阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
Peter woke up early in the morning. He went downstairs in a hurry and started to have his breakfast as quickly as possible.
“Why are you in such a hurry, early bird?” Mum asked him. “We will have an English spelling test today, Mum,” Peter said. “Mr. White promised to offer prizes to those who get 100 scores. I' ve been studying the word list since last week. Although the words are difficult, I am well prepared for them.”
Peter reviewed the spelling of each word once more carefully when Dad drove him to school. At last, it was time for the students to have a test. “Responsibility,” Mr. White started. Peter wrote it on his test paper quickly and confidently.
“The second word: contribution,” Mr. White said .
“So easy, ” Peter thought . He quickly wrote the word down .
Thirty words later, the test papers were collected by Mr. White. “I am to mark your papers now,” he told the class. After marking the test papers, Mr. White said, “three of you won a prize today for excellent test scores. Peter, David and Mary got 100 percent on the spelling test!”
Mr. White praised them. Meanwhile, he gave the three students each a dictionary. Peter’s was an English-Chinese dictionary—the one he liked best. Peter was so excited that he held it high when his classmates cheered. “This is my happiest moment ,” Peter thought .
After Mr.White gave the test paper back, Peter had a look at the words, feeling proud of his spelling. All of a sudden, the word “contribution” confused him. It didn’t seem right. Peter began to compare them after taking out the word list. “C-o-n-t-r-i-b-u-s-i-o-n, ” he whispered. He had spelled it wrong.
“ What am I to do?” Peter said to himself. “I expect my classmates to think I'm a master in spelling. If I tell Mr. White one of my spelling words is wrong I'll have to give my prize back , or I will become an example for telling a lie”.
Staring at the red sign“100%” which was written at his test paper, Peter was lost in thought. After a while, he remembered a lesson Mum used to teach him, “We ought to be an honest person.”

You know this: continuous learning and improvement are essential to our work and life. But your time is limited and there is only so much you can absorb at a given period. How does one learn faster and more effectively?
If knowledge is power, knowing how to learn effectively is the superpower.1.Use them to absorb more information in a short time, understand content at a deeper level and carry out what you’ve learned effectively.
Increase desirable difficulty
Like building muscles, the harder you train, the stronger you get. So does learning. The harder your brain has to work to recall a memory, the greater you increase in learning.
This is what separates studying with practicing and testing.Practicing and testing are not equal to studying. They are greater than studying because it requires work to dig out the me memory of what you’ve studied and learned.
2.Instead, increase the desirable difficulties so that you learn and remember the knowledge better over the long run.
3.
Sleep plays an extremely important role in our cognitive (认知的）development, which includes learning. While your brain sleeps, the flow of cerebrospinal fluid(脑脊液)in the brain increases and clears out harmful toxins built up during your waking hours.
To improve your learning ability, make sure you get enough high-quality sleep every day. If you have the time flexibility, try taking 30 to 60 minutes nap after lunch. Naps are sleeping too.
Make use of the environment
Our environment shapes our behavior more than we think or like to admit.4.The environment plays an important role, too. You can use this in two ways.
First, the environment we study and practice becomes the cause when we’re performing. If you’re practising for a performance, for example giving a speech, practice it in the same environment where you’re going to perform. Doing this makes practicing easier as it goes and it translates into the actual performance as well.
You can also use the environment to exposes yourself to many contexts when learning new content or practicing a new skill.5.
A. Improve your sleep and take naps.
B. Make self-learning effective for you.
C. The same goes for learning .
D. Here are some skills to help you get closer to the superpower you ever wanted.
E. This helps your brain to make more connections for that particular content or skill.
F. To learn more effectively, stop avoiding challenges and difficulties.
G. Luckily, you can improve efficient learning habits and learning styles help you learn faster.
The Liangzhu ruins in Hangzhou, pointing to an established Chinese civilisation 5,000 years ago, have been added to the UNESCO World Heritage List. Every Chinese child is taught at school that the country's civilisation is 5,000 years old, but proving this beyond doubt has been a problem.
Now, a jade artifact(玉器)named “King of Cong”, found in the Liangzhu city ruins near Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, has provided an answer. Accordingto radiocarbon dating(放射性碳定年法),the 6.5kg object is 5,300 years old. It is one ofthe largest objects among all Cong from Liangzhu. The piece has now won greater global recognition.
However, the site has far more than just things made of jade.The main area, spread over14.3 square kilometers in the Yuhang area of Hangzhou, includes not only a city’s ruins but 11 dams and several cemeteries(墓地), all about 5,000 years old. Archaeological facts show that people lived in Liangzhu for about a thousand years.
“The archaeological ruins of Liangzhu (3300-2300 BCE) show an early state with a unified belief system based on growing rice in Late Neolithic China(中国新石器时代晚期). ”the UNESCO World Heritage Committee said.“These ruins are an extremely good example of early city civilisation expressed in town planning, a water conservation system and a social order which can be seen in where and how people were buried in cemeteries within the ruins.”
According to studies led by Liu Bin, director of the Zhejiang Provincial Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology, the inner part of theancient city ruins covers 2.8 square kilometers, about five times the area of the Forbidden City in Beijing, and the outer city spreads across 6.3 square kilometers. Liu said it was the biggest city ruins site of its time to be found in China, and was also one of the largest cities of its day in the world.
1.________ can prove that China has a civilisation of 5,000 years old?
A.The king named Cong. B.The archaeological ruins of Liangzhu.
C.The UNESCO World Heritage Committee. D.The historical site at Hangzhou dam.
2.What do we know about the ancient Liangzhu city?
A.A different system of value in the region. B.The end of Chinese civilisation.
C.The biggest city ruins all over the world. D.The whole area—9.1 square kilometers.
3.Why is the Forbidden City mentioned in the last paragraph?
A.To focus on the great achievements.
B.To inform us of the importance about architecture.
C.To stress the large scale of ancient Liangzhu city.
D.To present advanced technology and outstanding civilisation.
