First, the person must recognize that there is a problem. For example, Sam' s bicycle is bro ken. Sam must【24】that there is a problem with his bicycle. Next the person must【25】the problem. Sam can repair his bicycle, he must know why it does not work. Now the person must look for【26】that will make the problem clearer and lead to possible solutions. Suppose Sam decides that his bike does not work because there is something wrong with the brakes. At this time he can look in his bicycle repair book and【27】his friends at the bike shop. After【28】.the problem, the person should have several suggestions for a possible solution. In the end, one suggestion seems to be the solution【29】the problem. Sam, for example, suddenly sees there is a piece of chewing gum(口香糖) stack to a brake. What he will do is to clean the brake. Finally the solution is【30】.

(79)When students first go to a library, they may be at a loss as to what to read of all the different subjects. Well, Bacon tells you to "look at weak places in your armor(盔甲)", and shows you how to fill up the blanks in your knowledge. On the other hand, it is no good just trying to fill your mind with knowledge. Knowledge in itself is often useless. A mind filled with too much knowledge is like a room too full of furniture; a man cannot walk about freely in it, and look out the windows. It is much better to concentrate on a few subjects which interest you and to deal lightly with the others than to march heavily through the whole range(范围) of learning, like a silly tourist going through a museum and not missing a single object. (80) If you try to master every subject, you may become very wise, but you will be very lonely and you will probably lose all your friends. So you must learn to pick and choose, and you must also learn to look here and there in a library like a camel eating grass on the grassland. If you watch it eating, you will see that although he is supposed to be one of the most stupid animals in the world, he has at least one of the qualities(品质) of the cultured(有修养的) man, the power to pick and choose. A student looking for mental food in a library should take the camel as his model.
The writer thinks that one must ______
A.read as many books as he can
B.try to read books on all the different subjects
C.only read books on subjects that interest him
D.read and absorb a lot
Of course, some people have remarkable chances which lead to fame and success without this long and hard training. Connie Pratt, for example, was just an ordinary girl working in a bicycle factory. A film producer happened to catch sight of her one morning waiting at a bus stop, as he drove past in his car. He stopped and asked if she would like to go to the film studio to do a test, and she thought he was joking. It took the producer twenty minutes to convince Connie that he was serious. The test was successful. And within a few weeks she was playing the leading part opposite one of the most famous actors of the day. But chances like this happen once in a blue moon!
From the very beginning, the author puts it clearly that acting is a profession______.
A.for ambitious people only
B.for young people only
C.too difficult for young people
D.sought after by too many people
If you are in a very large class, it may not be necessary to greet the teacher on【22】. In a small class the teacher will probably notice each person as he arrives, and you【23】smile and say, "Good morning, Dr fen." Western manners do not require you to stand up when your teacher comes in or when you answer a question【24】do you need to stand still at the door for a moment when you come in. One never addresses one's teacher as "Teacher". It is quite【25】to say "sir" to a man, but if your teacher is a woman, you must use her surname.
It is bad manners to come late to class. If you are late,【26】should be made to the teacher either at the time or after class.
It is bad manners in the classroom, as elsewhere, to talk while anyone else is【27】. If you have something to say which is on the subject, wait till you have【28】. If it is not on the subject, save it till class is over.
It is also bad manners in the classroom, as elsewhere to look at anything【29】has written or to try to see what mark he has【30】. without asking his permission

A man who knows a bit about carpentry (木工术) will make his table more quickly than the man who does not. If the instructions are not very clear, or the shape of a piece is puzzling his experience helps him to conclude that it must fit there, or that its function must be that. In the same way, the reader's sense and experience helps him to predict what the writer is likely to ,say next; that he must be going to say this rather than that. A reader who can think along with the writer in this way will find the text.
This skill is so useful that you may wish to make your students aware of it so that they can use it to tackle difficult texts. It does seem to be the case that as we read we make hypotheses (假设) about what the writer intends to say; these are immediately modified by what he actually does say, and are replaced by new hypotheses about what will follow. We have all had the experience of believing we were understanding a text until suddenly brought to a halt by some word or phrase that would not fit into the pattern and forced us to reread and readjust our thoughts. Such occurrences lend support to the notion of reading as a constant making and remaking of hypotheses.
If you are interested in finding out how far this idea accords with (符合) practice, you may like to try out the text and questions. To do so, take a piece of card and use it to mask the text. Move it down the page, revealing only one
t a time. Answer the question before you go on to look at the next section. Check your prediction against what the text actually says, and use the new knowledge to improve your next prediction. You will need to look back to earlier parts of the text if you are to make accurate prediction, for you must keep in mind the general organization of the argument as well as the detail within each sentence. If you have tried this out, you have probably been interested to find how much you can predict, though naturally we should not expect to be right every time -- otherwise there would be no need for us to read.
Conscious use of this technique can be helpful when we are faced with a part of the text that we find difficult: if we can see the overall pattern of the text, and the way the argument is organized, we can make a reasoned guess at the next step. Having an idea of what something might mean can be a great help in interpreting it.
The author uses the examples of carpentry and reading to show______.
A.the importance of making prediction
B.the similarity in using one's senses
C.the necessity of making use of one's knowledge
D.the most effective method in doing anything
A.a person's face is more complex than his personality
B.a person's personality is easily distinguished
C.people's personalities are very alike
D.many words are available when people try to describe one's personality
But it is not【24】He should put his heart and soul completely【25】his work, and not waste his spare time. "Work while you work and play while you play." is as good a【26】for young people as for old.
There is【27】help to diligence than the habit of early rising, and this, just like【28】good habits, is most easily formed in【29】. There is an English proverb "Lost time never retums." This【30】everybody must be diligent, and must make good use of his【31】. One must study hard when one is young,【32】one may make【33】progress, succeed in life and become useful to one's country and people.
I have never heard【34】are diligent will become beggars, but I know that lazy fellows will become beggars. Therefore, I should say that diligence is the mother of【35】

The scientist's knowledge must be exact.There is no room for half right or right just half the time.He must be as nearly right as the conditions permit.What works under one set of conditions at one time must work under the same conditions at other times.If the conditions are different,any changes the scientist observes in a demonstration must be explained by the changes in the conditions.This is one reason that investigations are important in science.Albert Einstein,who developed the theory of relativity,arrived at this theory through mathematics.The accuracy of this mathematics was later tested through investigations,Einstein's ideas were shown to be correct.A scientist uses many tools for measurements.Then the measurements are used to make mathematical calculations that may test his investigations.
