Mark began to introduce the guest speaker to the listeners, but then stopped for a while. He had forgotten her name. Barbara hid her valuable things when she went on vacation. When she came back, she couldn’t remember where she’d put them. Perhaps you’ve had such experiences like these. Most people have. But most of them haven’t realized that they have a memory problem. Neither do they know a simple but important fact: Memory can be improved. If you’ll just accept that, the following will show you how. First, relax. If you are over worried about remembering something, you’ll forget it. If you keep telling yourself that your memory is bad, your mind will come to believe it and you won’t remember things. When you forget something, don’t follow up with sayings like “Oh, my God! I always forget things!” Such words will have a bad result on you and your memory. But relaxing isn’t enough. To improve your memory, you’ll need to take an active role. Like your body, your memory can be made strong through exercise. Look for opportunities to exercise your memory. For example, if you’re learning a language, try to actively remember a lot of new words. If you don’t take notice of things actively, you won’t remember them. So, you can make pictures of what you see in your mind every day. For example, don’t just put your keys down! If you want to find them again, make a mind picture of the place where you’re putting them. 1.The first two paragraphs just tell us ________. A. Barbara was a very rich person B. Mark often forgot his friends’ names C. examples of memory problems D. language problems of two persons 2. When you forget things, you ________. A. must be too careless B. shouldn’t lose heart about your memory C. must accept the fact D. shouldn’t take notice of the result 3.The word “opportunities” in the fifth paragraph means “________”. A. places B. activities C. positions D. chances 4. According to the passage, ________ can make your memory better. A. realizing your memory problems B. talking to your friends C. making mind pictures of what you see D. doing sports every day 5.The purpose of the passage is to help you ________. A. to improve your memory B. to introduce the guest C. to remember new words D. to forget unhappy things

Do you like to eat sushi(寿司)? Many people are afraid to eat it, because they think the bacteria(细菌) in it might make them sick. However, a new study shows that sea bacteria are good for people. The study finds that a special enzyme(酶) from sea bacteria is helpful to humans. It helps people to get more energy from food. To people’s surprise, the enzyme is present only in the Japanese. The Japanese traditionally like to eat food rich in seaweed(海藻). And the seaweed is rich in this kind of enzyme. However, the enzyme isn’t present in all the Japanese. During the study, just 5 out of 14 Japanese had the enzyme. All the Americans studied didn’t have the enzyme. “The number is small,” said researcher Mirjam Czjzek. “But we can say that this enzyme is present only in the Japanese and not in the North Americans.” Then some people think that maybe other people are able to get the enzyme if they eat a lot of seaweed. The study suggests that they collect uncooked seaweed to make their sushi. Restaurant sushi is often cooked, which will destroy the enzyme. So, if you want to get that enzyme, you can travel to Japan to have a taste of the real sushi. 1. Sea bacteria are _______ for people. A. helpful B. harmful C. important D. necessary 2. Why do the Japanese have the special enzyme? A. Because they eat a lot of seaweed. B. Because they were born with such an enzyme. C. Because they get more energy from food. D. Because they like to eat food full of bacteria. 3.Which of the following is FALSE? A. The Japanese have a diet rich in seaweed. B. All the Japanese studied have the special enzyme. C. All the North Americans studied don’t have the enzyme. D. The enzyme helps people to get more energy. 4.According to the study, about _______ of Japanese have the enzyme. A. 5% B. 14% C. 35% D. 60% 5.Which of the following food has the enzyme? A. Restaurant sushi. B. Restaurant seaweed. C. Uncooked seaweed. D. Seaweed soup.

A serious problem for today’s society is who should be responsible(有责任的) for our elderly and how to improve their lives. It is not only a financial(财务的) problem but also a question of the systerm we want for our society. I would like to suggest several possible ways to this problem. First, employers(雇主) should take the responsibility for their retired(退休的) employees. To make this possible, 1% of profits(利润) should be left for this purpose. But when a company must take life-long responsibility for its employees, it may suffer from a commercial(商业的) disadvantage because of higher employee costs. Another way of solving the problem is to return the responsibility to the individual(个人). This means each person must save during his working years to pay for his years of retirement. This does not seem a very fair model since some people find that it’s difficult for them to pay for their daily life without trying to earn extra to cover their retirement years. This means the government might have to step in to care for the poor. In addition, the government could take responsibility for the care of elderly. The government could provide more money through government taxes to increase the level of pensions(养老金). What’s more, some institutions(社会福利机构) should be created for senior citizens, which can help provide a comfortable life for them. Unluckily, as the present situation in our country shows, this is not a truly practical answer. The government doesn’t have enough money to care for the elderly, particularly when it is busy trying to care for the young. One further solution is that the government or social organizations set up some working places especially for the elderly where they are independent. In short, all these measures have advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, we are expecting to combine(结合) these measures so that we can provide the care we hope to give to our elderly generations.

Most of us use alarm clocks to wake up at the right time for school or work. We look at our watches to know the right time for the bus or train. However, there is also a right time to eat, sleep, exercise, and take medicine. We can’t look at a clock for the right time for these activities. We must listen to the clock inside our bodies: the biological clock. Barbara Wells exercised every morning. She woke up at 6:00 a.m. She ran about two miles before she went to work. But Barbara’s legs and back started to hurt. She did some exercise before she ran. But her legs and back still hurt. She ran slower, but the pain didn’t stop. Barbara talked to her doctor. The doctor said, “Don’t run in the morning. Try to exercise later in the day. That is the time when your body is at the right temperature for exercise after work.” Her legs and back didn’t hurt anymore. Today, doctors are learning more about chronobiology(n.生物钟学), the study of biological(adj.生物的) clocks. They are learning about the importance of time for our bodies. For example, it is best for people to go to sleep on time every night and to eat only when they’re hungry. Also, doctors discovered that some illnesses, such as heat attacks, occur(v.发生)most often in the morning. This information tells them that the best time to take heart medication may be at night. When patients take heart medication(n.药物)at night, they may prevent a heart attack in the morning. Many doctors believe chronobiology(生物钟) can help us live healthier lives. It may be the right time to listen to these doctors! 1.Do we all have biological clocks inside our bodies? ____________________________________________________________________ 2.How far did Barbara Wells run every morning? ____________________________________________________________________ 3.How did Barbara Wells’ legs and back get well? ____________________________________________________________________ 4.What is the right time for the person who has a heart attack to take heart medication? ____________________________________________________________________ 5.What can we learn from the passage? ____________________________________________________________________
