are somesuggestions for learning mathematics:Preview in advancePreview in advance can have a general understanding and grasp of what the teachersays in class,grasp the key points when listening to the class,and focus on the key anddifficult points that you wont be able to hear.However,mathematics textbooks are moreobscure and difficult to understand.If you only rely on self-study,it is often difficult tolook down and learn.Therefore,it is important to grasp the classroom and follow therhythm of the teacher in class.Listen carefullyThe concept of fixed classrooms in some middle schools is weak,so the place andseats of classes are moving,and classes are basically held in relatively large ladderclassrooms.The classroom space is relatively large.It is recommended that you sit infront,which can hear the teachers lecture more clearly,facilitate interaction with theteacher,and also enable you to concentrate on avoiding missing knowledge points dueto distraction.Review in timeA lot of knowledge about mathematics is connected.We need to review andsummarize the knowledge we have learned so that we can master it.Of course,somestudents dont have enough patience to review,but they also have to review what theylearned in the previous class every day.Review also has to concentrate,must be of highquality,high efficiency,and do not procrastinate.MasteryThe knowledge of mathematics is advanced layer by layer.The knowledge of thenext chapter is closely connected with that of the previous chapter,which requiresstudents to study steadily,step by step,and master key knowledge.They must not learnin a hurry.In this way,they can not connect knowledge,but also disrupt the pace oflearning and increase the difficulty of learning.21.How many suggestions does this

avoid disputes inour distribution,everything on the soil belongs to you and everything under the soilbelongs to me.The devil was satisfied,but the clever farmer planted carrots.Now the harvest season has come,and the devil has come again,asking for hisharvest.But he got nothing except those withered and yellow leaves;But the farmer washappily digging his radish.You took advantage of it this time,said the devil.Youcant do it next time.The ground belongs to you and the underground belongs to me.Whatever you want.The farmer replied.Its time to sow again.This time,instead ofsowing radishes,he planted wheat（小麦）.When the wheat was ripe,he came to thefield and cut the straw to the ground.The devil came again.Seeing that he got nothingexcept stubble,he turned around and walked

say theres no scientific evidencethat early musical training affects the intelligence of young people.An estimated 80 percent of American adults think music lessons improve childrensability to lear on their performance in school.They say that the satisfaction forlearmning to play a new song helps a child express creativity.Researchers at Harvard University,however,have found that theres one thingmusical training does not do.They say it does not make children more intelligent.Samuel Mehr,a graduate student at Harvards School of Education,said it is wrongto think that learning to play a musical instrument improves a childs intellectualdevelopment.He says the evidence comes from studies that measured the mental abilityof two groups of 4-year-olds and their parents.One group attended music class,the otherwent to a class that places importance on the visual arts-arts that can be seen.“The evidence there is no.We found no evidence for any advantage on any ofthese tests for the kids

swing,especially in this special period,many people are staying athome,crazy to engage in webcast.We should treat this problem in a dialectical（辩证的）way of thinking.Everything that is beneficial will have disadvantages.Today,withthe rapid development of the Internet economy,webcast has become a means ofinformation spreading.Today,with the popularity of webcast,we shouldcomprehensively analyze its advantages and disadvantages.Webcast has become a hot word,and even derived a series of new industries andnew occupations,effectively promoting the development of social economy and thediversification of business forms.For example,in the stage of resumption of work andproduction after the epidemic was effectively controlled,the live broadcast of networkanchors promoted the rapid growth of some regional economies to a certain extent.Forexample,CCTV invited live broadcast talents such as Li Jiaqi and Weiya to combinewith stars to carry out live broadcast in Wuhan and other areas with serious epidemic,which effectively and rapidly promoted the economic development of Wuhan at thattime.At the same time,educational live broadcasting can make up for the gap betweeneducation in backward areas and advanced areas to a certain extent,give children equalopportunities to learn,promote the national plan of educational equity,and let morechildren see the outside world.But webcast also brings many problems.First,the quality of live broadcast goodsis uneven.Many live broadcasters push and sell the goods in a template manner withoutdetailed understanding.After customers receive the goods,the goods are not the rightboard.Because of logistics express fees and other reasons,they are also too lazy to argue,resulting in a gradual decline in public praise.Second,while bringing joy and economicgrowth,the live broadcast of online celebrity has made the social atmosphere moreimpetuous.The childrens ideal has become I want to be an online celebrity,thinkingthat there is food by one face.These dregs need to be abandoned.Third,the supervisionof webcast is not strict,and information often appears,which brings bad socialatmosphere.To this end,we should first strengthen the supervision of webcast from theinstitutional level,especially the examination and approval of live broadcast content,standardize all live broadcast platforms,increase punishment,curb the bad livebroadcast atmosphere from the source,and set up relevant vocational skills trainingaccording to the situation;Secondly,all broadcasters should effectively choose the livebroadcast content,conform to the mainstream social value orientation,ensure thequality and level of live broadcast,and gradually get out of the mindset of echoing others;Finally,all public opinion media should create a positive and sunny attitude at the sociallevel,treat the new thing of live broadcasting correctly,and guide public opinion tothe right track.32.What does the second paragraph say about webcast?A.Webcast can promote regional economic development and narrow the gapbetween urban and rural areas.B.Webcast allows more children in cities to see the outside world.C.The goods sold by
