C. success, writer D. a success, a money
【答案】C
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】考查名词辨析。句意:王先生在成为作家之前是个成功人士。success成功,不可数名词。若作可数名词,抽象名词具体化,表示“一个成功的人或事情”。此处前面已经有a,故of 后面不用冠词a。a man of success一个成功的人。turn为系动词,后面接名词作表语,turn writer成为作家,不用冠词,表示概念。故选C项。
2. None of the money ________ spent on useless things so far.
A. has been B. has C. have been D. Have
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查时态语态和主谓一致。句意:到目前为止,这些钱都没有花在无用的东西上。由时间状语so far可知,用现在完成时,主语none of the money与谓语动词spend是被动关系,且主语none指代不可数名词money,故谓语动词用单数,故选A。
3. — Will $ 1,000 ________ the cost of the trip
— I'm afraid not. Perhaps I need another $ 400.
A. pay B. charge C. cover D. afford
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意:—1000美元够付这次旅游的费用吗?—恐怕不行。也许我还需要400美元。A. pay付;B. charge要价,充电,控告;C. cover覆盖,采访,涉及,(钱,时间)够用;D. afford买的起。cover此处指钱够用,符合题意。故选C项。
4. Who will ________ the company when Mr. Smith gets retired.

5. It's surprising that your brother ________ Russian so quickly — he hasn't lived there very long.
A. pick up B. looked up C. put up D. made up
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查动词短语辨析。句意:你哥哥学俄语学得这么快,真令人吃惊——他在那儿住的时间不长。A. pick up 捡起,得到(尤指偶然地、无意地、不费劲地),学会,接载;B. look up向上看,改善,查阅;C. put up 举起,张贴,建造,提高,提供食宿;D. make up组成,补足,弥补,编造,化妆。根据句意,只有A项符合句意,picked up Russian意为“学会了俄语”。故选A项。

A. so B. or
C. and D. but
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查连词辨析。句意:你必须移开,否则卡车不能过去。A.so所以,表示因果关系;B.or否则,表示选择关系;C.and和,表示并列关系;D.but但是,表示转折关系。根据“ cannot get past you”可知你必须移开,否则卡车不能过去。故选B。

【分析】
【详解】考查连词。句意:她的表演非常完美,尽管还有其他20名参赛者,但一等奖仍然属于她。A.however然而;B.while尽管;C.though尽管;D.despite尽管。分析句子结构,前面有连词and,可知Her performance was perfect和后句the first prize still belonged to her是并列关系,the fact that there were other 20 participants是that引导的同位语从句,此句相当于一个the fact名词,而选项however一般后面有逗号隔开,作连接副词,后面接句子;while作连词,后面接句子;though作连词,后面接句子;despite作介词,后面接名词。故选D项。
9. The discovery of gold in Australia led thousands to believe that a fortune ________.
A. is made B. would made C. was to be made D. had made

【详解】考查时态和语态。句意:在澳大利亚发现的黄金使成千上万的人相信会发财。因为主句为一般过去时,所以从句用过去时态。fortune 这里表示财富,因为在澳大利亚发现金子,所以在那里“将会”发财,所以应用be to do sth.“将要做某事”,表示将来。且fortunate与make构成被动关系,所以用被动语态。故选C。
10. Every year, many graduates travel from one place to another, ________ for a well-paid job.
A. hunt B. hunting C. to hunt D. hunted
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:每年很多毕业生从一个地方到另一个地方,寻找高薪的工作。分析句子可知,谓语动词是travel,故hunt用非谓语动词形式作状语,hunt与逻辑主语graduates是主动关系,故用现在分词作伴随状语,故选B。

【答案】C
【解析】

Hiking in the mountains I met a young lady who wanted to pet my dog. While she played with him, I asked, “Do you have a dog of your own ” “He just died,” she said. She explained that as a child she got a little dog. They grew up together, went everywhere together and were best friends. She even took him to college though he was very old and couldn't get around well. And as he got worse, she stayed by him day and night thinking they would always be together.
But one day,while petting him, he growled(咆哮)and bit her hand. She was shocked. He never did that. How could he turn on her Friends convinced her to put him to sleep. Unwillingly she did, but admitted that she hated herself ever since. “How could I kill my lifetime friend ” she sobbed.
“Suppose,” I said, “your dog was a genius! Suppose he knew you better than you know yourself. He didn't turn on you. You were too young to know about his getting old and needing to go. He knew you needed a helping hand to let him go. . . so he bit you. And it worked, didn't it ”
She was coming out of her deep sadness. I added, “Is it hard to imagine that dogs have late friends calling them to dog heaven They never forget who they love. He is there. He still loves you more than ever. He knows you'll live a lot longer than he did.”
She was obviously happy now as she considered my words. We parted with a long hug and thanks. I'm pretty sure her dog was standing behind her, thanking me with his wagging tail and smiling face. Love is the highest kindness.

