Hey there,

So you're about to spend four years of your life and tens of dollars of your parents' money, and all you really know about college is that all of your friends are going. Do you ever stop to wonder why you're going?

Relax. You're making the right decision. First of all, you'll discover what interests you by taking courses in many subjects. For example, it's hard to decide if you want to be a painter if you've never painted any pictures; once you're in a drawing-room on campus, you'll know one way or the other. College is also a lot of fun - after you graduate, you'll be working every weekday for 50 or so years. And remember that college graduate cam about twice the income of those who never attended college.

Finding the right college can be difficult. Fortunately, Johnson Review is here to help you every step of the way.

·Researching Schools. To us, the most important decision you'll make is to choose the school

that really fits you best - not the one that is the most competitive (有竞争力的) or has the best-equipped rooms.

·Applying to School. On https://www.wendangku.net/doc/0616795968.html,, you'll find hundreds of actual college applications and links to many more.

·Raising Your Scores. American College Test is one of the most difficult parts of the admission course. It's

not the most important, though, and not everyone needs to prepare for the best. But, if you can do better, find the right course for better scores.

·Paying for School. Most families need financial aid for the high cost of college. The problem is that financial aid seems difficult to get and many families get caught up in the price of college rather than learning the ways to get financial aid. If you really do your research, you'll learn that you can afford to attend any college despite the cost.

For more information, call 600-3681 or visit www.Johnson https://www.wendangku.net/doc/0616795968.html,. Wherever you go, have a nice trip!

九、任务型阅读(共10小题:每小题1分，满分10分)

阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在文后第106至第115小题的空格里填上适当的单词。注意:每空1个单词。

Do you have much difficulty learning English? Are you sometimes losing interest in it? Here I'll show you how to improve your English. Choose a few of the following to get started today!

·Ask yourself weekly: What do I want to learn this week?

Asking yourself this question every week will help you stop and think for a moment about what is most important to you. It is easy to focus only on the current unit, grammar exercise, etc. However, if you take a moment to stop to make a careful plan for each week, you will notice the progress you are making and, in turn, become more inspired by how quickly you are learning English! You will be surprised at how this feeling of success will motivate (激发) you to learn even more English.

·Quickly review important new information shortly before going to bed.

Research has shown that our brains process (加工) information that is fresh in our brains while we sleep. By shortly (this means very quickly - just a glance at what you are working on at the moment) going over some exercise, reading, etc. before you go to sleep. your brain will work away on this information while you sleep!

·While doing exercises and alone at home or in your room, speak English aloud.

Connect the muscles (肌肉) of your face to the information in your head. Just as understanding the basics of tennis does not make you a great tennis player, understanding grammar rules does not mean that you can automatically (自动的) speak English well. You need to practice the act of speaking often. Speaking by yourself at home and reading the exercises you are doing will help connect your brain to your facial muscles and improve pronunciation and make your knowledge active.

·Do five to ten minutes of listening at least four times a week.

In the past, I decided I needed to get fit and went jogging - usually three or four miles. Well, after not having done anything for many months, those three or four miles really hurt! Needless to say, I did not go jogging for another few months!

Learning to understand spoken English well is very similar. If you decide that you are going to work hard and listen for two hours, chances are that you will not do extra listening exercises any time soon. If,

on the other hand, you start off slowly and listen on a regular basis (five to ten minutes at least four times a week), it will be easier to develop the habit of listening to English.

·Look for situations in which you must speak, read, and listen to English.

This is probably the most important tip. You need to use English in a "real world" situation. Learning English in a classroom is important, but putting your English knowledge into practice in real situations will improve your fluency in speaking English. If you do not know of any "real life" situation, create new ones for yourself by using the Internet to listen to news, write English responses in forums, exchange emails in English with email pals, etc.

(106) on Learning English

Making a weekly English learning (107) ·Have a clear goal of the whole week (108) of focusing only on the current unit.

·Asking yourself what you have learned helps to figure out how much you have (109) your English.

·Becoming inspired by what you have achieved leads you to more progress in learning English.

Reviewing before going to bed ·Have a glance at what you are working on before going to sleep.

·Your brains process (110) information while you an sleeping.

Speaking English as (111) as possible ·Practise speaking by yourself and reading the exercises you are doing.

·Keep trying to connect the muscles of your face to the information in your head, as practice makes (112)

Listening more often ·It is (113)that you will not do extra listening exercises any time soon if you listen for two hours once a week.

·Start off slowly and listen (114), e.g. five to ten minutes at least four times a week, then it'll be

easier to develop the habit of listening to English.

Practising English in real

situations ·Try to use English in a "real world" situation.

·Create real situations with the (115) of the Internet to listen to news, write English responses,

exchange emails, etc.
