How to Remember What You Read Reading is...

How to Remember What You Read

Reading is important, but the next important step is making sure that you remember what you've read! 1.You may have just read the text, but the ideas, concepts and images may fly right out of your head. Here are a few tips for remembering what you read.

Are you confused?

If the plot, characters, or word usage is confusing for you, you likely won't be able to remember what you read. 2. If you don't understand what you're reading, how would you remember it? There are a few things you can do--use a dictionary look up the difficult words consult a teacher...

Are you connected?

Does a character remind you of a friend? Does the setting make you want to visit the place? Does the book inspire you and make you want to read more? With some books, you may feel a connection right away. 3.How willing are you to make the connections happen?

Read it; hear it; be it!

Read the lines. Then, speak them out loud. And, put some character into the words. When he was writing his novels, Charles Dickens would act out the parts of the characters. He'd make faces in the mirror and change his voice for each character. 4. .

How often do you read? If you read frequently, you'll likely have an easier time with remembering what you're reading and what you've read. 5.As you make reading a regular part of your life, you'll make more connections, stay more focused and understand the text better. You'll learn to enjoy literature--as you remember what you read !

A.What's your motivation?

B.Practice makes perfect.

C.It's a bit like reading a foreign language.

D.Marking helps you remember what you read.

E.Memory is sometimes a tricky thing.

F.But other books require a bit more work on your part.

G.You can do the same thing when you are reading the text!

 

1.E 2.C 3.F 4.G 5.B 【解析】 本文是一篇说明文,介绍了如何记住我们读过的书。 1.考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空后”You may have just read the text, but the ideas, concepts and images may fly right out of your head.”你可能已经阅读文字,但思想、概念和图象可能会从你的脑中飞出,这说明有时候记忆是件很难对付的事情,因此选项E. Memory is sometimes a tricky thing.(记忆是件很难对付的事情)符合语境。故选E。 2.考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空前”If the plot, characters, or word usage is confusing for you, you likely won’t be able to remember what you read.”可知如果你的故事情节、人物或词汇用法让你感到困惑,你可能不会记得你读到的东西,因此本段是介绍你是否是困惑的,选项It’s a bit like reading a foreign language.(困惑的感觉就像是在读外语。)符合语境。故选C。 3.考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空前“With some books, you may feel a connection right away.”可知有一些书,你可能马上感觉到一种联系,本句中的some books和选项F中的other books相对应,因此选项F. But other books require a bit more work on your part.(但是其他的书需要你做更多的工作)符合语境。故选F。 4.考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空前狄更斯为例,讲到“He’d make faces in the mirror, and change his voice for each character.”他会在镜子里做鬼脸,为每个角色改变自己的声音。接下来应该是建议“你”也可以做同样的事,因此选项G. You can do the same thing when you are reading the text!(你读文本时也能做同样的事)故选G。 5.考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据最一段”If you read frequently, you’ll likely have an easier time with remembering what you’re reading and what you’ve read.”如果你经常阅读,你可能会更容易记住你所读的内容和你曾经读过的内容,可知此处是告诉我们熟能生巧,因此选项B. Practice makes perfect.(熟能生巧)符合语境。故选B。

    If you could change your child's DNA in the future to protect them against diseases, would you? It could be possible because of technology known as CRISPR- Cas, or just CRISPR.

CRISPR involves a piece of RNA, a chemical messenger, designed to work on one part of DNA it also uses an enzyme (If) that can take unwanted genes out and put new ones in, according to The Economist. There are other ways of editing DNA, but CRISPR will do it very simply, quickly, and exactly.

The uses of CRISPR could mean that cures are developed for everything from Alzheimer's to cancer to HIV. By allowing doctors to put just the right cancer-killing genes into a patient's immune system, the technology could help greatly.

In April scientists in China said they had tried using CRISPR to edit the genomes (基因组)of human embryos. Though the embryos would never turn into humans, this was the first time anyone had ever tried to edit DNA from human beings. With this in mind, the US' National Academy of Sciences plans to discuss questions about CRISPR s ethics(伦理问题).For example? CRISPR doesn't work properly yet. As well as cutting the DNA it is looking for, it often cuts other DNA, too. In addition, we currently seem to have too little understanding of what DNA gives people what qualities.

There are also moral questions around playing God”. Of course, medicine already stops natural things from happening-for example, it saves people from infections. The opportunities to treat diseases make it hard to say we shouldn't keep going.

A harder question is whether it is ever right to edit human germ-line(种系)cells and make changes that are passed on to children. This is banned in 40 countries and restricted in many others. However, CRISPR means that if genes can be edited out, they can also be edited back in. It may be up to us as a society to decide when and where editing the genome is wrong.

Also, according to The Economist, gene editing may mean that parents make choices that are not obviously in the best interests of their children: “Deaf parents may prefer their children to be deaf too parents might want to make their children more intelligent at all costs.

In the end, more research is still needed to see what we can and can't do with CRISPR. “It's still a huge mystery how we work,” Craig Mello? a UMass Medical School biologist and Nobel Prize winner, told The Boston Globe, "We're just trying to figure out this amazingly complicated thing we call life.

1.What is the passage mainly about?

A.What we can and can't do with CRISPR.

B.How CRISPR was developed by scientists.

C.The advantages of CRISPR and arguments about its ethics.

D.Scientists' experiments of using CRISPR to edit human embryos.

