一、阅读理解
Passage 1
The concept of the "leamning curve"is a familiar one in education;it describes the rate at which a person
acquires a new skill over time.Typically,the curve is steep at the beginning,representing rapid initial
progress,and then it flattens out as the learner approaches mastery and improvement becomes more
gradual.However,a new study from the University of California,Ivine,suggests that this traditional
model might be too simplistic,especially for complex,modern-day learning environments.
Researchers led by DI.Emily Carter conducted an experiment with 200 participants who were asked to
learn a new,complex computer programming language.Unlike previous studies that focused on isolated
skills,this study simulated a real-world learning scenario where participants had to juggle multiple tasks:
writing code,debugging errors,and collaborating with a virtual team.What they found was not a smooth
curve,but a series of"staircase"patterns.Participants would experience a period of rapid learning,
followed by a plateau-a time when they seemed to make no progress at all-and then another sudden
surge of improvement.
"The plateaus are not a sign of failure,"Dr.Carter explained in a press release."They represent a period
of consolidation,where the brain is organizing and integrating new information on a deeper level.During
these plateaus,leamners are not actively improving their performance,but they are building the neural
infrastructure for the next leap forward."The study also highlighted the role of emotional resilience.
Learners who viewed plateaus as a natural part of the process,rather than a personal shortcoming,were
40%more likely to break through the plateau and reach higher levels of proficiency.Conversely,those
who became fiustrated and emotional often gave up entirely.
This research has profound implications for education and corporate training.It challenges the prevailing
culture of immediate results and encourages a more patient,long-term perspective on skill acquisition.
"We need to teach leamers that seeing no progress for a while is not a reason to quit,"says Dr.Carter."It
is often a sign that a breakthrough is just around the comer.The key is to keep engaging with the material.
even when it feels like you are going nowhere."
()1.What does the learning curve"traditionally describe?
A.The emotional challenges oflearning
B.The rate of progress in learning new skills

D.The leamner is failing to understand the task.
()4.What is the key factor that helps leamners overcome learning plateaus?

Passage 2
For centuries,memorization-often characterized as"rote leaming"has been the backbone of education
in many parts of the world.Students from East Asia,for instance,have frequently been perceived as
excelling in mathematics and science due to a cultural emphasis on memorizing formulas and facts.
However,in the 21st century,with information available at our fingertips,a fierce debate is raging about
the true value of memorisation in an age of Google and Al.
Critics argue that spending hours memorising facts is a waste of cognitive energy.They advocate for a
shift from knowing that"to"knowing how,"prioritizing critical thinking,creativity,and problem-solving
skills.Why memorize a historical date when you can look it up in seconds?This perspective,which is
prominent in many Westem educational systems,champions project-based leaming,where students apply
knowledge rather than simply recall it.
However,this view is being increasingly challenged by cognitive scientists.A growing body of research
suggests that a"well-stocked"long-term memory is actually a prerequisite for higher-order thinking.The
"expertise reversal effect,"a well-documented phenomenon in psychology,shows that experts can solve
complex problems much faster than novices because they can instantly retrieve relevant information from
their long-term memory without overloading their working memory.For example,a chess grandmaster
doesn't re-analyze every possible move,they recognize patterns from thousands of previously memorized
games."You can't think critically about a blank slate,"argues Dr.David G.of the Max Planck Institute.
"Creativity is not creating something from nothing,it is recombining existing knowledge in novel ways.A
rich memory provides the raw materials for this process."
The truth,as is often the case,lies somewhere in the middle.A modemn approach to learning should not
entirely abandon memorization,but rather transform it.The goal should be"meaningful memorisation"
where facts are leamned within a context and connected to a larger framework ofunderstanding.Instead of
memorizing a list of historical dates,a student might create a timeline that connects events with their
causes and effects,thereby making the information memorable and understandable.The key is to use
memorization not as an end,but as a tool to build the foundational knowledge base upon which true
expertise,critical thinking,and creativity can be constructed
()1.What is the main conflict described in the passage about memorization?
A.The debate between Eastemn and Western teaching methods.
B.The conflict between the value of memorization and critical thinking.
C.The problem of students spending too much time on computers.
D.The difficulty of teaching mathematics without memorization
()2.What do critics of rote leaming primarily value?
A.The ability to recall facts.
B.A cultural emphasis on hard work
C.Higher-order skills like creativity.
D.Memorizing formulas and historical dates
()3.What is the"expertise reversal effect'?
A.Experts often forget basic facts.
B.Experts can solve problems quickly using stored knowledge.
C.Novices leamn faster than experts in new fields.
D.Memorization slows down the thinking process.
()4.According to Dr.David G.,what is the relationship between memory and creativity?
A.Memory hinders creativity.
B.Memory provides the building blocks for creativity.
C.Creativity is more important than memory.
D.Memory and creativity are completely separate
()5.What is the "meaningful memorisation"suggested by the author?
A.Memorizing facts without understanding them.
B.Leamning facts within a context and framework.
C.Using AI tools to remember information.
D.Focusing only on project-based learning.

