A.An advertisement. B.An instruction. C.A poem. D.A novel. (　　) 2.What is the passage about? A.Graduation from school. B.Starting a new school year. C.Memories of the summer vacation. D.A journey to the college. (　　) 3.What is the writer going to miss? A.The heavy heart and teary eyes. B.The moments that passed by. C.The new school year. D.The food in the dining hall. B No one can remember everything，but everyone can learn how to improve their memory.Here are some tips.None of them can make your memory 100% perfect，but all of them are helpful. When you want to remember something，tell a friend about it.In this way，the new information becomes more memorable (难忘的).Later on，think about the conversation with your friend.It will remind you of the information you wanted to remember before. Don’t over-train your brain.When you’ve remembered a list of new vocabulary，stop studying.It’s better to study a lot of material for a small amount of time than a small amount of material for a lot of time.But remember: you have to practise your new vocabulary regularly.Our memory works well when we sleep.If you want to remember something，go to sleep at once after learning it. If you have to remember something big，break it down into smaller sections.It’s easier to remember 198756430387 if you break it down into four smaller bits: 198-756-430-387. If you want to remember a piece of information but you can’t，don’t get angry.Relax and tell yourself，“If it’s important，I will remember it later.” One of the best ways of remembering is to make “pictures” on the “movie screen” of your mind.Experts say that our brain works a lot better in pictures.So sometimes，if we want to remember new information，it is helpful to make a picture.Anyone can learn to do this. (　　) 4.What can you do if you want to remember something? A.Tell someone about it. B.Turn it into big sections. C.Get angry about it. D.Stop remembering it. (　　) 5.How can you help your brain work better? A.By telling yourself to remember later. B.By reminding yourself of the information. C.By studying much material for much time. D.By making “pictures” on the “movie screen” of your mind. (　　) 6.What’s the best title for the passage? A.Suggestions to Train the Brain B.Suggestions to Create Pictures C.Ways to Improve Memory D.Ways to Make the Perfect Memory C How is your memory? Remembering things is an important job of our brain.If we can’t recall how to do anything，we can’t survive.Memory allows the brain to store and retrieve information when required.Our short-term memory can hold a small amount of information for a short time，while our long-term memory can hold an unlimited (无限的) amount of information for a long time.Our memory is amazing，but why do we still forget things? It’s possible that we don’t always store information in our memory effectively，maybe because we are in a rush or we consider it irrelevant (不相关的).When we store information，we often make connections with other things，which helps us recall it later.If you don’t have these connections，then it can be easier to forget.Writing for the BBC Science Focus magazine，Luis Villazon says，“It is also possible that memories decay (衰退) over time.As they have not been revisited，their biological ‘trace’ becomes weak.” It’s true that if you don’t perform a task for a long time，it can be difficult to recall how to do it. But sometimes even our short-term memory can let us down.Have you ever gone into a room to get something only to forget what you wanted when you got there? This is called “The Doorway Effect”.Writing for the BBC Future website，Tom Stafford explains that this occurs because we change both the physical and mental (精神的) environments，moving to a different room and thinking about different things. So，if you always forget things，it could be because you have too much in your mind.But we need to keep our memory clear by continually using it. (　　) 7.What is the function (作用) of the underlined sentence in the first paragraph? A.Explaining an question. B.Expressing strong feelings. C.Leading into the following text. D.Giving the main idea of the first paragraph. (　　) 8.What can we know from the second paragraph? A.Different things are hard to remember at one time. B.Making connections helps you remember things better. C.Things will not be forgotten as you consider them unimportant. D.The biological “trace” becomes weak as one grows older. (　　) 9.Which of the following can be called “The Doorway Effect”? A.You forget what you have learned in your middle school. B.You forget how to drive a car after not driving for years. C.You forget some of your classmates’ names after graduation. D.You forget something to buy when you get to the supermarket. (　　) 10.How can you remember English words better according to the text? A.Write the words on the paper. B.Memorize words by repeating them 100 times. C.Connect words to other things and often use them. D.Memorize all the words in a day and never use them again. D Not long ago，a photo of the football players in my college showed up on my phone as a “memory”，which was kept through the digital memory (数字记忆).I was surprised to see the photo at first and sweet memories flashed into my mind. In the photo，the players from the football team hugged together in excitement after they won the game.At that time，I took a photo of them with my phone.　