真题研练69 Task 1：阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。(2015安徽，C)As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information，are people remembering less? If you know your computer will save information，why store it in your own personal memory，your brain? Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.In a recent study，Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments.She and her research team wanted to know how the Internet is changing memory.In the first experiment，they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer.The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information.The second group understood that the computer would not save it.Later，the second group remembered the information better.People in the first group knew they could find the information again，so they did not try to remember it.In another experiment，the researchers gave people facts to remember，and told them where to find the information on the computer.The information was in a specific computer folder (文件夹)Surprisingly，people later remembered the folder location (位置) better than the facts.When people use the Internet，they do not remember the information.Rather，they remember how to find it.This is called “transactive memory (交互记忆)”According to Sparrow，we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet.Instead，computer users are developing stronger transactive memories；that is，people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date.This doesnt mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent，but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。人们越来越依赖网络了，网络中储存着大量的信息，人们还需要用大脑去记忆吗？是不是我们的大脑越来越不记事情了？科学家对此进行了两个实验，来验证我们的大脑记忆事情的变化。1The passage begins with two questions to_.Aintroduce the main topicBshow the authors attitudeCdescribe how to use the InternetDexplain how to store information答案A推理判断题。文章主要讨论网络是否引起了人们的大脑记忆事情的变化。作者首先运用两个问题来引出话题，因此A项最佳。文章开头的问题是导入话题的，因此可以排除其他选项。2What can we learn about the first experiment?AThe Sparrows team typed the information into a computer.BThe two groups remembered the information equally well.CThe first group did not try to remember the information.DThe second group did not understand the information.答案C细节理解题。由第二段中的“People in the first group knew they could find the information again，so they did not try to remember it.”可知，因为知道电脑会储存信息，所以第一组实验者就没有去记忆这些信息。故选C。A项错在不是Sparrow的团队，而是参加实验的人把信息输入电脑，可排除；B项与第二段倒数第二句“.the second group remembered the information better.”矛盾，可排除；文章中未提及D项，可排除。3In transactive memory，people_.Akeep the information in mindBchange the quantity of information Corganize information like a computerDremember how to find the information答案D细节理解题。由第三段中的“When people use the Internet，they do not remember the information.Rather，they remember how to find it.”可知，在这样的情况下，人们更容易记住怎样找到信息，而不是信息的内容，故选D项。4What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrows research? AWe are using memory differently.BWe are becoming more intelligent.CWe have poorer memories than before.DWe need a better way to access information.答案A推理判断题。由文章最后一段中的最后一句“This doesnt mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent，but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing”(这并不意味着我们变得更聪明或更不聪明了，但毫无疑问我们利用记忆的方式在改变)可排除B、C两项，确定A项正确。文章中未提及D项“我们需要一种更好的方式来获取信息”。Task 2：词汇积累1be/become/get dependent on 变得依赖于2specific n特性；细节adj.特殊的；特定的special adj.特别的specially adv.特别地；专门地3store vt.储存4personal adj.个人的personally adv.亲自地5experiment n实验6surprisingly adv.惊人地，出乎意料地7as a result of 由于的结果as a result 因此8quantities of 许多；大量的a large/huge quantity of 大量的9access v/n.使用，存取10intelligent adj.聪明的；智能的Task 3：语法填空According to Sparrow，we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result _1_ the Internet.Instead，computer users are developing _2_ (strong) transactive memories；that is，people are learning how to organize huge _3_ (quantity)of information so that they are able to access it _4_ a later date.This doesnt mean we are becoming either more _5_ less intelligent，but there is no doubt _6_ the way we use memory is changing.答案1.of2.stronger3.quantities4.at5.or 6thatTask 4：单句改错1Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing that we remember and how.2She and her research team wanted to know the Internet is changing memory.3Surprised，people later remember the folder location better than the facts.4This doesnt mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent，but there is no doubt what the way we use memory is changing.答案1.thatwhat2.know后加how3.SurprisedSurprisingly4.whatthatTask 5：攻克长难句(分析句子结构，尝试翻译成汉语)Instead，computer users are developing stronger transactive memories；that is，people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date.分析：本句由两个并列句组成。在第二个句子中，主句是people are learning；how to organize huge quantities of information是宾语从句；so that引导的句子是目的状语从句