Standing on one leg is a simple way to assess someone's risk of suffering a stroke (中风), suggests a new study.
Researchers have found struggling to balance on one leg for 20 seconds or longer is linked to an increased risk of small blood vessel (血管) damage in the brain and reduced thinking ability in otherwise healthy people with no symptoms.
"Our study found the ability to balance on one leg is an important test for brain health. Individuals showing poor balance on one leg should receive increased attention, as this may indicate an increased risk of brain diseases and cognitive (认知的) decline," said Dr Tabara, a professor at Kyoto University Graduate School of Medicine in Japan.
The study, published in the journal Stroke, consisted of 841 women and 546 men, with an average age of 67. To measure onelegged standing time, they stood with their eyes open and raised one leg. The maximum time for keeping the leg raised was 60 seconds. The participants performed the examination twice and the better of the two times was used in the study analysis.
The researchers found that the inability to balance on one leg for longer than 20seconds was associated with brain diseases without symptoms. Overall, those with brain diseases were older and had high blood pressure than those who did not have such diseases.
Short onelegged standing time was also linked with lower cognitive score. Although previous studies have examined the connection between physical abilities and the risk of stroke, this is among the first studies to closely examine how long a person can stand on one leg as an indication of their overall brain health.
Dr Tabara and his team also found a strong link between struggling to stand on one leg and increased age.
23. Dr Tabara suggested that one who couldn't stand on one leg for more than 20 seconds .
A. try to improve his physical abilities
B. receive medical treatment for brain diseases
C. be given special attention to prevent accidents
D. be examined for other symptoms of brain diseases
24. Which of the following factors might decrease onelegged standing time according to the text?
a. Heart diseases.
b. Cognitive decline.
c. High blood pressure.
d. The aging process.
e. Brain diseases.
A. a, b, d
B. a, c, d
C. b, c, e
D. b, d, e
25. What can we learn about the study from the fourth paragraph?
A. It was led by Dr Tabara.
B. It included more than 1,300 people.
C. It examined people of different age groups.
D. It required the participants to close their eyes first.
26. Which of the following might be the best title for the text?
A. Overall Brain Health Deserves Close Attention
B. Brain Diseases Without Symptoms Require Attention
C Can't Stand on One Leg? You May Be at Risk of Stroke
D. Can't Keep Your Balance? You May Have Brain Damage
【答案】23. C 24. D 25. B 26. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇有关健康研究的说明文。新的研究表明,单腿站立保持平衡时间少于20秒的人有脑部疾病和认知能力下降的可能,并且有中风的危险。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段Individuals showing poor balance on one leg should receive increased attention, as this may indicate an increased risk of brain diseases and cognitive (认知的) decline,一句可知,Dr Tabara建议单腿站立时间低于20秒的人要特别注意,因为这些人可能有脑部疾病和认知能力下降的风险,应该多加注意以防发生不测。故选C。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段The researchers found that the inability to balance on one leg for longer than 20 seconds was associated with brain diseases without symptoms,第六段Short onelegged standing time was also linked with lower cognitive score.以及第七段Dr Tabara and his team also found a strong link between struggling to stand on one leg and increased age三句可知,减少单腿站立的因素主要有三个方面:脑部疾病、较低的认知水平、不断增加的年龄。故选D。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段The study, published in the journal Stroke, consisted of 841 women and 546 men, with an average age of 67.一句可知,这项研究总共包括1387人。故选B。
【26题详解】
主旨大意题。本文介绍了一项新的研究,研究表明单腿站立保持平衡时间少于20秒的人有脑部疾病和认知能力下降的可能,并且有得中风的风险。因此可得出C选项可以最为最佳题目(Can’t Stand on One Leg You May Be at Risk of Stroke不能单腿站立吗?你可能有得中风的危险)。故选C。
D
As digital devices (设备)have taken over society, “keyboard activity is now often recommended as a substitute for early handwriting," a new study notes. The idea is that typing may be easier for young children.
“Some schools in Norway have become completely digital," notes Audrey Vander Meer, the new study's leader, who measures brain activity to better understand learning and behaviors. She works at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in Trondheim. The human brain has developed to interact with the world in as many ways as possible, she notes. She believes that young children should learn to write by hand successfully, and, at the same time learn to manage a keyboard.
Using a pen involves more of the brain than using a keyboard, her new findings show. This is because writing and printing involve complex movements that activate more areas of the brain. The increased brain activity, "gives the brain more 'hooks' to hang your memories on," she explains.
Think about it. The same movement is required to type each letter on a keyboard. By comparison, when we write, our brain needs to think about and recover memories of the shape of each letter. We also need to use our eyes to watch what shapes we're writing. And we need to control our hands to press a pen or pencil to shape the different letters. All of this uses and connects more areas of the brain.
Along the way, these processes appear to “open the brain up for learning", says Vander Meer. So learning through only one format — digital — could be harmful, she worries.
