Whether you’re a boy or a girl and whether you’re a freshman or a senior,developing the following skills will help you achieve success in school and in life.
Timemanagement.There are just 24 hours in each day.What you do with that time makes all the difference.While high school students have an average of 35 hours per week of class time,college students have an average of 15 to 18 hours per week.Manage your free time wisely and you’ll make full use of each day.
Goodstudyhabits.If you’ve got them,it’s great.If
not,there’s still time to develop them.Good study habits include the following:
·Always be prepared for class,and attend classes regularly.No cutting!
·Finish homework in a timely manner.
·Review your notes daily rather than study for tests the night before.
·Set aside quiet time each day for study,even if you don’t have homework or a test the next day!
Goodnote-taking.You can’t possibly set down everything the teacher says since we talk at a pace of about 225 words per minute.But,you do need to set down the important
materials.Note-taking should be in a way that’s the most helpful to you.You can try writing notes on different coloured cards.If you really have a problem with note-taking,you might ask your teacher if you can record daily lessons.Do whatever it takes!
Reviewofdailynotes.Don’t wait until the night before the test to review your notes.Go over your notes each day while the lecture is still fresh in your mind.Add any missing pare your notes with a classmate’s notes.Review your notes each day to improve your learning and build towards your final goal:mastery of the subject or skill.
21.If you want to form good study habits,you should .

Robby was 11 when his mother dropped him off for his first piano lesson.I prefer that students begin at an earlier age.Robby
insisted that it had always been his mother’s dream to hear him play the piano,so I took him in as a student.
Robby tried and tried while I listened and encouraged him and gave him more instructions.But he just did not have any inborn ability.
I only saw his mother from a distance.She always waved and smiled but never came in.Then one day Robby stopped coming to our lessons.I thought about calling him but I guessed he had decided to try something else.
I was also glad that he stopped coming for the sake of my career.However,several weeks before the recital(音乐演奏会) of my students,Robby came,telling me that he never stopped practising and begged me to allow him to take part in it.I agreed but I made him perform last in the programme,so I could always save his poor perfor mance through my “curtain closer”.
I was surprised when he announced that he had chosen one piece of Mozart’s.Never had I heard a piece of Mozart’s played so well by someone at his age.When he finished,everyone was cheering.
I ran up and put my arms aroun d Robby in joy.“I’ve never heard you play like that,Robby!How’d you do it?”
“Well,Miss Hondorf.Do you remember I told you my mum was sick?Actually she died this morning.She was born deaf so tonight was the first time she could hear me play.I wanted to make it special.I knew I could.”That night,Robby was the teacher and I was the student.He taught me so many important things about life.
24.Why did Robby stop coming to the piano lessons suddenly?
A.He lost heart and believed that he would never make it.
B.His mother was too sick to send him to the piano lessons.
C.He thought his teacher disliked him.
D.His mother died and he didn’t need to play any longer.
25.Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?
A.The writer thought playing the piano shouldn’t start too late.
B.The writer thought that Robby had given up the piano lesson.
C.The writer taught Robby carefully although he hadn’t a gift for music.
D.No one else could play the piece of Mozart’s well.
26.From the underlined sentence we can infer that .
A.the writer looked down upon Robby and disliked him
B.the writer thought Robby a bad advertisement for his teaching
C.with Robby present,the other children couldn’t play well
D.the writer couldn’t teach so many students at a time

