九、阅读理解
A
Who would win in a competition to memorize numbers, a chimp(黑猩猩) or a teenager The teenager Think again. Scientists have proved that chimps perform better than human beings when it comes to this kind of problem. We may have to rethink what we believe about human memory.
Memory is our ability to learn something, save it and recall it when needed. Our memories are important to our sense of self, our personalities, and our ability to understand the world.
Scientists say that there are different types of memory. There is short-term memory and long-term memory. Your short-term memory saves information for a few seconds or a few minutes. For example, the time it takes to compare the prices of a few items in a store. Long-term memory involves the information you try hard to keep, because it’s meaningful to you (an example is data about family and friends. ) And then there is visual memory and sound memory. But these are not hard and fast: scientists argue a lot about the nature of memory.
Scientists have also found that people memorize things in different ways. Some memorize better with the help of pictures. Others are helped more by sounds. One thing’s for sure. If you can combine different kinds of memory together, you will remember a lot! So why not try pictures with English words At the same time listen to recordings of the same group of words. It may help when it comes to memorizing it.
Imagination and association can be useful too. By imagination scientists mean picturing a word in your mind. Association means relating the word to something you already know.
1.What can we learn from Paragraph 1
A. Chimps are cleverer than human beings.
B. Chimps can memorize numbers better than teenagers.
C. Human memory is not as good as before.
D. Chimps perform better than human beings in many aspects.
2. How many kinds of memory are mentioned in the article
A. Two B. Three C. Four D. Five
3. According to the article, which of the following is the best way to memorize words
A. By watching TV. B. By listening to music.
C. By writing them out many times. D. By listening and watching pictures.
4. What does the underlined word “relating” mean according to the passage
A. 联系 B. 猜测 C. 结合 D. 替代
5. According to the article, which of the following is TRUE
A. Memory is the most important ability for human beings.
B. Long-term memory usually involves more important things.
C. Scientists have made sure of the nature of memory.
D. Imagination is better than association in memorizing things.
【答案】BCDAB
【解析】本文介绍了记忆的类型,以及人们用不同的方法记忆东西。想象和联想也对记忆有帮助。
1. 细节理解题。根据第一段“Scientists have proved that chimps perform better than human beings when it comes to this kind of problem.”可知,黑猩猩比青少年更能记住数字。故选B。
2. 细节理解题。根据第三段“There is short-term memory and long-term memory.”和“And then there is visual memory and sound memory.”可知,文中提到记忆的类型有短期记忆,长期记忆,视觉记忆和声音记忆,因此一共有四种类型,故选C。
3. 推理判断题。根据第四段“So why not try pictures with English words At the same time listen to recordings of the same group of words. It may help when it comes to memorizing it.”可知,记单词得最好的方法是“听录音”和“看图片”,故选D。
4. 词句猜测题。根据最后一段“Association means relating the word to something you already know”可知,此处表示把单词和你已经知道的东西联系起来;故划线部分relating意为“联系”,故选A。

B
Memory collects and stores information that we need for different tasks. It also plays an important role in helping us recognize (识别) and remember important people and special things.
Some diseases destroy the brain’s memory function (功能). Yet even without these terrible diseases, some people, like busy entrepreneurs (企业家), can risk losing stored memories and the ability to form and keep new ones. Besides, our unhealthy lifestyles, for example, little sleep, can hurt memory function. Luckily, science gives us hope with ways to improve our memory.
Use games and apps to train your brain.
A 2018 study found that a lot of video games can improve memory-related areas in the brain. If you aren’t a fan of video games, consider brain-training and memory apps to play with when you have a break. You can also try crossword, find-a-word and picture search apps. Board games (棋类游戏) also help.
Exercise regularly. While mental exercise helps improve your memory skills, physical exercise is also important. Several research studies show that regular physical exercise is good for memory.
Reduce stress levels. Research has found that some people with dementia (痴呆) actually didn’t have it at all. Instead, stress had hurt their memory. By using stress reduction methods they were able to get and even improve memory function again.
Eat your vegetables and fruit. A study showed that men may improve their memory by eating more vegetables and fruit. The study included about 28, 000 men in their early 50s who answered questions every four years. The study showed the men who ate more vegetables and fruit each day didn’t have poor thinking skills as often as those who ate less each day.
1. What is the main idea of Paragraph 2
A. Busy people usually have memory loss. B. Diseases destroy people's memory.
C. There are some causes of memory problems. D. We should have healthy lifestyles.
2. The underlined word “mental“ means ______________ in Chinese.
A. 脑力的 B. 适当的 C. 丰富的 D. 剧烈的
3. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A. Loss of sleep can lead to poor memory.
B. Playing video games is bad for our memory.
C. In fact, poor memory is caused by stress.
D. Memory loss can be avoided by eating healthily.
4. What's the best title for the passage
A. Results of a study on memory B. Why memory is important to us
C. How to lead a healthy lifestyle D. Ways to improve memory
【答案】1. C 2. A 3. A 4. D
【解析】本文是说明文,短文就如何提高记忆力给出了几点建议。
1. 主旨大意题。根据“Yet even without these terrible diseases, some people, like busy entrepreneurs, can risk losing stored memories and the ability to form and keep new ones. Besides, our unhealthy lifestyles, for example, little sleep, can hurt memory function”,可知本段解释导致记忆问题的原因,故选C。
2. 词句猜测题。根据下文“exercise helps improve your memory skills”,可知说的是脑力锻炼,故选A。
3. 推理判断题。根据“Some diseases destroy the brain’s memory function…Besides, our unhealthy lifestyles, for example, little sleep, can hurt memory function”,可知睡眠不足会导致记忆力下降;“Loss of sleep can lead to poor memory”说法正确,故选A。

Who would win in a competition to memorize numbers, a chimp(黑猩猩) or a teenager The teenager Think again. Scientists have proved that chimps perform better than human beings when it comes to this kind of problem. We may have to rethink what we believe about human memory.
Memory is our ability to learn something, save it and recall it when needed. Our memories are important to our sense of self, our personalities, and our ability to understand the world.
Scientists say that there are different types of memory. There is short-term memory and long-term memory. Your short-term memory saves information for a few seconds or a few minutes. For example, the time it takes to compare the prices of a few items in a store. Long-term memory involves the information you try hard to keep, because it’s meaningful to you (an example is data about family and friends. ) And then there is visual memory and sound memory. But these are not hard and fast: scientists argue a lot about the nature of memory.
Scientists have also found that people memorize things in different ways. Some memorize better with the help of pictures. Others are helped more by sounds. One thing’s for sure. If you can combine different kinds of memory together, you will remember a lot! So why not try pictures with English words At the same time listen to recordings of the same group of words. It may help when it comes to memorizing it.
Imagination and association can be useful too. By imagination scientists mean picturing a word in your mind. Association means relating the word to something you already know.

Memory collects and stores information that we need for different tasks. It also plays an important role in helping us recognize (识别) and remember important people and special things.
Some diseases destroy the brain’s memory function (功能). Yet even without these terrible diseases, some people, like busy entrepreneurs (企业家), can risk losing stored memories and the ability to form and keep new ones. Besides, our unhealthy lifestyles, for example, little sleep, can hurt memory function. Luckily, science gives us hope with ways to improve our memory.
Use games and apps to train your brain.
A 2018 study found that a lot of video games can improve memory-related areas in the brain. If you aren’t a fan of video games, consider brain-training and memory apps to play with when you have a break. You can also try crossword, find-a-word and picture search apps. Board games (棋类游戏) also help.
