It was the last day of final examinations at a large college. On the steps of one building, a group of engineering students were discussing the exam that was ahout to begin. On their faces was confidence. This was their last exam before they graduated(畢業(yè))and found jobs.
Some talked of jobs they already had，others of jobs they would get. With four years of college study，they felt ready and able to conquer(征服)the world.
The coming exam，they knew，would be easy. The professor(教授)had said they could bring any books or notes they wanted，but they couldn’t talk to each other during the test.
They walked into the classroom. The professor passed out the papers. The students’ smiles became wide as they saw that there were only five essay-type questions.
Three hours passed and the exam came to an end. Then the professor began to collect the papers. The students no longer looked confident. They seemed worried. No one spoke as the professor faced the class with the papers in her hand.
She looked at all the worried faces in front of her, and then asked，“How many students completed all five questions?”
Not a hand was put up.
‘‘How many of you answered four?” Still no hands.
“Three?Two?”The students moved restlessly in their seats.
“One，then. Certainly somebody finished one．”But the class stayed silent. The professor put down the papers.“That is just what I expected，”she said.
“I just wanted to make sure you realize that even though you have studied engineering for four years, there are still many things about the subject you don’t know. Instead of testing you on what you learned in this class, I’ve given you questions that skilled engineers face in the world outside the classroom. You can’t expect to be an expert(專家)on the day you graduate. You have to learn as you go.”
Then，smiling, she added，“You will all pass this course, but remember that your education has just begun.’’
小題1:What does the underlined word“restlessly”mean in the passage?
A．confidentIyB．proudlyC．excitedlyD．nervously
小題2:Why did the professor design the final exam in such a way?
A．To make the students realize that they still had much to learn after graduation.
B．To find out whether the students could put what they had learned into practice.
C．To show that she had much more knowledge than her students in engineering.
D．To examine whether the students learned what they had been taught in her class.
小題3:What can be the best title of the passage?
A．A Playful JokeB．A Lucky Chance
C．A Strange ProfessorD．A Special Exam

小題1:D
小題1:A
小題1:D
【主旨大意】本文講述了即將畢業(yè)的大學(xué)生參加最后一次畢業(yè)考試，開考之前，人人信心十足，但考完試后，沒有考試前的自信和高興，反而變得更加憂慮了，通過教授的詢問，教授鼓勵大家要繼續(xù)學(xué)習(xí)，不要滿足于現(xiàn)狀。

A student newspaper reports that most students go to sleep at 1:30 am. Even if that’s an overstatement (夸張), it’s close to the truth. Scientists say teens should sleep nine hours each night. But that’s hard. Some are even “pulling all-nighters” (開夜車). These students must hand in their homework the next day but they haven’t done it. In the morning they don’t look healthy and you can tell who’s been doing it. One of my classmates did a survey on the topic. She found that most kids pull all-nighters to finish homework, but some do it for other reasons, such as playing computer games!
Maybe our lack(缺乏) of sleep is because of laziness — I think I’m a rather lazy student — or maybe it’s because we have too much to do in American high schools. I usually go to bed around midnight. If I stayed up past 1:30 am, I wouldn’t get any work done. I’d be falling asleep at my computer. My classes begin at 7:30 am. I’m partly awake in my first class. By the second, I’m a little sleepy. By my third class, I’m sleepy. By midday I’m finally fully awake. But by 3:00 pm, I’m slowing down again. Yet I get more sleep than usual students.
Most American high schools seem to have a similar(相似的) problem with sleepy students. High school classes start at 7:30 am, so students have to get up one and a half hours before that to get ready and catch the bus. It’s believed that lack of sleep can be bad for both grades and health. Some schools are paying attention. Classes in those schools start at 8:30 am.
小題1:What does the underlined sentence “it’s close to the truth” mean?
A．It doesn’t tell the truth. B．It is quite true.
C．It is impossible.D．I don’t think it’s right.
小題2:Why do most of the teens have to stay up late?
A．They play computer games.B．They watch videos late.
C．They have to do a lot of housework.D．They have to do a lot of homework.
小題3:When do students in most American high schools have to get up?
A．At 7:30 am.B．At 6:00 am.C．At 9:00 am.D．At about 7:00 am.
小題4:Which of the following is TRUE according to the reading?
A．The writer usually stays up past 1:30 am.
B．The writer usually goes to bed around midnight.
C．The writer usually does a survey.
D．Many American students don’t get enough sleep, so they can have high grades.
小題5:What’s the main idea of the passage?
A．Something has to be done to solve the problem of students’ lack of sleep.
B．Many American high school students are sleepy in class.
C．Many kids have too much homework to do.
D．Students can’t play computer games.

