One American university uses a robot as a teacher to help students with their problems. And none of the students knew that was a robot at the beginning!
Jill Watson, a robot made in that university, helps the students a lot. When answering their questions on the Internet, Jill seems to be an excellent teacher. She can give wonderful answers quickly. She sounds natural and usually says good words.
When someone told the students that their“ teacher” was a robot, they all got very surprised.
“ How was it possible I was talking to a robot ” said Bailey. “ She sounds like a common teacher.” Another student Jennifer told the newspaper,“ We are thinking about choosing Jill Watson to be our best teacher. She is really helpful.”
Now many students like to ask questions on their school's website. It usually takes teachers too much
time to answer them. So the university had such an idea of making Jill Watson. It's a faster way to help the students with their problems.
Jill can quickly find possible answers in her own computer to the questions and make sure they are all right. After that, she tells the students in an electronic voice(电子声音) that sounds like a famous actress.
( )24. How does Jill Watson answer students' questions
A. By speaking to them. B. By sending e- mails. C. By talking on the phone.

So, it's exam time again. Have you done the necessary work to get good marks Sleeping with the textbook under the pillow(枕头) doesn't work. The best way is to space your practice out, rather than cram(塞) it all together. Just as a scientist called Tom Stafford advises, if you organize five hours of study into one hour a day, you' ll remember more than if you study for five hours in one day.
▲ Get pens and paper and start working! Students who can test themselves earlier will be better at retrieving the knowledge from the memory and keep it in the long run. John Dunlosky, a professor(教授) in the US, suggests,“ You start by reading a textbook with your favorite pens and colors, and then write down the important ideas on small cards. While doing so, you actually try to test yourselves on them.”
Good revision(复习) should give you confidence(信心), but if you are still worried, it's not harmful to follow some special customs( 习俗). In Japan, it seems to be a tradition for students to eat Katsudon before a test. This is a bowl of rice with egg and pork pieces. The name of the dish makes
people think of the word“ Katsu”, meaning“ winning”. For some students in South Korea, the key to success is not wash- ing their hair before an exam, because they believe they could wash all the knowledge out of their heads. And in different parts of the world, there are always those who believe in their“ lucky underwear”.
The bottom line is that you need to study, eat a good meal, sleep well on the eve of the test, and believe that your efforts(努力) will pay off.
Good luck in your exam!
( )28. The underlined word“ retrieving” would probably mean“ ”.
A. filling in B. getting back C. giving away
( )29. Which sentence can be best put in ▲ in Paragraph 2
A. Don't read your textbooks early.
B. Don't depend on memory alone.
C. Don't test yourselves very often.
( )30. Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 3
A. The word“ Katsudon” sounds similar to“ winning” in South Korea.
B. In some countries, washing hair brings bad luck after having exams.
C. Some people might wear special underwear before important events.
( )31. What does the writer advise students to do before tests
A. Prepare for your exams well and be confident.
B. Choose your favorite pens and stay up late.
C. Follow some customs and enjoy yourselves.

As an exchange student, I studied in France for two years. The first time I took a class in the chemistry lab, I was surprised to find that students were fully“ armed”. Everyone was wearing goggles(护目镜) and gloves. Safety comes first for science lab class.
My chemistry teacher Mrs. Louise usually gave us the instruction paper(说明书) the night before the lab class and let us read it. During the class, she first went over the steps and then put us into groups of two to do the experiments(实验). What was special was that for every lab class, Mrs. Louise changed everyone's lab partner to make them work with different classmates.
The class was often filled with laughter and screams(尖叫). We once tried to burn the chemicals and watch the colors of the flames(火焰). Different chemicals produced different colors of flames, including
bright orange and dark green. Many students in my class were surprised.“ Wow! That's so beautiful!” they screamed. Then they excitedly took pictures, posted them online and sent them to their friends. Mrs. Louise didn't get angry with us at all for our“ noises”. She herself even took photos with us!
After finishing an experiment, we had to write a lab report. If we made a big mistake in the experiment, we needed to analyze(分析) why it happened and what we should do to avoid it next time. The lab reports were very important. They made up around 25% of our term grade.
56. How did the writer feel when he first took the chemistry class in the lab

Methods of learning English
Here are my methods of learning English. First, I usually watch English movies and listen to English songs.I think it's a relaxing way to learn the right pronunciation and proper expressions. Second, reading passages on the same topic helps a lot in learning new words. In this way, I can repeat learning the new words and it can help me understand their meanings better. What's more, it's a good habit to keep a diary in English. That helps me think in English and improve my writing skills as well.
English is a bridge which connects the world with us. It's interesting to learn it. I hope I can make greater progress in the future.