It　 recorded the friendship and the happiness.Then，I fell into the habit of taking photos of everything.More and more photos filled my phone so I almost forgot this photo.Thanks to the digital memory，I could enjoy the happy time again. People needed to make an effort to record things in the past.But now we can do something like that easily through the digital memory.We store what we want to remember on our smartphones.Most of the photos that I have kept on my phone and in the cloud storage now bring happy memories back for me. However，not all the digital memories are happy.Some are sad.When I see the photos of my lost pet，I am worried.Because they make me recall something I want to forget.Usually，digital memories are sent to me non-stop and without any human-like feelings.That drives me crazy. It’s hard to say clearly when the digital memory started madly.These digital memories，whether happy or sad，break into our lives.As a reporter，I have spent the past five years taking different photos.They will always be there，whatever. (　　) 11.What does the underlined word “　It　” in Paragraph 2 refer to (指代)? A.The college. B.The photo taken by the writer. C.The football team. D.The game. (　　) 12.Why does the writer mention his lost pet? A.To hide some sadness in his life. B.To help people run away from the past. C.To show his dislike of some digital memories. D.To explain the digital memory is very easy to use. (　　) 13.Which of the following is RIGHT? A.The photos on phones record the past for people. B.The players in the football team liked taking photos. C.People today have to remember lots of happy times. D.The digital memory started when the writer became a reporter. E The biggest weakness of human nature is that we don’t know how to treasure what we have.This is exactly the reason why we always think that the grass is greener on the other side of the fence.Instead of paying attention to modern-day problems，we should be grateful for what we have and who we are. Last week，my washing machine stopped working and wouldn’t wash my clothes.I tried to fix it by searching online，but the repairs were too expensive.This week，my daughter’s older washing machine also broke down.I tried to fix it myself，but it was beyond repair.Unluckily，I had to buy two new machines. But then，a memory from my childhood came back.I remembered watching my grandma use an old-fashioned washing machine to wash my dirty clothes.This machine didn’t have a spin cycle，so Grandma would squeeze out every drop of water from each piece of clothing through a pair of rollers.Once，I even caught my fingers in them，which was very painful.After washing the clothes，Grandma would pat the machine lovingly before hanging them outside on the clothesline to dry.She grew up hand-washing clothes，so having a machine that did most of the work was a blessing to her. Thinking back on this memory made me realize something important.I have more luxuries (奢侈品) than my grandma，mum，and dad had when they were younger.It’s easy to get caught up in our own world，but remembering where we came from and how far we’ve come can help us appreciate what we have today.And who knows? Maybe someday we’ll look back on these moments as the good old days too.We should take a moment to appreciate the little things in life，whether it’s a warm cup of tea or the sound of birds chirping in the morning.The simple things make life worth living. (　　) 14.Why did the author fail to repair her washing machine? A.Because it was beyond repair. B.Because she didn’t have the skills. C.Because the repairs were too expensive. D.Because her daughter didn’t want her to do it. (　　) 15.What does the underlined word “squeeze” mean? A.Press. B.Touch. C.Fix. D.Feel. (　　) 16.What’s the right structure of the text?(①=Paragraph 1...) A. B. C. D. (　　) 17.What lesson did the author learn from her childhood memory? A.Pay attention to modern-day problems. B.Appreciate what we have today. C.Dream of having more luxuries. D.Try to make life worth recalling. 第二节 阅读下面短文，并用英语回答问题(请注意每小题的词数要求)。 F Have you ever forgotten where your socks are when you wake up in the morning? Can you remember what you ate for lunch a week ago? You may think that being forgetful is not a good thing.But now you should be thankful. Scientists found that forgetting is actually a key part of learning.Getting rid of (去除) unnecessary information can help our brains work better. What kind of information is unnecessary? Scientists say that this may have something to do with the environment in which you live. The environment is always changing，so our brains may require us to remember less.For example，a supermarket salesgirl meets many people every day and will probably only remember them for a short time.But a designer who often meets his or her customers will remember longer. That’s because there is a special area in our brains called the hippocampus (海马体).It plays an important role for humans in learning and remembering.When new information goes into the hippocampus，it renews our old memories.This could explain why you forget so much information when you were very young. However，being forgetful is not always good.When you don’t have enough sleep，you may have a hard time remembering new information.Sleep helps the brain store and keep information. 18.What did scientists find about forgetting?(不超过10个词) _____________________________________________________________________ 19.What role does the hippocampus play?(不超过10个词) _____________________________________________________________________ 20.What do you think of being forgetful in life?
