Children talk about the best ways to protect the environment.

In daily life, we waste a lot of things such as plastics, paper, etc. You can recycle these wastes instead of throwing them in a trash can. You can categorize (分类) them into non-recyclable and recyclable products and send recyclable products to a recycling company.

Buying reusable and used items is a great way to protect the environment. By choosing used products, the number for new products will be cut down and of course, your money will be also saved. Visit local used furniture (家具) and used appliance (家用电器) stores to find your needed items.

Another way to protect the environment is to walk or ride the bike for short trips. If you take a short trip and the weather is nice, why not ride your bike or even walk? It not only helps reduce air pollution but helps you enjoy the fresh air.

Never forget to turn off the water taps after using. And you can also recycle waste water for other uses like cleaning the bathroom or watering gardens. This is also one of the best ways to protect the environment that many people need to know and follow it.

21. Who suggests sending recyclable products to a recycling company?

22. Steve’s suggestion is that you ________ to protect the environment.
A. recycle the daily wastes B. choose used products

A Country Music Song Changed Her Life Forever
When Sarah was a teenager, she used to fight over almost everything with her family. But five years ago, while she was studying abroad in England, she heard a song full of feelings about returning home on the radio. It made Sara think about her family and friends back in the US. She came to realize how much she actually missed all of them. Ever since then she has been a fan of American country music.
Country music is a traditional kind of music from the southern states of America. Nashville, Tennessee is the home of country music. Many songs these days are just about modern life in the US, such as the importance of money and success, but not about belonging to a group. However, country music brings us back to the “good old days” when people were kind to each other and trusted one another. It reminds us that the best things in life are free—laughter, friends, family, and the beauty of nature and the countryside.
Sarah hasn’t been to Nashville yet but it is her dream to go there one day. She has already read a lot about the place and done some research on it. She knows that there is a Country Music Hall of Fame Museum in Nashville. There are also always a lot of great country music concerts with famous musicians and singers like Garth Brooks. Sarah has already listened to most of his songs. “Garth is one of the most successful musicians in American history. He’s sold more than 120 million records. I hope to see him sing live one day!”
24. Where did country music come from?
A. The eastern states of America.
B. The western states of America.
C. The southern states of America.
D. The northern states of America.
25. The country music will remind us the best things in life like ________.
A. the importance of money
B. friends and family
C. great country music concerts
D. the hope for success
26. Sarah’s dream is to ________.
A. learn country music
B. be a famous country music singer
C. go to Nashville one day
D. see a famous country music singer

Each year, you’ll spend a total of about 24 hours brushing your teeth. You’ve got to make sure you’re doing it right, day in, and day out — unless you want to have fewer teeth than your great-great-grandparents.
Brush for the right length of time: The best advice for top toothbrushing technique (技术) are the best-practice guidelines from both the American Dental Association and the British Dental Association. They suggest almost the same length of time that you should brush your teeth. You have to brush your teeth for two minutes, twice a day, every day.
And it’s important to hit each and every one of your teeth. It is a good way to set a timer and don’t stop until it goes off. You can use the one on your phone, or even get a special sand timer with smiling teeth to remind you that happy teeth mean no visits to the doctor. You can also get an electric toothbrush with a built-in timer that will keep you brushing for two minutes.
When you brush, it is important, too. It is advised that you wait at least 60 minutes after eating, especially if you’ve had fruits. Brush too soon and you’re not letting your body’s natural tooth protection do its work.
Use proper brushing technique: It’s also about how you do it. To make the most of your brushing time, you’ll want to make sure you’re using the correct technique. Use a soft toothbrush that feels comfortable and fits your mouth—a hard toothbrush can harm your teeth.

