高三英语培优外刊阅读 班级：____________学号：____________姓名：____________ 外刊精选｜你有多久没有提笔写字了？新研究：好键盘不如烂笔头 GoodNotes、Notability等手写笔记软件近些年正风靡全球，日前有研究表明，“用手写字”比“用键盘打字”更能锻炼我们的大脑，有助于增强大脑的连通性，提升大脑功能。以“手写”为代表的“动手活动”为什么值得现代人重视？“多动手”究竟对我们有哪些益处？ Working With Your Hands Is Good for Your Brain The human hand is a marvel of nature. No other creature on Earth, not even our closest primate relatives, has hands structured quite like ours, capable of such precise grasping and manipulation. But we're doing less intricate hands-on work than we used to. A lot of modern life involves simple movements, such as tapping screens and pushing buttons. In some of her research on animals, Kelly Lambert, a professor of behavioral neuroscience at the University of Richmond, and her colleagues found that rats that used their paws to dig up food had healthier stress hormone profiles and were better at problem solving compared with rats that were given food without having to dig. She sees some similarities in studies on people, which have found that a whole range of hands-on activities — such as knitting, gardening and coloring — are associated with cognitive and emotional benefits. In a small study of university students published in January, Norwegian researchers compared the neurological effects of writing by hand with typing on a keyboard. Handwriting was associated with "far more elaborate" brain activity than keyboard writing, the researchers found. "You know, we evolved in a three-dimensional world, and we evolved to interact with that world through our hands," Dr. Lambert said. "I think there are a lot of reasons why working with our hands may be prosperous for our brains." 【词汇过关】 请写出下面文单词在文章中的中文意思。 1.grasp (v./n.) _____________________________________ 2.intricate (adj.) _____________________________________ 3.hands-on (adj.) _____________________________________ 4.elaborate (v./adj.) _____________________________________ 5.prosperous (adj.) _____________________________________ 6.intricate (adj.) _____________________________________ 7.knit (v.) _____________________________________ 8.cognitive (adj.) _____________________________________ 【词块学习】 请从文章中找到下面中文相对应的文词块。 1._____________________________________.的奇迹 2._____________________________________ 挖出，发掘 3._____________________________________在...之间看到相似之处 4._____________________________________一系列的（某物） 5._____________________________________你知道的 6._____________________________________与...相关联 7._____________________________________与...互动 拓展练习阅读理解 On a cold morning in May, I received a fascinating email from a high school friend. inviting me to a 10-day all-female surfing adventure in Portugal. The offer was irresistible, and I instantly knew my answer was yes. The trip seemed simple enough. Ten women, ranging from 30 to 45 years old, all strangers, will gather on the Portuguese coast to embrace the challenge of surfing the Atlantic waves. As a travel enthusiast, I quickly sought permission from my boss for this once-in-a- lifetime journey. Through my 33 years, I’ve observed a common adult tendency: we often limit ourselves to refining skills we already possess. There’s a certain pride in improving our expertise, becoming increasingly knowledgeable in our chosen fields, yet unintentionally, this focus often leaves other skills undeveloped and leads to neglecting other areas of potential growth. Two days later, I arrived in Ericeira, a charming surf town, where I met my surfing group. Despite our different personalities and backgrounds, we were all united in a persistent desire to challenge ourselves, learn, tackle and grow. The shores at Ericeira, where the beginners learn to surf, are shallow and covered with slippery rocks. They make for softer waves but are difficult to navigate (驾驭). Guided by our amazing coaches, together, we faced the waves. Sometimes, it poured with rain, and the waves crashed around us, but we were still out there. And with every slip and fall, words of encouragement filled the air. Honestly, I probably spent most of my days frozen to the bone, but that didn’t matter because a new level of genuine joy and personal achievement had been unlocked. Learning a new skill taught me the humbleness that can come from doing badly at something new, and the pride that develops when you finally manage to grasp something you’ve been working on. While surfing might not be my calling, trying it out inspired me to take more risks in life, to step outside of my comfort zone and to never stop believing in myself. You never know what you’re capable of if you don’t go out there and try. 29．