Jake
Meyers,
a
graduate
student
in
Northwestern
University,
has
won
the
Best
Sharable
Video
award
in
Planet
Forward's
national
Storyfest
2020
competition.
The
project
teaches,
celebrates
and
rewards
environmental
storytelling
by
students
from
across
the
county.
As
a
master’s
student,
Meyers
works
at
the
intersection
of
climate
adaptation
and
food
security.
During
the
summer
of
2019,
Meyers
worked
with
the
International
Livestock
Research
Institute
in
Nairobi,
Kenya,
to
investigate
climate
adaptation
solutions
to
food
insecurity
in
the
rapidly
urbanizing
nation.
Meyers?
video,
"Can
urban
farming
feed
the
future?",
shares
the
story
of
Francis
Wachira,
a
leading
advocate
for
urban
facing
in
Nairobi.
Millions
of
people
are
moving
from
rural
to
urban
areas
as
large-scale
farming,
coupled
with
climate
change,
forces
small-scale
farmers
to
abandon
their
livelihoods
and
pursue
economic
opportunity
in
urban
areas,
"Meyers
said.
As
food
security
concerns
grow
for
the
people
of
Nairobi,
farmers
like
Francis
are
transforming
urban
lots
into
highly
productive
green
spaces
to
raise
livestock
(
牲
畜
),
grow
vegetables
and
fight
climate
change.
"
Francis
has
an
incredible
urban
farming
system
in
Nairobi
that
features
over
600
head
of
livestock
and
150
species
of
plants,
"Meyers
said.
"
I
wanted
to
highlight
Francis
and
his
innovative
approach
to
urban
farming
through
storytelling
with
the
goal
of
inspiring
change."
"I
have
become
so
inspired
by
many
incredible
people
like
Francis
Wachira.
So
many
around
the
world
are
re-imagining
solutions
to
poverty
and
climate
change,
yet
their
stories
remain
untold.
I
hope
to
continue
using
storytelling
as
a
means
of
highlighting
different
perspectives
that
can
create
impact
and
advocate
for
transformational
change,
"Meyers
said.

