You’ll be informed by email if you are being deregistered as a result of missing sessions. If you believe you have received the email in error, email the PASS office at passoffice@umbs. edu..

(2024·北京朝阳·一模)You’ve raced to the supermarket only to realise you’ve left the shopping list home. You need to memorise which groceries to pick up before you forget. Thankfully, there’s a memory aid that’s perfect for the job: the peg-word method.
What is the peg-word method
It employs a set of pre-determined words, regarded as peg words, for the to-be-remembered information. Peg words act as a structure to help you remember particular items. Essentially, you’re hanging information you need to recall on these pegs, which allows it to be recalled quickly and easily.
Initially, to use this method, you will have to remember the peg words as well as the numbers:
one=bun two= shoe three=tree four= door five= hive six= sticks seven= heaven eight= gate nine =vine ten= hen
The next step is to create associations between the information you need to remember and the item linked with the corresponding number. If the first item, for instance, is milk, then you need to visualise the milk and a bun(小圆面包) together. The more unusual you can make your image, the more likely you are to remember it. In this case, you could imagine a bun drinking a glass of milk.
Why is it useful
As the case shows, it is most useful when it comes to remembering lists and you can recall the listed items easily in order. Another way to use this memory aid is to memorise important numbers, like phone numbers or dates. For instance, you need to remember that William Shakespeare was born in the year 1564. First, change that number to bun-hive-sticks-door. Then imagine a story to help you remember the series:
William Shakespeare put a bun in a beehive to coat it in honey, but he didn’t like how sticky it became so he threw it at a door.
The peg-word method has been wildly recognized as a helpful memory aid. For more information, please visit https://jojomemory.com/.
10.How can we apply the peg-word method to recall an item
A.List out different meanings of the item.
B.Visualise the item and memorize its image.
C.Choose the item’s peg word and remember it.
D.Create a visual link between the item and its peg word.
11.What is the best way to remember the number 347 with the peg words in the table
A.A hen drinks from a bottle of wine.
B.A load of eggs grow like fruit on a tree.
C.A tree grows through the door to heaven.
D.An apple shoots out of a bun and hits the door.
12.What is the purpose of this passage
A.To introduce a helpful memory tool.
B.To advertise a brain training program.
C.To highlight the importance of peg words.
D.To analyze the necessity of training memory.
【答案】10.D 11.C 12.A
【导语】本文为一篇应用文,介绍了一种辅助帮助记忆的工具——挂钩词法。
10.细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Essentially, you’re hanging information you need to recall on these pegs, which allows it to be recalled quickly and easily.(从本质上讲,你把需要回忆的信息挂在这些挂钩上,这样就可以快速、轻松地回忆起来)”及表格下一段“The next step is to create associations between the information you need to remember and the item linked with the corresponding number. If the first item, for instance, is milk, then you need to visualise the milk and a bun together.(下一步是在你需要记住的信息和与相应数字相关联的项目之间建立联系。例如,如果第一件东西是牛奶,那么你需要想象牛奶和面包在一起)”可知,我们需要在事物和它的挂钩词之间创建一个想象链接,即,看到这些词就能想到对应的事物来帮助我们记住事物。故选D。
11.推理判断题。347对应数字three,four,seven,观察表格可知,three=tree(树木),four=door(门),seven=heaven(天堂),将“树木,门,天堂”联系起来,得到C选项“从通往天堂的门里长出一棵树”。故选C。
12.推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Thankfully, there’s a memory aid that’s perfect for the job: the peg-word method.(值得庆幸的是,有一种记忆辅助工具非常适合这项工作:挂钩词法)”及最后一段“The peg-word method
has been wildly recognized as a helpful memory aid. For more information, please visit https://jojomemory.com/.(挂钩词法被广泛认为是一种有助于记忆的方法。欲了解更多信息,请访问https://jojomemory.com/)”可推知,本文是为了向大家介绍一种有用的记忆工具。故选A。

