三．阅读理解（5 x 2分）
Never try to work when you are very hungry. If you want to do your homework right for school, you may want to eat something before getting to work. Always do your homework before you get too tired. Don’t wait until very late in the evening, or the assignment will seem much harder than it really is. Organize（组织）your time into a few parts if you have more than an hour’s work, give yourself a break after an hour. On the other hand, don’t break it up so much that you can’t get anything done. You should be able to work at least half an hour at a time without stopping.
Don’t put it off until the last minute. If you put off doing your homework, you’ll have it on your mind. If you put it off until the end of the week or until right before a test, you will have too much catching up to do. A little bit each night, enough to keep up with what is happening each day in school, will take the fear at tests and keep you on top of it all.
Do your homework at the same time every day. This will help you make it a habit（习惯）--- part of your everyday work. It will make it easier to do, and it will make your free time more enjoyable as well.
51. When someone is hungry, he’d better ___________.
A. not work at all. B. work harder C. not work too hard D. work as usual 52. The underlined word “assignment” means ___________. A. work B. hunger C. housework D. homework