【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章以Jake
Meyers的视频作品入手,介绍了城市农业的发展及益处。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“Meyers
worked
with
the
International
Livestock
Research
Institute
in
Nairobi,
Kenya(Meyers在肯尼亚Nairobi的国际牲畜研究所工作)”可知Nairobi在行政区规划上属于肯尼亚;又根据第三段“Meyers
video,
…shares
the
story
of
Francis
Wachira,
a
leading
advocate
for
urban
facing
in
Nairobi.(Meyers的视频,分享了Francis
Wachira的故事,他是Nairobi城市面貌的主要倡导者。)”可知
Nairobi是一个urban
area(城市地区)。所以可推断Meyers的视频拍摄地点是在肯尼亚的一个城市地区。故选B项。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。第四段开头指出“Millions
of
people
are
moving
from
rural
to
urban
areas(数以百万计的人正从农村迁往城市)”这一现象,as引导原因状语从句来解释出现该现象的原因,即:大规模的农业和气候变化迫使小规模的农民“abandon
their
livelihoods”并且“pursue
economic
opportunity
in
urban
areas(在城市地区寻求经济机会)”,由此可猜测,小规模的农民去城市寻求机会之前必然要放弃并离开他们自己原来的小规模农田。故选C项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。Meyers所拍视频的片名是
“Can
urban
farming
feed
the
future?(城市农业能养活未来吗?)”
根据文章倒数第二段中“I
wanted
to
highlight
Francis
and
his
innovative
approach
to
urban
farming
through
storytelling
with
the
goal
of
inspiring
change.(我想通过讲故事的方式来突出Francis和他在城市农业方面的创新方法,目标是激励更多的改变。)”可推断视频对都市农业的效益是非常肯定的。故选B项。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中‘’farmers
like
Francis
are
transforming
urban
lots
into
highly
productive
green
spaces
(像Francis这样的农民正在把城市地块改造成高产的绿色空间)可知Francis
引进了改革的方法;根据最后一段
“So
many
around
the
world
are
re-imagining
solutions
to
poverty
and
climate
change(世界各地的许多人都在重新构想如何解决贫困和气候变化问题)”可知Francis引进了很多解决问题的新主意,故选A项。
C
Every
two
weeks,
the
time
period
after
which
many
people
collect
a
paycheck,
a
language
dies.
So
concerning
is
the
potential
for
language
loss
that
the
National
Science
Foundation
this
year
launched
the
Documenting
Endangered
Languages
program
to
advance
knowledge
related
to
endangered
human
languages.
The
launch
of
the
program
is
even
more
urgent
given
the
fact
that
about
half
of
all
current
languages
being
used
in
the
world
have
been
classified
at
varying
degrees
of
endangerment.
At
the
University
of
Arizona,
which
is
an
important
site
for
language
preservation,
a
number
of
researchers
are
involved
in
activities
meant
to
document
endangered
and
lost
languages.
Others
are
working
to
help
preserve
languages
classified
as
"moribund",
meaning
that
no
children
are
learning
their
native
languages
as
their
first
languages
in
their
own
homes.
A
number
of
UA
programs—some
of
them
decades
old—are
dedicated
to
language
preservation.
Most
recently,
Christian
Ruvalcaba,
a
graduate
student,
launched
"The
Language
Capital
Project
"and
is
creating
maps
for
corresponding
website
to
help
non-national
language
speakers
to
find
and
connect
with
one
another.
"Languages
allow
people
to
create
an
identity
for
themselves
and
as
community
members",
said
Elizabeth
Kickham,
a
visiting
professor
in
the
UA
Department
of
Linguistics.
"Language
is
so
closely
tied
to
culture:
it
not
only
reflects
cultural
practices,
it
is
also
influenced
by
them.
Language
and
culture
influence
each
other,
so
it’s
difficult
to
separate
them.
You
can,
but
you
lose
something
when
you
do."
"One
of
the
advantages
of
studying
at
the
University
of
Arizona
is
the
wealth
of
linguistic
diversity
to
be
found
among
the
student
population,”
said
Kickham,
who
involved
her
students
in
language
preservation
training
this
semester.
"Exposure
to
diverse
populations,
including
languages,
enables
a
richer
understanding
of
the
human
experience,"
Kickham
said.
"
Languages
are
beautiful.
When
people
hear
someone
speaking
a
language
they
needn’t
feel
that
the
person
doesn’t
know
how
to
speak
English
but
rather
that
person
has
a
wealth
of
resources."

Eyes
are
like
a
window
into
our
thought
processes.
Recent
studies
have
found
that
the
eyes
not
only
reflect
what
is
happening
in
the
brain
but
may
also
influence
how
we
remember
things.
Researchers
tracked
volunteers'
eye
movements
while
they
said
a
list
of
40
numbers.
They
found
that
the
direction
and
size
of
the
participants’
eye
movements
accurately
predicted
whether
the
number
they
were
about
to
say
was
bigger
or
smaller
than
the
previous
one
and
by
how
much.
Each
volunteers’
gaze
shifted
up
and
to
the
right
just
before
they
said
a
bigger
number,
and
down
and
to
the
left
before
a
smaller
one.
The
bigger
the
shift
from
one
side
to
the
other,
the
bigger
the
difference
between
the
numbers.
This
suggests
that
we
somehow
link
abstract
number
representations
in
the
brain
with
movement
in
space.
But
the
study
does
not
tell
us
which
come
first
:
whether
thinking
of
a
particular
number
causes
changes
in
eye
position,
or
whether
the
eye
position
influences
our
mental-activity.
Researchers
in
Sweden
published
evidence
that
it's
the
latter
that
may
be
at
work
:
eye
movements
may
actually
facilitate
memory
retrieval.
They
asked
each
one
of
the
24
volunteers
to
carefully
examine
a
series
of
objects
displayed
to
them
in
one
corner
of
a
computer
screen.
The
participants
were
then
told
to
listen
to
a
series
of
statements
about
some
of
the
objects
they
had
seen,
such
as
"The
car
was
facing
to
the
left"
and
asked
to
indicate
as
quickly
as
possible
if
each
was
true
or
false.
Some
participants
were
allowed
to
let
their
eyes
move
about
freely;
others
were
asked
to
fix
their
gaze
on
a
cross
at
the
centre
of
the
screen,
or
the
corner
where
the
object
had
appeared,
for
example.
The
researchers
found
that
those
who
were
allowed
to
move
their
eyes
freely
during
recall
performed
significantly
better
than
those
who
fixed
on
the
cross.
Interestingly,
though,
participants
who
were
told
to
fix
their
gaze
in
the
corner
of
the
screen
in
which
objects
had
appeared
earlier
performed
better
than
those
told
to
fix
their
gaze
in
another
corner.
This
suggests
that
the
more
closely
the
participants
eye
movements
during
information
encoding
corresponded
with
those
that
occurred
during
retrieval
of
the
information,
the
better
they
were
at
remembering
the
objects.
12.
If
the
previous
number
was
50,
which
is
the
most
probable
number
when
a
participant
looked
up
and
right?

