    Not too long ago, a young man asked me a question: how do you make study more fun? You can improve your study habits and make your process more enjoyable. It’s a matter of many things.

Manage your time

1. All it takes is sitting down with a calendar, and just mapping out everything you need to do and the time you need to do it: projects, tests, part-time work, homework, parties, doctor appointments.

Set the mood

First, choose a good study area. 2. Your spot may be in your dorm/bedroom or the library. If you prefer to lie on your bed or sit in a corner of the library, develop a study routine that will allow you to focus. Clean spaces are said to improve productivity. To help you focus, turn off your phone! And while you're at it, limit your access to the Internet.

Make it a game

Are you the competitive type? Try competing against yourself. 3. Or try joining or starting a study group with fiends and take bets on who can get the most right answers when doing homework.

Take breaks

In that hour or two you’ve scheduled for studying, make sure you also give yourself enough breaks. Set a timer-even a short one, like 25 minutes-and work during that time. When the timer goes off, give yourself a few minutes to relax, drink some water, etc. 4.

Reward yourself Sweet treats and other snacks often come to mind as a “reward”, and that might work for you, but it’s also probably not a great idea to eat a bag of potato chips after every 25-minute study session. Rewards can be as simple as allowing yourself to watch some interesting videos. 5.

A. And we mean a specific, unique spot.

B. it’s important to realize and make peace with the fact that studying isn’t always going to be “fun”.

C. You can learn how to learn more effectively.

D. Then set another timer and dive back into your studying.

E. Or you can set goals, and then buy yourself something fun when you meet them.

F. Time management may be the secret weapon to succeeding at everything!

G. See if you can improve your reading speed to get yourself under a certain number of pages in five minutes.

 

1.F 2.A 3.G 4.D 5.E 【解析】 本文是一篇说明文。你如何让学习变得更有趣?你可以改善你的学习习惯,让你的过程更愉快。这是很多事情的问题,文章对此列举说明。 1.根据小标题Manage your time(管理好你的时间),由此可知,F项 Time management may be the secret weapon to succeeding at everything!(时间管理可能是在任何事情上成功的秘密武器!)切题。该项中的management与小标题中Manage对应。故选F项。 2.上文提到“首先,选择一个好的学习区域。”再根据下文“你的地点可能在你的房间/卧室或图书馆里。”承接上下文,A项And we mean a specific, unique spot.“我们指的是一个特定的、独特的地点。”切题。该项中的spot与上下文中的area/spot对应。故选A项。 3.上文提到“试着与自己竞争。”下文提到“或者试着加入或开始一个有朋友的学习小组,并在做家庭作业时,打赌谁能得到最正确的答案。”承接上下文,G项See if you can improve your reading speed to get yourself under a certain number of pages in five minutes.“看看你是否能提高你的阅读速度,让你在五分钟内把自己的阅读速度提高到一定的页数。”切题。该项中的see if与上下文中的try保持一致。故选G项。 4.上文提到“当计时器停止时,给自己几分钟放松,喝点水,等等。”承接上文,D项Then set another timer and dive back into your studying.“然后再设定一个计时器,然后再投入到学习中去。”该项中的then起到上下文的衔接作用。故选D项。 5.上文提到“奖励可以简单到让你自己看一些有趣的视频。”承接上文,E项Or you can set goals, and then buy yourself something fun when you meet them.“或者你可以设定目标,然后在你遇到他们的时候给自己买一些有趣的东西。”切题。该项中的something fun与上文的interesting videos对应。故选E项。

    While the start of a new school year is always exciting, this year was even more so for some elementary school students in Auckland, New Zealand. They became the world’s first kids to be “taught” by a digital teacher. Before you start imagining a human-like robot walking around the classroom, Will is just an avatar that appears on the student’s desktop, or smartphone screen, when ordered to come.

The autonomous animation platform has been modeled after the human brain and nervous system, allowing it to show human-like behavior. The digital teacher is assigned to teach Vector’s “Be sustainable with energy”— a free program for Auckland elementary schools.

Just like the humans it replaced, Will is able to instantly react to the students’ responses to the topic. Thanks to a webcam and microphone, the avatar not only responds to questions the kids may have, but also picks up non-verbal cues. For instance, if a student smiles at Will, he responds by smiling back. This two-way interaction not only helps attract the students’ attention, but also allows the program’s developers to monitor their engagement, and make changes if needed.

Nikhil Ravishankar believes that Will-like avatars could be a novel way to catch the attention of the next generation. He says, “I have a lot of hope in this technology as a means to deliver cost-effective, rich, educational experience in the future.”

The program, in place since August 2018, has been a great success thus far. Ravishankar says, “ What was fascinating to me was the reaction of the children to Will. The way they look at the world is so creative and different, and Will really captured their attention.” However, regardless of how popular it becomes, Will is unlikely to replace human educators any time soon.

1.What was special for some elementary school students in Auckland?

A. A digital teacher taught them.

B. They first saw something digital.

C. This was the start of a new school year.

D. They could get close to smartphone screen.

2.What is the benefit of this two-way interaction?

A. It can smile back. B. It can use microphone.

C. It can talk any topic for free. D. It can change if necessary.

3.What’s Ravishankar’s attitude to Will’s replacing Human educators soon?

A. Optimistic. B. Doubtful.

C. Unclear. D. Disapproving.

4.What might be the best title for the passage?

