黑龙江省双鸭山市第一中学2017-2018学年高一下学期英语期末考试试卷
If you are hungry, what do you do? Grab a piece of your favorite meal and stay quiet after that?But it never lets you know, because you keep it busy thinking about your dream lover or favorite star. So it silently serves your needs and never lets itself grow. When mind loses its freedom to grow, creativity gets a full stop.
Now why reading and not watching TV? Because reading has been the most educative tool used by us right from the childhood. Just like that to develop other aspects of our life, we have to get help from reading.
Once you read a book, you just don't run your eyes through the lines, but even your mind decodes it and explains it to you. Now this is unknowingly used by you in your future to develop new ideas. The same seed if used many times, can help you link and relate a lot of things, of which you would have never thought in your wildest dreams!
This is nothing but creativity. As the number of books you read is increasing, your mind will open up like never before. Within no time you start speaking English or any language fluently with your friends or other people and you never seem to run out of the right words at the right time.
Now what are you waiting for? Go, grab a book, and let me know!
A. Your stomach needs food. Similarly, your mind can feel hungry too.
B. Why not do some reading while you are hungry?
C. A picture is formed in your brain and left there as a seed.
D. So guys do join me and give food for your thoughts by reading, reading and more reading
E. Also this is beneficial to you if you want to enlarge your vocabulary.
F. Reading can help you make more friends, too.
G. It is commonly thought that reading can actually make your hungry mind satisfied.
A. but they are very time-consuming B. all you need is an Internet connection C. when a friend suggested that I try a MOOC D. I chose a six-week Social Psychology course E. it is difficult to find a course to combine with work F. But the advantages of MOOCs for busy people today are obvious G. In fact, that seems to be one of the problems of this new way of studying |
I've always been interested in why we do the things we do, so last year I decided I'd like to study psychology. Most courses I found, however, were either too expensive, too long or were impossible to combine with work. I was about to give up {#blank#}1{#/blank#}.
At first, I had no idea what they were talking about, but they explained that a MOOC is a Massive Open Online Course—a new type of course offered completely online to thousands of people, which is designed so that anyone can follow it, regardless of age, location or education—{#blank#}2{#/blank#}. You can search for hundreds of different subjects, and can usually watch a short introduction video to get an idea of what the course is about.
{#blank#}3{#/blank#}. At first, I didn't know what to expect or how much time I might spend studying. Each week there were video lectures to watch and readings to do as well as some short assignments. The lectures were really interesting and easy to follow, and it was great to be able to watch them again or pause them to go and do something else. Most MOOCs have online forums (论坛), too, where students can discuss what they are learning. These are often really fascinating because there are so many different opinions, {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. If you read everything on the forums, you won't have time to finish the lectures!
{#blank#}5{#/blank#}. There is a huge range of courses on offer in hundreds of subjects, and you have the chance to learn new things and be in contact with many different types of people, all from the comfort of your own home. Why not check out a MOOC and start learning something new today?
