【題目】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 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 find a partner.

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

Use old tests.

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.

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. 4Everybody 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 term definitions and others. Print out several tests and practice several times. 5 Then exchange.

Make use of old assignments.

Gather some old assignments and redo the exercises. Review those exercises until you can answer 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.

這是一篇說明文。文章就如何準(zhǔn)備期末考試提出了5點(diǎn)建議。

1根據(jù)前文提及final exams are on the way(期末考試快到了)以及后文提及The most important thing you can do is give yourself plenty of time to prepare.(你能做的最重要的事情就是給自己充足的時間來準(zhǔn)備。)可知,所填句子應(yīng)是對分?jǐn)?shù)提高有關(guān),且后一句可看作為答語,因此所填句子應(yīng)是疑問句。C項:How can you give yourself a chance to improve your scores?(怎樣才能給自己一個提高成績的機(jī)會呢?)承上啟下。故選C

2根據(jù)前文If you can’t completely get together, then exchange email addresses.(如果你們不能完全在一起,那就交換電子郵件地址。)可知,交換電子郵件是提供一個建議,所填空句子應(yīng)解釋其好處。A項:Instant messages will work well, too.(即時消息也可以。)符合文意。故選A。

3根據(jù)設(shè)空位置在小標(biāo)題處,可知所選句子應(yīng)為本段中心主旨。根據(jù)這一段內(nèi)容you should make several copies of each old exam and keep taking the tests until you score perfectly on each one.( 你應(yīng)該把每一次舊考試復(fù)印幾份,并堅持練習(xí)考試試卷,直到你每次考試都取得滿分。)可知,本段中心為堅持練習(xí)測試。B項:Have a set of practice tests.(做一系列的練習(xí)測試。)符合本段文意。故選B。

4根據(jù)設(shè)空位置在段中,應(yīng)是承前啟后句。根據(jù)前文Get together with a study partner or group to compare notes and fill in any missing material.(與學(xué)習(xí)伙伴或小組一起比較筆記并填寫任何遺漏的材料。)可知,所填空應(yīng)是與遺漏知識點(diǎn)有關(guān)。且后文Everybody zones out once in a while.(每個人偶爾都會走神。)進(jìn)行了解釋。因此F項:Don’t be too surprised if you missed key information from the lectures.(如果你錯過了講座的關(guān)鍵信息,不要太驚訝。)承上啟下。故選F。

5根據(jù)后文Then exchange.(然后交換)可知,是與小組成員之間交換做過的試卷測試。E項:Ask the members of your study group to make practice tests as well.(讓你學(xué)習(xí)小組的成員也進(jìn)行練習(xí)測試。)符合文意。故選E。

【題目】 Imagine your clothing could release enough heat to keep you warm and cozy, allowing you to stay comfortable in a cooler room. Or, picture a car windshield that stores the sun's energy and then releases it as heat to make the ice on the windshield disappear.

According to a team of researchers at MIT, both cases may be possible before long, thanks to a new material that can store solar energy during the day and release it later as heat. This transparent polymer film could be applied to many different surfaces, such as window glass or clothing.

Solar energy is only available about half the time we need it — during daylight. For the sun to become a major power provider for human needs, there has to be an efficient way to save it up for use during nighttime and stormy days. Most such efforts have focused on storing and recovering solar energy in the form of electricity, but the new finding, by MlI professor Jeffrey Grossman, Postdoc David Zhitomirsky and graduate student Eugene Cho, could provide a highly efficient method for storing the sun's energy through a chemical reaction and releasing it later as heat.

The key to enabling long-term, stable storage of solar heat, the team said, is to store it in the form of a chemical change rather than storing the heat itself. But heat will disappear over time no matter how good the material around it is, so the team set up a chemical storage system that can keep the energy in a stable molecular configuration. When exposed to sunlight, the molecules can stay that way for long periods Then, when triggered (觸發(fā))by a very specific temperature or something else, the molecules return to their original shape , giving off heat in the process.

Such chemically-based storage materials, known as Solar Thermal Fuels(STF), have been developed before. But those earlier efforts were designed to be used in liquid solutions and not able to make durable (耐用的) solid-state films. The new approach is the first based on a solid-state material, in this case a polymer, and the first based on inexpensive materials and widespread production technology.

1What is the main purpose of Paragraph 1?

A.To show the main idea of the passage.

B.To practice readers' imagination.

C.To interest readers in the passage.

D.To introduce a new kind of material.

2According to the passage, what can the polymer film do?

A.It can be made into window glass.

B.It can make necessary electricity.

C.It can store energy and release sunshine.

D.It can absorb sunshine and give off heat.

3According to the passage, what is STF based on?

A.The chemical reaction.

B.The movement of heat.

C.The form of electricity.

D.The physical reaction.

4What is the advantage of the molecular configuration?

A.It is less expensive.

B.It is very powerful.

C.It is easily available.

D.It is less changeable.

【題目】 A child who suffers bullying(霸凌) usually has low self-esteem and their ability to learn and be successful at school is greatly lessened. Therefore, bullying must be stopped.

The best and most obvious way to stop bullying in schools is for parents to change the way they raise their children at home. Of course, this is much easier said than done and everyone raises their children differently. Bullies, however, come from homes where physical punishment is used and children have been taught that physical violence is the way to handle problems and “get their way”. Bullies usually also come from homes where the parents fight a lot, so children have been modeled on such violence. Parental involvement is often lacking in bullies’ lives and there seems to be little warmth.

Early intervention (干預(yù)) is truly the best way to stop bullying, but parents of the victims or therapists(治療師) can’t alter the bully’s home environment. Some things can be done at the school level, however. Most school programs that address bullying apply a multi-faceted(多層面的) method to the problem.

Hand out questionnaires to all students and teachers and discuss if bullying is occurring. Define exactly what constitutes(構(gòu)成) bullying at school. The questionnaire is a wonderful tool that allows the school to see how widespread bullying is and what forms it is taking. It is a good way to start to solve the problem.

Get the children’s parents involved in a bullying program. If parents of the bullies and the victims are not aware of what is going on at school, then the whole bullying program will not be effective. Stopping bullying in school takes teamwork and concentrated effort on everyone’s part. Bullying also should be discussed during parent-teacher conferences and PTA meetings. Parental awareness is the key.

In the classroom setting, all teachers should work with the students on bullying. Oftentimes even the teacher is being bullied in the classroom and a program should be set up to teach about bullying. Children understand modeling behaviors and role-play and acting out bullying situations is a very effective tool. Have students role-play a bullying situation.

1In the author’s opinion, bullies usually _____________.

A.have extremely high self-esteem

B.know little of the harm of violence

C.look forward to parental involvement

D.experience or witness violence at home

2What does the underlined word “alter” in paragraph 3 mean?

A.understandB.change

C.removeD.approach

3Paragraph 5 suggests that it’s important to ______________.

A.make a punishment program effective

B.let parents know their children are bullies

C.find the key to improving security at school

D.make parents conscious of bullying at school

4What is the passage mainly about?

A.How to stop bullying in school.B.What leads to violence in schools.

C.What parents can do to stop bullying.D.How to comfort those who are bullied.
