necessarily so, however. Anyone can become a better scholar if he or she wants to. Here"s how.
1. Plan your time carefully. When you plan your work, you should make a list of things that you have
to do. After making the list, you should make a schedule (日程表) of your time. First your time for eating,
sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying. Don"t forget to set aside enough time
for entertainment. A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will make you realize what is
happening to your time.
2. Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which may
be a desk or simply a comer of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or
television! When you sit down to study, concentrate on the subject.
3. Make good use of your time in class. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teacher
says. Really listening in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher
says.
4. Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes. Review the important points
that your teacher mentioned in class. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read
that material. This will help you understand the next class. If you do these things regularly, the material will
become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.
5. Develop a good attitude about tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have leamed about a
subject. They help you remember your new knowledge.
The world won"t end if you don"t pass a test, so don"t be overly worried.
There are other methods that might help you with your studying. You will probably discover many others
after you have tried these.
B. solve all your problems
C. find more time for your habits
D. know what is happening to your time
B. don" t have to take any notes
C. don" t have to do any work after class
D. can remember everything the teacher says
B. You should review everything your teacher mentioned in class.
C. If you have a good place to study, you"ll become a top student.
D. Planning work will make you clear about what to do and when to do it.
B. How to Improve Your Study
C. How to Pass a Test
D. How to Review Your Lessons

zero-g, and what 50 years exploration (探索) has taught the world.
Peggy Whitson
Age: 48
Astronaut since: 1996
Space time: Two six-month tours on the Intemational Space Station, in 2002 and 2007-2008.
"Mind is a lot more important than body. So is your ability to think in 3-D and imagine how to move things
in a different way than on earth. The second time I went to the station, it felt like coming home. I got
comfortable much more quickly. Everything is lifted while you"re up there, so you look younger. Being back
on earth is not pleas ant at first. Moving around is difficult, like playing basketball. But I had my physical
training for about a month after my retum."
Sunita Williams
Age: 43
Astronaut since: 1998
Space time: Six months on the space station in 2006-2007, including more than 29 hours of space walks.
"I learned after about a week how to fly beautifully without going too fast or shaking around. I had a hard
time remembering how to walk, I prefer flying! When you have that idea of being far away anti looking back
at the planet, you don"t see any cit- ies or countries. You see a very quiet place. Just as Gandhit-the Father of
the Na- tion in India, once explained the feeling of oneness in all of us. Seeing our planet from space, you
understand that."

Space time: One shuttle mission in 2007
"No matter how I was situated (处于…位置) the first day, it seemed that my body was upside down
(颠倒着). That might have been because all your blood comes to your head. And what memory do you have
in that situation? It"s like when you"re kids, hanging upside down."
B. A scientific article.
C. A textbook lesson.
D. A recorded interview.
B. One.
C. Two.
D. Three.

| A prairie is a type of grassland. Prairies are made up of a complete interdependent ecosystem. This means that all kinds of plants and animals in a prairie region depend on one another for survival (生存). The members of a prairie ecosystem include grasses, flowering plants, animals, soil (土壤), sand, and fire. You may look at a prairie and think there"s nothing there but grass, but that" s not true. Most of the prairie"s living things are below the ground. Underneath the prairie" s surface are roots and bulbs (根茎). The roots of the prairie flowers and grasses run deep. Some of them are as deep as 3.5 metres below the ground. It is impmtant for the roots to run deep because fires are a part of the prairie ecosystem. When a fire bums through the prairie, plants with shallow (not deep) roots can not survive. Plants that have deep root systems are able to survive the fires. When fire burns across a prairre, it bums dead plants from the top and returns those nutrients (养料) to the soil. This adds to the richness of the prairie soil. Prairies have some of the richest soil in the United States. This cycle of growth and buming has been going on for thousands of years. Big bluestem is the plant that gives parts of the prairie the name "tallgrass prairie". Big bluestem has very deep roots, and its stems (茎) are often 2 metres tall. The American bison (野牛) or buffalo, is the country" s largest land animal. Its home is on the prairies. In 1830, there were an estimated 30 million to 60 million bison in the United States. By 1889, Americans had made the bison population to fewer than l,000 animals. Through great efforts, bison are being reintroduced to the prairies. They are also kept in zoos. The bison population has grown to several hundred thousand today. Humans have put the prairie ecosystem in danger. Through constant farming, building, fire prevention, and ignorance( not knowing) of how the prairie works, the United States has lost much of its natural prairie. Through education and other work , we can hope to save some of it. |

