19、t they are trying to do during a particular session. The best way to overcome these difficulties and to start to study efficiently is to plan your time and organize your work.Let us suppose that you have 15 hours per week of classes and that you decide to allow yourself a 40-hour working week, (a re

20、asonable figure, leaving you 70 waking hours for other activities.)You now have to decide how to occupy the remaining 25 hours of private study. Naturally the decision you make will change from week to week according to what assignments任務have to be done. Many people find it helpful to plan each week

21、 a seven day timetable showing the occasions on which they will be working privately and the particular subjects that they will be studying on each occasion. By checking such a plan at times during the week, you can see what still to do.Where to study? There are a number of places where you can stud

After a while the familiar surroundings will help you to get into the right state of mind as soon as you sit down.b.Find somewhere with as few distractions(干擾) as possible.c.Make sure that your study place has a good light and is warm(but n

At the busstopB. On the trainC. At homeD. At the libraryCWe all know that when leaves fall to the groun

27、d they die and become food for worms. When worms pass the leaves, their waste can help to make the soil rich, from which the plants use to get their nutrition. The plants grow and provide food for animals. When the animals eat their plants, their waste goes back into the soil. Its perfect circle.But

28、 at the Elephant Conservation Centre in Lampang, Northern Thailand, they are using elephant waste for something more to make 100% natural, beautiful colorful paper products! 100 years ago over 100,000 elephants in Thailand worked on farms, building sites and even in the army. However, only 6,000 rem

29、ain there today because of advances and technology that have made elephants old work less necessary. Elephants are doing new jobs now, including entertaining tourists by painting and playing football, and now by helping in the paper making industry. And their keepers, called Mahouts, can earn a livi

30、ng for their families and help their elephants by using elephants waste, also called “dung to make beautiful, natural, paper products without any bad smell.Every day an adult elephant eats about 200kg of plants like bamboo, grass and watermelon seeds. His body system breaks the plants in 50kg of fib

31、ers, which can produce 115 sheets of fibrous paper.The first step to make this special natural paper is to collect the fiber rich “dung from the elephant. The next step is to wash it and boil it for five hours to kill bacteria. (The water they use in this progress is reused to water plants at the Ce

32、ntre, which, in turn, feed the elephants). After its boiled, they cut fibers up. During the cutting progress, they add in the desired color of paper. For the fourth step, they take the mixture and make balls of 300g. Each ball is then spread lightly over bamboo frames to dry into one large sheet of

33、paper. After a few hours in the sun, the sheets are dry enough to remove. The result is a wonderful, 100% natural, recycled paper. People around the world are getting interested in buying this special elephant paper for their holiday cards, writing paper and much more, because its beautiful, natural

34、 and helps so many.57. Why are there fewer elephants in Thailand today than before?A. Because they dont have enough food.B. Because they were killed in the war.C. Because the technology develops very fast.D. Because the Mahouts dont want to keep them.58. What is the famous product mentioned in the p

35、assage?A. Elephant paperB. DungC. Fibers.D. Bamboo frames59. What are the exact words to describe the whole progress of the product?A. Common, interesting, and inexpensive.B. Unusual, amazing, and perfect.C. Impossible, special, but necessary.D. Natural, wonderful and common.60. What is the passage

36、mainly about?A. The steps to make paper.B. The number of elephants in Thailand.C. The paper-making industry in Thailand. D. A new type of paper elephant paper.DIt is natural for young people, at times, to blame their parents for most the misunderstandings between them. They have always complained th

37、at their parents are out of touch with modern ways; that they do not trust their children to deal with problems; that they talk too much about certain problems, and that they have to no sense of humor, at last in parent-child relationships. I think it is true that parents often look down upon their

38、teenage children and also forget how they themselves felt, when young.For example, young people like doing things without careful consideration; it is one of their ways of showing that they can accept a challenge. Older people worry more easily: most of them plan things ahead, at least in the back o

39、f their minds, and do not like their plans to be upset by something unexpected.So my advice to you is this: when you want to borrow the family car or get your mother to mend something for you, you will have better success if you can possibly ask in advance.Young people often annoy their parents with

40、 their choices in clothes and hairstyles, in entertainers and music. This is not the main reason. They feel cut off from the adult world. So they create a culture and society of their own. Then, if it turns out that their music and entertainers, or vocabulary, clothes and hairstyles annoy their pare

41、nts, this gives them additional enjoyment. They feel they are better, at least in a small way, and they are leaders in style and taste.Sometimes you dont obey because you do not want your parents to accept what you do. If they did accept, it looks as if you are tricking your own age group. But in th

42、at case, you are supposing that you are the underdog: you cant win but at least you can keep your honor. This is a passive way of looking at things. It is natural enough after long years of childhood, when you were completely under your parents control. But it ignores the fact that you are now begin

43、ning to be responsible for yourself.If you plan to control your life, co-operation can be part of the plan. You can impress others, especially parents, with your sense of responsibility, so that they will give you the right to do what you want to do.61. According to the passage, all the following co

44、mplaints are true EXCEPT that _.A. parents have no sense of humor at allB. parents are always behind the timesC. parents talk too much about certain problemsD. parents dont believe their children can deal with crises62. What does the author suggest to young people to win support from their parents?A

45、. Ignoring them.B. Controlling themC. Entertaining themD. Cooperating with them.63. We can learn from the passage that _. A. young people are not allowed to join adult society because they have their own culture.B. it is impossible for young people to get along well with older people.C. older people

46、 tend to forget how they felt when they were young.D. older people often lead the way in fashion.64 The underline word “underdog in the 5th paragraph refers to a person who _.A. keeps dogs as petsB. seems less likely to succeedC. likes to cheat his own age groupD. looks down upon others around himET

The phone of the “Nightline rang yet again and Morrie asked his helper, Connie to get it. She had been taking down the callers names in Morries small black appointment boo

48、k.

51、r paycheck, and I never even realized I was doing it. Yet here was Morrie talking with the wonder of our college years, as if Id simply been on a long vacation.“Have you found someone to share your heart with? he asked.“Are you trying to be as human as you can be?I felt ashamed, wanting to show I ha

52、d been trying hard to work out such question. What happened to me? I once promised myself I would never work for money, that I would join the Peace Corps, and that I would live in beautiful, inspirational places.Instead, I had been in Detroit for ten years, at the same workplace, using the same bank

53、, visiting the same barber. I was thirty-seven, more mature than in college, tied to computers and moderns and cell phones.
