They learn languages, history, politics, 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. A teacher, no matter how much he knows, can not teach his students everything they want to know. The teachers 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 know how to study by oneself than to memorize some facts or a formula. 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 math problem. Great scientists before us didnt get everything from school .Their teachers only showed them the way. Edison did not even finish primary 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 would ask many questions as they read. They did thousands of experiments. They worked hard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. Above all , they knew how to use their brain.()41. People go to school to _. A. learn several subjects B. make a living C. get an education D. to learn a skill()42. According to the passage, the most important thing a teacher should do is_. A. to teach his students everything he knows B.to know everythin C. to teach the students how to thinkD. to teach the students how to study by themselves()43. To work out a math problem ,you need to know _. A. only a certain formulaB. how to memorize some factsC. only some factsD. the method to work it out()44. Why were many scientists so successful? A. They received good education. B. They were very clever.C. They knew how to learn. D. They learned lots of facts and formulas.()45. How did great scientists study? A. They read a lot of books and asked many questions while reading.B. They did thousands of experiments.C. They always worked hard and never wasted time.D. All of the above. B Dear Mrs Smith,I was a student of yours in Grade Six, and I hope you still remember me. Im writing this letter because I want to let you know that the school year with you was important and special to me. It made a big contribution to my life.I know I was very quiet in your class, and you never said much to me. But you did something that made a big difference in my life. You see, all through my first years in schools, I hated to read. Books were just words that had very little to do with me, and I was bored by them. Ill never forget the first day of Grade Six when you took out a thick book and began to read the story to our class. Your voice seemed to change with the people in the story, and you drew pictures in my mind as you read aloud. Since that day, I couldnt wait until after lunch when you would read to the class. You read us all kinds of wonderful books.During the summer after my year in your class, I missed hearing the stories you would read. So one day I picked up a book and read it all on my own. I found out that I could make the words interesting, too. Now, I love to read! Thank you for opening the world of books for me. Yours Linda（ ）46.

How did Mrs. Smith teach reading? _.A. She changed her voice with the people in the story.B. She read aloud, so the students could remember the stories.C. She read all kinds of wonderful books to her students.D. A, B and C. CHappiness is for everyone. You dont need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time.In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice them, you can see that happiness is always around you.Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that cant be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge （挑战）yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor and you have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving (旋转) door. When it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.（ ）51. Happiness is for_.A. those who have large and beautiful houses B. those who have carsC. those who have a lot of money D. all people（ ）52.

Because_.A. money always brings happiness B. money doesnt always bring happinessC. everything can be bought with money D. only rich people have happiness（ ）55. Which is the title of the passage?_.A. Happiness B. Happy and Lucky C. Do Something Good to Others D. life and Success DIn the near future, people in some parts of the world will watch a new kind of television. It is called the high definition television or the HD-TV. The main difference between an HD-TV and a normal television is the picture. It is more clear and detailed. This is because the HD-TV has many more points and lines that make a television image .Every color television picture contains thousands of red, green and blue points. They all come together as an image in the eye of the person watching .The points are organized in lines that go across the television screen. There are more than five hundred lines in a normal television .The HD-TV has two times as many .To get this clear picture, you must have a big screen .Experts say people using a small screen will see little difference.The HD-TV also has clear sound. It is like the sound on a CD. All these improvements make an HD-TV very costly. One kind in Japan now sells for more than twenty thousand dollars .A major problem with the HD-TV is its broadcast signal（传播信号） .The signal is bigger than normal because it carries more electronic information.根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。（ ）56.