a
smaller
one(每个志愿者在说出一个更大的数字之前的目光会向上和向右移动,在说出一个更小的数字之前的目光会向下和向左移动)”可知,如果之前的数字是50,当一个参与者向上和向右看时,最可能说出的数字是90。故选A。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“This
suggests
that
we
somehow
link
abstract
number
representations
in
the
brain
with
movement
in
space.
But
the
study
does
not
tell
us
which
come
first
:
whether
thinking
of
a
particular
number
causes
changes
in
eye
position,
or
whether
the
eye
position
influences
our
mental-activity.
Researchers
in
Sweden
published
evidence
that
it's
the
latter
that
may
be
at
work
:
eye
movements
may
actually
facilitate
memory
retrieval.(这表明,我们以某种方式将大脑中的抽象数字表征与空间运动联系起来。但是这项研究并没有告诉我们哪个先发生:是考虑特定的数字导致眼睛位置的变化,还是眼睛位置影响我们的心理活动。瑞典的研究人员公布的证据表明,后者可能起作用:眼球运动实际上可能有助于记忆提取)”可知,第三段主要讲了眼睛运动和心理活动之间的关系。故选D。
【14题详解】
词义猜测题。根据画线词上文“This
suggests
that
the
more
closely
the
participants
eye
movements
during
information
encoding
corresponded
with”以及后文“that
occurred
during
retrieval
of
the
information,
the
better
they
were
at
remembering
the
objects.”可知,这表明,在信息编码过程中,参加实验者信息检索时眼球的移动方式与信息录入时眼球的移动方式越一致,他们就越能更好地记住物体。即those指的是“眼球运动”。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The
researchers
found
that
those
who
were
allowed
to
move
their
eyes
freely
during
recall
performed
significant
better
than
those
who
fixed
on
the
cross.
Interestingly,
though,
participants
who
were
told
to
fix
their
gaze
in
the
corner
of
the
screen
in
which
objects
had
appeared
earlier
performed
better
than
those
told
to
fix
their
gaze
in
another
corner.
This
suggests
that
the
more
closely
the
participants
eye
movements
during
information
encoding
corresponded
with
those
that
occurred
during
retrieval
of
the
information,
the
better
they
were
at
remembering
the
objects.(研究人员发现,那些在回忆过程中被允许自由移动眼睛的人比那些盯着十字架的人表现得更好。有趣的是,那些被告知将视线集中在屏幕的某个角落的参与者比那些被告知将视线集中在屏幕的另一个角落的参与者表现得更好。这表明,在信息编码过程中,参与者信息检索时的眼球运动与提取信息时的眼球运动越一致,他们就越能更好地记住物体)”
最后一段叙述硏究的结果:不同形式的眼球移动产生不同的记忆效果,根据硏究的结果可推断瑞典研究人员进行这项研究是为了测试眼球运动对记忆的影响。故选B。

had
on
me.

feel
thankful
that
I
was
born
the
way
I
was.
I
have
learned
to
respect
disabled
people
for
their
daily
struggles,
and
meeting
them
has
also
made
me
learn
to
love
every
minute
of
life.
They
taught
me
that
no
one
can
judge
what
is
"normal".
A.
They
are
all
people
just
like
us.
B.
I
went
with
a
friend
and
when
I
got
there,
I
was
astonished.