(2023·北京门头沟·一模)Tours come in many creative forms, such as guided walking tours, self-guided walking tours, coastal walks and bush walks.
Guided Walking Tours
Guided walking tours are an informative and fun way to deeply understand the area about a city’s history and the people there. You can take this kind of tour anytime and anywhere. Guided walking tours come with a guide with the knowledge and history of the area and they can help you with a lot of the history that happened in the area. Guided walking tours are better at showing sites in-depth.
Self-Guided Walking Tours
Self-guided tours are good if you wish to do things at your own pace. With self-guided tours, you usually have a brochure on the area that you follow and it will tell you about local people’s favorite landmarks. Self-guided tours are suitable for individuals or close friends. You can take them in any season you like.
Coastal Walking Tours
Coastal walks are ideal for those who enjoy breathtaking views. Coastal walks will often take you inland for part of your journey, only to rejoin the coastline at some other spectacular views mother nature has provided. Coastal walks are for all year round. I have done some great walks in winter and seen mother nature at her best, and the best
part about doing tours during winter is that there are not very many people that will almost have the tour to themselves.
Bush Walking Tours
Bush walks, according to research, can help reduce depression and raise self-esteem. Bush walks can be a family activity with your dog throughout the year. Some bush walks may take more than one day. Whenever you want to take a bush walk, you should keep in mind that all bush walks should be researched thoroughly as you may need special equipment like waterproof trousers. At the very least you should let your family or friends know where you are going. This is useful if you get lost.

(2024·北京朝阳·一模)You’ve raced to the supermarket only to realise you’ve left the shopping list home. You need to memorise which groceries to pick up before you forget. Thankfully, there’s a memory aid that’s perfect for the job: the peg-word method.
What is the peg-word method
It employs a set of pre-determined words, regarded as peg words, for the to-be-remembered information. Peg
words act as a structure to help you remember particular items. Essentially, you’re hanging information you need to recall on these pegs, which allows it to be recalled quickly and easily.
Initially, to use this method, you will have to remember the peg words as well as the numbers:
one=bun two= shoe three=tree four= door five= hive six= sticks seven= heaven eight= gate nine =vine ten= hen
The next step is to create associations between the information you need to remember and the item linked with the corresponding number. If the first item, for instance, is milk, then you need to visualise the milk and a bun(小圆面包) together. The more unusual you can make your image, the more likely you are to remember it. In this case, you could imagine a bun drinking a glass of milk.
Why is it useful
As the case shows, it is most useful when it comes to remembering lists and you can recall the listed items easily in order. Another way to use this memory aid is to memorise important numbers, like phone numbers or dates. For instance, you need to remember that William Shakespeare was born in the year 1564. First, change that number to bun-hive-sticks-door. Then imagine a story to help you remember the series:
William Shakespeare put a bun in a beehive to coat it in honey, but he didn’t like how sticky it became so he threw it at a door.
The peg-word method has been wildly recognized as a helpful memory aid. For more information, please visit https://jojomemory.com/.
10.How can we apply the peg-word method to recall an item
A.List out different meanings of the item.
B.Visualise the item and memorize its image.
C.Choose the item’s peg word and remember it.
D.Create a visual link between the item and its peg word.
11.What is the best way to remember the number 347 with the peg words in the table
A.A hen drinks from a bottle of wine.
B.A load of eggs grow like fruit on a tree.
C.A tree grows through the door to heaven.
D.An apple shoots out of a bun and hits the door.
12.What is the purpose of this passage
A.To introduce a helpful memory tool.
B.To advertise a brain training program.
C.To highlight the importance of peg words.
D.To analyze the necessity of training memory.

(2023·北京门头沟·一模)Tours come in many creative forms, such as guided walking tours, self-guided walking tours, coastal walks and bush walks.
Guided Walking Tours
Guided walking tours are an informative and fun way to deeply understand the area about a city’s history and the people there. You can take this kind of tour anytime and anywhere. Guided walking tours come with a guide with the knowledge and history of the area and they can help you with a lot of the history that happened in the area. Guided walking tours are better at showing sites in-depth.
Self-Guided Walking Tours
Self-guided tours are good if you wish to do things at your own pace. With self-guided tours, you usually have a brochure on the area that you follow and it will tell you about local people’s favorite landmarks. Self-guided tours are suitable for individuals or close friends. You can take them in any season you like.
Coastal Walking Tours
Coastal walks are ideal for those who enjoy breathtaking views. Coastal walks will often take you inland for part of your journey, only to rejoin the coastline at some other spectacular views mother nature has provided. Coastal walks are for all year round. I have done some great walks in winter and seen mother nature at her best, and the best part about doing tours during winter is that there are not very many people that will almost have the tour to themselves.
Bush Walking Tours
Bush walks, according to research, can help reduce depression and raise self-esteem. Bush walks can be a family activity with your dog throughout the year. Some bush walks may take more than one day. Whenever you want to take a bush walk, you should keep in mind that all bush walks should be researched thoroughly as you may need special equipment like waterproof trousers. At the very least you should let your family or friends know where you are going. This is useful if you get lost.
Hope you can find the most suitable tour for yourself.
