For many high school students, it seems that there is never enough time. There are several steps you can take to organize your time better.
1. Make a to-do list every day. It makes it easy to plan any activities or meetings you may have in addition to homework. Be sure to set priorities (优先的事物). 1.
2. Use spare time wisely. Do you have a study hall? Instead of wasting that time, read a book or do homework. 2. If a friend asks you to do something and you have homework to do, realize which is more important and see your friend later.
3. Decide on the time that is good for you to do certain things. If you are more of a morning person, try getting up an hour earlier and do schoolwork before school. Review your notes every day. 3. If you spend a few minutes at the end of every day going over what you learned, it will mean less time studying when it is time for the exam.
4. 4. Studies have shown that getting enough rest helps your memory. When you are tired, everything seems more difficult. It is best to stay on a regular sleeping cycle as much as possible.
5. Tell your friends and family about your work timetable. Explain that you will be working at certain times and ask them not to disturb you. 5. you can call your friends later.
A. Set goals for yourself.
B. Get a good night’s sleep.
C. Do the most important tasks first.
D. And also, do not be afraid to say “no”.
E. You should finish your homework on time.
F. Don’t wait until just before a test to remember everything.
G. Don’t take phone calls during the time you set aside or work.

Nothing succeeds like success, as every parent of a straight-A student knows, but trying to highlight academic excellence by telling your child, "You're so smart," may be counterproductive(负效的). Telling kids they're smart strengthens the idea that intelligence is a genetic gift rather than a skill that can be developed.
In a recent study, researchers at Michigan State University looked at 123 children who were about 7. The team assessed the children to determine whether they had a "growth mindset(思维模式)" (believing that you can work harder to get smarter), or a "fixed mindset"(believing that your intelligence is unable to change). They then asked the children to complete a fast-paced computer accuracy task while their brain activity was recorded. In the task, children played a game, helping a zookeeper capture escaped animals by pressing the space bar when an animal showed up in their screen—unless it was a group of three chimps. During the recording, researchers noted that brain activity spiked within a half-second after making a mistake, as children became aware of their error and paid closer attention to what went wrong. The larger the brain response, the more the children focused on the error.
Based on the data they collected, the researchers concluded that children with a "growth mindset" were much more likely to have a larger brain response after making a mistake, and in turn were more likely to improve their performance by paying closer attention to the task after making an error.
For parents, the lessons are clear: don't pay compliments(赞扬) that suggest that intelligence is fixed. If a child hands you an A+ test, don't say, "You're so smart!" Instead say, "Wow, that studying really paid off!" Note the effort, not the intelligence. Second, focus on using errors to work together and learn. "Many parents and teachers shy away from addressing a child's mistakes, telling them "It's OK. You'll get it next time." without giving them the opportunity to figure out what went wrong." Dr. Schroder says. Here are additional ways you can help enhance your child's education.
1.What can learn about children's mindset from the study?
A. Children are born with a fixed or growth mindset.
B. Children with a fixed mindset pay no attention to mistakes.
C. Children with a growth mindset are more likely to make progress.
D. Children with a growth mindset can catch more animals in the game.
2.Which of the following has the closest meaning with the underlined word in Paragraph 2?
A. started B. stopped
C. paused D. rose
3.What should parents say to children's performance according to the passage?
A. "You are so clever!" for excellence.
B. "It's not good enough." for excellence.
C. "You can benefit from it." for a mistake.
D. "It's OK. Forget about it." for a mistake.
4.What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Never Call Your Kid Smart
B. Always Be Strict with Your Kid
C. How to Communicate with Your Kid
D. How to Comment on Your Kid's Performance

The first monthly exam which I took as a high school student held at the end of September. Unluckily, I performed poorly in mathematics and chemistry, all of which used to be my strong subject. As a result of, my total test score fell greatly and ranked 400th in our grade. I feel upset and my mother suggested I spend some time in my hobby—fishing for relaxation. Driving by my mother’s suggestion, I went to a pond on a weekend. There I fished for a whole day but calmed myself down. The joy from fishing successful pushed me out off low spirits.

Today, the world’s diversity (多样性) of food crops is quickly decreasing. But scientists around the world are taking action. They are building seed banks. At seed banks, scientists store the seeds of many different crops.
There are now 1,400 seed banks around the world. However, some banks are in warm countries. If the electricity fails, the seeds will get too hot and die. Other seed banks are in countries troubled by war. Sometimes people damage the seed banks. If this happens, valuable seeds can be lost forever!
The organization Global Crop Diversity Trust decided they wanted to deal with this problem. So, they decided to build a global seed bank. This seed bank would contain a back-up, or extra copy, of all the world’s seeds. Smaller seed banks would still collect and keep local seeds. But they would also send copies of their seeds to the global bank.
Scientists from the Global Crop Diversity Trust chose the cold, snowy mountains of Svalbard, Norway to build the global seed bank — the Svalbard Global Seed Vault (斯瓦尔巴全球种子库). Organizations, farmers, or local seed banks store their extra seeds there. And the people who place their seeds in the vault are the only people who can take them out. They pay to ship their seeds to Norway, but it does not cost them any money to store their seeds. The Global Crop Diversity Trust pays for this.
Cary Fowler is a scientist who heads the Global Crop Diversity Trust. He said, “If the Seed Vault simply supplies seed banks with copies of seeds that those banks lost by accident, the Seed Vault will be worth more than it cost.”
1.Seed banks are built to ______.
A. research on seeds B. produce new seeds
C. protect crop diversity D. increase the number of seeds
2.Compared with other seed banks, the global seed bank ______.
A. was built by the government
B. is more welcomed by farmers
C. is mainly used by great scientists
D. can provide a good environment for seeds
3.What can we learn about the Svalbard Global Seed Vault?
A. It helps to pay the shipping cost.
B. No one can take seeds out of there.
C. There are no fees to store seeds there.
D. It mainly receives seeds from farmers.
4.What is Cary Fowler’s attitude towards the Seed Vault?
A. He feels it is very important. B. He is surprised at it.
C. He thinks it costs too much. D. He is uncertain about it.

