The average person forgets 70% of new vocabulary within 24 hours, but with the right techniques, you can achieve near-perfect retention. The following scientifically-proven techniques have helped millions of learners master vocabulary at lightning speed. Active Visualization (Most Powerful)How it works: Create vivid, exaggerated mental images that link the word with its meaning. Example: “SERENDIPITY” (happy accident) → Visualize accidentally finding a pile of gold coins while walking Success Rate: 96% retention (保留) after 1 week vs. 23% with traditional methods Best For: Abstract concepts and difficult vocabulary The Link MethodHow it works: Connect new words to words you already know through sound, meaning, or visual similarity. Example: “GREGARIOUS” (sociable) → “Greg is HILARIOUS at parties” (social connection) Success Rate: 88% of learners remember words using personal connections Best For: Large vocabulary lists and exam preparation Spaced Repetition SystemHow it works: Review words at scientifically-calculated intervals (间隔) to maximize retention. Best Schedule: 1 day, 3 days, 1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month, 3 months Success Rate: 94% long-term retention (6+months) Best For: Building permanent vocabulary for life Memory PalaceHow it works: Place words in familiar locations and create a mental journey to visit them. Technique: Walk through your home, placing each word in a specific room with a vivid scene Success Rate: Memory athletes memorize 100+ words using this ancient technique Best For: Large word lists and competition preparation Context ClusteringHow it works: Learn words in meaningful groups related to themes, situations, or topics. Example: Group business words: “negotiate,” “collaborate,” “implement,” Success Rate: 85% faster learning when words share context Best For: Professional vocabulary and specialized fields Keyword MethodHow it works: Find a familiar word that sounds like the target word, then create a visual connection. Example: “AVARICE” (greed) → “AVERY ICE cold person hoarding money” Success Rate: 91% effective for foreign language vocabulary Best For: Foreign words and unfamiliar terminology 31．Which technique has the highest reported one-week retention rate?

D．A business finance report. B Across the world, language and history are connected. As society and tradition change, new words or phrases are created to show the present cultural understanding. Some old phrases and words simply turn into the accepted usages with their backgrounds forgotten. One such phrase “grandfathered in” has become a common one now. Although it often makes people think of the image of a gray-haired, older gentleman, who gets out of trouble because of his age, it actually means that one person or a business has the right to refuse the new rules. A deeper look into the first use of the phrase shows an interesting story in history. It happened in a town in the 1980s, a new law was passed there not to allow illiterates (文盲) to participate in the making of rules as they couldn’t read or write and might not help in the process. The limit was potent because except for the old and children, there were close to 30 percent of young adults in the town who had little or no education and they are disqualified in making rules. Being strong and energetic. They made up an important part of the town’s development. Considering that, some officers in the town didn’t readily accept the rule. Instead, they carefully gave their advice to the head of the town. At the same time, they encouraged these young adults to pass the literacy (读写能力) tests. Thus a “grandfather clause (条款)” was added to allow illiterates to participate as long as they or their grandfathers had once been participants. The clause no doubt helped remove the unfairness and benefited all. The phrase “grandfathered in” is of course still widely used today without being limited to a certain field. But even as culture and tradition change, whether we’re aware of it or not, language has the power to hold our history. 36．According to Paragraph 1, what has happened to some old phrase with time going? A．They have got lost in history. B．Few people can use them correctly. C．They are rarely used in popular culture. D．Few people know much about their history. 37．The phrase “grandfathered in” is used nowadays when ________. A．an old man dislikes new rule B．a person is free from new rules C．a business has a long history and culture D．a businessman fails to follow the market rules 38．What does the underlined word “potent” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Unpopular. B．Powerful. C．Easy. D．Reasonable. 39．What does the author think of the “grandfather clause” in the history? A．Funny. B．Incorrect. C．Positive. D．Disappointing. 40．What does the author intend to tell us in the last paragraph? A．Language and history are always connected. B．The birth of some phrases can be interesting. C．History plays an important role in communication. D．