I
did
for
the
mentally
disabled
was

were
able
to
perform
so
well.
E.
Working
with
the
mentally
disabled
can
be
a
rewarding
experience.
F.
This
was
the
first
time
I
found
I
truly
had
a
place
in
a
stranger's
life.

考查非谓语动词。句意:在她一岁生日前大约两个月,随着这种流行病开始传播,我们搬到了约旦的安曼,我妻子在那里找到了一份新工作。此处为with的复合结构“with+宾语+宾补”,且begin与pandemic构成主动关系,应用现在分词。故填beginning。
【37题详解】
考查介词。句意:就像其他工薪家庭一样,在疫情发现前,保持家庭生活和事业之间的良好平衡是一个巨大的挑战——尤其是在我们孩子的成长过程中,建立常规生活是如此重要的时候,工作意味着要离开彼此几天,有时甚至是几周时。结合句意表示“在……之间”短语为between…and…。故填between。
【38题详解】
考查副词。句意:就像其他工薪家庭一样,在疫情发现前,保持家庭生活和事业之间的良好平衡是一个巨大的挑战——尤其是在我们孩子的成长过程中,建立常规生活是如此重要的时候,工作意味着要离开彼此几天,有时甚至是几周时。修饰后文整个句子when
work
meant
being
away
from
each
other
for
days,
sometimes
weeks应用副词especially,作状语。故填especially。
【39题详解】
考查名词。句意:就像其他工薪家庭一样,在疫情发现前,保持家庭生活和事业之间的良好平衡是一个巨大的挑战——尤其是在我们孩子的成长过程中,建立常规生活是如此重要的时候,工作意味着要离开彼此几天,有时甚至是几周时。根据上文名词所有格child's可知应填名词development,且表抽象概念,不可数。故填development。
【40题详解】
考查形容词最高级。句意:但今年3月,情况发生了变化,为应对这一流行病,约旦进入了世界上最严格的封锁之一。此处为“one
of+最高级+名词复数”结构,表示“最严格”应用strictest。故填strictest。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:从那以后,我很高兴能经常出现在我女儿的生活中,成为在封锁时,日常生活中非凡时刻的一部分,所有这些都将塑造她最初的记忆。此处为句型“it
be
a
joy+for
sb.
to
do
sth.”,it作形式主语,不定式为真正主语。故填to
be。
【42题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:从那以后,我很高兴能经常出现在我女儿的生活中,成为在封锁时期,日常生活中非凡时刻的一部分,所有这些都将塑造她最初的记忆。此处为非限制性定语从句修饰先行词the
extraordinary
moments,且作介词of的宾语,指物,应用关系代词which,that不能作介词宾语。故填which。
【43题详解】
考查连词。句意:每天下午,我女儿都要做这样一件事,她似乎很喜欢,我希望她能记住的,那就是在我们公寓楼顶放风筝。根据前后文语境可知此处是两个定语从句修饰routine,是并列关系,应用连词and。故填and。
【44题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:每天下午,我女儿都要做这样一件事,她似乎很喜欢,我希望她能记住的,那就是在我们公寓楼顶放风筝。根据后文every
afternoon可知应用一般现在时,且主语为One
such
routine,故谓语动词应用第三人称单数。故填takes。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:每天下午都能看到在空中翱翔的几十个自制的风筝,在这个原本安静而又被封锁的空城上空,这是一个美丽的景象。分析句子结构可知see在句中应用非谓语动词形式作定语,与逻辑主语kites构成被动关系,故应用过去分词。故填seen。

