The revision period is, arguably, the most difficult part of any exam process．The exam itself–usually between one and three hours． 1. However, the knowledge that it is the culmination of the entire process should provide some comfort．A well-structured revision plan can help you revise well．Below are my top tips for creating a well-structured and comprehensive revision plan, which will provide the best chance of success in the summer.
1． 2.
It ought to go without saying that planning your revision timetable must be done before anything else, to ensure there is enough time for comprehensive coverage of all subjects．With most exams starting at the end of June, the revision plan should be in place by the end of March at least.
2．Continual assessment
3. In order to chart (跟踪记录) your development effectively, we recommend that our students attempt practice papers in each subject, marked according to the relevant mark scheme and curriculum.
3．Order your subjects strategically
4. Ordering your subjects in an effective manner can help to do this．For example, scheduling English revision to appear early in your revision plan may provide useful when revising essay-based subjects such as History, Religious Studies and Politics later on.
4．Each subject is different
Depending on your learning style, you may find one easier than the other．More unusual exam types, such as performance exams, require their own unique attention． 5.
A．Besides, your time allocation (分配) may be dependent on your own aptitude in that subject．
B．Make a detailed timetable
C．Pressure and nerves can undoubtedly make it an uncomfortable experience.
D．Revision is a process of improvement.
E．Plan early
F．Starting with a subject that appears early on in the exam schedule is a wise decision.
G．The best revision plans have an element of strategy to their creation.
More than half of rich Americans have not shown their full wealth to their children, a new survey showed last Tuesday.
The survey, published by the Bank of America, studied the rich with $ 3 million or more in assets．It found that “surprisingly few of those surveyed have well-developed plans to preserve and pass on their assets to their children”.
The majority of the 457 people surveyed are self-made, first-generation rich．Fifty-two percent of parents have chosen not to tell their children just how wealthy they are, and 15 percent have given away nothing about the family wealth．One in their parents said they had never thought to do it.
They are worried that their children would become lazy, spend money freely, make bad decisions and even become a target for gold diggers.
Only 34 percent strongly agreed that t heir children would be able to handle any inheritance(遗产) they plan to leave them.
“There is an expectation about the wealthy parents that they have a responsibility to pass down their fortune to the next generation,” said Sallie Krawcheck, president of the Bank of America Globai Wealth and Investment Management．“Our research, however, uncovered changing views of what one generation owes the next.”
The trend is led by the world’s richest man Bill Gates, who promised in 2008 that he would leave his $58 billion fortune to the charity started by him and his wife, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation(基金会), and not to his children.
“We want to give it back to society in the way that it will have the most positive impact,” he said.
Of his plans for his children, Gates said: “I will give the kids some money but not a meaningful percentage… they will need to work but they will feel reasonably taken care of.”
1.We can learn from the passage that .
A．rich parents may not know how to manage their inheritance
B．rich parents don’t equal rich kids, at least in the US
C．American children don’t get to inherit their parents’ wealth
D．poor children don’t expect themselves to be as rich as their parents
2.According to the survey, most rich Americans .
A．think they owe their children nothing
B．think it best to give their money back to society
C．doubt their children’s ability to handle wealth
D．are confident of their children’s ability to handle wealth
3.From the last paragraph, we can see that Bill Gates wants to show .
A．the trend of leaving no inheritance to children
B．the positive impact of charity on society
C．the way of giving back to society
D．the importance of independence for children
I am sure we’ve all come across inspiring quotes that made us nod in agreement or made us think, “Wow, that’s good quote”．But we end up going back to procrastinating (拖延) on whatever it was we were procrastinating on．So are these inspirational quotes even worth reading? Well, that depends.
Quotes, books, articles, audio programs… all of these things are just tools and they’re only effective when you use them．I don’t know about you but most quotes I read don’t do anything for me．However, every now and then, I will come across one that will positively affect me in some way such as reminding me to be grateful, getting me to work out extra hard at the gym without being pressed by my wife, or never give up when things get tough.
From my experience, reading quotes is more effective when you’re actually trying to motivate yourself rather than just reading them for the sake of reading them．The second you feel the urge to take action, you’d better immediately get up off your chair and take action.
These quotes aren’t for everyone．If you have read tons of them and have never been motivated or had a positive change in the way you look at life or how you treat others, or these quotes don’t help you to insist on doing something when you feel like giving up on it, then it’s probably not worth your time reading more of them．If you have done something a bunch of times and it’s not giving you the results you want, don’t keep doing it．Try something else.
Now if you’ve found some value in reading these quotes in the past, continue to make them more effective by letting them guide your life.
I’ll end this text with one of my favorite quotes, which reminds me to constantly examine my habits．“We are what we repeatedly do．Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.”---- Aristotle

The new high-speed railway line between Urumqi, capital of the Xinjiang Uygur self-governing region, and Lanzhou, capital of Gansu province, has cut train travel time by half to less than 12 hours.
The dramatic improvement will benefit many families planning reunions for Spring Festival.
"For the first time, I feel home is not that far away after all," said Liang Shaofu as he boarded a high-speed train in Urumqi with six members of his family.
The 35-year-old left Lanzhou to set up a dry fruit business in Xinjiang eight years ago, and he has now settled in Urumqi.
The 1,776-km line, which passes through Qinghai province and is the country's first high-speed railway to be built in a high-altitude region, came into service on Dec 26.
"We normally drive home for Spring Festival to avoid the difficulties of buying seven train tickets for the whole family during the peak season," Liang said．"Driving can be very tiring and dangerous sometimes, so one year we even decided not to go back to Lanzhou simply to avoid the trip.
More than 600,000 passengers traveled on the line during its first month, and the Urumqi Railway Bureau said the introduction of high-speed services will ease transport pressure during the Spring Festival peak season.
The existing usual railway line could no longer support Xinjiang's development．All passenger trains will gradually shift to the new link, leaving the old one to be used for goods．As a result, Xinjiang's annual goods ability could reach 200 million metric tons from the current 70 million.
The line passes through areas that experience high winds, and it also crosses parts of the deserted Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the bone-dry sands of the Gobi Desert.
The project could help China to promote its high-speed railway technology abroad, said Ma Xizhang, director of the Lanzhou-Xinjiang railway project's management department in Xinjiang.
1.How long did it take to go from Urumqi to Lanzhou by the usual train before?
A．about 12 hours.
B．About 6 hours．
C．About 18 hours．
D．About 24 hours.
2.What’s the main advantage of the new high-speed railway?
A．It takes more time to go to Urumqi to Lanzhou.
B．It will be more convenient for people all over the country to Xinjiang.
C．All the people in Lanzhou can return home on festivals.
D．It helps to improve Xinjiang’s development.
3.From the passage we can learn _______.
A．Xinjiang’s annual goods ability can increase nearly four times
B．the new railway technology may help more railway lines to be built abroad
C．the high-speed railway lines can’t be built across the bone-dry sands
D．the old railway lines can only carry goods now
4.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A．The new high-speed railway line is good for all people to go home．
B．The new high-speed railway line benefits businessmen to carry goods.
C．Taking the new train is safer than driving home from Urumqi to Lanzhou.
D．Businessmen seldom went home for Spring Festival before.
