Scientists divided a class into two groups. They divided the students into groups on purpose. The students took notes in different ways. The first group took notes 1 hand. The second one did it on the computer. The purpose of the study was to find out which method would help the students learn better. The scientists thought Group Two would win. But to their surprise, Group One did 2 better job. Since you take notes by hand, stick to it! Good notes can lead to less stress when test time comes around. Then 3 can you improve your note-taking skill? The following advice can help you. Firstly, try to get yourself ready before class begins. Be familiar with the material that you are going to learn. 4 sure you have your notebooks and pens on the desk. Secondly, take notes wisely while you 5 in class. Many students become busy taking notes and they may fail to follow the teacher. So it is important to know when 6 notes. And remember to write down the key 7 and use shorthand (速记法) if necessary. Thirdly, check your notes after class. You can add some details 8 first. If there is still something missing, compare your notes with others’. Do it with those who take notes 9 . These checks will also increase your chances of understanding what you’ve written. Try the advice above. When you can take notes 10 than before, you will find your lessons easier and more enjoyable. 1．A．on B．in C．by 2．A．a B．an C．the 3．A．why B．what C．how 4．A．Make B．Making C．To make 5．A．listen B．was listening C．are listening 6．A．take B．taking C．to take 7．A．word B．words C．word’s 8．A．you B．your C．yourself 9．A．careful B．carefully C．care 10．A．good B．better C．best 二、完形填空。（每小题1.5分，共15分） 根据短文内容，从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个能填入相应空格内的最佳答案，并把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。 How good is your memory? Can you remember what you ate for breakfast a week ago? Most people find it 11 to remember every detail of their lives. However, our brains are wired to remember what is important for survival. In the past, remembering where to find food or which places were dangerous was a matter of life and death. Today, we don’t face those same 12 , but our memory still works in a similar way. We tend to remember things that are 13 to us—like a friend’s birthday or an important exam date. Scientists have found that our memory works in two main ways: short-term and long-term. Short-term memory holds information for a few seconds, like a phone number you just 14 . Long-term memory stores information for years, like your childhood address. To move information from short-term to long-term memory, we need to 15 it. This is why reviewing your notes after class is so important. 16 , memory is not like a video recording. It can be changed over time. Every time we 17 a memory, we might accidentally change a small detail. This is why eyewitness (目击者) accounts can sometimes be unreliable (不可靠的). 18 , understanding how memory works can help us improve it. Techniques like “spaced repetition” and “mind maps” are not just study tips; they are ways to work 19 our brain’s natural processes. So, the next time you forget where you put your keys, don’t be too hard on yourself. It’s just your brain’s way of deciding what 20 keeping. 11．A．easy B．impossible C．necessary D．helpful 12．A．problems B．dangers C．questions D．changes 13．A．boring B．strange C．important D．similar 14．A．heard B．wrote C．missed D．forgot 15．A．repeat B．change C．ignore D．create 16．A．However B．Therefore C．Besides D．Instead 17．A．forget B．recall C．lose D．store 18．A．Finally B．Suddenly C．Luckily D．Sadly 19．A．against B．with C．for D．without 20．A．starts B．avoids C．practices D．deserves 三、阅读理解。（每小题2分，共30分） 阅读下列材料，从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案，并把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。 A What makes a family memory special? We asked three students to share their most treasured memories. Anna, 14 “My favorite memory is helping my grandma make dumplings every Spring Festival. She would tell me stories about her childhood while we pressed the dumpling edges together. The kitchen was always warm and smelled of ginger and garlic. Even though I’ve moved to the city, the taste of those dumplings still reminds me of home and her love.” Ben, 15 “For me, it’s the annual camping trip with my dad. We don’t go to fancy places; we just set up a tent in the backyard. We stay up late looking at the stars and he teaches me the names of the constellations (星座). It’s not about the camping; it’s about the quiet time we spend together, just talking about everything and nothing.” Clara, 13 “I’ll never forget the day I lost my first tooth. I was at school and I cried because I thought I looked funny. My teacher, Miss Wang, gave me a hug and a shiny sticker. She told me it was a sign that I was growing up. That small act of kindness made me feel safe and happy. It’s a simple memory, but it’s very warm.” 21．What do Anna and her grandma do while making dumplings? A．They watch TV. B．They tell stories. C．They sing songs. D．They play games. 22．Where does Ben go camping with his dad? A．In the backyard. B．In a national park. C．On a mountain. D．By a river. 23．What is the main idea shared by all three students? A．Expensive gifts create the best memories. B．Family trips are the most important thing. C．Simple moments with loved ones are precious. D．School life is full of unforgettable events. B Have you ever forgotten important information? Most people have this experience. Our memory works in simple steps. First, we receive information. Then our brain stores it. Finally, we can get it back when we need it. If any step fails, we will forget things. Many students try to memorize everything in one night before exams. This way does not work well. Our brain needs time to store information. Spreading revision over several days is much better. Imagination and connection are powerful skills. For example, if you want to remember a shopping list, you can imagine each product in your house. The more lively your picture is, the easier you can remember. Remember: good memory does not come overnight. Keep practicing these small skills, and you will see changes. 24．How many steps are there for memory to work? A．Two. B．Three. C．Four. D．Five. 25．What does the writer think of cramming (突击背诵) the night before exams? A．It works very well. B．It wastes much time. C．It is not a good way. D．It helps store information. 26．Which sentence is TRUE? A．We can get good memory in one day. B．Lively imagined pictures help memory. C．Few people forget things in daily life. D．Our brain stores information quickly without time. 27．What is the main idea of the passage? A．How our memory works and ways to improve it B．Why students always forget knowledge C．How to prepare for school exams D．The importance of enough sleep C Have you ever walked into a room and suddenly forgotten why you went there? For example, you stand up to get a book from the bedroom, but when you arrive, you just can’t recall what you wanted. This common experience is called the “doorway effect” by scientists.   Why does it happen? Our brain organizes memories by context. When we cross a doorway, the brain thinks one event ends and another begins. So the old thought is “cleared” to make space for new information.   A study in 2011 showed that students who walked through a door remembered less than those who walked the same distance in one room. This proves the environment change influences memory.   Scientists say it is not a sign of bad memory, just the brain working efficiently. To fight it, you can pause before entering a room and say your goal aloud. 28．The writer begins the passage by ________. A．asking a question B．giving an example C．making a comparison D．telling his own story 29．The “doorway effect” is the experience that ________. A．