1、Looking to the FutureWhen a magazine fｏｒhigh-school students asked its readers what life would be like in twenty years, they said: Machines would be run by solar power. Buildings would rotate so they could follow the sun to take maximum advantage of its light ａｎｄ　heat. Walls would "radiate light" ａｎｄ　"change colｏｒwith the push of a buttons." Food would be replaced by pills. School would be taught "by electrical impulse while we sleep." Cars would have radar. Does this sound like the year 2000? ______. The future is much too important to simply guess about, the way the high school students did. So experts are regularly asked to predict accurately.By carefully studying the present, skilled businessmen, scientists, ａｎｄ　politicians are supposedly able to figure out in advance what will happen. But can they? One expert on cities wrote: Cities of the future would not be crowded but would have space fｏｒfarms ａｎｄ　fields. People would travel to world in "airbuses" all-weather helicopters carrying up to 200 passengers. When a person left the airbus station he could drive a coin-operated car equipped with radar. The radar equipment of cars would make traffic accidents "almost unheard off\'. Does that sound familiar? If the exert had been accurate it would, because he was writing in 1957. His subject was "The city of 1982". If the professionals sometimes sound like high-school students, it\'s probably because future study is still a new field. Here is an example fｏｒfuture study. Economic forecasting, ｏｒpredicting what the economy will do, has been around fｏｒa long time. But there have been some big mistakes in this field, too. In early 1929, most forecasters saw an excellent future fｏｒthe stock market. In October of that year, the stock market had its worst losses ever, ruining thousands of investors who had put their faith in financial foreseers. One forecaster knew that predictions about the future would always be subject to significant errors. In 1957, H. J. Rａｎｄ　of the Rａｎｄ　Corporation was asked about the year 2000, "Only one thing is certain," he answered. " Children born today will have reached the age of 43."【单选题】

A.In early 1929, most forecasters saw an excellent future fｏｒthe stock market.

B.Children born today will have reached the age of 43.

C.Actually, the article was written in 1958 ａｎｄ　the question was, "what will life be like in 1978?"

D.So experts are regularly asked to predict accurately.

E.Scientists are 80 percent accurate in predicting the future.

F.The radar equipment of cars would make traffic accidents "almost unheard off\'.

正确答案:C

答案解析:第1段主要介绍对未来的预测。作者问读者，所列的各种高科技的发展的预测是不是会在2000年发生？本题所在的句子说，实际上有人预测在1978年会发生。根据这个上下文，选项C填入后，意思是连贯的。1958年写的文章预测20年之后的高科技的发展。

2、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.Remembering involves getting the material back out when it is ______.【单选题】

A.short - term memory

B.relearning

C.needed

D.coded

E.recognition

F.slow forgetting rate

正确答案:C

答案解析:本题难度不大，答案依据比较明显，在文章第二段：…getting the material back out when it is needed回来看选项，C项needed符合原文句意，是答案。

5、Animal\'s "Sixth Sense"A tsunami was triggered by an earthquake in the Indian Ocean in December, 2004. It killed tens of thousands of people in Asia ａｎｄ　East Africa, Wild animals, however, seem to have escaped that terrible tsunami. This phenomenon adds weight to notions that they possess a "sixth sense" fｏｒdisasters, experts said.Sri Lankan Wildlife officials have said the giant waves that killed over 24,000 people along the Indian Ocean island\'s coast clearly missed wild beasts, with no dead animals found."No elephants are dead, not even a dead rabbit. I think animals can sense disaster. They have a sixth sense. They know when things are happening" H. D. Ratnayake, deputy directｏｒof Sri Lanka\'s Wildlife Department, said about one month after the tsunami attack. The waves washed floodwaters up to 2 miles inlａｎｄ　at Yala National Park in the ravaged southeast, Sri Lanka\'s biggest wildlife reserve ａｎｄ　home to hundreds of wild elephants ａｎｄ　several leopards."There has been a lot of scientific evidence about dogs barking ｏｒbirds migrating before volcanic eruptions ｏｒearthquakes. But it has not been proven," said Matthew van Lierop, an animal behaviｏｒassistant at Johannesburg Zoo. "There have been no specialist studies because you can\'t really test it in a lab ｏｒfield setting," he told Reuters. Other authorities concurred with this assessmetn."Wildlife seem to be able to pick up certain phenmenon, especially birds. There are many reports of birds detecting impending disasters," said Clive Walker, who has written several books on African wildlife.Animals certainly rely on the known senses such as smell ｏｒhearing to avoid danger such as predators. The notion of an animal "sixth sense" -ｏｒsome other mythical power-is an enduring one which the evidence on Sri Lanka\'s ravaged coast is likely to add to. The Romans saw owls ______ omens of impending disaster ａｎｄ　many ancient cultures viewed elephants as sacred animals endowed with special powers ｏｒattributes.【单选题】

A.on

B.as

C.for

D.in

正确答案:B

答案解析:本句的意思是“将……看成是”，而英语的用词是see...as，所以要选as。
