A
This year I am living abroad in Germany and trying to learn as much German as possible.But one thing I didn't realize was how many new words I would face every day.I see and hear new words everywhere: the notices in the train station; menus in restaurants; the local newspaper and of course from my German-speaking friends.New words are all around you when you are in a foreign country.
At first, a lot of German words I didn't understand gave me a headache.I kept on looking up new words but by the end of the day I had forgotten most of them already.It upset me.A month later, I went to a shop and bought a small notebook.I set myself the goal of writing five new words a day into my little blue notebook.Since then, in my bag, I have always carried an important thing—my little blue word notebook.
I don't have any rules about which words I write down.Most days I write down words that I learn from my partners at work, or words that I have read.I have also learned the names of many fruits and vegetables from looking at their labels(标签)in the supermarket—a very unexpected way of learning words.And I have learned many words that I have heard on TV or on the radio.If I hear a word that I even don't know how to spell, I write down how I think it is and look it up later.
My little blue word notebook is now like my closest friend.We are like Batman and Robin; we go everywhere together.Setting the small daily goal has made me feel much more in control of my language learning and I am already seeing an improvement.I will continue to use it for the rest of my stay in Germany and also when I return to university at home in September.

(2024·广东华附、省实、广雅、深中四校期末联考)
Handwriting notes in class might seem old-fashioned as digital technology affects nearly every aspect of learning.But a recent study in Frontiers in Psychology suggests that taking notes with pen and paper is still the best way to learn, especially for young children.
The new research builds on a 2014 study that suggested people may type notes quickly, without thinking much about what they're writing— but writing by hand is slower and makes them actively pay attention to the incoming information and process it.This conscious action of building on existing knowledge can make it easier for students to stay engaged and grasp new concepts.
To understand specific brain activity differences during the two note-taking approaches, the researchers of the new study sewed electrodes(电极) into a hairnet with 256 sensors that recorded the brain activity of 36 students as they wrote or typed words displayed on a screen.When students wrote by hand, the sensors picked up widespread brain connectivity across visual regions, regions that receive and process sensory information and the motor cortex(运动皮层).Typing, however, resulted in minimal activity in these brain regions.
An assistant professor of educational neuroscience at Vanderbilt University Sophia Vinci-Booher says the recent study highlights the clear tie between motor action and concept understanding:“As you're writing a word, you're taking this understanding of something and using your motor system to create it.” That creation is then fed back into the visual system, where it's processed again— strengthening the connection between an action and the words associated with it.
Vinci-Booher notes that the new findings don't mean technology is always a disadvantage in the classroom.Digital devices can be more efficient for writing essays and offer more equal access to educational resources.However, there's a growing trend towards relying on digital devices to perform cognitive (认知的)tasks, such as taking photos instead of memorising information.Yadurshana Sivashankar, a graduate student at the University of Waterloo,says, “If we're not actively using our brain areas, then they are going to become worse over time, whether it's memory or motor skills.”
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了手写笔记仍是最好的学习方式,尤其是对儿童而言。
5.Why does the author mention the 2014 study?
A.To present different research findings.
B.To make the new research more convincing.
C.To compare two note-taking approaches.
D.To show the advantage of writing slowly.
答案:B
解析:推理判断题。根据第一段内容可知,一项新研究表明,用笔和纸记笔记仍然是最好的学习方式,接着第二段提到这项研究是基于2014年的一项研究,而2014年的研究表明,手写比打字更能让人积极地关注和处理输入的信息,新研究的结果与2014年的有共同之处,所以作者提及2014年的研究是为了让新的研究更具说服力。故选B项。
6.What can be learnt from the experiment in Paragraph 3?
A.Sensors were used to process visual information.
B.Electrodes were connected to students' hair directly.
C.Writing by hand activated more brain activities than typing.
D.Typing stimulated the motor cortex to inform following action.
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中的“When students wrote by hand, the sensors picked up widespread brain connectivity...Typing, however, resulted in minimal activity in these brain regions.”可知,手写可以激活大脑更广泛区域的活动,相比之下,打字只在这些区域产生了极少的活动,由此可知,手写比打字更能激活大脑活动。故选C项。
7.What would Sophia Vinci-Booher probably advise students to do?
