【解析】本文是一篇记叙文。本文主要讲述了一个小偷去偷教授东西的时候把彩票丢了,后来被教授捡到了,结果教授发现彩票中奖了,教授并没有去领奖,而是把彩票还给了小偷。

1细节理解题。由文中Thenhebeganabattlewithhisconscience.Finally,hedecidedhecouldnotkeepthemoneydespitehavingbeenrobbed.Headvertisedinnewspapers andontheradio.可知,教授看到中奖的信息,当时不知道怎么办,思考了一会才决定他不能要这个钱,C选项是错误的,ABD都正确,但是题干选除...外,故C选项正确。

2细节理解题。由文中ProfessorSabbatuccireceivedhundredsofcallsfrompeoplehopingtotrickhimintohandingthemthecash可知,很多人给教授打电话,因为他们都想拿到这笔钱,故B选项正确。

3细节理解题。由文中Hecouldnotbelievewhatwashappening.可知,当教授想找这个小偷的时候,他不敢相信。Incredible难以置信的,故D选项正确。

4主旨大意题。通读全文,我们可以知道,这个小偷偷东西时丢了彩票,后来彩票中奖了,教授居然没有去要这笔钱,而是把钱还给了小偷,可见这个小偷非常的幸运,所以,题目为AThief’sLuckyDay 更合适,故A选项正确。

【题目】阅读下列四篇短文,从每小题后所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。
B
One day when I was 12, my mother gave me an order: I was to walk to the public library, and borrow at least one book for the summer. This was one more weapon for her to defeat my strange problem — inability to read.
In the library, I found my way into the “Children's Room.” I sat down on the floor and pulled a few books off the shelf at random. The cover of a book caught my eye. It presented a picture of a beagle. I had recently had a beagle, the first and only animal companion I ever had as a child. He was my secret sharer, but one morning, he was gone, given away to someone who had the space and the money to care for him. I never forgot my beagle.
There on the book's cover was a beagle which looked identical to my dog. I ran my fingers over the picture of the dog on the cover. My eyes ran across the title, Amos, the Beagle with a Plan. Unknowingly, I had read the title. Without opening the book, I borrowed it from the library for the summer.
Under the shade of a bush, I started to read about Amos. I read very, very sl owly with difficulty. Though pages were turned slowly, I got the main idea of the story about a dog who, like mine, had been separated fr om his family and who finally found his way back home. That dog was my dog, and I was the little boy in the book. At the end of the story, my mind continued the final scene of reunion, on and on, until my own lost dog and I were, in my mind, running together.
My mother's call returned me to the real world. I suddenly realized something: I had read a book, and I had loved reading that book. Everyone knew I could not read. But I had read it. Books could be incredibly wonderful and I was going to read them.
I never told my mother about my “miraculous” (奇迹般地) experience that summer, but she saw a slow but remarkable improvement in my classroom performance during the next year. And years later, she was proud that her son had read thousands of books, was awarded a PhD in literature, and authored his own books, articles, poetry and fiction. The power of the words has held.
(1)The author's mother told him to borrow a book in order to _____.
A.help cure him of his reading problem
B.let him spend a meaningful summer
C.encourage him to do more walking
D.make him learn more about weapons
(2)The book caught the author's eye because _____.
A.it contained pretty pictures of animals
B.he found its title easy to understand
C.it reminded him of his own dog
D.he liked children’s stories very much
(3)Why could the author manage to read the book through?
A.He was forced by his mother to read it.
B.He identified with the story in the book.
C.The book told the story of his pet dog.
D.The happy ending of the story attracted him.
(4)What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A.The author has had happy summers ever since.
B.The author's mother read the same book.
C.The author's mother rewarded him with books.
D.The author has become a successful writer.

The sleeping hours need for an average adult range from ranges from 7 to 9 hours. Just keep in mind that your body is not wired in same way your computer is. You couldn't have instantaneous change. Let you have at least 1 to 2 weeks minimum to start sleeping a little earlier regularly. And this sort of timeline is meant for small changes, like 15 minutes to 30 minutes earlier than your current sleeping

But this is an absolutely must. Without sleep, your body and mind are weak, slow, and definitely not energetic enough to accommodate(容纳)any new activities you want to do.

【题目】How to Prepare for an Exam

1 There’s no need to be tense (紧张的) or cram (死记硬背). By doing a couple simple things ahead you can ensure that you are confident and ready for anything that comes up on the test.

2 After you have taken notes from studying all of your material including the book and your notes, use that information to make flash cards. Turn statements into questions

Quiz yourself. Once everything is written down on flashcards, quiz yourself with the cards. Keep reviewing the questions that you get wrong until you get them right. You can carry flashcards around with you and quiz yourself when you’re on the subway or riding in the car.3 Definitely continue to quiz yourself until you get them all right.

Do practice questions.4 Practice doing the questions in the book that you were assigned for homework. Do extra questions in the back of the book. Re-do questions that you got wrong, and try to figure out why you got them wrong. Do practice questions until you feel more comfortable with subject matter.

On the day of the exam, set your alarm at least two hours before the test. Scientists believe that a good night’s rest is the key to better test scores. An hour and a half before the exam, start running through all the themes and sub-topics in your head. Like always, check your notes if you get stuck. Use your flashcards to help you commit all the tiny details to memory if they’re not already memorized.5 If you’re given yourself enough time to study, you should feel well prepared and relaxed.

A. Goon a balanced diet.

B. Take exercise and keep it up.

C. Make flash cards.

D. This is especially helpful for subjects such as math.

E. You might quiz yourself for a half hour or so, then take a break

F. Stop studying at least 15 minutes before the exam, but an hour is preferable.

G. Preparing for an exam can be stressful and time-consuming, but it doesn’t have to be.
