on your mind, and you won't enjoy your free time so much. If you put it off until the end of the week or until right before a test, you will have too much catching up to do for you really to learn. A little bit each night, enough to keep up with what is happening each day at school, will take the fear(忧虑) out of tests and keep you on top of it all.
Do your homework at the same time every day. This will help you make it a habit－part of your daily work. It will make it easier to do, and it will make your free time more enjoyable as well.
1．In the first paragraph(段落), the writer tells us to do our homework ________.
[ ]
2．If you need two hours to do your homework, you'd better ________.
[ ]
A．finish it without a stop
B．have a break in the middle
C．rest at least four times
D．break your time as much as possible
3．Which of the following can be the idea of paragraph 3?
[ ]
A．Never too old to learn.
B．He who will not work shall not eat.
C．Where there's a will, there's a way.
D．Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today.
4．In the fourth paragraph the underlined word “habit” means “________”.
5．Which of the following is right according to the passage?
[ ]
A．Eat enough before you do your homework.
B．Always do your homework in the evening.
