Taking good notes is a time-saving skill that will help you to become a better student in several ways.   71  . Second, your notes are excellent materials to refer to when you are studying for a test. Third, note-taking offers variety to your study time and helps you to hold your interest .

You will want to take notes during classroom discussions and while reading a textbook or doing research for a report.   72  .  Whenever or however you take notes, keep in mind that note-taking is a selective process(挑选的过程).   73  .  

The following methods may work best for you.

● Read the text quickly to find the main facts and ideas in it.  

● Carefully read the text and watch for words that can show main points and supporting facts.

● Write your notes in your own words.  

●   74  ．  

● Note any questions or ideas you may have about what was said or written.  

As you take notes, you may want to use your own shorthand(速记). When you do, be sure that you understand your symbols and that you use them all the time.   75  ．

A. Use words, not complete sentences.  

B. There are three practical note-taking methods.  

C. You must write your notes on separate paper.  

D. Otherwise, you may not be able to read your notes later.  

E. you will also want to develop your own method for taking notes.

Zoos divide opinion: there are those who think it is cruel (残忍的) to keep animals locked up while others believe zoos are important for the survival of endangered species.

To think that zoos imprison animals is to misunderstand what zoos are about. Without zoos many of the creatures we love and admire would no longer exist. Every single day, over one hundred animal species vanish. Scientists predict that as early as 2050 one quarter of the Earth’s species will become extinct(绝种的).

Some animals are in danger because they are hunted. Worriedly, the population of tigers has already fallen by ninety-five percent. Other species are in danger because of a lack of food. For example, there are fewer than 1300 giant pandas left in the wild.

Zoos have special breeding programs to help those animals in danger. These breeding programs are proving very successful. As Irene Shapiro from Zoo and Wildlife Support says, “the Puerto Rican Parrot has grown in numbers from just thirteen to about eighty-five and the Golden Lion Tamarin Monkey, which has almost died out twenty years ago, has been reintroduced back into the wild. ”

Unfortunately, not everyone understands this important role zoos play. For example, Brian Featherstone from the Anti-Zoo Forum says, “I can’t believe we take animals from the wild and put them in cages for the entertainment of the public! We should view them on film or TV in their natural environment.”

However, this misses the point. A zoo does more than display animals to the public. It ensures their survival. Without zoos you would not be able to see many of these animals on TV or anywhere else!

67. What’s the writer’s attitude towards zoos?

A. He shows no opinion either for or against them.

B. He thinks that they are unnecessary and cruel.

C. He believes they play an important environmental role.

D. He expresses a desire that more of them be built.

68. The underlined word “vanish” in Paragraph 2 most probably means _________.

A. remain           B. disappear      C. become rarer         D. get killed

69. According to the passage some people do not agree with zoos because they ________.

A. are too expensive to run                   B. put animals in danger

C. do not provide enough food            D. keep animals locked up

70. According to the writer, the most important function of the zoo is to _________.

A. make a lot of money                     B. entertain visitors

C. ensure animals’ survival                   D. educate the public

Travel is exciting and summer is a busy period for holiday travel. Many people will travel great distances in airplanes, cars or other vehicles. Experts say people should know about other health problems that can strike when traveling by air.

One of these is a condition called hypoxia (缺氧症). It results from a lack of oxygen to the brain. Experts say the body begins losing oxygen minutes after an airplane leaves the ground. The air pressure in a plane during flight is lower than at sea level. This makes it more difficult for the body to effectively use the same amount of oxygen as it would on the ground. Fewer oxygen molecules （分子） cross the tissues (组织) in the lungs and reach the bloodstream.

The result is a five to twenty percent drop in the amount of oxygen in the blood. This reduces the amount of oxygen that reaches the organs of the body.

One effect of this lack of oxygen to the brain is a headache. When this happens, the heart attempts to fix the situation by beating harder and faster. This can make the traveler feel tired.

These signs of hypoxia are not dangerous in a healthy person. But a drop in oxygen level can cause a health emergency in people with heart or lung problems. They might lose consciousness or even suffer a heart attack.

Experts say that smoking cigarettes and drinking alcoholic liquids also reduce the body’s ability to use oxygen. So they suggest that people not drink alcohol or smoke cigarettes either before or during a flight. They also say persons with heart or lung problems should seek advice from their doctors before flying.

