1、Meet Your Memory1. Memory is something that cannot be seen, touched ｏｒweighed. It is thought to be abstract. It is a ｓｅｔof skills rather than an object. Neither is there a single standard fｏｒjudging a good ｏｒpoｏｒmemory. There are a number of different ways in which a person may have a good memory.2. Memory is generally viewed as consisting of three stages: (1) acquisition refers to learning the material; (2) storage refers to keeping the material in the brain until it is needed; (3) retrieval (提取) refers to getting the material back out when it is needed:3. Memory consists of at least two different processes: short - term memory ａｎｄ　long - term memory. Short - term memory has a limited capacity ａｎｄ　a rapid forgetting rate. Its capacity can be increased by chunking (组成大块), ｏｒgrouping separate bits of information into larger chunks. Long - term memory has an almost unlimited capacity.4. One measure of memory is recall, which requires you to produce information by searching the memory fｏｒit. In aided recall, you are given cues (提示) to help you produce the information. In free - recall learning you recall the material in any order. In serial learning you recall it in the ｏｒｃｅｒit was presented ａｎｄ　in paired - associate learning you learn pairs of words so that when the first word is given you can recall the second word. A second measure of memory is recognition, in which you do not have to produce the information from memory, but must be able to identify it when it is presented to you. In a third measure of memory, relearning, the difference between how long it took to learn the material the first time ａｎｄ　how long it takes to learn it again indicates how much you remember. Relearning is generally a more sensitive measure of memory than is recognition because relearning shows retention (保持) while recognition does not. Recognition is generally a more sensitive measure than recall.Paragraph 4 ______【单选题】

3、Genetically Modified FoodEuropean ｕｎｉｏｎenvironmental officials have determined that two kinds of genetically modified corn could harm butterflies, affect food chains ａｎｄ　disturb life in rivers ａｎｄ　streams, ａｎｄ　they have proposed a ban on the sale of the seeds, which are made by Dupont Pioneer, Dow Agrosciences ａｎｄ　Syngenta. The preliminary decisions are circulating within the European Commission, which has the final say. Some officials there are skeptical of a ban that would upｓｅｔthe powerful biotechnology industry ａｎｄ　could exacerbate tensions with important trading partners like the United States. The seeds are not available on the European market fｏｒcultivation.In the decisions, the environment commissioner, Stavros Dimas, contends that the genetically modified corn, ｏｒmaize could affect certain butterfly species, specifically the monarch, ａｎｄ　other beneficial insects. Fｏｒinstance, research this year indicates that larvae of the monarch butterfly exposed to the genetically modified corn "behave differently than other larvae." In the decision concerning the corn seeds produced by Dow ａｎｄ　Pioneer, Mr. Dimas calls "potential damage on the environment irreversible." In the decision on Syngenta\'s corn, he says that "the level of risk generated by the cultivation of this product fｏｒthe environment is unacceptable."A decision by the European ｕｎｉｏｎto bar cultivation of the genetically modified crops would be the first of its kind in the trade bloc, ａｎｄ　would intensify the continuing battle over genetically modified corn. Banning the applications fｏｒcorn crops also would mark a bold new step fｏｒEuropean environmental authorities, who are already aggressively pursuing regulations on emissions from cars ａｎｄ　aircraft, setting it at odds with the United States ａｎｄ　angering industries."These products have been grown in the U. S. ａｎｄ　other countries fｏｒyears," said Stephen Norton, a spokesman fｏｒthe United States trade representative. "We are not aware of any other case when a product has been rejected after having been reviewed ａｎｄ　determined safe by European food safety authorities," he said.Barbara Helfferich, a spokeswoman fｏｒMr. Dimas, declined to comment on the specifics of the procedure because commissioners had not yet made a final decision. But she said that the European ｕｎｉｏｎwas within its rights to make decisions based on the "precautionary principle" even when scientists had found no definitive evidence proving products can cause harm. She said that the decisions by Mr. Dimas could go before the commission within a few weeks, but she said that no date had been set. In the decisions, Mr. Dimas cited recent research showing that consumption of genetically modified corn byproducts reduced growth ａｎｄ　increased mortality of non-target stream insects ａｎｄ　that these insects are important prey fｏｒaquatic ａｎｄ　riparian predators ａｎｄ　that this could have unexpected ecosystem-scale consequences."Although still preliminary, his decisions could drastically tilt the policy against future approvals of genetically modified crops," said Nathalie Moll, a spokeswoman fｏｒEuropabio, an industryｇｒｏｕｐwith 80 members including Syngenta, Pioneer ａｎｄ　Dow. Europabio says that the crops grown using the genetically modified corn are already imported into several European countries, including France ａｎｄ　Germany, where they are used to feed animals like cows ａｎｄ　chickens.Rob Gianfranceschi, spokesman at the United States mission to the European ｕｎｉｏｎin Brussels, said it was too early to comment on a decision that had not yet been formalized. But he made clear that the United States remained frustrated with European policies on genetically modified crops.To the decisions, the European Commission officials\' attitudes are ______.【单选题】

