It rained for a week. Mary spent the days with Colin in his room, talking about India or gardens or Dickon. He didn’t look ill when she was there but his face was still white and he never moved from the sofa.

Mary was surprised when she looked at her own face in the mirror. She was very different now. Martha noticed, too.

“You aren’t as thin and yellow as before,” she said. “It’s the air of the moor. It’s good for you.”

“If the fresh air is good for me, it must be good for Colin, too.”

On the first morning when the sky was blue again, Mary woke up very early. She opened the window and felt the warm sun on her face.

“I can’t wait!” she said, “ I’m going to see the garden!”

She dressed quickly and went outside. The sun was shining and birds were singing as she ran towards the secret garden.

When she reached the door, she heard a strange sound. It was the “caw-caw” of a crow. She looked up and saw a big blue-black bird sitting on the wall. The next moment he opened his wings and flew away. When she went into the garden he was there, sitting on a small apple-tree. Dickon was there, too. He was digging and pulling up weeds. There was a little red fox club next to him.

“Oh, Dickon!” Mary cried. “I’m so happy!”

Dickon introduced Mary to the fox cub and the crow.

“The fox cub’s name is Captain,” he said, “and this crow is call Soot.”

Dickon walked around the garden with Soot on his shoulder and Captain next to him. Mary followed.

A Journey of Discovery

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain is one of the most famous American novels.

Published in 1884, it was one of the first novels in the USA written in common, everyday language. For example, using non-standard En glish, Twain wrote, ‘I haven’t got no money,’ to mean ‘I do not have any money’. In this way, Twain made his characters very true to life.

The story is told by Huckleberry Finn, called Huck for short, who runs away to escape his abusive father. At first, Huck goes to a small island in the middle of the Mississippi River. There, he finds Jim, a black slave who has run away to escape slavery. The two of them stay on the island for a few weeks and become friends, but they must leave because Huck learns that people are looking for Jim. They decide to travel on a raft on the Mississippi River to reach the Ohio River, which will take them north to a state that does not allow slavery.

During their journey, Huck and Jim visit many places along the river and meet many different people. Unfortunately, most of the people they meet are not good. For instance, Huck and Jim meet a family, the Grangerfords, who have been fighting with another family, the Shepherdsons, for so many years that nobody remembers how the fight began. While Huck stays with the Grangerfords, the fighting starts again, and several members of both families are killed. Later, Huck and Jim meet the King and the Duke, two men who take control of their raft and make money by tricking people. During the confusion following one of these tricks, Huck and Jim escape with their raft.

Although the people Huck and Jim meet are bad, they are also funny. Mark Twain used humour to show readers the problems of American society in the 1800s. More importantly, despite all of the bad things that happen to Huck and Jim, the novel has a happy ending for both of them. Jim gets his freedom because his owner has died and set him free in her will, and Huck learns that his father has died, so he is also safe.

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is an adventurous and humourous story, and it teaches modern readers a

考试知识点技巧大全

一、考试中途应饮葡萄糖水

大脑是记忆的场所，脑中有数亿个神经细胞在不停地进行着繁重的活动,大脑细胞活动需要大量能量。科学研究证实,虽然大脑的重量只占人体重量的2%-3%,但大脑消耗的能量却占食物所产生的总能量的20%,它的能量来源靠葡萄糖氧化过程产生。

据医学文献记载,一个健康的青少年学生30分钟用脑,血糖浓度在120毫克/100毫升,大脑反应快,记忆力强；90分钟用脑，血糖浓度降至80毫克/100毫升，大脑功能尚正常；连续120分钟用脑，血糖浓度降至60毫克/100毫升，大脑反应迟钝，思维能力较差。

我们中考、高考每一科考试时间都在2小时或2小时以上且用脑强度大，这样可引起低血糖并造成大脑疲劳，从而影响大脑的正常发挥，对考试成绩产生重大影响。因此建议考生，在用脑60分钟时，开始补饮25%浓度的葡萄糖水100毫升左右，为一个高效果的考试加油。