Why did the writer decide to go on a surfing trip to Portugal? A．To get better at skills they already had. B．To complete some work tasks in Portugal. C．To face a new challenge and pick up a new skill. D．To reconnect with an old friend from high school. 30．How does the writer feel about adults concentrating on just one area of expertise? A．It limits one’s skills. B．It’s crucial for doing well in one’s career. C．It encourages creativity and exploration. D．It messes with balancing work and personal life. 31．Which of the following words best describe the writer’s experience with surfing? A．Calming but unforeseeable. B．Demanding and annoying C．Challenging but fulfilling. D．Dull and uneventful. 32．What insight did the writer get from her surfing adventure? A．The significance of specializing in one particular area. B．The advantages of traveling with people you don’t know. C．The necessity of getting formal training for all new abilities. D．The importance of stretching your boundaries and experimenting. 外刊精选答案 【词汇过关】 请写出下面文单词在文章中的中文意思。 1.grasp (v./n.) 抓住，理解（也可作名词表示“抓握”） 2.intricate (adj.) 复杂的 3.hands-on (adj.) 亲自的，实践的 4.elaborate (v./adj.) 详尽阐述（动词）；复杂的（形容词） 5.prosperous (adj.) 繁荣的 6.intricate (adj.) 复杂的 7.knit (v.) 编织，结合 8.cognitive (adj.) 认知的 【词块学习】 请从文章中找到下面中文相对应的文词块。 1.a marvel of ...的奇迹 2.dig up 挖出，发掘 3.see similarities (between) 在...之间看到相似之处 4.a whole range of (something) 一系列的（某物） 5.you know 你知道的 6.be associated with 与...相关联 7.interact with 与...互动 【全文翻译】 动手做事有益大脑 人类之手是大自然的奇迹。地球上没有其他生物（哪怕是和我们关系最近的灵长类生物），拥有和人类构造近似的手，并具备如此精准的抓握能力和控制能力。 但是我们现在亲自动手做的精细工作比以前少了。现代生活中大都是简单的动作，比如点击屏幕和按下按钮。 里士满大学行为神经科学教授凯利·兰伯特（Kelly Lambert）和她的同事，通过动物研究发现，用爪子刨食物的老鼠，与被喂给食物而无需刨食物的老鼠相比，体内应激激素水平更健康，解决问题的能力也更强。 她在对人类进行的研究中发现了一些相似之处，这些研究表明，编织、园艺和涂色等各种各样的动手活动，都对提升认知和情绪大有裨益。 今年一月份发表的一份针对大学生的小型研究中，挪威研究人员比较了用手写字和用键盘打字对神经系统产生的不同影响。研究人员发现，比起用键盘打字，用手写字所关联的大脑活动要“复杂得多”。 “要知道，我们在一个三维的世界中进化，得益于进化，我们可以通过双手与这个世界互动。”兰伯特博士说，“我认为有很多原因可以解释为什么动手做事可以让我们的大脑充满活力。” 拓展练习阅读理解 29．C 30．A 31．C 32．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，文章主要讲述了作者通过葡萄牙的冲浪之旅，感悟到了突破极限和尝试新事物的价值。 29．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Ten women, ranging from 30 to 45 years old, all strangers, will gather on the Portuguese coast to embrace the challenge of surfing the Atlantic waves.(十位年龄从30岁到45岁不等的陌生女性将聚集在葡萄牙海岸，迎接在大西洋海浪中冲浪的挑战。)”和文章倒数第二段“Learning a new skill taught me the humbleness that can come from doing badly at something new, and the pride that develops when you finally manage to grasp something you’ve been working on.(学习一项新技能教会了我在新事物上做得不好时的谦卑，以及当你最终掌握了你一直在做的事情时产生的自豪感。)”可知，接受挑战和学习新技能的愿望促使作者加入了葡萄牙的冲浪之旅。故选C。 30．推理判断题。根据文章第四段“There’s a certain pride in improving our expertise, becoming increasingly knowledgeable in our chosen fields, yet unintentionally, this focus often leaves other skills undeveloped and leads to neglecting other areas of potential growth.(提高我们的专业知识，在我们选择的领域变得越来越有知识，这是一种自豪感，但无意中，这种关注往往使其他技能得不到发展，导致忽视其他潜在的增长领域。)”可知，作者对成年人专注于掌握一个领域的看法是，这缩小了一个人的能力。故选A。 31．推理判断题。根据文章第七段“Guided by our amazing coaches, together, we faced the waves. Sometimes, it poured with rain, and the waves crashed around us, but we were still out there. And with every slip and fall, words of encouragement filled the air.(在我们出色的教练的带领下，我们一起面对海浪。有时，下着大雨，海浪在我们周围拍打，但我们仍然在那里。每一次滑倒，空气中都充满了鼓励的话语。)”和文章第八段“Honestly, I probably spent most of my days frozen to the bone, but that didn’t matter because a new level of genuine joy and personal achievement had been unlocked.(说实话，我可能大部分时间都冻得骨头都僵了，但这并不重要，因为真正的快乐和个人成就的新水平已经被解锁了。)”可知，作者的冲浪经历很具有挑战性，但很值得。故选C。 32．细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“Learning a new skill taught me the humbleness that can come from doing badly at something new, and the pride that develops when you finally manage to grasp something you’ve been working on..(学习一项新技能教会了我在新事物上做得不好时的谦卑，以及当你最终掌握了你一直在做的事情时产生的自豪感。)”和文章最后一段“You never know what you’re capable of if you don’t go out there and try.(如果你不去尝试，你永远不知道你能做什么。)”可推知，作者从冲浪经历中获得的智慧是突破极限和尝试新事物的价值。故选D。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
