[题目]The human brain weighs about 1.4 kilograms, but it can hold much more information than most comp——青夏教育精英家教网—

【题目】The human brain weighs about 1.4 kilograms, but it can hold much more information than most computers．However, there is another difference between humans and computers．Computers don't forget information they are given, but humans often do．No one remembers everything, and luckily we don't usually have to．But everyone can improve their memory if they want to．Here are some suggestions．

Try to use new information immediately．For example, if you meet someone who says "Hi! I'm Carlos．"Don't just say "Hello．" Repeat the person's name．Say "________"

Break a big number into smaller parts． For example, it's hard to memorize (记忆) 109244153．But if you break it into three parts 109/244/153--it becomes easier．

Write out what you need to remember over and over again．This will help you keep it in mind longer, especially for memorizing formulas (公式) or facts．

Always review information．If you bring what you've learned back to your mind, it becomes easier to remember． For example, before you go to sleep, it's a good idea to review the new things you learned that day．

Discuss with a friend．It is always easier to remember things through discussions．You can have a discussion about what's right and what's wrong, and it will lead to the right answer．

Never tell yourself that you have a bad memory．You can always do something to help improve your memory．And everyone's memory gets better if they use it often enough．

All the suggestions are helpful．If you follow them, you are certain to improve your memory．

【1】How many suggestions are mentioned in the passage?

A. Three．

B. Four．

C. Five．

D. Six．

【2】Which should be put in the blank (空格) in Paragraph 2?

【题目】A little boy was playing in his sandbox on a Saturday morning．While he was building roads and houses in the soft sand, he discovered a large stone in the middle of the sandbox．

The little boy pushed and pulled, but every time he thought he had made some progress, the stone tipped (倾斜) and then fell back into the sandbox．The little boy tried his best, but his only reward was to have the stone roll back．

Finally the boy cried．All that time the boy's father watched him from his living room window．At the moment tears fell, his father came to the boy and the sandbox．Gently but surely he said, "Son, why didn't you use all the strength that you had?" The boy said sadly, "But I did, Daddy, I did! I used all the strength that I had! "No, son," corrected the father．"You didn't ask me．"With that, the father reached down, picked up the stone and removed it from the sandbox．

Do you have "stones" in your life that need to be removed? Are you discovering that you are too weak to lift them? There is ONE who is always ready to give us the strength we need．Isn't it funny how we try so hard to do things on our own?

【1】The first paragraph mainly tells us ________．

【题目】Next time you make yourself a hot cup of tea or coffee，you might want to let it cool down a bit before drinking.

Researchers say letting your hot drinks cool off could help you avoid some kinds of cancer. Researchers at the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) found evidence that drinks at temperatures above 65 degrees Celsius, when swallowed, can cause cancer of the esophagus (食道). The researchers examined findings from other studies where tea and coffee were often served at 70degrees Celsius or above. Those studies were completed in Iran, China and South America.

In developed countries, health experts have linked esophageal cancer to smoking and alcoholic drinks. However, this form of cancer is more common in areas where people drink beverages at very high temperatures.

In Europe and the United States, many people drink coffee and tea at temperatures around 60degrees Celsius. And they often add milk which lowers the temperature considerably. However，tea﹣drinkers in Iran and mate﹣drinkers in South America often enjoy their beverages at closer to 70degrees Celsius.

The researchers note that South Americans not only drink their mate very hot，they also drink it through a metal straw. This sends the scalding liquid directly into the throat.

The findings, however, are good news for coffee drinkers. In 1991, the World Health Organization listed coffee as possibly carcinogenic (致癌的). WHO officials have since changed their position on that listing. They now suggest that the temperature of your hot drink is a greater risk factor than the actual drink itself.

The results suggest that drinking very hot beverages is one probable cause of esophageal cancer and that it is the temperature, rather than the drinks themselves, that appears to be responsible.

【1】What might be the cause of esophageal cancer in developed countries？

A. Smoking. B. Alcoholic drinks. C. Unhealthy vegetables. D. Hot drinks.

【2】Where do tea﹣drinkers like adding milk？

A. In China. B. In Iran. C. In South America. D. In Europe.

【3】What does the underlined word “scalding” in paragraph 5 mean？

A. Sweet. B. Hot. C. Sour. D. Harmful.

【4】What is the best title for the passage？

A. Cool it Down before Drinking B. Hot Drinks Are Still Popular

C. Hot Drinks Linked to Cancer D. Tea or Coffee, a Different Choice.