Once you’ve got your brush all pasted (涂牙膏) up, hold it at a 45-degree angle (角度) to your teeth and brush gently. One big mistake people make is brushing too hard, believing this will be more effective and get their teeth cleaner, faster. Instead, think of the toothbrush as a broom — the harder you press, the less dirt it can sweep. So brush gently, if you want your toothbrush to do its job properly.
Once you’ve thoroughly (彻底地) cleaned every surface of your teeth, don’t forget about your tongue (舌头). Research shows just brushing your tongue is effective at reducing bad breath.
27. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. When you should brush your teeth.
B. How long you should brush your teeth.
C. How often you should brush your teeth.
D. How you can brush for the right length of time.
28. Why does the writer talk about a broom in Paragraph 6?
A. To show how you should hold your toothbrush.
B. To stress the importance of brushing technique.
C. To explain why you should brush teeth gently.
D. To suggest some possible ways of brushing teeth.
29. The word “sweep” in Paragraph 6 probably means “________”.
A. clear B. spend C. stop D. hold
30. Which of the following would be the best title for passage?
A. Don’t Worry about Your Teeth
B. How to Brush Your Teeth Properly
C. Brush for the Right Length of Time
D. It’s Important to Brush Your Teeth
D
Can Training Your Working Memory Make You Smarter?
We would all like to increase our cognitive (认知的) ability beyond the limits set by Mother Nature. So it’s no wonder that brain-training programs — which focus on training our working memory — are a multibillion-dollar industry. But can this kind of training really make us smarter?
Cognitive training sees the brain as a kind of muscle (肌肉) that can be made stronger with the right kind of practice. Although people did much research, there has been no agreement about its effectiveness. Some think that cognitive training increases some cognitive abilities, while others are less hopeful.
Yet we do know that some cognitive skills probably go together and are predictors of real-life skills such as work performance. Thus, training one cognitive skill might lead to an improvement in many other cognitive and non-cognitive skills. That is the key hypothesis (假设) on which working-memory training is based.
To test this hypothesis, we examined all the studies about working-memory training. The results were very clear. Working-memory training did not show any effect on children’s fluid intelligence (流体智力), a person’s ability to solve new problems and get used to new situations. It didn’t influence their educational achievement or other cognitive abilities, either. The only dependable effect was that children got better at what they were trained to do. So performing working memory tasks does seem to make you better at doing them. However, the fact that participants (参与者) got better at such tasks does not necessarily mean that their working memory ability increased. They may just have learnt how to perform that type of task.
The results do show that the use of working-memory training programs as an educational tool is useless. Beyond working-memory training, other recent studies have shown the limitations of different types of cognitive training.
However, these negative (负面的) results must not discourage us from training our cognitive and non-cognitive skills. We just have to realize the actual limitations of such practice in areas outside what we are actually training. But that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t do it — the most efficient way to develop a skill is, after all, to train that skill.
31. According to the passage, cognitive training probably ________.
A. benefit the training companies
B. balance the learning skills
C. make us stronger through practice
D. help the children get good results
32. Children taking part in the experiments were able to ________.
A. be familiar with new situations quickly
B. get greater educational achievements
C. succeed when they solve real life problems
D. do better in the field that they were trained in
33. What is the writer’s opinion on the cognitive training?
A. The cognitive training is a useful experiment.
B. The cognitive training can’t make us smarter.
C. The cognitive training challenge the children’s skills.
D. The experiment is helpful to children’s cognitive skills.

Every country seems to celebrate high school graduations in different ways, with some places having huge events, while others more low-key. Swedish high school graduation is a very special day full of strange, funny and unique (独特的) traditions.
All students wear special white hats with their names on them. The hat is quite similar to the kind of hat that a ship’s captain wears. Girls prefer to wear a simple white dress, while boys wear suits. After getting dressed, students will have a champagne (香槟酒) breakfast in a large garden. Graduation takes place in the summer and usually the sun is out. Having breakfast outdoors is really a joyful thing. It is the perfect way to start the day.
After breakfast, students go to school and there is a graduation ceremony. After picking up their diplomas (毕业证书), students will make their way out into an outside space at the school. Their family and friends gather there and wait for their coming. Each family holds up a picture of the students as a baby or a small child. Then they give flower chains to wear round the students’ necks. Family and friends also give them small gifts, such as a medal, a ring or a watch, which are usually kept for the rest of life.
With loud music, students get on a truck. And there are some slogans (标语) hanging on the truck. The truck runs around the town while the students wave, dance, laugh and enjoy themselves. People in the street will cheer to express good wishes as the students drive past.
Graduation in Sweden has turned into a whole town event. Relaxation seems to have become the real theme of Swedish graduation. The only thing students need to do is to enjoy the time with their friends and family.

