Compare yoursel

14、f to the following list to determine whether or not online classes are a good fit for your personality and habits.1.

15、earners are able to motivate themselves.

The most successful students are self-motivated and set their own goals.2. Successful distance learn

16、ers never (or at least rarely) put off their assignments or wait until the last moment to write their papers. These students enjoy the freedom of working at their own pace and appreciate the ability to complete their work in as much time as it takes them, instead of waiting for an entire class. Howe

17、ver, they understand that putting off their work too often can end up adding months, if not years, to their studies.3. Successful distance learners have good reading comprehension skills. While most people learn by listening to lectures and taking notes, the majority of distance learners are expecte

18、d to master material through reading alone.

These students are able to comprehend texts at the col

19、lege level without the direct guidance of a teacher.4. Successful distance learners can resist constant distractions.

25、fore making their decision(D)online learning will take the place of traditional school in future44.If you want to stay young, sit down and have a good think. This is the research finding of a team of Japanese doctors, who say that most of our brains are not getting enough exercise-and as a result, w

26、e are ageing unnecessarily soon.Professor Taiju Matsuzawa wanted to find out why otherwise healthy farmers in northern Japan appeared to be losing their ability to think and reason at a relatively early age, and how the process of ageing could be slowed down.With a team of colleagues at Tokyo Nation

27、al University, he set about measuring brain volumes of a thousand people of different ages and varying occupations.Computer technology enabled the researchers to obtain precise measurements of the volume of the front and side sections of the brain, which relate to intellect and emotion, and determin

28、e the human character. (The rear section of the brain, which controls functions like eating and breathing, does not contract with age, and one can continue living without intellectual or emotional faculties.)Contraction of front and side parts was observed in some subjects in their thirties, but it

29、was still not evident in some sixty-and-seventy-year-olds.Matsuzawa concluded from his tests that there is a simple remedy to the contraction normally associated with age-using the head.The findings show in general terms that contraction of the brain begins sooner in people in the country than in th

30、e towns. Those least at risk, says Matsuzawa, are lawyers, followed by university professors and doctors. White collar workers doing routine work in government offices are, however, as likely to have shrinking brains as the farm worker, bus driver and shop assistant.Matsuzawas findings show that thi

31、nking can prevent the brain from shrinking. Blood must circulate properly in the head to supply the fresh oxygen the brain cells need. “The best way to maintain good blood circulation is through using the brain,” he says. “Think hard and engage in conversation. Dont rely on pocket calculators.” 共5题(

How did these players get that waywas it through training and practice, or are gr

36、eat players born, not made? First, these players came from places that have had famous stars in the pastplayers that a young boy can look up to and try to imitate. In the history of soccer, only six countries have ever won the World Cupthree from South America and three from Western Europe. There ha

37、s never been a great national teamor a really great playerfrom North America or from Asia. Second, these players have all had years of practice in the game. Alfredo Di Stefano was the son of a soccer player, as was Pele. Most players begin playing the game at the age of three or four.Finally, many g

38、reat players come from the same kind of neighborhooda poor, crowded area where a boys dream is not to be a doctor, lawyer, or businessman, but to become a rich, famous athlete or entertainer.

39、 years. Pele practiced in the street with a “ball” made of rags. And George Best learned the tricks that made him famous by bouncing the ball off a wall in the slums (贫民窟)of Belfast.All great players have a lot in common, but that doesnt explain why they are great.
