Using Recall is simple. You type in the words you want to remember, and the app will test you from time to time. If you answer correctly, the app will show the word again later. If you make a mistake, it will show the word more often. In this way, you spend more time on the words you have not remembered well. The app was made by a group of college students. They found that many students forgot new words quickly, so they decided to build a tool based on memory research. Now over one hundred thousand students use it. However, scientists say an app cannot take the place of good habits. You still need to review your notes, read aloud and use the new words in sentences. The app is a helper, not a magic key. 63. What does the app Recall do? A. It plays music for students. B. It helps people remember words and facts. C. It cleans the mobile phone. D. It sends short messages. 64. What happens if you answer a word correctly in the app? A. The app shows it more often. B. The app shows it again later. C. The app deletes it at once. D. The app calls your teacher. 65. Who made the app Recall? A. A group of college students. B. Some hospital doctors. C. High school teachers. D. Factory workers. 66. What does the last paragraph mainly tell us? A. The app can replace all good habits. B. Students still need good habits besides the app. C. The app is a magic key to success. D. No students like the app now. D Cleaner Air, Better Learning A new study shows that cleaner air may help students do better in school. Researchers studied the test scores of more than six thousand students in a city over three years. At the same time, they recorded the air quality near each school. They found that when the air was cleaner, the students' test scores were higher, especially in maths and reading. Why does air matter so much? Scientists explain that polluted air makes it harder for the brain to get enough oxygen. When students breathe dirty air for a long time, they may feel tired more easily and cannot focus well in class. On clean-air days, their brains work better. The city has taken action. More buses now run on electricity, and thousands of trees have been planted along the streets. The researchers hope the study will make more people realise that clean air is not just a health problem — it is an education problem, too. 67. What did the study find? A.

Here is some advice from top students. First, make a list of what you need to review. Put the most difficult subjects first, because your brain works best when you are not too tired. Second, review in small blocks. For example, study for forty minutes, then take a ten-minute walk. This way, your mind stays fresh. Third, use your notes, not only the textbook. Good notes show what the teacher thinks is important. Fourth, test yourself. You can ask a classmate to ask you questions, or close the book and recall what you have read. Remember not to put off review until the last day. If you go to bed late the night before the exam, you may forget what you have learnt. A good rest is part of good review, and it helps your brain keep what you have studied. Start today, and you will feel calm and confident when the exam comes. Good review turns fear into confidence. 71. What should you put first in your review list? ________________________________________________ 72. How long should you study in one block according to the passage? ________________________________________________ 73. Why should we use our notes instead of only the textbook? ________________________________________________ 74.
