To get the most from all you do, you must be in control of your time. Your success in high school depends on your use of time. Here are some important things to remember.* Begin each term by filling in a master plan. First fill in things you must do (classes, work, practice, etc. That you cant change). Then find the most effective use for these times.* Set a regular time and place for study. This will save you time in the long run. If you have a study hall in your school, use it！* Use daylight hours to study whenever possible. For most people for every hour of study done in daylight hours, it will take them one and a half hours to do the same task at night.*Take breaks. Dont plan marathon study time. Have a short rest before you study again.*By using flash cards or summary sheets, you can use odd times to study-while youre waiting for class to start or for a friend to pick you up.* If possible, plan study time with a partner. Choose your partner wisely however. Make sure you study, not socialize yourself.* Do the most difficult tasks when you are active. (Take math for example: when youre energetic, it will become easier to solve; when youre tired, it will be impossible ! )*Make a daily checklist. Do the most important tasks first.61.

Its here, its growing and its having an influence on our life. Surf the Internet and youll find blogs everywhere. A blog, shortened from “weblog”, is a public Internet journal written by one person or a group of people. It is a website in which a person or a group can place news, personal thoughts, text, photos, video or audio files, or links upon which visitors can comment. A blog lets you post on the Internet without having to know web design or be technical. You are given an environment to make dated entries on the topic of your choice which are “published”, so other people can read them.Authoring a blog, maintaining a blog or adding an article to an existing blog is called “blogging”. Blogging has revolutionized Internet publishing in the last several years because it gives everyone with Internet access the opportunity to become an online writer. Objects, such as “text and photos” in a blog can be called “blog posts”, “posts”, or “entries”. The person who posts these entries is called a “blogger”.Now, somewhere around the world, a blog is created almost every 6 seconds.

According to the passage, the reason why blogs are so popular is that they _.A. give everyone the chance to be an online writerB. can be created by people without much knowledge of computer technologyC. enable a blogger to place news, personal thoughts, text and photos and give commentsD. all of the aboveCAsk a teacher to name the most annoying invention of recent years and they will often mention the mobile phoneDisturbed by the problems they create, many head teachers have ordered that pupils should keep their phones switched off at schoolOthers have told pupils to leave them at homeHowever, education researchers at The University of Nottingham believe it is time that phone bans were reassessed, because mobile phones can be a powerful learning aid, they sayDr Elizabeth Hartnell-Young and her colleagues have reached this conclusion after studying the consequences of allowing pupils in five secondary schools to use either their own mobile phones or the new generation of smartphones in lessonsDuring the nine-month experiment, 14- to 16-year-old pupils used the phones for a wide range of educational purposes, including creating short movies, setting homework reminders, recording a teacher reading a poem, and timing experiments with the phones stopwatchesThe smartphones, which could be connected to the Internet, also allowed pupils to access revision websites, log into the school email system, or transfer （转存） electronic files between school and homeThe research involved 331 pupils in schools in Cambridgeshire, West Berkshire and Nottingham“At the start of the study, even pupils were often surprised at the thought that mobile phones could be used for learning,” Dr Hartnell-Young said“After their hands-on experience, almost all pupils said they had enjoyed the project and felt more inspired”Some teachers found that pupils who lacked confidence gained most from the projectHowever, they recognised that greater use of mobile phones in schools could cause problems71. We can infer from the first paragraph that A. teachers are strongly against students owning mobile phonesB. mobile phones should be developed to meet students needsC. students are free to use their mobile phones at schoolD. mobile phones are usually forbidden to be used at school72. When the students first used mobile phones for learning, they A. all enjoyed the project very muchB. didnt know what they were used forC. didnt fully realize the learning functions of mobile phonesD. were surprised that they were allowed to use mobile phones in schools73. Who benefited most from the project?A. Older pupilsB. Pupils who were not confidentC. Younger pupilsD. Pupils who were confident74. The purpose of the text is to tell us that A. mobile phones can actually help students learnB. mobile phones begin to be widely used in schoolsC. too much use of mobile phones in schools can cause problemsD. the mobile phone is considered the most annoying invention of recent yearsDMy primary education was done through online education，which meant I didnt often come into contact with large groups of people of my age. Not having a peer group of my age also meant that I never had to do things to behave in the same way as others，and I grew up doing things the way I wanted.I was very naive(天真的) when I started high school. On the first day I didnt realize there was a right way to wear a school hat. In fact，on that first day I did a lot of things wronglike being the only person in the school who had a tongue ring. That ring made me considered a troublemaker，and by the first break I was given life membership to the “out” crowd. So I put my hair into my hat and took out the tongue ring.It seemed more important to be like others than finding out what it meant to be me. I spent all my energy trying to conform. I couldnt work out why I was so unhappy when Id achieved what I thought I wanted.After many tears and sleepless nights，my teacher took me aside and asked why I was upset. I told him though I tried to fit in at school，I still felt unhappy. He asked me why I cut my hair off，and I told him that I wanted the same kind of hairstyle that the other girls had.He said，“Youve started doing things to please other people. If you dont do it for yourself，you will always feel upset. If the people at school dont like you for who you are，then its their problem.” What he said was true. I started trying to do things for myself. After that I felt a lot better.75.
