题目内容

If you do not use your arm or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory(记忆力) is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong. If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault(过错). But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame(受责备), and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people can’t read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things they cannot write down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised. So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: Practice remembering.

试题分析:

1.细节题。第一段When someone else says that his memory(记忆力) is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.当另一个人说他的记忆力是差的时,实际上,他并没有给它足够多的机会来使它变得强大。可知,一个人的记忆力差,是因为记忆没有被经常使用。故选C

2.细节题。第一段If you do not use your arm or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again.如果你一段时间不使用你的胳膊或腿,他们会变得很乏力;当你再开始使用它们的时候,它们会慢慢变得强壮起来。故选C

3.判断题。你的记忆力的使用原理和你的胳膊、腿的使用原理是同样的。从Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.可知,A正确。

像胳膊和腿一样,如果你不给记忆力足够多的机会去使用,你的记忆力会变得很差,B正确。如果你想要拥有一个更好的记忆力,就不要学习如何去读写,从最后两句可知,C错误。一个好的记忆力来自于更多的练习。从文章最后一句可知,D正确。故选C

4.细节题。从This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things they cannot write down in a little notebook.这是因为他们不能读或写,所以不得不记住他们不能记在笔记本上的事情。可知,他们不得不一直使用他们的记忆力。故选C

5.主旨题。本文主要讲的是,正如胳膊和腿,人的记忆力如果长时间不使用,就会变得很差。因此,如果一个人要想拥有好的记忆力,就必须更多的使用它。可知,本文的标题最好是:如何拥有好的记忆力。故选B

考点:说明文

点评:本文着重介绍了如何增强记忆力,并通过和自己的手臂、腿进行类比进一步形象的说明如何来提高记忆力。文章意思明朗,所出的题目也不难,答题时学生牢记紧扣文章,将答案在文章中画出来再一一作答,定能够答得很好。

根据短文内容,从短文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项。

What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, and red?  71  Do you prefer grays and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be a pessimist(悲观者). At least, this is what psychologists(心理专家) tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of colors preference, as well as the effect that colors have on human beings.   72 If you happen to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.

 73  A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day.  74  A black bridge over the Thames River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides than any other bridge in the area ---until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply; perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.

 Do you have a sore throat, a running nose and a headache? Do you keep coughing and sneezing? If you do, the chances are that you have a cold or perhaps flu--- but which one? Although both colds and flu are caused by viruses, they are very different illnesses.

Colds, which usually last about a week, affect the nose most. They commonly cause a runny nose and sneezing. Sometimes, they cause a headache, a cough and slightly aching muscles.

Flu is much more serious illness and is caused by different group of viruses. People with flu usually get all the symptoms described above. However, they also get a high fever, a dry cough and much worse aching. Fever is one of the typical symptoms of the flu for all ages. The symptoms also last much longer. Sometimes they don’t disappear for at least two weeks.

Flu can be a deadly disease. The elderly, who are weaker and less healthy than most younger people, can die from flu. This is one reason why old people are advised to have a flu injection before the start of winter when flu is most common. This injection is inexpensive and definitely worth it.

If you have a cold or flu, you must always deal with used tissues carefully. Don’t leave dirty tissues on your desk or on the floor. Someone else has to pick these up and viruses could be passed on. And finally, remember to cover your nose and mouth when you sneeze!You don’t want to see the small drop of liquids blown out of your nose and mouth when you sneeze, do you? Disgusting, eh? Now you can understand why it’s a good idea to cover your nose and mouth when you sneeze!
