“Oh, dear! I can hardly remember the first time we ate at this restaurant,” said Sari Hausler to her husband.
“I can.” said their son Jake, “January 19th, 2018. It was a Saturday night.”
Jake is only fifteen years old. However, he has better memories than most people would have in ten lifetimes. He remembers the results of every football game he has watched. Gracie, their pet dog, he says, has hit (打) him with her tail 31 times. He can also tell you where every item (商品)in the nearby supermarket is.
But it’s not always a good thing. For example, Jake can’t forget the mistakes he’s made. ________ Another problem is that Jake’s teachers don’t like him. They call the boy a “know-it-all”. In class, when the teacher asks about a fact, Jake is always the first to give the answer. “I try to keep quiet. However, sometimes I just can’t help but do it.” the boy says.
Although remembering so much information brings him trouble, Jake likes his superpower. “A super memory is cool, isn’t it?” he says.
36. What can Jake NOT remember?
A. When his parents first met each other.
B. Where every item in the nearby supermarket is.
C. How many times Gracie has hit him.
D. What mistakes he has ever made before.
37. Which sentence can be put in ________.

B. He feels sorry about them and often gets unhappy.
C. He doesn’t know why he always makes so many mistakes.
D. While he can’t remember good things he did.
38. What can we learn from the passage?

B. It might be very hard for Jake to forget bad memories.
C. Jake’s teachers dislike him because he knows more than them.
D. Jake sometimes has a poor memory and needs others’ help.

【答案】36. A 37. B 38. B 39. D 40. C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了15岁的Jake拥有超强记忆力,能记住很多细节,但也忘不了自己犯的错,这让他被老师当作“万事通”而不被喜欢;尽管超强记忆带来了麻烦,Jake仍觉得这项能力很酷。
【36题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Gracie, their pet dog, he says, has hit (打) him with her tail 31 times”可知Jake记得宠物狗尾巴打他的次数,“He can also tell you where every item(商品) in the nearby supermarket is.”Jake记得超市商品的位置,“Jake can’t forget the mistakes he’s made.”Jake记得他曾经犯过的错误,只有A选项“父母第一次见面的时间”没有提到。故选A。
【37题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Jake can’t forget the mistakes he’s made. ”和“Jake’s teachers don’t like him”,可推断“他总记着这些错误,经常感到不开心”,这既承接了“忘不了错误”的内容,也能引出后文“老师不喜欢他”的问题。故选B。
【38题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Jake can’t forget the mistakes he’s made”可知他很难忘记不好的记忆,故选B。
【39题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Although remembering so much information brings him trouble, Jake likes his superpower. ‘A super memory is cool, isn’t it?’ ”可知,他认为这项能力“麻烦但很酷”。故选D。
【40题详解】
主旨大意题。文章围绕15岁男孩Jake的“超强记忆力”展开,介绍了这项能力的表现、带来的影响。故选C。
C
Can you imagine building a house with your own sweat (汗), tears and even blood? This is what astronauts might do on Mars in the future.
Scientists at the University of Manchester, UK, have made a new type of brick (砖块). It is made from human blood, urine (尿液), sweat, tears and simulated Mars soil (模拟火星土). The protein (蛋白质) from human bodies is like the “glue”. It holds the soil together. Scientists say it’s 300 percent stronger than bricks we use today.
Why do we need to do this? Well if we want to build houses on Mars, we need lots of bricks. But it costs 13 million yuan to send just one brick to Mars. So scientists are thinking: maybe we could use something in our bodies!
Scientists say that six astronauts could make 500 kilograms of such bricks in just two years. Later they can build bigger houses for more astronauts to go there and live. Together, they can build even more houses!

Can you imagine building a house with your own sweat (汗), tears and even blood? This is what astronauts might do on Mars in the future.
Scientists at the University of Manchester, UK, have made a new type of brick (砖块). It is made from human blood, urine (尿液), sweat, tears and simulated Mars soil (模拟火星土).
