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（公式）. It is actually quite easy to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in math. 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 didnt 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.（1）People go to school to _.A . learn several subjectsB . make a livingC . get an educationD . learn from teachers（2）According to the passage, the most important thing a teacher should do is _.A . to teacher his students everything he knowsB . to teach the students how to thinkC . to know everything they want to knowD . to teach the students how to work out a math problem（3）To work out a math problem, you need to know _.A . only a certain formulaB . a certain factC . some factsD . the way to solve it（4）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.（5）How did great scientists study?A . They read a lot of books and asked many questions while reading.B . They did thousands of experimentsC . They always worked hard and never wasted time.D . All of the above.四、 阅读短文。 (共1题；共5分)16. （5分）根据方框里的选项完成短文填空。This morning, Alice lost her pencil box. She _, but she cant find it. Alice _. Ms. Miller is in the office.

It has made people all over China become interested in writing Chinese characters(汉字).The increasing use of computers and smart phones has left most young people hardly able to write by hand. Many of them are even unable to remember the 10,000 characters used in daily life without electronic help.CCTV started the Chinese Character Dictation Competition to improve the populations handwriting skills.
