23、 The children at the top of the class succeed by knowing a few basic skills that others can easily learn. According to the education experts and students themselves, here are the secrets of top students.
Study is the first thing. Once the books are open or the computer is on, phone calls are unanswered, TV shows unwatched, snacks unnoticed. Study is business; business comes before everything.
Study anywhere or everywhere. Study times are different for different children. Some work late at night when the house is quiet. Others wake early. Still others study as soon as they come home from school. However, all agree that consistency (持之以恒) is needed.
Get organized. Don’t waste time looking for a pencil or missing paper. Keep everything right where one can put one’s hands on it. Even for a student who doesn’t keep his own study area organized, a bag or a drawer (抽屉) is needed to put things in to save time.
Learn how to read. The secret of good reading is to be an active (主动的) reader—one who continually asks questions that lead to a full understanding of the writer’s message.
Use your time best. Even the best students put off their work sometimes. But when that happens, they face it. “If you want to be at the top, make sure to finish the work on time.” says Christi Anderson, a top student at Lyman High School.
Take good notes and use them. Reading the text is important, but the teacher is going to test you on what he or she emphasized (强调). That’s what you find in your notes.
Another kind of important “secret” of the top students is not so secret at all. For almost all of them, their parents’ help is important.
【1】According to the third paragraph (段落), as students, we should all .
A. study late into night B. study in the early morning
C. study as soon as we get home D. study in our favorite time with consistency
【2】The fourth paragraph mainly tells us to save time for study.
A. to look for our stationery B. to keep everything in hand
C. to get everything organized D. to organize ourselves into groups
【3】Which of the following is true about an active reader?

C. Study everywhere. D. Arrange time well.
【4】According to the writer, the real secret in becoming a top student lies in .
A. the good teachers B. the good education experts
C. some basic learning skills D. the parents’ help
24、We know that many animals do not stay in one place. Birds, fish and other animals move from one place to another at a certain time. They move for different reasons: most of them move to find food more easily, but others move to get away from places that are too crowded.
When cold weather comes, many birds move to warmer places to find food. Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed. The most famous migration(迁移)is probably the migration of the fish, which is called "salmon". This fish is born in fresh water but it travels many miles to salt water. There it spends its life. When it is old, it returns to its birthplace in fresh water. Then it gives birth and dies. In northern Europe, there is a kind of mouse. They leave their mountain homes when they become too crowded. They move down to the low land. Sometimes they move all the way to the seaside, and many of them are killed when they fall Into the sea.
Recently, scientists have studied the migration of a kind of lobster(龙虾). Every year, when the season of the bad weather arrives, the lobsters get into a long line and start to walk across the floor of the ocean. Nobody knows why they do this, and nobody knows where they go.
So, sometimes we know why humans and animals move from one place to another, but at other times we don't. Maybe living things just like to travel.
【1】Most animals move from one place to another at a certain time to .
A. give birth B. find beautiful places
C. find food more easily D. enjoy warmer weather
【2】The fish called "salmon" spends a long time in .
A. salt water B. its birthplace
C. fresh water D. rivers
【3】The mice In northern Europe move when .
A. they give birth
B. the place gets too crowded
C. they haven't enough food
D. the weather is bad
【4】The lobsters move .
A. to find more food
B. at a certain time
C. to the undersea
D. to the fresh water
【5】What is the main idea of the passage?
A. The migration of the fish called "salmon" is the most famous migration.
B. Animals move to find food more easily.
C. Living things move from one place to another because they like to travel.
D. Sometimes we know why and how living things move from one place to another, but sometimes we don't.
25、 Newspapers have been an important part of everyday life since the 18th century. Many countries have hundreds of different newspapers. Reading newspapers is a must for a modern man. But how do newspaper e【1】decide which news stories to print? Why do they print some stories and not others? What makes a good newspaper story?
Firstly, it is important to report news stories. TV stations can report news much f【2】than newspapers. Yet, newspapers give more information about the same story. They may also look at the story in another way, or they may print c【3】different stories from those on TV.
Secondly, a news story has to be interesting and unusual. People don’t want to read stories about everyday life. As a result, many stories are about some kind of danger and s【4】 to be “bad”news.
Another factor (因素) is also very important in many news stories. Many people are interested in news in foreign countries, but more p【5】to read stories about people, places and events in their own country. So the stories on the f【6】 page in Chinese newspapers are usually very different from the ones in British, French and American newspapers.
Today, with so many newspapers and so many television and Internet sites, people can get their news quickly. Many newspapers have lost so many r【7】, so they have been forced to close.
