Creating a study plan
Studying is important to students. But it is always difficult to find enough time to study every subject you need. So a good plan helps you to make sure of your success in study.
Then, how to make a study plan? Well, you can begin with listing all the subjects you need to study and make sure what you need to do for each subject. Next, you should decide how much time you should spend on different subjects. Now, it is a good idea to study at the same time every day. In this way, you actually have a plan you can remember easily. While arranging （安排） time for each subject, you also need to make sure that you still have time for family, friends and rest. This is because you won't be able to succeed in your studies unless you balance your personal life and your study.
Once the plan is made, the next thing you need to do is to follow it. One of the biggest challenges in following your study plan is that you will be tempted （诱惑） to avoid it and do something relaxing, or fun instead. Luckily, you can fight this temptation by taking breaks. But be sure not to take extra breaks or too long breaks as it can affect your plan. So at the start of your break，set an alarm clock to remind you when your break is over. Also, you need to use your
break wisely. For example, go for a short walk, eat a small snack, or listen to some music. To avoid forgetting to follow your plan, try to get into the habit of looking at your calendar every day. Sometimes our plans are herd to follow because some important people in our lives distract （使分心） us from our goals. In order to avoid this, tell people in your life about your plan. Put up a copy of your study guide at home so you and your family can see it, and email a copy to your friends so they know when you have spare time.
Creating a study plan The ________ of a study plan ●Make a ________ of all the subjects you need to study. ●Decide on the time you will ________ on each subject. Make a study plan ●Study at the same time every day, or you will ________ your plan. ●Arrange time for other activities in order to ________ your personal life and your study. ●Fight temptation by taking breaks; Set an alarm to remind yourself; ________ the study Use your break in a ________way. plan ●Make use of your calendar: Put up your plan where it can be ________easily.

It was a Christmas night. I was an unlucky nurse who had to work on such a beautiful festival. When I was complaining（抱怨）about it, three people appeared at my desk－a tired woman and her two children, a son and a daughter.
\"Are you all sick?\" I asked doubtfully because they seemed all right. \"Yes,\" the woman answered weakly and lowered her head.
But when they started to present their problems, things became unclear. The daughter had a fever, but her temperature was OK. The son had an earache, but he couldn't tell me which ear hurt. It seemed that the mother was pretending（假装）to cough.
Something was wrong. But I only explained that it might take a while before a doctor could meet them. \"Take your time, please,\" said the mother. I checked their charts－no address. All of a sudden I knew they were homeless while the hospital was warm.
The family huddled（蜷缩）together under the Christmas tree, smiling and talking with each other sweetly. Quietly, I went back to the nurses' station and told them what happened in the waiting room. It was just like God sending us a gift on this Christmas night. The nurses' station suddenly came back to life. All the nurses went into action for \"a Christmas emergency（急诊）\". We took out our meals for our Christmas \"patients\". We also put together oranges and apples as presents. We tried to exceed（超过）the needs of a family who only wanted a warm place on
Christmas night. Later, the little girl kissed me and said, \"Thanks for being our angel.\" （1）When did the story happen?

6．请阅读下面这篇文章，根据所提供的信息，完成信息卡。
Bike-sharing is new for short journeys in cities. It is a good choice for the big cities to develop healthily.
A report found that shared bikes started the nation's love for bikes again. The love is not only among young people born in the 1980s and 2000s, but also among people over sixty. Now they are choosing bikes instead of cars to make short journeys in cities. If you have a smart phone, the nearest bike equipped with GPS will be easily found through a certain app on your phone. It can also be unlocked through the app and left anywhere in public for the next user. The cost of riding depends on the time that you spend. Normally, every hour you ride, you just need to pay one yuan.
It is said that bike-sharing will help improve the cities' environment. It not only helps solve the traffic problems, but also will help to make more use of space in cities. Take Beijing as an example. If more people choose shared bikes, an area of five Bird's Nest Stadiums （体育场）will be saved. At the same time, there are some problems with shared bikes that people need to solve properly. For example, some people park the bikes in their home; some break up the bikes on purpose; and others even throw them into the river. Facing all these problems, everyone should raise their own awareness of protecting the bikes. We should not only enjoy them, but also value them and put them to good use.

10．任务型阅读。根据短文内容，回答下列问题。
The first people who drank tea were the Chinese. The bush grew wild all over the south of China. Chinese people liked the taste, and found that the drink could refresh （使恢复精力）them. The new drink reached England in 1657. It was sold at one of the coffee houses. Only the very rich people could afford （买得起） to drink.
Now, people drink tea all around the world. But tea does not mean the same thing to everyone. In different countries people have very different ideas about drinking tea. In China people always
have tea together with their friends. They may drink tea at any time of the day. They only put tea leaves in their cups. They prefer the tea with nothing else in it. In the USA people drink tea at breakfast or after meals. They usually use tea bags to make their tea. Making tea with bags is faster and easier than making it with tea leaves in teapots.
Today, when we think of Western tea culture, we often think of the English, afternoon tea and beautiful china tea cups. It's believed that an English lady, Anna, first introduced the idea of afternoon tea. She invited some friends to join her for an afternoon meal between four and five o'clock. This meal included cakes, sandwiches and tea. In order to make this afternoon meal important, fine china cups and plates, and silver teapots, knives, forks and spoons were used. Soon, afternoon tea parties became popular social occasions （社交活动）. Today, afternoon tea parties continue to play an important part in the social life in modern Britain. （1）Why did the Chinese like drinking tea? （2）When did the people in England first drink tea? （3）What do the Americans use to make tea?
（4）Who is believed to come up with the idea of afternoon tea?

（2）In 1657.
（3）They usually use tea bags to make their tea. （4）Anna. （5）Yes, they are.
【解析】【分析】短文大意：这篇短文主要讲的是茶文化的起源和发展过程。
（1）细节理解题。根据Chinese people liked the taste, and found that the drink could refresh（使恢复精力） them.可知中国人喝茶是因为喜欢这个味道，他们发现茶能使他们恢复精力。故答案为：Bceause they liked the taste, and found that the drink could refresh them. （2）细节理解题。根据The new drink reached England in 1657. 可知英国人是在1657年开始喝茶的。故答案为：In 1657.
