    Four Steps to Better Learning

    　　Sheela and Nisha had almost the same level of intelligence and came from similar family backgrounds．Sheela found it hard to memorise a poem for an oral test while Nisha did it without any difficulty．　　1　　 Why was there a difference?

    　　The answer is ： Nisha just knew how to learn better than Sheela did．　　2　　 Here are four steps to better learning．

    　　Preview the matter first．Scan or skim over a material quickly．Read the first sentence of each paragraph, glance at the table of contents and the preface．

    　　　　3　　 Speed reading is fine for the easy material．But for more complex works, slower reading is much more effective．Good learners actively think about what they read and assimilate(吸收)it．

    　　Be focused．To improve concentration and focus, fix a particular time and place for studying．Use a variety of methods, like writing down what you’ve read, taping it and then listening to it, making an outline or even drawing a diagram．　　4　　 It will improve your learning capacity(能力)．

    　　　　5　　 Each person has his own way of learning．If given the pieces of an object to assemble(聚集), each of us uses a different method to arrive at the same result．Analyse your approach and follow the method that you feel most comfortable with．

    A．Follow your own learnign style．

    B．Slow down and read it aloud to yourself．

    C．Take a break if you become too tense or tired．

    科目：高中英语 来源： 题型：阅读理解

    Most of us lead unhealthy lives; we spend far too much sitting down. If in addition we are careless about our diets, our bodies soon become loose and fatty and our systems slow?moving. There are some aspects(方面) of our unhealthy lives that we cannot avoid. I am thinking of such features of modern city life as pollution, noise, rushed meals and stress. But keeping fit is a way to reduce the effects of these evils. The usual suggestion to a person who is looking for a way to keep fit is to take up some sport or other. While it is true that every weekend you will find people playing football and hockey in the local park, they are outnumbered a hundred to one by the people who are simply watching them.

    　　For those who do not particularly enjoy competitive sports — and it is especially difficult to do so if you are not good at them — there are such separate activities as cycling, walking, jogging and swimming. What often happens though is that you do them in such a leisurely way, so slowly, that it is doubtful if you are doing yourself much good, except for the fact that you have at least managed to get up out of your armchair.

    　　Even after you have found a way for keeping in shape, through sport or gymnastics, you are still only half way to good health, because, according to the experts, you must also master the art of complete mental and physical relaxation(放松). It has to do with deep breathing, emptying your mind of all thoughts, meditation, and so on. Yoga, as practiced in the West, is the most widely known and popular of the systems for achieving the necessary state of relaxation. It seems ironical (讽刺性的), though, that as our lives have improved in a material sense we have found it increasingly necessary to go back to forms of activity?physical effort on the one hand and relaxation on the other — which were the natural way of life of our forefathers.

    12. Pollution, noise and stress are examples of _____.

    A. causes of unfitness

           B. bad features of living in towns

    C. the things we can completely do away with

           D. unavoidable things in town

    13. We don’t get much out of separate sports because we _____.

    A. don’t do them very often 

           B. don’t do them actively enough

    C. find it hard to get out of our armchairs

           D. don’t find them interesting

    14. To be healthy we must _____.

    A. keep fit and active                                       B. keep fit and learn to relax

    C. be active and practise Yoga                                D. have a sound mind

    15. Our forefathers were healthy because______.

        A. their way of life closely connected with both exercise and relaxation

        B. they were careful to get plenty of fresh air

        C. they spent most of the time out of doors

           D. their environment was not polluted

    You may never connect the words “good” and “eco-friendly”with plastic.It’s time to do a rethink on that as we say hello to hemp(大麻)plastic.Traditionally,plastics have been made from petrochemicals,which are mainly poisonous.Plants,on the other hand,are also a source of cellulose(纤维素),which can be used to make biodegradable (生物所能分解的)plastic.As hemp happens to be one of the richest sources of cellulose,it is only natural that scientists will support its use,considering its ecological benefits.
    Hemp plastic is biodegradable and recyclable.If you thought being eco-friendly reduced its solidity,you couldn’t be more wrong.The hard level of hemp plastic can match that of regular plastic.Hemp plastic is resistant to heat;however,the most outstanding feature of a few varieties of hemp plastic is that they are flame resistant too.Finally,if Henry Ford could imagine creating a car with this material,we can perhaps believe that it indeed is“ten times stronger than steel”.
    It is a pity that with so many useful qualities,we don’t see hemp plastic being used in our everyday life,the way it ought to be.Hemp plastic can easily take the place of the exiting plastic in products like cell phone chargers(充电器),laptop covers,etc.Currently,hemp plastic is being used to produce audio(音响设备),video,toys,automobile parts and packaging materials.
    Hemp fiber is one of the strongest natural fibers known to us.As scientists keep looking for ways to solve the ecological damage that traditional plastics have caused,here is a material that can be produced to be 100% biodegradable.Hemp plastic is known to be several times durable as compared to polypropylene(聚丙烯)plastic,and it comes without all the health and safety threats,It really has long useful life.
    Plastics keep reminding us of the damage that we have done to our planet,all under the excuse of convenience.As hemp products have become a new choice into our daily life,Please take a green plan now and make your effort to protect the environment.

    Levi Strauss was born in Bavaria (巴伐利亚) in Europe in 1829. He emigrated（移居）to the United States of America when he was seventeen years old. His brothers sold cloth, and he worked for them even though he could not speak English very well. At this time many people were moving to California because gold was discovered there. Strauss went to look for gold, too.
    Strauss took a lot of cloth with him to San Francisco. He thought that he could make tents out of the cloth and sell them to people working in the gold fields. But when he got there, he saw that people had a greater need for clothes than tents. Clothes did not last very long in the gold fields. At first Strauss made pants out of canvas（帆布）. They were very strong ---- much stronger than other pants. Soon everyone was wearing them , so he decided only to make pants. He opened a small store and made a lot of money from selling pants.
    After a while, Strauss found a material even stronger than canvas. It came from a town in France called Nimes. The French called the material serge de Nimes, which means “cloth from Nimes”. The Americans called it denim. Strauss also bought some cloth from Genoa, a town in Italy. To Americans this name sounds like “jeans”, so they called his pants jeans. The cloth that Strauss used was always blue, so people also called his pants blue jeans and blue denims. Other people called them Levi’s. Levi Strauss jeans are some of the best-selling jeans in the world today. They last a long time and are very comfortable.