Vander Meer also points out that taking notes by hand stimulates (激发)"visual notetaking". Rather than typing blindly, the visual note-taker has to think about what is important to write down. Then, key words can be "interlinked by boxes, and arrows, and supplemented by small drawings".
27. What is the main idea of the text
A. Digital devices are popular with students.
B. Handwriting beats typing in taking notes.
C. The process of taking notes changes thinking.
D. The new study makes contributions to science.
28. What should young kids do according to Vander Meer
A. Communicate with the world. B. Rely on keyboard activity.
C. Learn to write by hand. D. Master basic drawing skills.
29. How does the author draw the conclusion
A. By studying how the brain develops. B. By observing social phenomena.
C. By assessing functions of senses. D. By comparing ways of taking notes.
30. In which section of a newspaper may the text appear
A. Relationship. B. Fashion.
C. Culture. D. Science.
【答案】27. B 28. C 29. D 30. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了,数字化正在普及,然而一项研究表明,在记笔记时,手写比(用键盘)打字更有利于大脑发展,于学习有益,打字(数字化)对学习可能是有害的。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。第一段“引出电子设备,打字比手写更容易”,第二三段讲“手写比打字对大脑发展更好”,第四段讲“手写对大脑发展更好的原因”,第五段讲“数字化(打字)对学习可能是有害的”,最后一段讲“再次申明手记笔记的好处”,可知文章主要讲在记笔记上手写胜过打字,更有益于大脑发展。故选B项。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。由第二段中的“She believes that young children should learn to write by hand successfully, and, at the same time learn to manage a keyboard.”(她认为,幼儿应该学会成功地用手写字,同时还要学会管理键盘。),可知Audrey Vander Meer认为幼儿应该学会成功地用手写字。故选C项。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。第一段“引出电子设备,打字比手写更容易”,第二三段讲“手写比打字对大脑发展更好”,第四段讲“手写对大脑发展更好的原因”,第五段讲“数字化(打字)对学习可能是有害的”,最后一段讲“再次申明手记笔记的好处”,可知文章主要是通过比较记笔记的方式,即手写(记笔记)和打字(记笔记)对大脑的哪个更好得出了结论——手写比(用键盘)打字更有利于大脑发展,于学习有益,打字(数字化)对学习可能是有害的。故选D项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。由文章中心大意可知,文章通过比较记笔记的方式,即手写(记笔记)和打字(记笔记)对大脑的哪个更好得出了结论——手写比(用键盘)打字更有利于大脑发展,于学习有益,打字(数字化)对学习可能是有害的,文章可能会出现在报纸的“科学”版面上。故选D项。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
根据短文内容,从短文后面的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项是多余选项。
An old friend of mine was in town and organized a get-together. A mutual friend asked me if I was going. I answered no because I wasn’t interested in it.
___31___ However I just refused. Do you feel that you sometimes have to lie to spare people’s feelings I sure do. But I’m trying to do it less. Here’s why:
● ___32___
Do you feel it like a mini lack of good faith every time you say a white lie It doesn’t feel good because, at heart, you want to be honest.
● You have to remember lies.
Have you ever been caught in a lie I have. It feels untrustworthy. I don’t know about you, but my memory is not good enough to even remember all the true things I say. ___33___
● People respect the truth.
I had meant to go to a friend’s house for dinner once, but she called in the morning of the day to cancel. She said, “I’m sorry Susie but... I’m just so tired and I need today to rest.” I didn’t get angry at that moment. ___34___ And we had a nice phone call, instead.
● “No” is enough.
It’s so easy to give a quick “yes” and have regrets later, or makeup a lie to get out of something. But you don’t have to! You can say “no” at the start.
A calendar does not exist to be filled up___35___And there’s no shame in doing what you need, especially when you’re honest about it.
A. On the contrary, her frankness made me feel closer to her.
B. Therefore, you’d better remember lies in case you’re trapped.
C. Lying makes you feel bad.
D The space in our lives can be the best part.
E. Lying is costly and you’re too busy for that.
F. I could have made some acceptable excuse.
G. However, I forgave her though she had betrayed me.
【答案】31. F 32. C 33. E 34. A 35. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了为何要学会坦诚地拒绝而不是一味地撒谎求全。
【31题详解】
第一段以事例总起全文,讲述了我因不感兴趣而直接拒绝参加朋友组织的一次聚会。结合选项,F项意为“我本可以编个可让人接受的借口”与下句“However,I just refused.”(然而我却拒绝了)形成转折。故选F项。
【32题详解】
根据文章结构可知这里需要一个小标题。标题下面的内容提到“Do you feel it like a mini lack of good faith every time you say a white lie It doesn’t feel good because, at heart, you want to be honest. ”(每次你说善意的谎言,就像一个小小的诚信缺失。这感觉不太好,因为从内心来说,你想要诚实),结合选项,C项撒谎让你感觉糟糕符合题意。故选C项。
【33题详解】
根据空前文中的“It feels untrustworthy”(感觉不可靠的)说明撒谎是要付出代价的;“…my memory is not good enough to even remember all the true things I say”(我的记忆力不太好,甚至我说的真话都记不住),这里作者暗指:人们都很忙,没时间记那么多事,何况是撒过的谎。另外,小标题“You have to remember lies”中的“have to”强调代价,而干扰项B项Therefore,you’d better remember lies in case you’re trapped.中的“had better”强调建议,而且“remember lies”与文章主题“少撒谎”相悖。所以E项说谎是付出代价的并且你将忙于其中符合题意。故选E项。
【34题详解】
本段内容讲述了朋友因身体不适而坦诚地取消了之前的约会。结合空前的句子“I didn’t get angry at that moment.”(在那时我并没有生气。)以及本空可知,我不但不生气,反而因朋友的坦诚,觉得两个人的关系更加亲近了。前后句子有明显的转折。结合选项,A项相反,他的坦诚让我感到更亲近了,符合题意,故选A项。
【35题详解】
空前的句子“A calendar does not exist to be filled up.”与D选项形成语义上的补充,“a calendar”和“the space”也形成了照应,作者暗指:生活如同一本日历,应该有空白,结合选项D项我们应该有个人空间,符合题意,因此,我们应该学会坦诚地拒绝别人。故选D项。
第三部分:英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分)
第一节:完形填空(共20小题,每小题1.5分,满分30分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
I believe in miracles(奇迹) because I’ve seen so many of them. One day, a patient was referred to me who was one hundred and two years old. "There’s a___36___in my upper jaw, " she said. "I told my own dentist it’s nothing, but he ___37___I come to see you."
Her eighty-year-old son accompanied her. He would ___38___ to add something, but she stopped him. She wanted to tell everything herself. I found a large cancer that spread over much of the ___39___of her mouth. A careful examination later ___40___ that it was a particularly bad sort of cancer.

