Do they have any secrets? You may wonder. The children at the top of the class succeed by knowing a few basic skills that others can easily learn. According to the education experts and students themselves, here are the secrets of top students. 热线 :010-57515980
Study is the first thing. Once the books are open or the computer is on, phone calls are unanswered, TV shows unwatched, snacks unnoticed. Study is business; business comes before everything. Study anywhere or everywhere. Study times are different for different children. Some work late at night when the house is quiet. Others wake early. Still others study as soon as they come home from school. However, all agree that consistency ( 持之以恒 ) is needed. Get organized. Don t waste time looking for a pencil or missing paper. Keep everything right where one can put one s hands on it. Even for a student who doesn t keep his own study area organized, a bag or a drawer is needed to put things in to save time. Learn how to read. The secret of good reading is to be an active reader one who continually asks questions that lead to a full understanding of the writer s message. Use your time best. Even the best students put off their work sometimes. But when that happens, they face it. If you want to be at the top, make sure to finish the work on time. says Christi Anderson, a top student at Lyman High School. Take good notes and use them. Reading the text is important, but the teacher is going to test you on what he or she emphasized ( 强调 ). That s what you find in your notes. Another kind of important secret of the top students is not so secret at all. For almost all of them, their parents help is important. 48. If we want to save time for study, we had better. A. keep everything in hand B. get everything organized C. prepare for our school things D. organize ourselves into groups 49. In the writer s opinion, an active reader should. A. arrange time well B. learn reading skills C. understand the passage D. ask questions continually 50. According to the passage, which is NOT the secret of the top students? A. Manage your time well. B. Parents' help is unnecessary. C. Study comes before everything. D. Write down what the teacher emphasized and try to use them. 51. According to the writer, the real secret in becoming a top student lies in. A. Some learning experience B. the good teachers C. some basic learning skills D. the good education experts D When you make a mistake, big or small, cherish( 珍惜 ) it like it s the most valuable thing in the world. Because in some ways, it is. Most of us feel bad when we make mistakes, beat ourselves up about it, feel like failures, get mad at ourselves. And that s only natural: most of us have been taught from a young age that mistakes are bad, that we should try to avoid mistakes. We ve been blamed when we make 热线 :010-57515980
mistakes at home, school and work. Maybe not always, but probably enough times to make feeling bad about mistakes an unconscious( 无意识的 ) reaction. Yet without mistakes, we could not learn or grow. If you think about it that way, mistakes should be cherished and celebrated for being one of the most amazing things in the world: they make learning possible; they make growth and improvement possible. By trial and error trying things, making mistakes, and learning from those mistakes we have figured out how to make electric light, to paint the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, to fly. Mistakes make walking possible for the smallest toddler, make speech possible, make works of talent possible. Think about how we learn: we don t just consume information about something and immediately know it or know how to do it. You don t just read about painting, or writing, or computer programming, or baking, or playing the piano, and know how to do them right away. Instead, you get information about something, from reading or from another person or from observing, then you make mistakes and repeat, making mistakes, learning from those mistakes, until you ve pretty much learned how to do something. That s how we learn as babies and toddlers, and how we learn as adults. Mistakes are how we learn to do something new because if you succeed at something, it s probably something you already knew how to do. You haven t really grown much from that success at most it s the last step on your journey, not the whole journey. Most of the journey was made up of mistakes, if it s a good journey. So if you value learning, if you value growing and improving, then you should value mistakes. They are amazing things that make a world of brilliance possible. 52. Why do most of us feel bad about making mistakes? A. Because it s a natural part in our life. B. Because mistakes make us suffer a lot. C. Because mistakes have influenced our lives. D. Because we ve been taught so from a young age. 53. According to the passage, what is the right attitude to mistakes? A. We should try to avoid making mistakes. B. We should treat mistakes as good chances to learn. C. We should owe great inventions mainly to mistakes. D. We should make feeling bad about mistakes an unconscious reaction. 54. The underlined word toddler in Paragraph 6 probably means. A. a small child learning to walk B. a primary pupil learning to read C. a school teenager learning to write D. a kindergarten child learning to draw 55. What is the best title of this passage? A. Value Mistakes B. Mistakes Make Things Possible C. Try to Avoid Mistakes D. Life is a Journey Full of Mistakes 七 阅读短文, 根据短文内容, 从短文后的五个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项 每个选项只能用一次 ( 共 10 分, 每小题 2 分 ) 热线 :010-57515980

The world is so big that I want to have a look. many people would say. But travelling abroad now means much more than that for the growing number of Chinese tourists. Of course it offers us good opportunities to meet people from other countries, learn about their culture and customs. According to the United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), more than 1 billion people travelled to another country in 2012. In 2012, Chinese people travelled abroad 30 percent more than in 2011. In 2014, the number of outbound tourists has reached over 100 million for the first time. Compared with 2013, it has increased by 19.49%. Chinese has ranked first as the main source of the world tourism according to the report. The prosperity ( 繁荣 ) of the tourism industry can also bring both our country and foreign countries great economic benefits. Chinese people usually travel abroad in large tourist groups and visit several countries in one trip. Chinese people don t just travel for sightseeing. The China International Travel Service Company said that all their tour trips sold out a month before Christmas Day. Stores offered discounts ( 打折 ) during that time, so shopping in Europe and the United States is popular among Chinese travellers. In December, China is going through a very cold winter. So many people like to go to some countries in Southeast Asia because the weather there is quite pleasant. The improvement of living standards means more Chinese can travel abroad. But many of them don t have a sense of public manners. A report by Living Social website in March 2012 even listed Chinese as the world s second worst tourists. 热线 :010-57515980
