(1)I was only an 11-year-old girl when my parents told me that we would soon move to America. We were on the bus then. I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. I remember that I could not bear(忍受)the thought of never hearing the radio program for school children again which I listened to every morning.
In fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving, I even felt a little excited because I thought about all the places I was going to see—the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures.
The first four years in America taught me the importance of optimism(樂觀), but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost—having to study in three schools and I (2)________most of my time(2)_________learning the English language.I hardly had any time for fun. Sometimes I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother remarried(再婚), and things became even harder for me. It took me some time to get used to my stepfather(繼父). I was often sad, and saw no end to “the hard times.”
I had to do many things for the family since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated(翻譯)all kinds of information and took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there.
Luckily, things got better and better later and almost all common troubles went away at last  From those experiences I have learned one important rule: Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little!
【小題1】將(1)句譯成中文:_________________________________________________________
【小題2】在(2)處填入兩個合適的詞,使句意完整,上下文通順:__________; __________
【小題3】回答問題:Why did the writer feel excited when they were leaving?
_______________________________________________________________________________
【小題4】在文中找出此句的同義句:
Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other.
_______________________________________________________________________________
【小題5】 在文中找出主題句:___________________________________________________________


【小題1】當我的父母告訴我我們將移居到美國的時候,我僅僅是個11歲的小女孩。
【小題2】devoted;to
【小題3】Because she thought about all the places she was going to  see (-the strange and magical places she had known only from books and pictures)。
【小題4】It took me some time to get used to my stepfather.
【小題5】Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little!

解析試題分析:短文大意:作者從他的經(jīng)歷中學到了一條重要的規(guī)則:好事情一定是在最后發(fā)生。請你遇到困難時不要放棄,只要堅持,幸運總會到來!
【小題1】英譯漢:當我的父母告訴我我們將移居到美國的時候,我僅僅是個11歲的小女孩。
【小題2】根據(jù)下一句I hardly had any time for fun. 可推知本句句意:我將大部分時間都用來學習英語。所以在空白處填寫devoted;to。
【小題3】根據(jù)第二段中When we were leaving, I even felt a little excited because I thought about all the places I was going to see—the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures. 可知該作答:Because she thought about all the places she was going to  see (-the strange and magical places she had known only from books and pictures)。
【小題4】Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other.的意思是:過了一段時間之后,我的繼父和我才彼此習慣了。也就是說:習慣繼父花費了我一段時間。即它與文中句子It took me some time to get used to my stepfather.同義。
【小題5】從短文最后From those experiences I have learned one important rule: Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little!即可得到主題句:Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little!

“Tom? Are you in bed yet?” called Mrs. White. There was no answer. Mrs. White put down her book and went to her 14-year-old son’s room. Tom was sitting in front of a bright computer screen on which a motorbike was running fast.
“Oh, Tom. You’re still playing on that computer game. You must stop now, because it’s half past eleven. If you don’t go to bed soon, you’ll be very tired tomorrow.” Said Mrs. White.

Your homework habits might be affecting your grades. Are you feeling tired or bored when it comes to homework time? Are you arguing with parents about your grades? You can change the way you feel by taking better care of your mind and your body. Get the sleep you need.
Studies show that teens' natural sleeping habits are different from those of adults. This often causes less sleep among teens, since they tend to have trouble going to sleep at night, and have trouble waking in the mornings. You can avoid some of the problems that come with less sleep by changing some of your nighttime habits.
Improve your memory
A great way to improve your homework habits is to improve your memory with brain exercise. There are many theories and ideas about improving memory, but there is one mnemonic(記憶的) method that has been around since ancient times.

Fight the desire to delay
Do you get the sudden desire to feed the dog at homework time? Don't fall for it! Delay is like a little white lie we tell ourselves. We often think we'll feel better about studying later if we do something fun now, like playing with a pet, watching a TV show, or even cleaning our room. It's not true.
Avoid repetitive(重復的) stress
