2 , use mind maps. When you take notes in class, don’t just write down facts in your 3 . Draw a mind map with the main topic in the centre. Add branches for key ideas and use key words instead of long sentences. This helps you see how ideas are connected, and it’s 4 to review later.

Have you ever heard of the “memory athlete”? These are people who can memorize thousands of numbers or the order of several decks of cards in minutes. You might think they have a 1 brain.

But why do we forget things? Sometimes it is because we are not 7 . If you put your phone on the table but keep thinking about your dinner, your brain won’t store the phone’s position well. To 8 your daily memory, you should focus on one thing at a time.
Besides, a healthy lifestyle helps a lot. Eating fish, sleeping well, and doing exercise can 9 your brain power. So, if you want to improve your memory, start by changing your habits today. Don’t just accept a “bad memory” as an excuse. 10 your brain, and it will surprise you!

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者通过英语课上因天气变化引发的纠错经历,说明了查字典的重要性及养成好习惯的益处。
1.句意:但是许多学生认为在英语考试中获得令人满意的分数是困难的。
根据前文“English is important”及转折词“But”可知,虽然重要但得高分“很难”,hard符合语境。important“重要的”、enjoyable“令人愉快的”、useful“有用的”,均不符合语境。
2.句意:这里有一个关于我的故事,它可能会给你学习英语的提示。
全文讨论英语学习,此处指“学习”英语,应选用learning。speaking“说”、writing“写”、spelling“拼写”,均不能概括全文主题。
3.句意:一天,我们正在上英语课,天气突然变了。
根据下文“The sky became dark and the rain began...”可知是“天气”变了,应选用weather。screen“屏幕”、temperature“温度”、chemistry“化学”,均不符合“天空变暗、开始下雨”的语境。
4.句意:天空变暗了,开始下起倾盆大雨。
形容雨下得大常用pour,pour表示“倾盆而下”,符合“大雨”的语境。blow“吹”、hurry“匆忙”、appear“出现”,均不符合语境。
5.句意:很快外面就很难看清了。
根据上文“sky became dark and the rain began to pour”可知外面“看不清”,应选用clearly,构成“see clearly”(看清)。seriously“严重地”、probably“可能”、finally“最后”,均不符合语境。
6.句意:我忍不住说:“雨下得很大。”
此处后接说话的具体内容“It’s raining hardly.”,应选用saying。speaking“说”后接语言,telling“告诉、讲”,talking“谈论”,均不符合语境。
7.句意:但是外面的雨声太大了,我没有听清楚她的话。
上文老师纠正了作者的错误,下文说作者没听清,前后为转折关系,应用But表示“但是”。So“所以”表结果,And表并列,If“如果”表条件,均不符合转折逻辑。
8.句意:所以老师重复了一遍:“雨下得很大。”
根据上文“I didn’t hear her clearly”可知老师“重复”了一遍,应选用repeated。expected“期待”、discovered“发现”、reported“报告”,均不符合“重复说话”的语境。
9.句意:我意识到我犯了一个错误。
根据“It’s raining hardly.”可知此处指自己犯了错,make a mistake是固定搭配,意为“犯错误”,应选用made。compared“比较”、reviewed“复习”、found“发现”,均不符合“犯错”的含义。
10.句意:课后,老师亲切地告诉我正确的句子,并建议我查字典了解“hard”和“hardly”的区别。
根据上文老师纠正了作者的错误,并告诉了“正确的”用法,应选用right。impossible“不可能的”、possible“可能的”、wrong“错误的”,均不符合语境。
11.句意:课后,老师亲切地告诉我正确的句子,并建议我查字典了解“hard”和“hardly”的区别。
look up in the dictionary表示“在字典里查阅”,符合“查单词”的语境。look for“寻找”、look at“看”、look like“看起来像”,均不符合“查字典”的含义。
12.句意:课后,老师亲切地告诉我正确的句子,并建议我查字典了解“hard”和“hardly”的区别。
此处指了解两个词之间的“区别”,应选用differences。spellings“拼写”、similarities“相似之处”、mistakes“错误”,均不符合语境。
13.句意:多亏了我的英语老师,我养成了查字典的习惯。
have a habit of doing sth.表示“有做某事的习惯”,符合“养成了查字典的习惯”的语境。secret“秘密”、spirit“精神”、difference“差异”,均不符合“习惯”的含义。
14.句意:通过查字典,我能更好地理解我不懂的单词和句子。
by doing sth.表示“通过做某事”,符合“通过查字典”的语境。with表示“用工具”,on“在……上”、about“关于”,均不符合“通过某种方式”的含义。
15.句意:并且我能够以这种方式学到一些新的东西。
查字典不仅能理解原意,还能学到新知识,learn something new表示“学到新东西”,符合“通过查字典学到新知识”的语境。difficult“困难的”、necessary“必要的”、easy“容易的”,均不符合“学到新内容”的含义。

