There are many kinds of steel which are made by mixing iron with other metals.Iron is found in many different places on earth. When you see rocks with a red color, they probably have some iron.

Try to set aside some time every day for your studies when your brain is most receptive. Its better to study for 30 minutes every day than for 3 hours once a week. If you can spare two or three hours a day, break them up into some periods to avoid brain overload. Go over each lesson several times, perhaps once in the morning, once in the evening and once several days later. Give your brain time to digest the material, but make sure the gaps between periods of studies are not too long or you will forget most of what youre trying to learn. Make sure you have mastered the contents of one lesson before moving on to the next. Make sure youre fortable with the basics of the language before learning the more advanced knowledge. It will take you some time to get used to the pronunciation and spelling of a new language, but without a solid understanding of these, youll find it very difficult to learn more. Setting reasonable targets is a good way to motivate yourself. You could set yourself a time limit or aim for a certain level of proficiency (精通). Once you have mastered the basics of the language, learn to apply them about the things that interest you. In this way you are more likely to remember the words, phrases and grammatical constructions you meet. You will find that at times youre making fairly rapid progress, while at other times you seem to stand still or even go backwards. This is normal when learning a language, so dont be discouraged. Making mistakes in a foreign language is nothing to worry about. What matters is getting your message across, not whether you use all the right words, tenses, cases, etc. If you cannot think of the exact words, try using other ones. 64 How many tips does the writer give about learning languages in this passage?A. Four. B. Six.C. Seven.D. Nine.65. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the authors opinions?A. You should learn the language once as long as possible.B. Youd better set a reasonable aim before you start.C. You should often review what youve learnt.D. You should practise the language while learning it.66. The last two tips of learning a language are mainly about _.A. the mistakes when you learn a foreign language.B. the things you shouldnt do when you meet with difficulties.C. the reasons why we make mistakes while trying to apply it.D. the reasons why we make little or no progress while learning it.67. We can infer from this passage that the author of this passage is probably _.A. an outstanding artist.B. a brilliant politician. C. an extraordinary explorer.D. an experienced teacher.D Every person has a unique experience and a story to tell about his school life, so do I. We had great fun in growing and learning. Every year we were taken to different places for our school picnics. I was never able to go to these tours but I enjoyed every word of the stories told by my friends. When I was in Grade Eight, I won a couple of prizes in drawing and school petitions. We were also given many projects as class assignments that helped all of us to know more about the subject. I was very fond of cricket (now in football). My friends and I played cricket in the school campus after school, but at the same time, we all used to get lots of scolding from our headmaster. Every Saturday we used to have our P.T. exercise, and frankly speaking, nobody in my class, even me, had ever liked this. As I reached Grade Nine I realised that I should concentrate on my studies as the next year I was going to take my Board exams. The most memorable day in my life was the day when we held the farewell party for our seniors. Well, now I am in Grade Ten and all set to write my Boards in March. Whenever I recollect all these incidents of school life, I feel very happy and in everybodys school life, I think there are many ups and downs that mould(浇注) ones life. School is a place where all of us learn to care and share. “School” is not just a place, but also it is a large dome made up of knowledge, love and affection. I think in everybodys success, school plays a key role. I can describe my school in “Three Ss”, they are: Small, Sweet and Simple. 68. From the second paragraph we can infer that _. A. all the students could take part in schools picnics.B. the author didnt behave well before.C. the author was very bad at his studies .D. the school didnt approve of students playing on the campus69. At school, the author is good at _.A. drawingB. cricketC. footballD. position70. The underlined phrase “ups and downs” probably means “_”.A. favorite and boring subjectsB. lucky and unlucky personsC. good and bad experiencesD. high and low spirits71.What would be the best title for the passage? A. I am good at playing football.B. We should study hard. C. My life at school.D. What a school means.EWomen dont talk more than men. Really, they dont. Women speak 20,000 words a day, pared to the average mans 7,000. But a study published recently denies this old rule. Both men and women use about 16,000 words a day, says the new research in Science magazine. “Its been a mon belief, but it just didnt fit,” says James Pennebaker, the researcher of the seven-year study. Pennebaker and his colleagues analyzed (分析) recorded conversations of 396 university students age 18 to 29 in the USA and Mexico, including 210 women and 186 men. The study didnt look at vocabulary or word use, but rather word count. Pennebaker says two-thirds of participants spoke 11,000 to 25,000 words a day, with the average for both sexes about 16,000 words. The finding may seem surprising in a popular culture where women are often thought of as talkative and men as silent. Most recently, psychiatrist (精神病学家) Louann Brizendine used the 20,000 and 7,000 parison in her 2006 book The Female Brain, as evidence for brain differences. After the book came out in August, the data was widely reused. “That hits a nerve (神经). Its been surprising to me that this little point is the point people pick out,” says Brizendine. But experts in neurolinguistics(神经语言学) thought that the data was uncertain. Mark Liberman, a linguistics professor at the University of Pennsylvania, says that after Brizendines book came out, he tried to find evidence to support her claim, but failed.72. According to the new research in Science magazine, how many words do women use a week?A. 140,000.B. 47,000.C. 112,000.D. 28, 000. 73. What did Pennebaker and his colleagues focus on in their study? A. The number of words people used.B. The structures people used.C. The speed of speaking words.D. The use of words. 74. We can know the parison used in The Female Brain was _. A. considered untrue by most scientistsB. accepted as a truth by most scientists C. seldom reused by others D. considered as evidence for sex brain similarities75. It can be inferred from the passage that at the beginning, Mark Liberman _. A. didnt believe Brizendines data in her 2006 book The Female BrainB. thought Brizendines data in her 2006 book The Female Brain was true C. succeeded in finding the evidence to support Brizendines claim D.cared little about Brizendines claim in her 2006 book The Female Brain第一节：任务型读写（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）阅读下面短文上，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填一个单词。Some people are pessimistic when they think about the future. They say that, a hundred years from now, we will have used up most of the earths resources. We will have polluted our seas badly, and be unable to eat fish from them. We will have made the air so dirty that we will need to wear masks. The worlds population will have doubled, and we will have used all the countryside for housing; there will be no farmland left.Other people believe that Man adapts very easily. They have a different idea of the future. How, in their views, will people be living in a hundred years time?One architect believes that Man will move off the land. He suggests that the city of the future will be a huge, pyramid-shaped building, which will be floating on the surface of the sea.As for oil, people will no longer need it: we will be heating our homes with power from the sun. And we will not be short of minerals, because there are plenty under our oceans. What will be in the shops in the year 3000? What will people be wearing? How will people be traveling? Scientists who make predictions about teh future suggest that, by teh year 3000, shops will no longer exist. puters will have replaced them; and people will order goods from home.People will be wearing very light, thin clothes. By that time, scientists will have invented a fabric that keeps us cool in hot weather and warm in cold weather.As for travel, the experts say that most people will be using public transport. Electric cars will be traveling through the streets day and night. Anybody will be able to stop one and use it.Title What Will Life Be (76)_ in the Future?IntroductionThere are two opinions about the life in the future.The pessimisticopinions*The earths resources will be (77)_ out of.*Seas will be polluted badly and no fish to eat.*People will have to wear masks because of bad air (78)_.*As a result of increasing population,