A.Make better use of the motor system.
B.Take advantage of digital devices.
C.Adopt a new approach to taking notes.
D.Memorise words by writing them.
答案:D
解析:推理判断题。根据第四段内容可知,索菲娅·芬奇-布赫认为,当你在写一个单词时,你正在对某物进行概念理解,并使用你的运动系统来创造它,然后这种创造被反馈到视觉系统中,在那里它被再次处理,这加强了动作与相关单词之间的联系。因此她可能会建议学生通过写单词来进行记忆。故选D项。
8.What is the main idea of the text?
A.Technology is not a disadvantage in classroom.
B.Writing by hand comes with learning benefits.
C.Taking notes enhances students' brain activity.
D.Two note-taking approaches have clear differences.
答案:B
解析:主旨大意题。根据第一段中“But a recent study in Frontiers in Psychology suggests that taking notes with pen and paper is still the best way to learn, especially for young children.”及下文内容可知,本文主要介绍了手写笔记有助于学习。故选B项。
Ⅳ.阅读七选五(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
(2024·山东青岛二中月考)
As a high school student, you're likely used to learning through reading textbooks. 1 This lies at the heart of“experiential appreciation”, a philosophy that encourages you to engage directly with the world around you.It's about learning from real-life experiences, and discovering a more profound and engaging way to learn.
To practise experiential appreciation, you can start by getting involved in hands-on activities related to your subjects.They will provide a firsthand understanding of the concepts you're studying, making learning active and meaningful.So, try joining a sports team, picking up a paintbrush, or taking part in a local charity event. 2
As you dive deeper, immerse yourself fully in the surroundings and activities.When you're in nature,don't just look around. 3 Touching the leaves, feeling the wind and listening to the birds can enrich your learning and make each moment more memorable.
4 After trying something new, ask yourself what you learnt and how it made you feel.Write in a journal or discuss it with friends.This self-discovery turns experiences into life lessons and offers a deeper understanding of the world.
Experiential appreciation transforms learning from a task to be completed into a journey to be treasured. 5 So, explore the world around you, let every experience shape you, and discover the endless possibilities that await.This is the core of true learning, where every moment is a step towards a richer, more enlightened life.
A.It extends learning beyond textbooks.
B.These activities bring learning to life.
C.Mind the impact of your actions on the environment.
D.Instead, activate your senses for stronger ties with it.
E.Take your experiences further by reflecting on them.
F.Textbooks offer a systematic introduction to essential concepts and principles.
G.Now consider expanding your learning from just reading to actively participating.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一种直接与周围世界接触的学习方法,即“体验式欣赏”学习法。
1.答案:G
解析:上文介绍传统的学习方法,即通过阅读课本进行学习。设空处下文则引出另一种学习方法,即“体验式欣赏”,设空处应为过渡句,且提及 This指代的内容。G项“现在考虑将你的学习从仅仅阅读扩展到积极参与。”承上启下,呼应下文的engage directly with the world around you,符合语境。故选G项。
2.答案:B
解析:设空处位于段尾,应是对上文内容的归纳概括。根据上文的“So, try joining a sports team, picking up a paintbrush, or taking part in a local charity event.”可知,设空处应谈论这些活动的作用,B 项中的 These activities 指代上文中提到的活动,符合语境。故选B项。
3.答案:D
解析:上文提到当你身处大自然时,不要只环顾四周。下文则描述了亲身接触大自然的场景。由此可推测,设空处应与上文构成转折关系。D项“相反,激活你的感官,以获得与自然更强烈的联系。”承上启下,符合语境。
4.答案:E
解析:分析文章结构可知,设空处应为本段中心句。根据下文中的“After trying something new, ask yourself what you learnt and how it made you feel.”及“This self-discovery turns experiences into life lessons and offers a deeper understanding of the world.”可知,要对学过的东西进行反思,E项“通过反思你的经历,让体验更进一步。”符合语境。
5.答案:A
解析:根据上文的“Experiential appreciation transforms learning from a task to be completed into a journey to be treasured.”及空后的 So可推测,设空处应承接上文,继续介绍“体验式欣赏”学习法的好处。A项“它使学习超出课本范围。”符合语境,A项中的It指代上文的 Experiential appreciation。
