Good note-taking. Your can’t possibly set down everything the teacher says sin talk at a pace of about 225 words per minute. But, you do need to set down the important materials. Note-taking should bee in a way that’s the most helpful to you. You can try writing notes on different colored cards. If you really have a problem with note-taking, you might ask your teacher if you can record daily lessons. Do whatever it takes.

Review of daily notes. Don't wait until the night before the test to review your notes. Go over your notes each day while the lecture is still fresh in your mind.

22、“Did you hear what happened to Adam Last Friday?” Lindsey whispers to Tori.

With her eyes shining, Tori brags, “You bet I did, Sean told me two days ago.”

Who are Lindsey and Tori talking about? It just happened to be yours truly, Adam Freedman. I can tell you that what they are saying is not nice and not even true. Still, Lindsey and Tori aren’t very different from most students here at Linton High School, including me. Many of our conversations are gossip (闲话). I have noticed three effects of gossip: it can hurt people, it can give gossipers a strange kind of satisfaction, and it can cause social pressures in a group.

An important negative effect of gossip is that it can hurt the person being talked about. Usually, gossip spreads information about a topic — breakups, trouble at home, even dropping out — at a person would rather keep secret. The more embarrassing or shameful the secret is, the juicier the gossip it makes. Probably the worst type of gossip is the absolute lie. People often think of gossipers as harmless, but cruel lies can cause pain.

If we know that gossip can be harmful, then why do so many of us do it? The answer lies in another effect of gossip: the satisfaction it gives us. Sharing the latest rumor (传言) can make a person feel important because he or she knows something that others don’t. Similarly, hearing the latest rumor can make a person feel like part of the “in group.” In other words, gossip is satisfying because it gives people a sense of belonging or even superiority (优越).

Gossip also can have a third effect: it strengthens unwritten, unspoken rules about how people should act. Professor David Wilson explains that gossip is important in policing behaviors in a group. Translated into high school terms, this means that if everybody you hang around with is laughing at what John wore or what Jane said, then you can bet that wearing or saying something similar will get you the same kind of negative attention. The do’s and don’ts conveyed through gossip will never show up in any student handbook.

The effects of gossip vary depending on the situation. The next time you feel the urge to spread the latest news, think about why you want to gossip and what effects your “juicy story” might have.

【1】The author uses a conversation at the beginning of the passage to ________.

A．clarify his writing purpose

B．present an argument

C．describe the characters

D．introduce a topic

【2】An important negative effects of gossip is that it ________.

A．causes unpleasant experiences

B．embarrasses the listener

C．spreads information around

D．breaks op relationships

【3】In the author’s opinion, many people like to gossip because it ________.

A．help them to make more friends

B．gives them a feeling of pleasure

C．makes them better at telling stories

D．enables them to meet important people

【4】Professor David Wilson thinks that gossip can ________.

A．help people watch their own behaviors

B．provide students with written rules

C．force school to improve student handbooks

D．attract the police’s attention to group behaviors

【5】What advice does the author give in the passage 7?

A．Never become a gossiper.

B．Think twice before you gossip.

C．Don’t let gossip tum into lies.

D．Stay away from gossipers.

23、   According to experts, much of our communication is non-verbal. Every day we respond to thousands of non-verbal signals and behaviors. Here are several common types of non-verbal signals and behaviors.

Facial expressions are responsible for a huge part of non-verbal communication. The look on a person's face is often the first thing we see, even before we hear what they have to say. 【1】But the facial expressions for happiness, sadness, anger and fear are similar throughout the world.

【2】 And such things as looking, staring and blinking are important non-verbal behaviors. When people come across people or things that they like, the rate of blinking increases. Looking at another person can indicate a range of emotions, such as interest and attraction.

【3】 Normal, steady eye contact is often taken as a sign that a person are telling the truth. Shifty eyes and inability to maintain eye contact, on the other hand, are frequently seen as an indicator that someone is lying.

