8、n 9th grade when my mathematics teacher asked me to take a class for a few students to whom the subject seemed difficult. And believe me, I enjoyed the entire teaching session. I never knew teaching would be so interesting. I loved my freshmen and was delighted to teach my so-called students who cam
9、e up with lots of good questions.After my post-graduation, I worked as a software developer with a public sector(部门) in Bangalore for a few years. But I realized that no job could provide me with the satisfaction that I experienced while teaching and training. I always wanted to connect with a wider
10、 group of people. In fact, I felt it was a timely realization for me to choose the teaching profession. I applied to a few colleges, and finally I was chosen as a lecturer, and I had to lecture graduate and post-graduate students in a college.On the first day, I was nervous thinking that I had to te
11、ach the senior classes. But now I can say that giving lectures was one of the best experiences of my life. I was a Computer Science and Information Technology lecturer, but I tried to help my students with subjects that were not within my domain(范围). It was a new feeling to me every morning before I
12、 went to the classes. I used to feel energized and excited thinking that the class would be lit up with bright faces to greet me, “Good morning, Madam.”To me each day was a new beginning, with new feelings, new experiences and new queries(疑问). I loved to explore their young minds and read their inqu
13、isitive faces when a particular topic seemed tough. It was extremely challenging to motivate them to participate, think critically, question and also respect others points of view.

17、ess that promotes proper body functioning and can improve the quality of your life. Not only is the quantity of sleep important, but also the quality of sleep.Your bedroom should be shaped to your taste and allow you to sleep in a peaceful environment. One of the biggest mistakes people make in thei
18、r sleep is to use the bedroom for activities other than sleep. If your bedroom also functions as a command station for your life and work, the possibility of your sleep being poor is rather high. Bedrooms should be designed, decorated and used for sleep only. TVs, computers and other things should n
19、ot be in your bedroom if possible.Establishing regular sleeping and waking times can help improve the quality of your sleep especially for those suffering from sleeplessness. Avoid hot food, caffeine, sugar and alcohol at least 4 to 6 hours before you go to bed. Develop a regular exercise program. P
20、roper exercise and nutrition will help improve sleep patterns. However, avoid exercising 2 hours before bed, since this may stimulate your body and make it more difficult to fall asleep.Establish a pre-bedtime rule that will help you focus on sleep. You can try meditation(沉思), reading or deep breath
21、ing and relaxation. Your bedtime rule should be yours. Do not worry about it fitting into a specific category. Do what is best for you.Things such as room temperature, noise and light levels and even your bed mattress(床垫) can have a lot of effect on the quality of sleep that you experience. Block ou

25、n-ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since. A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride a
26、way. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins Twinkle, twinkle, little star or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.One explanation is the law of overlearning,
27、 which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, additional learning trials increase the length of time we will remember it.In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to liste
28、n to and remind ourselves of words such as Twinkle, twinkle, little star and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but over learn.The multiplication tables(乘法口诀表) are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, bec
29、ause they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.The law of overlearning explains why cramming(突击学习)for an examination, though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the
30、 examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary for ones future development.13.What is the main idea of paragraph 1?A .Poem reading is a good way to learn words.B. Children have a better memory than grown-ups.C
31、. People remember well what they learned in childhood.D. Stories for children are easy to remember.14.What does the word they in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. Commonly accepted rules. B. Things easily forgotten.C. The multiplication tables. D. School subjects.15.What is the authors opinion on cramming?A.
32、It leads to failure in college exams.B. It increases students learning interest.C. Its possible to result in poor memory.D. Its helpful only in a limited way.七选五(根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。) What is the difference between happy people and unhappy people? _16_Read the following list of
33、things that HAPPY people do differently from UNHAPPY people and you will know.Well, I can tell you surely that those people who are really happy, fear less and love a lot more. They see each moment, each challenge(挑战), each person as an opportunity(机会) to discover more about themselves and the world
34、 around them. _17_Happy people understand that you cant really change a situation(境况) by resisting(反抗)it. But they can feel better by understanding that there might be a reason._18_But , they ask themselves questions like: What can I learn from this? How can I make this better? They always seem to b
35、e pleasant and hopeful no matter .They do the things they do because of the meaning it brings into their lives and because they get a sense of purpose by doing so._19_They care more about living a life full of meaning rather than, what in our modern society we would call, living a successful life. T
36、he fact here is that most of the time they get both, success and meaning, just because they choose to focus on doing the things they love the most._20_They make sure that their actions bring meaning and happiness in the lives of many. They look for ways to give and to share the best of themselves wi