How can you improve your spoken English? The first and the most important thing is to believe in 1 . You should always be full of confidence (自信), 2 you will never be able to improve your English. You should often say to yourself, “Come on, don’t be afraid!” You should never lose heart and never 3 .
Maybe you are afraid of losing face, but you should think since we are students and we’re 4 English, there’s no need to worry about anything. You must always be 5 in practice. There’s no doubt that you can’t speak as 6 as the native (本地的) people because we are Chinese, and we don’t have 7 to live in foreign countries and talk with the people there all the time. But we must know that the main 8 to study English is to make ourselves understood and understand other people. You should believe that native speakers will not laugh at you. Instead, they will 9 you.
So if you are brave enough, you’ll certainly make rapid progress in your spoken English. Don’t be 10 or afraid! Just have a try.

【导语】本文主要讲述如何提高英语口语。建议我们要自信,不怕犯错,积极练习,以交流为目的,不要害羞害怕,勇敢尝试。
1.句意:首要也是最重要的事情就是相信你自己。
根据下文“You should always be full of confidence”可知文章以第二人称向读者提出建议;yourself“你自己”,符合语境;itself“它自己”,themselves“他们自己”,myself“我自己”,均和第二人称叙述视角不匹配。
2.句意:你应当始终充满自信,否则你永远无法提高你的英语。
根据前后分句逻辑,前半句说要自信,后半句是不自信带来的后果;or“否则”,符合警示后果的逻辑。
3.句意:你永远不要灰心,也永远不要放弃。
根据前文“You should never lose heart”可知此处和“不要灰心”并列;give up“放弃”,和不要丧失信心的语境相匹配。
4.句意:也许你害怕丢面子,但是你要想到,既然我们是学生,正在学习英语,就没必要担心任何事情。
根据句中“we are students”以及全文主题提升英语口语;learning“学习”,符合语境。
5.句意:在练习中你必须总是积极主动。
根据全篇鼓励大胆开口练习口语的内容;active“积极的”,符合语境;busy“忙碌的”,silent“沉默的”,creative“有创造力的”,均和练习口语要主动的语境不匹配。
6.句意:毫无疑问你不能说得和本地人一样好,因为我们是中国人。
此处修饰动词speak,需要副词;well“好地”,符合语境;good“好的 (形容词)”,badly“糟糕地”,loud“大声的”,均不符合语法或句意。
7.句意:我们没有机会住在国外,一直和那里的人交谈。
根据“we are Chinese”,可知中国人不具备长期居住国外的条件;chances“机会”,符合语境;advice“建议”,direction“方向”,conversations“对话”,均不符合句意。
8.句意:但是我们必须知道,学习英语的主要方式是让别人听懂我们,同时理解别人。
根据后面“to make ourselves understood and understand other people”,这是学英语的途径;way“方式”,符合语境;rule“规则”,treat“对待”,influence“影响”,均不符合句意。
9.句意:相反,他们会鼓励你。
根据上一句“native speakers will not laugh at you”,不会嘲笑,与之相反就是给予鼓励;encourage 鼓励”,和前文逻辑一致。
10.句意:不要害羞或者害怕!
根据后文“or afraid! Just have a try”,和afraid并列,指练习口语不要胆怯;shy“害羞的”,符合语境。
阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Many students feel worried because they often forget what they have learnt. Here are some simple and 1 ways to help improve your memory.
2 , use mind maps. When you take notes in class, don’t just write down facts in your 3 . Draw a mind map with the main topic in the centre. Add branches for key ideas and use key words instead of long sentences. This helps you see how ideas are connected, and it’s 4 to review later.
Secondly, 5 what you learn. After class, try to explain the lesson to a friend or even to yourself. When you express the information in your own words, your 6 works harder to remember it. It’s also a good way to check your real understanding.
Thirdly, make use of your senses. If you only read information, you may 7 it quickly. But if you read aloud, write it down and draw pictures, you use more parts of your brain. This makes your memory much stronger.
Last but not least, keep a healthy lifestyle. Enough sleep can make your brain work better. 8 you stay up late, you will feel tired in class and can’t focus. Also, proper exercise and healthy food are important for your brain and memory.
In a word, good learning habits really make a 9 . If you follow these useful ways and keep practising, you will 10 improve your memory and study better soon.

