六、阅读与回答问题(本题共5小题；每小题2分, 满分10分)

请认真阅读下面短文, 并根据短文内容回答问题。

It is important to have good learning habits if you want to study well, and this is especially true when it comes to online learning.

Online learning is a process different from what you can find in a traditional school. The learning environment and methods are different.

When studying in a classroom, there is a lot of communication between the students and the teacher, but little interaction(互动) among the students, while online learning helps one student and another to interact very seriously and closely. So one of an online professor’s roles is to encourage(鼓励) students to interact. Another is to guide the discussion but not to take total control(控制) of students’ thoughts as teachers do in a classroom.

So what are the good learning habits you should have in online learning? Here are some good suggestions. First, it is a good idea to prepare well for online learning. You can write down daily tasks and even weekly tasks that you want to finish. By doing so, you will have a good plan for achieving your goals. Second, you should spend as much time online as if you were going to regular courses. Also, always try to set aside extra time to communicate with other students.

Besides these, any post you put up online shows who you are. So make sure that your homework is finished on time so that you don’t fall behind.

71．What is important if you want to study online?

72．What is the advantage(优势) of online learning?

73．What is the other role of an online professor besides guiding the discussion?

74．How many good suggestions(建议) about good learning habits are there in the passage?

75．How do you like online learning?(请自拟一句话作答)

七、书面表达(本题满分25分)