you can’t recall your purpose after entering a room B．you always lose your books at home C．you have a poor memory from birth D．you forget the face of a friend 30．The underlined word “recall” has the closest meaning to “________”. A．forget B．remember C．write D．change 31．Which of the following may the scientist agree with? A．Walking through doors improves memory. B．The doorway effect means the brain is working efficiently. C．Only old people have this problem. D．You should never cross a doorway. D How does our brain decide what to remember and what to forget? Scientists have discovered that emotion plays a huge role. We are much more likely to remember events that made us feel strong emotions—like joy, fear, or surprise—than events that were boring. This is because of a part of the brain called the amygdala (杏仁核). When we experience something emotional, the amygdala “tags” the memory. It tells the brain, “This is important! Remember this!” This is why you can probably remember exactly what you were doing on your 10th birthday, but you can’t remember what you ate for lunch three Tuesdays ago. This “emotional memory” was very useful for our ancestors. Remembering which berry made them sick (fear) or where they found sweet fruit (joy) helped them survive. Today, it still affects us. A student is more likely to remember a science experiment that ended with a loud bang (surprise) than one that was quiet. However, this can also be a problem. If a student has a very embarrassing moment in class, they might remember it for years, even though it’s not important for survival. Understanding this can help us. If we want to remember something, we should try to connect it to an emotion. Making learning fun and exciting is not just enjoyable; it’s a smart memory strategy. 32．According to the text, which memory is the brain most likely to keep? A．A boring daily routine. B．A quiet moment of rest. C．An event causing strong feelings. D．A list of unrelated facts. 33．What is the function of the amygdala? A．To control body movements. B．To mark important emotional memories. C．To help us forget painful experiences. D．To store long-term memories. 34．Why did the writer mention “our ancestors” in Paragraph 3? A．To explain why emotional memory was useful for survival. B．To compare modern life with ancient times. C．To show that people today are less emotional. D．To describe how they found food. 35．What is the writer’s suggestion for better memory? A．Avoid all emotional experiences. B．Connect what you learn with emotions. C．Only study important survival skills. D．Forget embarrassing moments quickly. 四、口语应用。（每小题2分，共10分） 阅读下面对话，从7个选项中选择5个恰当的句子完成此对话，并把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。 A: Hi, Dr. Lee. I have a problem. I study hard for my history tests, but I always forget the dates and events. B: That’s a common problem. 36 A: I usually just read the textbook over and over again. B: That’s not very effective. 37 Try connecting the events to a story or a picture in your mind. A: 38 Does that really work? B: Yes, it does. Our brains remember stories much better than lists of facts. 39 A: That sounds interesting. I’ll try that. B: Also, make sure you get enough sleep. 40 A: I didn’t know that. Thanks for your advice! A．How do you study now? B．That’s why I suggest using stories to remember. C．Sleep helps your brain store memories. D．You should try a different method. E．I prefer to study in the library. F．Can you give me an example? G．I have trouble with maths, too. 五、任务型阅读。（41-42小题，每小题2分；43-44小题，每小题3分；共10分） 阅读下文并回答问题。 Remember to listen to music. It might just improve your memory.   Scientists have found that learning to play an instrument, including the piano and violin, is good for children's memory.   Researchers at a music school have found that kids who insisted on practicing those instruments over a period of 3 years were more likely to have better memory skills than those who seldom did. The study followed about 200 students in primary schools over 3 years, and tested them on memory tasks every six months.   Toward the end of the study, the researchers started asking them questions about their daily memory. For example, “Do you have more trouble than usual remembering a short list of things, such as a shopping list?” A growing number of “yes” answers can mean their memory is declining.   The participants were divided into five groups, based on how long they practiced each day, from two hours in the longest group to just ten minutes. The two-hour practicers were 34 percent less likely to be forgetful. And the results were even better if the children happened to learn rhythm-rich music. Besides, those who listened to classical music often were 47 percent less likely to become forgetful, compared with those who never did.   “Our studies provide further evidence that art activities can be important to keep your brain healthy,” the researchers said. 41．How long did the researchers follow the participants in the study?（不超过5个词）   42．According to the 4th paragraph, what can mean a child's memory is becoming worse?（不超过15个词）   43．According to the 5th paragraph, what kind of music is good for memory?（不超过10个词）   44．What do the researchers think the studies can prove?（不超过15个词）   六、完成句子。（45-52小题，每空1分；53小题2分；共10分） 阅读短文，根据方框中的内容和各小题的提示，完成句子。 1. It really makes perfect.(一般疑问句) 2. 他指出练习只影响人们技能差异的一小部分。(完成译句) 3. Our development also has to do with genes, age and natural talent.(划线部分提问) 4.

Everyone has experienced forgetfulness—forgetting where you put your keys, the name of a new friend, or a task you were supposed to do. But don’t worry. It‘s completely normal. The human brain is complex, and forgetting is a natural part of how it works. There are two main types of memory: short-term memory and long-term memory. Short-term memory is like a temporary storage space. It holds small amounts of information for a short time, such as a phone number you just looked up. Long-term memory, on the other hand, is for things you need to remember for a longer period, like your birthday or a skill you’ve learned. The good news is that we can improve our memory by using a few clever strategies. First, “use it or lose it.” The more you review and repeat information, the stronger your memory becomes. For example, explaining what you‘ve learned to someone else is a great way to practice. Second, connect new information to something you already know. This is called “linking.” For instance, if you’re learning about a new country, think about what you already know about its culture. Third, use your senses. Creating a picture in your mind, making a mind map, or even singing a song with facts can make them more memorable. Finally, leading a healthy lifestyle also helps your memory. Getting enough sleep is crucial because your brain organizes memories while you rest. Eating a balanced diet and exercising regularly also keep your brain in good condition. So, if you find yourself forgetting things from time to time, try these methods. With practice, you can certainly improve your memory and keep your brain sharp. 概要部分： Everyone experiences forgetting, which is 50 . There are two types of memory: short-term and long-term. The key to improving memory lies in using effective strategies. We can 51 by reviewing regularly and practicing, 52 , and using our senses. Moreover, 53 like getting enough sleep and a balanced diet also play an important role in keeping our memory sharp. 八、书面表达。（满分20分） 54．假如你是李华，你曾因健忘而在学习或生活中遇到过麻烦。请你根据以下提示，用英语写一篇日记，记录你的经历和解决方法。 提示要点： 1. 你遇到了什么记忆问题（例如：忘记带作业、忘记妈妈交代的事情等）； 2. 这个问题给你带来了什么困扰； 3. 你用了什么方法来解决这个问题（至少两种方法）； 4. 你的感受或收获。 要求： 1. 必须包含所给要点，可适当发挥； 2. 语句通顺，意思连贯，语法正确，书写规范； 3. 文中不得出现真实人名、校名或地名； 4. 词数80左右。 _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司1 / 14 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。Why don't we make flash cards to remember new words?

