本文阐述了我们在学校不仅仅要学好各门功课，更重要的是要学会如何去学习。有了好的学习方法，我们在离开学校时才能去自学更多的知识，解决人生道路上的各个疑难。
答案简析
1．Ｂ。强调说话的内容只能用say。
2．Ｃ。other subjects指“别的一些功课”，而the other subjects指“别的所有的功课”。根据文意，应选择后者。
3．Ａ。很显然，上文提到的内容也是学习的目的之一，完全正确，故选择true。
4．Ｃ。该句起引起下文的作用，而下文主要解释为什么要学习，故选择why。
5．Ｄ。prepare sb for sth是固定搭配，意思是“使某人为某事作好准备”。
6．Ｂ。in one’s life是一个常用短语，意思是“在某人的一生中”。
7．Ｂ。上文提到在学校学习的目的之一是要多学知识，从下文可以得知这并不是唯一的目的，故选only。

11．Ｂ。形容词修饰不定代词应后置，故排除Ｃ、Ｄ两项。根据句子意思，应选B。
12．Ｄ。on the other hand是一个常用短语，意思是“在另一方面”。

答案简析
1．C。格陵兰岛位于欧洲北部。这需要有一定的地理常识，下文并无提示。
2．B。
3．A。如果你只从字面上看，认为Greenland是绿色的，而 Iceland被许多冰所覆盖，那么你就想错了。根据下文可知它们的地理特征并不像它们的名字所描述的那样。
4．B。There must be more people…表示肯定猜测，而如果直接用There are more people则太绝对化了。
5．D。根据下文得知格陵兰岛大部分地区被冰所覆盖，所以是白色的。
6．D。格陵兰岛的冰比世界最高的楼高。故选high的比较级 higher。
7．C。What about Iceland? 意为“冰岛(的地理环境和气候)又怎样呢?”。
8．A。not so…as…表示“不如……”。
9．B。因为冰岛拥有很多的温泉，冰也没有格陵兰岛的多，所以气温就没有格陵兰岛低。
