They worry because they can’t remember words. In fact the problem usually isn’t with their memory. The problem is with how they study. To remember words better, you need to understand how memory works. There are two kinds of memory: short-term and long-term. When you see, hear or read something, it goes first into short-term memory. But short-term memory lasts for only a few seconds. You will only remember something longer if it goes into long-term memory. Your long-term memory is like a very big library with many, many books. It’s organized. When you put away a book or memory—you can’t just leave it anywhere. You have to choose a place where you can find it again. How can you do this with vocabulary? The answer is to work with the word and think about the word in new ways. You can do this by writing new sentences that include it. Even better, you can invent a little story about the word with people or places that you know. Another way is to make a picture in your mind with the word. For example, if the word is height, you can think of the tallest person you know and try to guess his or her height. All of these activities are good ways to think about words. They make the meanings of words stronger in your long-term memory. And they give a way to find a word when you need it. 53. In the writer’s opinion, students can’t remember words because ________. A. they have memory problems B. they are too worried C. they don’t use a proper way D. they don’t like to study 54. Which is TRUE about memory according to the passage? A. Short-term memory is seldom used. B. What we see goes into long-term memory first. C. We will forget a word soon if it goes into short-term memory. D. We will never forget a word if it goes into long-term memory. 55. The underlined part in Paragraph 2 means long-term memory ________. A. keeps many books like a large library B. works like a well-organized library C. gives you any book D. leaves memory anywhere 56. This passage mainly tells us about ________. A. Students’ language problems in study B. how to make the meanings of words stronger C. short-term and long-term memory D. ways to remember words better 【答案】53. C 54. C 55. B 56. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章针对语言学习者常遇到的记不住单词的问题展开，指出问题并非出在记忆力上，而是学习方法不当；介绍了记忆的两种类型及其特点，还详细说明了通过用单词造新句、编小故事、在脑海中构建画面等方法，将单词转化为长期记忆，从而更好地记住单词。 【53题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Students who learn language often think they have memory problems. They worry because they can’t remember words. In fact the problem usually isn’t with their memory. The problem is with how they study.”可知，作者认为学生记不住单词是因为学习方法不当，故选C。 【54题详解】 细节理解题。根据“When you see hear or read something, it goes first into short-term memory. But short-term memory lasts for only a few seconds.”可知，进入短期记忆的内容只能持续几秒钟，很快会被忘记，C选项表述正确，故选C。 【55题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“Your long-term memory is like a very big library with many, many books. It’s organized. When you put away a book or memory—you can’t just leave it anywhere. You have to choose a place where you can find it again.”可知，长期记忆像一个有组织的大图书馆，需要把“书籍（记忆）”放在特定位置以便再次找到，强调其“有条理”的特点，故选B。 【56题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章内容，开篇指出学生记不住单词的问题在于学习方法，随后介绍记忆类型，最终重点说明记住单词的方法，核心是“如何更好地记住单词”，故选D。 D Have you ever heard of daylight saving time (DST)? In most of the United States, people change their clocks twice a year. In spring, they move the clocks one hour forward, and in fall, they move them one hour back. This helps people have more daylight in the evening during summer. In the US, DST starts on the second Sunday of March and ends on the first Sunday of November. In March, the clocks move forward, so people lose one hour of sleep. This is called “spring forward”. In November, the clocks move back again. This is called “fall back”. These phrases (词组) also help people remember when DST starts and ends! Daylight saving time started during World War I to help save energy. People thought that if there was more daylight in the evening, they would use less electricity. Later, the US made it a national rule. For many middle and high school students, DST can be difficult. In spring, they have to wake up earlier, and sometimes it is still dark outside. Many students feel more tired after the time change. In fall, they get an extra hour of sleep, which feels nice! When I was in school I hated waking up in the dark for the school bus. I’d still feel sleepy even after getting to school, so it was a pain always struggling (努力) to keep my head up and stay awake for my morning classes. Even now, DST makes it harder to message my friends and family in different US time zones (时区). Some people want to end daylight saving time. Others think it is an important tradition. What do you think? 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 57. How long does daylight saving time last in the US? A. About a month. B. About a season. C. About eight months. 58. Why was DST set? A. To save energy during wartime. B. To have more working hours. C. To ensure enough sleep for students. 59. What is Paragraph 5 mainly about? A. The importance of DST. B.