Can you remember what you ate for breakfast a week ago? Most people find it 11 to remember every detail of their lives. However, our brains are wired to remember what is important for survival. In the past, remembering where to find food or which places were dangerous was a matter of life and death. Today, we don’t face those same 12 , but our memory still works in a similar way. We tend to remember things that are 13 to us—like a friend’s birthday or an important exam date. Scientists have found that our memory works in two main ways: short-term and long-term. Short-term memory holds information for a few seconds, like a phone number you just 14 . Long-term memory stores information for years, like your childhood address. To move information from short-term to long-term memory, we need to 15 it. This is why reviewing your notes after class is so important. 16 , memory is not like a video recording. It can be changed over time. Every time we 17 a memory, we might accidentally change a small detail. This is why eyewitness (目击者) accounts can sometimes be unreliable (不可靠的). 18 , understanding how memory works can help us improve it. Techniques like “spaced repetition” and “mind maps” are not just study tips; they are ways to work 19 our brain’s natural processes. So, the next time you forget where you put your keys, don’t be too hard on yourself. It’s just your brain’s way of deciding what 20 keeping. 11．A．easy B．impossible C．necessary D．helpful 12．A．problems B．dangers C．questions D．changes 13．A．boring B．strange C．important D．similar 14．A．heard B．wrote C．missed D．forgot 15．A．repeat B．change C．ignore D．create 16．A．However B．Therefore C．Besides D．Instead 17．A．forget B．recall C．lose D．store 18．A．Finally B．Suddenly C．Luckily D．Sadly 19．A．against B．with C．for D．without 20．A．starts B．avoids C．practices D．deserves 三、阅读理解。（每小题2分，共30分） 阅读下列材料，从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案，并把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。 A What makes a family memory special? We asked three students to share their most treasured memories. Anna, 14 “My favorite memory is helping my grandma make dumplings every Spring Festival. She would tell me stories about her childhood while we pressed the dumpling edges together. The kitchen was always warm and smelled of ginger and garlic. Even though I’ve moved to the city, the taste of those dumplings still reminds me of home and her love.” Ben, 15 “For me, it’s the annual camping trip with my dad. We don’t go to fancy places; we just set up a tent in the backyard. We stay up late looking at the stars and he teaches me the names of the constellations (星座). It’s not about the camping; it’s about the quiet time we spend together, just talking about everything and nothing.” Clara, 13 “I’ll never forget the day I lost my first tooth. I was at school and I cried because I thought I looked funny. My teacher, Miss Wang, gave me a hug and a shiny sticker. She told me it was a sign that I was growing up. That small act of kindness made me feel safe and happy. It’s a simple memory, but it’s very warm.” 21．What do Anna and her grandma do while making dumplings? A．They watch TV. B．They tell stories. C．They sing songs. D．They play games. 22．Where does Ben go camping with his dad? A．In the backyard. B．In a national park. C．On a mountain. D．By a river. 23．What is the main idea shared by all three students? A．Expensive gifts create the best memories. B．Family trips are the most important thing. C．Simple moments with loved ones are precious. D．School life is full of unforgettable events. B Have you ever forgotten important information? Most people have this experience. Our memory works in simple steps. First, we receive information. Then our brain stores it. Finally, we can get it back when we need it. If any step fails, we will forget things. Many students try to memorize everything in one night before exams. This way does not work well. Our brain needs time to store information. Spreading revision over several days is much better. Imagination and connection are powerful skills. For example, if you want to remember a shopping list, you can imagine each product in your house. The more lively your picture is, the easier you can remember. Remember: good memory does not come overnight. Keep practicing these small skills, and you will see changes. 24．How many steps are there for memory to work? A．Two. B．Three. C．Four. D．Five. 25．What does the writer think of cramming (突击背诵) the night before exams? A．It works very well. B．It wastes much time. C．It is not a good way. D．It helps store information. 26．Which sentence is TRUE? A．We can get good memory in one day. B．Lively imagined pictures help memory. C．Few people forget things in daily life. D．Our brain stores information quickly without time. 27．What is the main idea of the passage? A．How our memory works and ways to improve it B．Why students always forget knowledge C．How to prepare for school exams D．The importance of enough sleep C Have you ever walked into a room and suddenly forgotten why you went there? For example, you stand up to get a book from the bedroom, but when you arrive, you just can’t recall what you wanted. This common experience is called the “doorway effect” by scientists.   Why does it happen? Our brain organizes memories by context. When we cross a doorway, the brain thinks one event ends and another begins. So the old thought is “cleared” to make space for new information.   A study in 2011 showed that students who walked through a door remembered less than those who walked the same distance in one room. This proves the environment change influences memory.   Scientists say it is not a sign of bad memory, just the brain working efficiently. To fight it, you can pause before entering a room and say your goal aloud. 28．The writer begins the passage by ________. A．asking a question B．giving an example C．making a comparison D．telling his own story 29．The “doorway effect” is the experience that ________. A．you can’t recall your purpose after entering a room B．you always lose your books at home C．you have a poor memory from birth D．you forget the face of a friend 30．The underlined word “recall” has the closest meaning to “________”. A．forget B．remember C．write D．change 31．Which of the following may the scientist agree with? A．Walking through doors improves memory. B．The doorway effect means the brain is working efficiently. C．Only old people have this problem. D．You should never cross a doorway. D How does our brain decide what to remember and what to forget? Scientists have discovered that emotion plays a huge role. We are much more likely to remember events that made us feel strong emotions—like joy, fear, or surprise—than events that were boring. This is because of a part of the brain called the amygdala (杏仁核). When we experience something emotional, the amygdala “tags” the memory. It tells the brain, “This is important! Remember this!” This is why you can probably remember exactly what you were doing on your 10th birthday, but you can’t remember what you ate for lunch three Tuesdays ago. This “emotional memory” was very useful for our ancestors. Remembering which berry made them sick (fear) or where they found sweet fruit (joy) helped them survive. Today, it still affects us. A student is more likely to remember a science experiment that ended with a loud bang (surprise) than one that was quiet. However, this can also be a problem. If a student has a very embarrassing moment in class, they might remember it for years, even though it’s not important for survival. Understanding this can help us. If we want to remember something, we should try to connect it to an emotion. Making learning fun and exciting is not just enjoyable; it’s a smart memory strategy. 32．According to the text, which memory is the brain most likely to keep? A．A boring daily routine. B．A quiet moment of rest. C．An event causing strong feelings. D．A list of unrelated facts. 33．What is the function of the amygdala? A．To control body movements. B．To mark important emotional memories. C．To help us forget painful experiences. D．To store long-term memories. 34．Why did the writer mention “our ancestors” in Paragraph 3? A．To explain why emotional memory was useful for survival. B．To compare modern life with ancient times. C．To show that people today are less emotional. D．To describe how they found food. 35．What is the writer’s suggestion for better memory? A．Avoid all emotional experiences. B．Connect what you learn with emotions. C．Only study important survival skills. D．Forget embarrassing moments quickly. 四、口语应用。（每小题2分，共10分） 阅读下面对话，从7个选项中选择5个恰当的句子完成此对话，并把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。 A: Hi, Dr. Lee. I have a problem.