Music is not just a set of sounds and rhythms.Its influence on the brain is much deeper than any other human experience.Keep on reading to know all those amazing powers of music.
A recent study suggests that preterm(早产的) babies appear to eore when listening to music.Eanoj Kumar of the University of Alberta,Canada,found that music had a beneficial effect on reducing
pain for preterm babies eedical tests.It also appeared to benefit full-term babies during operations.
Many people eage have speech and movement-related problems.Music can help recover from brain injuries.As a different and effective treatment,doctors often advise such patients to listen to good music to improve the parts of the brain responsible for these two functions.When people with neurological(神经系统的) disorders hear a musical beat,it helps them to regain a balanced walk.
Though music cannot make deafness disappear,it really can stave off the loss of hearing.There was an experiment involving 163 people where 74 were musicians.Participants were asked to pass some listening tests.Musicians heard the sounds better than
non-musicians,and this difference gets clearer with age.This means that a 70-year-old musician hears better than a 50-year-old
non-musician,even in a noisy environment.
Besides,music mends a broken heart.It is not about a
thrown-away love,but about a heart attack.The matter is that music
can help people recover from a heart attack or heart operation by reducing blood pressure,slowing down the heartbeat rate,and reducing anusic produces positive emotions,improves the movement of blood,and eoting quick recovery of the whole cardiovascular(心血管的) system.
28.How does music affect preterm babies?
A.It helps reduce their pain.
B.It helps develop their potential in music.
C.It helps improve their hearing systems.
D.It helps repair their neurological systems.
29.What does t he underlined phrase “stave off” in paragraph 4 mean in Chinese?
A.导致
B.增强
C.延缓
D.促进
30.Why can music mend a broken heart?
A.It has a positive effect on human body systems’ work.
B.It can help people prevent diseases caused by anake a person feel optimistic about life.
D.It can help patients recover in a slow way.
31.What may be the best title for the te music
B.The best time to listen to music
C.The way to choose quality music
D.How music affects our mind and body
D
On Nov.18,1995,Itzhak Perlman,the violinist,came on stage to give a concert.If you have ever been to a Perlman concert,you know that getting on stage is no small achievement for him.He was stricken with polio(小儿麻痹症) as a child,and so he walks with the aid of two crutches(拐杖).
The audience sat quietly while he made his way across the stage to his chair and began his play.But this time,something went wrong.Just as he finished the first few bars,one of the strings on his violin broke.We thought that he would have to stop the
concert.But he did n’t.Instead,he waited a moment,closed his eyes and then signaled the conductor to begin again.
Of course,anyone knows that it is impossible to play a pleasant work with just three strings.I know that,and you know that,but that night Itzhak Perlman refused to know that.
When he finished,there was a breathtaking silence in the room.And then people rose and cheered.There was an extraordinary outburst of applause from every corner of the auditorium (礼堂).
He smiled,wiped the sweat from his brow and then he said,“You know,sometimes it is the artist’s task to find out how much music you can still make with what you have left.”
This powerful line has stayed in my mind ever since I heard it.And who knows?Perhaps that is the meaning of life—not just for artists but for all of us.
So,perhaps our task in this fast-changing,puzzling world in which we live is to make music,at first with all that we have,and then,when that is no longer possible,to make music with what we have left.
32.What made Itzhak Perlman’s performance at the concert special on Nov.18,1995?
A.He was recovering from an operation.
B.He was late for the stage.
C.He had a quarrel with the audience.
D.His string of violin got broken.
33.Why didn’t Itzhak Perlman accept the fact on the stage?
A.He was a person of self pride.
B.He thought the audience didn’t see that.
C.He decided to succeed with fewest conditions.
D.He didn’t see the string get broken at all.
34.Why did the audience give heated claps to Itzhak Perlman?
A.They were moved by his disease.
B.They were moved by his spirit.
C.They were laughing at his action.
D.They were encouraging him to cheer up.
35.What is the best title for the passage?
A.When you lose the most important thing
B.How can you give it up easily?
C.Playing a violin with three strings
D.Playing a violin to yourself

Too often a wrong view gets around us that it is our physical conditions that make us happy or unhappy.As a result,physical conditions have been overstated.
36 ,that is,a good standard of living,high goals that we want to achieve,surrounding ourselves with a nice house,nice cars,nice clothes,etc. 37 .But many times once we achieve our goals and are surrounded by what we thought would make us happy,we are still unhappy.Also on the other end of the stick,many,many people are unhappy now,because they have not achieved their goals and 38 ,which,as a result,adds to their dissatisfaction with life.
So this is why so many people keep themselves for most of their lives in a state of incompleteness and unhappiness,and this is why so many super successful people still aren’t happy.The reason is that 39 .They think that the universe should give them what they want first and then they’ll be happy.But that just puts a barrier in between them and happiness,because of the way the universe is set up.
The message here is to understand that your desires tell you where you want to put your focus in your life;however, 40 .You make yourself happy from the inside out.Not the outside in.Do not require certain conditions be met for your happiness,because it won’t work anyway.
A.We have different ways to get what really makes us happy
B.they don’t have what they want in life
C.We want to become happy by trying to control all the wonderful conditions around ourselves
D.they are never there to be found in life
E.they should not control your happiness in this moment
F.We may think this is the key to our happiness
G.they don’t realise how to become happy

it to the forest.And I agreed.David and I got on the bike and David started going fast.
As we rode through the forest,I felt the wind brushing my face.It felt so great and free.Suddenly the bike hit a fallen branch and we went flying off the bike.Lying on the ground,I felt dizzy(眩晕的).I checked myself for injuries and saw some but they didn’t bother me.

problems.Also,when I have too much pressure with my schoolwork,music can make me feel relae difficulty with sleep,some soft music can help me fall asleep easily.Finally,when I am in a state of worry,music can calm me down.All in all,music is so important that life is a journey through a desert if there is no music in our life.
