The Feynman Technique (费曼学习法) was developed by Nobel Prize-winning physicist Richard Feynman. It’s a study method that helps students learn by teaching others.
The Feynman Technique has been one of the most effective (有效的) study methods for many years. For one thing, it helps students really understand something instead of just memorizing information. What’s more, unlike traditional study methods like rereading textbooks or reviewing notes, it pushes students to be more actively involved in the learning process.
If you want to use the Feynman Technique to study better, follow these steps. To begin with, choose a topic you want to learn, including sub-topics (子主题). If not, you’ll end up jumping between topics without developing a deeper understanding of any of them.
The second step is the heart of the Feynman Technique: explaining the topic simply enough to be understood by a sixth-grade student. This requires you to help the child understand by using the simplest and clearest language possible. This step helps divide indigestible topics into their most basic parts.
Next, review your explanation (解释) and try to find any area where you felt that you couldn’t explain the topic simply. When possible, it can be very helpful to get advice from someone whose understanding is similar to that of a sixth-grader, such as your best friend.
The fourth step is to improve your explanation by using the information collected from the third step. Finally, repeat the steps. The Feynman Technique works best with repetition, and that is why going through all the prior (先前的) steps just once is usually not enough to fully understand the topic.
Once you’re confident you’ve learned the topic, it’s time to give yourself a prize. Perhaps, like me, enjoy a nice cup of coffee.
26. Why is the Feynman Technique better than traditional study methods?
A. It saves students’ study time. B. It allows students to study in groups.
C. It encourages students to do active learning. D. It helps students memorize more information.
27. What does the underlined word “indigestible” mean?
A. Big. B. Small. C. Simple. D. Difficult.
28. Who can you get suggestions from according to the third step?
A. Your parents. B. Your teachers. C. A 12-year-old girl. D. Your classmates.
29. Which of the following is the correct order for the Feynman Technique?
①Pick a topic to learn. ② Improve the weak areas.
③Explain it in simplest words. ④ Repeat the steps until you really learn it.
⑤ Find the “imperfect part” of your explanation.
A. ①→③→⑤→②→④ B. ①→⑤→②→③→④
C. ⑤→②→①→③→④ D. ③→⑤→②→④→①
30. In which part of a magazine can we most probably find this passage?
A. Technology. B. Education. C. Culture. D. Life.
【答案】26. C 27. D 28. C 29. A 30. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍费曼学习法。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据“unlike traditional study methods like rereading textbooks or reviewing notes, it pushes students to be more actively involved in the learning process.”可知与重读教科书或复习笔记等传统学习方法不同,它促使学生更积极地参与学习过程。故选C。
【27题详解】
词义猜测题。根据“This step helps divide indigestible topics into their most basic parts.”可知把分离的困难的话题组成简单的部分,故此处划线部分意为“困难的”。故选D。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据“When possible, it can be very helpful to get advice from someone whose understanding is similar to that of a sixth-grader, such as your best friend.”可知如果可能的话,从理解能力与六年级学生相似的人那里得到建议会非常有帮助,所以可从六年级学生那得到建议,可以推测出是12岁女孩。故选C。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据“To begin with, choose a topic you want to learn, including sub-topics”“The second step is the heart of the Feynman Technique: explaining the topic simply enough to be understood by a sixth-grade student”“Next, review your explanation (解释) and try to find any area where you felt that you couldn’t explain the topic simply”以及“The fourth step is to improve your explanation by using the information collected from the third step. Finally, repeat the steps.”可知首先是选择一个你想学习的主题,包括子主题,第二步是简单地解释这个主题,第三步是复习你的解释,试着找到你觉得不能简单地解释该主题的任何领域,第四步是使用从第三步收集的信息来改进你的解释,第五步是重复这些步骤。故正确顺序是①→③→⑤→②→④。故选A。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。本文主要介绍费曼学习法,故可能出现在杂志的教育部分。故选B。
C