When you are learning English, you find it not clever to put an English sentence, word for word, into your own language. Take the sentence “How do you do?” as an example. If you looked up each word in the dictionary, once at a time, what is your translation （翻譯）? It must be a wrong sentence in your own language.
Languages do not just have different sounds; they are different in many ways. Its important to master（掌握）the rules for word order in the study of English, too. If the speaker puts words in a wrong order, the listener can’t understand his sentence easily. Sometimes when the order of words in an English sentence is changed, the meaning of the sentence changes. But sometimes the order is changed, but the meaning of the sentence doesn’t change. Let’s see the different between the two parts of sentences.
“She only likes apples.” “Only she likes apples.”
“I have seen the film already.” “I have already seen the film.”
When you are learning English, you must do your best to get the spirit（精神實質(zhì)） of the language and use it as the English speaker does.
小題1:From the passage we know that __________when we are learning English.
A．we shouldn’t put every word into our own language
B．we should look up every word in the dictionary
C．we need to put every word into our own language
D．we must read word by word
小題2:The writer thinks it is ________ in learning English.
A．difficult to understand different sounds
B．possible to remember the word order
C．important to master the rules in different ways
D．easy to master the rules for word order
小題3:We can learn from the passage that _________ .
A．the meaning of an English sentence always changes with the order of words
B．the order of words can never change the meaning of an English sentence
C．sometimes a different order of words has a different meaning
D．if the order of words is different, the meaning of the sentence must be different
小題4:“She only likes apples.”____________.
A．is the same as “Only she likes apples.”
B．is different from “Only she likes apples.”
C．means “She likes fruit except apples.”
D．means “She doesn’t like apples.”
小題5:Which is the best title（題目）for this passage?
A．Different orders, different meanings.
B．How to speak English.

Homework should be done as soon as you get home from school. If you have after-school activities, the homework should be done first. At the same time, it is fine to allow（允許）for a snack break and also to allow for stretching(拉伸的)breaks.
Also, you should remember that it is your duty to do your homework. Next time, when you want to depend on(依靠) Mom and Dad for help, please try to find the answer yourself, because you will learn much, much more that way.
When you have a question, especially something about a science or math, don’t always turn to your teacher! It is a good idea to try to find the answer yourself. If this doesn’t work, you can also look at the materials in the back of the book. They may guide you to the pages you should look at to help you understand the problem.
Finally, while doing homework, don’t think about or do other things. Keep working. Setting a time limit(限制) often helps with this. Different ages decide different amounts of time. 10-15 minutes is good for a child that’s aged 6-8. A time of 20-30 minutes is about right for a child aged 9-12. Kids can keep studying for 30-45 minutes from the ages of 13 to 15. This, of course, depends on your abilities to pay attention and stay on tasks.
小題1:In the first paragraph, the writer mainly tells us that ______.
A．doing homework is the first thing you should do at home
B．a(chǎn)fter-school activities can’t affect doing homework
C．parents can help kids with their homework at night
D．kids need a good rest after school
小題2:In the third paragraph,   the writer wants to tell us that ______.
A．students should ask the teacher more questions
B．thinking over the questions before asking others is important
C．problems can’t be solved without a teacher’s help
D．students shouldn’t always look at the materials in the back of the book
小題3:The passage mainly tells children ______.
A．not to look away while doing homework
B．to do homework by themselves
C．not to turn to teachers when doing homework
D．to do their homework quickly and in the right way’
