江苏省无锡市北塘区2016届九年级上学期英语期中考试试卷
Many people go to school for an education. They learn languages, history, geography, physics, chemistry and mathematics. Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can make a living. School education is very important and useful. Yet no one can learn everything from school; no matter how much the teacher knows, he cannot teach his students everything they want to know. The teacher's job is to show his students how to learn. He teaches them how to read and how to think. So much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves.
It is always more important to study by oneself than to memorize some facts or a formula(公式).
It is actually quite easy to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in mathematics. But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a maths problem. Great scientists, such as Einstein, Newton and Galileo didn't get everything from school. But they were all so successful. They invented so many things for mankind. The reason for their success is that they knew how to study. They read books that were not taught at school. They worked hard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. They would ask many questions at what they read and they did thousands of experiments.
Dear Agony Aunt, I'm a Grade 8 student. I find no matter how hard I study, I always get low marks in math. I have lots of 1 and can't sleep well. What's worse, my elder brother thinks I have a lower IQ(智商) than my classmates. So I always2 him. Sad Betty |
Dear Sad Betty,
Thank you for your letter. I hope my3 can be of some help to you! I know you are in a bad situation, but never doubt(怀疑) 4 ! Please believe you have a 5 IQ like other common students. Since I worked as Agony Aunt ten years ago, I have 6 many students like you. They seem not to make any progress(进步) in 7 although they are very hard-working. So I understand how you are feeling.
Everyone is 8 others and everyone is good at different things. So you shouldn't 9 yourself with others, although I know it will be not easy.
I know you must be very hard-working, but 10 your learning methods (方法)aren't suitable (适合的) for you. If you aren't sure about it, why not 11 your math teacher for help? It's a better way to tell your math teacher about your 12 and your learning methods. I believe he or she would like to help you and 13 you some learning methods that suit you better. You can also study together with your classmates who are good at math. Team study is 14 helpful.
As for your elder brother, you can talk with him in a friendly way. 15 it doesn't work, ask your parents for help.
In a word, the most important thing is not to doubt yourself. I believe you can make it!
Agony Aunt
