阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information,are people remembering less If you know your computer will save information,why store it in your own personal memory,your brain Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.
In a recent study,Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments.She and her research team wanted to know the Internet is changing memory.In the first experiment,they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer.The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information.The second group understood that the computer would not save it.Later,the second group remembered the information better.People in the first group knew they could find the information again,so they did not try to remember it.
In another experiment,the researchers gave people facts to remember,and told them where to find the information on the Internet.The information was in a specific computer folder (文件夹).Surprisingly,people later remembered the folder location better than the facts.When people use the Internet,they do not remember the information.Rather,they remember how to find it.This is called “transactive memory (交互记忆)”.
According to Sparrow,we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet.Instead,computer users are developing stronger transactive memories;that is,people are learning how to organise huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date.This doesn’t mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent,but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.
21.What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow’s research
A.We are using memory differently.
B.We are becoming more intelligent.
C.We have poorer memories than before.
D.We need a better way to access information.
22.Why does the passage begin with two questions
A.To introduce the main topic.
B.To show the author’s attitude.
C.To describe how to use the Internet.
D.To explain how to store information.
23.What can we learn about the first experiment
A.Sparrow’s team typed the information into a computer.
B.The two groups remembered the information equally well.
C.The first group did not try to remember the information.
D.The second group did not understand the information.
24.What do people do in transactive memory
A.To keep the information in mind.
B.To change the quantity of information.
C.To organise information like a computer.
D.To remember how to find the information.
B
When John was growing up,other kids felt sorry for him.His parents always had him weeding the garden,carrying out the garbage and delivering newspapers.But when John reached adulthood,he was better off than his childhood playmates.He had more job satisfaction,a better marriage and was healthier.Most of all,he was happier.Far happier.
These are the findings of a 40-year study that followed the lives of 456 teenage boys from Boston.The study showed that those who had worked as boys enjoyed happier and more productive lives than those who had not.“Boys who worked in the home or community gained competence and came to feel they were worthwhile members of society,” said George Vaillant,the psychologist who made the discovery.“And because they felt good about themselves,others felt good about them.”
Vaillant’s study followed these males in great detail.Interviews were repeated at ages 25,31 and 47.Under Vaillant,the researchers compared the men’s mental-health scores with their boyhood-activity scores.Points were awarded for part-time jobs,housework,effort in school,and ability to deal with problems.
The link between what the men had done as boys and how they turned out as adults was surprisingly sharp.Those who had done the most boyhood activities were twice as likely to have warm relations with a wide variety of people,five times as likely to be well paid and 16 times less likely to have been unemployed.The researchers also found that IQ and family social and economic class made no real difference in how the boys turned out.
Working at any age is important.Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility,independence,confidence and competence—the underpinnings (基础) of emotional health.They also help him understand that people must cooperate and work toward common goals.The most competent adults are those who know how to do this.Yet work isn’t everything.As Tolstoy once said,“One can live magnificently in this world if one knows how to work and how to love,to work for the person one loves and to love one’s work.”
25.What do Vaillant’s words in Paragraph 2 serve as
A.A description of personal values and social values.
B.An analysis of how work was related to competence.
C.An example for parents’ expectations of their children.
D.An explanation of why some boys grew into happy men.
26.What does the underlined word “sharp” probably mean in Paragraph 4
A.Quick to react.
B.Having a thin edge.
C.Clear and definite.
D.Sudden and rapid.
27.What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A.Competent adults know more about love than work.
B.Emotional health is essential to a wonderful adult life.
C.Love brings more joy to people than work does.
D.Independence is the key to one’s success.
28.What do we know about John
A.He enjoyed his career and marriage.
B.He had few childhood playmates.
C.He received little love from his family.
D.He was envied by others in his childhood.
C
Everyone needs to be safe,loved and to have a sense of belonging.These are inborn and natural basic needs.In an effort to have these needs satisfied,many of us tend to please others.And it works for a while.We find that we experience less conflict with others,but the conflict within ourselves grows.Saying “no” produces a feeling of guilt and saying “yes” brings anger.
My father was in the military,so we moved frequently.Being shy,I didn’t make friends.What’s more,I grew up in a household where grades,image and how others saw our family were very important.In our household a “C” was unacceptable,a “B” should have been an “A” and an “A” meant the lesson was too easy.I was too skinny,my sister was too fat and my brother’s lips and ears were too big for his tiny head.
To stop pleasing others is easier said than done.It’s a long process,one in which I am consistently working to be perfect.The turning point for me came shortly after I got married.The very first thing we did to end the cycle of catering to others was develop our own identity as individuals and then as a couple.And then we developed a strong set of core values and a vision for our future.The third and one of the most valuable things we did during this process was develop our own personal influence on others and we valued deeply the opinions of the wiser and more successful people around us.
Besides,we should understand that sometimes helping people actually hurts them.The struggle is necessary for success.The struggle strengthens character,making people determined.So sometimes allowing people to struggle is the best thing you can do for them.
29.How are we likely to feel when pleasing others
A.Satisfied. B.Guilty.
C.Happy. D.Angry.
30.What can we infer from the author’s experience as a child
A.He grew up doing a lot of housework.
B.His parents had great expectations of the children.
C.He realised the value of opinions from others.
D.It was hard for him to adjust to the moving life.
31.What is the third paragraph mainly about
A.What steps the author took to go on pleasing others.
B.Why the author further developed his values and character.
C.How the author stepped out of the cycle of pleasing others.
D.When the author turned to others for their valuable opinions.
32.What does the author suggest doing
A.Helping others without delay.
B.Thinking twice before offering help.
C.Refusing to help others.
D.Leaving someone in trouble alone.

