The words “timetable” and “schedule” make most final year students want to eat their own vomit(呕吐物). Unfortunately, the harsh reality is that final year students must develop a timetable. If you don’t have a schedule or plan for studying, you will have no way of allocating your valuable time when the unexpected arises. A well-thought-out timetable can be a lifesaver. It is up to you to learn how to develop a schedule that meets your needs .Change it if necessary, but most important, follow it. All timetables should be made with the idea that they can be changed. A good one will keep you from wandering off course.

       A good timetable should make every hour count—every class, social event and other activity you engage in .You must focus on the other “free time” available and how you will use it. Make a weekly schedule and divided each day into one-hour increments. Indicate times for classes, socializing, and work time. Also block off a period for sleeping every day. In the precious hours left over, plan time for study. This gives you a rough road map of the time available. Of course, you can change your schedule as circumstances need.

       The timetable you develop should guide you in how to distribute the available time in the most productive manner. Sticking to your schedule can be tough, but don’t dribble away valuable time. Avoiding study is the easiest thing in the world. It is up to you to follow the schedule you’ve prepared. A good deal of your success in high school and with any future study depends on this simple truth.

       Remember, there is a learning curve. You learn the most in the first 30 minutes of study; after that, it progressively deteriorates(减弱). After four or five hours of studying the same material in the same way, you are learning virtually nothing. The solution is to keep switching subjects and study styles.

1.What is the best title of the passage?

       A.Advantages of starting a timetable  B.Keep to it, and you will succeed

       C.Make a schedule, and follow it      D.Learn to love your timetable

2.What does Paragraph 2 talk about?

       A.Tips for making a schedule.            B.Significance of a scientific timetable.

       C.Requirements for making a timetable.    D.Importance of following one’s schedule.

3.The following are characteristics of a good timetable EXCEPT that     .

       A.it can be changed            B.it is flexible

       C.it is of many periods           D.it can save our time

4.From this passage, we can learn if we wish to achieve high learning efficiency, we’d better     .

       A.shift subjects and use different methods regularly

       B.devote to the same material continuously

       C.turn to teachers for help if necessary

       D.have a break every thirty minutes

You can’t always predict a heavy rain or remember your umbrella. But designer Mikhail Belvacv doesn’t think that forgetting to check the weather forecast before heading out should result in you getting wet. That’s why he created lampbrella, a lamp post with its own rain sensing umbrella.

The designer says he come up with the idea after watching people get wet on streets in Russia. “once, I was driving on a central Saint Petersburg street and saw the street lamps lighting up people trying to hide from the rain. I thought it would be appropriate to have a canopy(伞蓬)built into a street lamp.” he said.

The lampbrella is a standard-looking street lamp fitted with an umbrella canopy. It has a built-in electric motor which can open or close the umbrella on demand. Sensors(传感器)then ensure that the umbrella offers pedestrians shelter whenever it starts raining.

In addition to the rain sensor, there’s also a 360°motion sensor on the biberglass street lamp which detects whether anyone’s using the lampbrella. After three minutes of not being used the canopy is closed.

According to the designer, the lampbrella would move at a relatively low speed, so as not to cause harm to the pedestrians. Besides, it would be grounded to protect from possible lighting strike. Each lampbrella would offer enough shelter for several people. Being installed at 2 meters off the ground, it would only be a danger for the tallest of pedestrians.

While there are no plans to take lampbrella into production, Belyacv says he recently introduced his creation one Moscow Department, and insists this creation could be installed on any street where a lot of people walk but there are no canopies to provide shelter.

1.For what purpose did Belyacv create the lampbrella?

A.To predict a heavy rain                   B.To check the weather forecast

C.To protect people from the rain             D.To remind people to take an umbrella

2.What do we know from Belyacv’s words in Paragraph2?

A.His creation was inspired by an experience

B.it rains a lot in the city of Saint Petersburg

C.Street lamps are protected by canopies

D.He enjoyed taking walks in the rain

3.Which of the following show how the lampbrella works?

A.motor→canopy→sensors                 B.Sensors→motor→canopy

C.motor→sensors→canopy                 D.canopy→motor→sensors

4.What does paragraph 5 mainly tell us about the lampbrella?

A.Its moving speed                        B.Its appearance

C.Its installation                          D.Its safety

5.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

A.The designer will open a company to promote his product

B.The lampbrella could be put into immediate production

C.The designer is confident that his creation is practical

D.The lampbrella would be put on show in Moscow