35. When does graduation take place?

But five years ago, while she was studying abroad in England, she heard a song full of feelings about returning home on the radio. It made Sara think about her family and friends back in the US. She came to realize how much she actually missed all of them. Ever since then she has been a fan of American country music.
Country music is a traditional kind of music from the southern states of America. Nashville, Tennessee is the home of country music. Many songs these days are just about modern life in the US, such as the importance of money and success, but not about belonging to a group. However, country music brings us back to the “good old days” when people were kind to each other and trusted one another. It reminds us that the best things in life are free—laughter, friends, family, and the beauty of nature and the countryside.
Sarah hasn’t been to Nashville yet but it is her dream to go there one day. She has already read a lot about the place and done some research on it. She knows that there is a Country Music Hall of Fame Museum in Nashville. There are also always a lot of great country music concerts with famous musicians and singers like Garth Brooks. Sarah has already listened to most of his songs. “Garth is one of the most successful musicians in American history. He’s sold more than 120 million records. I hope to see him sing live one day!”
24. Where did country music come from?
A. The eastern states of America.

Each year, you’ll spend a total of about 24 hours brushing your teeth. You’ve got to make sure you’re doing it right, day in, and day out — unless you want to have fewer teeth than your great-great-grandparents.
Brush for the right length of time: The best advice for top toothbrushing technique (技术) are the best-practice guidelines from both the American Dental Association and the British Dental Association. They suggest almost the same length of time that you should brush your teeth. You have to brush your teeth for two minutes, twice a day, every day.
And it’s important to hit each and every one of your teeth. It is a good way to set a timer and don’t stop until it goes off. You can use the one on your phone, or even get a special sand timer with smiling teeth to remind you that happy teeth mean no visits to the doctor. You can also get an electric toothbrush with a built-in timer that will keep you brushing for two minutes.
When you brush, it is important, too. It is advised that you wait at least 60 minutes after eating, especially if you’ve had fruits. Brush too soon and you’re not letting your body’s natural tooth protection do its work.
Use proper brushing technique: It’s also about how you do it. To make the most of your brushing time, you’ll want to make sure you’re using the correct technique. Use a soft toothbrush that feels comfortable and fits your mouth—a hard toothbrush can harm your teeth.

Once you’ve got your brush all pasted (涂牙膏) up, hold it at a 45-degree angle (角度) to your teeth and brush gently. One big mistake people make is brushing too hard, believing this will be more effective and get their teeth cleaner, faster. Instead, think of the toothbrush as a broom — the harder you press, the less dirt it can sweep. So brush gently, if you want your toothbrush to do its job properly.
Once you’ve thoroughly (彻底地) cleaned every surface of your teeth, don’t forget about your tongue (舌头). Research shows just brushing your tongue is effective at reducing bad breath.
27. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. When you should brush your teeth.
B. How long you should brush your teeth.
C. How often you should brush your teeth.
D. How you can brush for the right length of time.

A. To show how you should hold your toothbrush.
B. To stress the importance of brushing technique.
C To explain why you should brush teeth gently.
D. To suggest some possible ways of brushing teeth.
29. The word “sweep” in Paragraph 6 probably means “________”.
A. clear B. spend C. stop D. hold

