1、Keeping Cut Flowers1 While everybody enjoys fresh cut flowers around his house, few people know how to keep them fｏｒas long as possible. This may be done by keeping in mind a few simple fact. 2 An important thing to remember about cut flowers is that they are sensitive to temperature. Fｏｒexample, studies have shown that cut carnations (康乃馨) retain their freshness eight times longer when kept at 12℃ than when kept at 26℃. Keeping freshly harvested flowers at the right temperatures is probably the most important aspect of flower care. 3 Flowers are not intended by nature to live very long. Their biological purpose is simply to attract birds ｏｒinsects, such as bees, fｏｒpollination (粉). After that, they quickly dry up ａｎｄ　die. The process by which flowers consume oxygen ａｎｄ　produce carbon dioxide, called respiration, generates the energy the flower needs to give the flower its shape ａｎｄ　color. The making of seeds also depends on this energy. While all giving things respire, flowers have a high level of respiration. A result of all this respiration is heat, ａｎｄ　fｏｒflowers the level of heat relative to the mass of the flower is very high. Respiration also brings about the eventual death of the flower. Thus the greater the level of respiration, the sooner the flower dies. 4 How, then, to control the rate at which flowers die? By controlling respiration. How is respiration controlled? By controlling temperature. We know that respiration produces heat, but the reverse is also true. Thus by maintaining low temperatures, respiration is reduced ａｎｄ　the cut flower will age more slowly. 5 Another vital factｏｒin keeping cut flowers is the quality of the water in which they are placed. Flowers find it difficult to "drink" water that is dirty ｏｒotherwise polluted. Even when water looks ａｎｄ　smells clean, it almost certainly contains harmful substances that can endanger the flowers. To rid the water of these unwanted substances, household chlorine bleach (含氯漂白剂) can be used in small quantities. It is recommended that 15 drops of chlorine bleach (at 4% solution) be added to each liter of water. The water ａｎｄ　solution should also be replaced each day. The aging of cut flowers can be slowed down____. 【单选题】

A.by keeping its original shape ａｎｄ　color

B.in the life ofthe cut flower

C.to produce carbon dioxide

D.fｏｒas long as possible

E.by controlling temperature

F.to replace the water ａｎｄ　solution every day

正确答案:E

答案解析:本题的答案可以在第4段最后一句中找到，把选项E填入空格中，该题几乎是第4段最后一句的完整重现，故选E。

3、Meet Your MemoryMemory 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.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 blain until it is needed; ａｎｄ　(3) retrieval (提取) refers to getting the material back out when it is needed.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.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 1 ______.【单选题】

A.Why do we forget things?

B.How do we measure memory?

C.What are the stages memory consists of?

D.What is the difference between short-term memory ａｎｄ　long-term memory?

E.What is memory?

F.Who may have a poｏｒmemory?

正确答案:E

答案解析:第一段主题句为第一句Memory is something that cannot be seen, touched ｏｒweighed. 记忆力看不见、摸不着、也不可衡量。该段分别从这三个方面对记忆力进行了简单定义。E选项What is memory?（什么是记忆力？）与其意思一致，故E为正确答案。

4、English ａｎｄ　English Community1 There is no doubt that English is a useful language. The people who speak English today make up the largest speech community in the world with the exception of speakers of Chinese. 2 A speech community is similar to other kinds of communities. The people who make up the community share a common language. Often they live side by side, as they do in a neighborhood, a village, ｏｒa city. More often they form a whole country. National boundaries, however, are not always the same as the boundaries of a speech community. A speech community is anyｇｒｏｕｐof people who speak the same language no matter where they happen to live. 3 We may say that anyone who speaks English belongs to the English speech community. Fｏｒconvenience, we may divide the speakers into two groups: one in which the speakers use English as their native language, the other in which the speakers learn English as a second language fｏｒthe purpose of education, commerce, ａｎｄ　so on. 4 Learning a second language extends one\'s vision ａｎｄ　expands the mind. The history ａｎｄ　literature of a second language record the real ａｎｄ　fictional lives of people ａｎｄ　their culture; a knowledge of them adds to our ability to understａｎｄ　ａｎｄ　to feel as they feel. Learning English as asecond language provides another means of communication through which the window of the entire English speech community becomes a part of our heritage. Overall there are more speakers of Chinese than of____. 【单选题】

A.a second language

B.the same language

C.the same speech community

D.any other language

E.national boundaries

F.a part ofone\'s heritage

正确答案:D

答案解析:从文章第1段可知，说汉语的人比说任何其他语言的人都要多。

5、Meet Your MemoryMemory 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.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 blain until it is needed; ａｎｄ　(3) retrieval (提取) refers to getting the material back out when it is needed.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.One measure of memory is recall, which requires you to produce information by searching the memory fｏｒit.

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:根据题干线索词getting the material back定位原文至第二段，该段只有一句话，但其后一部分提到retrieval (提取) refers to getting the material back out when it is needed. 这里retrieval与题干中的remembering意思相近，题干是对该部分的同义改写。由此推知，所需添加成分即为句中画线部分。C选项needed属于原文复现，故C为正确答案。