【导语】本文介绍了改善记忆力的四种方法,包括思维导图、复述知识、多感官运用及健康生活方式,旨在引导学生养成好习惯,提升学习效率。
1.句意:这里有一些简单且有效的方法来帮助提高你的记忆力。
根据“help improve your memory”,可知方法应该是有效的,有效的方法才能帮助提高记忆力,effective“有效的”符合语境。boring“无聊的”;useless“无用的”;strange“奇怪的”其他选项含贬义或不合逻辑。
2.句意:首先,使用思维导图。
根据后文“Secondly”,可知此处表示列举的第一点,需与Secondly呼应,To start with“首先”符合语境。After all“毕竟”;In the end“最后”;As a result“结果”无法体现顺序。
3.句意:当你在课堂记笔记时,不要只是把事实写在你的笔记本上。
根据“take notes in class”,可知是在笔记本上记笔记,notebook“笔记本”符合语境。account“账户”;magazine“杂志”;dictionary“字典”不符合上课场景。
4.句意:这有助于你看清各个观点之间是如何关联的,以后复习更容易。
根据思维导图帮助理清思路,可知复习会更轻松,且思维导图旨在简化信息,easier“更容易”符合语境。slower“更慢”;weaker“更弱”;quieter“更安静”与目的相反。
5.句意:第二,复述你所学的内容。
根据“explain the lesson to a friend”,可知是复述,向他人解释即复述过程,retell“复述”符合语境。lose“丢失”;miss“错过”;waste“浪费”无法体现这一学习行为。
6.句意:当你用自己的话来表述这些信息时,你的大脑更努力地工作来记住它。
根据“remember it”,可知是大脑在工作,记忆是大脑的功能,brain“大脑”符合语境。nose“鼻子”;voice“声音”;mouth“嘴巴”。不具备此功能。
7.句意:如果你只读信息,你可能很快忘记它。
根据前后文对比,只用一种感官效果不好,容易忘记,单一感官输入记忆效果差,forget“忘记”符合语境。break“打破”;create“创造”;change“改变”不符合逻辑。
8.句意:如果你熬夜,你会在课堂上感到疲倦,并且无法集中。
根据前后句逻辑关系,表示假设条件,熬夜是疲倦的条件,If符合语境。Until/Unless/Before逻辑不通。
9.句意:总之,好的学习习惯真的起作用。
根据固定搭配“make a difference”,可知选difference。friend“朋友”;mistake“错误”;promise“承诺”搭配不当。
10.句意:如果你遵循这些实用的方法并且坚持练习,你很快就一定会提升记忆力,学得更好。
根据“If you follow...”,可知结果是肯定的,遵循建议会有确定好的结果,surely“肯定地”符合语境。sadly“伤心地”;wisely“明智地”;nervously“紧张地”情感色彩不符。
Toby wondered what was wrong with Grandpa. He was always 1 things those days. Toby was told that Grandpa might have early memory loss, and his family planned to send him to a care center because he needed special 2 .
Toby didn’t like the idea. But he could only visit Grandpa now and then. The first time Toby went there, he felt a deep 3 —Grandpa sat quietly by the window, staring at an empty chair.
“Look, I brought you something,” Toby said, taking out a small wooden box. Grandpa opened it slowly. Inside were old things: a fishing hook, a railway 4 , a dried leaf. “Do you remember these?” Toby asked hopefully.
But Grandpa only smiled faintly. He didn’t seem to 5 Toby at all.
The 6 thing happened on the next visits. Grandpa looked at the box, touched the leaf, but said little. “Who are you, boy?” he once asked.
Toby held back tears. “I’m your 7 , Toby.” Grandpa nodded slowly, “The boy who brings the box.”
One afternoon, something changed. Grandpa picked up the railway ticket and suddenly his eyes lit up. “We took this train to the sea,” he whispered. “Your grandma packed sandwiches.” Tears 8 down his cheeks.
Toby 9 that memory might fade, but love and warmth stayed somewhere deep. From then on, he brought the box every weekend.
Sometimes Grandpa forgot names. But he never forgot 10 he loved.