A. New High-tech Contributes to Education

B. The World’s First Digital Teacher Appears in Classroom.

C. The World’s First Digital Teacher, a Help to Students

D. New Zealand Will Replace Teachers in Classrooms

    As the Camp Fire continued, killing at least 85 people and displacing thousands more in Northern California, Madison waited there.

Gaylord, the Anatolian shepherd mix’s owner, was not able to get to her home in Paradise, when the fire began to spread, meaning Madison was left behind. For weeks, all Gaylord could do was pray for Madison’s safety, according to California-based animal rescue organization Paw Print Rescue.

Sullivan, a volunteer with the organization, had already helped locate Madison’s brother Miguel in a different city. But Madison was even more difficult to find. Sullivan spotted Madison a few times in a canyon (峡谷), apparently guarding his land, and put out fresh food and water regularly in hopes that the dog would turn up, according to a Facebook post by Sullivan. She even placed an article of clothing that smelled like Gaylord near the home “to keep Madison’s hope alive until his people could return,” Sullivan wrote.

When the evacuation (疏散) order was lifted last week and Gaylord went back to her home—which had been ruined by the fire—her prayers were answered: Madison was there, seemingly protecting what little remained of his family’s home. “Well, I’m so happy to report that Gaylord was allowed to return to her home today and THERE MADISON WAS!!!! He had stayed to protect what was left of his home, and never gave up on his people!” Sullivan wrote in the comment on her Facebook post. “I’m so happy I’m crying as I write this! He didn’t give up through the storms or the fire!” she added.

Soon afterward, Madison was reunited with Miguel for the first time since the fire broke out. An emotional Gaylord said in an interview with the network that she was overcome with joy to see Madison waiting for her. She also expressed how grateful she was to Sullivan. Gaylord said fighting through tears, “You could never ask for better animals. He is the best dog.”

2.Why did Sullivan place an article of clothing smelling like Gaylord near the home?

    More primary care doctors in a community (社区) appear to lead to improved life expectancy for people living therethough a lack of such physicians across U.S. could be a cause of concern for overall population health in years to come.

For the study, researchers looked at physician counts per 100,000 people in a range covering 2005 to 2015 in the U. S.along with life expectancy and specific causes of death. They found that an increase of 10 primary care physicians per 100,000 population was associated with a 51. 5-day increase in life expectancy, while an increase of 10 specialty physicians per 100, 000 population increased life expectancy by 19. 2 days. An increase in primary care physicians also was associated with reductions of many deaths including heart diseases and cancers.

Along with those findings, though, the study said many communities did not have primary care physicians in 2015with the decline in supply more prominent in rural areas than their urban areas. Many believe that a well-functioning health care system requires a solid foundation of primary care, however, payment difference between primary care and technical specialties continue to dispirit the U. S. primary care physician workforce.

“Higher pay and lifestyle preferences lead most students to choose non-primary care fields, even when their hearts say primary care,” the study said. “We must turn this trend around with practical changes in physician payment policy; no amount of superb primary care training or creative practice reform will prevent further declines in primary care physician, which will lead to worsening health for the United States. ”

The study’s researchers conclude that future research should focus on the “quality and cover of primary caretypes of primary care physician training and service offerings, and effective access rather than just supply”.

1.What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 2?

    In recent years, increasing numbers of extra-wide parking spaces have been specially designed for female drivers in some cities. Some like the idea, but others call it discriminatory, saying it implies women are worse drivers than men. So are parking spaces for women considerate or discriminatory? Forum readers share their opinions.

Leonard Wong (Singapore)

I think there is no necessity for such a special treatment. If they are truly poorer drivers, they have to brush up on their driving skills instead. When obtaining a license, they should have stricter tests or more practice sessions. If you do this, when some of them go overseas, they might get into trouble due to the smaller lots there.

Robert (US)

In the US some stores have special parking spaces, larger than normal and close to the storefor pregnant women. Maybe this is the intention. Besides, how many men go to shopping malls on their own regularly? There are always much larger than normal parking spaces in the US for the handicapped. Most are usually empty. Does this mean the handicapped are being labeled as “less than”

Ivanapge (Singapore)

It is not practicable. There are places where parking lot space is limited and if you reserve some lots for just lady drivers, the lot would go to waste if there are no lady drivers going to park. If she is considered a capable driver who can manage on her own, why need special treatment? There are also man drivers who are as bad when it comes to driving or parking skills. Should they be given special treatment as well? Just improve your skills.

Cdogg (Canada)

It’s a good idea if it keeps the parking lot flowing and free of minor accidents, where no one moves out of the way for other drivers to pass. It is a bad idea if these spots are not used and creates overcrowding where people just sit, waiting for space around the lot. Time will tell.

1.Who share the similar idea in the passage?

A.Leonard Wong and Robert B.Leonard Wong and Ivanapge

C.Leonard Wong and Cdogg D.Robert and Ivanapge

2.According to Robert, which of the following can be inferred?

A.All the stores have special parking spaces.

B.The parking spaces are much smaller there.

C.Few men go to shopping malls alone regularly.

D.The disabled are treated as “less than”.

3.What is the main focus of the passage?

A.Are female drivers good at parking?

B.Are women good at driving cars?

C.Are parking spaces for women discriminatory?

D.Do female drivers deserve more parking spaces?
