I was so 1 that I could hear my stomach growling(咕咕叫)when Mr. Katter was lecturing on Asian history. So when the bell rang, I rushed to the dining hall at once. Minutes later, I stood in front of the counter(收银台), holding a tray(托盘)full of food."Three dollars," the lunch lady told me. I reached my hand into my 2 …and felt nothing. The schoolbag was empty. I searched again. Still nothing. I was almost certain I had put three bills in it last night. I put the schoolbag on the floor to search for the money again. As I finally 3 the money wasn't there, I could feel the worry and fear washingthe lunch lady my 5 , I saw, in the corner of my eye, a boy walk quickly past.

You're good,'' the lunch lady said as she pointed to the direction the boy had gone.I looked in the direction she pointed to, yet I could not find the boy. I missed the chance to 6 him.

"Is that your money?"Jamila looked up from the book she was reading. "Oops. I emptied my pockets before I left for soccer practice yesterday.I was running late, so I didn't have time to take the money up to my room." Jamila's mom handed her the bill and watched as her daughter placed it in her book.Jamila went back to reading. A moment later, she heard her mother give a deep sigh(叹息). "Jamila, you just put that money in your book. I'm quite sure that you won't be able to find it when you need it. You are working so hard to save for a new bicycle. I don't wantyou to lose any of your hard-earned (辛苦挣得的)money. Don't you have apiggybank?"Jamila nodded. "I have one, but the key doesn't work and I can't get the money out. Some of my money is in a jar(罐子)on my desk. Some is in a box on my bed. I might also havesome in other books."Mrs. Johnson smiled at Jamila. "It looks like it's time for you to get your own bank account(账户)," she said. "Do you want to go to the bank with me?"Jamila jumped up. "Will the account be in my own name?" she asked excitedly."Of course," answered her mom. "You might be surprised by how much you have when your money is all in one place. At least you'll know where it all is."At the bank, Jamila and her mother opened a savings account. The banking manager explained how the money in the savings account would earn interest. The longer the money stayed in the account, the more interest it would earn. Jamila was surprised to learn that she could earn money just by keeping her money in a savings account. "I wish I had done this a long time ago." she winked at her mom. "Maybe I'd have already saved enough to buy my bike."(1)Where did Jamila put the money after her mother handed it to her?A.In her pocket.B.In a piggybank.C.In a jar.D.In her book.(2)Mrs. Johnson thought Jamila should have a bank account because .A.it could encourage Jamila to work harder for her new bicycleB.Jamila put money everywhere and might lose some of itC.the money in a savings account could earn interestD.Jamila spent much more than she earned(3)How did Jamila feel when she knew she could earn money by keeping money in the bank?A.Sorry.B.Proud.C.Surprised.D.Confused.16CIf your teacher writes notes on the board, that's a bonus: Y ou can copy them down. If not, write down the most important points from class. For example, does your history teacher mention the date of the Second World War? Or repeat a piece of information? Write it down! It can take time to learn how to listen for the key information, so keep trying and don't give up.If you want to write down every word that's said in class, you'll be mad. So it's necessary to develop your own signs, for example, "pics." for "pictures," or "hw" for "homework." They can help you more quickly take notes. And if you pay too much attention to getting your notes right, you might miss listening to what the teacher is saying. Don't be afraid to ask the teacher to repeat something you miss. If you don't want to ask in class, see your teacher after class.It is easy to miss information while taking notes, so compare your notes with what the textbook says一you can add to your notes as you read. Go over your notes with a friend and compare what the two of you have put down. It will make you two be able to notice mistakes and reinforce what you're learning. It can also help you remember information when it's time for a test.Even if you don't have a test coming up, you'd better look over your notes within 24 hours of taking them. Your brain will start absorbing(吸收)the information while it is still fresh in your mind. Then when you study in the days before a test, you will be able to recall the information much better. Instead of simply reading your notes to yourself, say them aloud. Studies show that speaking aloud helps in memorization. When you speak, try paraphrasing(意译)sometimes rather than reading directly. Paraphrasing and speaking aloud requires your brain to do more work, making it more likely that you will understand what you're studying.Good note-taking takes time. But the time you spend writing and reviewing notes pays off. Not only can this help you do better in a test, it's also a great confidence supporter when you're studying and find yourself saying, "Hey, I remember that!"(1)If a teacher doesn't write notes on the board, students should .A.read the textbook and underline the important pointsB.write down the information repeated by the teacherC.listen carefully without taking notesD.copy a friend's notes in class(2)What can we learn from the passage?A.Writing down words in short helps avoid missing important information.B.Students should try their best to make sure the notes are right in class.C.Reading the notes aloud can help students find out mistakes in notes.D.Students need to spend time practising the skills of taking notes.(3)What's the fifth paragraph mainly about?A.The ways to review notes.B.The skills of correcting notes.C.The methods to perfect notes.D.The necessity of taking notes.17DStudents in western Ohio(俄亥俄州)have to say "bye-bye" to snow days. Snow may fall, but students won't be able to spend the days sledding(滑雪橇). Classes will continue—online. Officials say that holding electronic workdays (e-days) will help students keep up with their studies. It will also prevent requiring students to make up schooldays later in June. Which would you prefer:spending a cold day on a computer, or sitting in school in June when you should be on vacation? Jordan Dewar a student reporter, holds the opinion that having online work on a snow day is the better choice, "You would be working on a day that you already planned on having schoolwork.""Having extra days of school in summer can interfere with(妨碍)families' vacation plans. Besides, what if your school does not have air-conditioning? Imagine sweating through seven hours at school on a hot June day when you could have been relaxing by a pool with your family. Doesn't an e-day sound better than that?" Jordan Dewar said.For some students, it would be easier to concentrate(专注)on e-days than on makeup days. "Y ou can do a little workThere are some students arguing that it's not fair to ditch snow days, however. They say that snow days give them a much-needed break. They also note that missing a day here and there is not enough to put them behind. Most students in Silver Valley School think one problem of e-days is that sometimes siblings(兄弟姐妹们)have to share computers at home. In addition, it punishes the students who don't have computers at home. When school starts again after e-days, these students will be left behind and have to work double-time to catch up."School budget cuts(预算削减)across the country are expected to continue into the 2017-2018 school year," the American Association of School Administrators (AASA) Web site states. "The school wouldn't be able to afford both online classes and taking care of the school," Austin Krewson, an eighth grader, says.Moreover, electricity is likely to be cut off during snowstorms. If kids don't have power at home, the money and the time in running the new program would be wasted.(1)What can we learn from Paragraph 1?A.Officials suggest students should have more schooldays in June.B.Officials believe snow days put students behind in their studies.C.Students have to end snow days earlier than planned.D.Students won't have sledding classes at school.(2)The student reporter, Jordan Dewar, believes that .A.siblings can help each other with their studies on e-days.B.students can learn better on e-days than on makeup daysC.having e-days in winter will save the cost of air-conditioningD.students should study online when it snows heavily on weekdays(3)What does the word "ditch" in Paragraph 5 probably mean?A.Give up.B.Put off.C.Carry out.D.Pay for.(4)The writer mentions the statement on the AASA Web site to .A.explain the reason to hold the e-day programB.show the difficulty of running the e-day programC.suggest government should spend more money on educationD.stress why some students can't afford computers for online classes任务型阅读18The Art of the ElephantsIf your cat walked across something you were painting and left footprints behind, would you consider your cat an artist? What if your bird held a colored pencil in its beak(喙)and painted on a piece of paper? Most people may think of animal art as a joke, but some people have been taking it very seriously.Elephants were used for hundreds of years in Thailand's logging industry(伐木业).
