(take math for example: when youre energetic, it will become easier to solve; when youre tired, it will be impossible ! ) *make a daily checklist. do the most important tasks first.56. according to the passage, your success in high school mainly lies in_. a. making full use of your time b. your hard work c. your brain power d. how well you play the game57.we should use daylight hours to study whenever possible because _. a. school study halls are open to students only in the daytime b. most people can spare more time to study in the daytime c. its more difficult to study effectively at night d. we have more important things to do than study at night58. on how to use our time, we should follow the following suggestions except _ . a. working out a complete plan for the whole term b. keeping a good balance between study and rest c. putting the most important tasks first d. trying to study alone instead of working with others59. the underlined word “odd” in paragraph 6 probably means _.a. strange b. irregular c. busy d. divided60. the passage is probably written for _. a. parents b. college students c. teachers d. high school studentsbhave you ever wondered?1.why do airplanes take longer to fly west than east?it can take five hours to go west-east from new york (ny) to london but seven hours to travel east-west from london to ny. the reason for the difference is an atmospheric phenomenon known as the jet(噴射) stream. the jet stream is a very high altitude wind which always blows from the west to the east across the atlantic. the planes moving at a constant air speed thus go faster in the west-east direction when they are moving with the wind than in the opposite direction.2 what would happen if the gravity(重力) on earth was suddenly turned off? supposing we could magically turn off gravity. would buildings and other structures float away? what happened would depend on how strongly the things were attached to the earth. the earth is moving at quite a speed, moving at over a thousand miles per hour. if you turn something round your head on a string, it goes around in a circle until you let go of the string. then it flies off in a straight line. “switching off” gravity would be like letting go of the string. things not attached to the earth would fly off in a straight line . people in buildings would suddenly shoot upwards at a great speed until they hit the ceiling. most things outside would fly off into space.61.the word “shoot” underlined in the 2nd passage probably means“ ”. a. send for b. move quickly c. come out d. grow quickly62. it can be inferred that without gravity .a. buildings and other structures would float awayb. trees and buildings would not so easily fly off c. something around your head would not float away d. everything outside buildings would fly off into space63. where can we most probably read this text?a. in a research paper. b. in a short story. c. in a travel magazine. d. in a students book.cthe following are some important sights in new york. american museum of natural history four floors of exhibition halls here include the world-famous fossil halls with their skeletons of enormous dinosaurs and other creatures; the culture halls, representing a variety of indigenous peoples; and mammal, bird and reptile halls. the renovated milstein hall of ocean life showcases the profusion of life in earths “l(fā)ast frontier”. also here: rose center for earth and space, with hayden planetarium and exhibits on earth and our universe. open: sunday-thursday, 10:00-17:45; friday-saturday: 10:00-20:45empire state building at 102 stories tall, the empire state building commands an inspiring view of manhattan. each year, over 3.5 million people come here for the view from the 86th-floor observatory, where they can take in the sights of the city from a glass-enclosed pavilion or the encircling open-air promenade. observatory hours: 8:00am to midnight daily. last elevators go up at 11:15pm. open daily 365 days a year.metropolitan museum of art (one of the greatest museums in the world) it is impossible to “do” the entire museum in one day or describe everything you can see here. go to the museum & spend some time in the great hall where you will find all types of help in many languages for planning your visit. if you can, get a guide before your visit or look at their website where you can plan well & learn about their many special exhibitions & programs. fee: $12 adults, $7 students & seniors（老人）, under 12 with adult free. open: tuesday-thursday and sunday. 9:30-17:15; friday-saturday, 9:30-20:45.museum of modern art (moma) moma houses an outstanding collection of american & european paintings & sculptures from late 19th c. to present. innovative in its definition of “art”, it was a pioneer in exhibiting film, photography, and industrial design. its retrospectives can draw record-breaking attendance. a happy place to take small children, as strollers are allowed. open: sunday-tuesday, thursday and saturday, 10:30-17:45; friday, 10:30-20:15.64. varieties of ocean life are exhibited in _.a. american museum of natural historyb.empire state buildingc. metropolitan museum of art d. statue of liberty65. you can visit museum of modern art at the following time except _.a. at 14:30 on mondayb. at 19:00 on fridayc. at 10:40 on wednesdayd. at 12:00 on sunday66. suppose you are a high school student, who is going to visit metropolitan museum of art with your parents, your 70-year-old grandpa and your 6-year-old younger brother, how much will you have to pay in total?
