四、阅读理解
阅读短文,从每题A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳答案。
Memory is like a library in our brain. It stores what we have seen, heard and experienced. However, not everything can be kept well. Many people find it hard to remember new words or important information.
Some factors influence our memory. Stress is one of them. When we feel worried or sad, our brain cannot work as well as usual. That is why we may forget things easily under great pressure. Besides, good habits matter a lot. If you review knowledge from time to time, you will keep it in mind for a longer time. But if you only try to memorize things right before an exam, you will probably forget them soon.
Different people have different memory conditions. In some cases, a person’s memory may become weaker as he grows older. Still, we can take simple steps to improve it. Creating connections between new knowledge and what we already know is a useful method. It helps our brain store information more easily.
1. What does the writer compare memory to?
A. A big book.
B. A library.
C. A hard‑working brain.
D. A busy school.
2. What will happen to our memory when we are under much stress?
A. It will become much stronger.
B. We can remember things more quickly.
C. We may forget things more easily.
D. Our brain will work better than before.
3. What is the writer’s advice for keeping knowledge in mind?
A. Memorize everything just before exams.
B. Review knowledge now and then.
C. Never think about old knowledge.
D. Keep away from all kinds of pressure.
4. What does the underlined word “factors” mean in Chinese?
A. 因素
B. 方法
C. 结果
D. 秘密
5. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Old people always have poor memory.
B. Connections help improve our memory.
C. Stress is good for our memory.
D. We can never change our memory.
阅读短文,从每题A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳答案。
Have you ever forgotten where you put your wallet or ticket? This is quite common in daily life. A recent small experiment shows how our brain works when we try to remember things.
Volunteers were asked to memorize a group of words. Some of them mixed up similar words, while others could retell the whole list clearly. The result told researchers that our brain may react differently to information. When people are in a stable mood, they are more likely to remember details. If they go through strong sadness, their memory will be influenced.
The experiment also tells us that memory is not something we are born with. We can make it better through practice. It does not mean we need to spend hours on it every day. Small daily efforts, like recalling what you have learned after a lecture, can make a difference.
No one has a perfect memory. We should accept our own situation and keep trying to improve it in proper ways.
1. What is the purpose of the experiment?
A. To find out how our brain deals with memory.
B. To teach people to remember more words.
C. To show that everyone has a bad memory.
D. To compare different kinds of lectures.
2. What will happen if people experience strong sadness according to the passage?
A. They will remember more small details.
B. Their memory will be influenced.
C. They can retell stories much better.
D. They will have a stable mood.
3. What does the underlined phrase “make a difference” mean?
A. 制造麻烦
B. 产生影响;起作用
C. 做出选择
D. 浪费时间
4. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. Good memory is only given to lucky people.
B. We must spend hours memorizing every day.
C. Recalling knowledge after class can help our memory.
D. People never mix up similar words.
5. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. The reasons for bad memory and ways to improve it.
B. Different kinds of words for memory tests.
C. How to take part in memory experiments.
D. Why people often lose their wallets and tickets.
任务型阅读
Memory is not something that only depends on natural talent. Many people believe that some persons are born with good memory while others can hardly improve. However, this idea stops them from making progress.
Our mood plays an important role in memory. When we are in a stable state of mind, our brain can deal with information more smoothly. If we go through great sadness or heavy stress, we are more likely to mix up facts and forget important details. It is not wise to push ourselves too hard when we feel upset.
Besides, proper ways help a lot. Instead of trying to memorize everything in a short time, we should review knowledge little by little. We can also create links between new information and what we already know. Retelling what we have learned is another practical skill. It allows our brain to check and fix our memory.
In some cases, people may fail to recall things even if they have learned them before. That does not mean they are poor at memory. They just need to change their learning habits and keep practicing.
1. What stops many people from improving their memory according to the passage?
______________________________________________________________________
2. What will happen to our memory if we are under heavy stress?
______________________________________________________________________
3. What is the writer’s advice for memorizing knowledge?
______________________________________________________________________
4. Why is retelling what we have learned helpful for memory?
______________________________________________________________________
5. What can people do when they cannot recall what they have learned?

Memory is like a library in our brain. It stores what we have seen, heard and experienced. However, not everything can be kept well. Many people find it hard to remember new words or important information.
Some factors influence our memory. Stress is one of them. When we feel worried or sad, our brain cannot work as well as usual. That is why we may forget things easily under great pressure. Besides, good habits matter a lot. If you review knowledge from time to time, you will keep it in mind for a longer time. But if you only try to memorize things right before an exam, you will probably forget them soon.
Different people have different memory conditions. In some cases, a person’s memory may become weaker as he grows older. Still, we can take simple steps to improve it. Creating connections between new knowledge and what we already know is a useful method. It helps our brain store information more easily.

阅读短文,从每题A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳答案。
Have you ever forgotten where you put your wallet or ticket? This is quite common in daily life. A recent small experiment shows how our brain works when we try to remember things.
Volunteers were asked to memorize a group of words. Some of them mixed up similar words, while others could retell the whole list clearly. The result told researchers that our brain may react differently to information. When people are in a stable mood, they are more likely to remember details. If they go through strong sadness, their memory will be influenced.
The experiment also tells us that memory is not something we are born with. We can make it better through practice. It does not mean we need to spend hours on it every day. Small daily efforts, like recalling what you have learned after a lecture, can make a difference.
No one has a perfect memory. We should accept our own situation and keep trying to improve it in proper ways.
1. What is the purpose of the experiment?
A. To find out how our brain deals with memory.
B. To teach people to remember more words.

Memory is not something that only depends on natural talent. Many people believe that some persons are born with good memory while others can hardly improve. However, this idea stops them from making progress.
Our mood plays an important role in memory. When we are in a stable state of mind, our brain can deal with information more smoothly. If we go through great sadness or heavy stress, we are more likely to mix up facts and forget important details. It is not wise to push ourselves too hard when we feel upset.
Besides, proper ways help a lot. Instead of trying to memorize everything in a short time, we should review knowledge little by little. We can also create links between new information and what we already know. Retelling what we have learned is another practical skill. It allows our brain to check and fix our memory.
In some cases, people may fail to recall things even if they have learned them before. That does not mean they are poor at memory. They just need to change their learning habits and keep practicing.
