Ⅱ.阅读理解(每小题4分,共40分)
A
  So, it's exam time again. Have you done the necessary work to get good marks Sleeping with the textbook under the pillow(枕头)doesn't work. The best way is to space your practice out, rather than cram(塞) it all together. Just as a scientist called Tom Stafford advises, if you organize five hours of study into one hour a day, you'll remember more than if you study for five hours on one day.
   ▲  Get pens and paper and start working! Students who can test themselves earlier will be better at retrieving the knowledge from the memory and keep it in the long run. John Dunlosky, a professor in the US, suggests,“you start by reading a textbook with your favorite pens and colors, and then write down the important ideas on small cards.” While doing so, you actually try to test yourselves on them.
  Good revision(复习)should give you confidence, but if you are still worried, it's not harmful to follow some special customs. In Japan, it seems to be a tradition for students to eat Katsudon before a test. This is a bowl of rice with egg and pork pieces. The name of the dish makes people think of the word “katsu”, meaning “winning”. For some students in South Korea, the key to success is not washing their hair before an exam, because they believe they could wash all the knowledge out of their heads. And in different parts of the world, there are always those who believe in their “lucky underwear”.
  The bottom line is that you need to study, eat a good meal, sleep well on the eve of the test, and believe that your efforts will pay off.
  Good luck in your exam!
11.When you “space your practice out”, you    .
A.study for at least 5 hours on one day
B.sleep with your textbook under the pillow
C.organize 5 hours of study into one hour a day
12.The underlined word “retrieving” would probably mean “   ”.
A.filling in
B.getting back
C.giving away
13.Which sentence can be best put in  ▲  in Paragraph 2
A.Don't read your textbooks early.
B.Don't depend on memory alone.
C.Don't test yourselves very often.
14.Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 3
A.The word “Katsudon” sounds similar to “winning” in South Korea.
B.In some countries, washing hair brings bad luck after having exams.
C.Some people might wear special underwear before important events.
15.What does the writer advise students to do before tests
A.Prepare your exams well and be confident.

  Galileo Galilei was born in Pisa, Italy, in 1564. His father taught music while his mother cared for kids at home. The family was not wealthy, but Galileo's parents paid for him to go to school.
  At first Galileo planned to become a doctor, but he changed his mind. He liked a different kind of science—physics. In Galileo's time, not much was known about how objects moved. Centuries earlier, a Greek(希腊人)named Aristotle had written down his ideas about movements, and everyone seemed to believe them. Galileo questioned those ideas and did experiments(实验)that showed how things really worked. For example, Aristotle thought that a heavier object would fall faster than a lighter one of the same size and shape. No one had ever really tested this idea. It just seemed to be true. Then Galileo came along, dropped two balls from a high tower, and discovered that they hit the ground at the same time!
  In later years, Galileo became interested in how the stars and planets move. He watched the sky with a telescope(望远镜)he built himself. Once again, he saw things no one had ever seen before. For example, he saw that the moon was not smooth. Then he noticed that the sun had spots(斑点)that seemed to move. Galileo realized from his observations(观察)that the earth was moving around the sun. A Polish(波兰的)scientist named Copernicus had said this recently, but no one believed him. Galileo knew that Copernicus was right. Unluckily, Galileo's announcement got him into trouble with the Catholic Church. The Catholic Church said that the earth was at the center of the universe(宇宙)with the sun traveling around it. This was what people had long believed, but Galileo said it was untrue. So he was sent to jail(监狱). He was soon set free, but for the rest of his life he had to stay in his house and yard.
  Galileo died in 1642, but his work helped to change the world. He is sometimes called the “father of modern science” because he showed us how important it is to look carefully at things and to test out ideas with experiments.
16.Both Galileo and Copernicus believed that    .
A.two objects fall at the same speed
B.the moon is smooth
C.the earth goes around the sun
D.the earth is the center of the universe
17.We can infer from this passage that    .
A.Galileo's parents didn't value the education
B.all of Aristotle's ideas were proved to be wrong
C.Galileo knew Copernicus and exchanged letters with him
D.the Catholic Church was very powerful in Galileo's time
18.While Galileo stayed at home in his later years, he most probably    .
A.learned to play music
B.began to practice medicine
C.continued with his science experiments
D.wrote books on modern science
19.According to this passage, Galileo is called the “father of modern science” because he    .
A.was brave to fight against the church
B.questioned other scientists' ideas
C.built a telescope to look at the stars and planets
D.made careful observations and tested his ideas
20.Which would be a good title for this passage

  Ren came from a poor family in a village in Yiyuan County. She had to do more housework than other children when she was young because both her father and mother were in ill health. With support from her relatives and villagers, Ren completed her 12 year school study and was accepted by Qufu Normal University. But the four year university experience didn't go well. Her father died and then she had to care for her mother. At the difficult moment, it was her teacher, Li Zhenhua, who came to her and offered help.

  Ren works hard on teaching and taking care of her students. She also spends a part of her money helping two poor students. She received the China Youth May 4th Medal—the country's top honor for excellent young people.

How to be a good learner
As a good learner, we should have good habits and ways in learning.
We need to get ready for our lessons before class and listen carefully in class. After class, we must go over the lessons and finish our homework on time. It's good to study in groups and help each other.
As a student, working hard is important, but don't forget to do sports and keep healthy. We should do some reading in our free time. If we have any problems, we'd better ask others for help.
I hope all of these ways will be helpful to you.
