should be devoted to studying.23 learning is undoubtedly important,a life focused only on studying can feel dull and
lifeless.Youth is the time for us to learn about people and about ourselves.Some teachers try to 24

Have you heard of'aha moments"in animals?A famous set of experiments helped scientists better understand insight,
the sudden flash of understanding.They were done by psychologist Wolfgang Kohler,who studied chimpanzees nearly a
hundred years ago.
In one experiment,a tasty banana hung high from the ca ge ceiling,far out of the reach of a clever chimpanzee
named Sultan.Inside the cage lay several empty wooden boxes.At first,Sultan jumped again and again,
trying to grab the fruit.When jumping failed,he gave up the useless tries.He walked around,
looked at the boxes,and stayed quiet for some time,as if deep in thought.
Then came his aha moment.All at once,he started to stack the boxes one upon another.He climbed onto the box tower
and successfully got the banana.What surprised Kohler most was that Sultan did not get the answer
through repeated random tries.The solution appeared suddeunly after a period of thinking.
Kohier called this insight learning.It is different from trial-and-error learning.In trial-and-error,
you slowly find answers by trying one way after another.Insight,however,happens when your brain
connects different pieces of information in a sudden moment.This is not only seen in smart animals.
Iluman students also experience it.after long-time thinking.you suddenly"get"a difficult math problem
or grammar rule.Such aha moments bring great joy and improve your learning results.

C.Sultan found the solution all of a sudden instead of random tries.
D.Sultan spent lots of time playing with the boxes.
51.What is the difference between insight leaming and trial-and-error leaming?
A.Insight learning brings the answer suddenly:trial-and-error works little by little.
B.Insight learning is only for animals while trial-and-error is only for humans.
C.Trial-and-error needs thinking but insight does not.
D.Trial-and-error always brings joy but insight does not.
52.What is the main idea of the passage?
A.How Kohler kept chimpanrees in cages for experiments.
B.A famous experiment showing what insight learning is.

In a small apartment building in New York,two young painters.Johnsy and
Sue,lived and worked together.Io cold winter,a serious disease spread in the
neighborhood.Unluckily,Johnsy caught the illness.She lay in bed all day weak
and hopeless.
Instead of receiving treatment actively,Johnsy made a strange decision.She
watched an old ivy vine(常春腠)outside her window.There were only a few
leaves left on the vine after the cold wind.She told Sue that she would die when
the last leaf fell.
Sue was worried about her friend.She tried her best to cheer Johnsy up and asked the doctor for help.But Johnsy refused
to listen.Iler health got worse day by day,and she kept staring at the ivy vine,waiting for the last leaf to drop.
An old painter called Behrman lived on the ground floor.He was over sixty years old.He had never finished a great
painting in his life,though he always talked about creating a masterpiece.When Behrman knew Johnsy's strange idea,he felt
sorry for the poor girl.
A terrible storm came on a cold rainy night.The wind and rain beat heavily against the windows.Everyone thought the
last ivy leaf would surely fall.Ilowever,when Johnsy woke up the next morning,she was surprised to find the last leaf was
still firmly on the vine.It stayed there bravely,fighting against the storm.
Day after day,the leaf never fell.Johnsy slowly regained hope and courage.She realized how silly she had been and
started to cooperate with the doctor.Finally,she got well completely.
And that afternoon Sue came and said,"Mr.Behrman died of the serious cold today in the hospital.He was ill only two
days.People found him in his room,helpless with pain.His shoes and clothing were wet through and icy cold.They couldn't
imagine where he had been on such a terrible night.And then they found a lantern,a ladder,some brushes and-look out the
window,dear,at the last ivy leaf on the wall.Didn't you wonder why it never fell when the wind blew?Ah,darling,it's
Behrman's masterpiece-he painted it there the night that the last leaf fell."

题的空格里填入适当的答案。
How do your classmates stay calm during exams?Why can they work out group work problems quickly or solve fights
with friends?The secret isn't being"born smart"-they ask themselves simple questions like,"What should I do next?"
or"Is there a better way?"This skill is called"metacognition".If you never use metacognition,you are in danger of wasting a
lot of time on small problems.
Understanding metacognition
Metacognition means"thinking about how you think".Imagine it as a map for your brain-it helps you see your learning
path clearly.Scientist John Flavell said,"It's like knowing what you know and what you don't know."People who use
metacognition well break a big task into small ones(plan),find mistakes quickly(check),try new ways if something doesn't
work(repair)and use what worked before in new situations(learn).In this way,people can work out problems faster with less
trouble and effort.
Real-life examples of metacognition
Preparing for exams.Tom breaks his study into two parts-30 minutes for notes and 10minutes for his problems.tater,
he asks,"Can I explain this to my classmates?"If not,he marks difficult parts or watches short videos to help himself learn
faster.
Working in a group.Lisa divides tasks into"research"and"writing"and then sets weekly Friday meetings.When
a member is absent,she calmly gives the tasks to others and uses the group chat to share their work.In this way,the
project can be finished on time successfully.
Managing moods.When a friend suddenly changes the outing plan,Mike stops for a moment,takes a deep breath
and asks himself,"Am I angry because of this?"He then sends WeChat messages to his friend,"Can we meet another
day?"This calm way of dealing with his awful feelings is a better choice.He used to be so painful when little things
went wrong,but now he stays calm.
Practising metacognition
When you're working,ask yourself questions like,"What should I do now?","Is this helpful?"or"Is there a better
way?"Write down good ideas in a notebook,or try to explain them out.If you can't explain them clearly,go back and
review the parts you don't understand.When you're trapped,think:"How will someone else solve this?"Maybe they
will research first,break the task into small ones or ask for others'help.Try to do what they do!
Why it matters
Metacognition turns"not understanding"into"clear understanding".In the face of math problems or daily
challenges,paying attention to how you think helps you do better.Remember:The best learners don't just work hard,
but also use metacognition to work smarter.
It works as a mind map to deal with the problems instead of a 76 skill.

of values,instead of being influenced by harmful online opinions.At a time when wrong ideas about masculinity(
are spreading online,they hope to help students develop good values.The program does help teenagers
p89 better at school and at home.It has also g 90 improved their communication skills
For nearly two years,students have joined a weekly after-school class about emotional growth.The teachers
talk about teenagers'brain development and feelings with students aged12 to 14.Teenage years are just a s 91of
life.These classes help teenagers who don't always believe themselves become more c 92 and learn to deal
with their feelings.
The class is held in a local secondary school.It helps students who have trouble with their schoolwork not only
face the problem but also f 93 the situation.Its goal is to help them finish school with the skills and grades to
make a good move into adulthood.
The programhelped me open up...because I didn't really like talking to people.I just kept all my emotions
bottled up inside of me,"one student said.The program teaches an important lesson.R 94 that asking for
help is not a sign of weakness.

参考范文
My role model is Paul,the main character from the novel *How the Steel Was Tempered*.He is strong-willed,brave
and always sticks to his belief no matter what happens.
Paul faced extremely terrible difficulties in his life.He fought in wars,got seriously injured over and over again,and
finally lost his sight and even the ability to move normally.Most people would break down in such situations,but Paul never
gave up.Instead of complaining about his unfair fate,he picked up a pen and kept writing to encourage more people,even
when he was suffering from great pain.
From Paul,I have learned that true strength comes from an unbreakable will.When I meet difficulties in my study or
daily life-like failing an exam or being stressed out by heavy tasks-I will not run away.Instead,I will face them bravely,
break big problems into small parts and keep trying until I make it.I want to be a person like him:persistent,fearless and
always moving forward.
