Taking good notes has three stages（阶段）.There are certain things you should do before class, during class, and after class.

It tells a young boys friendship with a poor and retired(退休的) teacher, Dora, who writes letters in the Ria de Janeiro train station. Illiterate people pay Dora to write and mail the letters, but she decides at home if she will send them or not. Anna, one of Doras clients(客户), dies in front of the station, and leaves her son, Josue, homeless. First, Dora wants to sell Josue to get money, but then she decides to help the boy look for his father in the northeast. The film shows what one side of the country is like. When I was in school, I learned that we had two Brazils and we could be rich and developed like Belgium (比利时) and also poor and undeveloped like India. Central Station shows that Brazil is like India. Sometimes Brazilians dont realize that they really have the problems and they may not think that the film is real. From the film, I learned some of the Brazilian problems: illiteracy, homeless kids, traffic accidents, dirty cities, undeveloped areas, violence (暴力) and so on. But the saddest thing to think about is that a lot of people may have the same feeling that Dora has first. I could also see how beautiful our nature is. We can also find people with hope and happiness although they may be simple and ignorant(无知的).49. The underlined word illiterate means not able to _. A. read or write B. see or hear C. walk or run D. talk or smile50. According to the writer, what is the saddest thing to think about? A. Brazil has a lot of problems. B. Brazil is an undeveloped country. C. A lot of people live a simple life. D. A lot of people may first want to sell the boy to get money.51. From the film Central Station, the writer learns that _. A. people in Brazil are well-behaved B. peoples nature is beautiful C. people in Brazil have no hope D. people in Brazil are rich and happyC Today is the date of that afternoon in April a year ago when I first saw the strange and attractive doll in the window of Abe Sheftels toy shop on Third Avenue near Fifteenth Street. It is just around the corner from my office. The plate（牌子） on the door reads: Dr Samuel Amory. I remember just how it was that day: the first sign of spring floated（飘荡） across the East River, mixing with the soft-coal smoke from the factories and the street smells of the poor neighbourhood. As I turned the corner on my way to work and came to Sheftels, I saw the poor collection of toys in the dusty window, and I remembered the coming birthday of a small niece (侄女) of mine in Cleveland. I was in the habit of sending small gifts to her. So I stopped and examined the window to see if there might be anything suitable, and looked at the collection of unattractive objects - a red toy fire engine, some lead soldiers, cheap baseballs, bottles of ink, pens, yellowed envelopes, and advertisements for soft drinks. And then my eyes finally came to rest upon the doll stored away in one comer, a doll with the strangest, most charming expression on her face. I could not wholly make her out, because of the shadows（阴影） and the dust through which I was looking, but I was sure that I was deeply impressed as though（好像） I had run into a person, as one does sometimes with a stranger, with whose personality one is deeply impressed.52. What impressed the writer when he passed by Shefiels? A. The dolls unusual face. B. The collection of toys. C. A stranger he met at the store. D. The beauty and size of the doll.53. Why does the writer mention his niece? A. Because she likes dolls. B. Because the doll looks like her. C. Because he was looking for a gift for her. D. Because she lives near Sheftels.54. Why did the writer go past Sheftels? A. Because he wanted to buy the doll. B. Because he was looking for a gift for his niece. C. Because he was going to see his niece. D. Because he was on his way to work.55. The story takes place in the_. A. early summer B. early spring C. mid-summer D. late spring .D The other day I came across a few local musicians and happened to hear them talking: I hate all the terrible pianos in this town. I hate that rubbish they play on the radio. They cant even understand a bit of music. Im never playing in that club again. Too many drunks and nobody listens to us. But one younger musician said, There are a few clubs that book my band (乐队) a few nights a month, and Im trying to find other places to play. Im also looking forward to booking a few summer festivals this year. Its said that you are the average (平均) of the five people whom you spend the most time with, or to put it another way, you are who your friends are. Attitudes（态度） are important. Whether theyre positive or negative (消极的), theyre rubbing off on you. If youre always around people who complain about lack（缺乏） of work and about other musicians or blame（责怪） others, and you play the role of a victim, its possible that you will start to as well. So its time to take a look at the people you call friends, as what kind of friends you have decides what kind of life you are going to live. This is an easy exercise: Make a list of the people who you often go out with, and simply stop spending time with the negative people on your list. Set a new standard for yourself and dont become friends with people who fall below that standard. Keep successful people around you and your own chances for success will be much better. Ask them how they do it and learn from them. Ask if they will help you get the work youre looking for, or maybe give you some advice to help you on your career path.56. The musicians words at the beginning are written mainly to show_. A. the musicians live a poor life B. people have poor taste in music C. people have different attitudes towards the same thing D. young people have greater chances of succeeding57.
