Many students say that a lack of concentration is their biggest problem. It seriously affects their ability to study, so do their test results. If so, use these tips to help you.Study TechniquesYou should always study in the same place. You shouldnt sit in a position that you use for another purpose. For example, when you sit on a sofa to study, your brain will think it is time to relax. Dont watch TV while you are studying. Experts warn that your concentration may be reduced by 50 percent if you attempt to study in this way. Always try to have a white wall in front of you, so there is nothing to distract (make less concentrated) you.Your eyes will bee tired if you try to read a text which is on a flat surface. Position your book at an angle of 30 degrees.Dont try to plete too much in one study period. Finish one thing before beginning another. If you need a break, get up and walk around for a few minutes.Test-taking SkillsAll your hard work will be for nothing if you are too nervous to take your test. Getting plenty of rest is very important. This means do not study all night before your test! It is a better idea to have a long-term study plan. Try to make a timetable for your study which lasts for a few months.Exercise is a great way to reduce pressure. Doing some form of exercise every day will also improve your concentration. Eat healthy food too.When you arrive in the examination room, find your seat and sit down. Breathe slowly and deeply. Check the time on the clock during the test, but not too often. Above all, take no notice of everyone else and give the test paper your undivided attention.36Which of the following statements is TRUE according to he passage?A. Check the time during the exam at a certain time.B. Staying up all night and studying is a tiring but effective wayC. You should study in a different place every day, so you dont get bored.D.

You can break down the learning tasks and finish one at a time.39. Which of the following is not included in the tips?A. Reference books. B. Healthy food.C. Proper timetable. D. Enough restBCould an eagle carry off a human baby? Ever since the story of Sinbad the Sailor, weve heard tales of human infants （幼儿）carried off by big birds. Sinbad, so the story goes, was carried off by a Roc. The Roc - a huge bird - took Sinbad in his beak（喙） and flew him off to his nest in the mountains.Sinbad and the Roc were only imaginary. But what about eagles? Can an eagle lift a baby?Two scientists wanted to find out. They climbed up into the high mountains and caught a golden eagle. They tied an eight- pound weight to its neck. Eight pounds, they felt, was about the right weight for a very young baby. Then they let the eagle loose. The eagle couldnt get off the ground!40. The story of Sinbad the Sailor told us that_.A. Sinbad was a very young babyB. the big bird enjoyed living in the mountainsC. Sinbad was once lifted by a very big birdD. big birds did harm to human beings41. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Stories have been told of human beings carried off by birds, but we dont know if these stories are true.B. The Roc was a real bird that lived long ago.C. Scientists are searching for the Roc in the mountains.D. The Roc was much bigger than the golden eagle.42. This passage is mainly about_A. eagle B. the lifting power of eagle C. two scientists D. Sinbad the Sailor CSome English words are made up of the same part and have different beginnings and different endings, such as import, export, report and transport. All these words, you can see, have the same root “port”, which es from the Latin word, meaning “ to carry” or “ to move” from one place to another. And according to the bit at the beginning- Which we call the prefix （前缀）, the meaning changes: “import” means “to carry in ” or “to bring into a country”, “export”, “ex” means “out of”, so this word means “to carry out of a country”, “re” means “back”, so the word “report” means “to tell somebody, to bring back information to somebody”, “transport”, “trans” means “across” and it means “to carry across one place to another.”Lets look at the following words: supporter, reporter, importer and exporter. You can see that in this case these words are nouns which are made up of the verbs. Adding a suffix （后缀）“er” to a verb means a person who does this thing. So supporter means somebody who supports. A reporter is somebody who reports. Importer is somebody who imports and exporter is somebody who exports, and so on.43. “Some English words are made up of the same part”, in the sentence “part” means_.A. different beginnings and different endingsB. the same part which has several meaningsC. the root of a wordD. the same root which has different meanings44. Which of the following is not true?A. besides “port”, most English words have the same root which es from the Latin word. B. “Port” is the root forming some English wordsC. The root “Port” means “to carry”.D. “Port” is the root meaning “to move” from one place to another.45. By adding a prefix or a suffix to a root, we can get a word which has _.A. the meaning of a Latin wordB. a different meaningC. the meanings of “in” or “out of”D. a lot of meanings46. We can get a noun_.A. just by adding “er” to “out of”B. by changing a prefixC. only by adding “er” to a rootD. by adding a suffix to a verb47. According to the passage, if we talk about a repairman, you may guess that he must be_.A. somebody who has regained healthB. a person who can repair somethingC. somebody who has good healthD. a person who can do only simple things D You may think that sailing is a difficult sport, but it is really not hard to learn it. You do not need to be strong. But you need to be quick. And you need to understand a few basic rules about the wind. First, you must ask yourself, “Where is the wind ing from? Is it ing from ahead or behind or from the side?” You must think about this all the time on the boat. The wind direction tells you what to do with the sail. Lets start with the wind blowing from the behind. This means the wind and the boat are going in the same direction. Then you must always keep the sail outside the boat. It should be at a 90 angle (角度) to the boat. Then it will catch the wind best. If the wind is blowing from the side, it is blowing across the boat. In this case, you must keep the sail half way outside the boat. It should be at a 45 angle to the boat. It needs to be out far enough to catch the wind, but it shouldnt flap (摆动). It shouldnt look like on a flagpole. If it is flapping, it is probably out too far, and the boat will slow down.Sailing into the wind is not possible. If you try, the sail will flap and the boat will stop. You may want to go in that direction. It is possible, but you cant go in a straight line. You must go first in one direction and then in another. This is called tacking. When you are tacking, you must always keep the sail inside the boat. 48. What should you consider first while sailing? A. Sailors strength. B. Wave levels. C. Wind directions. D. Size of sails. 49. What does the word “It” underlined in Paragraph 4 refer to? A. The boat. B. The wind. C. The sail. D. The angle.50. What do you have to do when sailing against the wind? A. Move in a straight line. B. Allow the sail to flap. C. Lower the sail. D. Tack the boat.V. 根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Daughter：Dad.
