二、阅读理解
13.You can relax if remembering everything isn't your strong suit. Recent research makes the case that being forgetful can be a strength—in fact, selective memory can even be a sign of stronger intelligence.
Traditional research on memory has focused on the advantages of remembering everything. But looking through years of recent memory data, researchers found that the neurobiology of forgetting can be just as important to our decision-making as what our minds choose to remember.
Making intelligent decisions doesn't mean you need to have all the information at hand. It just means you need to hold onto the most valuable information. And that means clearing up space in your memory palace for the most up-to-date information on clients and situations. Our brains do this by creating new neurons(神经元)in our hippocampus, which have the power to overwrite(重写)existing memories that are influencing our decision-making.
If you want to increase the number of new neurons in our brain ’ s learning region,try exercising. Some aerobic exercise like jogging, power walking and swimming has been found to increase the number of neurons making important connections in our brains.
When we forget the names of certain clients or details about old jobs,the brain is making a choice that these details don't matter. Although too much forgetfulness can be a cause for concern,the occasional lost detail can be a sign of a perfectly healthy memory system. The researchers found that our brains facilitate decision-making by stopping us from focusing too much on unimportant past details. Instead,the brain helps us remember the most important part of a conversation.
We can get blamed for being absent-minded when we forget past events in perfect detail. These findings show us that total recall(记忆)can be overvalued. Our brains are working smarter when they aim to remember the right stories, not every story.
1.How can we help our brains produce more neurons
A.By having deep sleep frequently. B.By practicing swimming regularly.
C.By doing mental labor repeatedly. D.By learning new skills constantly.
2.Which of the following can best replace “facilitate” underlined in paragraph 5
A.postpone B.repeat C.promote D.abuse
3.What conclusion can be drawn from the text
A.Memory loss is well worth noticing.
B.Decisions can't be made without memories.
C.We shouldn't stress total recall too much.
D.Forgetting is even more important than remembering.
4.What can be a suitable title for the text
A.Caution:do remember to forget B.Why and how people choose to forget
C.Want to become smarter Learn to forget D.Being forgetful might mean you aresmarter
三、语法填空
14.根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Current digital technology gives us music of flawless quality. It also makes it easier to copy, upload and stream music without having to download it. ①_____________ However, as climate change is on everyone's mind these days, the question related to music arises: Which music consumption form is worse for the environment: CDs, vinyl(黑胶唱片),or digital music The answer might surprise you.
②_____________, logic would suggest that music downloads and online streaming are good for the environment. But must it surely be more environmentally friendly Even though streamed music is material-free, that doesn't mean it doesn't have an environmental impact. In fact, the information is searched and sent to our electronic devices across the network, which costs energy. ③_____________.
Researchers found that streaming an album over the Internet will use 27 times more energy than it takes to produce a single CD or vinyl record. In any given second, the music platform is serving about 2.5 million streams at the same time. If average albums contain twelve tracks, that means almost 210,000 albums, worth of music has been streamed. It will use nearly 8,000 times more energy than what making one CD takes. ④_____________ The only extra energy required is whatever you need to power your CD player.
The study was published before Record Store Day—an event that encourages listeners to buy physical record. ⑤_____________ Rather, they want you to think about your power use and choose services that minimise their effect on the planet. They also hope this could develop alternatives that are more sustainable without sacrificing the convenience you expect.
