Do computers stop us from learning and developing? Do they make us stupid? A recent study at Columbia University in New York looked at this question, in particular how computers change our memory. 1
First, the scientists did study on what happens when people are asked difficult questions. They found that what we think has changed when we hear difficult questions because of websites like Google. When people were asked difficult questions in the past, scientists believe they tried to think of the answers to the questions. 2 They don’t try to answer it themselves. For example, they think about what they might put into Google, but in the past they thought about the question itself.
Second, scientists found that computers have changed the type of information we remember. 3 On one hand, it seems that people now forget facts. On the other hand, it is true that they can clearly remember where to find the fact. 4 Most of the students couldn’t remember the facts, but they were able to remember the files and the where the facts is.
5 Scientists believe that we are spending time remembering where and how we can find things, but we’re not trying to remember the information itself any more.
A.This change can be both good and bad.
B.They wanted to find out if computers have changed the way we remember information.
C.So it seems that computers are not making us stupid, but they are making us lazy!
D.However, because of modern technology, the first thing people think about now is how to find the answer.
E.In one test, scientists told university students some facts and also where the facts were saved in a file.

In July, a woman met a very thin wolf while driving through Hoh Xil. 2 Out of kindness, she got out of the car and gave it some meat.

In a recent video, the wolf can be seen much larger and fatter. 4
Some people find the beggar wolf “cute and funny”. But animal experts are worried about its popularity. 5 “Wild animals may carry bacteria (细菌).

Have you ever heard the old saying, “You don’t really understand something unless you can teach it to someone else.” 1
Why it’s so useful
When children teach something to someone else, they also need to answer questions other people might have. 2
Test out the “learning by teaching” at home
You don’t need to be an expert to support your children with their learning. 3 Let them take the lead. Start by simply asking questions. If they get into trouble, encourage them to use their notes or online lessons from their teachers.
4
If you want to help your children practice telling ideas, have them create online lessons. They can practice many of the other skills, like introducing the big ideas and providing examples. To get started, you can review them together.
Ask your children’s teachers for support
For more powerful “learning by teaching” at home, make sure to connect with your children’s teachers. And ask them to provide information to best support your children’s progress. Your children’s teachers can share the learning aims with you. 5 Besides, they can send ideas of home activities to encourage your children to play the role of “teacher”.

B.Have your children create online lessons.
C.It helps children build long-term understanding of the knowledge.

Do you have trouble creating a big idea? 1
Scientists have found a connection between daydreaming and creative problem-solving. 2 They had to think of as many ways as they could. Then, before solving the difficult problem again, they chose to do one of the following things: work out a difficult problem, work out an easy one, or take a 12-minute break.
3 Many students reported that they were daydreaming when doing the easy task. So the scientists believed that daydreaming might help them become more creative.
But how could daydreaming help the brain think creatively? 4 Even when you are not actively working on a problem, it is still in the back of your mind. Your brain is still thinking about it, but you are unaware of it.
Great ideas never come easily, but that does not mean you always have to work hard to get them. 5
A.Surprisingly, the best group was the one that chose the easy problem.
B.Just do what you want and let your mind feel free.
C.Perhaps you can try daydreaming.
D.Their study includes asking a group of students to solve a difficult problem.
E.The answer is something known as “unconscious thought” (无意识思维).

Do you have trouble creating a big idea? 1
Scientists have found a connection between daydreaming and creative problem-solving. 2 They had to think of as many ways as they could.

3 Many students reported that they were daydreaming when doing the easy task. So the scientists believed that daydreaming might help them become more creative.
But how could daydreaming help the brain think creatively? 4 Even when you are not actively working on a problem, it is still in the back of your mind. Your brain is still thinking about it, but you are unaware of it.
