阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
Education isn’t all about classrooms. Homework plays a huge role in student learning. Given how much time we spend studying in a lifetime, and how hard it is to find time to study, techniques that make studying more efficient ─ that is, techniques that allow you to learn more in the same amount of time ─ can be incredibly valuable.
One of the most important study techniques that you don’t know about is this: Space your studying.
What does that mean? If you are going to study something twice (or more), try to let as much time pass as possible between the first and second time you study. For example, don’t read your textbook chapter and then review it on the same day. Study it and then review it on a different day, and allow as much time to pass between the two study sessions as possible. Better yet, spread your studying across numerous days. You don’t necessarily have to study more, you just have to distribute your study time differently. When you sit down to study, mix up your topics ─ instead of studying one topic per day, study every topic a little bit every day.
My research team had a combined 50 years experience studying the spacing effect. We should have known better, because our prediction couldn’t have been more wrong. Spacing helped enormously.
Spacing gives you time to forget. This forgetting is a good thing; forgetting is the friend of learning. But forgetting can make you feel like you are not learning. On the other hand, re-studying something right away makes it seem easy to remember. Unfortunately, this makes people feel that spacing hinders learning.
Your intuition (直觉) will tell you that spacing is a terrible idea. And your intuition will be wrong. Don’t trust it. Trust the scientific evidence.
1. The first paragraph mainly wants to tell us .
A. education isn’t all about classrooms
B. homework plays a huge role in student learning
C. it’s hard to find time to study
D. learning techniques can be of great value
2. The technique “Space your studying” means .
A. trying to studying something as many times as possible
B. allowing as much time to pass between the twice (or more) as you can
C. not doing the same thing on the same day
D. studying more and distributing your study time differently
3. The underlined word “enormously” in Paragraph 4 can be replaced by .
A. greatlyB. differentlyC. hopefully D. unforgettably
4. Why will your intuition tell you that spacing is a terrible idea?
A. Because spacing gives you time to forget.
B. Because forgetting is the friend of learning.
C. Because spacing can make you feel like you are not learning.
D. Because your intuition will be wrong.

According to historical documents, the forefathers of the Naxi people were closely related to a tribe called “Maoniu Yi” in the Han Dynasty，“Maoniu Yi” in the Jin Dynasty and “Moxie Yi” in the Tang Dynasty.Between the early 10th century and the middle of the 13th century, production in the Lijiang area experienced marked changes, as agriculture replaced livestock (家畜)breeding as the main occupation of the people. Scores of agricultural, handicraft, mineral and livestock products were turned out, and the country presented a picture of prosperity. During that period, a number of slaveowning groups in Ninglang，Lijiang and Weixi counties gradually grew into a feudal manorial lord caste(世袭封建庄园领主制)．
In 1278 the Yuan Dynasty established
Lijiang Prefecture(自治州)representing the imperial court in Yunnan Province. This resulted in closer links between the Lijiang area and the centre of the empire.
In the early Ming Dynasty, the leader of the Naxi people，named Mude, was made chief of Lijiang Prefecture, exercising control over the Naxi and other ethnic groups nearby. Throughout the Ming Dynasty, the chiefs from the Mu family kept taxes and tribute(贡品)flowing to the Ming court in the form of silver and grain. The Ming, in turn, relied on the Mu family as the mainstay for the control of the people of various ethnic groups in northwestern Yunnan Province.
Later, with the development of the productive forces, buying, selling and renting of land began to take place in the Naxi areas，marking the beginning of a landlord economy.