A. Since our digital music uses less plastic
B. This happens every time we stream music
C. As a result, streaming music becomes popular
D. Although streaming music is a greener alternative
E. Meanwhile, if you buy a CD, it's there permanently
F. It wants to convey effects of streaming on economy
G. But the researchers aren't advising playing music traditionally
答案以及解析
1.答案：allowing
解析：考查非谓语动词。句意：近期这家医院获 得了新的医疗设备，允许更多的病人被治疗。允许更多的病人被治 疗是获得新的医疗设备带来的自然而然的结果，故用动词-ing形式 作结果状语
2.答案：were driving
解析：考查时态。句意:当我正驱车前往伦敦时,突然发现走错了路。be doing sth. when...为固定句型,意为"正在做某事时,这时(突然)……",且根据found和were可知,此处应用过去进行时。
3.答案：it
解析：考査形式宾语。句意:请随身携带这张卡片,以便和我们联系。分析句子结构可知,it作形式宾语,后面的不定式是真正的宾语。
4.答案：combination
解析：考査词形转换。句意:正是才思与智慧的结合使他的文章具有很强的可读性。根据空前的冠词和空后的介词可知,空处应该用combine的名词形式combination,意为"结合, 联合”。
5.答案：to predict
解析：考査动词不定式。句意:这个计划会成功还是失败还难以预测。"主语+ be + adj.+ to do"是固定句型,故填to predict。
6.答案：was
解析：考查主谓一致。句意:警察认为,那位开车的男士应该为昨天发生的事故负责,而不是这些男孩负责。rather than连接两个名词或代词作主语时,谓语动词应与rather than前面的名词或代词在人称和数上保持一致,故谓语动词用单数形式。
7.答案：techniques
解析：考査词形转换。句意:这些小香囊历史悠久,可追溯到汉朝。它们是用独特的技术、各种彩色丝绸或带有不同图案的布料制成的。空处作宾语,要用名词形式,technique作 "技巧,手法"讲时是可数名词,其前没有限定词,所以此处要用复数形式。
8.答案：The next time you visit this page
解析：the next time为连词, 可用来引导时间状语从句,此时从句中谓语动词用一般现在时表将来。
9.答案：make our music club more popular
解析：根据提示可知,此处要用"make +宾语+宾补"结构,表示"使某事/物……"。此处应用our music club作宾语,用形容词比较级more popular作宾补。
10.答案：around the lake are some apple trees
解析：当将表语(通常是地点状语)置于句首加以强调时,其后用完全倒装语序。结合提示可知,此处应将around the lake置于句首,并将谓语置于主语前面。
11.答案：knowing that he won't be able to go home in a year
解析：分析句子结构可知,空处作伴随状语,John与knew之间为逻辑上的主谓关系,故应用动词-ing形式短语作伴随状语。
12.答案：The students as well as the teacher were very friendly
解析：as well as连接两个并列的成分,意为"不但……而且……"。当as well as连接两个并列主语时,谓语动词与as well as前面的主语保持一致。
13.答案：1.B; 2.C; 3.C; 4.D
解析：1.考查细节理解。根据第四段中的"Some aerobic exercise like jogging, power walking and swimming has been found to increase the number of neurons making important connections in our brains" 可知,一些有氧运动,如慢跑,快走和游泳,可以增加大脑中起重要连接作用的神经元的数故选B。
2.考查词义猜测。根据画线词所在句和下文中的"Moreover, the brain helps us remember the most important part of a conversation"可知,大脑阻止我们过多地关注过去不重要的细节,并且帮助我们记住对话中最重要的部分,从而促使我们做出决策,由此可知facilitate的意思是"促进,促使",相当于promote,故选C。
3.考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的"These findings show us that total recall(记忆力) can be overvalued. Our brains are working smarter when they aim to remember the right stories, not every story" 可知,这些发现告诉我们,记得所有细节的能力可能被高估了。我们的大脑非常聪明,它们只记住该记住的内容,而不是所有内容。由此可以推断出我们不应该过分强调记得所有细节的能力,故选C。
4.考查主旨大意。最后一段中的"Our brains are working smarter when they aim to remember the right stories, not every story"是全文的主旨句,结合全文内容可知这篇文章主要讲了健忘可能意味着你更聪明,故选D。
14.答案：①-⑤ CABEG
解析：①根据上文It also makes it easier to copy, upload and stream music without having to download it. 可知, 它还使复制、上传和用流式传播收听音乐变得更容易, 而无需下载。所以可推测下文将叙述这种情况带来的影响:因此, 流媒体音乐变得流行起来。故选C项。
②根据下文logic would suggest that, music downloads and online streaming are good for the environment (从逻辑上讲, 音乐下载和在线流式传播对环境是有好处的)可推测, 上文是说明数字音乐对环境有好处的理由, A项(因为我们的数字音乐更少使用塑料)符合语境。故选A项。
③根据上文In fact, the information is searched and sent to our electronic devices across the network, which costs energy. 可知, 事实上, 信息是通过网络搜索并发送到我们的电子设备上的, 这需要消耗能源。B项(每次我们用流式传播收听音乐时都会发生这一情况)承接上文。B项中的代词This是关键词。故选B项。
④根据下文The only extra energy required is whatever you need to power your CD player. 可知, 此处分析CD耗费能量的问题。E项符合语境, a CD为关键词。故选E项。
⑤根据下文Rather, they want you to think about your power use and choose services that minimise their effect on the planet. (相反, 他们想让你考虑你的能源使用情况, 并选择那些对地球影响最小的服务), 可知研究人员并没有建议使用传统方式播放音乐。Rather为关键词, 前后意思相反。故选G项。
