【題目】Many people go to school for an education. They learn languages, history, geography, physics, chemistry and mathematics. Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can make a living. School education is very important and useful. Yet no one can learn everything they want to know. The teacher’s job is to show his students how to learn. He teaches them how to read and how to think. So, much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves.

It is always more important to know how to study by oneself than to memorize some facts or a formula (公式). It is usually quite easy to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in mathematics. But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a maths problem. Great scientists, such as Einstein, Newton and Galileo didn’t get anything from school. But they were all so successful. They invented so many things for mankind.

The reason for their success is that they knew how to study. They read books that were not taught at school. They worked hard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. They would ask many questions as they read and they did thousands of experiments.

Above all, they knew how to use their brains.

【題目】For those who study the development of intelligence(智力)in the animal world, self-awareness is an important measurement. An animal that is aware(意識)of itself has a high level of intelligence.

Awareness can be tested by studying whether the animal recognizes itself in the mirror, that is, its own reflected image(反射出的影像).Many animals fail this exercise bitterly, paying very little attention to the reflected image. Only humans, and some intelligent animals like apes and dolphins, have shown to recognize that the image in the mirror is of themselves.

Now another animal has joined the club. In the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers report that an Asian elephant has passed the mirror self-reflection test.

“We thought that elephants were the next important animal,” said Dinana Reiss of the Wildlife Conservation Society, an author of the study with Joshua M.Plotnik and Fans B.M. de Waal of Emory University. With their large brains, Reiss said, elephants “seemed like cousins to apes and dolphins.”

The researchers tested Happy, Maxine and Patty, three elephants at the Bronx Zoo.They put an 8-foot-square mirror on a wall of the animals’ play area (out of the sight of zoo visitors) and recorded what happened with cameras, including one built in the mirror.

The elephants used their long noses to find what was behind it, and to examine parts of their bodies.

Of the three, Happy then passed the test, in which a clear mark was painted on one side of her face. She could tell the mark was there by looking in the mirror, and she used the mirror to touch the mark with her long nose.

Diana Reiss said, "We knew elephants were intelligent, but now we can talk about their intelligence in a better way."

1What can mirror tests tell us about animals?

A. Whether they have self-awareness.

B. Whether they have large brains.

C. Whether they enjoy outdoor exercises.

D. Whether they enjoy playing with mirrors.

2Why does the author mention apes and dolphins in the text?

A. They are most familiar to readers.

B. They are big favorites with zoo visitors.

C. They are already known to be intelligent.

D. They are included in the study by Reiss.

3What made Happy different from Maxine and Patty?

A. She used her nose to search behind the mirror.

B. She painted a mark on her own face.

C. She recognized her own image in the mirror.

D. She found the hidden camera.

【題目】Money Matters

Parents should help their children understand money. 1So you may start talking about money when your child shows an interest in buying things, candy or toys, for example.

If he wants to have a toy,give him the money and let him hand the money to the cashier(收銀員).2When your child grows a bit older and understands the basic function of money,you can start explaining more complex ways of using money.

2.Money lessons

Approach money lessons with openness and honesty.3 If you must say no to a child's request to spend money,explain,“You have enough toy trucks for now.” Or,if the request is for many different things,say,“You have to make a choice between this toy and that toy.”

3.4

Begin at the grocery store. Pick out two similar brands(品牌) of a product—a name-brand butter and a generic(一般的),for example. You can show your child how to make choices between different brands of a product so that you can save money. 5 If he chooses the cheaper brand,allow him to make another purchase(購買) with the money saved. Later,you may explain how the more expensive choice leaves less money for other purchases.

A. Talk about how the money bought the thing after you leave the toy store.

B. Wise decisions

【題目】I have an interest in photography and follow many photography Instagram accounts. Just like me, a friend of mine has a similar interest. The only difference is that he is a traveller and has taken hundreds of beautiful photos. He is really talented.

Having returned from one trip, he shared some of his latest photos. Blown away by the images, I asked him why he hadn’t started his own Instagram account of shots.

“It’s hard to start when there are already so many other websites devoted to travel photography with thousands of followers”, he explained. “What if I don’t get any followers or what if people don’t like my shots?”

“Yet how will you ever know if you don’t try?” I asked.

He just shrugged and quickly changed the subject. I knew this feeling well. The feeling of self-doubt.

That was when I was ten years old. I participated in a guitar competition. My grandfather helped me write a short speech to address the crowd and judges. But as the competition began, doubt consumed me and questions flooded my head. I thought to myself, “If I do say the speech, will the other girls laugh at me? Will the judges think I’m being silly for doing my own talk?”

Then with a shake in my voice I said, “My name is Heidi Ceci. I live in St. Catharines and I play the guitar.” Nothing more... and nothing less.

But the next girl walked up to the microphone and actually said a speech. I just stared at her in complete disbelief. No one seemed to be judging her for doing something different. In fact, they applauded louder for her than any other girl.

From then on, I never let fear and doubt rule my decisions. Whatever happens, I always take chances and have a try.

1What stops the author’s friend starting his Instagram account of shots?

A. Having no time. B. Lacking money.

C. No desire to share. D. Doubt about himself.

2Why did the author fail to say the prepared speech?

A. She was not allowed to say.

B. She was afraid of being laughed at.

C. She forgot the content of the speech.

D. She thought the speech was not good enough.

3How did the author feel when she heard another girl’s self-introduction?

A. Surprised. B. Angry.

C. Excited. D. Curious.

4What lesson can we learn from the text?

A. No one is perfect. B. It’s no use regretting.

C. Every one of us needs encouraging. D. It is important to being confident.

The host will provide accommodation and meals. Rooms will be cleaned and bedcovers changed at least once a week. You will be given the house key and the host is there to offer help and advice as well as to take an interest in your physical and mental health.
Accommodation Zones
Homestays are located in London mainly in Zones 2, 3 and 4 of the transport system. Most hosts do not live in the town centre as much of central London is commercial and not residential(居住的).