Some phrases are created to show the present culture. C The practice of students endlessly copying letters and sentences from a blackboard is a thing of the past With the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphone, writing by hand has become something of nostalgic (怀旧的) skill. However, while today’s educators are using more and more technology in their teaching, many believe basic handwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successful — both in school and in life. Virginia Berninger, professor of educational psychology at the University of Washington, says it’s important to continue teaching handwriting and help children pick up the skill of writing by hand. Berninger and her colleagues carried out a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks — both on a computer and by hand. The study, published in 2009, found that compared with writing on a computer, when writing with a pen and paper, participants wrote longer essays and more complete sentences and had a faster word production rate. In a more recent study, Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a student’s writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to how well they can write. “Spelling makes some of the thinking parts of the brain active which helps us access our vocabulary, word meaning and concepts. It is allowing our written language to connect with ideas.” Berninger said. Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe (转换) “those words in the mind into written symbols on paper or keyboard and screen,” the study, said. Seeing the words in the “mind’s eye” helps children not only to turn their’ ideas into words, says Berninger, but also to spot (发现) spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct them over time. “In our computer age, some people believe that we don’t have to teach spelling because we have spell checks,” she said. “But until a child has a functional spelling ability of about a fifth grade level, they won’t have the knowledge to choose the correct spelling among the options given by the computer.” 41．What makes writing by hand a thing of the past? A．The absence of blackboard in classroom. B．The lack of practice in handwriting. C．The use of new technologies in teaching. D．The popular use of smartphones. 42．Berninger’s study published in 2009 ________. A．indicated that students prefer to write with a pen and paper. B．focused on the difference between writing by hand and on a computer. C．found that good essays are made up of long sentences. D．discussed the importance of writing speed. 43．Which of the following best shows the role of spelling? A．Spelling improves one’s memory of words. B．Spelling benefits the translation from words into ideas. C．Spelling ability is closely related to writing ability. D．Spelling slows down finding exact words to express ideas. 44．What does “mind’s eye” in paragraph 5 mean? A．Imagination. B．Soul. C．Picture. D．Window. 45．What conclusion could be drawn from the passage? A．Computers can help people with their choice of words. B．Spell checks can take the place of spelling teaching. C．Functional spelling ability develops fast in the fifth grade. D．Handwriting still has a place in today’s classrooms. 第Ⅱ卷（非选择题） 阅读表达 Maybe you are an average student. You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessary so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here is how. Plan your time carefully. When planning your week, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making the list, you should make a schedule of your time. First arrange your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying. Don’t forget to set aside enough time for entertainment. A weekly schedule may not solve all the problems, but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time. Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this place, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios or TV! When you sit down to study, concentrate on the subject. Make good use of your time in class. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teacher says. Really listening in class means less work later. Taking class notes will help you remember what the teacher says. Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes. Review the important points that your teacher has mentioned in class. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read the material. This will help you understand the next class. If you do these things regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer. Develop a good attitude about the tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. They help you to remember your new knowledge. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t be overly worried. There are other methods that might help you with your studying. You will probably discover many others after you have tried these. 46．What is the best title of the passage? (within 10 words) 47．Please explain the underlined phrase “set aside” in English. (within 5 words) 48．What kind of attitude shall we have about the tests according to the passage? (Within 20 words) 49．Who is the passage written for? (Within 10 words) 50．Which suggestion do you think is the best for you? Why?