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。
Greg
could
always
be
counted
on
to
have
an
interesting
party
every
year.
This
year
the
party
was
at
Greg's
house.
The
fun
part
was
a
scavenger
hunt(寻物游戏)
he
had
set
up
for
us.
Two
days
before
the
party,
Greg
went
around
and
asked
the
neighbors
if
they
would
help
out.
They
were
almost
all
willing.
At
the
party
he
divided
us
into
groups
of
four.
We
all
had
the
same
list
of
things
to
collect
and
an
hour's
time
to
do
it.
The
group
that
found
the
most
things
on
the
list
would
be
the
winners.
So
as
soon
as
the
hunt
began,
my
group
set
out
at
once,
in
the
hope
of
winning
the
game.
Our
first
stop
was
house
number
38.
A
Mrs.
Trollis
answered
the
bell
quickly.
She
was
glad
to
help.
She
had
three
of
the
items
needed:
a
nail,
a
photograph
of
a
baby,
and
a
shoe
box.
The
next
stop
was
Mr.
Gray's
house.
He
was
an
older
man
who
invited
us
in.
He
told
us
all
about
a
scavenger
hunt
he
went
on
when
he
was
a
boy.
We
were
interested
but
also
worried
that
we
would
run
out
of
time
listening
to
his
stories.
When
he
realized
we
didn't
have
all
night,
Mr.
Gray
hurried
off
to
find
us
a
few
things
we
needed.
"
I
hope
you
will
be
the
winners,
"he
said.
Then
we
rushed
off
to
another
house.
A
young
lady,
Ms.
Crane,
came
to
the
door.
She
looked
busy
but
she
said
she
could
help
out.
We
asked
for
a
baking
soda
box.
Ms.
Crane
emptied
some
baking
soda
into
a
bottle
and
handed
us
the
box.
We
got
a
few
more
items
in
other
houses
and
by
this
time
we
were
missing
only
a
Chinese
newspaper.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】We
soon
found,
however,
that
finding
a
Chinese
newspaper
was
a
great
challenge
because
none
of
the
neighbors
had
one.
With
just
fifteen
minutes
to
go
we
were
getting
worried.
Suddenly,
I
had
an
idea.
“Why
not
go
to
the
street?”
I
suggested,
“Maybe
we
can
find
a
Chinese
there
who
carries
a
Chinese
newspaper.”
Realizing
it
might
be
our
only
chance,
we
immediately
rushed
to
a
street
nearby,
where
we
did
find
a
Chinese
woman.
It
was
so
lucky
that
she
happened
to
have
a
Chinese
newspaper
in
her
bag.
Smiling,
she
handed
us
the
newspaper
after
we
explained
the
situation
her.
Finally,
we
got
everything
on
the
list.
We
wasted
no
time
in
getting
back
to
Greg’s
with
the
things
we
collected.
It
turned
out
that
our
group
was
the
only
one
to
get
a
Chinese
newspaper.
After
all
our
things
were
checked,
to
our
great
joy,
we
were
declared
the
winners.
Of
course,
the
other
groups
all
wondered
how
we
had
managed
to
get
such
a
newspaper.
“It’s
very
simple,”
I
laughed,
“Since
it’s
a
Chinese
newspaper,
you
should
ask
a
Chinese
for
it.”
【解析】
【分析】
本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了Greg每年都会举办有趣的聚会,有趣的部分是寻物游戏。今年作者他们被分为四个小组,每组都拿到同样的物品清单,并且有一个小时的时间去集齐这些东西。在名单上找到最多东西的小组将是赢家。作者他们最后只有一份中文报纸还没有找到,作者想到可以去街上找一个中国人要一份中文报纸,结果作者他们顺利拿到报纸获胜,成为了赢家。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“然而,我们很快发现,要找到一份中文报纸是一个很大的挑战,因为……”可知,第一段可描写作者他们如何想到找到中文报纸的办法的,作者想到去街上找中国人要一份中文报纸,结果他们找到了。
②由第二段首句内容“最后,我们得到了清单上的所有东西。”可知,第二段可描写作者他们找到了所有的物品,成为了赢家。
2.续写线索:找不到报纸而担心——突然有了主意——去街上——找到中国人——拿到中文报纸——回到Greg家——获胜

