【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了牛津大学优秀学生的学

习习惯。

36.选G。根据空前一句中的"Iwenttomaybe4lecturesoutof

hundredsavailable”可推知，作者当时非常懒惰,故选G项。

37.选F。根据该段内容可知，该段主要是讲作者参加课程后自己的

发现和收获，并结合语境可推知，作者参加课程之后想法改变了，故

选F项。

38.选C。根据语境可知，作者对语篇的理解不成熟，也不复杂，它们

保持不变，由此可徵口，它们也常常是错误的，故选C项。

39.选A。根据空处所在位置可知，空处是小标题；根据下文内容可知,

该部分主要是讲学习知识要一块一块地积累，故选A项。

40.选B。根据空前一句可知，当你组织自己的学习内容时，最重要的

任务是确保自己记住已经学过的知识，故B项符合语境。