The following scientifically-proven techniques have helped millions of learners master vocabulary at lightning speed.(无论你是为 SAT 考试做准备，还是学习一门新语言，又或是扩充自己的专业词汇量，快速记忆单词都是至关重要的。普通人通常会在24小时内遗忘70%的新词汇，但通过恰当的方法，你能够实现近乎完美的记忆效果。以下这些经过科学验证的技巧帮助了数百万学习者以极快的速度掌握词汇)”结合文章介绍了六种科学有效的单词记忆法，包括主动想象、联想法、间隔重复、记忆宫殿等，分别说明了原理、例子、记忆率和适用场景，帮助学习者快速掌握词汇。可知，文章大概出自一个语言学习博客。故选B。 B Across the world, language and history are connected. As society and tradition change, new words or phrases are created to show the present cultural understanding. Some old phrases and words simply turn into the accepted usages with their backgrounds forgotten. One such phrase “grandfathered in” has become a common one now. Although it often makes people think of the image of a gray-haired, older gentleman, who gets out of trouble because of his age, it actually means that one person or a business has the right to refuse the new rules. A deeper look into the first use of the phrase shows an interesting story in history. It happened in a town in the 1980s, a new law was passed there not to allow illiterates (文盲) to participate in the making of rules as they couldn’t read or write and might not help in the process. The limit was potent because except for the old and children, there were close to 30 percent of young adults in the town who had little or no education and they are disqualified in making rules. Being strong and energetic. They made up an important part of the town’s development. Considering that, some officers in the town didn’t readily accept the rule. Instead, they carefully gave their advice to the head of the town. At the same time, they encouraged these young adults to pass the literacy (读写能力) tests. Thus a “grandfather clause (条款)” was added to allow illiterates to participate as long as they or their grandfathers had once been participants. The clause no doubt helped remove the unfairness and benefited all. The phrase “grandfathered in” is of course still widely used today without being limited to a certain field. But even as culture and tradition change, whether we’re aware of it or not, language has the power to hold our history. 36．According to Paragraph 1, what has happened to some old phrase with time going? A．They have got lost in history. B．Few people can use them correctly. C．They are rarely used in popular culture. D．Few people know much about their history. 37．The phrase “grandfathered in” is used nowadays when ________. A．an old man dislikes new rule B．a person is free from new rules C．a business has a long history and culture D．a businessman fails to follow the market rules 38．What does the underlined word “potent” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Unpopular. B．Powerful. C．Easy. D．Reasonable. 39．What does the author think of the “grandfather clause” in the history? A．Funny. B．Incorrect. C．Positive. D．Disappointing. 40．What does the author intend to tell us in the last paragraph? A．Language and history are always connected. B．The birth of some phrases can be interesting. C．History plays an important role in communication. D．Some phrases are created to show the present culture. 【答案】36．D 37．B 38．B 39．C 40．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲的是作者认为过去的一些短语虽然现在还在使用，但是意思已经发生了变化，作者通过一个例子说明语言和文化是相连的。 36．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Some old phrases and words simply turn into the accepted usages with their backgrounds forgotten.(一些古老的短语和单词只是变成了被接受的用法，而它们的背景却被遗忘了)”可知，随着时间的流逝，很少有人了解一些古老短语的历史。故选D。 37．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Although it often makes people think of the image of a gray-haired, older gentleman, who gets out of trouble because of his age, it actually means that one person or a business has the right to refuse the new rules.(虽然它经常让人们想起一位白发苍苍的老先生，他因为年龄而摆脱了困境，但实际上它意味着一个人或一个企业有权拒绝新的规则)”可知，“grandfathered in”这个短语现在用来表示一个人不受新规则的约束。故选B。 38．词句猜测题。根据文章第三段划线单词之前“It happened in a town in the 1980s, a new law was passed there not to allow illiterates(文盲)to participate in the making of rules as they couldn’t read or write and might not help in the process. The limit was(它发生在20世纪80年代的一个小镇，那里通过了一项新的法律，不允许文盲参与规则的制定，因为他们不会读也不会写，在这个过程中可能没有帮助。这个限制是)”以及划线词之后“because except for the old and children, there were close to 30 percent of young adults in the town who had little or no education. Being strong and energetic, they made up an important part of the town’s development. (因为除了老人和孩子，镇上近30%的年轻人几乎没有受过教育。他们身体强壮，精力充沛，是这个城市发展的重要组成部分。)可知，因为新法律限制的是城市发展重要组成部分的近30%的年轻人，所以这种限制产生的影响一定是巨大的，所以划线词的意思与B项powerful意思相近。故选B项。 39．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Thus a “grandfather clause (条款)” was added to allow illiterates to participate as long as they or their grandfathers had once been participants. The clause no doubt helped remove the unfairness and benefited all.(因此，增加了一项“祖父条款”，允许文盲参与，只要他们或他们的祖父曾经是参与者。这条条款无疑有助于消除不公平，使所有人受益)”可推知，作者认为历史上的“祖父条款”是积极的。故选C。 40．推理判断题。