Can you still remember the things happening when you were a child?  Grown­ups are often amazed by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since. A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.

One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, additional learning trials (尝试) increase the length of time we will remember it.

In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but overlearn.

The multiplication tables (乘法口诀表) are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.

The law of overlearning explains why cramming (突击学习) for an examination, though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary for one’s future development.

24. What does Paragraph 1 mainly tell us?

A. Children have a better memory than grown­ups.

B. People remember well what they learned in childhood.

C. Poem reading is a good way to learn words.

D. Stories for children are easy to remember.

25. What method does the author use to explain the law of overlearning?

A. presenting research findings    B. setting down general rules

C. giving examples      D. making a comparison

26. According to the author, being able to use multiplication tables is           .

A. a result of overlearning    B. a special case of cramming

C. a skill to deal with math problems  D. a basic step towards advanced studies

27. What does the word “they” in Paragraph 4 refer to?

A. Commonly accepted rules.    B. School subjects.

C. Things easily forgotten.    D. The multiplication tables.

C

What we choose to do is up to us. “Life is for living”, according to a well-used expression. That may not be completely true, but there is no harm in dreaming about what we’d like to achieve in our life. Many of us write a list of things we’d like to do before we leave this world — often called a bucket list.

Bucket lists have been called “the greatest hits of your life” and have helped some people overcome anxiety which would have stopped them following their dreams. Some of us may choose to write one to fill our life with exciting and new experiences — from skydiving to swimming with sharks — the list is unlimited. This is something the BBC radio programme “All in the Mind” has been looking at. It heard from a blogger called Annette White, who said she made a promise to live her bucket list which “continuously pushes the comfort zone to its limits and beyond it.” Such a list can be exciting and can indeed help you plan your life and give you focus.

Creating a bucket list can certainly give us hope, but Clinical psychologist Linda Blair told the BBC that he was “not really in favour of bucket lists, which take you away from the chance to be spontaneous (顺其自然的).” It’s probably true that a list can encourage people to follow someone else’s idea of the perfect life. But why not at least dream of what we would like to do? Why not reach for the stars, even if we only reach the sky? Whether we want to plan it or just see what happens, we don’t know what tomorrow will bring, so maybe we should live for today.

28. What’s the purpose of “Life is for living” mentioned in Paragraph1?

A. To provide an evidence.      B. To make an explanation.

C. To make a comparison.    D. To draw out the topic to be discussed.

29. Why is Annette White mentioned by the writer?

A. To prove what wide popularity bucket lists are.

B. To explain the working principle of bucket lists.

C. To show the helping functions of bucket lists. 

D. To tell us the existing problems.

30. What is Linda Blair’s attitude towards bucket lists?

A. objective.   B. disapproving.     C. positive.    D. Indifferent.

31. What does the passage mainly tell us?

A. Whether we need a bucket List.   B. How we can make a bucket list.

C. How we can use our bucket list.   D. When we ignore our bucket list.

D

Have you heard of Robin Hood? Some people believe that a Robin Hood is at work, others that a wealthy person simply wants to distribute his or her fortune before dying. But the donator who started sending envelopes with cash, accompanied by an article from the local paper, has made a northern German city believe in fairytales (童话).

The first envelope was sent to a victim support group. It contained €10,000 with a cutting from the Braunschweiger Zeitung about how the group supported a woman who was robbed of her handbag; similar plain white anonymous (匿名) envelopes, each containing €10,000, then arrived at a kindergarten and a church.

The envelopes keep coming, and so far at least €190,000 has been distributed. Last month, one of them was sent to the newspaper’s own office. It came after a story it published about Tom, a 14­year­old boy who was severely disabled in a swimming accident. The receptionist at the Braunschweiger Zeitung opened an anonymous white envelope to find 20 notes of €500 inside, with a copy of the article. The name of the family was underlined.

“I was driving when I heard the news,” Claudia Neumann, the boy’s mother, told Der Spiegel magazine. “I had to park on the side of the road; I was speechless.”

The money will be used to make the entrance to their house wheelchair accessible and for a course of treatment that their insurance company refused to pay for.

“For someone to act so selflessly, for this to happen in such a society in which everyone thinks of himself, was astonishing,” Mrs. Neumann said. Her family wonder whether the donator is a Robin Hood character, taking from banks to give to the needy.

Henning Noske, the editor of the Braunschweiger Zeitung, said: “Maybe it is an old person who is about to die. We just do not know.” However, he has told his reporters not to look for the city’s hero, for fear that discovery may stop the donations.

32. What is Braunschweiger Zeitung?

A. A church     B. A bank   C. A magazine   D. A newspaper

33. Which of the following is TRUE about the donation to Tom?

A. The donation amounted to €190,000.

B. The donation was sent directly to his house.

C. His mother felt astonished at the donation.

D. The money will be used for his education.

34. What can be inferred from the passage?

A. The donation will continue to come.  

B. The donator is a rich old man.

C. The donation comes from the newspaper.

D. The donator will soon be found out.

35. Which do you think is the best title for the passage?

A. Money Is Raised by the Newspaper.

B. Newspaper Distributes Money to the Needy.

C. Unknown Hero Spreads Love in Envelopes.

D. Robin Hood Returns to the City.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

There have always been a lot of commonly believed but false ideas about being fat and doing exercise.     36    . While others hold that if they stop exercising, their muscles will turn into fat. Here are some more myths(缪见):

         I’ll never lose weight—I come from a fat family

Wrong! While we can’t change the body type we are born with, we can’t blame our genes for making us fat. There’s plenty of evidence that fatness runs in families.     37    .

             38    .

Wrong! Fatness is not caused by a slow metabolism(新陈代谢). In fact, although fat people consume more energy than slim people, they also fail to realize how much they eat! Keeping a diary can help you work out your daily food intake more accurately（精确）.

         Exercise is boring

Wrong!     39    . The key is to develop a balanced and varied program that’s fun as well as progressive. If you enjoy a Sunday walk, take a different route. If you do yoga, try a tai chi class. If you like swimming, set yourself a distance or time challenge.

         No pain, no gain

Wrong! Exercise is not meant to hurt. Indeed, pain is your body telling you something’s wrong, and continuing to exercise could lead to serious injury. You may experience mild discomfort as you begin to exercise regularly, but this is your body adapting to the positive changes in your lifestyle and the aches should disappear relatively quickly.     40    .

A. I am fat because I burn calories slowly.

B. And the main reason is that they share the same habits of eating too much and

exercising too little.

C. Some people believe that they can’t help putting on weight as they get older.

D. Anything will be interesting if you do the same kind of exercise.

E. If they don’t, rest and seek medical advice.

F. Anything will become boring if you do it repetitively

G. And the only reason is that their parents are fat.

Many years ago there was a young man who was getting ready to graduate from university. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer’s(商人) showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted.

As Graduation Day approached, the young man waited for signs that his father had bought the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation, his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful wrapped(包裹好的) gift box. Curious, but somewhat disappointed, the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible（圣经）, with the young man’s name embossed（饰刻）in gold.

Angrily, he raised his voice to his father and said, "With all your money you give me a Bible?" He then stormed out of the house, leaving the Bible in his father’s study.

Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and a wonderful family, but realizing his father was very old, he thought perhaps he should go to see him. He had not seen him since that graduation day.

注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；

Before he could make the arrangements, he received a call telling him his father had passed away.