A. Don’t Worry about Your Teeth
B. How to Brush Your Teeth Properly
C. Brush for the Right Length of Time

Can Training Your Working Memory Make You Smarter?
We would all like to increase our cognitive (认知的) ability beyond the limits set by Mother Nature. So it’s no wonder that brain-training programs — which focus on training our working memory — are a multibillion-dollar industry. But can this kind of training really make us smarter?
Cognitive training sees the brain as a kind of muscle (肌肉) that can be made stronger with the right kind of practice. Although people did much research, there has been no agreement about its effectiveness. Some think that cognitive training increases some cognitive abilities, while others are less hopeful.
Yet we do know that some cognitive skills probably go together and are predictors of real-life skills such as work performance. Thus, training one cognitive skill might lead to an improvement in many other cognitive and non-cognitive skills. That is the key hypothesis (假设) on which working-memory training is based.
To test this hypothesis, we examined all the studies about working-memory training. The results were very clear. Working-memory training did not show any effect on children’s fluid intelligence (流体智力), a person’s ability to solve new problems and get used to new situations. It didn’t influence their educational achievement or other cognitive abilities, either. The only dependable effect was that children got better at what they were trained to do. So performing working memory tasks does seem to make you better at doing them. However, the fact that participants (参与者) got better at such tasks does not necessarily mean that their working memory ability increased. They may just have learnt how to perform that type of task.
The results do show that the use of working-memory training programs as an educational tool is useless. Beyond working-memory training, other recent studies have shown the limitations of different types of cognitive training.
However, these negative (负面的) results must not discourage us from training our cognitive and non-cognitive skills. We just have to realize the actual limitations of such practice in areas outside what we are actually training. But that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t do it — the most efficient way to develop a skill is, after all, to train that skill.
31. According to the passage, cognitive training probably ________.
A. benefit the training companies
B. balance the learning skills
C make us stronger through practice
D. help the children get good results
32. Children taking part in the experiments were able to ________.
A. be familiar with new situations quickly
B. get greater educational achievements
C. succeed when they solve real life problems
D. do better in the field that they were trained in
33. What is the writer’s opinion on the cognitive training?
A. The cognitive training is a useful experiment.
B. The cognitive training can’t make us smarter.
C. The cognitive training challenge the children’s skills.
D. The experiment is helpful to children’s cognitive skills.
【答案】31. A 32. D 33. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文，探讨训练工作记忆是否能让你更聪明。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据“So it’s no wonder that brain-training programs — which focus on training our working memory — are a multibillion-dollar industry.”可知，专注于训练我们工作记忆的大脑训练项目成为一个价值数十亿美元的产业，所以认知培训可能会使培训公司受益。故选A。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据“The only dependable effect was that children got better at what they were trained to do.”可知，唯一可靠的效果是孩子们在他们被训练做的事情上变得更好。故选D。
【33题详解】
观点态度题。根据“So performing working memory tasks does seem to make you better at doing them. However, the fact that participants (参与者) got better at such tasks does not necessarily mean that their working memory ability increased. They may just have learnt how to perform that type of task.”可知，执行工作记忆任务似乎确实能让你做得更好，然而参与者在这些任务中表现更好并不一定意味着他们的工作记忆能力提高了，他们可能只是学会了如何完成这类任务。由此推知作者认为认知训练不能让我们更聪明，故选B。

Every country seems to celebrate high school graduations in different ways, with some places having huge events, while others more low-key. Swedish high school graduation is a very special day full of strange, funny and unique (独特的) traditions.
All students wear special white hats with their names on them. The hat is quite similar to the kind of hat that a ship’s captain wears. Girls prefer to wear a simple white dress, while boys wear suits. After getting dressed, students will have a champagne (香槟酒) breakfast in a large garden. Graduation takes place in the summer and usually the sun is out. Having breakfast outdoors is really a joyful thing. It is the perfect way to start the day.
After breakfast students go to school and there is a graduation ceremony. After picking up their diplomas (毕业证书), students will make their way out into an outside space at the school. Their family and friends gather there and wait for their coming. Each family holds up a picture of the students as a baby or a small child. Then they give flower chains to wear round the students’ necks. Family and friends also give them small gifts, such as a medal, a ring or a watch, which are usually kept for the rest of life.
With loud music, students get on a truck. And there are some slogans (标语) hanging on the truck. The truck runs around the town while the students wave, dance, laugh and enjoy themselves. People in the street will cheer to express good wishes as the students drive past.
Graduation in Sweden has turned into a whole town event. Relaxation seems to have become the real theme of Swedish graduation. The only thing students need to do is to enjoy the time with their friends and family.
