4."I thought to myself,"says Buzan,"if I buy a little radio,I get an instruction manual (说明书).If I buy a microwave,I get an instruction manual.But for the most important machine in the world,no instruction manual?"
Fifty years later,Buzan has become the world's leading speaker on the brain and learning.In the late 1960s,he invented the mind map,a visual representation of thought processes.
This kind of thinking has become a popular tool for planning,organizing,problem solving,and communicating across the world.He has since authored and co-authored over 100books that have appeared in more than 30languages.
"I think in most cases,people use less than 1percent of their brains,"he says.
But how do you expand this 1percent?How do you become the best student you can be?
According to Buzan,the answer is simple.You take a section of whatever it is that you are trying to learn,he says,and you read it for its essence (精髓、要素).Then you make a mind map of all the important details.For a truly effective mind map,you start with a colored image in the center of your page.Draw the first image that comes to mind on the topic you are mind mapping.Branch off from your central image and create one of your main ideas.From your main branches draw some sub-branches and from those sub-branches you can draw even more branches.He emphasizes that you should use plenty of images and colors as these help with memory recall and encourage creativity.
By using this visual format (形式),according to Buzan,your mind will begin to make associations that will help you remember more information for longer periods of time.
Buzan believes that traditional note-taking methods,such as lists and summaries,do not stimulate the brain's recall capacity or ability in the same way.Because of this,students will often find themselves locked away in their rooms for hours,trying hard to memorize separate details.Buzan believes that for a more effective and lasting way of studying,you must first understand how your brain works.
"Everyone is born smart,"he says."You just have to learn how to learn."
56.What is the main purpose of the first two paragraphs?D
A.To show that Tony Buzan was worried about his study.
B.To invite us to think about the importance of manuals.
C.To prove that the mind map is a useful tool for the brain.
D.To show why Tony Buzan studies the brain and learning.
57.What does the word"stimulate"mean in the passage?A
A.Excite.
B.Improve.
C.Encourage.
D.Affect.
58.What can we infer from the passage?B
A.If we learn the mind map,we will become the best student.
B.The mind map will help your brain connect separate details.
C.The mind map will be more effective if we put more details in it.
D.We will solve the problem if we make connections between ideas.
59.What is the best title for the passage?C
A.How to make the mind map?
B.Is the mind map widely used?
C.Can your memory be mapped?
D.Is the mind map helpful in thinking?

12.Future and Today
It is well known that everyone has his own dream as well as his own future.But do you know what future really is?I have to say that future is now.That is to say we must treasure every minute now.If we want to have a bright future,we should know how important time is and use it well.
There is an old English saying:"Gain time,gain life."Then what's time?Time is something that we can't see or touch,but we can feel it passing by.Time is always with us.When we are at table,time passes; when we play,time goes by unnoticeable.We always say"Time is money",but time is even more precious(珍贵的)than money,because when money is spent,we can earn it back.But if time is gone away,it will never return.So,some of us even say time is priceless(无价的).
We should always remember:future is now.For us students,we should try our best to work hard in order to create a great future of our own.We should make the best use of every hour and be the master of today.We should do everything before us as well as possible.And never put off what can be done today till tomorrow.
As we all know,"Time and tide wait for no man."If you waste today,you will regret tomorrow.So from now on,work hard.Tomorrow will be better,and your future will be brighter.Remember:"No pains,no gains."Today's hard work is the cause of tomorrow's harvest.
