Many students study by reading their notes and textbooks over and over again. But studies show there are more effective ways to help you study smarter.
____1____ Many students know what they are expected to do. Yet many often fail to plan ahead. So they need first to set a reachable target. Break it into pieces and make them happen one by one. It may seem strange at first. But after two weeks or more, it becomes a normal thing.
Don’t just reread. ____2____ Rereading is like looking at the answer to a puzzle, rather than doing it yourself. It looks like it makes sense. But until you try it yourself, you don’t really know if you understand it.

Dig deeper. It’s hard to remember countless facts and figures if you don’t push further. Ask why things are a certain way. How did they come about? Why do they matter? Psychologists call this elaboration(深究). It’s taking class material and asking many how and why questions about it. ____4____
Practice more. Musicians practice their instruments. Athletes practice sports skills. ____5____ In a study, students took practice tests over several weeks. On the final test, they scored more than a full letter grade better, on average, than did students who studied the way they normally had.

Think—and travel—outside the box
“People who travel tend to be more creative,” said Darya Zabelina, a psychology professor at the University of Arkansas. Traveling encourages people to reexamine their models of reality. Some studies show that travelers have more creative success, and that people who enjoy unfamiliar experiences perform better on open-ended questions calling for many ideas. ___7___.
___8___
Generating ideas is one part of the creativity, but knowledge is required to identify the ones that will work. Even if mental speed declines, a person’s base of knowledge is well-preserved as it expands over time.

____13____ It takes a lot to pay for heating, cooling and electricity, which can also cost much energy.

The Story of Music

So, what is music?
This is difficult to answer, as everyone has their own idea. “Sound that conveys emotion” is what Jeremy Montagu of the University of Oxford and author of the article describes.
____62____
If we take singing, then controlling pitch(音高) is important. Scientists have studied the skulls and jaws of early apes, to see if they were able to make a sound and control pitch. Another important component of music is rhythm. Our early ancestors may have created rhythmic music by clapping their hands. ____63____
Many of these instruments are likely to have been made from soft materials like wood, and so haven't survived. What have survived are bone pipes. So, music is old, and may have been with us from when humans first evolved.
But why did it arise and why has it existed?
There are many possible functions of music. One is dancing. Another obvious reason for music is entertainment. ____64____
However, the major reason why music arises and exists may be that it brings people together. ____65____ He concludes: “It has even been suggested that music, in causing such bonding, created not only the family but society itself, bringing individuals together who might otherwise have lived alone.”
A.When did our ancestors begin making music?
B.Music can express certain emotion that you can feel.
C.This may be linked to the earliest musical instruments.
D.Our ancestors created music by beating stones or sticks by accident.
E.Has music always been important in human society, and if so, why?
F.Music can also be used for communication, often over large distances.
G.“Music leads to bonding, such as bonding between mother and child or bonding between groups,” explains Montagu.

Tying to eat heathily and get enough exercise can be difficult when your family refuse to get healthy with you. ___66___
Tell your family about your decision. ___67___ You will need their encouragement and support, even if they are not interested in joining you. Once your family see the progress you’ve made—whether you want to lose weight, increase your energy levels or get fit- they may be encouraged to join you!
___68___ It is an important part of becoming healthy. Eating healthy food in the correct proportions (比例) can help you and your family members to lose weight, increase energy, sleep better, have flawless skin and stronger hair, along with other benefits. You should try your best to persuade your family members to give up junk food.
Drink lots of water. Drinking water is a key part of a healthy diet and it makes your skin cleaner and takes weight off. ___69___ We mistake thirst for hunger, so when you feel hungry, try drinking a glass of water instead.
Exercise for half an hour per day. It is important to make exercise part of your plan to get healthy. ___70___ Exercise is always easier if you have someone else to do it with you. Even if your family aren’t ready to change their diet, they may be willing to join you for a daily run or dance class.
A.Eat a balanced diet.
B.Don’t share dishes with sick family members.
C.However, with the right attitude and some tips, you can still succeed.

Take a lot of food and drink with you and play games until it gets dark _71_ You will need a torch (手電筒)or else you won't be able to see all your sweets, and it might get a bit frightening.
_72_
Seriously. this is so important that it could save your life. If you can't swim well, you won't be able to do water sports like waterskiing and surfing. Even taking a boat trip will be dangerous for you Make sure you do it.

