Id had to memorize a paragraph in front of the whole class. I just couldnt do it,” says 13-year-old Mary. “I pretended to be ill.” But Mary did not enjoy her day off. “I watched TV all day it was boring. I wished I had gone to school.”Marys story is not unusual in Britain. According to the latest government figures, pupil absences are rising, despite schools_on truancy (逃学)Philippa James, a PhD researcher at Cardiff Universitys school of social sciences, thinks she knows why: “The more schools improve methods of detection（检查）, the more children work out better methods of deception.” Teenagers told her it was now harder to skip a single lesson, so theyd miss whole days to avoid being caught.For several years, James has researched student truancy of 60 teenagers, aged 13 and 14, including Mary, to see how the teenagers truant, for how long, and why.Through online conversations and face-to-face interviews, she discovered that most truancy was “a response to factors within the school”. Truants are not necessarily less advanced or less intelligent. They complained of teachers who failed to engage them, and of “boring” lessons. “Many truants really enjoy school and believe in education, but drop out when aspects of it were ineffective.” James says.The views of students like Adam, who believes that skipping lessons has little impact on his schooling, were common. “I only take-off for a lesson, or a couple of days. It doesnt affect my education,” he told James.James study concludes that schools need to address the question of why pupils want to leave in the first place. “Pupils need help from the start.” she says. “Its a two-way process schools must be responsive. We need to look at the reasons for truancy rather than the number, so that instead of walking away from school, students have the skills and chances to talk through problems and make a change.”26 . What is one of the reasons for school truancy according to James study?ATruants are fallen behind in their studies.BTruants have no interest in school subjects.CTruants have more interesting things to do.DTruants are not satisfied with the teachers.27 . The underlined phrase “taking a hard line” (paragraph 2) is closest in meaning to“”.Aexperiencing a problem withBhaving a strict attitude towardsCfinding it difficult to solveDhaving little success with28 . By citing Adams remark, James wants to show that.Aschool education is not efficient and needs improvementBits a popular belief that occasional truancy wont cause much harmCschool truancy is becoming more serious and needs more concernDeven good students may sometimes need a break from school29 . What is Philippa James suggestion to schools?ASchools should solve the problem of teachers.BSchools should be more active in helping beginner truants.CSchools should have a better control of hidden truants.DSchools should find out who truant and how they it.From- ToBeijing-ShanghaiBeijing- KunmingShenzhen- ChangshaShanghai- XianTrainD311Z53K9018Z92Price309RMB575RMB296RMB331.5RMBDistance（距离）1,454km3,174km783km1,509kmTime11小时42分钟34小时40分10小时19分14小时34分30 .

In fact, the problem usually isnt with their memory. The problem is with how they study.To remember word better, you need to understand how memory works. There are two kinds of memory: short-term and long-term. When you see, hear or read something. It goes first into short-term memory. But short-term memory lasts for only a few seconds. You will only remember something longer if it goes into long-term memory. Your long-term memory is like a very big library with many, many books. And like a library, its organized. When you put away a book-or memory- you cant just leave it anywhere. You have to choose a place where you can find it again.How can you do this with vocabulary? The answer is to work with the word and think about the word in new ways. You can do this by writing new sentences that include it. Even better, you can invent a little story about the word, with people or places that you know. Another way is to make a picture in your mind with the word. For example, if the word is “height”, you can think of the tallest person you know and try to guess his or her height. All of these activities are good ways to think about words. They make the meaning of words stronger in your long-term memory. And they give a way to find a word when you need it.34 . In the writers opinion, students cant remember words because_.Athey have memory problemsBthey are too worriedCthey dont use a proper wayDthey dont like to study35 . Which is TRUE about memory according to the passage?AShort-term memory is seldom usedBWhat we see goes into long-term memory first.CWe will forget a word soon if it goes into short-term memory.DWe will never forget a word if it goes into long-term memory.36 . The underlined word it in Paragraph 2 refers to_.Aeverything in lifeBsomething youve seen, heard or readCshort-term memoryDlong-term memory37 . This passage mainly tells us about_.Alanguage students problems in studyBhow to make the meaning of words strongerCshort-term and long-term memoryDhow to improve ways to remember wordsThis month in Travelers Corner there are three teenagers experiences in year-abroad programs.Mariko Okada-JapanMy year abroad in the United States was a fantastic experience.

You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessary so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Heres how. Plan your time carefully. When you plan your week, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. then decide a good, regular time for studying. Dont forget to set aside enough time for entertainment. A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time.Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or television! When sitting down to study, pay enough attention to the subject. Make good use of your time in class. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teachers say. Really listening in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes. Review the important points that your teacher mentioned in class. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day,
