Many parents often ask me, “How can you teach your child good study skills? How can he or she get the homework done as quickly as possible?” Here are some tips: 1. If the child is as young as nine or ten, ask him or her to prepare a small notebook to write down the homework given by his or her teachers. By developing this habit, he or she will learn to be much more responsible (负责的).2. Find a good place to study. This should be a quiet place that is free from everything but study things. No games, radios, or televisions. Once you have decided on a place to study, this should be the only place where your child does his or her homework and studies. There should also be a very specific time for homework to be done. Usually, homework should be done as soon as the child gets home from school. This also goes for the kids who take part in after-school activities. Of course, it is a good idea to allow the child to have a healthy snack before the work begins.3. Also remember that it is the childs duty to do his or her homework. Some children give up easily and go to Mom and Dad for help when they have a problem. Try to let them solve it first. By doing this, they will get a sense of success from overcoming problems. In this way we help them to help themselves.（1）Asking the kids to keep a notebook to remember their homework will make them _.A . remember moreB . learn moreC . more responsibleD . more interested in studying（2）The place where the children study must _.A . be free for everythingB . have a TV set and a computerC . be quiet, bright and free from things for entertainmentD . be big, clean and tidy（3）What does the underlined word “overcoming” mean in the passage?A . Forgetting.B . Leaving.C . Realizing.D . Beating.（4）According to the passage, the children should _ when they have trouble with their homework.A . ask their parents for helpB . try to solve the problems by themselvesC . wait for their teachers helpD . put it away and have a snack（5）This passage is written _.A . for parents to help their children study wellB . for the children who want to improve their workC . for teachers to teach their studentsD . for housewives to make their kids happy3. （8分）根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。While we are still children, most of us live at home with our parents, more or less peacefully. But as we become teenagers, things change, and we begin to grow apart from our parents. This means we are almost ready to leave the house where we grew up and make a new home of our own.All humans must do this, but they dont all do it in the same way. If, for instance, you belong to a primitive tribe (原始部落) ，then as you grew up, youd learn the skills you needed as an adult-how to catch fish, how to keep the house and look after children. You would be ready to marry in your early teens and you would build a house and live near your family in the village.This seems a very old way of life, but it is what humans have been used to through hundreds of years. And it is what we are still used to in the 21st century, for man hasnt changed in the short time since he became civilized(文明的). But could you leave home and look after yourself during the teen years? Most people would not do very well. Why? Because although man hasnt changed very much, the society he lives in has changed greatly, which means that we have to learn more and more before we are ready to leave our parents shelter( 居所 ) and live alone.However, sometimes it is very frustrating to live at parents home. Parents can be very upset about late nights, criticizing friends and always saying that we are noisy and dirty. But we still need our emotional (情感的) shelter till we finish our studies, and that is why we usually stay in our parents home until we feel grown up enough to deal with living alone.（1）When does the relationship with parents start changing? A . When we are children.B . When we become teenagers.C . When we are alone.D . When we get married.（2）For most teenagers of the 21st century, making a new home of their own may be _. A . difficultB . unimportantC . impossibleD . quite easy（3）Why must we know more to be able to live alone? A . Because we are becoming less talented.B . Because our society has changed a lot.C . Because not enough is taught in our schools.D . Because man has never really been civilized.（4）From the passage, we know living at parents home when we become teenagers _. A . is always pleasantB . must be very excitingC . makes us feel lonelyD . may be annoying4. （8分）选出能完成句子的最佳答案。(B)Everyone knows that exercise is importantWe all need to exerciseDoctors say it is good for usIt makes your heart and body strongChildren who often exercise are more alert(灵活的).That means they do better in tests and schoolwork than those who dont exerciseThere are many ways to exerciseYou can walk，run，swim，skate or play ball gamesMake sure you exercise in the following ways：You have to like what you are doingExercise enough-but not too muchIts best to exercise twice a weekThirty minutes each time is enoughTry all kinds of sports until you find one，two or three sports that feel right for youYou can exercise at fitness centersThey have a lot of equipment(设备)thereThe equipment will help exercise your arm，legs and other parts of your body to make you healthySome people buy equipment for their homesBut its very expensiveExercising can be funFriends can exercise together at fitness center，or they can play sports togetherHow do you exercise?（1）In the text，the writer tells us that we all need to A . drinkB . sleepC . workD . exercise（2）Which of the following sports is NOT mentioned in the text?
