6.Four Ways to Be a Great Roommate
Having a roommate can be one of the best experiences in college or,easily,one of the worst.1(36)EFollow these tips to avoid the common mistakes that turn good roommate relationships sour.
◇Talk things out.
Communication is key.If something happens,sit down with your roommate and have a face-to-face conversation.I've seen roommate relationships fall apart because something happens and,instead of  talking to each other,the two start complaining about their roommates behind their backs(37)B
◇Don't expect to be best friends.
Some roommates become the best of friends,and some don't.Don't put pressure on yourself or your roommate,especially when you first meet.(38)GAnd if your roommate doesn't end up being your best friend,don't worry.
◇Ask before you take.
This applies to food,clothes and anything else.If you want to keep a relationship going,show your roommate that you have respect for what is his or hers by asking first.(39)C
◇Clean up after yourself.
This should do without saying.Don't be lazy.Or,at least,don't bury your roommate in  your clothes and garbage.Most people I've come across in college are messy.(40)DBut being considerate with where you put your stuff will help you avoid conflict.
 
A.So you need to think twice before you help your roommates out.
B.This creates nothing but awkward.situations and unhappiness.
C.Even if you both agree to share everything,you should still ask.
D.You don't have all the time to clean your room and keep it organized.
E.It all starts with you to have a good relationship with your roommate.
F.Sometime you get stuck with someone who has tons of negative energy.
G.Remember,you're trying to make a new friend,not to scare your roommate away.

分析 本文屬于說明文閱讀,作者通過這篇文章主要向我們描述了四種方法成為一個好室友:事情講出來,不期望是最好的朋友,做事之前問一下,自己收拾干凈.

解答 36.E.推理判斷題.根據(jù)語境Having a roommate can be one of the best experiences in college or,easily,one of the worst可知,擁有室友可能是我們大學(xué)時最美好的經(jīng)歷或者最壞的經(jīng)歷之一,關(guān)鍵在于和室友是否有良好的關(guān)系.然后作者引出本文話題:如何與室友建立好的關(guān)系?故選E.
37.B.推理判斷題.根據(jù)前一句話I've seen roommate relationships fall apart because something happens and,instead of  talking to each other,the two start complaining about their roommates behind their backs可知,背后抱怨室友只會使情況更加尷尬,創(chuàng)造更多的不愉快.故選B.
38.G.推理判斷題.根據(jù)語境Don't put pressure on yourself or your roommate,especially when you first meet可知,剛和室友見面時,作者建議把室友當(dāng)成一個新朋友,而不要當(dāng)成一個好朋友,避免給對方太多壓力,把對方嚇跑.故選G.
39.C.推理判斷題.根據(jù)語境If you want to keep a relationship going,show your roommate that you have respect for what is his or hers by asking first可知,要充分尊重室友,要多征求室友的意見.所以即使雙方已經(jīng)同意共同分享一切的時候,也要問一下.故選C.
40.D.推理判斷題.根據(jù)此段中的內(nèi)容Don't be lazy.Or,at least,don't bury your roommate in  your clothes and garbage.Most people I've come across in college are messy可知,作者建議不要太懶,雖然不用一直收拾房間,但是要把自己的東西放得有次序,以免與室友因此發(fā)生沖突.故選D.

點(diǎn)評 七選五閱讀是完成性閱讀,和完形填空很類似,不同的是一個選詞,一個選句子.解題時,要注意上下文語境,充分考慮信息詞(選項中和空格前后句子中相同或相近的詞),選出最符合語境的句子.

1.Can you imagine your parents choosing your husband or wife for you?And can you imagine not setting eyes on him or her until your wedding day?This situation is common in India,the Middle East and many parts of Africa.(31)E We don't realize that people in other places often get married in very different ways-and with different motives (動機(jī)).
(32)F A marriage provides a safe and stable home for the husband and wife.It also joins two families,which benefits the couple's parents and makes them happy.Marriage also brings children,making sure the couple is taken care of in old age.Because a marriage is important for the whole family,some cultures don't let young people choose whom to marry.
Just as there are many different reasons for marriage,there are also many different wedding rituals (儀式).(33)A In a typical Western wedding,the bride seeks good luck by wearing"something old","something new","something borrowed"and"something blue"."Something old"represents the past."Something new"represents success in the future."Something borrowed"reminds the bride she can get help from her friends and family.(34)D
In Poland,one wedding tradition is not only lucky,but also very practical.The wedding guests pin money to the bride's dress while she is dancing.The money is meant to bring luck and to help the young couple build their new life.In Bermuda,the young couple plants a tree in the yard of their new home.Once they move in,they take good care of the tree,making it grow and blossom.The planting of the tree is a good metaphor for marriage.(35)B

A.Every culture has its own ways of bringing good luck to the happy cuple.
B.A truly good marriage is something that grows with care.
C.In the United States,parents do not arrange marriages for their children.
D.And"something blue"reminds her to be true to her husband.
E.Marriage customs around the world often differ from our own.
F.In many countries,marriage is a practical matter.
G.Different countries have different cultures.

15.How to Improve Your Study HabitsPerhaps your are an average student with average intelligence.You do well enough in school,but you probably think you will never be a top student.(36)GYes,even students of average intelligence can be top students without additional work.Here are some tips for you:
1.Plan your time carefully.Make a list of your weekly tasks.Then make a schedule or chart of your time.Fill in committed time such as eating,sleeping,meetings,classes,etc.Then decide on good,regular times for studying.(37)FIt's important to set aside time for relaxation,hobbies,and entertainment as well.Furthermore,it will enable you to plan your activities so that you have adequate time for both work and play.
2.Find a good place to study.Choose one place for your study area.It may be a desk or a chair at home or in the school library,but it should be comfortable,and it should not have distractions.When you begin to work,you should be able to concentrate on the subject.
3.(38)BListening to what the teacher says in class means less work later.Sit where you can see and hear well.Take notes to help you remember what the teacher says.
4.Study regularly.(39)CReview important points mentioned in class as well as points you remain confused about.If you review your notes and textbook regularly,the material will become more meaningful and you will remember it longer.Regular review leads to improved performances on test.
5.Develop a good attitude about tests.The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject.The world won't end if you don't pass a test,so don't worry excessively about a single test.Tests provide more than grades.(40)E

A.Be volunteer to raise questions.
B.Make good use of your time in class.
C.Go over your notes as soon as you can after class.
D.Those who make the best of their time study with more ease.
E.They also let you know what you need to spend more time studying on.
F.Of course,studying shouldn't occupy all of the free time on the schedule.
G.This is not necessary the case,however.You can receive better grades if you want to.
