Is listening to an audiobook just as useful as reading a book? Reading needs us to pay attention to the words in the book, and we also need to find proper time and a quiet space to read. 32 At the same time, it gives your eyes a break. But the big question is, do we get knowledge from audiobooks as effectively (有效地) as we do from paper books? 33 Volunteers in Group 1 were asked to listen to an audiobook while volunteers in Group 2 read a book of the same article. It turned out that they remembered the same amount (数量) of information, whether they listened to it or read it. Another study further supported the result above. In the study, researchers studied people’s brains when they listened to and read books. 34 However, some people still believe that we learn better from reading paper books at the moment. 35 If we’re trying to learn while doing two things, we’re not going to learn as well. A.Researchers did a scientific test to find the answer. B.Audiobooks have become quite popular these days. C.Young people prefer to choose audiobooks more than the old do. D.However, you can listen to audiobooks anytime and anywhere you like. E.One reason might be that when we listen to audiobooks, we need to deal with several tasks. F.The result showed that listening to audiobooks makes almost the same parts of the brain active as reading does. 四、短文填词，每词限用一次。(每小题1分，共10分) make and their insect European use bad seem really impossible “There is an interesting thing!

Thick gloves might be a good choice, but sometimes wearing them is not convenient. However, this was not a problem for ancient Chinese people, who had a fine tool to warm their hands: hand warmers. There is one folk story about its invention. Emperor Yang from the Sui Dynasty visited Jiangsu in winter. Because of the cold, a local official asked craftsmen (工匠人) to make a small warmer for the emperor that could be held in his hands. So, the hand warmer was created. By the Song Dynasty, the warmers had become popular among the common people. Skills for producing the tool were widely used in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Many poets (诗人) from this period kept a record of people using hand warmers. The materials of making hand warmers also changed over time. In the early days, copper (铜) was often used in the production process. It was more suitable than silver and iron because it could transfer (传导) heat better, while reducing the risk of breakage or corrosion (腐蚀). Inside a hand warmer, there were coals, some of which were mixed with flowers, giving off a nice smell when burned. Ancient hand warmers had different designs. Round, square and octagonal (八边形) shapes were typical, and there were also some fashioned shapes which looked like pumpkins, flowers and turtle shells. The patterns on the warmers would usually be animals or symbols with good meanings, such as deer, flowers or the Chinese characters for a long life. 1.