Jake
Meyers,
a
graduate
student
in
Northwestern
University,
has
won
the
Best
Sharable
Video
award
in
Planet
Forward's
national
Storyfest
2020
competition.
The
project
teaches,
celebrates
and
rewards
environmental
storytelling
by
students
from
across
the
county.
As
a
master’s
student,
Meyers
works
at
the
intersection
of
climate
adaptation
and
food
security.
During
the
summer
of
2019,
Meyers
worked
with
the
International
Livestock
Research
Institute
in
Nairobi,
Kenya,
to
investigate
climate
adaptation
solutions
to
food
insecurity
in
the
rapidly
urbanizing
nation.
Meyers?
video,
"Can
urban
farming
feed
the
future?",
shares
the
story
of
Francis
Wachira,
a
leading
advocate
for
urban
facing
in
Nairobi.
Millions
of
people
are
moving
from
rural
to
urban
areas
as
large-scale
farming,
coupled
with
climate
change,
forces
small-scale
farmers
to
abandon
their
livelihoods
and
pursue
economic
opportunity
in
urban
areas,
"Meyers
said.
As
food
security
concerns
grow
for
the
people
of
Nairobi,
farmers
like
Francis
are
transforming
urban
lots
into
highly
productive
green
spaces
to
raise
livestock
(
牲
畜
),
grow
vegetables
and
fight
climate
change.
"
Francis
has
an
incredible
urban
farming
system
in
Nairobi
that
features
over
600
head
of
livestock
and
150
species
of
plants,
"Meyers
said.
"
I
wanted
to
highlight
Francis
and
his
innovative
approach
to
urban
farming
through
storytelling
with
the
goal
of
inspiring
change."
"I
have
become
so
inspired
by
many
incredible
people
like
Francis
Wachira.
So
many
around
the
world
are
re-imagining
solutions
to
poverty
and
climate
change,
yet
their
stories
remain
untold.
I
hope
to
continue
using
storytelling
as
a
means
of
highlighting
different
perspectives
that
can
create
impact
and
advocate
for
transformational
change,
"Meyers
said.
4.

did
Meyers
make
his
video?
A.
In
different
countries.
B.
In
an
urban
area
in
Kenya.
C.
In
rural
areas
in
Kenya.
D.

5.
Which
of
the
following
can
replace
the
underlined
part
"abandon
their
livelihoods"?
A.
work
harder
B.
give
up
farming
C.
leave
their
farmland
D.
expand
their
farm
6.
What
can
be
inferred
about
Meyers
video?
A.
It
introduces
the
benefits
of
rural
farming.
B.
It
introduces
the
benefits
of
urban

C.
It's
mainly
about
the
difficulties
with
urban
farming.
D.
It's
mainly
about
the
potential
risks
in
rural

as?
A.
A
person
who
introduces
changes
and
new
ideas.
B.
A

who
shows
great
interest

Every
two
weeks,
the
time
period
after
which
many
people
collect
a
paycheck,
a
language
dies.
So
concerning
is
the
potential
for
language

that
the
National
Science
Foundation
this
year
launched
the
Documenting
Endangered
Languages
program
to
advance
knowledge
related
to
endangered
human
languages.
The
launch
of
the
program
is
even
more
urgent
given
the
fact
that
about
half
of
all
current
languages
being
used
in
the
world
have
been
classified
at
varying
degrees
of
endangerment.
At
the
University
of
Arizona,
which
is
an
important
site
for
language
preservation,
a
number
of
researchers
are
involved
in
activities
meant
to
document
endangered
and
lost
languages.
Others
are
working
to
help
preserve
languages
classified
as
"moribund",
meaning
that
no
children
are
learning
their
native
languages
as
their
first
languages
in
their
own
homes.
A
number
of
UA
programs—some
of
them
decades
old—are
dedicated
to
language
preservation.
Most
recently,
Christian
Ruvalcaba,
a
graduate
student,
launched
"The
Language
Capital
Project
"and
is
creating
maps
for
corresponding
website
to
help
non-national
language
speakers
to
find
and
connect
with
one
another.
"Languages
allow
people
to
create
an
identity
for
themselves
and
as
community
members",
said
Elizabeth
Kickham,
a
visiting
professor
in
the
UA
Department
of
Linguistics.
"Language
is
so
closely
tied
to
culture:
it
not
only
reflects
cultural
practices,
it
is
also
influenced
by
them.
Language
and
culture
influence
each
other,
so
it’s
difficult
to
separate
them.
You
can,
but
you
lose
something
when
you
do."
"One
of
the
advantages
of
studying
at
the
University
of
Arizona
is
the
wealth
of
linguistic
diversity
to
be
found
among
the
student
population,”
said
Kickham,
who
involved
her
students
in
language
preservation
training
this
semester.
"Exposure
to
diverse
populations,
including
languages,
enables
a
richer
understanding
of
the
human
experience,"
Kickham
said.
"
Languages
are
beautiful.
When
people
hear
someone
speaking
a
language
they
needn’t
feel
that
the
person
doesn’t
know
how
to
speak
English
but
rather
that
person
has
a
wealth
of
resources."