【导语】本文讲述了Toby探望患有记忆丧失的祖父的故事。通过旧物唤醒记忆,Toby意识到记忆会消退,但爱永远留存。
1.句意:这些天他总是在遗失东西。
后句明确提到“Grandpa might have early memory loss”,记忆力减退的最直接生活表现就是经常弄丢物品,losing“遗失/丢失”符合语境;borrowing“借入”、hiding“隐藏”、collecting“收集”均不能体现记忆衰退带来的生活困扰。
2.句意:他的家人计划把他送到照料中心,因为他需要特殊的照顾。
前文提到去往的机构是“a care center”,前后词汇直接呼应,去照料中心是因为需要专业的“照料/关照”,care符合语境;training“训练”、freedom“自由”、medicine“药物”均无法与前面的care center构成最自然的逻辑对应。
3.句意:托比第一次去那里时,他感到一种深深的悲伤——爷爷静静地坐在窗边,盯着一张空椅子。
破折号后描绘了爷爷孤寂落寞的画面(“sat quietly... staring at an empty chair”),看到曾经熟悉的至亲变得如此孤独呆滞,托比内心产生的情感必然是难过与心酸,sadness“悲伤”符合语境;joy“喜悦”、anger“愤怒”、surprise“惊讶”均不符合面对生病落寞长辈时的悲凉心境。
4.句意:里面是一些老物件:一个鱼钩,一张火车票,一片干树叶。
后文明确提到“Grandpa picked up the railway ticket”,前后文出现完全一致的名词原词复现,ticket“票”符合语境;card“卡片”、map“地图”、coin“硬币”均与后文的明确交代不符。
5.句意:但他似乎根本认不出托比。
原文紧接着在后文描写爷爷问他“Who are you, boy?”,这直接印证了爷爷此刻完全辨认不出眼前的孙子,recognize“认出/识别”符合语境;trust“信任”、follow“跟随”、hear“听见”均不能解释为什么会当面询问他是谁。
6.句意:接下来的几次探望也都发生了同样的事情。
后文描述了爷爷依然只是看着盒子、摸着树叶却少言寡语(“looked at the box, touched the leaf, but said little”),并且依然认不出托比,说明前文描述的令人心酸的状况在重复上演。固定搭配the same thing表示“同样的事情”,same符合语境;strange“奇怪的”、funny“滑稽的”、wonderful“精彩的”均与重复发生的常态不符。
7.句意:“我是您的孙子,托比。”
整篇文章的主线人物关系就是托比与他的“Grandpa(爷爷)”,对应长辈称呼,托比就是爷爷的孙子,grandson“孙子/外孙”符合亲属关系逻辑;nephew“侄子/外甥”、cousin“堂表兄弟”、son“儿子”均不符合人物关系。
8.句意:眼泪沿着他的脸颊滚落。
原文主语是“Tears”,介词短语为“down his cheeks(沿着脸颊)”,描绘热泪盈眶并顺着脸庞滑下的状态,固定表达常用roll down,rolled符合动词搭配与动人画面;jumped“跳跃”、burnt“燃烧”、floated“漂浮”均不能用来描写眼泪流下。
9.句意:托比意识到记忆或许会褪色,但爱与温暖长留在内心深处。
看到爷爷因旧车票触动而回忆起奶奶和旧时光后,托比内心豁然开朗,领悟到了人生的这一真谛,realized“意识到/领悟”符合心理认知深化的过程;doubted“怀疑”、regretted“后悔”、argued“争论”均无法引出后文富有哲理与释怀感的领悟。
10.句意:但他从未忘记他有多么爱(他们)。
动词love通常与much连用表示爱意之深,此处how much引导宾语从句修饰动词loved,表达“爱得有多深/多么深沉的爱”,符合全文情感升华;how often询问频率,how soon询问多久之后,how far询问距离,均不能修饰爱的深度。
Mr. Lee, a 70-year-old retired teacher, started losing his memory. His wife tried to help him 1 things. She stuck colorful notes everywhere: “Take medicine”, “Lock the door”, “Call son at 7”.
One day, Mr. Lee got 2 and walked out, forgetting the way home. Police found him two hours later, holding a note that said “Home address”. He smiled and said he only remembered he had a note in his pocket.