A.skeptical

B.controversial

C.contradictory

D.divergent

正确答案:D

答案解析:态度题。题干考查的是欧洲委员会官员对于这些决议的态度。文中表示一些官员对禁令表示怀疑，主要害怕禁令会影响外交关系；而一些官员表示支持，可见这些官员所持的态度是有分歧的。考生可能会受到选项B的干扰，比较看来，选项D更为精确。

4、Will We Take Vacation in Spaces?When Mike Kelly first ｓｅｔout to build his own private space-ferry service, he figured his bread-and-butter business would be lofting (发射) satellites into high-Earth orbit. Now he thinks he may have figured wrong. "People were always asking me when they could go," says Kelly, who runs Kelly Space & Technology out of San Bemardino, California. "I realized that real market is in space tourism."According to preliminary market surveys, there are 10,000 would-be-space-tourists willing to spend $1 million each to visit the final frontier. Space Adventure in Arlington, Virginia, has taken more than 130 deposits fｏｒa two-hour, $98, 000 space tour tentatively ａｎｄ　somewhat dubiously (可疑地) ｓｅｔto actｏｒby 2005. Gene Meyers of the space Islａｎｄ　Group says: "Space is the next exotic(风光奇特的) vacation spot. "This may all sound great, but there are a few hurdles (困难). Putting a simple satellite into orbit with no oxygen, life support ｏｒreturn trip necessary already costs an astronomical (天文数字) $ 22,OOO/kg. ａｎｄ　that doesn\'t include the oust of insuring rich ａｎｄ　possibly litigious passenger. John Pike of the Federation of American Scientists acerbically (尖刻地) suggests that the entireｇｒｏｕｐof entrepreneurs trying to corner (垄断) the space-tourism market have between them "just enough money to blow up one rocket."The U. S. space agency has plenty of money but zero interest in mailing space less expensive fｏｒthe little guys. So the little guys are racing to do what the government has failed to do: design a reusable launch system that is inexpensive, safe ａｎｄ　reliable. Kelly Space\'s prototype looks like a plane that has sprouted rocket engines. Rotary Rocket in Redwood City, California, has a booster with rotors to make a helicopter-style return to Earth; Kistler Aero-space in Kirkland, Washington, is piecing together its versions from old Soviet engines, shuttle-style thermal protection tiles ａｎｄ　an elaborate parachute system. The first passenger countdowns are still years away, but bureaucrats at the Federal Aviation Administration in Washington are already informally discussing flight regulations. After all, you can\'t be too prepared, fｏｒa trip to that galaxy far, far away. Fｏｒthose who are intent on joining the 100-mile high club, Hilton ａｎｄ　Budget are plotting to build space hotels. Before the Russian spaceship Mir came down, some people were talking about using it as a low-rent space hotel to reduce the cost. If a space hotel is finally built in space, ａｎｄ　if you are thinking of staying in it, you may want to check the Michelin ratings before booking yourself a suite. Space Adventure in Arlington has taken 130 deposits totaling $98,000 fｏｒa two-hour space tour. 【单选题】

A.Right

B.Wrong

C.Notmentioned

正确答案:B

答案解析:第2段第2句的意思是：每人交100万美元的定金，而不是总共98 000美元，从这句话中可以看出历时两个小时的太空旅行计划在2005年，该旅行是试验性的，并且在一定程度上令人质疑。因此题干的说法是错误的。

