22、Do you want to improve the way you study? Do you feel nervous before a test? Many students say that a lack of concentration is their biggest problem. It seriously affects their ability to study, so do their test results. If so, use these tips to help you.

Study Techniques

 You should always study in the same place. You shouldn’t sit in a position that you use for another purpose. For example, when you sit on a sofa to study, your brain will think it is time to relax. Don’t watch TV while you are studying. Experts warn that your concentration may be reduced by 50 percent if you attempt to study in this way. Always try to have a white wall in front of you, so there is nothing to distract (make less concentrated) you. Before sitting down to study, gather together all the equipment you need. Apart from your textbooks, pens, pencils and knives, make sure you have a dictionary. If your study desk or table is needed when you are not studying, store all your equipment in a box beside it.

 Your eyes will become tired if you try to read a text which is on a flat surface. Position your book at an angle of 30 degrees.

 Be realistic and don’t try to complete too much in one study period. Finish one thing before beginning another. If you need a break, get up and walk around for a few minutes, but try not to telephone a friend or have something to eat.

Test-taking Skills

 All your hard work will be for nothing if you are too nervous to take your test. Getting plenty of rest is very important. This means: do not study all night before your test! It is a better idea to have a long-term study plan. Try to make a timetable for your study which lasts for a few months.

 Exercise is a great way to reduce pressure. Doing some form of exercise every day will also improve your concentration. Eat healthy food, too.

 When you arrive in the examination room, find your seat and sit down. Breathe slowly and deeply. Check the time on the clock during the test, but not too often. Above all, take no notice of everyone else and give the test paper your undivided attention.

【1】Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

A. Check the time during the exam at a certain time.

B. Your concentration will improve if you study and watch TV at the same time.

C. You should study in a different place every day, so you don’t get bored.

D. Staying up all night and studying is tiring, but you will learn a lot using this method.

【2】What does the underlined word “it” refer to?

A. Your textbook.     B. Your study desk or table.

C. Your dictionary.   D. The equipment you need.

【3】 What can be inferred from the passage?

A. You shouldn’t look at everyone else during the test.

B. You’ll concentrate more if there is nothing to distract you.

C. You will have enough energy to deal with your study and exams by eating healthy diet.

D. If you feel tired during study, you can walk around for a few minutes.

23、Four Underwater Cities You Must Visit

Dwarka-India

Dwarka is located 70 feet under the sea near the inhabited island of Bet Dwarka. It was built sometime between 9, 000 and 12, 000 years ago and those fortunate enough to visit can witness a diverse variety of buildings in addition to a seaport and protective walls made of sandstone. Furthermore, large stone anchors indicate that overseas trade took place in Dwarka during the Age of Antiquity all the way through medieval times.

Pavlopetri-Greece

Pavlopetri was founded around 5, 000 years ago, making it one of the oldest underwater lost cities in the world. Since it was rediscovered in 1967, archeologists and tourists alike have been fascinated by the well-preserved handicrafts. What makes Pavlopetri stick out is that it has a nearly-complete town plan, including at least 15 buildings. There is also evidence that it was once a major producer of textiles, with some of the equipment still complete!

Antirhodos-Egypt

This ancient underwater island was rediscovered in 1996 near the Alexandria harbor. In addition to being the site of the Lighthouse of Alexandria, one of the Ancient Wonders of the World that had been presumed(推测)lost forever, explorers can find a marble-floored 3rd century B. C. palace. The best thing is that the island is only a few meters under the water, which makes it easy to explore even for new divers!

Atlit-Yam-Israel

This underwater site was discovered in 1984 off the coast of Atlit near Haifa, and is estimated to have been settled between 6, 900 and 6, 300 B. C. This location offers the clearest evidence of where humans made the transition(过渡)from hunter-gatherers to settled farmers. Dive insurance is required, so make sure you are covered when you plan your trip.

24、   Tim Ma’s parents went to the United States from Taiwan in the 1970s and opened a restaurant, which was not a success. They hoped Ma would become an engineer or doctor out of financial security.

Ma grew up in the state of Arkansas, a challenging place to live in for him. He said, “There was some racism and I came up through a very non-equal environment.”

Ma did well in math and science in high school and ended up choosing to study electrical engineering in college.

Several engineering jobs later, Ma had a change of heart. He wanted to leave the engineering world behind and enter the restaurant business.

His parents could not understand why he left such a good job to open a restaurant, which they had worked long hours for but still failed.

But Ma remained certain. He was going to do things differently from his parents. He was able to learn from their major mistake as restaurant owners—they knew very little about the art of cooking.

So, at age 30, Ma left engineering and returned to school to study cooking. He attended the International Culinary (烹调) Center in New York and received training in French cooking. Ma soon discovered it was similar to engineering and liked it. He said, “Professional cook is consistency, efficiency, cleanliness. Everything has a theory.”

In 2009, Ma opened his first restaurant in Virginia called Maple Avenue and served American cuisine. He cooked, cleaned the ovens (灶, 烤箱), fixed equipment and paid bills for seven days a week.

His long hours of work paid off. Last year he opened his fourth restaurant Kyirisan in Washington, D. C. Ma says, “My success just comes from ‘sheer hard work’.”

“I think in this country you can create your own success just by working hard. Not because you’re smarter, not because you’re more creative than anybody, just by working hard.”

【1】Why did Tim Ma’s parents expect him to be an engineer or doctor?

A.Being an engineer or doctor was the best choice.

B.Ma liked the jobs of engineering.

C.The jobs provided enough for a living.

D.Ma studied well in math and science.

【2】What can we learn about Tim Ma?

A.He learned to cook from his parents. B.He opened a restaurant upon graduation.

C.He owed his success to his creativity. D.He proved promising in his restaurant.

【3】What does the underlined word “sheer” in Paragraph 6 probably mean?

A.Careful. B.Pure.

C.Extreme D.Slight.

【4】What does the author intend to tell us?

A.Engineering promises achievements. B.Creation matters much in business.

C.Americans face challenge of equality. D.Success comes from hard work.
