(6分) All students need to have good habits(好习惯): When you have good study habits, you learn things quickly. You also remember them easily.Do you like to study in the living room? This is not a good place because it is usually too noisy. The telephone bell rings there; the TV is there, and sometimes it is a good place for your pet dog or cats to play and rest. You need to study in a quiet place, like your bedroom. A quiet place will help you only think about one thing, and you will learn better.Before you begin to study, do not forget to clean your desk. A good desk light is important, too. You’ll feel tired easily if there is not enough light(光线). So you should have a clean and bright lamp. To tell you the truth, the most important is that you should put your heart into your study.(1)When you have good study habits, you will _______.A . learn things quicklyB . remember things easilyC . make some mistakesD . both A and B(2)The living-room is not a good place for study because it is too_____ .A . quietB . noisyC . goodD . clean(3)You'll feel tired easily if the light is .A . goodB . enoughC . badD . wonderful(4)You should remember to _______ before you study.A . clean the deskB . tidy the roomC . turn off the lightD . go to the bedroom(5)The best title(标题)for this passage(文章)is __________.A .

These reading groups were named after animals. The high-achieving readers were known as the birds, and the kids with the most difficulty were the mice.I was a bird, and my best friend Bobby was a mouse. I can still remember how uncomfortable it was to hear Bobby read sentences out and he could only read several words in the sentence.This is how we usually think of a reading "problem"—the inability to decode symbols(解码) and change them into spoken language. Kids with this problem are hard to miss. But there may be many other kids in the classroom who are also poor readers, but in a very different way that's often invisible. These kids read correctly and fluently from the page —they might even be birds —but they don't understand most words from their mouths.Charles Hulme and his team of York University have been exploring this hidden reading problem, and they've come to believe that it may be at its heart a spoken language problem.In one study, they found 8 and 9-year-old children who had reading comprehension(理解) problems. Then, some got help in reading and understanding written text, and others got only help with spoken language and still others got a mix of both. They all got 90 minutes of help every week for 20 weeks, after which their skills were tested. They were also tested again almost a year later, to see if any improvements existed.All three groups showed improvements in comprehension soon after the training, but those trained only in spoken language showed great improvements into the following year—much more than the others. What's more, the improvements from the spoken language training and the less improvements from a combined (融合的) way appeared to come from improvements in vocabulary. In other words, the spoken language training seems to have resulted in a generalized improvement in the kids' ability to understand language.Reading comprehension is important for success in life, more than ever in history. Reading difficulties create educational difficulties, which in turn lead to social and economic disadvantage, including joblessness. Kids won't be asked to read out loud in the real world, but they will be expected to know what they've read.(1)__________ are called "mice" in the writer's class.A . Students who like animalsB .
