1 . 请阅读 Amy 在她的个人主页上写的一篇日志,根据所提供的信息,回答下列问题。

A few days ago, I was walking down the street when I met a group of students in uniforms. I was shocked to see that the girls’ skirts were very short and they were wearing a lot of make-up. The boys looked very untidy. Their shirts were dirty and some of them even had their shirt fronts open. I noticed that some of the students had their ears and noses pierced, which should not be allowed at school. And the other day, I was on the subway when I saw some boys wearing uniforms of the same local school. Instead of sitting quietly, these boys kept making noises and saying dirty words. All the other passengers were looking at them and wondering how it was possible for students like these boys. They were really showing a bad image （形象）of their school, which was shameful. I am a mother of two teenagers of the same school. After seeing those boys and girls, I am worried if my children also behave like this. I don’t know about it. Do students in this school know what is allowed when they are wearing the school uniforms ? I think the school should be stricter with the students. And I think all the students should be taught how to be polite.

Students learn their lessons in class. They sit in the classroom    1     to the teacher. This is a way of learning. Is this the    2     way for students to learn? Of course not. There is another way to learn. That is, students can teach themselves. For     3     , if you cannot remember something when you are doing your homework, what will you do? You can look at your book to     4     the answer.

How to teach yourself? The first thing you must do is reading. Read something you are     5     in, or you have to read. The second is that you must ask yourself questions. A clever student is usually    6     at asking questions. The third is to answer the questions yourself by     7     hard, by reading books, and sometimes by asking     8     people. These are the ways of teaching yourself. If you keep doing    9     these for a long time, you are sure to have great    10     in your study.