The first time she saw Bryce Loski, she flipped. The first time he saw Juli Baker, he ran. For six years of living close by, they had played the same game of cat-and-mouse (Juli was the cat; Bryce was the unfortunate mouse).
For years Juli dreamed of one thing: her first kiss from the boy. Nothing else seemed to matter. But when Juli’s favorite sycamore tree is threatened by developers, things begin to change. She begins to see things and places and people in a different light. Things, for years, she thought to be important, become things she can live without; and people she thought to be the center of her universe, become nothing more than a star in a faraway galaxy.
Things begin changing with Bryce also. It all begins with the eggs…which then cause a domino effect of changes with his relationships with his best friend, his father, the Bakers and, ultimately, Juli.
I had seen this book on the shelf at bookstores for years, but never bothered to pick it up because it looked to be another book from Jerry Spinelli (not exactly my favorite author in the world) and so, continually, I would walk past it without giving it a second glance. If by chance I had picked it up, I most likely would not have read it, since the summary on the back didn’t seem too appealing. It wasn’t until a couple of weeks ago that I heard about Flipped the movie. I read an interview with Callan McAuliffe (the actor who portrays Bryce) and thought that Flipped was a romance right up my alley; cute, innocent and as far from Jane Austin as you could get. After reading the interview and a summary of the movie, I found the plot-line to be somewhat appealing and a definite breath of fresh air opposed to the dark material I have been recently reading and writing. I found the book a few days later in a Goodwill bookstore and finished it in three days.
The story isn’t what you would consider deep…it isn’t shallow and pointless either…I guess you could say it’s the perfect balance of life-lessons and innocence.
You read about Bryce and Juli (each from their own points of view) and how, throughout six years, their lives and views and opinions change and develop. Flipped is somewhat of a coming of age story about two kids learning to see life from the other’s point of view and learning that growing up isn’t about staying the same, but changing; changing likes and dislikes; changing friends and crushes and views on family.
Uniquely written, every other chapter showing the same scenes and events, only from the other’s point of view, you see how the saying, “Two sides to every story,” is true. You are able to see both Juli and Bryce’s reasons for doing what they do and saying what they say…not just what the other sees.
It will be interesting to see how this writing style comes into play in the movie. Overall I thought this story was incredibly cute and light-hearted, although it didn’t entirely meet my expectations. Especially the ending. I felt as though it ended quite abruptly and that there was more story that needed to be told.
But even with that, after having taken a step back and taken my mind off of Flipped, I find the story has stuck with me and stayed in the back of my mind, making me highly anticipate seeing this book turned to a film. I understand why it has been so popular for almost two decades and am looking forward to seeing Flipped on the big screen soon.
1.According to Paragraphs 1 and 2, what is the relationship between Juli Baker and Bryce Loski?
A. Lovers. B. Neighbors.
C. Daughter and father. D. Sister and brother.
2.What has happened to Juli after her favorite sycamore tree is endangered?
A. Bryce Loski has become an insignificant figure in her life.
B. Things and people around her have changed beyond recognition.
C. She has come to realize that she is the center of the universe.
D. The sycamore tree is nothing more than a star in faraway galaxy.
3.Which of the following sentences best expresses the essential information in the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4?
A. After reading the interview with Callan, the author confirmed his pervious attitude to Flipped.
B. After reading the interview with Callan, the author was deep impressed by his story of romance.
C. It was the interview with Callan that made the author realize that it was a book to his taste.
D. It was the performance of Callan that inspired the author to read the original work.
4.According to Paragraph 6, what is the theme of Flipped?
A. Generation gap. B. Growing pains.
C. Forever love. D. Changing lifestyles.
5.In the author’s opinion, Flipped doesn’t provide us readers with ________.
A. a happy ending for Juli and Bryce B. limited appeal for re-appreciation
C. much space for individual imagination D. a smooth ending to the whole story
6.The passage is mainly about ________.
A. a beautiful love story between Juli Baker and Bryce Loski
B. a cute and innocent love story that you shouldn’t miss
C. how an amazing movie was adapted from a love story
D. how a summary prevents readers from moving forward