二、考场记忆“短路”怎么办呢？

对于考生来说，掌握有效的应试技巧比再做题突击更为有效。

1.草稿纸也要逐题顺序写草稿要整洁，草稿纸使用要便于检查。不要在一大张纸上乱写乱画，东写一些，西写一些。打草稿也要像解题一样，一题一题顺着序号往下写。最好在草稿纸题号前注上符号，以确定检查侧重点。为了便于做完试卷后的复查，草稿纸一般可以折成4-8块的小方格，标注题号以便核查，保留清晰的分析和计算过程。

2.答题要按先易后难顺序不要考虑考试难度与结果，可以先用5分钟熟悉试卷，合理安排考试进度，先易后难，先熟后生，排除干扰。考试中很可能遇到一些没有见过或复习过的难题，不要蒙了。一般中考试卷的题型难度分布基本上是从易到难排列的，或者交替排列。

3.遇到容易试题不能浮躁遇到容易题，审题要细致。圈点关键字词，边审题边画草图，明确解题思路。有些考生一旦遇到容易的题目，便觉得心应手、兴奋异常，往往情绪激动，甚至得意忘形。要避免急于求成、粗枝大叶，防止受熟题答案与解题过程的定式思维影响，避免漏题，错题，丢掉不该丢的分。

4. 答题不要犹豫不决选择题做出选择时要慎重，要关注题干中的否定用词，对比筛选四个选项的差异和联系，特别注意保留计算型选择题的解答过程。当试题出现几种疑惑不决的答案时，考生一定要有主见，有自信心，即使不能确定答案，也不能长时间犹豫，浪费时间，最终也应把认为正确程度最高的答案写到试卷上，不要在答案处留白或开天窗。

5.试卷检查要细心有序应答要准确。一般答题时，语言表达要尽量简明扼要，填涂答题纸绝不能错位。答完试题，如果时间允许，一般都要进行试卷答题的复查。复查要谨慎，可以利用逆向思维，反向推理论证，联系生活实际，评估结果的合理性，选择特殊取值，多次归纳总结。

另外，对不同题型可采用不同的检查方法。选择题可采用例证法，举出一两例来能分别证明其他选项不对便可安心。对填空题，则一要检查审题;二要检查思路是否完整;三要检查数据代入是否正确;四要检查计算过程;五要看答案是否合题意;

六要检查步骤是否齐全，符号是否规范。还要复查一些客观题的答案有无遗漏，答案错位填涂，并复核你心存疑虑的项目。若没有充分的理由，一般不要改变你依据第一感觉做出的选择。

6、万一记忆短路可慢呼吸考试中，有些考生因为怯场，导致无法集中精神，甚至大脑忽然一片空白，发生记忆堵塞。此时不要紧张，不妨尝试如下方式：

首先是稳定心态，保持镇静，并注意调节自己的呼吸率。先慢吸气，当对自己说放松时缓慢呼气，再考虑你正在努力回忆的问题，如果你仍不能回想起来，就暂时搁下这道题，开始选做其他会的试题，过段时间再回过头来做这道题。

第二，积极联想。你不妨回忆老师在讲课时的情景或自己的复习笔记，并努力回忆与发生记忆堵塞问题有关的论据和概念，把回忆起的内容迅速记下来，然后，看能否从中挑出一些有用的材料或线索。

第三，进行一分钟自我暗示。即根据自己的实际，选择能激励自己，使自己能心情平静和增强信心的话，在心中默念3至5遍。比如：我已平静下来，我能够考好、我有信心，一定能考出理想的成绩等等。

第四，分析内容，查找相关要点。借助试卷上其它试题，也许会给考生提供某些线索。因此不要轻易放弃，查看试题中的相关要点，看看是否能给考生提供线索或启发。
