11、 state that they just have normal brains. Some memory superstars compete in Olympic-like World Memory Championships. These mental athletes, or MAs for short, can memorize names of dozens of strangers in a few minutes or any poem handed them. Ed Cooke, a 24-year-old MA, explains they see themselves a

12、s participants rescuing the long-lost art of memory training. These techniques existed not to recall useless information, but to cut into the brain basic text and ideas.A study in the journal Nature examined eight people who finished near the top of the World Memory Championships. The scientists exa

13、mined whether their brains were fundamentally different from everyone elses or whether they were simply making better use of memorizing abilities we all possess. They put the MAs and control subjects into brain scanners and had them memorize numbers and photographs. The result surprised everyone. Th

14、e brains of the MAs and those of the control subjects were indistinguishable. On every test, the MAs scored in the normal range. However, when the scientists examined what part of the brain was used during a memory activity, they found the MAs relied more heavily on areas in the brain involved in sp

15、atial memory.MAs offer an explanation: anything can be fixed upon our memories and kept in order by constructing a building in the imagination and filling it with pictures of what needs to be recalled. Dating back to the fifth century, the building is called a memory palace. Even as late as the four

16、teenth century, when there were copies of any text, scholars needed to remember what was read to them. Reading to remember requires a different technique than speed reading. If something is made memorable, it has to be repeated. Until relatively recently, people read only a few books intensively (細(xì)致

17、地) again and again, usually aloud. Today we read extensively, usually only once and without continuous focus.So the great difference is the ability to create impressive pictures in mind and to do it quickly. Using memory palaces, MAs create memorized pictures. For example, recombine the pictures to

18、form unforgettable scenes such as the ways through a town. One competitor used his own body parts to help him memorize a 57,000-word dictionary.Anyone who wishes to train the mind needs first to create fantastical palaces in the imagination. Then they should cut each building into cubbyholes for mem

19、ories. In a short amount of time, they will notice improvement with remembering things. To keep the skill sharp, MAs deliberately empty their palaces after competitions, so they can reuse them and they recommend that beginners do the same.1、We can learn from Paragraph 2 that a mental athlete _.Aowns

23、eye signals and translates them into letters, allowing people with motor neurone disease to communicate with others from a phone.The GazeSpeak app combines a smartphones camera with artificial intelligence to recognize eye movements in real time and convert them into letters, words and sentences.For

24、 people suffering from ALS（漸凍癥）, also known as motor neurone disease, eye movement can be the only way they are able to communicate.“Current eye-tracking input systems for people with ALS or other motor impairments are expensive, not strong and healthy under sunlight, and require frequent re-check a

25、nd lots of relatively fixed setups,” said Xiaoyi Zhang, a researcher at Microsoft who developed the technology.“To ease the drawbackswe created GazeSpeak, an eye-gesture communication system that runs on a smartphone, and is designed to be low-cost, stable, hand-held and easy to learn.”The app is us

26、ed by the listener by pointing their smartphone at the speaker. A chart that can be stuck to the back of the smartphone is then used by the speaker to determine which eye movements to make in order to communicate.The sticker shows four grids of letters, which each correspond to a different eye movem

27、ent. By looking up, down, left or right, the speaker selects which grids (格) the letters they want belong to. The artificial intelligence computational procedure is then able to predict the word or sentence they are trying to say.Zhangs research, Smartphone-Based Gaze Gesture Communication for Peopl

Just as we were about to board the plane，a mechanic came out of the aircraft and blocked the door with his arms. He turned to the flight

31、attendant and hurriedly stated，“We got problems！”I thought to myself，“Why did I have to be the one to hear that？Why couldnt I have been at the back of the line？I didnt need to know that！”Very soon we were back in the terminal，waiting，and then finally back on the plane. I waited for the pilot to give

32、 an explanation. Pilots take courses to ease passengers mind，right？They know what to say to calm nerves. Unfortunately，I didnt think this pilot took that course. Soon his voice thundered throughout the plane，Sorry for the delay，ladies and gentlemen. We had no power on the plane. We have a generator

33、on the ground right now，and were going to jump-start the engines. Once we get them going，well get up in the air and head to Norfolk，and see what happens. ”See what happens？We were going to get up in the air，and see what happens？Couldnt we have another plan，one thats been worked out just a little bet

34、ter？At this point，all I could do was to laugh nervously. One woman started yelling，“Oh no！Were going to crash！”There were sighs of desperation and anxiety spreading throughout the cabin. Finally，we got up in the air thirty minutes later，and what happened？Nothing-other than thrust（推力）and lift. We arr

35、ived in Norfolk，and no sooner had the wheels touched the ground than a round of applause burst out，as everyone throughout the airplane breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. Although，I did sincerely like to have a plan better than “see what happens worked out when flying-it really isnt such a b

36、ad life strategy. Success will never be guaranteed. The best thing you can do is just get up in the air，and see what happens. Sometimes adjustments would be made in the air，or shall we say，in the middle of the process.1、The purpose of the text is to_.Aintroduce a frightening flight experienceBprove

49、t in Practice25（10分）Conformity involves changing your behaviour to “fit in” or “go along” with the people around you. In some cases, this social influence might involve agreeing with or acting like the majority of people in a specific group, or involve behaving in a particular way to be viewed as “n

50、ormal” by the group. Actually, conformity is something that happens regularly in our social world. Sometimes were aware of our behaviour, but in many cases it happens without much thought or awareness on our parts. And even in some cases we go along with things we disagree with or behave in ways we

51、know we shouldnt.There are countless examples of conformity in life. For instance, a teenager dresses in a certain style because he wants to fit in with the rest of the teenagers in his social group. A woman reads a book for her book club and really enjoys it. When she attends her book club meeting,

52、 the other members all dislike the book. Rather than go against the group opinion, she simply agrees with the others that the book is terrible.Why do we conform? In many cases, looking to the rest of the group for clues for how we should behave can actually be helpful. Others might have greater know

53、ledge or experience than we do, so following their lead can actually be instructive. And in some cases, we conform to the expectations of the group to avoid looking foolish. This tendency can become especially strong in situations where we arent quite sure how to act. Additionally, there are some si

54、tuations where we conform just in order to avoid punishments or gain rewards.There are many factors that influence conformity. For example, not knowing how to perform a difficult task makes people more likely to conform. Personal characteristics such as motivation to achieve and strong leadership ab

55、ilities are linked with a decreased tendency to conform. And people are more likely to conform in situations that involve between three and five other people.1、What can we learn about conformity from the first paragraph?AActually it is rare for us to conform.BBlind conformity should be criticized.CS

56、ometimes people tend to conform unconsciously.DConformity means changing your behaviour reluctantly.2、Which of the following is a case of conformity?AJoining a certain organization.BFollowing the ongoing fashion.CSharing something personal with others.DGiving up your creative ideas cautiously.3、When

57、 are we most likely to conform according to the text?AWhen we are at a loss.BWhen we are rejected.CWhen we feel threatened.DWhen we feel uncomfortable.4、What can be inferred from the last paragraph?AConformity cannot be avoided by anyone.BConformity is linked to the size of the group.CConformity is

58、a natural response to challenges.DConformity isnt related to individual differences.第三部分 語(yǔ)言知識(shí)運(yùn)用（共兩節(jié)）第一節(jié)（每小題1.5分，滿分30分）閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的A、B、C和D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)26（30分）完形填空 （共20小題，每小題1.5分，滿分30分）I believe that small acts of kindness have the biggest influence on our lives.
