Then Dug went back int the hallway and std there lking straight up at the light. This was really strange. Cait didn’t knw what t d.

The truth is that nt all sleepwalkers walk. Sme simply sit up r stand in bed r act like they’re awake when, in fact, they’re asleep! Mst, hwever, d get up and walk arund fr a few secnds r fr as lng as half an hur.
Sleepwalkers’ eyes are pen, but they dn’t see the same way they d when they’re awake They tend t g back t bed n their wn and wn’t remember it in the mrning.
Yu als might have heard that sleepwalkers can get frightened if yu wake them up. That’s true, s what d yu d if yu see smene sleepwalking? Yu shuld call fr a grwn-up wh can lead the persn back t bed. And nce the sleepwalker is tucked back in bed, it’s time fr yu t get sme sleep, t!

Nte-taking is a skill that can help yu d well in all yur schlwrk—
everything frm taking tests t researching a paper. But unfrtunately, mst schls dn’t have classes that teach yu hw t take ntes. S here are sme tips.
Write dwn key facts. If yu have a teacher wh writes ntes n the bard, that’s gd: Yu can cpy them dwn. If nt, write dwn the mst imprtant pints frm class. Des yur histry teacher mentin the date f a key Civil War battle? Des yur English teacher give examples f Shakespeare’s use f irny(讽刺)? Write them dwn!
Different teachers d things differently. Fr example, sme teachers may mentin lts f dates and facts in class but nly write the key nes n the bard. Other teachers may nt write anything dwn, but they may repeat a certain date r a piece f infrmatin. After a while, yu’ll get t knw a teacher’s style.
Dn’t verd it. Dn’t g crazy taking ntes. Yu’ll be frantic(慌乱的) if yu try t write dwn every wrd that’s said in class. And if yu fcus t much n getting yur ntes right, yu might miss imprtant pints. Sme peple actually learn better by listening, writing dwn a few key pints, and then ging ver the material after class.
Ask. Dn’t be afraid t ask the teacher t repeat smething yu miss. If the teacher is ging t fast, yur classmates will als be happy t hear the infrmatin again. If yu dn’t want t ask in class, see yur teacher afterwards. It’s much easier than wndering if yu gt the ntes right as yu study.
Cmpare. Keep yur ntes handy when yu’re ding yur reading hmewrk. Cmpare what yu wrte with what the reading says—yu may even want t add t yur ntes as yu read.
32. What’s an advantage f nte-taking accrding t the writer?
A.It’s a basic skill in researching a paper.
B. It helps yu t get gd marks in tests.
C. It helps fix yur mind n what the teacher says.
D. It gives yu a better understanding f key facts.
33. Why is Shakespeare mentined in the passage?
A. T intrduce the tpic f nte-taking.
B. T cmpare writing styles in different times.
C. T explain what a key fact is in a teacher’s class.
D.T give an example f frming gd habits.
34. What is suggested in the third paragraph?
A. A teacher’s style shuld be taken int cnsideratin when taking ntes.
B. It’s helpful fr teachers t learn frm each ther in styles.
C. It’s nt always pssible t nte dwn all infrmatin in class.

I was sure everyne in my junir-high drama class saw the paper in my hands shaking when I std up t auditin fr a lead rle in the annual Christmas play. I was there, nt by chice, but because teacher Alice wanted each f us t try ut fr a part.
As a “gd” student, I did what I was asked, even if it was scary. I was small fr my age, wre secndhand clthes and cried easily. At schl, I was ften the bject f jkes and laughter and had few friends. I wanted desperately t shrink back int my seat and be invisible. But there I was, n stage. Reading was, at least, smething I lved. S, I read.
I finished reading and rushed back t my seat. The spell was brken. I wanted t curl up and disappear. When the teacher read the cast list and called my name, I wasn’t paying attentin. N ne ever chse me fr anything.
“Patty,” she repeated, “yu are Star. Cme and get yur script.”
This is impssible! Hw can it be? With a punding heart and cld, sweaty hands, I felt nearly dizzy, but incredibly happy. I walked up unsteadily t get the papers. On returning t my desk, I felt regretful. I shuld have refused. I felt as if everyne else were lking at and laughing at me. I buried my head in my arms. Gently patting my shulder, teacher Alice said, “Be cnfident, Patty. Yu can d this. I knw yu can. I’ll help yu.” With tears in my eyes, I raised my head and ndded firmly.
S, I practiced every day — while walking t schl, at lunchtime, befre bedtime, even n weekends. At first, I was wrried abut frgetting parts f a lng mnlgue that tk place in ne scene, but I managed t memrize it. I felt mre cnfident after that. At last, it was the day fr the shw.