根据最后一段“The phrase “grandfathered in” is of course still widely used today without being limited to a certain field. But even as culture and tradition change, whether we’re aware of it or not, language has the power to hold our history.(“grandfathered in”这个短语当然至今仍被广泛使用，并不局限于某一领域。但是，即使文化和传统在变化，无论我们是否意识到，语言都有保存我们历史的力量)”可推知，作者在最后一段想告诉我们语言和历史总是联系在一起的。故选A。 C The practice of students endlessly copying letters and sentences from a blackboard is a thing of the past With the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphone, writing by hand has become something of nostalgic (怀旧的) skill. However, while today’s educators are using more and more technology in their teaching, many believe basic handwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successful — both in school and in life. Virginia Berninger, professor of educational psychology at the University of Washington, says it’s important to continue teaching handwriting and help children pick up the skill of writing by hand. Berninger and her colleagues carried out a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks — both on a computer and by hand. The study, published in 2009, found that compared with writing on a computer, when writing with a pen and paper, participants wrote longer essays and more complete sentences and had a faster word production rate. In a more recent study, Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a student’s writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to how well they can write. “Spelling makes some of the thinking parts of the brain active which helps us access our vocabulary, word meaning and concepts. It is allowing our written language to connect with ideas.” Berninger said. Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe (转换) “those words in the mind into written symbols on paper or keyboard and screen,” the study, said. Seeing the words in the “mind’s eye” helps children not only to turn their’ ideas into words, says Berninger, but also to spot (发现) spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct them over time. “In our computer age, some people believe that we don’t have to teach spelling because we have spell checks,” she said. “But until a child has a functional spelling ability of about a fifth grade level, they won’t have the knowledge to choose the correct spelling among the options given by the computer.” 41．What makes writing by hand a thing of the past? A．The absence of blackboard in classroom. B．The lack of practice in handwriting. C．The use of new technologies in teaching. D．The popular use of smartphones. 42．Berninger’s study published in 2009 ________. A．indicated that students prefer to write with a pen and paper. B．focused on the difference between writing by hand and on a computer. C．found that good essays are made up of long sentences. D．discussed the importance of writing speed. 43．Which of the following best shows the role of spelling? A．Spelling improves one’s memory of words. B．Spelling benefits the translation from words into ideas. C．Spelling ability is closely related to writing ability. D．Spelling slows down finding exact words to express ideas. 44．What does “mind’s eye” in paragraph 5 mean? A．Imagination. B．Soul. C．Picture. D．Window. 45．What conclusion could be drawn from the passage? A．Computers can help people with their choice of words. B．Spell checks can take the place of spelling teaching. C．Functional spelling ability develops fast in the fifth grade. D．Handwriting still has a place in today’s classrooms. 【答案】41．C 42．B 43．C 44．A 45．D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了随着现代科技的发展，书写渐渐被人们所忽视。但是Berninger的研究表明，书写在现代教学中应该占有一席之地，因为加强拼写有助于学生的发展。 41．细节理解题。根据第一段中“The practice of students endlessly copying letters and sentences from a blackboard is a thing of the past With the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphone, writing by hand has become something of nostalgic (怀旧的) skill.(学生不停地从黑板上抄写字母和句子的做法已成为过去。随着电脑和智能手机等新技术的到来，手写已经成为一种怀旧的技能。)”可知，在教学中使用新技术使手写成为历史。故选C。 42．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Berninger and her colleagues carried out a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks — both on a computer and by hand. The study, published in 2009, found that compared with writing on a computer, when writing with a pen and paper, participants wrote longer essays and more complete sentences and had a faster word production rate.(Berninger和她的同事进行了一项研究，考查学生完成各种写作任务的能力，包括用电脑和手写。这项发表于2009年的研究发现，当参与者用笔和纸写字时，他们写的文章更长，句子更完整，单词生成速度更快。)”可知，Berninger在2009年发表的研究集中在手写和电脑书写的区别上。故选B。 43．细节理解题。根据第四段中“In a more recent study, Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a student’s writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to how well they can write.(在最近的一项研究中，伯宁格研究了拼写在学生写作技能中所扮演的角色，发现孩子们的拼写能力与他们的写作能力息息相关。)”可知，拼写能力与写作能力密切相关，最能体现拼写的作用。故选C。 44．词义猜测题。根据文章第五段“Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe (转换) “those words in the mind into written symbols on paper or keyboard and screen,” the study, said.(该研究指出：“拼写训练能让学生先在脑海中将想法转化为文字，然后再将脑海中这些文字转化为纸张、键盘或屏幕上的书面符号。”)”