Tony Buzan’s grades were going down at university. Disappointed with his low marks, he went to the library to find a book on how to use his brain. He was directed to the medical section. Confused, he said to the librarian, “I don’t want to take my brain out, I just want to learn how to use it.” Her reply was simple: “There’s no book on that.”
“I thought to myself,” says Buzan, “if I buy a little radio, I get an instruction manual (说明书). If I buy a microwave, I get an instruction manual. But for the most important machine in the world, no instruction manual?”
Fifty years later, Buzan has become the world’s leading speaker on the brain and learning. In the late 1960s, he invented the mind map, a visual representation of thought processes.
This kind of thinking has become a popular tool for planning, organizing, problem solving, and communicating across the world. He has since authored and co-authored over 100 books that have appeared in more than 30 languages.
“I think in most cases, people use less than 1 percent of their brains,” he says.
But how do you expand this 1 percent? How do you become the best student you can be?
According to Buzan, the answer is simple. You take a section of whatever it is that you are trying to learn, he says, and you read it for its essence (精髓、要素). Then you make a mind map of all the important details. For a truly effective mind map, you start with a colored image in the center of your page. Draw the first image that comes to mind on the topic you are mind mapping. Branch off from your central image and create one of your main ideas. From your main branches draw some sub-branches and from those sub-branches you can draw even more branches. He emphasizes that you should use plenty of images and colors as these help with memory recall and encourage creativity.
By using this visual format (形式), according to Buzan, your mind will begin to make associations that will help you remember more information for longer periods of time.
Buzan believes that traditional note-taking methods, such as lists and summaries, do not stimulate the brain’s recall capacity or ability in the same way. Because of this, students will often find themselves locked away in their rooms for hours, trying hard to memorize separate details. Buzan believes that for a more effective and lasting way of studying, you must first understand how your brain works.
“Everyone is born smart,” he says. “You just have to learn how to learn.”
【小题1】What is the main purpose of the first two paragraphs?

A.To show that Tony Buzan was worried about his study.
B.To invite us to think about the importance of manuals.
C.To prove that the mind map is a useful tool for the brain.
D.To show why Tony Buzan studies the brain and learning.
【小题2】What does the word “stimulate” mean in the passage?
A.Excite.B.Improve.C.Encourage.D.Affect.
【小题3】What can we infer from the passage?
A.If we learn the mind map, we will become the best student.
B.The mind map will help your brain connect separate details.
C.The mind map will be more effective if we put more details in it.
D.We will solve the problem if we make connections between ideas.
【小题4】What is the best title for the passage?
A.How to make the mind map?
B.Is the mind map widely used?
C.Can your memory be mapped?
D.Is the mind map helpful in thinking?

“I’m going to wear a black dress, so everybody will notice me,” said Emily. “How about you, Linda?”

“What are we going to do about the boys?” asked Jane. “Do you remember the last school party, last year? They just stood there, and we girls had to dance by ourselves!”

Qi Haoran, a Junior 1 student at High School Attached to Harbin Institute of Technology, was quite busy over the past winter vacation—and not just with homework. Qi, together with 10 other classmates made a volunteer group to call on people to join the Clean Your Plate Campaign (光盘行动).
The 11 students went to many restaurants and told people the importance of saving food.“Excuse me, do you know that 950 million people around the world still haven’t got enough to eat? Could you please not waste food?”They would say this kind of thing hundreds of times every day.
China in recent years has experienced serious problems with wasted food. CCTV reported in January that the food Chinese people waste every year is enough to feed 200 million people for a year. It’s a tradition that Chinese people offer lots of food when they invite others to dinner. Many even feel that they will lose face if their guests have eaten all their food.
Luckily the campaign has got the support of many. In a restaurant in Xinjiang, the owner gives the guests who have eaten up all that they ordered a sticker. People can enjoy a free meal when they have 10 stickers. More than 750 restaurants in Beijing have begun to offer smaller dishes and encourage their guests to take leftovers(剩饭剩菜) home.
Wasting food is a serious problem around the world, not only in China. It’s said that 2 billion tons(吨) of food ends up as waste every year in our country. This is as much as half of all the food in the world. The UN Environment Program and the Food and Agriculture Organization held a“Think, Eat, Save” program on January 24 to help reduce food waste.
To reduce food waste is a big task, and it needs time. It’s important that everyone does their bit, just like Qi. Did you finish your meals today?
【小题1】The Clean Your Plate Campaign calls on people to __________.

A.do volunteer workB.work part time in restaurants
C.stop wasting foodD.wash their plates after dinner
【小题2】What did the restaurant in Xinjiang do to support the campaign?
A.The owner would have dinner with those who had eaten up their food.
B.It offered a free meal to the guests who had finished all their food ten times.
C.It gave stickers to the guests who ordered small dishes.
D.It encouraged customers to take leftovers home.
【小题3】From the passage , we can know that __________.
A.wasting food is a serious problem in China
B.Chinese people waste the most food in January
C.200 million Chinese people invite others to dinner every day
D.Chinese people usually don’t offer enough food to their guests
