23、on TV show Super Brain, can remember 2,660 numbers in just one hour!You would think people like this have special brains. But according to a recent study by researchers from the US and the Netherlands, the brain structures of ordinary people and 23 of the worlds leading memory athletes show no diffe

24、rence.Thats because good memories can be trained. New research in the journal Neuron(神经元期刊) suggests that you can become a super memorizer with just six weeks of hard training.Researchers found that technique(技巧) called loci, invented by ancient Greeks, can greatly help improve memory. By using loci

25、, you are using your imagination to improve the brains memory networks. You can link(关联) something you need to remember with a place that you know very well. For example, to remember a list of numbers, imagine yourself walking through your house. Each thing is linked to a number. For example, zero c

26、ould be handle(把手) on the door and five could be the painting on the wall.In one study, some ordinary people were given 20 minutes to remember 72 words. First they could only remember 26 of them. But when they were taught loci, they could remember 62 words.“Not everyone can become a memory champion.

27、 But everyone using the technique can improve a lot from the level theyre at,” said Boris Konrad, one of the researchers in the study.51. According to the study, _.a. memory athletes have special brainsb. ordinary people and memory athletes have similar brain structuresc. hard training can make a pe

28、rson a super memorizerd. the ancient Greeks had the most powerful memory at that timeA. abB. cdC. bcD. ac52. When using loci to remember something, you link the thing with a _.A. numberB. placeC. name D. painting53. Which of the following about the study is NOT true? _.A. People were given 20 minute

29、s to remember the 72 words.B. They could remember 26 words in their own way.C. They could remember all the words by using loci.D. Loci helped them remember 36 more words. (B)Many people tend to complain about not having good friends in their lives. Sadly, they seem to think that their own company is

30、 not enough to make them happy. Nothing could be further from the truth though. In order to get along with others, the first thing you need to do is learn to get along with yourself. Only in this way will you succeed in developing healthy, solid relationships with others. Listen to your inner voice.

31、 Remember that inner voice that keeps whispering to you what you really want and need as well as what you do not really want and need. It is about time you started listening to it. In order to get to know yourself in depth, it is important to learn and accept what you want and what you do not want.

32、Learn to enjoy your own company. You will be surprised to find out how many things you can do by yourself and actually have fun in the process. Reading romantic novels, poetry or science fiction is only a few of the things that you can do by yourself, which not only can offer you hours of enjoyment,

33、 but also the chance to get to know yourself better. Satisfy yourself. Pay special attention to your personal hygiene(卫生). Do your hair and nails often and experiment with new styles. Follow a healthy diet and exercise regularly to stay in good shape. No matter how busy your daily schedule is, alway

34、s find at least an hour per day for yourself, when you can either relax doing absolutely nothing, or doing something that you enjoy most. Learn to respect your ownboundaries. Find out what your boundaries are and learn to respect them. You are the only one who knows what you can accept and what you

35、cannot.54. If you want to have a good relationship with others, you should first _. A. get into the habit of living alone B. learn to be your own best friend C. always tell the truth D. make many friends in society55. What is the purpose of listening to your inner voice? _ A. To keep a good state of

36、 mind. B. To know more about yourself. C. To enjoy the time by yourself. D. To form a relationship with others.56. In order to please yourself, the writer gives some suggestions EXCEPT _. A. eating healthily B. exercise regularly C. experimenting with new hair style D. keeping on cleaning the house5

37、7. What is the structure of the passage? (C)China is known as a state of manners and ceremony. Many proverbs have been passed down from generation to generation such as “polite behavior costs nothing” or “showing respect each other” and so on. For instance, there is an interesting short story. Once

38、upon a time, a man went on a long tour to visit his friend with a swan as a gift. But it escaped from the cage on the way. Though he tried hard, he got hold of nothing but a feather. Instead of returning home, he continued his journey with the swan feather. When his friend received this unexpected g

