Mind Maps
B
Mind maps are a great way of showing a picture of information that you need to learn.
You can use mind maps for all kinds of learning. They work very well for vocabulary
when you are learning a new language.
1 Draw a circle in the middle of the page and write the vocabulary subject in the
middle. For example:
transport
2 Brainstorm some word groups for ‘transport’ and think of headings for each one.
For example:
sea transport
land transport
air transport
For each one, draw a short line from the centre circle outwards. Add another circle
and write the new group word in the middle.
3 Look at each group and try to add more groups. For example, in ‘land transport’
there are two sub-groups;
●road
●rail
Draw two more lines, add two more circles and write the two new headings inside them.
4 When you can’t make any new groups, add a line for each word you know. Write the
words along the lines or, if you have space, write them inside more circles.
5 As you learn new vocabulary, add it to the mind map.
6 To make the mind maps even better, use colour to show important ideas or parts
of the map.
28. The instructions above mainly show us __________.
A. what mind maps are
B. how to draw mind maps
C. what mind maps can do
D. how to make mind maps better
29. What can we learn about mind maps?
A. Mind maps are usually started with a line.
B. Mind maps should be simple, with no colour.
C. A mind map is only used for language learning.
D. A mind map is a picture with useful information.
30. Which of the following shows the right order of making a mind map?
a. Draw a circle in the middle of the page.
b. Add new circles and write the group words ‘sea’, ‘land’ and ‘air’ in them.
c. Write ‘transport’ in the middle of the circle.
d. Brainstorm some word groups for ‘transport’.

Sarah stood in front of the mirror(镜子). “It looks like a raincoat on me,” she
C
said.
“Perhaps the blue,” said Mama, gently.
“Sure,” the shopkeeper said. But when she took the blue coat, there on the shelf
behind all of the dark coats, hidden like a spring flower in winter darkness, there,
as if by magic, was a pink coat.
“A pink coat!” Sarah cried. “I want the pink coat.”
“That coat is smaller than the other ones,” Papa said.
Sarah spoke up. “I’m small, too. Papa, please let me try it on, Mama? Please?”
“It wouldn’t hurt to let her try it on,” Mama said.
Without a word, the shopkeeper took the coat from the shelf and held it for Sarah.
“Ohhh!” Sarah said. The coat was smooth and shiny inside like her sister Sylvia’s
blouses. “Ahhh!”
Sarah stood very straight and looked in the mirror. She looked for a very long time.
In the pink coat she looked like a spring flower.
“Sarah!” Mama said.
Sarah looked up. Mama was standing behind her. She was holding the brown coat.
“I’m afraid the pink coat will only fit one year,” Mama said, taking a step closer.
“And there’s no one to pass it on to,” said Papa.
And the shopkeeper said, “It’s wise to save money.”
Sarah backed away. No one was going to put her into a raincoat again. She wanted
to be a flower.
“Sarah!” It was Papa. He came over to her. “You’re old enough to know that you
can’t always have your own way,” he said seriously.
“Wise and true,” said the shopkeeper.
Sarah took off the pink coat, slowly.
“It is her colour, though,” Mama said.
“Ahh,” said the shopkeeper. “Anyone can see how the pink of the coat brings out
the roses in her face.”
Papa looked thoughtful for a moment.
“We are lucky.” continued Mama, “that it is only one little coat for Sarah and
not also new coats for Sylvia and Susan and Sally.”
Papa looked from the brown coat to the pink coat. “The cows will give milk soon
enough,” he said “And how can we let Sarah wear a brown coat when she looks like
a flower in this one?”
“Papa!” Sarah cried, putting on the pink coat back, quickly. She threw her arms
around Papa’s neck. “
33
” she whispered.
“Like a rose in spring,” Papa said.
31. What did Sarah try on first?
A. A big pink coat.
B. A small pink coat.
C. A big brown coat.
D. A small
brown coat.
32. Why did Mama want Sarah to try brown and blue?
A. Because Sarah looked better in them.
B. Because Sarah could wear them
longer.
C. Because they were big enough for Sarah.
D. Because they cost less than the
pink one.
33. What did Sarah most probably say to Papa in the end?
A. How do I look?
B. How does the coat look?
C. I do look like a flower, don’t I?
D. The coat looks nice, doesn’t
it?
