Everybody has a brain,but not many people know how the brain works.Some people believe that the brain is like the hard disk of a computer.We use it to store files 一 pictures,language (words,texts,sounds) and so on.Others compare the brain to a huge cupboard with lots of shelves and boxes in it.We put information into these boxes and hope to find it again later.

    The brain is not a computer disk,and it isn't a cupboard.Look at the picture here.It looks a hit like weeds(杂草)in a garden,doesn't it?The picture actually shows a child's neocortex— a part of the brain that controls sight and hearing.You can guess what happens 一 more "weeds" grow as the child gets older.Scientists call these neuronal(神经元的)networks.The networks grow around our neurons.What makes them grow?"Learning!Learning is brain change, "says Professor James Zull from Case Western University in Cleveland,Ohio,USA. "Without learning,nothing changes in the brain.For every new word you learn in your English lesson,every problem you solve in maths,every new song you learn to sing,a neuronal network grows in your brain and the brain changes."

    The more neuronal networks we grow,the better we can think and the better we remember.You may wonder if there is anything you can do to make the networks in your brain grow better.Professor Zull says yes,there is.He says that brain change is strongest when a) you are interested in and like what you are learning,b) you are in control of what you learn and c) you get challenging tasks that make you think hard.Understanding a challenging task makes you feel good and develops your brain.

(1)What's the main idea of the first paragraph?   

A.The brain — a fantastic computer.

B.What people believe about the brain.

C.How to make your brain stronger.

D.Our brain 一 a growing system.

(2)What can we learn from the passage?   

A.Learning makes our neuronal networks grow.

B.Seeing a challenging task develops our brain.

C We remember better when things are easy.

D.There's nothing we can do to make us smarter.

Students these days often have a lot of worries. Sometimes they have problems with their schoolwork, and sometimes with their friends. What can they do about this? Some people believe the worst thing is to do nothing. Laura Mills, a teenager from London, agrees."Problems and worries are normal in life," says Laura. But I think talking to someone helps a lot. Unless we talk to someone, we'll certainly feel worse."

    Laura once lost her wallet, and worried for days.She was afraid to tell her parents about it.She even walked three miles to school each day because she didn't have any money.She just kept thinking,"If I tell my parents, they'll be angry!" In the end,she talked to her parents and they were really understanding.Her dad said he sometimes made careless mistakes himself. They got her a new wallet and asked her to be more careful."I will always remember to share my problems in the future!" Laura says.

    Robert Hunt advises students about common problems. He feels the same. way as Laura."It is best not to run away from our problems. We should always try to solve them."He thinks the first step is to find someone you trust to talk to.This person doesn't need to be an expert like himself." Students often forget that their parents have more experience, and are always there to help them.

    In English, we say that sharing a problem is like cutting it in half. So you're halfway to solving a problem just by talking, to someone about it.

Critical thinking(批判性思维) is trying to improve the way you think. People use critical thinking in every area of life to solve problems and evaluate claims(评估主张).

Like every other skill, critical thinking takes practice. When a problem comes our way, we need to think critically to decide how to solve it. When we see an advertisement, for example, we should stop and think. Advertisements are made to make people feel certain that they are true, and then people can buy the products. But is what the advertisement says true? Is it making a claim? Or does it only interest us? Critical thinking is important and stops us from making poor choices. In fact, we are using it if we ask questions naturally about what we see.

Practice makes perfect. While you are growing in critical thinking, you'll become a wiser and more thoughtful person. There are many ways of doing practice. Here are a few.

★ Read about a topic people disagree on. Look at articles or books on all sides of the subject. For each side of the subject, think carefully and evaluate it.

★ When you see or hear a claim, ask questions about it. Who is making the claim and why?

★Evaluate your own thinking. Where and why do you think uncritically? How can you improve?

Critical thinking should be part of everything we do. It may help you to succeed at work or school Make yourself into a habit of critical thinking. Change your thoughts and change your world.

From an early age,we were taught that if we wanted to be successful,we had to study hard and get good results at school.In fact,good students may just end up doing jobs they don't like,and some even lead an unhappy life.Why is it like that?

It's been 100 years since the actor and filmmaker Charlie Chaplin produced the film The Kid ,which many consider to be his greatest one.

Like all films at the time,The Kid was made in black and white and was silent (made without any sound,not even the characters talking).The story is about the relationship between " the Tramp",played by Chaplin,and his adopted (领养的)child,played by Jackie Coogan.The pair develop a partnership where the six year﹣old boy breaks windows and runs away,so that Chaplin's character can offer his services as a window fixer.

Although the film is a comedy,it also has some tragedy,reflecting Chaplin's own life.He started testing actors for the role of the Kid just a few days after his baby son had died.Chaplin was known for being hard to please,and it is said that if he could,he would have played every role in every one of his films.When Chaplin visited a theatre,a dancer brought his son,Jackie Coogan,on stage,and Chaplin knew he had his co﹣star (联袂主演者).Chaplin later wrote, "All children in some form have talents;the trick is to bring it out in them.With Jackie it was easy.

Like the Kid in the film,Chaplin and his brother Sydney grew up very poor.They lived in London and were raised by their mother.When Chaplin was 10 years old,his mum became too ill to loo after her sons,so they had to take care of themselves.He later wrote that the film sets in The Kid were based (基于)on the places where he and Sydney had lived with their mother as children.

(1)The second paragraph mainly talks about    .

A.

why The Kid was made

when The Kid was on

always visited the theatre alone

was possibly talented in acting

knew much about Chaplin before

played every role in Chaplin's films

You may study differently from your friends,but your study habits are not wrong!

    Kelly and Maria are best friends with a lot in common.They love doing things together,such as going to movies and concerts,shopping,or just sitting at a small cafe.Since they take a lot of the same school subjects,they would love to study together,but they find this impossible.Their working styles are so completely different that they can't be in the same room while they are studying!

    Kelly would like to study in a clean,open space,while Maria works best with books,papers and other things around her.Kelly prefers to study in a totally silent room,but Maria loves to play music or even have the TV on.Kelly can sit for hours without moving,and often gets all her homework done in one sitting.Maria,however,is always getting up,and says that she thinks best when she's on the move.

    You might be asking yourself:which way of studying gets better results?Many people believe that a silent,tidy setting(环境)is the way to go,.Some research has even shown that outside noise and untidiness help some people focus(聚焦)their attention,because it makes them form a "wall" in their mind around what they are doing and improves their focus.

As teenagers(青少年), you have many dreams. The dreams can be very big, such as winning the Nobel Prize, or they can be small. You may just want to become one of the ten best students in your class.

Once you find a dream, what do you do with it? Do you ever try to make your dream real?

"Follow Your Heart" by Australian writer Andrew Mathews tells us that making our dreams real is life's biggest challenge.

You may think you're not very good at some school subjects, or that it is impossible for you to become a writer. These kinds of thoughts stop you from getting your dream, the book says.

In fact, everyone can make his dream come true. The first thing you must do is to remember what you dream is.

Don't let itleave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want. Do this step by step (逐步地)and your dream will come true faster because a big dream is, in fact, many small dreams.

You must also never give up your dream. There will be difficulties on the road to your dreams. But the biggest difficulty comes from yourself. You need to decide what is the most important. Studying instead of watching TV will lead to (导致) better exam results, while saving five yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book. As you get closer to your dream, it may change a little. This is good as you have the chance to learn more skills and find new interests.

A.
