Note-taking is a skill that can help you do well in all your schoolwork. It can make you confident(自信的) when you are studying. But unluckily most students don’t know how to take notes.

Other teachers may not write anything down, but they may say something important again and again.
★Ask. Don’t be afraid to ask your teacher to repeat(重复) what you miss. If your teacher speaks too fast and you can’t follow what he is saying, you can ask him after class.
★Compare. Comparing your notes with your classmates’ can be good for your learning. It can also help you and your classmates correct some mistakes.
★Organize. Note-taking also needs organization. Keep notes for each subject(主题) in one notebook so that you can find everything easily when a test comes.

阅读下面短文,然后判断短文后面小题,正确的答案涂“T”,错误的答案涂“F”。
My name is Li Ming. Many students think English is difficult, but I find it interesting. My secret is to use different ways to practice. I used to be afraid of speaking in class because I was shy and worried about making mistakes. My teacher, Ms. Wang, told me, “Don’t be afraid of making mistakes. They are a part of learning.” So now, I try to speak as much as possible. I even talk to myself in English sometimes! I also improved my pronunciation by listening to English songs and watching English movies. At first, I couldn’t understand everything, but I read the subtitles and learned many new words and expressions. Now, I can understand most of the dialogues without looking at the subtitles. Another important thing is reading. I don’t just read my textbook. I read English stories and short articles online. When I find a new word, I don’t always look it up in the dictionary immediately. I try to guess its meaning from the context first. This helps me remember it better.
Learning English takes time, but it can be a lot of fun if you find the right methods for you.
36. Li Ming thinks English is difficult and boring.
37. Li Ming’s teacher encouraged him not to be afraid of making mistakes.
38. Li Ming improved his pronunciation only by reading the textbook.
39. Li Ming always looks up every new word in the dictionary immediately.
40 The passage is about how using different methods can make learning English interesting.

This extra (额外的) work helps keep your brain healthy and strong. ____42____ It found that bilinguals (会说双语的人) started to show signs of memory problems much later than those who weren’t.

After celebrating the Spring Festival, firecrackers (鞭炮) are set off once again to celebrate Po Wu, which is celebrated on the fifth day of the first month of the Spring Festival.
Po means “to break”, and this day emphasizes (强调) making a difference. Traditionally, many taboos (禁忌) are connected with the Spring Festival activities. Chinese people believe that, as the Spring Festival is the start of a new year, what you do then will influence your luck in the new year. After Po Wu, all these taboos are canceled (取消), which also means the end of the holiday season and getting back to work.
Generally, the celebrations begin from the night before. At midnight, a ceremony (仪式) is held during which fruits and cakes are laid out on the table and candles are lit before them. People also set off firecrackers to celebrate it. Besides, enjoying jiaozi is an important custom of the day. Jiaozi is a symbol of wealth as it is shaped like yuanbao. Making and eating jiaozi at home symbolizes creating wealth and improving living conditions. Some people fill the jiaozi they make with dates (枣) to wish for more sweetness and good luck in the future.
In many parts of southern China, Po Wu is also called “market-opening day” as many companies and stores reopen on the fifth day of the first month of the Spring Festival. Businessmen regard this day as a lucky time to start a new business.

10 —Excuse me. I wonder ________ there is a bus here to go to Downing Street.

【考点定位】考查宾语从句。
11. The teacher told us that light ________ faster than sound.
A. travel B. travels C. traveled D. will travel
【答案】B
【解析】

12. ________ clever boy he is!
A. What a B. What C. How an D. How
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:他是一个多么聪明的男孩啊!
考查感叹句用法。分析句子结构可知,此句为感叹句,中心词为可数名词单数的“boy”,符合结构为“What+a/an+形容词+可数名词单数+主语+谓语”的感叹句。“clever”是以辅音音素开头的单词,用a修饰。故选A。

A. where we will celebrate it B. when we will celebrate it
C. where will we celebrate it D. when will we celebrate it

C. joins; finishes D. joins; will finish

15. I don’t know ________ or not he will come here. ________ he comes here tomorrow, I will call you.
A. whether, Whether B. if, If
C. if, Whether D. whether, If
【答案】D

Note-taking is a skill that can help you do well in all your schoolwork. It can make you confident(自信的) when you are studying. But unluckily most students don’t know how to take notes.
★Write down key facts. If your teacher writes notes on the blackboard, that’s great. You can copy them or write down the most important facts of all in class.

Other teachers may not write anything down, but they may say something important again and again.
★Ask. Don’t be afraid to ask your teacher to repeat(重复) what you miss. If your teacher speaks too fast and you can’t follow what he is saying, you can ask him after class.
★Compare. Comparing your notes with your classmates’ can be good for your learning. It can also help you and your classmates correct some mistakes.
★Organize. Note-taking also needs organization. Keep notes for each subject(主题) in one notebook so that you can find everything easily when a test comes.

My name is Li Ming. Many students think English is difficult, but I find it interesting. My secret is to use different ways to practice. I used to be afraid of speaking in class because I was shy and worried about making mistakes. My teacher, Ms. Wang, told me, “Don’t be afraid of making mistakes. They are a part of learning.” So now, I try to speak as much as possible. I even talk to myself in English sometimes! I also improved my pronunciation by listening to English songs and watching English movies. At first, I couldn’t understand everything, but I read the subtitles and learned many new words and expressions. Now, I can understand most of the dialogues without looking at the subtitles. Another important thing is reading. I don’t just read my textbook. I read English stories and short articles online. When I find a new word, I don’t always look it up in the dictionary immediately. I try to guess its meaning from the context first. This helps me remember it better.
Learning English takes time, but it can be a lot of fun if you find the right methods for you.
