The intelligence times provide us much convenience,but at the same time,some of our abilities are being weakened gradually.

1. Memorizing phone numbers

It was annoying to remember numbers. Now we simply add them to our contacts list. That usually works well unless our device is lost,stolen,or damaged. No one can be expected to remember all their contact numbers. What we can do is memorize 5 of our most important contact numbers. This should include a mixture of family,friends and business. If you're really ambitious you can memorize 5 contacts for each category.

2. Map-reading skills

The convenience and effectiveness of GPS guidance systems and digital maps generated by search engines is unquestionable. They've definitely made our lives easier. What we don't get from using these devices and applications is the increased ability to understand spatial orientation(空间方向)and navigation.

To renew or acquire those skills,try using physical maps to plan your next trip. After a few trips,you'll be pleasantly surprised with how useful a physical map can be.

3. Photography

Even amateur photography requires a basic learning about lighting,depth,and composition. This is true for digital photography. Most smart cameras automatically make these adjustments. We no longer have to learn the art of photography. On most devices,this is easily changed by turning off the automatic settings. Experiment with setting by hand the scene modes,lighting,and zoom. You just may learn that you're a “true photographer”.

4. Reading comprehension

The primary cause is E-reader. They're convenient and can store thousands of books. But there's evidence that E-reader makes it more difficult for readers to keep and recall information they just read. Don't worry! What we should do is make an effort to read printed books. This will be especially helpful when seeking information we need for academic or career purposes.

5.Hand-written correspondence(通信)

Writing letters and notes include hand writing skills,organizational skills,and learning about the person or persons you correspond with. This is another easily regained skill. Send a letter to an old friend,relative or acquaintance.

1.What's the disadvantage by adding all numbers to the contacts list?

A. We may only have the ability to remember 5 numbers.

B. It's hard to find the number from the contacts list.

C. We might lose all our phone numbers accidentally.

D. Our device is more easily damaged or stolen.

2.To make yourself a “true photographer”,you ______.

A. must make it clear how the digital camera works itself

B. have to make your camera do the adjustments automatically

C. don't need to learn the art of photography

D. had better try to set the scene modes,lighting,and zoom by hand

3.E-readers are thought to weaken our reading comprehension because ______.

A. they are convenient and can store thousands of books

B. they make it more difficult for us to recall information

C. less people can afford to buy E-readers

D. people are not fond of reading printed books nowadays

4.The author of the text seems to ______.

A. be worried that we might lose some basic abilities in intelligence society

B. point out to us the abilities one should have for adapting to the modem society

C. be glad that people will regain these abilities by using them often in daily life

D. find out that these abilities will probably make modern people different from before

Pierre is a 25-year-old penguin at the California Academy of Sciences.Due to his old age,he was going bald,which made him feel too cold to swim in the pool.Therefore,biologists at the academy had a wetsuit created for this penguin to help him get back in the swimming pool.

Unlike marine(海生的) mammals,which have a layer of blubber(鲸脂) to keep them warm,penguins depend on their waterproof feathers.Without them,Pierre was unwilling to jump into the swimming pool and ended up trembling on the side of the pool while his 19 peers played in the water.

“He was cold:he would shake,”said Pam Schaller,a senior biologist.Schaller first tried a heat lamp to keep Pierre warm.Then she got another idea:if wetsuits keep humans warm in the cold Pacific,why not make one for Pierre?

Schaller designed the suit,which covered Pierre’s body and had small openings for his flippers.

“I would walk behind him and look at where there were any gaps.and cut and refit until it looked like it was extremely suitable.”she said.

One concern was that the other penguins would reject Pierre in his new suit,but in fact,they accepted his new look.He swam freely and got along with others well,although he was the only penguin with a black stomach.

Schaller couldn’t say for sure whether the wetsuit allowed Pierre to recover his fine feathers,but” certainly we were able to keep him comfortable during a period of time that would have been very difficult for him to stay comfortable”.

Pierre will take off his suit after his new feathers grow back.
