It is more i 75 to know how to study by oneself. It's quite easy to learn something, but it's difficult to u 76 it to solve problems. Great inventors do not get everything from school, but they still can inventmany things and change the world a l 77 .
How can the inventors do all of this? That's b 78 they know how to study. A lot of things are not taught in the classroom. They get a lot of knowledge by reading o 79 school. They work hard and never g 80 up all their lives.

【解析】本文介绍了学校教育很重要而且很有用，但是知道如何独立学习更重要。很多发明家通过在校外阅读获得很多知识，他们努力学习，永不放弃。
1.learn
句意：然而没有人在学校学习所有的东西，而且一个老师不能教他的学生他们想要知道的一切。根据at school可知在学校，应是学习知识，位于情态动词can后作谓语，故用动词原形learn
。
2.everything
句意：然而没有人在学校学习所有的东西，而且一个老师不能教他的学生他们想要知道的一切。连词and前后表示并列，前半句表示没人能学到一切，因此后半句表示老师不能教学生他们想要知道的一切，故此处为代词everything。
3.show
句意：他的工作是给学生展示如何学习。show sb sth向某人展示某物，位于动词不定式符号to后，故用动词原形，故为show。
4.themselves
句意：所以学生们能独立学习更多东西。by oneself独立，主语是the students，故对应的反身代词是themselves。
5.important
句意：知道如何独立学习更重要。根据句型It is important to do sth“做某事是重要的”，故此处为important。
6.use
句意：虽然学习某物相当容易，但是用它来解决问题很难。根据句型It’s difficult to do sth“做某事很难”，故此处用动词原形，故为use。
7.lot