When writing the story of your life,don’t let someone else hold the pen. 36 Here are some ideas for writing a life story:
Live happily in your own way.You are not in this world to live up to the expectations of others,nor should you feel that others are here to live up to yours.What success means to each of us is totally different.Success to others may mean being a good parent.Success is only about spending your life happily in your own way.
37 There are thousands of possible paths up the mountain of life,so it really doesn’t matter which path you start off on.The only mistake is by wasting time running around at the base of the mountain,telling everyone that your life path is wrong.
Embrace (乐意采纳) new ideas,lessons and challenges.Sometimes growing up means growing apart from old habits,relationships,and situations,and finding something new that truly moves you. 38 You should look very clearly into the unknown and enjoy it.Because when you come in contact with things that you don’t know,that’s when you’re learning,growing,and truly living.
Live honourably through kindness.If you live honourably,no matter how old you get,you’ll never lose your beauty. 39
Spend quality time with people you love. 40 People don’t live forever.Appreciate what you have,who loves you and who cares for you.You’ll never know how much they mean until the day when they are no longer beside you.Someday you will either regret not doing so,or you will say,“I’m glad I did.”
A.Lost time is never found again.
B.Appreciate the little things in life that mean a lot.
C.Change your path when you must,but keep moving forward.
D.There is nothing more wonderful than seeing life as an adventure.
E.For others,it may mean to simply be happy or it can be all of the above.
F.And remember,there is no better thing than reaching out and holding the hand of someone in need.
G.Make wise choices every day because the way you live each day is a sentence in the story of your life.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Deep in the forest,my husband and I had fun climbing over and crawling under the downed trees that blocked the dirt path before us.It was May,yet we walked up a snow-covered hill.When we noticed our jeans were wet up to our knees,it did not dampen our spirits.Not once did we say,“let’s turn around.” This was our vacation,and we were on an adventure.Little did we know this was the beginning of many more surprises.
The trail was marked as an easy one-kilometre hike,yet we were already walking a long distance.Our lightheartedness stopped when we came out into a clearing and saw a parking lot without our rental car in it.As my eyes scanned the surroundings,nothing looked familiar.My heart raced.I realised we were lost in a national park that did not officially open for another week.
Usually,I am the calm one in the relationship,but my husband surprised me with his calmness.This did not comfort me;in fact,it heightened my fear.As we walked,I asked my husband to call for help,but there was no cellphone signal in this isolated (偏僻的) area.
It was awfully quiet except for our footsteps hitting the road,and my heavy breathing.My husband suggested we conserve energy and walk slower.With each step on the road,my feet and thighs hurt while my mind raced with thoughts about people who got lost in the Canadian woods for days.
My vision sharpened.I noticed everything around me:the trees,rocks and snow.I thought we could eat the snow on the ground in case we needed water.For the first time in my life,I was ready and willing to get a ride,but we did not meet with a single car on the road.Silently,I prayed multiple times.We focused on each other,made joint decisions and connected through gratitude.We managed to stay on the main road and walked straight on.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
My husband suddenly spotted a small building on a hill in the distance.
Just then,a friendly woman appeared,saying,“Hello.”

Last week,we took the foreign students to experience the authentic tea culture,which turned out to be extremely rewarding.
On arriving at the tea house,the foreign students were impressed by the unique tea pots and tea cups.I gave them a vivid introduction of tea culture and taught them how to make tea.Then I asked them to have a try.Washing the tea pots,adding tea leaves,and pouring water into the cups,they followed my instructions and immersed themselves in the charming tea culture.
At the end of the activity,we took a picture to memorize the unforgettable day.

My husband suddenly spotted a small building on a hill in the distance.In no time did we find ourselves heading for it.We were filled with hope and excitement to find such a building in the middle of nowhere.We climbed up the hill at a swinging pace as if all the pains were gone.As we approached,a sign came into sight,which read:Administration Office.However,it was not open for business.The empty hall made us nervous all at once.We stood there hopelessly wondering what to do next.
Just then,a friendly woman appeared,saying,“Hello.”I could barely hold back my enthusiasm and blurted out,“We’re lost!” She comforted us and opened a room for us to take a break.Seeing we were cold and hungry,she treated us with hot chocolate.After studying the map,we figured out that our car was parked over three kilometres away.She offered us a ride back to our car and we accepted gladly.I felt relieved to see our rental car again.What a blessing to have such an unforgettable experience!