A．How do you study now? B．That’s why I suggest using stories to remember. C．Sleep helps your brain store memories. D．You should try a different method. E．I prefer to study in the library.

It might just improve your memory.   Scientists have found that learning to play an instrument, including the piano and violin, is good for children's memory.   Researchers at a music school have found that kids who insisted on practicing those instruments over a period of 3 years were more likely to have better memory skills than those who seldom did. The study followed about 200 students in primary schools over 3 years, and tested them on memory tasks every six months.   Toward the end of the study, the researchers started asking them questions about their daily memory. For example, “Do you have more trouble than usual remembering a short list of things, such as a shopping list?” A growing number of “yes” answers can mean their memory is declining.   The participants were divided into five groups, based on how long they practiced each day, from two hours in the longest group to just ten minutes. The two-hour practicers were 34 percent less likely to be forgetful. And the results were even better if the children happened to learn rhythm-rich music. Besides, those who listened to classical music often were 47 percent less likely to become forgetful, compared with those who never did.   “Our studies provide further evidence that art activities can be important to keep your brain healthy,” the researchers said. 41．How long did the researchers follow the participants in the study?（不超过5个词）   42．According to the 4th paragraph, what can mean a child's memory is becoming worse?（不超过15个词）   43．According to the 5th paragraph, what kind of music is good for memory?（不超过10个词）   44．What do the researchers think the studies can prove?（不超过15个词）   六、完成句子。（45-52小题，每空1分；53小题2分；共10分） 阅读短文，根据方框中的内容和各小题的提示，完成句子。 1.

Everyone has experienced forgetfulness—forgetting where you put your keys, the name of a new friend, or a task you were supposed to do. But don’t worry. It‘s completely normal. The human brain is complex, and forgetting is a natural part of how it works. There are two main types of memory: short-term memory and long-term memory. Short-term memory is like a temporary storage space. It holds small amounts of information for a short time, such as a phone number you just looked up. Long-term memory, on the other hand, is for things you need to remember for a longer period, like your birthday or a skill you’ve learned. The good news is that we can improve our memory by using a few clever strategies. First, “use it or lose it.” The more you review and repeat information, the stronger your memory becomes. For example, explaining what you‘ve learned to someone else is a great way to practice. Second, connect new information to something you already know. This is called “linking.” For instance, if you’re learning about a new country, think about what you already know about its culture. Third, use your senses. Creating a picture in your mind, making a mind map, or even singing a song with facts can make them more memorable. Finally, leading a healthy lifestyle also helps your memory. Getting enough sleep is crucial because your brain organizes memories while you rest. Eating a balanced diet and exercising regularly also keep your brain in good condition. So, if you find yourself forgetting things from time to time, try these methods. With practice, you can certainly improve your memory and keep your brain sharp. 概要部分： Everyone experiences forgetting, which is 50 . There are two types of memory: short-term and long-term. The key to improving memory lies in using effective strategies. We can 51 by reviewing regularly and practicing, 52 , and using our senses. Moreover, 53 like getting enough sleep and a balanced diet also play an important role in keeping our memory sharp. 八、书面表达。（满分20分） 54．假如你是李华，你曾因健忘而在学习或生活中遇到过麻烦。请你根据以下提示，用英语写一篇日记，记录你的经历和解决方法。 提示要点： 1. 你遇到了什么记忆问题（例如：忘记带作业、忘记妈妈交代的事情等）； 2. 这个问题给你带来了什么困扰； 3. 你用了什么方法来解决这个问题（至少两种方法）； 4. 你的感受或收获。 要求： 1. 必须包含所给要点，可适当发挥； 2. 语句通顺，意思连贯，语法正确，书写规范； 3. 文中不得出现真实人名、校名或地名； 4. 词数80左右。 _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________ 试题 第3页（共8页） 试题 第4页（共8页） 试题 第1页（共8页） 试题 第2页（共8页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026-2027学年九年级上册英语单元自测·重庆专用 Unit 4 Our Memory 学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________分数：___________ （时间：120分钟，满分：150分） 第一部分 听力测试（共五小节，满分35分） 第一节（每小题1分，共6分） 听两遍。根据你所听到的句子，从A、B、C三个选项中选出最恰当的答语，并把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。 1． A．That sounds good.

The trick is to put the things into small groups. For example, imagine you need to go to the supermarket to buy apples, pens, milk, notebooks, and bananas. Don’t try to remember them all at once. Instead, you can make three groups. The first group can be “fruits”: apples and bananas. The second group can be “school things”: pens and notebooks. And milk is on its own. Now you just need to remember the groups and the things in them. This method makes remembering much easier because your brain likes organized information. You can use this trick for shopping, and it is also very helpful for studying. 第五节（每小题2分，共8分） 听两遍。根据你所听到的演讲内容，补全笔记。每空1词，并把答案填写在答题卡上对应的位置。 How to 21 our memory Fact students in Grade 9 can’t remember well Bad habits studying for too long not sleeping enough learning in a 22 environment Suggestions connect information with pictures or 23 repeat what we’ve learned from time to time take 24 and sleep well These suggestions can help us students have a good memory. Also, they can help us to do better in exams. 【答案】21．improve 22．noisy 23．stories 24．breaks 【原文】 Many of us in Grade Nine are facing more study pressure and can’t remember what we’ve learned. This may be caused by some unhealthy habits like studying for too long without a break, not sleeping enough, or always learning in a noisy environment. The good news is we can improve our memory with the following ways. First, try to connect information with pictures or stories. Our brains remember interesting things more easily. For example, when learning English words, we can imagine a fun scene related to their meanings. Second, make sure we repeat what we’ve learned from time to time. Don’t just study before exams. Go over our notes the next day and again a few days later. Third, take breaks and sleep well. Short breaks during study help our brains relax. Also, try to sleep eight hours each night. While we sleep, our brains organize what we’ve learned. I hope these tips help us make our memory better, which is helpful to do better in exams. 第二部分 笔试部分（共115分） 一、语法选择。（每小题1分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从A、B、C三个选项中选出一个语法正确的答案，并把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。 A study has been done at a university.