1.句意:他的妻子尽力帮他记住事情。
妻子在各处贴彩色便签,目的是帮助他记住事情,remember“记住”符合语境。forget“忘记”,hide“隐藏”,均不符合。
2.句意:一天李先生穿好衣服出门,忘记了回家的路。
后文说他出门走失,got dressed“穿好衣服”是出门前的动作,dressed“穿好衣服”符合语境。lost“丢失”,hurt“受伤”,均不符合。
3.句意:于是夫妻俩开始每天一个习惯:睡前回忆当天的三件事。
每天睡前做一件事,这是一个日常习惯,habit“习惯”符合语境。meal“一餐饭”,trip“旅行”,均不符合。
4.句意:一开始很难,但是渐渐地它起作用了。
前文提到记忆训练可以减缓记忆力衰退,慢慢这个方法见效了,worked“起作用”符合语境。disappeared“消失”,failed“失败”,均不符合。
5.句意:孙辈们加入进来讲故事,带来欢笑和情感,而情感对记忆有很强的支撑作用。
讲故事会带来欢乐的氛围,laughter“笑声”符合语境。anger“愤怒”,fear“恐惧”,均不符合。
6.句意:李太太说:爱和关怀是最好的良药。
文章讲家人之间的关爱陪伴,care“关怀”符合语境。money“金钱”,silence“安静”,均不符合。
7.句意:即使事实渐渐消退,家人的感觉一直都在。
就算记不住事情,家人带来的感受不会消失,feeling“感受”符合语境。price“价格”,size“尺寸”,均不符合。
8.句意:虽然有些单词写错了,他继续坚持尝试。
句中though表转折,尽管写日记时有单词写错,但他仍然坚持尝试,keep doing表示“持续做某事”,keeps“保持,继续”符合语境。stops“停止”,avoids“避免”,均不符合。
9.句意:我们从他们身上学到:记忆不只是事实,还有我们共享的时刻。
家人相伴的那些瞬间属于moments,moments“时刻”符合语境。problems“问题”,grades“成绩”,均不符合。
10.句意:日常小小的努力,让大脑保持活跃。
坚持训练、写日记,让头脑保持活跃,active“活跃的”符合语境。empty“空的”,sleepy“困倦的”,均不符合。

Have you ever heard of the “memory athlete”? These are people who can memorize thousands of numbers or the order of several decks of cards in minutes. You might think they have a 1 brain. However, most of them were just normal people before they started training. They prove that memory is not just a gift, but a 2 that can be built.
The secret behind their success is often “The Method of Loci” (位置记忆法). It means connecting what you need to remember with 3 places. For example, if you want to memorize a shopping list, you can imagine putting the milk on your bed, the apples on your desk, and the bread on your chair. When you want to recall the list, you just 4 around your room in your mind.
Scientists say this method works because our brains are very good at remembering 5 and journeys. In fact, ancient Greeks used this trick over 2,000 years ago! It is much more 6 than just repeating words again and again.
But why do we forget things? Sometimes it is because we are not 7 . If you put your phone on the table but keep thinking about your dinner, your brain won’t store the phone’s position well. To 8 your daily memory, you should focus on one thing at a time.
Besides, a healthy lifestyle helps a lot. Eating fish, sleeping well, and doing exercise can 9 your brain power. So, if you want to improve your memory, start by changing your habits today. Don’t just accept a “bad memory” as an excuse. 10 your brain, and it will surprise you!

【导语】本文介绍了记忆运动员的秘诀,解释了位置记忆法的原理,并给出了改善记忆力的建议,如专注和健康生活方式。
1.句意:你可能认为他们有一个特殊的大脑。
根据后文“However, most of them were just normal people before they started training.” (然而,他们中的大多数人在开始训练前只是普通人),前后是转折关系,可知前面是认为他们有“特殊的”大脑,故选special。small“小的”,heavy“重的”,common“普通的”,均不符合。
2.句意:他们证明记忆不仅是一种天赋,更是一种可以培养的技能。
根据前文“memory is not just a gift” (记忆不仅是一种天赋),以及后文“that can be built” (可以培养的),可知记忆是一种“技能”,故选skill。game“游戏”,toy“玩具”,dream“梦想”,均不符合。
3.句意:它意味着把你需要记住的东西与熟悉的地点联系起来。
根据后文“For example, if you want to memorize a shopping list, you can imagine putting the milk on your bed, the apples on your desk, and the bread on your chair.” (例如,如果你想记住购物清单,你可以想象把牛奶放在床上,苹果放在桌上,面包放在椅子上),可知是把要记的东西与“熟悉的”地点联系起来,故选familiar。secret“秘密的”,strange“奇怪的”,public“公共的”,均不符合。
4.句意:当你想回忆清单时,你只需在脑海中在你的房间里走一圈。