三、阅读短文回答问题
Read the passage and answer the questions in complete sentences
My name is Elias,and I am a 68-year-old retiree.When I left my job as a postal worker five years ago,I
was looking forward to a life of gardening and watching television.However,after the first six months,I
felt a deep sense of emptiness.My mind,which had been active and engaged for decades,felt like it was
slowly rusting.My grandson,a computer science student,noticed my growing boredom."Grandpa,"he
said one day,"why don't you learn to code?It's like a puzzle for your brain."
I thought he was joking.I could barely send a text message.But the idea of a"puzzle for my brain"stuck
with me.I found a free online course for absolute beginners,aptly called"Coding for the Terified."The
first few lessons were,as the name suggested,tenifying.I didn't understand variables,functions,or loops.
I felt stupid.I remembered a tactic from our class about the leaming curve-that plateaus are normal.So,
instead of giving up,I made a small arrangement to study for just 30 minutes every morning.
Slowly,miraculously,things began to click.I leamed that coding is just a set oflogical steps,a way to
give a machine a set ofinstructions.I built my first simple game,a text-based adventure where you had to
find a treasure in a dark cave.The feeling of accomplishment was extraordinary.It was not about getting
a job,it was about the joy of creating something from nothing using my own mind.
A year later,I can build simple websites.I help the local community center update their site.I have a new
social circle online,discussing coding problems with people from all over the world.My grandson and I
now speak a shared language.This experience has taught me that leamning is not a preparation for life,it is
the essence of life itself.The capacity to leam is the one thing that age cannot take away,as long as we
have the courage to start.
1.Why did Elias initially feel empty after retiing?
2.What suggestion did Elias's grandson give him to solve this problem?
3.What tactic from his class did Elias remember to help him keep studying?
4.Besides the feeling of accomplishment,what other benefits did Elias gain from learning to code?(List
two benefits mentioned in the text)
5.What is the main lesson Elias learned from his experience?
四、短文填空
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
To become a successful lifelong leamer,one must develop a set of effective strategies.First,it's important
to understand the learning 1.
It is rarely a straight line,you will experience a 2.

Good morning,everyone.
It's a great honor to speak here about our new "Old Person,New Skill"program.As we leamn in our
lesson about lifelong learning,education is not just for the young.It is a joumey for all of us,every day.
For our elderly community members,learning a new skill is not just a hobby,it is a key to staying
connected and mentally sharp.It's a powerful tool against loneliness and keeps the mind active.The
emotional and intellectual benefits are huge.
I would like to suggest leaming how to use a video calling app.This simple technique can bridge the
distance between you and your loved ones.Instead ofjust hearing a voice,you can see your
grandchildren grow up,even if they live miles away.It's a timely and wonderful way to strengthen family
bonds
