Some days before, I didn’t pass a vital exam, that made me depressed. I feel upset and cried alone in the classroom in secret. My best friend, Tom, found that I was in bad mood at that moment. After learning about what had happened, he spent a long time talk with me. He also gave me some good advices on how to get a good grade in the future. However, I was aware how to deal with my study and got relaxing. Tom is always there for him whenever I am in trouble. I’m proud of him.

    Several weeks ago, my grandfather was explaining his favorite expression, “Nothing is ever easy.” The following day, as I was working, I happened to _______ a large hairy bee on the skylight (天窗).

    Self-study is cheap, convenient, and you can set your own pace. However, you have to figure out for yourself what to study, how to keep up motivation and how to meet your goals.

Make learning fun

1. To keep you interested, supplement(补充)your study with materials that fit your personality and interests.

Don’t try to reinvent the wheel

For learning, it’s easy to believe that the smart self-studying student can use videos, apps, books, games all in a magical combination. 2. Don’t put all your faith in a game, free videos, or your own ability to create a better program than teaching professionals.

Build study into your daily life

Whether you’re a high school student or a college student, finding a spare hour to study is tough. 3. That’s really important.

Set realistic but ambitious goals and stick to them

You must make sure you make steady, regular progress. 4.

We recommend studying for 3 to 5 hours a day. If you have less time to study, that’s OK.

5. So daily practice—even just 10 minutes a day—is better than taking long breaks and then studying for hours at a time.

A.The key is to study every day.

B.I know this seems really obvious.

C.It’s difficult to know where to start.

D.The problem is that there is no structure to your courses.

E.You must find smart ways to force extra study into your daily life.

F.So it’s really important to make a study plan you can actually stick to.

G.To keep motivated over the long term, learning needs to be something you want to do.

    One of the most dangerous insects you need to watch out for during summer is mosquitoes. But no matter how you try to avoid them, some people naturally attract mosquitoes more than others.

One of the most important facts to remember is that mosquitoes track people down by smell and body odour(气味), according to Bart Knols, PhD, a biologist devoted to the study of mosquitoes. The carbon dioxide people breathe out, along with chemicals from the skin, creates an “odour plume” that mosquitoes can detect from up to almost 100 feet away. “Each person gives off more than 300 chemicals from the skin, more than 100 in breathing out,” Knols says.

The specific mixtures on the skin that mosquitoes respond to vary by species. The yellow fever mosquito and Asian tiger mosquito, for example, respond well to lactic acid from skin. African malaria mosquitoes respond to a mix of fatty acids, according to Knols. Your individual mixtures and smells determine how much of a mosquito attraction you are, depending on the mosquito species. The mix of chemicals you produce are only partly in your control. These chemicals depend on your genetic make-up, health condition, diet, skin pH, and so on. “Bacteria(细菌)on the skin break down the mixtures that we give off through our pores(毛孔), and these are the attractive smells,” Knols says. “So it is not actually we that attract mosquitoes, but the bacteria on our skin.”

Although this is a complex and partly understood phenomenon, Knols says that we do all have a unique smell. There are many folk stories about why some people are more or less attractive to mosquitoes. Some people falsely think the blood type is the cause, and others believe taking vitamin B or eating garlic makes people less attractive to mosquitoes—but Knols notes there’s no scientific data backing these claims.

1.What do we learn from the second paragraph?

A.Mosquitoes can detect people with smell. B.Nobody can avoid mosquitoes anyway.

C.A person breathes out over 300 chemicals. D.People naturally attract mosquitoes.

2.Why does the author take several kinds of mosquitoes for example?

A.To persuade readers to protect the environment.

B.To warn people against touching mosquitoes.

C.To show different mosquitoes react to mixtures.

D.To make people look out for poisonous mosquitoes.

3.What draws mosquitoes according to Bart Knols?

A.Chemicals in the mouth. B.Mixtures people give off.

C.Smells from the pores. D.Bacteria on the skin.

4.What is the best title for the text?

A.The Scientific Reason You Are a Mosquito Attraction

B.Folk Stories about How Mosquitoes Attack People

C.Attitudes toward Mosquitoes Different People Have

D.Ways to Make People More and More Attractive

    Drivers who drive a little too close to cyclists on the road could soon be caught on the spot. A new technology adopted by legal departments in Ottawa could help carry out legal distance between bikers and cars on the road.

The device, which is fixed on a bicycle’s handlebars like a bike bell, uses sonar(声呐) technology to measure the distance between the bike and passing cars. The device will make a loud noise if the car is within one meter of the bike, the legal limit in the city of Ottawa, allowing the police rider to radio ahead to his colleagues so that the driver can be pulled over. “The safety of all road users is extremely vital, including cyclists. These cycling changes are directed at encouraging cycling, promoting road safety, and sharing the road,” said Rob Wilkinson, coordinator of the Safer Roads Ottawa Program.

The authorities started the program last week with a single sonar device. One police officer rode the bike bearing the device around the city on Tuesday to prove the effectiveness(有效性) of the technology. Within a few minutes of riding, the device was beeping, registering that two drivers had violated the one-meter distance requirement. The drivers were pulled over and given brochures informing them that they had broken the safe distance law.

Wilkinson noted that the device is not currently being used to issue fines, which can go up to $110, and that there are no plans to use it for enforcement(执法)in the future. At this point, its main use is to spread awareness about the safe distance law, which was passed last September in an effort to encourage rider safety and reduce deadly crashes.

1.What will happen if the safe distance is beyond the legal limit?

A.The cyclist will soon be caught on the spot.

B.The police will make the driver stop by the road.

C.The driver will be arrested for driving too fast.

D.The device will at once call the police of itself.

2.What’s the main purpose of using the device?

A.To make the bicycle attractive. B.To encourage people to walk.

C.To guarantee road safety. D.To warn drivers of danger.

3.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “beeping” in paragraph 3?

A.Making a loud noise. B.Receiving an urgent message.

C.Sending a stop signal. D.Radioing the police rider.

4.What does Wilkinson say about the device?

A.It is being developed at present. B.It still has room for improvement.

C.It may be used to fine drivers later. D.It helps reduce traffic accidents.