5、Sharing SilenceDeaf teenagers Orlando Chavez ａｎｄ　German Resendiz have been friends since kindergarten (幼儿园). Together the two boys, who go to Escondido High School in California, have had the difficult job of learning in schools where the majority of the students can speak ａｎｄ　hear.Orlando lost his hearing at the age of one. German was born deaf, ａｎｄ　his parents moved from Mexico to find a school where he could learn sign language. He met Orlando on their first day of kinder garten."We were in a special class with about 25 other deaf kids," German remembered. "Before then, I didn\'t know I was deaf ａｎｄ　I was different.""Being young ａｎｄ　deaf in regular classes was very hard," signs Orlando. "The other kids didn\'t understａｎｄ　us ａｎｄ　we didn\'t understａｎｄ　them. But we\'ve all grown up together, ａｎｄ　today, I\'m popular because I\'m deaf. Kids try to communicate with me."Some things are very difficult fｏｒthe two boys. "We can\'t talk on the phone, so if we need help, we can\'t call an emergency service," German signs. "ａｎｄ　we can\'t ｏｒｃｅｒfood in a drive - thru."Despite of their difficulties, the two boys have found work putting food in bags at a local supermarket.They got their jobs through a "workability" program, designed fｏｒteenagers from local schools with different types of learning disabilities.German has worked in the supermarket since August, ａｎｄ　Orlando started in November."The other people who work here nave been very nice to us," Orlando signs. "They even sign sometimes. At first, we were nervous, but we\'ve learned a lot ａｎｄ　we\'re getting better."The opportunity to earn money has been exciting, both boys said. After high school, they hope to attend the National Technical Institute fｏｒthe Deaf in New York.Both boys are happy to ______.【单选题】

A.design programs tｏｒthe deaf

B.work at the National Technical Institute fｏｒthe Deaf

C.help students with learning disabilities

D.have the opportunity to earn money

正确答案:D

答案解析:本题难度不大，到文章里定好位，考生会很快确定答案依据。找到文章第六段，最后一段开头谈到，两个小伙都说有机会赚钱是让人兴奋。回来看选项，D项是近义解释，是答案。做本题时也可以先看选项，得到信息提示。

6、You\'d better put these documents in a safe place.【单选题】

A.dark

B.secure

C.guarded

D.banned

答案解析:你最好把这些文件放在一个安全的地。本题有一定难度，干扰项有一定的干扰性。safe和secure都可指“安全的”，C项指“谨慎的，防护的”，D项指“禁止的”，最佳答案是B。

7、Walking to Exercise the BrainDo you think sitting ａｎｄ　studying all the time will improve students grades? Think again. Getting some exercise may help, too.New research with older people suggests that taking regular walks helps them pay attention better than if they didn\'t exercise.Previous research had shown that mice learn, remember ａｎｄ　pay attention better after a few weeks of working out on a running wheel. Mice that exercise have greater blood flow to the brain than those who don\'t. Their brain cells also make more connections.Neuroscientists (神经科学家) from the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign wanted to find out if the same thing is true fｏｒpeople. First, they measured the physical fitness of 41 adults, ages 58 to 77, after each person walked I mile. Then, participants looked at arrows on a computer screen ａｎｄ　had to use computer keys to show which way one particular arrow was pointing.Adults who were physically fit were faster at the arrow task, ａｎｄ　their answers were just as accurate as their less - fit peers, the researchers found. The fitter participants also had more blood flow to a part of their brain responsible fｏｒpaying attention ａｎｄ　making decisions.In a second study, 15 elderly people who completed a 6 - month aerobic - training (有氧运动) course were faster at attention tasks compared with 14 seniors who just did stretching ａｎｄ　toning (韵律操) exercises fｏｒthe same amount of time.So, even going fｏｒa walk every 2 ｏｒ3 days fｏｒjust 10 to 45 minutes can help. That should be good news fｏｒthe elderly.The effects of exercising on the brains of younger people haven\'t been studied yet. Still, it can\'t hurt to take occasional breaks ａｎｄ　go fｏｒa walk ｏｒrun around with friends. Whatever you do, though, don\'t try to read ａｎｄ　walk at the same time. You could end up hurting yourself!It can be good fｏｒhealth when one takes a walk every 2 ｏｒ3 days fｏｒat least ______.【单选题】

A.3 minutes

B.45 minutes

C.30 minutes

D.10 minutes

正确答案:D

答案解析:本题有一定难度，需要认真阅读文章。答案依据在文章第七段。带着题干信息词回到文章定位。第七段第一句谈到，每两三天出去散步10到45分钟会对健康有益，回来看选项，很明显，D是近义解释，是答案。

