人教版九年级上册Unit 4 Our Memory单元测试卷 （时间：45分钟，满分：100分） I. 阅读理解（每小题2分，共20分） A Four students have written these tips for the school newspaper about memory improving. Henry A great way to help you remember something is to imagine a picture of it in your mind. For example, to remember the word “smiles”, we can imagine there is a “mile” between the first letter and the last letter. This makes it the longest word in the world. Sarah A good method for remembering the spelling of a word is to make a short sentence with each letter of the word. For example, if you want to remember how to spell the word “because”, you can use the sentence “Big elephants can always understand small elephants.” Paul You will forget something very quickly unless you understand it well. For example, you may have trouble remembering the list of steps in the water cycle. However, it is easier to remember these steps if you understand how the water cycle works. Kate It is important to exercise your brain. For example, you can do new things and change your daily habits. If you walk a different way to school or take a different bus, you will keep your brain active. You can also try a word puzzle (字谜) or learn new skills. 1．The four students have written these tips for ________. A．a picture book B．the class report C．a story magazine D．the school newspaper 2．Who suggests remembering something by imagining a picture of it? A．Paul. B．Henry. C．Sarah. D．Kate. 3．Which example fits Sarah’s memory tip? A．Imagine a red apple to remember “apple”. B．Use the sentence “Father and mother, I love you” for “family”. C．Understand the planet movement to remember the solar system. D．Walk a new way home while you are repeating phone numbers. 4．What is Kate’s idea to improve memory? A．Exercising your brain. B．Drawing pictures often. C．Making short sentences. D．Understanding things well. 5．Which of the following is TRUE according to the four tips? A．Henry’s tip works best for understanding processes. B．Sarah’s tip is only useful for remembering long words. C．Paul’s tip helps with long-term memory of complex ideas. D．Kate’s tip focuses on changing daily habits to relax the brain. B Is there a way to quickly recall information just before taking an exam? Walking backward might help. Scientists from a university in the UK said this activity can help improve short-term memory. In research, researchers asked 114 volunteers to watch a video. After watching the video, the volunteers were divided into three groups. One group was told to walk 10 meters forward. The second group walked 10 meters backward. The third group stood in one place. All three groups were then asked 20 questions about what they saw in the video. The scientists found that the backward-walking group got two more answers correct on average (平均) than the other two groups. This suggests that the link between time and space is important for how our minds form memories. “Time is really expressed through space,” One researcher told the Daily Mail. When you walk backward, you see things from a different angle (角度). This difference helps people bring things to mind that happened in the past. Walking backward could also be helpful for those who often have pain in their knees, according to another team of researchers. They found backward walking keeps our spine (脊柱) strong, which helps to reduce pain in the lower back. Besides, walking backward is also good for the rest of our body. It burns more calories than forward walking, according to New Scientist. This might be why many people like walking backward. Yet, to walk backward safely is an art to be learned. 6．What is paragraph 1 mainly about? A．The reason for memory improvement. B．The purpose of doing a research. C．A scientific finding about walking backward. D．A common problem before exams. 7．According to paragraph 2, what did the volunteers do first? A．They watched a video. B．They were divided into groups. C．They answered 20 questions. D．They walked 10 meters forward. 8．How does walking backward help people? A．It can help people see things more clearly. B．It may help solve health problems completely. C．It may be the best exercise for improving memory. D．It can reduce people’s pain in knees and the lower back. 9．What is the writer’s attitude (态度) towards backward walking? A．Doubtful. B．Supportive. C．Uncertain. D．Worried. 10．What will the writer probably discuss in the next paragraph? A．Bad influence of walking backward. B．Advice on walking backward safely. C．More ways to improve short-term memory. D．History of backward walking studies. II.完形填空（15分） It was a day before Mother’s Day this year.

They were between 18 28. 86 years old. Sauve first asked them to listen to three musical phrases. Then, she told them 29. (watch) a concert. They needed to make a note when they heard the familiar (熟悉的) phrases. To 30. (she) surprise, the older people were just as good at recognizing (辨认) the phrases as the 31. (young) ones were. This shows that our musical memory (记忆) stays the same as we grow old. 32.___________(science) may use this to treat (治疗) illnesses that do bad to people’s memory. Music may help them remember things. Why can we remember music no matter 33. old we are? When we listen to music, the amygdala (杏仁核) in our brain will become fresh again. This makes our brain 34.