By watching how they “dance”, we can learn the weather conditions (状况). It’s hard to see snowflakes dancing with the naked eye (裸眼). Scientists can use special cameras to watch them. Weathermen can use radars (雷达) to study these dances to learn about the weather. How they dance: What’s the weather like? Fall in a line: They fall slowly. Zigzag (之字形路线): They shake a little back and forth (前后). Snowflakes dancing like this may melt and become rain. Spin: They fall fast. Spin and zigzag: They bump into (撞上) each other and become bigger ones. Snowflakes falling in these ways might bring a lot of snow. 46. What can we learn by watching snowflakes “dance”? A. The size of the snowflakes. B. The weather conditions. C. The colour of the snowflakes. D. The temperature of the snowflakes. 47. What might happen if snowflakes spin and zigzag? A. They will fall very slowly. B. They will become smaller. C. They might bring a lot of snow. D. They will melt and become rain. 48. How do scientists watch snowflakes “dance”? A. By using radars. B. By using robots. C. By using their naked eyes. D. By using special cameras. B Many schools hold sports games in autumn. It turns out that autumn might be the best season to work out! During this time, the weather is great. After a hot summer, the autumn air is cool and fresh, like a natural air conditioner (空调)! In such weather, you can run, hike, cycle or walk outside without sweating (出汗) much. No more worrying about colds—autumn makes outdoor exercise safer, even when playing for a long time. Cool autumn days and daily exercise can help you sleep better, keeping you healthy. Also, autumn is very pretty! Colorful leaves and nice views can make you happier. When you exercise in nature, fresh air and beautiful views clear your mind too. And don’t forget food! Autumn is harvest (丰收) time—you can easily buy apples, pumpkins, sweet potatoes or pears. They’re full of vitamins, delicious but not expensive. Eating these foods and working out is great! Autumn exercise can also get you ready for winter. It helps you have happy chemicals (化学物质) to fight sad feelings from short days. It also makes your body stronger, so you might not catch a cold in winter. 49.

They worry because they can’t remember words. In fact the problem usually isn’t with their memory. The problem is with how they study. To remember words better, you need to understand how memory works. There are two kinds of memory: short-term and long-term. When you see, hear or read something, it goes first into short-term memory. But short-term memory lasts for only a few seconds. You will only remember something longer if it goes into long-term memory. Your long-term memory is like a very big library with many, many books. It’s organized. When you put away a book or memory—you can’t just leave it anywhere. You have to choose a place where you can find it again. How can you do this with vocabulary? The answer is to work with the word and think about the word in new ways. You can do this by writing new sentences that include it. Even better, you can invent a little story about the word with people or places that you know. Another way is to make a picture in your mind with the word. For example, if the word is height, you can think of the tallest person you know and try to guess his or her height. All of these activities are good ways to think about words. They make the meanings of words stronger in your long-term memory. And they give a way to find a word when you need it. 53. In the writer’s opinion, students can’t remember words because ________. A. they have memory problems B. they are too worried C. they don’t use a proper way D. they don’t like to study 54 Which is TRUE about memory according to the passage? A. Short-term memory is seldom used. B. What we see goes into long-term memory first. C. We will forget a word soon if it goes into short-term memory. D. We will never forget a word if it goes into long-term memory. 55. The underlined part in Paragraph 2 means long-term memory ________. A. keeps many books like a large library B. works like a well-organized library C. gives you any book D. leaves memory anywhere 56. This passage mainly tells us about ________. A. Students’ language problems in study B. how to make the meanings of words stronger C. short-term and long-term memory D. ways to remember words better D Have you ever heard of daylight saving time (DST)? In most of the United States, people change their clocks twice a year. In spring, they move the clocks one hour forward, and in fall, they move them one hour back. This helps people have more daylight in the evening during summer. In the US, DST starts on the second Sunday of March and ends on the first Sunday of November. In March, the clocks move forward, so people lose one hour of sleep. This is called “spring forward”. In November, the clocks move back again. This is called “fall back”. These phrases (词组) also help people remember when DST starts and ends! Daylight saving time started during World War I to help save energy. People thought that if there was more daylight in the evening, they would use less electricity. Later, the US made it a national rule. For many middle and high school students, DST can be difficult. In spring, they have to wake up earlier, and sometimes it is still dark outside. Many students feel more tired after the time change. In fall, they get an extra hour of sleep, which feels nice! When I was in school, I hated waking up in the dark for the school bus. I’d still feel sleepy even after getting to school, so it was a pain always struggling (努力) to keep my head up and stay awake for my morning classes. Even now, DST makes it harder to message my friends and family in different US time zones (时区). Some people want to end daylight saving time. Others think it is an important tradition. What do you think? 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 57. How long does daylight saving time last in the US? A. About a month. B. About a season. C. About eight months. 58. Why was DST set? A. To save energy during wartime. B. To have more working hours. C. To ensure enough sleep for students. 59. What is Paragraph 5 mainly about? A. The importance of DST. B. How the writer struggled due to DST. C. How children counted time during DST. 60. What is the writer’s attitude toward DST? A. He doesn’t say. B. He supports it. C. He’s against it. 读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Now, more and more people walk to keep healthy. Do you know why? ____61____ Walking makes your heart strong.