When you can take notes 10 than before, you will find your lessons easier and more enjoyable. 1．A．on B．in C．by 2．A．a B．an C．the 3．A．why B．what C．how 4．A．Make B．Making C．To make 5．A．listen B．was listening C．are listening 6．A．take B．taking C．to take 7．A．word B．words C．word’s 8．A．you B．your C．yourself 9．A．careful B．carefully C．care 10．A．good B．better C．best 【答案】 1．C 2．A 3．C 4．A 5．C 6．C 7．B 8．C 9．B 10．B 【导语】本文通过一项研究对比了用手记笔记和用电脑记笔记的效果，并提供了提高记笔记技巧的建议，帮助学生更高效地学习。 【详解】1．句意：第一组学生手写记笔记。 根据下文“Since you take notes by hand…”可知，此处是by hand，表达“用手（手写）”。by“通过”，符合语境。on“在……上面”、in“在……里面”，都不能和hand构成这个固定短语，均不符合语境。 2．句意：但令他们惊讶的是，第一组做得更好。 根据下文“better job”，job是可数名词单数，此处表示泛指，且better是以辅音音素开头的单词。a“一个”，符合用法。an用于元音音素开头的单词前；the是定冠词，表特指，均不符合语境。 3．句意：那么你要如何提升记笔记的技巧呢？ 根据“The following advice can help you.”，可知此处是询问方法。how“如何，怎样”，符合语境。why“为什么”（问原因）、what“什么”（问事物），均不符合语境。 4．句意：确保你的笔记本和笔放在桌子上。 根据句子结构，这是祈使句，要用动词原形开头。Make符合语境。Making是动名词形式；To make是不定式，都不能直接构成祈使句，均不符合语境。 5．句意：其次，当你在课堂上听课的时候要明智地记笔记。 主句是祈使句，while引导的时间状语从句常用现在进行时。are listening（现在进行时），符合语境。listen是一般现在时；was listening是过去进行时，时态不匹配，均不符合语境。 6．句意：所以知道什么时候记笔记很重要。 此处是“疑问词+不定式”的结构，“when to take notes”作动词know的宾语。take是动词原形；taking是动名词，都不能用在when后面构成这个结构，均不符合语境。 7．句意：记得写下关键词，必要时使用速记法。 “key words”是固定搭配，意为“关键词”，要用复数形式表示泛指。words“单词（复数）”，符合语境。word是单数；word’s是名词所有格，均不符合语境。 8．句意：你可以先自己补充一些细节。 此处表达“亲自、自己”，需要反身代词。yourself“你自己”，符合语境。you“你”（人称代词主格/宾格）；your“你的”（形容词性物主代词），均不符合语境。 9．句意：和那些认真记笔记的同学对照笔记。 此处修饰动词短语take notes，需要用副词。carefully“认真地（副词）”，用来修饰动词，符合语境。careful“认真的（形容词）”，只能修饰名词；care“关心（动词/名词）”，均不符合语境。 10．句意：当你记笔记比以前更好的时候，你会发现上课变得更轻松、更有趣。 空处修饰take notes，结合“than before”可知，要用副词比较级，better“更好（比较级）”符合语境。good“好的（形容词原级，不能修饰动词）”；best“最好（最高级）”，均不符合语境。 二、完形填空。（每小题1.5分，共15分） 根据短文内容，从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个能填入相应空格内的最佳答案，并把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。 How good is your memory? Can you remember what you ate for breakfast a week ago? Most people find it 11 to remember every detail of their lives. However, our brains are wired to remember what is important for survival. In the past, remembering where to find food or which places were dangerous was a matter of life and death. Today, we don’t face those same 12 , but our memory still works in a similar way. We tend to remember things that are 13 to us—like a friend’s birthday or an important exam date. Scientists have found that our memory works in two main ways: short-term and long-term. Short-term memory holds information for a few seconds, like a phone number you just 14 . Long-term memory stores information for years, like your childhood address. To move information from short-term to long-term memory, we need to 15 it. This is why reviewing your notes after class is so important. 16 , memory is not like a video recording. It can be changed over time. Every time we 17 a memory, we might accidentally change a small detail. This is why eyewitness (目击者) accounts can sometimes be unreliable (不可靠的). 18 , understanding how memory works can help us improve it. Techniques like “spaced repetition” and “mind maps” are not just study tips; they are ways to work 19 our brain’s natural processes. So, the next time you forget where you put your keys, don’t be too hard on yourself. It’s just your brain’s way of deciding what 20 keeping. 11．A．easy B．impossible C．necessary D．helpful 12．A．problems B．dangers C．questions D．changes 13．A．boring B．strange C．important D．similar 14．A．heard B．wrote C．missed D．forgot 15．A．repeat B．change C．ignore D．create 16．A．However B．Therefore C．Besides D．Instead 17．A．forget B．recall C．lose D．store 18．A．Finally B．Suddenly C．Luckily D．Sadly 19．A．against B．with C．for D．without 20．A．starts B．avoids C．practices D．deserves 【答案】 11．B 12．B 13．C 14．A 15．A 16．A 17．B 18．C 19．B 20．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，解释了人类记忆的两种主要方式（短期和长期记忆）以及记忆的可变性，并提供了一些利用大脑自然机制来改善记忆的方法。 【详解】11．句意：大多数人发现要记住他们生活中的每一个细节是不可能的。 前文提问“你能记住一周前早餐吃了什么吗？”暗示大多数人无法记住所有细节，因此应用impossible（不可能的）。easy意为“容易的”，necessary意为“必要的”，helpful意为“有帮助的”，均不符合“记不住”的普遍情况。 12．句意：今天，我们不再面对同样的危险……。 前文提到过去记住食物地点和危险地点是生死攸关的事，现在生存威胁减少，因此应用dangers（危险）。problems意为“问题”，questions意为“问题（疑问）”，changes意为“变化”，均不能准确对应“生命危险”的具体内容。 13．句意：我们倾向于记住对我们重要的事情——比如朋友的生日或重要的考试日期。 生日和考试日期对个人具有重要性，应用important（重要的）。boring意为“无聊的”，strange意为“奇怪的”，similar意为“相似的”，均不符合这些例子的特征。 14．句意：短期记忆保存信息几秒钟，比如你刚刚听到的电话号码。 刚听到的电话号码在短期记忆中停留片刻，应用heard（听到）。wrote意为“写下”，missed意为“错过”，forgot意为“忘记”，均不符合“刚获得信息”的短暂保存情境。 15．句意：为了把信息从短期记忆转移到长期记忆，我们需要重复它。 后文提到课后复习笔记的重要性，说明需要“重复”来巩固，应用repeat（重复）。change意为“改变”，ignore意为“忽视”，create意为“创造”，均不能解释“复习”的作用。 16．句意：然而，记忆不像录像。 前文讲述记忆的转化机制，后文指出记忆会随时间变化，二者是转折关系，应用However（然而）。Therefore意为“因此”，Besides意为“此外”，Instead意为“相反”，均不符合转折逻辑。 17．句意：每次我们回忆一段记忆，我们可能会不小心改变一个小细节。 回忆时可能改变细节，应用recall（回忆）。forget意为“忘记”，lose意为“丢失”，store意为“储存”，均不能与“改变细节”构成因果关系。 18．句意：幸运的是，理解记忆如何工作可以帮助我们改进它。 前文提到记忆不可靠，后文说理解机制能帮助改进，是积极转向，应用Luckily（幸运地）。Finally意为“最终”，Suddenly意为“突然”，Sadly意为“悲伤地”，均不能表达这种幸运的转折。 19．句意：像“间隔重复”和“思维导图”这类技巧不只是学习小窍门，更是顺应我们大脑自然运作规律的方法。 “work with”表示“与……配合”，即顺应大脑的运作方式。against意为“反对”，for意为“为……”，without意为“没有”，均不符合“利用自然过程”的含义。 20．句意：这只是你大脑决定什么值得保留的方式。 “deserves keeping”表示“值得保留”，应用deserves。starts意为“开始”，avoids意为“避免”，practices意为“练习”，均不能表达“有价值而保留”的含义。 三、阅读理解。（每小题2分，共30分） 阅读下列材料，从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案，并把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。 