Eyes
are
like
a
window
into
our
thought
processes.
Recent
studies
have
found
that
the
eyes
not
only
reflect
what
is
happening
in
the
brain
but
may
also
influence
how
we
remember
things.
Researchers
tracked
volunteers'
eye
movements
while
they
said
a
list
of
40
numbers.
They
found
that
the
direction
and
size
of
the
participants’
eye
movements
accurately
predicted
whether
the
number
they
were
about
to
say
was
bigger
or
smaller
than
the
previous
one
and
by
how
much.
Each
volunteers’
gaze
shifted
up
and
to
the
right
just
before
they
said
a
bigger
number,
and
down
and
to
the
left
before
a
smaller
one.
The
bigger
the
shift
from
one
side
to
the
other,
the
bigger
the
difference
between
the
numbers.
This
suggests
that
we
somehow
link
abstract
number
representations
in
the
brain
with
movement
in
space.
But
the
study
does
not
tell
us
which
come
first
:
whether
thinking
of
a
particular
number
causes
changes
in
eye
position,
or
whether
the
eye
position
influences
our
mental-activity.
Researchers
in
Sweden
published
evidence
that
it's
the
latter
that
may
be
at
work
:
eye
movements
may
actually
facilitate
memory
retrieval.
They
asked
each
one
of
the
24
volunteers
to
carefully
examine
a
series
of
objects
displayed
to
them
in
one
corner
of
a
computer
screen.
The
participants
were
then
told
to
listen
to
a
series
of
statements
about
some
of
the
objects
they
had
seen,
such
as
"The
car
was
facing
to
the
left"
and
asked
to
indicate
as
quickly
as
possible
if
each
was
true
or
false.
Some
participants
were
allowed
to
let
their
eyes
move
about
freely;
others
were
asked
to
fix
their
gaze
on
a
cross
at
the
centre
of
the
screen,
or
the
corner
where
the
object
had
appeared,
for
example.
The
researchers
found
that
those
who
were
allowed
to
move
their
eyes
freely
during
recall
performed
significantly
better
than
those
who
fixed
on
the
cross.
Interestingly,
though,
participants
who
were
told
to
fix
their
gaze
in
the
corner
of
the
screen
in
which
objects
had
appeared
earlier
performed
better
than
those
told
to
fix
their
gaze
in
another
corner.
This
suggests
that
the
more
closely
the
participants
eye
movements
during
information
encoding
corresponded
with
those
that
occurred
during
retrieval
of
the
information,
the
better
they
were
at
remembering
the
objects.
12.
If
the
previous
number
was
50,
which
is
the
most
probable
number
when
a
participant
looked
up
and
right?
A
90
B.
50
C.
40
D.
30
13.
What
is
the
third
paragraph
mainly
about?
A.
The
way
that
eye
movements
take
place.
B.
The
way
that
memory
retrieval
takes
place.
C.
The
relationship
between
eye
movements
and
numbers.
D.
The
relationship,
between
eye
movements
and
mental
activity.
14.
What
does
the
underlined
word
"those"
in
the
last
paragraph
refer
to
?
A.
The
objects.
B.
The
corners.
C.
The
participants.
D.
The
eye
movements.
15.
Why
did
the
Swedish
researchers
conduct
the
study?
A.
To
find
ways
to
improve
a
person's
memory.
B.
To
test
the
influence
of
eye
movements
on
memory.
C.
To
test
the
effects
of
different
eye
movements.
D.
To
see
how
eye
movements
help
to
identify
objects.