【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲介绍了世界各国政府可能会创建“疫苗护照”,对此不同人持不同的意见。
【56题详解】
考查时态。句意:护照将是持有者接种新冠疫苗的记录。根据语境可知,这里是作后置定语,并且表示动作已经完成。故填having got。
【57题详解】
考查名词的数。句意:它可以在智能手机上下载,也可以添加到身份证的微芯片中。可数名词card前无限定词,所以用名词的复数形式。故填cards。
【58题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:人们也可能需要一个能看体育赛事的地方。固定短语need sb to do需要某人做某事。故填to enter。
【59题详解】
考查副词。句意:该护照的支持者表示,它还将使人们更容易出国旅行。动词travel后用副词修饰。故填easily。
【60题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:世界卫生组织正在研究一项可能的国际计划,该计划将要求各国就需要何种护照达成一致。句中先行词是plan,指物,在从句中充当主语,所以用关系代词which引导非限制性定语从句。故填which。
【61题详解】
考查介词。句意:反对疫苗护照的人表示,这是不公平的,可能会造成社会不平等。be against反对。故填against。
【62题详解】
考查冠词。句意:许多人不想接种疫苗。这里的疫苗是特指,所以用定冠词the。故填the。
【63题详解】
考查时态与语态。句意:其他人不相信这种疫苗,说它还没有经过足够的测试,因此是不安全的。这里认为它不安全是因为它还没有经过测试,故这里是用完成时,且逻辑主语it与动词test是被动关系。故填hasn't been tested。
【64题详解】
考查名词。句意:有些人担心他们的健康数据的安全性。冠词the后接名词形式作宾语。故填security。
【65题详解】
考查形容词。句意:此外,疫苗并不是世界上所有人都能获得的。be动词后接形容词形式作表语。故填available。

