42、a studentDTeddys parents death made his study fall behind othersE17、All in the memoryMany people complain that their memory is bad, especially as they get older. Phone numbers, names, facts we studied only a few days ago life would be so much easier if we could remember them all effortlessly. So how

43、 can we improve our memory?Many people think that repeating things is the best way to remember them. While this undoubtedly helps short-term memory (remembering a telephone number for a few seconds, for example), psychologists (心理学家) doubt whether it ca help you to remember things for very long. The

44、 British psychologist Ec Stanford seemed to prove this point when he tested himself on five prayers (祈祷文) that he had read aloud every morning for over 25 years. He found that he could remember no more than three words of some of them! More helpful, especially for remembering numbers, is grouping th

45、e information. The following numbers would be impossible for most of us to remember: 1492178919931848. But look at them in chunks, and it becomes much easier: 1492 1789 1993 1848.So what about “memory training”? Weve all heard about people who can memorize packs of cards by hearthow is this done and

46、 can anyone learn how to do it? According to experts, there are many ways of training your memory. Many of them involve forming a mental picture of the things to be memorized. One method, which may be useful in learning foreign languages, is to create a picture in your mind connected to a word you w

47、ant to remember.Another method is to invent a story that includes all the things you want to remember. In experiments, people were asked to remember up to 120 words using this skill; when tested afterwards, on average, they were able to recall 90% of them!However, not all of us are interested in lea

48、rning long lists of names and numbers just for fun.For those studying large number of information, psychologists suggest that the best way to form meaningful connections is to ask yourself lots of questions as you go along. So, for example, if you were reading about a particular disease (疾病), you wo

49、uld ask yourself questions like: “Do people get it from water?”, “What parts of the body does it influence?” and so on. This is said to be far more effective than time spent “passively” reading and re-reading notes.1Which of the following is true about repeating things according to the passage?AIt h

50、elps short-term memory for sure. BIt makes remembering things interesting.CIt helps to remember things for long. DIt makes remembering prayers effortlessly.2The word “chunks” in Paragraph 2 probably means “_”.Adetails Bturns Cgroups Dlines3What can we infer from the passage?ACreating a picture is us

51、eful in learning math.BInventing a prayer trains our memory quickly.CRemembering long numbers is easy for people.DAsking yourself questions activates the memory.4Whats the writers main purpose in writing this passage?ATo complain that his memory is bad.BTo recognize some memory problems.CTo explain

52、some memory experiments.DTo share some ways of improving memory.F18、Do you want to know something about children in Africa? What do they do for fun every day?