This
year
I
spent
time
at
the
city’s
dances
for
the
mentally
disabled
to
fulfill
my
service
hours.
At
first
I
felt
troubled
with
the
idea
of
working
with
the
mentally
disabled
because
I
had
never
been
around
them
before.
___16___
They
arrived
in
groups
with
leaders
and
waited
for
the
doors
to
open
for
what
seemed
the
highlight
of
their
week.
Once
I
was
there
for
a
few
minutes,
I
didn't
feel
uncomfortable
at
all.
I
actually
became
interested
to
hear
what
they
had
to
say.
___17___
They
were
getting
along
well
and
it
was
clear
how
excited
they
were
to
see
familiar
faces
every
Friday
night.
I
realized
that
I
meant
something
to
them
when
I
skipped
a
Friday
and
they
asked
where
I
had
been.
I
was
missed!
___18___
Toward
the
end
of
my
experience
at
the
city's
dances
for
the
disabled,
I
knew
their
stories
and
faces
and
felt
things
that
I
had
never
experienced.
I
realized
what
I
had
thought
about
the
mentally
disabled
was
wrong.
___19___
They
love
life
and
take
it
for
everything
it's
worth.
___20___
Now
I
look
back
and
realize
what
an
effect
they
had
on
me.
I
feel
thankful
that
I
was
born
the
way
I
was.
I
have
learned
to
respect
disabled
people
for
their
daily
struggles,
and
meeting
them
has
also
made
me
learn
to
love
every
minute
of
life.
They
taught
me
that
no
one
can
judge
what
is
"normal".
A
They
are
all
people
just
like
us.
B.
I
went
with
a
friend
and
when
I
got
there,
I
was
astonished.
C.
What
I
did
for
the
mentally
disabled
was
truly
beneficial
to
them.
D.
And
by
the
end
of
the
program,
they
were
able
to
perform
so
well.
E.
Working
with
the
mentally
disabled
can
be
a
rewarding
experience.
F.
This
was
the
first
time
I
found
I
truly
had
a
place
in
a
stranger's
life.
G.
As
the
weeks
passed,
I
found
myself
interested
to
see
how
they
made
progress.

Greg
could
always
be
counted
on
to
have
an
interesting
party
every
year.
This
year
the
party
was
at
Greg's
house.
The
fun
part
was
a
scavenger
hunt(寻物游戏)
he
had
set
up
for
us.
Two
days
before
the
party,
Greg
went
around
and
asked
the
neighbors
if
they
would
help
out.
They
were
almost
all
willing.
At
the
party
he
divided
us
into
groups
of
four.
We
all
had
the
same
list
of
things
to
collect
and
an
hour's
time
to
do
it.
The
group
that
found
the
most
things
on
the
list
would
be
the
winners.
So
as
soon
as
the
hunt
began,
my
group
set
out
at
once,
in
the
hope
of
winning
the
game.
Our
first
stop
was
house
number
38.
A
Mrs.
Trollis
answered
the
bell
quickly.
She
was
glad
to
help.
She
had
three
of
the
items
needed:
a
nail,
a
photograph
of
a
baby,
and
a
shoe
box.
The
next
stop
was
Mr.
Gray's
house.
He
was
an
older
man
who
invited
us
in.
He
told
us
all
about
a
scavenger
hunt
he
went
on
when
he
was
a
boy.
We
were
interested
but
also
worried
that
we
would
run
out
of
time
listening
to
his
stories.
When
he
realized
we
didn't
have
all
night,
Mr.
Gray
hurried
off
to
find
us
a
few
things
we
needed.
"
I
hope
you
will
be
the
winners,
"he
said.
Then
we
rushed
off
to
another
house.
A
young
lady,
Ms.
Crane,
came
to
the
door.
She
looked
busy
but
she
said
she
could
help
out.
We
asked
for
a
baking
soda
box.
Ms.
Crane
emptied
some
baking
soda
into
a
bottle
and
handed
us
the
box.
We
got
a
few
more
items
in
other
houses
and
by
this
time
we
were
missing
only
a
Chinese
newspaper.