2.According to the passage, the technology of CRISPR .

A.is very safe because it only cuts the DNA it is looking for

B.is banned in most countries and restricted in many others

C.could cause parents to make unwise choices for their children

D.could help us discover the link between DNA and the qualities it gives people

3.It can be inferred from the passage that .

A.all diseases could probably be cured through the uses of CRISPR

B.scientists had never edited genomes before CRISPR was invented

C.CRISPR is a technology that uses an enzyme to work on RNA and DNA

D.CRISPR has proven to be the most effective way to protect children against diseases

4.What is the author's attitude towards CRISPR?

A.Supportive. B.Worried. C.Negative. D.Objective.

    A black hole is created when a large star burns out. Like our sun, stars are unbelievably hot furnaces(熔炉)that burn their own matter as fuel. When most of the fuel is used up, the star begins to die.

The death of a star is not a quiet event. First there is a huge explosion. As its outer layer is blasted off into space, the dying star shines as brightly as a billion suns.

After the explosion gravity pulls in what's left of the star. As the outside of the star sinks toward the center, the star gets smaller and smaller. The material the star is made of becomes tightly packed together. A star is so dense that a teaspoon of matter from it weighs billion of pounds.

The more the star shrinks, the stronger the gravity inside it becomes. Soon the star is very tiny, and the gravity pulling it in is unbelievably strong. In fact, the gravity is so strong that it even pulls light into the star! Since all the light is pulled in, none can flee. The star becomes black when there is no light. Then a black hole is born!

That's what we know about black holes. What we don't know is this: What happens inside a black hole after the star has been squeezed into a tiny ball? Does it keep getting smaller and smaller forever? Such a possibility is hard to imagine.

But if the black hole doesn't keep shrinking, what happens to it? Some scientists think black holes are like doorways to another world. They say that as the star disappears from our universe, it goes into another universe. In other words a black hole in our universe could turn into a “white hole” in a different universe. As the black hole swallows light, the white hole shines brightly-somewhere else. But where? A different place, perhaps, or a different time-many years in the past or future.

Could you travel through a black hole? Right now, no. Nothing we know of could go into a black hole without being crushed. So far the time being, black holes must remain a mystery.

Black holes are a mystery-but that hasn't stopped scientists from dreaming about them. One scientist suggested that in the future we might make use of the power of black holes. They would supply all of Earth's energy needs, with plenty to spare. Another scientist wondered if a black hole could some day be used to swallow earthly waste-a sort of huge waste disposal(处理)in the sky!

1.When the star begins to die, .

A.there is no fuel left in it

B.its outer layer goes into space first

C.it will explode and then become smaller

D.it doesn't give off light any longer

2.Which of the following doesn't help produce a black hole?

A.The star becomes very tiny and dense.

B.The light can't go out of the star.

C.The gravity inside the star is very strong.

D.The dying star shines very brightly.

3.What can we know from the passage?

A.A star will blast and die when it lacks fuel to support its burning.

B.A black hole can swallow everything because it becomes smaller all the time.

C.Man can never travel through a black hole but can make use of its power.

D.Scientists have found that a black hole goes into another universe and becomes a white hole.

4.What's the best title for this passage?

A.A New Scientific Discovery: Black Holes

B.How Do Black Holes Come into Being?

C.What Are Black Holes?

D.Travel Through A Black Hole

    I am the proud owner of three pet dogs. Over the years, I have watched their behaviours carefully that help me when I travel around the world.

One important lesson that my dog, Cody, taught me is how to deal with little problems in life. From his calm behavior when someone knocked unexpectedly at the door to the indifferent way he has dealt with his recent serious illness, he has always had the same easy-going attitude. This attitude is an important lesson to me in how I can face difficult situations when travelling, I've learned to try to handle bad situations calmly, such as when we miss a train? lose luggage? and so on.

Another dog of mine, Preston, loves to walk around the yard, spending hours smelling every place and finding out what it means to him. Taking it slowly is another lesson that's been very hard for me to learn. As an active traveller, I am actually experiencing less by speeding through everything, rather than slowly getting to know a place. Even if it means that you won't see as many things, going slowly when you travel is the only way to really get to know a new place. Rushing around a foreign city isn't fun at all.

My dog, Moya, came from a truly bad situation. I am not sure what happened to her before I just know it wasn't good. And while she has become more relaxed over the years, she is still slightly on edge. She is very cautious when faced with any new situation. But once she's accustomed to her new surroundings, she is fine. She doesn't let fear influence her experience. The same can be applied to our travel experience. No matter where we go, we need to manage new situations with caution--while at the same time not letting that caution turn into fear.

Many thanks to my pets. Truly speaking, pets are as basic to American culture as hot dogs or apple pies. To Americans, pets are not just property, but a part of the family. After all, pets are people, too, with the help of whom I am able to gain a lot and live differently.

1.One of the three dogs, Cody,_______ .

A.once suffered from a serious illness

B.is excited when under pressure

C.enjoys walking around the yard

D.is unable to deal with new situations

2.From Preston, the author learned that one should ______.

A.pay attention to the details in life

B.try to see as many things as possible when travelling

C.stay indifferent to strangers

D.travel around slowly and have fun

3.The underlined phrase "on edge" in the fourth paragraph probably means “_____ ”.

A.hungry B.nervous C.calm D.angry

4.Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?

A. B. C. D.