Our choices of color and other factors affecting appearance are also considered a means of non-verbal communication. 【4】 Appearance can also alter physiological (生理的) reactions and judgments. Just think of all the subtle judgments you quickly make about someone based on his or her appearance. These first impressions are important. 【5】

A．Eyes play an important role in non-verbal communication.

B．Culture has an important influence on how appearances are judged.

C．People also use eye contact as a way to determine if someone is being honest.

D．It plays an important role in how we interpret the actions of those around us.

E．Non-verbal communication and behavior can vary dramatically between cultures.

F．And that's why experts advise job seekers to dress appropriately for interviews.

G．Research on color psychology shows that different colors can lead to different moods.

24、The City of Light draws millions of visitors every year with its unforgettable atmosphere.

Why Go to Paris

The delicious cuisine and vast art collections deserve some of the credit as well. The gentle River Seine meanders through the city, flanked (两侧是) by stately museums and centuries-old churches.

Paris is also a city of “many splendors,” as Ernest Hemingway recalled in his biography, “A Moveable Feast.” Visit the beloved Muse ed’Orsay, shop the biggest designers on the Champs Élysées or take in the view a top the Eifel Tower.

Best Months to Visit

The best time to visit Paris is from June to August and September to October. Both summer and fall have its ups and downs. From June to August the weather in Paris is just about perfect. Unfortunately, summer is also the most crowded time and the most expensive. For lower travel rates and significantly shorter lines at attractions, plan a visit in the fall.

What to Eat

Similar to many other international cities, Paris offers a number of restaurants that serve up everything from Asian dishes to nouveaux bistro fare. And because France invented a widely adopted style of cooking, the food in Paris is good.

How to Save Money in Paris

Being here on the first Sunday of the month maybe tricky to plan, but you’ll avoid admission fees to the Louvre (罗浮宫), parts of arts centre as well as Versailles (凡尔赛) during certain months.

Walk Paris is big and shouldn’t be crossed entirely on foot, however, a number of top attractions are within a mile of one another (such as the Musée, d’Orsay, Louvre etc). If you map out ahead of time how far each attraction is from one another, you’ll likely save some subway money.

【1】What did Hemingway describe Paris as?

A．The capital of art.

B．A city of romance.

C．The city of light.

D．A moveable feast.

【2】When does Paris have the largest number of visitors?

A．In spring.

B．In summer.

C．In fall.

D．In winter.

【3】How can you save money when travelling in Paris according to the passage?

A．By purchasing discounted airline tickets.

B．By avoiding admission fees during vacation.

C．By going across the City of Light entirely on foot.

D．By finding out the distance among attractions in advance.

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写词数应为150左右。

I have been good at art since I was a kid. When I created my social media account, I got a nice platform to express and showcase my art. Then an idea came to my mind—why not earn money through something I really enjoy doing? So I set up an online art shop and displayed my paintings. In the beginning, I really wanted it to work, but I didn’t really have a belief that people would buy my art. I wanted it to happen but it just seemed impossible. I was just posting my art in my shop. Soon I thought it was not happening and that it wouldn’t happen. I just dropped my idea.

One night before sleeping, I was just wondering how it would actually feel to be receiving mail on my shop e-mail address with someone telling me that he wanted to buy a painting. It would just feel so good because it really meant something to me. It was not just about making money, but it was about me and my art receiving love from people across the world.

Two days later, I happened to check the messages from my online shop. And trust me; I had never, ever checked it before. OMG! There was a message from a fellow asking me about one of my paintings. He was asking whether it was still available. I just got so many butterflies in my stomach! Because that message was sent the day before, I didn’t know whether he’d be still interested. I messaged him and he immediately responded and sent me the money! But the story didn’t end there!

It was my first time that I had shipped my product and it turned out that this guy was from a different state so the courier people (快递员)told me that it would go by air. The charge for the courier was twice more than the cost of my painting. So at the courier’s office, my heart sank. I doubted whether there would be anyone who paid a courier charge that was higher than the price of the product. I believed I had already known his answer, but I still decided to ask him if it was okay with him.

After a moment I received his reply.
