School education is very important and useful, 23 no one can learn everything from school. A teacher, no matter 24 he knows, cannot teach his students everything they want to know.

It’s the end of the class. When the bell rings, students of Luohu Foreign Languages School in Shenzhen quickly take out their cell phones. They want to log on (登录) to their micro blogs to check the interesting things that they have happened in the last hour.
Since last year, the trend (潮流)of micro blogging has swept the country. Recent surveys show that most students in middle schools have a micro blog and some even update (更新) their blogs over five times per day.
“We learn many fresh and interesting things on micro blogs and they have become popular topics in class,” said Andy Liang, 14. “If you don’t know about them, you are out of loop.”
It is also a great place for students to let out stress. “My parents always ask me to study all the time, and encourage me before exams, but it really adds pressure,” said Simon Zhang, 15. “When I share these feelings on my micro blog, I get many replies from friends in the same situation, which makes me feel better.”
But parents are worried that micro blogging could be a waste of time. Some misleading messages may even cause danger to kids, they said.
Mr. Shen, a professor at the China Education Association, suggests parents not worry too much as long as kids are not crazy about micro blogging. Maybe it can become a window for parents to understand their children . “If parents can read their children’s micro blogs, they will know their thoughts, thus leading to better communication and solutions to problems,” he said. He also gives some tips for kids.
Don’t micro blog for more than oe hour a day.
Never micro blog in class.
Try to talk face to face with people from time to time.
Be critical (批判性的). Don’t trust all the messages on a micro blog.
( )39. The underlined part “out of loop” in the passage probably means _______.
A. Not popular B. Not excited C. unhealthy D. unlucky
( )40. Micro blog made Simon ______ when he shared his feelings and got replies on his micro blog.
A. Feel sad B. let out stress C. add pressure D. make friends
( )41. We can know from Mr. Shen that micro blogging can _______.
A. make kids crazy while logging on to it
B. bring a lot of misleading messages
C. become a window to understand young kids
D. lead to worse communication

A famous teacher was speaking to the students at our school. He began his lesson by holding up a ¥100 bill. Then he said to the three hundred students, “Who would like this ¥100 bill?” The students began to put up their hands at once.
Then he said, “I am going to give this ¥100 to one of you, but first, let me do this.” He then made the bill into a ball. Then he said, “Who wants it now?” The hands went back into the air.
“Well,” he said, “What if I do this?” and he dropped it on the floor and stepped on it. He picked up the dirty, crumpled bill and said, “Who still wants it?” Hands went back into the air.
“My friends,” he said, “you have learned a valuable lesson today. No matter (无论) what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not go down in value (价值). It was still worth ¥ l00!”
Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and stepped on by the chances we take and the things that happen to us. We feel as if we are worth nothing. But remember, no matter what has happened to you, you will never lose your value: you are always valuable to those people who love you. Your value doesn’t come from what you do or whom you know, but WHO YOU ARE.
You are special and valuable. Don’t ever forget it!
( ) 42. Even though it was dirty, the money _______.
A. still went up in value B. was worth nothing
C. didn’t go down in value D. was still ours
( ) 43. We are always valuable to the people _______.
A. who pay us B. who call us C. who hate us D. who love us
( ) 44. Your value doesn’t come from what you do but _______.
A. who you know B. who made you
C. who you remember D. who you are
( ) 45. The sentence “Hands went back into the air” means “_______”.
A. the students put up their hands again
B. the students put down their hands
C. the students put their hands behind their backs again
D. the students put their hands in front of them
( ) 46. Why did the famous teacher use a ¥100 bill at his lesson?
A. Because he wanted to make the bill into a ball.
B. Because he used to drop a bill on the floor and stepped on it.
C. Because he was going to give the bill to one of his students.
D. Because he wanted to make the students know what value was.

You will have a lot of reading to do in this grade this year. You can do more of it in less time if you learn to read rapidly. Perhaps you have been told about some habits (习惯) which keep a person from reading fast and have been strongly asked to break those habits which you might have. Do you still have any of these bad habits? Check yourself by answering “yes” or “no” to these questions.
(1) Do you move your lips (嘴唇) when reading silently?
(2) Do you point to words with your finger as you read?
(3) Do you move your head from side to side as you read?
(4) Do you read one word at a time?
If you answer “yes” to any of these questions, start at once to break the habit. If you move your lips, hold your fingers over them, or hold a piece of paper between your lips while you are reading. Then if your lips move, your will know it and can stop them.
If you point to words, hold the two sides of your book, one side with your left hand, the other side with your right hand. Then you won’t have a free finger to use in pointing while reading. If you move your head, place your chin (下巴) in one hand and hold your head still (静止不动的).
If you read no more than one or two three words at a time, you need to work very hard in learning to take in (吸收) more words at each glance (一瞥) as your eyes travel across the lines of words.
Even if you do rather fast now, you can learn to read even faster. As you probably have been told, the secret of fast reading is to take in whole groups of words at each glance. Read in thought groups and force (迫使) your eyes along the lines of words at fast as you can make them go. Anyone who practices doing these things will be able to read faster.
( ) 47. When you read, _________.
A. don’t keep your head still B. don’t hold your books with your hands
C. don’t stand up near a desk D. don’t use your finger to point to words
( ) 48. If you learn to read fast, _______
A. you can read more in less time B. you can write faster
C. you can understand better D. you can read less in more time
( ) 49. You must _____ those habits that we are talking about in this reading.
A. remember B. have C. get rid of (改掉) D. keep
( ) 50. This reading mainly about _______.
A. the way of reading fast B. the importance of fast reading
C. the bad habits in reading D. how to speak quickly

72. A sample:
Jiashan has practiced the project" Reduce Pressure and Improve Quality" for two years. All the schools are carrying out a series of activities on "Light burden, High quality" actively. As a student, I am for this project. Thanks to the project, we students needn’t do as much homework as before. We can take part in different kinds of school activities. And we have more spare time to do something that we’re interested in. In class we have more time to think and discuss. That’s good for our study. What’s more, the teachers pay more attention to their classes so that we become more interested in the lessons.
In a word, this project has made my life colorful and learn a lot that isn’t from books. It can not only reduce the students’ learning pressure but also improve the teaching quality.