A What makes a family memory special? We asked three students to share their most treasured memories. Anna, 14 “My favorite memory is helping my grandma make dumplings every Spring Festival. She would tell me stories about her childhood while we pressed the dumpling edges together. The kitchen was always warm and smelled of ginger and garlic. Even though I’ve moved to the city, the taste of those dumplings still reminds me of home and her love.” Ben, 15 “For me, it’s the annual camping trip with my dad. We don’t go to fancy places; we just set up a tent in the backyard. We stay up late looking at the stars and he teaches me the names of the constellations (星座). It’s not about the camping; it’s about the quiet time we spend together, just talking about everything and nothing.” Clara, 13 “I’ll never forget the day I lost my first tooth. I was at school and I cried because I thought I looked funny. My teacher, Miss Wang, gave me a hug and a shiny sticker. She told me it was a sign that I was growing up. That small act of kindness made me feel safe and happy. It’s a simple memory, but it’s very warm.” 21．What do Anna and her grandma do while making dumplings? A．They watch TV. B．They tell stories. C．They sing songs. D．They play games. 22．Where does Ben go camping with his dad? A．In the backyard. B．In a national park. C．On a mountain. D．By a river. 23．What is the main idea shared by all three students? A．Expensive gifts create the best memories. B．Family trips are the most important thing. C．Simple moments with loved ones are precious. D．School life is full of unforgettable events. 【答案】21．B 22．A 23．C 【导语】本篇是记叙文，主要讲述三位学生分享各自珍贵的回忆，这些回忆都来自和身边人相处的简单温暖瞬间。 【详解】21．原文Anna段落“She would tell me stories about her childhood while we pressed the dumpling edges together.”，由此可知Anna和奶奶包饺子的时候会讲故事。 22．原文Ben段落“We don’t go to fancy places; we just set up a tent in the backyard.”，由此可知Ben和爸爸在后院露营。 23．三个人的回忆分别是和奶奶包饺子、和爸爸后院露营、老师善意的安慰，都是和爱的人相处的简单珍贵时刻，由此可知三位学生共同表达的主旨是和爱的人相处的简单瞬间十分珍贵。 B Have you ever forgotten important information? Most people have this experience. Our memory works in simple steps. First, we receive information. Then our brain stores it. Finally, we can get it back when we need it. If any step fails, we will forget things. Many students try to memorize everything in one night before exams. This way does not work well. Our brain needs time to store information. Spreading revision over several days is much better. Imagination and connection are powerful skills. For example, if you want to remember a shopping list, you can imagine each product in your house. The more lively your picture is, the easier you can remember. Remember: good memory does not come overnight. Keep practicing these small skills, and you will see changes. 24．How many steps are there for memory to work? A．Two. B．Three. C．Four. D．Five. 25．What does the writer think of cramming (突击背诵) the night before exams? A．It works very well. B．It wastes much time. C．It is not a good way. D．It helps store information. 26．Which sentence is TRUE? A．We can get good memory in one day. B．Lively imagined pictures help memory. C．Few people forget things in daily life. D．Our brain stores information quickly without time. 27．What is the main idea of the passage? A．How our memory works and ways to improve it B．Why students always forget knowledge C．How to prepare for school exams D．The importance of enough sleep 【答案】24．B 25．C 26．B 27．A 【导语】本文讲解了记忆的运作过程，指出考前突击背诵的弊端，介绍了分段复习、想象联想两种提升记忆力的方法，并告诉我们坚持练习相关技巧才能拥有良好的记忆力。 【详解】24．根据第一段内容“First, we receive information. Then our brain stores it. Finally, we can get it back...”可知，记忆运作分为接收、存储和提取三个步骤。 25．根据第二段中“Many students try to memorize everything in one night before exams. This way does not work well.”可知，作者明确指出考前突击背诵效果不好，不是一个好方法。 26．根据第三段中“The more lively your picture is, the easier you can remember.”可知，生动的想象图片有助于记忆。 27．文章第一段介绍了记忆运作的三个步骤，第二、三段提供了改善记忆的具体方法（如分散复习、利用想象联想），最后一段总结练习的重要性。因此全文主旨是记忆的工作原理及提升方法。 C Have you ever walked into a room and suddenly forgotten why you went there? For example, you stand up to get a book from the bedroom, but when you arrive, you just can’t recall what you wanted. This common experience is called the “doorway effect” by scientists.   Why does it happen? Our brain organizes memories by context. When we cross a doorway, the brain thinks one event ends and another begins. So the old thought is “cleared” to make space for new information.   A study in 2011 showed that students who walked through a door remembered less than those who walked the same distance in one room. This proves the environment change influences memory.   Scientists say it is not a sign of bad memory, just the brain working efficiently. To fight it, you can pause before entering a room and say your goal aloud. 28．The writer begins the passage by ________. A．asking a question B．giving an example C．making a comparison D．telling his own story 29．The “doorway effect” is the experience that ________. A．you can’t recall your purpose after entering a room B．you always lose your books at home C．you have a poor memory from birth D．you forget the face of a friend 30．The underlined word “recall” has the closest meaning to “________”. A．forget B．remember C．write D．change 31．Which of the following may the scientist agree with? A．Walking through doors improves memory. B．The doorway effect means the brain is working efficiently. C．Only old people have this problem. D．You should never cross a doorway. 【答案】28．A 29．A 30．B 31．B 【导语】本文主要介绍了科学家所说的“门口效应”这一现象，即人们穿过门口进入另一个房间时容易突然忘记原本目的，并解释了其背后大脑按环境上下文整理记忆的工作原理。 【详解】28．根据文章第一句“Have you ever walked into a room and suddenly forgotten why you went there?”是一个一般疑问句，可知作者通过提问的方式引出文章话题，吸引读者兴趣。 29．根据第一段内容“For example, you stand up to get a book from the bedroom, but when you arrive, you just can't recall what you wanted. This common experience is called the 'doorway effect'...”可知，“门口效应”指的是走进房间后突然忘记自己目的的经历。 30．根据上下文语境，作者描述走到卧室却想不起来要拿书的情况，此处“can't recall what you wanted”意为“想不起你想要什么”，因此recall意为“记起、回想”，与remember“记得；记起”意思最接近。 31．根据文章最后一段“Scientists say it is not a sign of bad memory, just the brain working efficiently.”可知，科学家认为这种现象不是记忆力差的表现，而是大脑高效工作的体现。 