63. The author writes the passage mainly to __________.

A. warn people in airplanes of possible dangers

B. offer some advice on avoiding health problems

C. explain the causes and effects of hypoxia

D. advise people not to smoke or drink alcohol

64. According to the passage, what leads to hypoxia?

A. The brain lacks enough oxygen.       

B. The air pressure in a plane is too high.

C. Our body needs less oxygen during takeoff.

D. The bloodstream contains no oxygen molecules.

65. The underlined part “fix the situation” means “_________”.

A. use more oxygen it needs                        B. increase the air pressure

C. reduce the amount of blood              D. bump more blood to the brain

66. Why should passengers not smoke or drink before flying?

A. They weaken the body’s ability to use oxygen.

B. Smoking may pollute the air inside the airplane.

C. Drinking alcohol may raise one’s blood pressure.

D. Drinking is forbidden at the airport.

Swimming is one of those activities that can be learned early in life. Little children can learn to swim as soon as they walk. In fact, you need the same skills in walking as in swimming. However, I believe that five is the best age to learn. By five or six, a child knows fear of water, a very important thing to know. It’s wise to be afraid, to recognize true danger. Young ones understand that the water can sometimes be very dangerous. 

To really benefit from swimming, every swimmer should learn, as soon as possible, these four basic strokes: butterfly, backstroke, breaststroke, and crawl. I feel that one of these ---the breaststroke is different from the others, since some young swimmers use this stroke naturally, without any training. 

In swimming there are certain rules every swimmer should follow: 

1. Never swim alone! No matter how good you are in the water, don’t risk drowning by swimming alone. If you swim by yourself, with no life guards or friends with you, you may get into trouble. 

2. Don’t go beyond your abilities. Most swimmers know enough not to swim too far from the bank or the beach. Showing off by doing dangerous tricks is no good. Swim safely and you will continue to swim and alive. 

3. Don’t smoke. Swimming depends on a healthy body; good lungs are part of it. 

4. Work at any activity that builds muscles. 

59. Little children can learn to swim as soon as ________. 

A. they can talk                      B. they start walking

C. they have no fear of the water        D. they are five or six years old 

60. The author believes that fear of water is_________. 

A. stupid                                    B. sensible（明智的）    

C. dangerous                                  D. not smart 

61. The stroke that some young swimmers use first is_________.

A. butterfly                                     B. backstroke   

C. breaststroke                                 D. crawl

62. According to the passage, you should not swim alone because_________. 

A. the water is too cold             

B. your parents would not be happy 

C. something in the water might attack   

D. you might drown

One day I took several pairs of shoes to the shoemaker to be mended. After a week I went to take them back. Four months later, my husband and I were invited to dinner. I took out a pair of shoes. I hadn’t worn them since they were mended. I put one shoe on my right foot, and then I put the other on my left. But I felt that the other one was on the wrong foot. I took both shoes off for a closer look. They were nearly the same style, colour and size, but each was for the right foot. Then I thought of the shoemaker. Though I was sure he wouldn’t remember me after such a long time, I called him. “Thank goodness you called me at last!”  He said happily. “An angry woman has been troubling me for months!”

56. How many pairs of shoes did the woman take to the shoemaker to be mended?

A. One shoe.                                           B. Two pairs of shoes.   

C. Only three shoes.                                  D. Some pairs of shoes.

57. The shoemaker __________.

A. was very careful with his work     

B. mistook one of the woman’s shoes for the other woman’s

C. forgot the woman because it happened a long time ago  

D. was troubled by two men

58. Which of the following is right?

A. The woman wore the shoes as soon as they were mended.

Around the world more and more people are    36  dangerous sports and activities. Of course there have always been people who have   37   adventure--those who have climbed the  38    mountains, explored unknown parts of the world or   39    in small boats across the greatest oceans. Now, however, there are people who look for an immediate pleasure from a    40    activity which may only last a few minutes or even    41   .

I would consider bungee jumping to be a good example of such an activity. You   42   from a high place about 200 meters above the ground with an elastic rope    43   to your ankles. You   44    at up to 150 kilometers an hour until the rope stops you from   45    the ground. It is said that 2 million people around the world have now   46    bungee jumping. Other activities,   47    most people would say are as dangerous as bungee jumping,    48    jumping from tall buildings and    49  into the sea from the top of high rocks.

Why do people take part in such activities as these? Some psychologists(心理学家) suggest that it is because life in   50    societies has become safe and boring. Not very long ago, people’s lives were constantly under    51   . They had to go out and hunt for   52   , and life was a continuous battle for survival.

Nowadays, according to many people, life offers   53  excitement. They live and work in relatively safe condition; they buy food in shops; and there are doctors and hospitals to  54      them if they become ill. The answer for some of these people is to   55  danger in activities such as bungee jumping.
