Maybe you have seen this in schools: some students are studying nearly all the time but they just pass their exams, while some others may spend much less time on their books but do much better ill exams. How could this happen? People used to think that hard work is the only way to success, but now they have understood that smart work can make them succeed, too.
Hard workers don't mind working for long hours, while smart workers always think of several different answers to these questions, “Why should I suffer(遭受) this?” “Isn’t there a better way to do this?” Thanks to these people, we can use computers instead of the abacus now. Progressing in every field(领域) is the direct result of “try to find a better way” by smart workers.
There was a large soap factory in Japan. Once it received an unusual letter from someone who complained that there was no soap in the soapbox he bought.
How could empty soapboxes go out of the factory? The engineers checked the producing and packing. The production was fine, but in about one in ten thousand cases(情况), the packing machine let an empty soapbox go. There was no need to spend a lot of money repairing the machine for such a small problem. The engineer soon worked out a solution. He put a huge X-ray machine and two large computers to find out the empty soapboxes. After teaching the workers how to use it, he sat down in his seat, exhausted.
“Sir, we could have solved the problems in a much simpler and cheaper way,” a worker said.
“Really? How?”
“We can put a huge fan near the packing machine. The wind coming from the fan will blow away the empty boxes, leaving the other boxes with soap.”
See, this is smart work. In order to succeed, we should not only work hard like the engineer, but also think smart like this worker.
6. Some students spend less time on schoolwork but do better in exams ________.
A. because of their hard work
B. because of different education
C. because they try to find a better way
D. because they study for a longer time
7. Someone wrote to the soap factory and complained that ＿＿＿＿.
A. the soapbox that he bought was empty
B. the soap was too expensive
C. the soap that he bought was terrible
D. their service was very bad
8. _________ is a simpler and cheaper way to solve the problem.
A. Repairing the machine
B. Putting a huge fan
C. Putting two large computers
D. Putting a huge X-ray machine
9. The underlined phrase “blow away” in the passage means_____________
A. 停止 B. 远离 C. 吹走 D. 逃脱
10. The article mainly tells us we should ____________ in order to succeed.
A. work hard for long hours and study all the time
B. work hard like the engineer and think smart like the worker
C. spend much less time on our schoolwork than before
D. spend enough money repairing the machine for any problem

Bookstores are second homes for readers. Although many people can now buy books online, many readers still like the feeling in bookstores. They can touch(触摸) the books and smell the print.
In China, there are many special bookstores. Sanlian Taofen Bookstore became the first 24-hour bookstore in Beijing at the beginning of April. Popular Holdings in Shanghai is a film-themed bookstore. It has film books and posters. Eslite Bookstore in Taiwan often has activities like talks with famous writers.
At the same time, bookstores outside China can be very colorful, too. Scarthin Books is a small bookstore in the UK. It sells new and second-hand books. There are more than 100,000 books lying on the shelves of the store’s 12 rooms. Bart’s Books in the US is a good place to enjoy the sunshine(阳光) while reading books. It’s an outdoor bookstore. Bookshelves are on the street. When the store is closed, people can still buy books. They just put money into the door’s coin box. Where can you find a café, bar and bookstore in just one place? The answer is probably El Pendulo in Mexico. Books line(排列成行) the walls of the store. On the second floor, visitors can order everyday meals in the café and drinks from the bar. In order to keep cool, there are green plants and trees inside. Does it look like a park?
11. ______ special bookstores inside China are mentioned(提到) in the passage.
A. 2 B. 3 C. 5 D. 6

W: Hello, Bill. This is Mary. I’m calling to remind you we’re going to the Rose Mountain Park to have our school picnic tomorrow. The park is not so far, so we’ll go by bike. That’s to say, we can enjoy the beautiful scenes along the way. Mr. Brown will be waiting for us at 8:30 in front of our school gate. Make sure that you come on time! He doesn’t like being late! By the way, don’t forget to take the game book and some apples with you. We’ll play some interesting apple games there. I hope our team will win! It’s important for us to win this time because we won’t have another chance to beat the others in this term! See you tomorrow morning, then.
句式精讲
1. What about / How about you?
(1)“What about…= How about…”意为“……怎么样”，用来征求别人的意见，了解情况或提出建议。其后可以接名词或者是代词，接代词时要用宾格。例如：
What about the book? 那本书怎么样？
I like this car, what about you? 我喜欢这辆汽车，你呢？
(2)What about后接动词时一定要用动词的-ing形式，例如：
What about going shopping?去购物怎么样？
What about drinking a cup of tea? 喝杯茶怎么样？
2. Neither my parents nor I think I can make a good accountant.
neither…nor…为连词短语，连接两个相同的句子成分，表示两者都否定。例如：
It’s neither cold nor hot. 天气既不冷也不热。
He neither knows nor cares what happened.
他对所发生的事既不知道也不关心。
【注意】
neither…nor…连接主语时，通常根据就近原则，要求谓语动词与最邻近主语的人称、数保持
一致。例如：
Neither you nor I am wrong.你和我都错了。
Neither he nor she was at home. 他和她都不在家。
3. You either take the lead or fall behind.
(1) either 作副词，意为“也不”，用在否定句中。例如：
He can’t play the violin. I can’t, either.
他不会拉小提琴，我也不会。
(2) either 做代词，意为“（两者中）任意一个”。例如：
There are many trees on either side of the street.
在街道的每一边都有很多树。
(3) either…or…为连词短语，连接两个相同的句子成分，意为“要么……要么……；或者……
或者……；不是……就是……”。例如：
He either stays at home or visits friends on the weekend.
在周末，他要么待在家里，要么拜访朋友。
They will come either tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
他们不是明天来，就是后天来。
【注意】
either…or…连接两个主语时，谓语动词的形式与紧靠谓语的那个主语的形式保持一致，即遵循就近原则。例如：
Either I or he is on duty today.
今天不是我值日，就是他值日。
4. Carelessness will be a disaster not only to ourselves but also to patients.
???(1) not only...but also…的意思是“不但……而且……”，连接两个并列成分，如果连接两个主语的时候，谓语动词和also后面的主语保持一致。例如：
Not only my mother but also I like to go to the garden.
不仅妈妈而且我也喜欢去公园。
以not only…but also 开头的句子往往引起倒装。例如：
Not only did he complain about the food, but he refused to pay for it.
他不仅抱怨饭不好吃，而且拒绝付饭钱。
5. I want to share the best art with people, so I’m always searching for something better or different.
(1) so可以用作连词，表示“那么，因此，所以”。当“因此，所以”讲时，不能和because连用。例如：
So what do you like for breakfast?
那么你早餐喜欢吃什么？
I got up late, so I was late for school.
我起床晚了，所以迟到了。
(2) so还可以作副词，意为“如此，这么”。例如：
She is so beautiful. 她是如此的漂亮。
6. I think we can read about these for fun, but we shouldn’t believe in them.
(1) for fun意为“出于消遣；为了好玩”。例如：
I decided to learn Spanish, just for fun.
我决定学习西班牙语，只是为了消遣。
(2) fun作形容词，意为“逗乐的，有趣的”。例如：
This game looks fun！这个游戏看起来有趣！
(3) fun作不可数名词，意为“娱乐，乐趣；享乐的事”，可用much；lots of；a lot of等修饰。例如：
It was a lot of fun. 其中有很多乐趣。
【拓展】
have fun意为“玩得高兴，有趣”，相当于have a good time或enjoy oneself，其后接doing sth.
或with sth.。例如：
We had fun talking and playing with him.
我们和他一起聊天，玩得很高兴。
He has fun with computer games.
他玩电脑游戏很开心。
