Much meaning can be carried, clearly, with our eyes, so it is often said that eyes can speak. Do you have such kind of experience? In a bus you may look at a stranger, but not too long. And if he notices that he is being stared at, he may feel uncomfortable.
The same in daily life! If you are looked at for more than necessary, you will look at yourself up and down, to see if there is anything wrong with you. If nothing goes wrong, you will feel angry toward others’ stare（盯着）with you that way. Eyes do speak, right?
Looking too long at someone may seem to be impolite or even rude. But things are different when it comes to stare at the opposite sex. If a man look at a woman for more than 10 seconds and refuses to turn away from his looking, his purpose is obvious, that is, he wishes to attract her attention, to make her understand that he is admiring her.
However, the normal eye contact for two people during a conversation is that the speaker will only look at the listener from time to time, in order to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what his friend is speaking, to tell him that he is interested.
If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking, as if he tries to control you, you will feel uncomfortable. We usually find a poor liar（说谎者）looking too long at the victim, because he believes that it is a sign of honest communication to look straight in the eye. Totally wrong!
In fact, continuous eye contact only happens between lovers, who will enjoy looking at each other gently for a long time, to show feelings that words cannot express. Obviously, eye contact should be done according to the relationship between two people and the proper situation.

Eyes can speak
In our 小题1: life	A lot of feeling can be 小题2: to others with our eyes. There are a lot of facts to prove it. You may not feel very well when you are 小题3: at more than often. This time it will make you 小题4: and you will wonder whether there’s something wrong. If not, you’ll be really angry.
When you look too long at the 小题5: sex	Looking too long at a girl you 小题6: means you wish to attract her attention. And most of the time, continuous eyes contacting is just for小题7: .
When you have a 小题8: with someone	If a speaker looks at the listeners at 小题9: , it is a kind of 小题10: eye contact.
So remember to look at your partner at the right time. If not, it will make others uncomfortable.

阅读下面短文，根据所读内容，在文章后小题的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
注意：每个空格只填一个单词。
Improve Homework Habits
Do you want to make homework simpler? It can be done readily with a little guidance from specialists (专家) in this field. Oxford Learning founder and CEO Dr. Nick Whitehead, said that homework doesn’t always have to be a headache. “Homework might be an unavoidable (不可避免的) part of school, but it doesn’t have to be the boring part. With the right skills in place, students can turn homework from headache-including to trouble-free.” These steps will make an obvious difference.
Use your notebooks
The brain is able to finish great works, but it is not perfect. Students should never rely on (依赖) it to remember all school details. When a teacher assigns homework, students should write the details in their notebooks. Many schools provide notebooks because they are the best organizational tools available.
According to Whitehead, to make them effective, students need to remember to take the notebooks out of their school bags at night, open them up, and read over the night’s list.
Remove distractions (使注意力分散的事物)
Computers on, music on, text messages receiving … this is not multitasking, it’s distracting.
Whitehead says that unless students are doing research, they should turn off all electronics and focus on the task at hand for a set period of time. They’ll find that it is easier to concentrate (全神贯注) and that homework takes less time. He adds that this fact has been confirmed by studies.
Think actively
Getting homework done is the name of the game, but what happens if students are struggling with a question, or can’t work out an answer? When facing difficulties, it is wise for the student to take a small break then return to look at the problem again.
According to Whitehead, students should look up their textbooks and school notes, take a step back to ask what the particular unit is all about, and even move ahead a few questions and see if the next part can help explain a little better. If not, use the Internet.
“Don’t stare at (盯着) the question; ask how this question relates to what is being learned overall.” he says.
Get organized
Homework is as much a part of daily routine as waking up in the morning and going to bed at night, but it’s often the most disorganized part. Whitehead recommends streamlining (使合理化) the process.
“Students should keep all the homework-related things in a bin or a bucket so they don’t waste time searching for pens or rulers.” He also recommends picking the same place to do homework every night, and (when possible) completing homework at the same time each day.

Improve Homework Habits
As students, homework is an unavoidable part in school, but many students feel 小题1: about homework. The following 小题2: can help students turn homework from headache-including to trouble-free.
Step1: Use your notebooks	Students shouldn’t use brains to remember all school things. 小题3: , they should use notebooks to write the details about 小题4: at school. At home they open them up, and read over the night’s list.

Step3: Think actively	When you have 小题7: in doing your homework, it’s not wise for you to stare at the question. You should take a small break then come 小题8: to look at it again.
Step4: Get organized	Students 小题9: to streamline the process, keep all the homework-related things organized, pick the same place to do homework, and 小题10: homework at the same time each day.