It is one of my unforgettable experience in high school. When I was on Senior 2, I got a chance to study in the UK for three months as a exchange student. Impressing by the various activities in and after class, I took an active part in it. We had group discussions and play games with classmates to enjoy the cultural diversity. I developed a deeply friendship with many UK students from different backgrounds, what helped me understand the country better. Through the three months' study, not only did I get down to know the cultural differences, but I also learned how cooperate with others.
【答案】1. experience→experiences 2. on→in 3. a→an 4. Impressing→Impressed 5. it→them 6. paly→played 7. deeply→deep 8. what→which 9. 删除down 10. how后面加to
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要记叙了“我”作为交换生去英国学习的经历。
【详解】1.考查可数名词单复数。句意:它是我在高中难忘的经历之一。one +of+可数名词复数,是固定搭配,表示“......中的一个”,experience是可数名词,表示“经历”,故将experience改为experiences。
2.考查介词。句意:当我在高二时,我有机会作为交换生去英国学习三个月。表示“在高二”用介词in,故将on改为in。
3.考查冠词。句意:当我在高二时,我有机会作为交换生去英国学习三个月。exchange student表示“交换生”,student(学生)是可数名词单数,根据句意可知,此处表示泛指,且exchange(交换的)读音以元音音素开头,应用an,故将a改为an。
4.考查非谓语动词。句意:我对课堂上和课后的各种活动印象深刻,所以我参加了这些活动。分析句子结构可知,前半句是非谓语动词做状语,impress(使留下深刻印象)是动词,与主语I是被动关系,应用过去分词形式,单词位于句首,注意首字母大写,故将Impressing改为Impressed。
5.考查代词。句意:我对课堂上和课后的各种活动印象深刻,所以我参加了这些活动。根据句意可知,took an active part in(积极参加)后应用them,代指前面的activities(活动),故将it改为them。
6.考查时态。句意:我们进行小组讨论并与同学玩游戏,以享受文化的多样性。根据句意可知,句子描述的是过去的事,应用一般过去时,had(有)和play(玩)是并列关系,所以应用played,故将play改为played。
7.考查形容词。句意:我和有不同文化背景的许多英国学生建立了深厚的友谊,这帮助我更好地了解这个国家。friendship(友谊)是名词,应用形容词来修饰,故将deeply改为deep。
8.考查定语从句关系词。句意:我和有不同文化背景的许多英国学生建立了深厚的友谊,这帮助我更好地了解这个国家。分析句子结构可知,后半句是非限定性定语从句,先行词是前面整个句子,应用关系代词which,故将what改为which。
9.考查固定搭配。句意:通过这三个月的学习,我不仅开始了解文化差异,而且我也学到如何和别人合作。get to do是固定搭配,表示“开始做某事”,故删除down。
10.考查固定搭配。句意:通过这三个月的学习,我不仅开始了解文化差异,而且我也学到如何和别人合作。疑问词+to do是固定搭配,how to cooperate表示“如何合作”符合句意,故在how后面加to。