| Geography is the study of Earth and its climates. Scientists use it to study global (全球的) warming and track (跟踪) the weather. Govemments use it to leam where people live and work and to plan what to do with the land. It is now easier than event. use geography because of a science called space technology. The United States launched its first satellite in 1958. Some space missions (使命) that followed were geographical studies. In fact, earth science is a big part of the work of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). Astronauts looked out of the space shuttle (航天飞机). They decided to take photographs of Earth from their vantage point. Over the years, picture quality improved. Shuttle photography now shows land features, such as rivers. It can even show the streets oflarge cities. Photos of the same places at different times show how the land is changing. NASA does not use just photographs, though. In 1958 it launched TIROS (the Television Infrared Observation Satellite). This first use of a satellite to study Earth was effective (有效的) in giving weather forecasts. It led to the creation of new space tools to use in geography. The Landsat Program began in 1972. This satellite sent detailed (细致的) views of Earth from space. The pictures were so precise (精确) that scientists could count the number and kinds of crops in a field. Landsat showed where Earth"s surface had faults along which earthquakes might happen. This information helped in the planning of new cities and factories. Landsat also made discoveries. In Antarctica it located ranges of unknown mountains. It pinpointed small lakes in Virginia that were not on maps. Landsat, now more advanced, still flies today. Another space tool is Earth Observing - 1 (EO - 1). This spacecraft fiies right behind Landsat. It takes pictures of the same sites. The two sets of pictures, viewed together, show how cities grow and how other places, such as rain forests, become smaller over time. This helps scientists learn how people affect (影响) geography. One of the newest space tools is the Geographical Information Systems ( GIS). CIS is computer software that helps scientists to study Earth. CIS is different from ear- lier space tools. Businesses, schools, and even average people-not just the government-can use it to show them how changes in the planet might affect them. |

| It seems school children all over the world complain about their school food. Cherie Blair, the wife of Prime Minister Tony Blair, said that she would prepare a packed lunch for her son if school dinners do not improve. So what do students of your age eat for lunch at school? Japan High schools have canteens, which serve everything from noodles to rice, but not burgers and chips. Other children bring food from home such as cold rice balls, meat or fish, pickles and vegetables. Students take home a menu for the coming month containing notes on nutrition (营养) value. Twice a year parents are invited to have a taste of the food. The class with the fewest leftovers (剩饭) at the end of the month receives a prize. The United States A typical menu from a US school is made up of a hamburger with fried potatoes or roast chicken, lettuce and pickles, fruit and cookies. School lunches must also provide at least one-third of the daily dietary allowances (定量) of protein, vitamin A, vitamin C, iron, calcium, and calories (卡路里). Australia Meat pies, sausage rolls and hotdogs are all traditional dishes in Australian school shops. But as the nation pays more attention to children"s health, healthier foods have started to find their way onto school menus. Many schools have used a traffic light system. The sale of red-labelled foods, including pastries, chocolate and soft drinks, is served only twice a week. Healthier green-labelled foods such as sushi, sandwiches, com and watermelon, however, are served every day. In some schools, students have a choice of up t0 89 foods to choose from, including popcorn and rice. South Africa Most of South Africa"s schools do not serve meals at all. Classes end at 1:30 p. m. and students get their own lunches. Many students bring food from home, usually sandwiches. Fast food and fried food sell the best among students, which has led to a rise in obesity among children. But as more people began to realize the fact that being too fat may cause different diseases, some schools in towns have led the way towards better nutrition. Now students at these schools are provided with lunches of porridge with vegetables, such as cabbages, onions, beans, carrots and tomatoes. |
