20、 can't remember right now.”Have you ever heard your grandparents ask questions like this sometimes? Usually, we think that older people's memory becomes bad because their brains get weak. But now a team of scientists at the University of Tubingen in Germany has a new idea. “The human brain w

21、orks slower in old age,” says Michael Ramscar, the lead scientist. “But only because they have stored more information overtime.” The findings are based on a series of computer simulations(模擬) of learning and memory. Scientists let the computers read a certain amount of words and learn new things ea

22、ch day. When the computer "reads" only so much, its performance on cognitive(認(rèn)知)tests is similar of a young adult. But if the computer learns the experiences we might encounter over a lifetime, its performance is similar to that of an older adult. Often it is slower, but not because its pr

23、ocessing capacity has declined. Rather, increased "experience" has caused the computer's database to grow, giving it more data(數(shù)據(jù))to processwhich takes time. This is similar to old people. Imagine a person knows two people's birthdays. Another person knows the birthdays of 2000 peo

24、ple, but can only match the right person to the right birthday nine times out of 10. Can you say the first person has a better memory than the second person?46. The writer uses a question at the beginning of the passage to .A. invite the readers to answer the question B. attract the readers' att

25、ention to the topic C. show how weak older people's brains are D. tell the readers the latest findings about brains47.According to the research, why do old people forget people's names easily? A. Because they have a very poor memory. B. Because they are too old to remember things. C. Because

In a guidebook.49.What would be the best title for the passage? A. Do old people have a bad memory? B. Sci

27、entists' new findings on brains C. Human brain's processing capacity D. Which is better, the old or the young?BIf you saw a group of kids hitting and abusing(虐待，傷害)an animal, would you stop them? Would you at least call the police? Again people would walk away. Some people do not believe tha

28、t animal abuse is a big issue(問題). Every day animals are abused in their homes or on the streets. It seems as if politicians(從政者)do nothing to stop this issue. Everyone is worried about education and global warming. What about animals? We should not forget them just because they cannot talk to us. A

29、nimals, like us humans, have rights. Every living being has the right to warm shelter and good food, but most importantly, they have the right to be wanted and loved. They have the right to be a special, much loved member of their own family. There are many organizations that deal with abused animal

30、s or animals that have no home like ASPCA, PETA, the Humane Society and many more. There are organizations that deal with this issue, but that does not mean that we still shouldn't help. The biggest saying that bothers me is, "I am only one person. I can't make a difference." If ev

31、eryone thought like that, we wouldn't have the organizations and loving people who help the world every day. By helping one animal, you are making a difference. There are many things you can do right now to help animals around your neighbourhood. You can volunteer at your local animal shelter, r

32、aise money for animal shelters, inform your community about animal abuse or you can write to your representatives(代表)and tell them that animal abuse needs to be taken seriously. As you walk down the street, try to help any animal you see walking around. You can easily buy a cheap box of dry cat or d

33、og food to feed the animals. If we do not help our animals now, we may never have animals again. Always remember that with every step you take, you help save an animal's life and isn't that worth fighting for?50. Some people won't stop kids from abusing animals because . A. they are too

34、busy to worry about the animals B. they don't take animal abuse seriously C. they just leave it to the police D. they are afraid of being laughed at51. We can learn from the text that ASPCA . A. is another name for the Humane Society B. provides shelter for both animals and humans C. deals with

35、such issues as education and global warming D. aims at protecting animals from being abused52. Which of the following statements will the writer agree with? A. Dogs have the right to be treated kindly B. One person cannot possibly make a difference C. More attention should be paid to education and g

36、lobal warning than animal abuse D. It is the politicians' duty to stop animal abuse53. The main purpose of the text is to . A. hate those who abuse animals B. advise people to slap animal abuse C. show how animals are abused D. explain why people abuse animalsCIll never forget that summer day in

37、 1965 when my mother suddenly died of an unexplained illness at the age of 36. Later that afternoon, a police officer stopped by to ask my father if the hospital could use Mothers corneas(角膜). I was shocked. “The doctors want to dissect Mum and give her away to other people!” I thought as I ran into

38、 the house in tears.“How can you let them do that to her?” I screamed at my father. “My mum came into this world in one piece and that is how she should go out.”“Linda,” Father said quietly, putting his arm around me, “the greatest gift you can give is a part of yourself. Your mother and I decided l

39、ong ago that if we can make a difference in just one persons life after we die, our death will have meaning.” He went on to explain they had both decided to donate their organs(器官).The lesson my father taught me that day became one of the most important in my life.Years passed.

40、amily of my own. In 1980, my father became seriously ill and moved in with us.

41、er grandpas room and gave him a big hug. She was only fourteen years old-the same age at which I was introduced to such a thing. What a difference!My father died on April 11,1986, and we donated his eyes as he had wanted. Three days later, Wendy said, “Mum, Im so proud of you for what did for Grandp

For example, we climbed a high mountain, tasted a rare food, or ran into a superstar on the street. But new research suggest

49、s that sharing these unusual experiences may not be welcomed in conversation. We all like unusual experiences, and always can't wait to share them with our friends. Some people even thought that having an unusual experience would make them the star of the conversation. However, it was wrong. To

50、be unusual means to be different from other people. And if you do not share similarities with the people around you, they will not welcome you in the conversation. Besides, conversations always seem to go well on more usual topics. To find out, psychologists(心理學(xué)家)invited 68 participants(參與者)to come

51、to the lab in groups of four. In each group, one watched a wonderful video of a magic performance, while the other three watched a cartoon video. After watching the videos, the participants sat around a table and had a short conversation. The participants who watched the magic performance said they

52、felt worse after the conversation than those who watched the cartoon video. That was because they felt left out during the conversation. This finding suggests that we might want to give more thought in choosing which experiences to share with others. If an experience turns you into someone who has nothing in common with others, then no matter how good it was, it will not make you happy.73. W
