阅读理解

    Since this fall, more than 20,000 primary students in one Florida school district in the United States have enjoyed school life without the usual homework. Instead, they are being asked to read for 20 minutes each night, reported USA Today.

    The district has carried out a "no homework" policy (政策). Heidi Maier, the leader of the public schools, said in an interview that she made the decision based on research. Homework does not help students get good grades in primary school.

    Maier is not alone. Around the US, many primary schools are trying out a no-homework policy, which has caused debate (争议) among educators and parents.

    Some support Maier, saying without homework, kids can have more quality time with family and playing sports. But some argue that homework is needed to memorize the information and help kids build daily routines (作息规律), according to TIME for Kids.

    In fact, arguments over homework have been going on for over a century in the US, noted the Washington Post. "This is part of a long history of conflict (冲突) over homework," Paula Fass, a professor at the University of California, told TIME for Kids. "And that can be expected to continue."

(1)、According to the report by USA today, students need to _______ every night.
A、do their homework B、enjoy school life C、read for 20 minutes D、watch TV for 20 minutes
(2)、Which of the following is Heidi Maier's opinion?
A、It is important for primary students to do homework. B、Doing homework is unhelpful for students to get good grades. C、Primary students are asked to read more than 20minutes each night. D、Homework helps primary students get good grades.
(3)、Which of the following is TRUE?
A、More than 20,000 students in Florida school district enjoy their school life with no homework. B、All educators and parents agree with the policy. C、Arguments over homework have been continuing for less than 100 years in the US. D、The conflict over homework is still expected to go on.
(4)、What's the best title?
A、An argument among educators and parents. B、No homework policy C、Primary students have no homework. D、Different opinions on homework.
举一反三

Five Tips for Learning Language

Although learning a foreign language can be difficult, the following tips will increase your ability to succeed in language learning. 

{#blank#}1{#/blank#}

Accept the fact that you will not understand everything. Not understanding and making

mistakes are a very natural part of the language learning process. In fact, at the very beginning, you will not understand much at all. Don't expect too much. 

{#blank#}2{#/blank#}

Research shows that language students learn better when they study more often. And they also learn better for shorter periods of time. Try to study each day, and whenever possible, several times a day. 

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}

The process of using language from your mind to your mouth is a skill that requires a great deal of practice. So say vocabulary words out loud, read passages in the text aloud, do pronunciation activities aloud and not just silently. 

{#blank#}4{#/blank#}

Work together on homework assignments(任务), to learn vocabulary, to study for tests, or just to practice speaking the language. Communication does not only happen between the teacher and students, but more among you and your classmates. 

{#blank#}5{#/blank#}

There is no" best" way to learn a language, because everyone learns a bit differently. Find your own personal advantages and let them help you in your learning process. It is more important for you to learn to think in the language than to know the meaning of every word. 

A. Set possible expectations. 

B. Work with study groups.  

C. Practice language actively. 

D. Divide study time into smaller parts.  

E. Be patient to work with classmates.   

F. Find your own way in language learning. 

阅读下面短文, 从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Rita was tired from basketball practice, and she had to study for the next day's math test. Instead of either sleeping or studying, however, she was babysitting. And it wasn't 1 !

 Molly 2 to wash her face or her hands before bed, but her mother had said that doing so was a 3 . Rita was bigger and stronger than the little girl and could 4 her, and she wanted to do so. What choice did she have? Surely she shouldn't just 5 and let the child go to bed unwashed. But she knew there 6 be a better way to do her job. Then she got an idea.

 Rita went into the 7 to get what she needed. Then she chased Molly around the living room and dining room until she caught her and could carry her into the bathroom. Molly looked at the sink full of water and started shouting and 8 at the bathroom door.

" Have you ever washed your face and hands with purple water?" Rita asked. She added blue and red food coloring into the water." If you put your hands in the sink, the water will9 purple."

 Molly opened her mouth to shout, then closed it and looked at the swirls(旋涡) of color. Finally, she couldn't 10 and put her hands into the swirls of color, turning the water purple. She was 11 that her hands did not 12 the same shade(色度), but Rita had not been foolish enough to add enough coloring for that result.

" Can I wash my face now, too?" asked Molly when her hands were 13 clean.

 " Sure," said Rita." But wouldn't you rather do that with orange water?"

 Ten minutes later, a tired but clean little girl was sound 14 and a tired but relieved babysitter was opening her 15 book.

Question: How can I remember new words?

I'm learning English. It's difficult for me to remember new words. Could you help me with that?

Best answer: Here are two ways to help you.

☆Vocabulary Book

 Vocabulary Book is a kind of notebook. In the book, you can write down the new words you want to learn. Next to the word, write down its part of speech (n./ v./ adj./ adv./ …) and its English meaning. Try to understand the new word in English, not in your mother language. You can also write down the synonym of the new word to better understand or remember it. For example, the word great is a synonym of the word excellent.

 Word Map

 Word Map is a useful way to connect your vocabulary together. In this way, you can remember more words for a longer time. There are different kinds of word maps, such as:

 Thank you. I find the ways are useful.

 阅读下列短文,从下面每题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

The Feyman Technique(费曼学习法) was developed by Nobel Prize-winning physicist(物理学家)Richard Feynman. It's a study method that helps students learn by teaching others. 

The Feyman Technique has been one of the most effective study methods for many years. For one thing, it helps students really understand something instead of just memorizing information. Plus, unlike traditional study methods like re-reading textbooks or reviewing notes, it pushes students to be more actively involved(参与) in the learning process. 

If you want to use the Feynman Technique to study better, follow these steps. To begin with, choose a topic you want to learn, including sub-topics(子主题). If not, you'll end up jumping between topics without developing a deeper understanding of any of them. 

The second step is the heart of the Feynman Technique: explaining the topic simply enough to be understood by a sixth-grade student. This requires you to help the child understand by using the simplest and clearest language. This step helps divide indigestible topics into their most basic parts. 

Next, review your explanation and try to find any area where you felt that you couldn't explain the topic simply. When possible, it can be very helpful to get advice from someone whose understanding is similar to that of a sixth-grader. 

The fourth step is to improve your explanation using the information collected from the third step. Finally, repeat the steps. The Feynman Technique works best with repetition, and that is why going through all the prior(先前的)steps just once is usually not enough to fully understand the topic. 

Once you're confident you've learned the topic, it's time to give yourself-a prize. Perhaps, like me, enjoy a nice cup of coffee.