39、ift, he was deeply moved. And the saying “The gift is nothing much, but its the thought that counts.” was spread far and wide.Chinese used to cup one hand in the other before the chest as a greeting. This tradition has a history of more than 2, 000 years and nowadays it is seldom used except in the

40、Spring Festival. And shaking hands is more popular. Bowing, as to show respect to the higher level, is often used by the lower like subordinates(下级), students, and attendants. But at present Chinese youngsters prefer to simply nod as a greeting. When you start a talk with a stranger, the topics such

41、 as weather, food, or hobbies may be good choices to break the ice. For a man, a chat about sports, stock market or his job can usually go on smoothly. Similar to Western customs, you should be careful to ask a woman private questions. However, relaxing talks about her job or family life will never

42、put you into danger. Though Chinese are said to be implicit(含蓄的), they are actually humorous enough to be pleased about the jokes of Americans.58. Whats the purpose of telling a story about sending a swan feather? A. To make you pleased. B. To tell us that many proverbs have been passed down in Chin

43、a. C. To introduce the next paragraph. D. To give us an example about Chinese interesting story.59. What does the underlined word “counts” mean in the first paragraph? _ . A. Figures out.B. Comes to. C. Means a lot. D. Calculates. 60. In Paragraph 2, the author mainly wants to introduce _. A. the Ch

44、inese body language B. the way the lower show respect to the higher C. the traditional Chinese manners D. the development of Chinese manners61. The passage is mainly about _.A. Chinese proverbs B. Chinese humor C. Chinese manners D. Chinese body languages(D)There is a common belief among parents tha

45、t schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have taught in has ever considered spelling unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, quite different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority(优先) it must be given over general language development and writing ability. The

46、problem is, how to encourage a child to express himself freely in writing without holding him back with spelling.If spelling becomes the only point of his teachers interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to “play safe”. He will write only words within his spelling range(范围). Thats why teache

47、rs often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability.I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience: “This work is terrible! There are far too many spelling mistakes.” It may have been a shar

48、p criticism(批评) of the pupils technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad thing for the teacher who had omitted to read the composition, which contained some beautiful expressions of the childs deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the mistakes, but if his priority

49、had centered on the childs ideas, an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more hope to seek improvement.62. The expression “play safe” probably means _. A. to write carefully B. to do as teachers say C. to use dictionaries frequently D. to avoid using wor

50、ds one is not sure of63. Teachers encourage the use of dictionaries so that _.A. students will be able to express their ideas more freely B. teachers will have less trouble in correcting mistakes C. students will have more trust in writing D. students will learn to spell words correctly64. The write

51、r seems to think that the teachers judgment on that sensitive piece of writing is _. A. reasonable B. unfair C. foolish D. careless65. The major point discussed in the passage is _.A. the importance of developing writing skillsB. the importance of spellingC. the correct way of marking compositionD.

52、the relationship between spelling and the content of a composition第二节：（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。When we are little, we know nothing about the rights and responsibilities of adulthood. 66 Thus, if we like a certain toy or if we want to eat a certain type of chocolate,

53、 we think that our parents will have to buy that for us. We dont care that they possibly have not enough money for that. If they dont carry out our wish, well begin to cry. 67 Whenever we begin to cry, well get what we want.Still, little by little, we realize that our parents cant offer us all that

54、we want for certain reasons. We then also understand that parents have their rights. They have the right to scold us when we do something wrong or when they find out that we have lied to them. 68 They choose our clothes, the food we eat, the school we will study at, the hours when we should go out t

55、o play and the time we have to return home. 69 They are the ones to blame later if we dont receive proper education. Thats why when we beat a classmate at the kindergarten, parents are the ones to apologize for our deeds in front of the teacher and the classmates parents. And when we get ill, they a

56、re responsible for not taking good care of us and for dressing us inadequately.The moment we become teenagers, we notice that we should be responsible for the society. Now we have the right to be independent. 70 It is supposed that we are mature enough to solve our problems and to make people around
