    Memory, they say, is a matter of practice and exercise. If you have the wish and really make a conscious effort, then you can quite easily improve your ability to remember things. But even if you are successfulthere are times when your memory seems to play tricks on you.

Sometimes you remember things that really did not happen. One morning last week, for example, I got up and found that I had left the front door unlocked all night, yet I clearly remember locking it carefully the night before.

Memory “tricks" work the other way as well. Once in a while, you remember not doing something, and then find out that you did. One day last month, for example, I was sitting in a barber shop waiting for my turn to get a haircut, and suddenly I realized that I had got a haircut two days before at the barber shop across the street from my office.

We always seem to find something funny and amusing in incidents caused by people’s forgetfulness or absent -mindedness. Stories about absent -minded professors have been told for years, and we never get tired of hearing new ones. Unfortunately, however absent -mindedness is not always funny. There are times when “tricks" of our memory can cause us great trouble.

1.If you want to have a good memory, you should ________.

A.never stop learning new things B.use your memory to play tricks

C.make a conscious effort of practice D.force yourself to remember things

2.What can be learnt from the text?

A.One night the writer locked the front door as usual.

B.The writer had had his hair cut two days before.

C.The writer got into trouble when crossing the street.

D.The writer was regarded as a forgetful professor.

3.How do you understand the underlined part in Paragraph 4?

A.We enjoy hearing new stories about absent -mindedness of professors.

B.We will never get tired of listening to new stories about absent-mindedness.

C.Absent- mindedness happens not only to professors but to many other people.

D.We are unwilling to know anything more about absent-mindedness of professors.

    Having a great collection of books at home doesn’t really mean that you are a person who loves reading. It may be got from your father or your father’s father, and it can just impress people around you with the fact that you are a person of culture.

From my point of view, reading is very important in our daily life. For example, reading is a way of gaining knowledge in different areas. It can help us have a great imagination, and it makes things easier when it comes to making compositions on different themes. It gives you the possibility to speak about science, even if you don’t work in this field. You can express your opinions about a political event because you have read something about that.

Secondly, reading gives us the possibility to enter the world of imagination. We can imagine what life will be like in the future. Sometimes, we compare ourselves with the people in the stories we read and they can give us some clues to solve the problems and tell us what to do in certain situations. Books are based on real life. Even if writers are considered to be somehow different from common people, they often face the same problems as we all do.

In short, I would like to say that literature is the perfect way of enriching our culture, expressing correctly, having a rich vocabulary, being able to understand different fields and really being considered to be a learned person.

1.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the text?

A.Reading a lot is good for writing

B.Reading can help us gain knowledge

C.Reading can help us have a great imagination

D.Reading helps us enter the field of politics easily

2.We can learn from the third paragraph that ____ .

A.people in stories are always unbelievable

B.books may help us solve problems

C.writers are good at dealing with problems in life

D.writers often have different experiences in life

3.What can be the best title for the text?

A.Why Is Reading Important in Our Life

B.How Can We Become a Learned Person

C.Different Reading, Different Functions

D.Having a Good Collection of Books Means a Lot