47.根據(jù)前句“It seems like common sense: eating local food should be better for the environment, because it does not need to be transported long distances and kept cold during transport. (這似乎是常識:吃當(dāng)?shù)氐氖澄飸?yīng)該對環(huán)境更好,因為它們不需要長途運輸,也不需要在運輸過程中保持低溫)”和后句“It is the production of food, not its transport, that uses most of the energy and produces most of the greenhouse gases.(消耗大部分能源和產(chǎn)生大部分溫室氣體的是糧食生產(chǎn),而不是糧食運輸)”可知,上文講“吃當(dāng)?shù)厥澄飳Νh(huán)境有好處”是一種常見的錯誤真理,下文作者解釋了原因,表明其中道理,上下文表轉(zhuǎn)折,說明事實并非那么簡單。所以選擇項C“Unfortunately, it is not that simple. (不幸的是,事情并沒有那么簡單)”符合上下文語境。故選C。
48.根據(jù)下文“It depends on how long you spend in the shower and how large your bath is.

(這取決于你花多長時間洗澡和你的浴缸有多大。如果你花在淋浴上的時間超過8分鐘,你就會用掉和泡澡一樣多的水——大約50升水。因此,關(guān)鍵是讓你的淋浴時間盡可能短)”可知,淋浴比泡澡更節(jié)約水的觀點是錯誤的。所以選擇項D“It’s better to take a shower than a bath. (洗淋浴比泡澡好)”符合上下文語境。故選D。
49.根據(jù)前句“Plastic bags cause litter and are a danger to wild animals. (塑料袋會造成垃圾,對野生動物是一種威脅)”可知,后文應(yīng)繼續(xù)陳述塑料袋的缺點,比如它具體如何威脅到野生動物的。所以選擇項A“They mistake them for food. (它們誤以為塑料袋是食物)”符合上下文語境。故選A。
50.根據(jù)前文“However, making a paper bag uses four times as much energy as making a plastic bag and up to three times the amount of water. The process also produces more greenhouse gases. (然而,制作一個紙袋所消耗的能量是制作塑料袋的四倍,水的用量是制作塑料袋的三倍。這個過程也會產(chǎn)生更多的溫室氣體)”可知,事實上塑料袋和紙袋都污染環(huán)境。所以選擇項F“In fact, both kinds of bags are bad for the environment. (事實上,這兩種袋子都對環(huán)境有害)”符合上下文語境。故選F。

2.根據(jù)空前句子“When you plan your week. You should ...studying shouldn’t occupy all of your time. ”(當(dāng)你計劃一周的時候。你應(yīng)該把你要做的事情列個清單。列完這個單子后,你應(yīng)該把你的時間安排好。決定一個好的,有規(guī)律的學(xué)習(xí)時間。當(dāng)然,學(xué)習(xí)不應(yīng)該占用你所有的時間) 可知,本段主要講述時間安排,我們要安排有規(guī)律的學(xué)習(xí)時間,但是學(xué)習(xí)不應(yīng)該占用你所有的時間。所以空白處應(yīng)講述我們應(yīng)給學(xué)習(xí)之外的事情也留有時間。選項B.Don’t forget to set aside enough time for entertainment(別忘了留出足夠的時間娛樂)就是對上文安排時間的補充說明。符合題意,故選B。

4.根據(jù)空前句子“When you get home from school, go over your notes, preview the important points that your teacher is going to discuss the next day, and read that material.”(放學(xué)回家后,復(fù)習(xí)筆記,預(yù)習(xí)第二天老師要講的要點,同時閱讀這些材料)可知,放學(xué)后我們要做好溫習(xí)和預(yù)習(xí)工作,所以此處應(yīng)該承接上文,闡述這樣做的意義是什么。選項G. This will help you understand the next class.(這將幫助你理解下一節(jié)課)承接上文,并且選項中this就是指代上文“放學(xué)回家后的預(yù)習(xí)和復(fù)習(xí)”。故選G。
5.根據(jù)空后句子“You will probably discover many others after you have tried these.”(在你試了這些方法后,你將可能發(fā)現(xiàn)許多其他的方法)可知除了上文所提及的方法外,你還可以用其他的方法。所以空白處應(yīng)總說還有其他的一些方法。選項A.There are other methods that might help you with your studying(還有其他方法可以幫助你學(xué)習(xí))引出下文,此外選項中的other methods與下文的others進行呼應(yīng)。故選A。
