三、跨学科 历史时间轴制作方法阅读理解(12分)
History can be an interesting subject for many students. And History is also a collection of stories. Learning History can help us better understand the present and make us wiser. If you have trouble in matching the event in History and its time in your mind, a timeline will be a good helper. Here are some suggestions to help you make a timeline.
Firstly, make a list of important dates. Find key dates from your reading materials and class notes. And then make a list with dates in time order.
Secondly, organize your timeline on paper. Draw a straight line with dates from the oldest to the latest. Then draw a box under each date and begin filling it with the key information you need to remember. Make sure it includes information such as important people, events and places.
Thirdly, move forward in time. Continue filling in your dates in your timeline along with descriptions of what happened and why they are important. Make notes of connections among events, people and places as you go by drawing arrows(箭头). Use different colours to make the timeline visually(视觉上的)memorable. This can also help you quickly find important names, themes or other key terms that appear in your timeline.
Fourthly, test yourself. Once you have finished your timeline, put it away and try to recreate a new timeline. This will tell you what you really know. If you don't get everything right for the first time, you will know what history information you need to keep in mind.

答案： 1. C ［解析］句意猜测题。根据上文“If you have trouble in matching the event in history and its time in your mind”可知，如果你在记忆历史事件和其发生时间上有困难，时间轴会是个好帮手；据此可以推断，画线部分“a timeline will be a good helper”的意思是时间轴能帮助你记住历史事件。故选C。
2. A ［解析］推理判断题。根据第三段“Draw a straight line with dates from the oldest to the latest. Then draw a box under each date and begin filling it with the key information you need to remember. Make sure it includes information such as important people，events and places.”可知，在纸上整理你的时间轴，标注从最早到最晚的日期，开始填入你需要记住的关键信息，如重要的文物、事件和地点等信息。所以图片上面应该有按时间顺序排列的日期，框里有相关信息。选项A图符合题意。故选A。
3. D ［解析］推理判断题。根据最后一段“Once you have finished your timeline，put it away and try to recreate a new timeline. This will tell you what you really know. If you don't get everything right for the first time，you will know what history information you need to keep in mind.”可知，重新创建时间轴可以让你知道自己真正记住了什么。所以作者认为重新创建时间轴是有用的。故选D。
4. B ［解析］推理判断题。文章主要通过“Firstly… Secondly… Thirdly… Fourthly…”列举了制作时间轴的步骤，如列出重要日期、在纸上组织时间轴、按时间顺序填充信息、测试自己等，所以本文是通过列出制作时间轴的过程来呈现文章的。故选B。