D How does our brain decide what to remember and what to forget? Scientists have discovered that emotion plays a huge role. We are much more likely to remember events that made us feel strong emotions—like joy, fear, or surprise—than events that were boring. This is because of a part of the brain called the amygdala (杏仁核). When we experience something emotional, the amygdala “tags” the memory. It tells the brain, “This is important! Remember this!” This is why you can probably remember exactly what you were doing on your 10th birthday, but you can’t remember what you ate for lunch three Tuesdays ago. This “emotional memory” was very useful for our ancestors. Remembering which berry made them sick (fear) or where they found sweet fruit (joy) helped them survive. Today, it still affects us. A student is more likely to remember a science experiment that ended with a loud bang (surprise) than one that was quiet. However, this can also be a problem. If a student has a very embarrassing moment in class, they might remember it for years, even though it’s not important for survival. Understanding this can help us. If we want to remember something, we should try to connect it to an emotion. Making learning fun and exciting is not just enjoyable; it’s a smart memory strategy. 32．According to the text, which memory is the brain most likely to keep? A．A boring daily routine. B．A quiet moment of rest. C．An event causing strong feelings. D．A list of unrelated facts. 33．What is the function of the amygdala? A．To control body movements. B．To mark important emotional memories. C．To help us forget painful experiences. D．To store long-term memories. 34．Why did the writer mention “our ancestors” in Paragraph 3? A．To explain why emotional memory was useful for survival. B．To compare modern life with ancient times. C．To show that people today are less emotional. D．To describe how they found food. 35．What is the writer’s suggestion for better memory? A．Avoid all emotional experiences. B．Connect what you learn with emotions. C．Only study important survival skills. D．Forget embarrassing moments quickly. 【答案】32．C 33．B 34．A 35．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，解释了情绪如何影响大脑的记忆选择，介绍了杏仁核的作用，并给出利用情绪提高记忆的建议。 【详解】32．第一段指出“We are much more likely to remember events that made us feel strong emotions”，因此大脑最容易记住引起强烈感受的事件。 33．第二段说明“the amygdala ‘tags’ the memory. It tells the brain, ‘This is important! Remember this!’”，杏仁核的功能是标记重要的情绪记忆。 34．第三段提到“This ‘emotional memory’ was very useful for our ancestors”，并举例说明帮助生存，因此提及祖先是为了解释情绪记忆的生存价值。 35．最后一段指出“we should try to connect it to an emotion”，作者建议将学习内容与情绪连接以增强记忆。 四、口语应用。（每小题2分，共10分） 阅读下面对话，从7个选项中选择5个恰当的句子完成此对话，并把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。 A: Hi, Dr. Lee. I have a problem. I study hard for my history tests, but I always forget the dates and events. B: That’s a common problem. 36 A: I usually just read the textbook over and over again. B: That’s not very effective. 37 Try connecting the events to a story or a picture in your mind. A: 38 Does that really work? B: Yes, it does. Our brains remember stories much better than lists of facts. 39 A: That sounds interesting. I’ll try that. B: Also, make sure you get enough sleep. 40 A: I didn’t know that. Thanks for your advice! A．How do you study now? B．That’s why I suggest using stories to remember. C．Sleep helps your brain store memories. D．You should try a different method. E．I prefer to study in the library. F．Can you give me an example? G．I have trouble with maths, too. 【答案】36．A 37．D 38．F 39．B 40．C 【导语】本文是一段关于学习方法的对话，学生向Dr. Lee请教历史学习困难，李博士给出建议，强调联想记忆和睡眠对记忆的重要性。 【详解】36．A回答经常一遍又一遍阅读教科书，可知这是在询问A的学习方法。A项“How do you study now?”引出了A的学习方法。 37．Dr. Lee评价A的方法不是很有效，接着应建议试一下不同的方法，D选项“You should try a different method.”直接承接并引出具体方法。 38．Dr. Lee提出联想方法后，A问真的有用吗，此处A需要先询问示例，故F选项“Can you give me an example?”符合逻辑。 39．Dr. Lee解释大脑记故事远优于记事实列表后，总结自己提出该建议的科学依据，B选项“That’s why I suggest using stories to remember.”符合上下文逻辑。 40．Dr. Lee说确保充足睡眠后，应向A解释这样做的好处，C项“Sleep helps your brain store memories.”符合语境。 五、任务型阅读。（41-42小题，每小题2分；43-44小题，每小题3分；共10分） 阅读下文并回答问题。 Remember to listen to music. It might just improve your memory.   Scientists have found that learning to play an instrument, including the piano and violin, is good for children's memory.   Researchers at a music school have found that kids who insisted on practicing those instruments over a period of 3 years were more likely to have better memory skills than those who seldom did. The study followed about 200 students in primary schools over 3 years, and tested them on memory tasks every six months.   Toward the end of the study, the researchers started asking them questions about their daily memory. For example, “Do you have more trouble than usual remembering a short list of things, such as a shopping list?” A growing number of “yes” answers can mean their memory is declining.   The participants were divided into five groups, based on how long they practiced each day, from two hours in the longest group to just ten minutes. The two-hour practicers were 34 percent less likely to be forgetful. And the results were even better if the children happened to learn rhythm-rich music. Besides, those who listened to classical music often were 47 percent less likely to become forgetful, compared with those who never did.   “Our studies provide further evidence that art activities can be important to keep your brain healthy,” the researchers said. 41．How long did the researchers follow the participants in the study?（不超过5个词）   42．According to the 4th paragraph, what can mean a child's memory is becoming worse?（不超过15个词）   43．According to the 5th paragraph, what kind of music is good for memory?（不超过10个词）   44．