可知，“mind’s eye”表示将脑海中的文字转化为书面符号，即，心中想象力，与imagination意思相近。故选A。 45．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“However, while today’s educators are using more and more technology in their teaching, many believe basic handwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successful — both in school and in life.(然而，尽管如今的教育工作者在教学中越来越多地使用技术手段，但许多人仍认为，良好的手写能力对于学生在校园和生活中取得成功仍是必不可少的。)”及全文内容可知，本文主要讲述了随着现代科技的发展，书写渐渐被人们所忽视。但是Berninger的研究表明，书写在现代教学中应该占有一席之地，因为加强拼写有助于学生的发展。因此D选项“手写在当今的课堂上仍占有一定的地位。”与本文主旨相符。故选D。 第Ⅱ卷（非选择题） 阅读表达 Maybe you are an average student. You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessary so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here is how. Plan your time carefully. When planning your week, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making the list, you should make a schedule of your time. First arrange your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying. Don’t forget to set aside enough time for entertainment. A weekly schedule may not solve all the problems, but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time. Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this place, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios or TV! When you sit down to study, concentrate on the subject. Make good use of your time in class. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teacher says. Really listening in class means less work later. Taking class notes will help you remember what the teacher says. Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes. Review the important points that your teacher has mentioned in class. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read the material. This will help you understand the next class. If you do these things regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer. Develop a good attitude about the tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. They help you to remember your new knowledge. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t be overly worried. There are other methods that might help you with your studying. You will probably discover many others after you have tried these. 46．What is the best title of the passage? (within 10 words) 47．Please explain the underlined phrase “set aside” in English. (within 5 words) 48．What kind of attitude shall we have about the tests according to the passage? (Within 20 words) 49．Who is the passage written for? (Within 10 words) 50．Which suggestion do you think is the best for you? Why? (Within 30 words.) 【答案】46．How to Become a Better Student？ 47．Reserve or save. 48．We should not be overly worried because tests help us remember knowledge. 49．Average students wanting to improve. 50．I think “Make good use of your time in class” is the best, because listening carefully in class means less work later and helps me understand better. 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章旨在为普通学生提供一套系统且实用的学习方法指导。 【详解】46．主旨大意题。根据首段中的“Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here is how. (任何人只要愿意，都能成为更好的学生。方法如下 。)”可知，本文旨在介绍成为好学生的方法，“How to Become a Better Student? (如何成为更好学生)”适合作本文标题。故填How to Become a Better Student？ 47．词句猜测题。根据画线短语set aside前面的句子“After making the list, you should make a schedule of your time. First arrange your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying. (列出清单后，你应该制定一个时间安排表。首先安排好吃饭、睡觉、穿衣等的时间。然后确定一个合适且固定的学习时间。)”可推断，set aside包含“预留”之意。故填Reserve or save. 48．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. They help you to remember your new knowledge. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t be overly worried. (考试的目的是检验你对某一学科知识的掌握程度。考试有助于你记住新知识。如果你没有通过考试，世界也不会因此而毁灭，所以不要过度担忧。)”可知，我们不要过度担心考试，因为考试帮助我们记住知识。故填We should not be overly worried because tests help us remember knowledge. 49．推理判断题。根据首段中的“Maybe you are an average student. You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessary so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. (也许你是个成绩一般的学生。你可能觉得自己永远都成不了尖子生。然而，这未必如此。任何人，只要愿意，都能成为更好的学生。)”可知，本文的写作对象是想要提高的普通学生。故填Average students wanting to improve. 50．推理判断题。本题需要从五个小标题中作出选择吗，属于开放性试题。我认为Make good use of your time in class. (充分利用你课堂上的时间。)对我最有用，因为在课堂上认真听讲意味着之后的学习任务会减少，还能帮助我更好地理解知识。故填I think “Make good use of your time in class” is the best, because listening carefully in class means less work later and helps me understand better. 四、书信写作 51．假定你是李华，你的英国朋友Peter来信向你咨询如何才能学好中文。请你根据下列要点写封回信。 1．参加中文学习班；2．看中文书刊、电视； 3．学唱中文歌曲；4．交中国朋友。 注意：1．词数120左右； 2．可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； 3．开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 Dear Peter, I’m glad to receive your letter in which you asked for my advice on how to learn Chinese well. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Best wishes Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Peter, I’m glad to receive your letter in which you asked for my advice on how to learn Chinese well.      Here are some practical suggestions for you.
