Ever wonder why you can go over a book again and again and still be lost when tested on what you read It may be because you haven't practiced remembering.
Remembering is a useful way to help us leamn. Some of us remember best by listening; others by re-reading; and others learn best by using pictures and diagrams(图表). Schools try many of these differeni ways to help students “download(下载)”new information.
But a recent study from Purdue University, US, says that successful(成功的) learning means being able to recall (回想起)information at any moment.
"Our view is that leaming is not about studying or getting knowledge(知识)‘in memory’,” said Jeffrey Karpicke, the lead researcher. "Leaming is about retrieving(寻回，检索). So it is important to make retrieval practice an important part of the learning process(过程).
The research studied two groups of students. Both groups leamed something from a text. One group made diagrams about the text. This method(方法) is called concept mapping. The other group put the text away after learning it and tried recalling the concepts from memory.
Then, both groups were tested(被测试) on the information they had learned. Both groups scored well at recalling the leared information. However, when they were asked to return one week later, the group who made diagrams scored better than the group who did not use concept mapping. So by drawing concept maps, we are able to recall information far better, which will help us to study.
Our mind(头脑), just like our body, has to practice activities to become good at them.
( )11.Which of the following ways of remembering isNOT mentioned (提及) in Paragraph 2
Listening. B. Re-reading. C.Speaking. D. Using pictures and diagrams
( )12. According to Jeffrey Karpicke, learning is about
studying knowledge from memory B. getting and recalling knowledge
C. practicing drawing photos and maps D. getting knowledge from memory
( )13. What does the underlined part “concept mapping in Paragraph 5 mean in Chinese
A.心电图 B.概念图 C.规划图 D.线路图
( )14.When both groups were tested on the information after one week, _______.
they both scored well
B.neither(两者都不) of the groups scored well
C. the group that didn't use concept mapping scored better
D. the group using concept mapping scored better
( )15.What can we tell from the story '
A.Our minds need to practice to remember things.
B. It’s impossible to remember everything we've learned.
C.How to get knowledge by concept mapping.
D. Concept mapping is the only way to learn.
四、任务型阅读(10分)
Do you want to save the environment(环境) You probably can't fix everything on your own, but by taking small steps (措施) and keeping the environment in mind every day, you can make a difference.
1.Think green
Change yourself to think about the environment as you live your life. If you turn off lights when you leave the room and turn off your TV when you are not watching it, you will save energy. If you take shorter showers (淋浴), you will save water.
2. Shop green
Shopping is fun, but buving things you don't need is bad for the earth. Before you buy something, ask yourself if you really need it. Keep yourself away from buying products with unnecessary(不必要的) packages (包装), and whenever possible, buy things that were locally made lnstead of those from far away.
3. Dress green
Wear green trousers and T-shirts if you want. But what really matters(要紧) isn't the color. It's how the clothes were made. If you want to help the environment, you can also buy second-hand clothes.When you shop, choose clothes made of environmentally friendly(环保的) materials, like organic (有机的) cotton. People don't use pesticides (杀虫剂) to grow organic cotton.
4. Study green
What’s better than learning about the environment Save it while you leam. It can be as simple as using both sides of a piece of paper, or reusing(再次使用) an old textbook instead of buying a new one. If you want to do more, be a member of an environment group at your school.
Title: Small 1 ,Big Differences
