When it comes to learning, the ability to memorize always matters. We’ve all been there — staring at a book, hoping that we will remember all we study. Many of us have probably wondered, “Is there any way to improve memory? 1 2 They say that trying to retrieve(检索) something from your memory after you have some time to forget it will make it easier to remember in future. Similarly, studies have shown that taking some time to just do nothing after studying might mean that you can remember things better later. 3 Some experts think it has to do with the relationship between long-term and short-term memory. Another study tip is to change between different topics as you study. 4 Connecting them to each other or to images is often considered a good way to remember something. Former world memory champion Jonathan Hancock believes that picturing pieces of information in different locations or connecting them to memorable images can make them easier to remember. There are also other more things that we can do to improve our memory. Hancock says that being generally organized makes things easier for your brain. 5 People memorize better when they are in a more relaxing environment. So the good news to take from this is that while it may be hard, improving our memory is something we can achieve. A. It is not clear why this happens. B. Reviewing is a good way to improve the learning process. C. This can help you make connections between different ideas. D. So, why don’t we look at what memory experts say about this? E. Many other experts also suggest that we should get a lot of rest and exercise. F. Some experts have got some interesting conclusions from their research. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 三、阅读表达。（共 10 小题；每小题 2 分，计 20 分） A. 完成图表。根据短文内容，完成图表中所缺信息，词数不限。（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，计 10 分） A disabled man who makes clay pieces on the streets of Chengdu has become popular across the country.

Since August 2024, driver-less taxis could run on roads in Wuhan, Chongqing and Shenzhen. Why do we develop self-driving cars? Self-driving cars have many advantages. They use computers with many cameras which can sense all the objects close to the car and give the computers another route( 路线). Then the car can take people to the places where they want to go. For disabled or blind people, self-driving cars can also help them get around more easily. According to US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, each year, more than 1.35 million people are killed on roads around the world. It’s reported that self-driving cars could reduce( 减 少 ) road accidents by 90 percent. The main cause of car accidents is human mistakes. By using computers, self-driving cars don’t make poor decisions or lose attention like humans do. However, . If something unexpected on the road happens, self-driving cars can’t react( 反 应 ) as fast as a human driver can. Also, during weather events like heavy snow, self-driving cars wouldn’t see the lines on the road easily. It might lead to an accident. The car’s computer system would be broken by someone, causing it to crash or change its direction. It’s clear that there is a lot of work to do to make self-driving cars a common and safe sight on our roads. And China is taking the lead in making this happen. 6. Where can we see driver-less taxis since last year? 7. What can self-driving cars do for the disabled people? 8. Compared with human-driving, how do the self-driving cars help reduce car accidents? 9. What sentence can we write down on the line in Paragraph 4? 10. What does the writer think of the future of self-driving cars? 11 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 四、书面表达（计 15 分） 假如你是李明，你几年未见的英国朋友 Peter 将要来成都过春节。请给他写一封 ( 信，告诉 Peter 你的变化，并向他介绍以下中国文化。 ) 要求：（1）请先在答题卡上填写图示中空格(一空一词)； 1. 2. （2）须全面反映图文信息，可适当发挥，逻辑清晰，过渡自然，字迹工整； （3）文中不能出现真实姓名及校名； （4）字数 100 词左右，信件开头和格式已给出，不计入总词数。 参考词汇：lunar 农历 Dear Peter, I’m glad to know you will come to Chengdu soon. _________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Ming 12 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
