      Sheela spent three days memorizing a poem for an oral test, but her friend Nisha merely scanned a new
poem twice before reciting it from memory! Why then was there a difference? Nisha just knew how to learn
better than Sheela. She had increased the ability of her brain by using some skills. Here are some steps to better
learning.
     Preview the matter first: That is, don't plunge headlong into reading new, unfamiliar material. You can
understand more if you first scan it or skim over it quickly. Read the first sentence of each paragraph, and
glance at the table of contents and the preface.
     Slow down and read it aloud to yourself: Speed reading is fine for easy material but for more complex
works, slower reading is much more effective. Good learners vocalize (发声), either loudly or in their minds,
listening to each word as they read. They also actively think about what they read and take in it.
     Organize facts into categories: For instance, if you have to memorize a jumbled list containing names of
animals, types of transport, items of clothing and kinds of jobs, it is easier if you divide them into groups or
categories. Dividing it into smaller, meaningful parts makes it easier to learn.
     Be focused: To improve concentration (专心) and focus, fix a particular time and place for studying. Use
a variety of methods, like writing down what you've read or taping it and then listening to it, or making an
outline.
     Follow your own learning style: Each person has his own way of learning. lf given the pieces of an object
to assemble (集合), each of us uses a different method to arrive at the same result. Analyze your approach and
follow the method that you feel most comfortable with.
1. The passage mainly tells us _____.
A. some ways to listen carefully
B. some new memorizing skills
C. some methods for reading complex works
D. some good learning skills
2. The example of Sheela and Nisha is used to _____.
A. show the difference between people in learning ability
B. explain the difficulty in memorizing poems
C. teach people how to memorize a poem quickly
D. introduce the main topic - learning skills
3. The underlined sentence in the passage probably means " _____".
A. don't read new, unfamiliar material at all
B. don't read new, unfamiliar material without thinking carefully
C. don't read material with your head forward
D. don't read new, unfamiliar material that is too long
4. The underlined word "jumbled" in the passage probably means "_____ ".
A. mixed
B. detailed
C. divided
D. related
5. Which of the following is advised by the author?
A. Listening to whatever you are reading.
B. Reading all passages at slow speed.
C. Taking an active part in your reading.
D. Reading the last sentence of each paragraph

第三部分:阅读理解(共20小题,每小题2分,满分40分)

I made a promise to myself on the way down to the vacation beach cottage. For two weeks I would try to be a loving husband and father. Totally loving. No ifs, ands or buts.

The idea had come to me as I listened to a talk on my car radio. The speaker was quoting a Biblical passage about husbands and their wives. Then he went on to say, “Love is an act of will. A person can choose to love.” To myself, I had to admit that I had been a selfish husband. Well, for two weeks that would change.

And it did. On arriving at the beach cottage, I kissed Evelyn meeting me at the door and said, “That new yellow sweater looks great on you.” “Oh, Tom, you noticed”, sh e said, surprised and pleased. Maybe a little puzzled. After the long drive, I wanted to sit and read. Evelyn suggested a walk on the beach. I  started to refuse, but then I thought, “Evelyn’s been alone here with the kids all week and now she wants to be alone with me.” We walked on the beach while the children flew their kites.

So it went. Two weeks of not calling the Wall Street firm where I am a director; a visit to the shell museum though I usually hate museums. Relaxed and happy, that’s how the whole vacation passed. I made a new promise to keep on remembering to choose love.?

There was one thing that went wrong with my experiment, however. Evelyn and I still laugh about it today. On the last night at our cottage, preparing for bed, Evelyn stared at me with the saddest expression.

“What’s the matter?” I asked her.

“Tom,” she said in a voice filled with distress, “ I don’t?”

“What do you mean?”

“Well…that checkup I had several weeks ago…our doctor…did he tell you something about me? Tom, you’ve been so good to me…am I dying?”

It took a moment for it all to be understood. Then I burst out laughing.

“No, honey,” I said, wrapping her in my arms. “You’re not dying; I’m just starting to live.”

1.  From the story we may infer that Tom drove to the beach cottage ______.

A. with his family     B. with Evelyn    C. alone      D. with his children

2. During the two weeks on the beach, Tom showed more love to his wife because ______.

A. he was determined to be a good husband

B. he had made a lot of money in his Wall Street firm

C. she looked lovely in  her new clothes

D. the doctor said his wife was seriously ill

3. The author says, “There was one thing that went wrong with my experiment.” What does “one thing” refer to?

A. He praised her sweater, which puzzled her.

B. She insisted on visiting a museum, which he hated.

C. He knew something about her illness but didn’t tell her.

D. He was so good to her that she thought she must be dying.

4. By saying “I’m just starting to live,” Tom means that ______.

A. he is just beginning to understand the real meaning of life

B. he is just beginning to enjoy life as a loving husband

C. he lived an unhappy life before and is now starting to change

D. he is beginning to feel regret for what he did to his wife before
