①Have you met such a situation—you need to remember something like phone numbers, or a shopping list and you have no paper with you? If you have trouble memorizing such things, clenching the fist(握紧拳头) may help.
②In a test made by the researchers, volunteers of four groups were asked to clench a small ball as hard as possible before memorizing a list of 72 words. They clenched the ball again a couple of minutes later, before recalling(回想) as many of the words as possible.
③Group1 used their right hands both times, and Group2 used their left hands twice. Group3 clenched their right fists before memorizing and their left fists before recalling the information. Group 4 did with the left hands and then the right.
④As a result, those who clenched with their right hands first and then the left, remembered the most words. The next best were the volunteers who made a fist with their right hands both times, while those who used the left hands and then the right did better than those who did with their left hands twice.
⑤The test shows that clenching the right fist hard actually makes it easier to memorize lists. Later, when it is time to recall the information, it is the left fist that should be clenched.

⑥However, how do the researchers explain this?

Researcher Dr. Ruth said, “The findings suggest that ▲ – by changing the way the brain works – can improve memory.”
( )6. When you have trouble memorizing a shopping list, you may ____________ to help.

( )7. Please rank(排列) the group numbers (from the best to the worst) according to the test results.

( )8. Which of the following can be put in the ▲ ?
A. much memory training B. lots of heavy work C. simple body movements D. enough good sleep
( )9. We can infer from the passage that ___________.

IV. 任务型阅读(共 9 分)
The carrot knife is a fun, plastic toy that can be folded. It is designed in the shape of a carrot. It has quickly caught the attention of young people nationwide in less than a month. Many online store owners say they have sold about 100,000 of the toys a month.
The toy is the creation of a college student interested in 3D printing. At first, it was just one of his many works. But it quickly became popular online. What interests the children most is its blade (刀刃) that can swing in and out. Also, the carrot knife caught the eyes of the children because of the cute shape and beautiful colors. What’s more, it can be as cheap as an eraser, so the children have no difficulty in buying one. As a result, the toy becomes more and more popular among children.
However, experts are worried that the carrot knife could be dangerous. Although it looks cute and has a soft plastic blade, the toy can become a tool to hurt others during a fight. What’s worse, it may create the connection with actual violence (暴力) in children’s minds. Almost all the videos about the toy have clearly shown the scenes of stabbing (刺) and playful throat-cutting with this toy. Some producers of the toy even use phrases such as “stab whomever you dislike ” or “click, click, watch me stab you ” to increase their sales. This may have a very bad influence on the people under the age of 18. So experts are strongly encouraging parents not to buy these toys, and students should not buy them themselves.
The cute carrot knife reminds people to think more deeply about toys. ________________________________.

Chinese shadow puppetry (皮影戏) is a form of traditional Chinese folk drama, probably one of the oldest arts using light and shadow. It is also a mix of many art forms, including painting, music, opera and story-telling. Shadow puppetry was added to UNESCO’s Intangible Cultural Heritage (非物质文化遗产) List in 2011.
More than 2, 000 years ago, Emperor Wu of Han was very sad about the death of his wife. One day, one of his men happened to see some children playing with toys. The shadows ofthe toys were lively on the floor. Then he had an idea —he made a puppet (人偶) of the emperor’s wife. As night fell, he invited the emperor to watch a puppet show. This is believed to be the start of shadow puppetry.
In the Tang Dynasty, shadow puppetry was played by many people in many places around the country. Then in the Yuan Dynasty, it was introduced into West Asian and European countries along the Silk Road. The art form became the most popular in the Qing Dynasty.
In recent years, puppetry artists have explored ways to make this ancient art form as popular as it used to be and pass it on to the young, hoping more people can understand its importance and feel its beauty. They also get support from the Chinese government. Thanks to their hard work, Chinese shadow puppetry is becoming great again.
