　　教师点评

　　本文说明了知识的重要性，介绍了一个人学习知识的过程以及获取知识的最佳途径，是一篇可读性较强的文章。

　　1.D。本句承接上文，进一步强调食物的重要性，要有强壮的体魄得吃得好，故选eat。

　　2.C。根据下文，大脑所需要的食物应为knowledge。

　　3.B。按常理一个人在小的时候就开始学习了，所以应用when引导这里的时间状语从句。

　　4.A。小孩对知识的接受主要依靠于他们对事物产生的兴趣，词组be interested in sth 表示“对……感兴趣”，而interesting用来形容令人感兴趣的事物，故选择interested。

　　5.B。孩子们在耳听眼观的过程中经常会学到一些东西。everything过于绝对化 ，nothing、anything 不合文意，应选 something。

　　6.B。随着年龄的增长，孩子们开始read各类书籍而不是write，learn在这里搭配不当。

　　7.A。孩子们在学习过程中发现问题时，由于求知的欲望，应尽力去解决问题，故选择try。

　　8.C。本段主要就学习方法展开讨论，该句应为总括句，空白处当然应填入ways。

　　9.D。与后面的方法比起来，作者认为独立自主的学习为最佳方法，最佳方法当然应使人获得最多的知识，故选择the most。

　　10.B。be always doing sth 意为“总是干某事”。