What do the researchers think the studies can prove?（不超过15个词）   【答案】41．For 3 years./Over 3 years. 42．A growing number of “yes” answers to such questions. 43．Rhythm-rich music and classical music. 44．Art activities are important to keep the brain healthy. 【导语】本文研究表明弹奏乐器、聆听音乐有助于提升记忆力，证明艺术活动有益于维持大脑健康。 【详解】41．文中指出：“The study followed about 200 students in primary schools over 3 years”，说明研究者追踪参与者时长为三年。 42．文中指出：“A growing number of ‘yes’ answers can mean their memory is declining”，说明越来越多肯定回答代表孩子记忆力变差。 43．文中指出：“the results were even better if the children happened to learn rhythm-rich music” 以及 “those who listened to classical music often were 47 percent less likely to become forgetful”，说明节奏感强的音乐与古典音乐对记忆力有益。 44．文中指出：“art activities can be important to keep your brain healthy”，说明研究证实艺术活动对保持大脑健康很重要。 六、完成句子。（45-52小题，每空1分；53小题2分；共10分） 阅读短文，根据方框中的内容和各小题的提示，完成句子。 1. It really makes perfect.(一般疑问句) 2. 他指出练习只影响人们技能差异的一小部分。(完成译句) 3. Our development also has to do with genes, age and natural talent.(划线部分提问) 4. It can make everyone perfect.(否定句) 5. keep, differences, we, and, should, accept, practicing(连词成句) As a famous saying goes, “Practice makes perfect.” It’s just like the 10000-hour rule: enough practice can make people great. But 1. 45 it really ________ perfect? In fact, Dr. Hambrick disagrees. He 2. 46 ________ that practice only influences a small part of people’s skill differences. 3. 47 ________ our development also have to do with? Genes, age and natural talent. In short, Practice is necessary for learning, but 4. it 48 ________ everyone perfect. 5. 49 ________. 【答案】45．does  make 46．points out 47．What does 48．can’t make 49．We should accept differences and keep practicing. 【导语】本文主要讨论“熟能生巧”与技能发展的真正影响因素。 【详解】45．原句It really makes perfect.是一般现在时，主语It是第三人称单数，谓语动词是makes。变为一般疑问句时，需借助助动词Does置于句首，并将谓语动词还原为原形make。文中对应两处空缺。 46．本题考查汉译英及动词短语。中文指出对应英文短语point out。主语He是第三人称单数，且全文时态为一般现在时（如disagrees），故谓语动词需用第三人称单数形式points。 47．划线部分genes, age and natural talent是事物/因素，故疑问词用What。原句Our development also has to do …变为特殊疑问句时，因主语our development是单数，且实义动词为have（文中已给出原形），需借助助动词does构成疑问语序。 48．原句It can make everyone perfect.中含有情态动词can。变为否定句时，直接在can后加not，缩写为can’t，后接动词原形make。文中空缺处需填入否定形式的情态动词及谓语动词。 49．所给词汇中，We作主语，should是情态动词后接动词原形，accept和keep是并列的谓语动词，differences是accept的宾语，practicing是keep的宾语（keep doing sth.）。根据短文逻辑练习是必要的但不能让所有人完美，结论应为我们要接受差异并坚持练习。注意句首字母大写及句末标点。 七、概要补全。（54和55小题，每小题2分；56和57小题，每小题3分；共10分） 阅读文章，用恰当的短语或句子补全概要。补全部分总词数不超过30词，不能照抄原文连续超过3个词。 Why Do We Forget and How Can We Improve Memory? Everyone has experienced forgetfulness—forgetting where you put your keys, the name of a new friend, or a task you were supposed to do. But don’t worry. It‘s completely normal. The human brain is complex, and forgetting is a natural part of how it works. There are two main types of memory: short-term memory and long-term memory. Short-term memory is like a temporary storage space. It holds small amounts of information for a short time, such as a phone number you just looked up. Long-term memory, on the other hand, is for things you need to remember for a longer period, like your birthday or a skill you’ve learned. The good news is that we can improve our memory by using a few clever strategies. First, “use it or lose it.” The more you review and repeat information, the stronger your memory becomes. For example, explaining what you‘ve learned to someone else is a great way to practice. Second, connect new information to something you already know. This is called “linking.” For instance, if you’re learning about a new country, think about what you already know about its culture. Third, use your senses. Creating a picture in your mind, making a mind map, or even singing a song with facts can make them more memorable. Finally, leading a healthy lifestyle also helps your memory. Getting enough sleep is crucial because your brain organizes memories while you rest. Eating a balanced diet and exercising regularly also keep your brain in good condition. So, if you find yourself forgetting things from time to time, try these methods. With practice, you can certainly improve your memory and keep your brain sharp. 概要部分： Everyone experiences forgetting, which is 50 . There are two types of memory: short-term and long-term. The key to improving memory lies in using effective strategies. We can 51 by reviewing regularly and practicing, 52 , and using our senses. Moreover, 53 like getting enough sleep and a balanced diet also play an important role in keeping our memory sharp. 【答案】50．completely normal 51．improve our memory 52．linking new information 53．healthy lifestyles 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了记忆的类型、遗忘的原因以及提高记忆力的有效策略和健康生活方式的重要性。 【详解】50．根据文章第1段“It’s completely normal.（这完全正常。）”可知，忘记事情是完全正常的现象。所以填completely normal。 51．根据文章第3段“The good news is that we can improve our memory（好消息是我们可以提高我们的记忆力）”及上下文语境可推知此处指我们可以通过策略来提高记忆力。所以填improve our memory。 52．根据文章第3段“connect new information to something you already know. This is called“linking”（将新信息与你已知的东西联系起来。这叫做“链接”。）”可推知第二种策略是链接新信息，需与前后动名词形式保持一致。所以填linking new information。 53．根据文章第4段“leading a healthy lifestyle also helps your memory（健康的生活方式也有助于你的记忆力）”可推知健康的生活方式对保持记忆力敏锐起重要作用。所以填healthy lifestyles。 八、书面表达。（满分20分） 54．假如你是李华，你曾因健忘而在学习或生活中遇到过麻烦。请你根据以下提示，用英语写一篇日记，记录你的经历和解决方法。 提示要点： 1. 你遇到了什么记忆问题（例如：忘记带作业、忘记妈妈交代的事情等）； 2. 这个问题给你带来了什么困扰； 3. 你用了什么方法来解决这个问题（至少两种方法）； 4. 你的感受或收获。 要求： 1. 必须包含所给要点，可适当发挥； 2. 语句通顺，意思连贯，语法正确，书写规范； 3. 文中不得出现真实人名、校名或地名； 4. 词数80左右。 _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文: Wednesday, 15 November      Sunny I had a bad day today. I left my homework at home again! My teacher was unhappy, and I felt embarrassed. I often forget things because I am too busy. I decided to solve this problem.
