期末考试终于结束了,我们就像犯人一样,等待着被判入天堂或者地狱。期末考试成绩一公布,有的同学把脸笑开了花,;有的同学垂头丧气。我呢?成绩达到了我的目标,当然开心了,但期末考试成绩让我开心的不仅分数,最重要的是它还象征着:我的努力没有白费。让我懂得了:一分耕耘一分收获.——————
“ 日子踏着卷子与习题悄然而过,晚上温和的灯光笼罩
照着疲倦的身影”… …离期末考试倒计时10...9...8……5…... 全班都紧张起来,希望能好利用每一分钟每一秒钟进行学习,谁都不敢松懈。当然,我也不例外。每天拿着我那只陪我备战的笔,对着桌上那如小山一样堆积的参考书,不知何时,把一天都盯在书本上的眼睛往外看看,天渐渐的被黑色填满,一天就那么过去了………揉揉眼睛,放松一会,又只好拿起笔拿起书复习了……. 因为,我不能松懈,不能辜老师和父母对我的期望。我相信
:只有付出了才有回报!
哎!光阴似箭,日月如梭,终于“熬”到了学期末,今天我们就要进行期末考试了。紧张的气氛笼罩着整个学校.。
走进考场,我十分紧张,好像我的心中有一面小鼓,一直咚咚咚的敲着。
7:30~~7:45~~8:00……“.铃 铃 铃”铃声响起来了 ! 监考老师走了进来,拿着一叠试 卷,严肃地看着大家,然后便讲起了规则和注意事项。我发现,今天的教室里静得出奇。一发下考卷我就立刻拿起笔来,“刷刷刷”地写着。有些题目似乎跟我有过“一面之缘”,但有些题目我们以前却“无缘相见”….. 我绞尽脑汁的写着,认真的审题,仔细的检查„时间似乎在跟我作对,那钟表上的三兄弟飞快的转动着... “滴答滴答”...滴答滴答 “铃铃铃” 考试结束了,我把刚写完的考卷交了上去。我心里忐忑不安的。想着刚才那几张试卷,有些题是不是做错了......“算了,再说也没用了,没关系,只要尽力了就好了。有付出就有回报”我对自己说
经过几天的考试,那绞尽脑汁的题目终于都攻破了。肩上的担子卸了下来,顿时无比轻松。但静下来的时候,心里又觉得些忐忑不安,这次到底能考多少分呢?一分耕耘真的是一分收获吗?会不会因为自己粗心丢了很多分呢??
盼着盼着,终于晚上等到了老师发来的短信:总分651分,班级第2.,年级第
五。“耶,耶耶,我的付出没有白费!原来付出和回报真的是成正比例的!所以我要更加努力,耕耘得多,收获就多!”我兴高采烈地说.
期末考试成绩让我喜不自胜,怡然自乐。让我相信:一分耕耘一分收获。让我懂得:要付出才有回报!
。
(其他)我知道,再多华丽的话语也都是空话,只有在以后执行,才会变成一步步坚实的脚步!
期末考试结束了,成也好,败也罢,都已经过去了,我们现在要做的就是认真总结,积极反思,调适心态,再决将来。
期末考试不仅给我们查找自己不足的机会,还让我们知道自己的真实水平,给我们指明了努力的方向!
一、写作:平时应多积累好句,应用到写作中,这会使作文提高不少分。写的时候还要多加入一些感受,是文章更生动。
二、英语听力:明明告诉自己要专心,可越是这样越发无法将心思全部投入听力当中来,有时候甚至听到下一题的时候,还在回想上一题是否正确,这个毛病必须克服。平时应该多训练才好。
三、完形填空:需要耐心,而我缺乏的就是耐心,专心理解吧。
四、阅读理解:先看题目再读文章,这是初中英语老师教我的,谢谢他,这个方法挺好的。带着问题去边读边找答案。更重要的是,读文章时,不能被打扰,不能中断,不能一心二用,心平气和地做题才好。
五、平时没有养成认真检查的习惯。答完卷之后,没有认真检查试卷,马马虎虎、粗心大意,导致失分严重。
一次考试并不是句号,更不能代表我们全部的实力。我要及时调整自己,为下一次考试做好准备!

Look at the center circles of Picture 1. Which of the centre circles looks larger?
Take a first look and you probably think that the centre circle in Diagram A is smaller than that in Diagram B. In fact, they are exactly the same size.
Then look at the picture 2 above. What do you see? A vase(花瓶) or two faces? Does the picture change quickly from one to the other again and again? Maybe or maybe not, but you can never see them at the same time.
