24、   With the new school year quickly coming near, it’s time to get ready for a successful term. It’s equally important to take a look at your study skills, too.

Have you ever noticed that your study habits are different from those of your friends? Or how you seem to learn faster in certain classes? Some people are quick to blame the teacher or subject for their difficulties, but that isn’t always the cause. One thing that many people seem to forget is their learning type.

Now, you may be wondering what a learning type is and how to find yours. There are three different  learning  types:  Visual, Auditory,  and  Kinesthetic. You can be a combination  of learning types, but most people have one main type.

1 Visual learners learn best by seeing. If you seem to easily get information from pictures, graphs, and videos, you are likely a visual learner.

2 Auditory learners learn best by hearing. If you seem to remember things by hearing them, whether listening to a lecture or repeating information out loud, then you are likely an auditory learner.

3 Kinesthetic learners learn best by doing. If you seem to learn best by working with your hands or testing out what you are shown, you are likely a kinesthetic learner.

So now that you know your personal learning style, the key is to find out how to use your new-found knowledge to help you in your classes.

【1】According to the speaker, why are some students slower than others in a certain subject?

A.Because they have lost interest in the subject. B.Because they don’t know their learning type.

C.Because the subject is too difficult for them. D.Because their teacher is not good enough.

【2】Which of the following has the same meaning with the underlined word “combination”?

A.Mixture B.success C.failure D.genius

【3】Which of the following is the most possible about this passage?

A.It is an advertisement of a book selling.

26、A teacher had been very annoyed by some of the boys whistling during school hours. At last he knew he would have to punish anyone who repeated the offence（过错）.

The next morning, when the room was quiet, a loud whistle was heard! The students were surprised, and the teacher at once looked around to discover the offender.

The blame（指责）fell on a bad boy who was often in trouble, he strongly denied（否认）whistling. However, his words were not believed, for he was not a truthful boy. The teacher brought him up to be punished.

Seeing what was about to happen, a thin little boy, about nine years old, who had been anxiously watching the event, rose from his seat.

“Do not punish John, sir,” he said to the teacher, “It was I who whistled. I was doing a long hard sum, and when I rubbed out another sum to make room for it, I rubbed out the difficult one by mistake. I spoiled it all, and before I knew what I had done, I had whistled out loud! I am very sorry, I did not mean to whistle, I cannot let John be punished for my fault.” He held out his hand to be punished!

Taking his hand , the teacher said, “Charles, you have done the right thing. You were honest and spoke the truth. I believe that you did not intend to whistle. I cannot punish you, after being so honest. “ Charles returned to his seat with a flushed face, and even the youngest child in the school felt proud of him. Every student could see how bravely he had acted.

Charles was truly a brave boy. He had done that which he knew to be right, even though the same time he might have been punished for it.

True courage may also be shown by refusing to do that which we know is wrong, thought may get into trouble or other children may laugh at us.

A. Charles should be punished for the whistle

【3】John strongly denied whistling to show that ____________.

A. he was afraid of being punished

B. he knew who gave the whistle

C. his words had not been believed

D. he didn’t give the whistle at all

【4】The result of the event was that _________________.

A. John had been wronged and punished

B. Charles was praised for his courage

C. nobody cared about Charles’s action

D. the teacher made a more serious rule

【5】The best title for the passage can be _________________.

A. Teacher’s Mistake   B. True Courage

C. Two Naughty Boys   D. A Sudden Whistle

27、   Have you ever had trouble sleeping in a new place?

Lots of people do. And now researchers from Brown University in Rhode Island think they know why. They found that one-half of the brain “remains more awake” than the other half when people are trying to sleep in a new place.

This appears a case of the brain keeping people ready for trouble in a new place, the researchers said.

The sleep findings were reported in Current Biology by Brown University. In their report, the researchers said many people report they have a harder time sleeping the first night at a hotel or other places outside their home. They call it “first-night influence”. “In Japan they say, ‘If you change your pillow, you can’t sleep,’” said Yuka Sasaki, one of the report’s writers, “You don’t sleep very well in a new place. We all know about it.”

The researchers measured brain waves(测量脑波) for 35 volunteers over two nights in a laboratory. The two nights were a week apart. They found during the first night the left half of the brain was more active than the right half. This was during the first deep-sleep period, the researchers said.

Sasaki said a lot of questions remain.

Researchers did not keep measuring brain waves all night long. So, they don’t know if the left half keeps “watch” all night. Or whether it “works in shifts” with the right half later in the night. They also don’t know why the brain activity, at least during the first period of deep sleep, is always on the left half.

For some, this research may be calming. It is good to know that our brain is “looking out for us” in a new place. But it may not help with sleep. That brain activity, at least according to this new research, makes it harder to get the sleep people need to wake up well rested in the morning.

【1】What did the research find during the first deep-sleep period?

A.They found the brain wave remained the same.

B.They found the brain activity helped with sleep.

C.They found the right half of the brain kept “watch”.

D.They found the left half of the brain was more active.

【2】Which of the following is one of the questions that remain?

A.Whether the new bed keeps you from sleeping.

B.How you have trouble sleeping in a new place.

C.Why the brain activity is always on the left half.

D.What people can do when they can’t sleep well.

【3】The underlined word “calming” has the closest meaning to ______.

A.pleasing B.different C.serious D.strange

【4】What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 7 refer to?

A.The brain wave.

B.The brain activity.

C.The whole brain.

D.The left half of the brain.

28、Dear students,

How is your school life recently? Do you feel stressed out? Have you got better grades? Are you tried of daily exercise? Grade 9 is full of challenges and chances. Maybe most of you have worries and problems. Here is some 【1】 for you.

Being confident （自信的） and patient

To deal with your worries, the first thing you need to do is to believe in 【2】. Nothing is difficult for you if you put your heart into it. Don't be afraid of failure because failure is the mother of success. Another important thing is to be 【3】. All things are difficult before they are easy, so take your time. 【4】 bad your grades are, you will make progress by keeping working all the time.

【5】 a study plan

Time is limited for everyone. Whether or not you can make full use of your time depends on your study plan. Because of the heavy burden （负担） on you, I suggest you make daily, weekly and monthly plans. Set a goal for every exam. Remember not to put off plans until tomorrow. With the help of these different plans, you can have a clearer and better understanding 【6】 the things you need to do every day.

Exercising

Health is wealth （财富）. Even if you hate doing endless repeated exercise every day, you should keep in good health. Every time you think about running away from the morning exercises and planning to 【7】 in the toilet in order not to be found by the teachers, think about your dream. Everyone is trying 【8】 to achieve his dream. Although you can't get good scores in PE. now, you should keep practicing day by day. No one can succeed overnight.

Best wishes for you.
