12.(8分)Each of us has dreams and goals for our future.What makes us study and make progress each day is closely connected with our personal dream and goal.But why do you have dreams and goals,you still end up with nothing?What differs successful people from the dreamers is their persistent(锲而不舍的) action.When you often find some of your lessons very hard
This is the famous formula(公式) for success:Dream>Believe >Achieve
Most people have what they want(Dream) and think they can realize their dreams(Believe).And then they do nothing.They just imagine their dreams can come true.When they get tired waiting and lose a lot
I personally believe that if you really want to achieve your dreams and goals in life,you have to add one thing to your success formula:Dream>Believe>Act >Achieve
For me,act is the most important thing for success and that's to Take Persistent Action(Act).If you say,you can never do anything valuable.However,"I'll try"creates wonders.Let's remember that there will always be challenges in our life.We must face them bravely and solve them.Success is not something that falls down from the sky.Most successful people made their dreams come true because of their persistent action.
Please remember:Persistent action is the bridge that connects our dreams and goals to reality.
(1)What should you do when you find your lessons very hard?
A.Ask people for help.
B.Try and keep trying.
C.Get ready to create wonders.
D.Prepare for a harder one.
(2)Which does the writer add to the famous formula?
A.Act.

C.Achieving Dreams with Persistent Action
D.Separating Successful People from Dreams
13.(8分)As little children,most of us were taught the virtue (美德) of honesty from stories.The well﹣known story of Pinocchio teaches the importance of telling the truth.Every time Pinocchio lies,he loses all his sheep and the trust of his fellow villagers because he tells lies many times.These types of stories show children that "honesty is the best policy." Still,if this is the case,then why do so many people lie?The fact is that people lie for many reasons.
One reason people lie is to minimize(减少) a mistake.While it is true that everyone does something wrong from time to time,some people do not have the courage to admit their mistakes because they are afraid they will be blamed.For example,in fact,they did not do the work at all.These students do not want to get in trouble or seem irresponsible
Another reason for lying has to do with self﹣protection.Parents,particularly those with young children,may teach their children to use this type of "protective" lie in certain situation.What should children do if a stranger calls while the parents are out?Many parents teach their children to explain that their mother and father are too busy to come to the phone at that time.In this situation
People lie for many reasons,both good and bad.Lying to keep the peace or to stay safe can have positive results.However,lying to stay out of trouble can lead to more trouble in the end.Understanding the motives behind the impulse(冲动)
(1)What does the underlined word "this" in paragraph 1 refer to?
A.Honesty is the best policy.
B.The well﹣known story of Pinocchio.
C.Honesty is the most important.
D.The story of the boy who "cried wolf".
(2)How does the writer explain why people tell lies?
A.By asking questions.
B.By giving examples.
C.By showing the results.
D.By listing advantages.
(3)What is the correct structure of the passage? (P1= paragraph 1)
A.
B.
C.
D.
(4)What is the best title for the passage?
A.The Types of Lies.
B.The Habit of Lying.
C.The Truth Behind Lying.
D.The Ways to Lie.

14.(10分)
How to Study For Exams
Taking exams is stressful,but you can make it easier by improving the way you study.Studying for your exams will keep you from feeling unprepared,and it will set you up for success!
(1)
This is easier said than done,but learning how to take good notes will help you once it comes time to study.Write down everything your teacher writes on the board or puts up in slides.Try to record as much of what the teacher says as possible.
(2)
Studying in a dark room is not recommended(推荐).Add lamps at night,or in the daytime(open the window a little,too).People tend to study and focus better in a brighter room with little noise.
(3)
Ask yourself:What is my teacher most likely to ask on the exam?What materials should I focus on to give myself the best chance of knowing what I need to know?This may help you focus on the most important information,rather than getting stuck on things that might not matter as much.
(4)
You need some time to have fun and it is better to study when you are feeling relaxed than to exhaust(筋疲力尽) yourself studying all day!Carefully structure your break and study time.Usually,20﹣30 minutes of study and then a 5﹣minute break is the most effective method.
(5)
If you don't know the answer to the question,do the next one and come back to it at the end.Struggling and concentrating on a question you don't know the answer to can be time consuming(消耗),which makes you lose valuable marks.
A.Take breaks B.Take good notes C.Turn on the light D.Pay attention in class E.Think of your teacher F.Do the questions you know first

You need some time to have fun and it is better to study when you are feeling relaxed than to exhaust(筋疲力尽) yourself studying all day!Carefully structure your break and study time.Usually,20﹣30 minutes of study and then a 5﹣minute break is the most effective method.