Dear Terry,
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Yours,
Li Hua
【答案】Dear Terry,
From your last letter, I learnt that you have no idea about how you should behave when you go to a Chinese family. Now, let me tell you about it.
When invited to a Chinese friend’s home, you should arrive a little earlier so that you can help the family prepare the dinner. At the same time, a proper gift should be brought with you to show respect for the host. Besides, you should pay attention to some table manners. The appropriate thing to do would be to eat the whatever-it-is and say how delicious it is. If you feel uncomfortable with this, you can just say a polite “thank you” and leave the food there. Never stick your chopsticks upright in the rice bowl, instead, lay them on your dish. Otherwise, it’s thought extremely impolite. The reason for this is that it seems to mean a sacrifice to the dead.
All in all, “When in China, do as the Chinese do ” is your best choice.
Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Hua

Hiking in the mountains I met a young lady who wanted to pet my dog. While she played with him, I asked, “Do you have a dog of your own ” “He just died,” she said. She explained that as a child she got a little dog. They grew up together, went everywhere together and were best friends. She even took him to college though he was very old and couldn't get around well. And as he got worse, she stayed by him day and night thinking they would always be together.

She was coming out of her deep sadness. I added, “Is it hard to imagine that dogs have late friends calling them to dog heaven They never forget who they love. He is there. He still loves you more than ever. He knows you'll live a lot longer than he did.”

Standing on one leg is a simple way to assess someone's risk of suffering a stroke (中风), suggests a new study.
Researchers have found struggling to balance on one leg for 20 seconds or longer is linked to an increased risk of small blood vessel (血管) damage in the brain and reduced thinking ability in otherwise healthy people with no symptoms.
"Our study found the ability to balance on one leg is an important test for brain health. Individuals showing poor balance on one leg should receive increased attention, as this may indicate an increased risk of brain diseases and cognitive (认知的) decline," said Dr Tabara, a professor at Kyoto University Graduate School of Medicine in Japan.
The study, published in the journal Stroke, consisted of 841 women and 546 men, with an average age of 67. To measure onelegged standing time, they stood with their eyes open and raised one leg. The maximum time for keeping the leg raised was 60 seconds. The participants performed the examination twice and the better of the two times was used in the study analysis.
The researchers found that the inability to balance on one leg for longer than 20seconds was associated with brain diseases without symptoms. Overall, those with brain diseases were older and had high blood pressure than those who did not have such diseases.
Short onelegged standing time was also linked with lower cognitive score. Although previous studies have examined the connection between physical abilities and the risk of stroke, this is among the first studies to closely examine how long a person can stand on one leg as an indication of their overall brain health.
Dr Tabara and his team also found a strong link between struggling to stand on one leg and increased age.
23. Dr Tabara suggested that one who couldn't stand on one leg for more than 20 seconds .
A. try to improve his physical abilities
B. receive medical treatment for brain diseases
C. be given special attention to prevent accidents
D. be examined for other symptoms of brain diseases
24. Which of the following factors might decrease onelegged standing time according to the text?
a. Heart diseases.
b. Cognitive decline.
c. High blood pressure.
d. The aging process.
e. Brain diseases.
A. a, b, d
B. a, c, d
C. b, c, e
D. b, d, e
25. What can we learn about the study from the fourth paragraph?
A. It was led by Dr Tabara.
B. It included more than 1,300 people.
C. It examined people of different age groups.
D It required the participants to close their eyes first.
26. Which of the following might be the best title for the text?
A. Overall Brain Health Deserves Close Attention
B. Brain Diseases Without Symptoms Require Attention
C. Can't Stand on One Leg? You May Be at Risk of Stroke
D. Can't Keep Your Balance? You May Have Brain Damage
D
As digital devices (设备)have taken over society, “keyboard activity is now often recommended as a substitute for early handwriting," a new study notes. The idea is that typing may be easier for young children.
“Some schools in Norway have become completely digital," notes Audrey Vander Meer, the new study's leader, who measures brain activity to better understand learning and behaviors. She works at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in Trondheim. The human brain has developed to interact with the world in as many ways as possible, she notes. She believes that young children should learn to write by hand successfully, and, at the same time learn to manage a keyboard.
Using a pen involves more of the brain than using a keyboard, her new findings show. This is because writing and printing involve complex movements that activate more areas of the brain. The increased brain activity, "gives the brain more 'hooks' to hang your memories on," she explains.
Think about it. The same movement is required to type each letter on a keyboard. By comparison, when we write, our brain needs to think about and recover memories of the shape of each letter. We also need to use our eyes to watch what shapes we're writing. And we need to control our hands to press a pen or pencil to shape the different letters. All of this uses and connects more areas of the brain.
Along the way, these processes appear to “open the brain up for learning", says Vander Meer. So learning through only one format — digital — could be harmful, she worries.
Vander Meer also points out that taking notes by hand stimulates (激发)"visual notetaking". Rather than typing blindly, the visual note-taker has to think about what is important to write down. Then, key words can be "interlinked by boxes, and arrows, and supplemented by small drawings".

It is one of my unforgettable experience in high school. When I was on Senior 2, I got a chance to study in the UK for three months as a exchange student. Impressing by the various activities in and after class, I took an active part in it. We had group discussions and play games with classmates to enjoy the cultural diversity. I developed a deeply friendship with many UK students from different backgrounds, what helped me understand the country better. Through the three months' study, not only did I get down to know the cultural differences, but I also learned how cooperate with others.