Nte-taking is a skill that can help yu d well in all yur schlwrk—
everything frm taking tests t researching a paper. But unfrtunately, mst schls dn’t have classes that teach yu hw t take ntes. S here are sme tips.
Write dwn key facts. If yu have a teacher wh writes ntes n the bard, that’s gd: Yu can cpy them dwn. If nt, write dwn the mst imprtant pints frm class. Des yur histry teacher mentin the date f a key Civil War battle? Des yur English teacher give examples f Shakespeare’s use f irny(讽刺)? Write them dwn!
Different teachers d things differently. Fr example, sme teachers may mentin lts f dates and facts in class but nly write the key nes n the bard. Other teachers may nt write anything dwn, but they may repeat a certain date r a piece f infrmatin. After a while, yu’ll get t knw a teacher’s style.
Dn’t verd it. Dn’t g crazy taking ntes. Yu’ll be frantic(慌乱的) if yu try t write dwn every wrd that’s said in class. And if yu fcus t much n getting yur ntes right, yu might miss imprtant pints. Sme peple actually learn better by listening, writing dwn a few key pints, and then ging ver the material after class.
Ask. Dn’t be afraid t ask the teacher t repeat smething yu miss. If the teacher is ging t fast, yur classmates will als be happy t hear the infrmatin again. If yu dn’t want t ask in class, see yur teacher afterwards. It’s much easier than wndering if yu gt the ntes right as yu study.
Cmpare. Keep yur ntes handy when yu’re ding yur reading hmewrk. Cmpare what yu wrte with what the reading says—yu may even want t add t yur ntes as yu read.
32. What’s an advantage f nte-taking accrding t the writer?
A.It’s a basic skill in researching a paper.
B. It helps yu t get gd marks in tests.
C. It helps fix yur mind n what the teacher says.
D. It gives yu a better understanding f key facts.

A. T intrduce the tpic f nte-taking.
B. T cmpare writing styles in different times.
C. T explain what a key fact is in a teacher’s class.
D.T give an example f frming gd habits.
34. What is suggested in the third paragraph?

I was sure everyne in my junir-high drama class saw the paper in my hands shaking when I std up t auditin fr a lead rle in the annual Christmas play. I was there, nt by chice, but because teacher Alice wanted each f us t try ut fr a part.
As a “gd” student, I did what I was asked, even if it was scary. I was small fr my age, wre secndhand clthes and cried easily. At schl, I was ften the bject f jkes and laughter and had few friends. I wanted desperately t shrink back int my seat and be invisible. But there I was, n stage. Reading was, at least, smething I lved. S, I read.
I finished reading and rushed back t my seat. The spell was brken. I wanted t curl up and disappear. When the teacher read the cast list and called my name, I wasn’t paying attentin. N ne ever chse me fr anything.
“Patty,” she repeated, “yu are Star. Cme and get yur script.”
This is impssible! Hw can it be? With a punding heart and cld, sweaty hands, I felt nearly dizzy, but incredibly happy. I walked up unsteadily t get the papers. On returning t my desk, I felt regretful. I shuld have refused. I felt as if everyne else were lking at and laughing at me. I buried my head in my arms. Gently patting my shulder, teacher Alice said, “Be cnfident, Patty. Yu can d this. I knw yu can. I’ll help yu.” With tears in my eyes, I raised my head and ndded firmly.
S, I practiced every day — while walking t schl, at lunchtime, befre bedtime, even n weekends. At first, I was wrried abut frgetting parts f a lng mnlgue that tk place in ne scene, but I managed t memrize it. I felt mre cnfident after that. At last, it was the day fr the shw.