“The children leave their parents in Xizang and come to study in Zhuhai. It’s difficult for them to get used to the new environment (环境),” Chen says. “So our love and care for them is really important.”
Zhuhai and Xizang are more than 3,000 kilometers apart. Over the past 10 years, Chen has been busy building a home for his Xizang students. Because of the long journey, the Xizang students only return home to see their parents during summer vacation. Chen always goes with them. He has got into the habit of making home visits to know more about the students’ life. “The longer I get along with them, the more I see those students as my own children,” Chen says.
The students often call Chen “Father Chen”. When they feel unhappy, Chen often talks with them. He also often invites them to his home. “Chen is a very caring (体贴的) teacher. He often asks us if (是否) we are happy with our life, says Drolma Latso, a student from the school.
“For those Xizang students, the school is not just a place to study, but also their home,” Chen says.

My favorite teacher
There are so many excellent teachers around us during the junior high school period, the teacher who left the deepest impression on me is my English teacher, Miss. Chen.
Miss. Chen is a beautiful woman with long straight hair and bright eyes. She always dresses neatly and elegantly. She is kind, patient, and strict when necessary. She is so humorous that she makes her classes full of fun and laughter.
Miss Chen is always ready to help us. When I was in Grade Eight, I had difficulties in learning English grammar. Miss Chen used to explain the grammar rules to me patiently after class by using vivid examples and easy-to-understand language. Thanks to her help, I gradually mastered the difficult grammar points and my English grades improved gradually.
I am extremely grateful to Ms. Li. She not only taught me knowledge but also showed me the importance of being nice and helpful to others. I will always remember her kindness and guidance.

The Feynman Technique (费曼学习法) was developed by Nobel Prize-winning physicist Richard Feynman. It’s a study method that helps students learn by teaching others.
The Feynman Technique has been one of the most effective (有效的) study methods for many years. For one thing, it helps students really understand something instead of just memorizing information. What’s more, unlike traditional study methods like rereading textbooks or reviewing notes, it pushes students to be more actively involved in the learning process.
If you want to use the Feynman Technique to study better, follow these steps. To begin with, choose a topic you want to learn, including sub-topics (子主题). If not, you’ll end up jumping between topics without developing a deeper understanding of any of them.
The second step is the heart of the Feynman Technique: explaining the topic simply enough to be understood by a sixth-grade student. This requires you to help the child understand by using the simplest and clearest language possible. This step helps divide indigestible topics into their most basic parts.
Next, review your explanation (解释) and try to find any area where you felt that you couldn’t explain the topic simply. When possible, it can be very helpful to get advice from someone whose understanding is similar to that of a sixth-grader, such as your best friend.
The fourth step is to improve your explanation by using the information collected from the third step. Finally, repeat the steps. The Feynman Technique works best with repetition, and that is why going through all the prior (先前) steps just once is usually not enough to fully understand the topic.
Once you’re confident you’ve learned the topic, it’s time to give yourself a prize. Perhaps, like me, enjoy a nice cup of coffee.
26. Why is the Feynman Technique better than traditional study methods?
A. It saves students’ study time. B. It allows students to study in groups.
C. It encourages students to do active learning. D. It helps students memorize more information.
27. What does the underlined word “indigestible” mean?
A. Big. B. Small. C. Simple. D. Difficult.
28. Who can you get suggestions from according to the third step?
A. Your parents. B. Your teachers. C. A 12-year-old girl. D. Your classmates.
29. Which of the following is the correct order for the Feynman Technique?
①Pick a topic to learn. ② Improve the weak areas.
③Explain it in simplest words. ④ Repeat the steps until you really learn it.
⑤ Find the “imperfect part” of your explanation.
A. ①→③→⑤→②→④ B. ①→⑤→②→③→④
C. ⑤→②→①→③→④ D. ③→⑤→②→④→①
30. In which part of a magazine can we most probably find this passage?
A. Technology. B. Education. C. Culture. D. Life.
