Here are some of them.Firstly, make a timetable and follow it. This will include how many hours and which part of the day you will spend studying. Try to make sure that your study time takes place after you have rested, so that you are fresh and can learn effectively. You will find that studying at the same time every day will help you concentrate(集中) better. Its also important to keep improving your timetable, to make it more effective over time.Secondly, pick a place that will help you concentrate on study. The place should be far away from loud sounds which make you uncomfortable and prevent you from concentrating on your study.High school study skills include a method called SQ3R. The first step is to survey（纵览） what needs to be covered in order to get a general understanding of the subject. Next, you can learn about the material by answering questions such as what, why, how, when, who and where. As you study, ask yourself questions and look for the answers in your material. The third step is to read and then recite（背诵） what you have read. The last step, reviewing, is often the most important one. People need to review any material about three times, before they keep it well in their minds.Besides these study tips, you can come up with several of your own study skills for school. However, remember that time is the most valuable thing you have. All the study skills for high school will be nothing, if you dont use your time wisely.（1）In order to study well, you should do all the following EXCEPT _.A . never change the timetable once you have made itB . choose a place that will make you feel comfortableC . answer some questions and ask yourself questionsD . create and follow your own study skills for school（2）The writer thinks the most important step in study is to _.A . readB . surveyC . reviewD . recite（3）The right steps to use the SQ3R method are _.A . question-survey-review-read & reciteB . survey-read & recite-question-reviewC . read & recite-review-survey-questionD . survey-question-read & recite-review（4）Which of the following might be the best title for this passage?A . School Life at High SchoolB . Study Skills for High SchoolC . The Importance of Making a TimetableD . Best ways to Improve Your Study18. （8分）阅读理解Some people in the world are still living with hunger. As many as 815 million people in the world didnt have enough food in 2016.Heifer international wants to end world hunger. It began in 1930 when an American farmer went to Spain to help people in need. These people often went hungry in the war. That framer, Dan West, tried to use milk to feed these hungry people. And there was a continuous(持续的)need to feed people. This got him to think that what they needed was not a cup, but a cow.In 1939, West went back to Indiana and decided to find ways to stop hunger. He thought about giving animals to the hungry people as a gift. Then they can feed and sell the animals for money. Only then could there be an end to hunger.On Heifer internationals website (/www.heifer.org), you will see a lot of animals you can buy to help those in need. But not just cows, goats, and pigs are for sale. You can also buy fish, or even honeybees! More importantly, you are not just buying an animal for one person. You are buying what can help at least 1000 families. Each gift could make a continuous change.But Heifer Internationals work doesnt end there. They will work with communities(社区) until they dont need outside help. If everyone works together(一起), maybe hunger really can end.（1）When did Heifer International begin its work to end world hunger? A . In 1930B . In 1939C . In 2006D . In 2015（2）The under lined word then in paragraph 3 refers to the time _. A . when West went back to IndianaB . when West used milk to feed the peopleC . when people live with animalsD . when people feed animals to make money（3）Which of the following statements is true? A . Dan West thought that there was no way to end hunger.B . People may bring an end to hunger by working together.C . People can buy any animal on Heifer Internationals website.D . Buying animals on the website cant help the hungry families.（4）The passage is mainly about _. A . what communities can do to end hungerB . where Dan West built Heifer InternationalC . why many people are still living with hungerD . how Heifer International works to end hunger19. （6分） Is learning a foreign language ever easy? Yes. If you are five and move to another country, you will quickly pick up the language. But what about for the rest of us who are no longer five, and need to be polite when traveling for business or for pleasure? I think that answer is also yes. Language learning can be easy if you dont want or need to learn too much.The key to successful language learning in my mind is not to set the goal too high. It is rather like running. Even if you run twice a week, you dont necessarily want to be able to run a marathon (马拉松). You might just want to keep a level of fitness. I think the same can be true for language learning.Lets get back to the goal. If you decide to learn ten words in a foreign language before visiting the country, you know that you will be sure to do this. However, if you decide to talk to people with great fluency (流利), unless you are quite a talented person, you will probably fail and give up in half-way.It is also far easier to start learning a foreign language than to finish. In other words, the better you are, the slower it can be to improve, because you will not be able to move further because of grammar, making sentences, learning less common words, etc. If you are only trying to learn a few foreign words and sentences, you will enjoy faster progress, have more fun, and wont have to spend too much time.The idea of learning only a few hundred words in a language, and then stopping, isnt the usual way to language learning, but it can be a very meaningful and enjoyable activity.（1）In the writers opinion, it is easy for adults to learn English if _.A . they are especially talented peopleB . they dont want or need to learn too muchC . they have to spend a lot of time on itD . they have a chance to go abroad（2）The writer believes that if you want to be good at a foreign language, you will probably _.A . forget your own goalsB . become a talented language learnerC . get tired of learning itD . reach your learning goal（3）The best title of this passage would be _.A . Easy Language LearningB . Hard Language LearningC . Fluency in a Foreign LanguageD . A way of Language Learning20. （16分）按要求完成下列各题。Can you create( 创造)your own T-shirt? Let me tell you its easy!
