Q1: Why can I remember events in my childhood but not what happened last week? A1: We remember things that have strong relations in our mind, especially emotional (情绪 的) ones. Childhood memories are often these, because when we experience things for the firs 初二英语第7页(共12页) 一进红 夸克扫描王 极速扫描,就是高效 timc, we oftcn have strong feclings of fear or cxcitement. Also, intcresting or funny childhood stories are oftcn told again and again. As a result, we remember them much better, as retelling events helps fix experiences in our memories. So whcn remembering something new, find its relation to our cmotions, or retell it to others. O2: Do some people really have a photographic memory(过目不忘的记忆)? A2: A person with a photographic mcmory could remember everything of a picture, a book or an event many years later, but no one knows if there is such a kind of person. However, some people do have amazing memories. For cxample, Daniel Tammet can remember the first 22,514 digits of pi (a) and Stephen Wiltshire can draw a detailed picture of a city from memory after flying over it in a plane. They are both good at remembering things. As most of us do not have amazing memories like them, a good way to remember things is to group similar ideas or information together. O3: Why do I for get the new words that I learnt yester day? A3: Don't worry. This is natural for many people. In 1885, Hermann Ebbinghaus showed us a famous forgetting curve(遗 忘 曲 线). According to him, the quickest loss of memory happens during the very early time after learning, and then it gradually (逐渐) slows down. This means that going through what we have learned in time can help us to remember the informatior better. 56. According to the text, a person with photographic memory A. has strong feelings of fear or excitement B. remembers everything of a picture years later C. likes retelling stories to people around him D. forgets what he has learmed quickly 57. Which two words are the best for the mind map of O1 and A.1? A. 1. Reasons: 2. Results B. 1. Reasons: 2. Advice C. 1. Advice: 2. Results D 1. Results: 2. Advice We remember things with strong relations, especially emotional ones, e.g. Childhood memories. Remember childhood Interesting childhood stories are told events but not things again and again. last weck? Find rclations between the new things and emotions. Retell the new things. 58. To remember things better, - is NOT mentioned in the passage A. finding relations between new things and emotions B. grouping similar ideas or intormation together C. going through what we have learned as soon as possible D. drawing a picture of the things we have learned 初二英语第8页(共12页) 一进红 夸克扫描王 极速扫描,就是高效 59. best shows the forgctting curve. { { C A B D V.口语运用。(每小题1分,共5分。) 阅读下面对话,从方框内7个选项中选出5个恰当的句子完成此对话,并把答题卡上 对应题目的答案标号涂黑 A: Hey, Linda!