8、A Bad IdeaThink you can walk, drive, take phone calls, e - mail ａｎｄ　listen to music at the same time 7 Well, New York\'s new law says you can\'t. ａｎｄ　you\'ll be fined $ 100 if you do so on a New York city street. The law went into force last month, following research ａｎｄ　a shocking number of accidents that involved people using electronic gadgets (小巧机械) when crossing the street.Who\'s to blame? Scientists say that our multitasking (多任务处理) abilities are limited. "We are under the impression that our brain can do more than it often can," says Rene Marois, a neuroscientist (神经科学家) in Tennessee. "But a core limitation is the inability to concentrate on two things at once."The young people are often considered the great multitaskers. However, an Oxford University research suggests this perception is open to question. Aｇｒｏｕｐof 18 to 21 years old ａｎｄ　aｇｒｏｕｐof 35 to 39 years old were given 90 seconds to translate images into numbers, using a simple code. _____. But when both groups were interrupted by a phone call ｏｒan instant message, the olderｇｒｏｕｐmatched the youngerｇｒｏｕｐin speed ａｎｄ　accuracy.It is difficult to measure the productivity lost by multitaskers. Jonathan Spira, chief analyst at Basex, a business - research firm, estimates that the cost of interruptions to the American economy is nearly $ 650 billion a year. The estimate is based on surveys with office workers. The surveys conclude that 28 percent of the workers\' time was spent on interruptions ａｎｄ　recovery time before they returned to their main tasks.【单选题】

A.Talking on a cell phone while driving brings you joy anyway.

B.The estimate is based on surveys with office workers.

C.The youngerｇｒｏｕｐdid 10 percent better when not interrupted.

D.However, an Oxford University research suggests this perception is open to question.

E.Scientists say that our multitasking (多任务处理) abilities are limited.

F.ａｎｄ　you\'ll be fined $ 100 if you do so on a New York city street.

正确答案:C

答案解析:本题有一定的难度，需要认真阅读文章，理解好句意。可用排除法和代入法。上文谈到了在没有干扰的情况下，年轻人和年纪大的没有多少差别，下文又转入转折内容，所以可以推断此处应该表达年轻组会做的更好，回来看选项，把C代入文中，符合逻辑，答案是C。

9、While we don\'t agree, we continue to be friends.【单选题】

A.Whoever

B.Where

C.Although

D.Whatever

正确答案:C

答案解析:题干大意：虽然我们意见不同，但是我们仍然是朋友。画线词while引起的是一个让步从句，所起的作用是跟although一样的。whoever：无论任何人。where：哪里。如：Where are you from? 你从哪里来？whatever：无论什么。

10、One Good Reason to Let Smallpox LiveIt\'s now a fair bet that we will never see the total extinction (灭绝) of the smallpox (天花) virus. When smallpox was completely got rid of in the world, scientists wanted to destroy the killer virus in the last two labs, one in the US ａｎｄ　one in Russia. They asked: If smallpox has truly gone from the planet, what point was there in keeping these reserves?In reality, of course, it was naive to imagine that everyone would let go of such a powerful potential weapon. Undoubtedly several nations still have _____ vials (小药瓶). ａｎｄ　the last "official" stocks of live Virus bred mistrust of the US ａｎｄ　Russia, fｏｒno obvious gain.Now American researchers have found an animal model of the human disease, opening the way fｏｒtests on new treatments ａｎｄ　vaccines(疫苗). So once again there\'s a good reason to the virus, just in keep the disease puts in a reappearance.How do we case with the mistrust of the US ａｎｄ　Russia? deal. Keep the virus Simple international support in a well - guarded UN laboratory that\'s open to all countries. The US will object, of course, just as it with a multilateral (多边的) approach to just about everything. But it doesn\'t mean the idea is rejects. If the virus is useful, then let\'s wrong it the servant of all humanity make not just a part of it.【单选题】

A.more

B.few

C.a few

D.a lot

正确答案:C

答案解析:本题有一定难度，本题可用排除法，文章里没有出现比较的含义，所以more可以排除掉，a lot后面不能接名词，不能说a lot vials，所以也可以排除掉，依据上下文逻辑，文章此处是说“毫无疑问，几个国家仍有几瓶（病毒）”，此处要用“几个”的意思，只能用a few，答案是C。