"What's happening? Is something wrong with my eyes?" You may wonder at what you see. Don't worry. Here is how it goes:
When we look at things, our eyes send messages to our brains and then our brains interpret (解读) the information. However, sometimes our brains interpret the received information in a wrong way. It seems that our eyes are playing a joke on us. This often happens and we call it "Visual illusion" (视觉错误).
Movie makers often make use of visual illusions. They make the objects around actors much smaller or bigger than usual. This makes us believe that the actors are much larger or smaller than they usually are. The movies Jurassic Park and Honey I shrunk(缩小) the kids just make use of visual illusions.
23. What's the right order according to the passage?
a. We look at things with our eyes.

When I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s, we had a milkman delivering(送) milk to our doorstep. His name was Mr. Basille. He wore a white cap and drove a white truck. As a 5-year-old boy, I couldn’t take my eyes off the coin changer(硬币盒)fixed to his belt. He noticed this one day during a delivery and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer. Of course, he delivered more than milk. There was cheese, eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mother would write a note “Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery” and place it in the box along with the
empty bottles. And then, the buttermilk would magically appear. All of this was about more than convenience(便利). There was a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr. Basille even had a key to our house, for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box indoors, so that the milk wouldn’t be frozen. And I remember Mr. Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery. There is sadly no home milk delivery today. Big companies allowed the production of cheaper milk, making it difficult for have a delivery service. Recently, an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories. I took it home and planted it on the back porch (门廊). Every so often my son’s friends will ask what it is. So I start telling stories of my childhood, and of the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk.
26. What can be inferred(推断)from the fact that the milkman had the key to the boy’s house?
A. He wanted to have tea there. C. He was treated as a family member. A. 完成 A. The good old days B. 比较 B. A milkman B. He was a respectable person. D. He was fully trusted by the family. C. 销售 C. A milk delivery D. 竞争 D. My childhood 27. What does the underlined word “compete” mean? 28. What is the best title for the passage?
C
Science can't explain the power of pets, but many studies have shown that pets can help lower blood pressure (血压) and raise chances of recovering(恢复) from a heart attack, reduce loneliness and spread good cheer.
Any owner will tell you how much joy a pet brings. For some, an animal provides more comfort than a husband/wife. A study by Karen Allen of the State University of New York measured(测量) stress levels and blood pressure in people - half of them pet owners-while they did 5 minutes of arithmetic (算术) or held a hand in ice water. People completed the tasks alone, with a husband/wife, a close friend or with a pet. People with pets did it best. Those tested with their pets had smaller change in blood pressure and returned most quickly to usual heart beats. With pets in the room, people also made fewer math mistakes. It seems people feel more relaxed around pets, says Allen, who thinks it may be because pets don't tell whether you are right or wrong.【考试结束了英语】
A study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have an effect on your eating habits. Researchers a Northwestern Memorial Hospital spent a year studying 36 fat people and their equally fat dogs on diet-and-exercise programs, a separate(不同的)group of 56 people without pets were put on a diet program. They found people lost about 11 pounds, or 5% of their body weight. Their dogs did even better, losing 12 pounds, more than 15% of their body weight. Dog owners didn't lose any more weight than those without dogs, say researchers, but got more exercise mostly with their dogs and found it worth doing.
29. What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. What pets bring to their owners.
C. People's opinions of keeping pets.
A. They have lower blood pressure. C. They are less nervous. A. people with dogs did more exercise B. dogs lost the same weight as people did C. dogs liked exercise much more than people did D. people without dogs found the program unhelpful
D
A 10-year-old boy decided to study judo(柔道) although he had lost his left arm in a terrible car accident.
The boy began lessons with an old Japanese judo sensei(老师). The boy was doing well, but he couldn't understand why, after three months of training, the master had taught him only one move.
"Sensei," the boy finally said, "shouldn't I be learning more moves?"
"This is the only move you know, but this is the only move you'll ever need to know," the sensei replied.
Not quite understanding, but believing in his teacher, the boy kept training.
Several months later, the sensei took the boy to his first tournament(锦标赛).
Surprising himself, the boy easily won his first two matches. The third match proved to be more difficult, but after some time, his opponent( 对手) became impatient and charged; the boy quickly used his one move to win the match.
Still amazed by his success, the boy was now in the finals.
This time, his opponent was bigger, stronger, and more experienced. For a while, the boy 裁判) was afraid that the boy might get hurt, so he decided to call a timeout. He was about to stop the match when the sensei stopped him.
B. How pets help people calm down. D. Pet's value in medical research. B. They become more patient. D. They are in higher spirits 30. According to Allen, why did the people with pets around do better when facing stressful tasks? 31. The research in the last paragraph reports that _____.
