  Section C
  Directions: In this section, you will hear a passage three times. When the passage is read for the first time, you should listen carefully for its general idea. When the passage is read for the second time, you are required to fill in the blanks numbered from 36 to 43 with the exact words you have just heard. For blanks numbered from 44 to 46 you are required to fill in the missing information. For these blanks, you can either use the exact words you have just heard or write down the main points in your own words. Finally, when the passage is read for the third time, you should check what you have written。
  Chinese students are (36) generally willing to study very hard for long hours. This is an excellent (37) characteristic, but it is often an inefficient method of study. An efficient student must have enough food, rest and (38) relaxation. You need to play ball, or sing a song, or go out with friends, see a movie, or visit some (39) scenic spots. When you return to your studies your mind will be (40) refreshed and you’ll learn more. Shorter, more intense study (41) sessions are more (42)effective than endless hours (43) nodding over your books。
  Finally, be realistic. (44) If you set impossible goals for yourself you can only be disappointed in your progress. Psychologists have determined that learning takes place this way: First, you make a lot of progress and you feel very happy. Then your language ability seems to stay the same; (45) this period can last for days or even weeks. But you mustn’t be discouraged. Perhaps we can say that learning English is like taking Chinese medicine. We don’t mean that it’s bitter. We mean that, (46) like Chinese medicine, the effects of your study come slowly but surely. So, don’t give up along the way。
