10、r Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments.She and her research team wanted to know the Internet is changing memory.In the first experiment,they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer.The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information.The second group
11、 understood that the computer would not save it.Later,the second group remembered the information better.People in the first group knew they could find the information again,so they did not try to remember it.In another experiment,the researchers gave people facts to remember,and told them where to
12、find the information on the Internet.The information was in a specific computer folder (文件夹).Surprisingly,people later remembered the folder location better than the facts.When people use the Internet,they do not remember the information.Rather,they remember how to find it.This is called “transactiv
13、e memory (交互记忆)”.According to Sparrow,we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet.Instead,computer users are developing stronger transactive memories;that is,people are learning how to organise huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later
14、 date.This doesnt mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent,but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.21.What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrows research?A.We are using memory differently.B.We are becoming more intelligent.C.We have poorer memories than
15、 before.D.We need a better way to access information.22.Why does the passage begin with two questions?A.To introduce the main topic.B.To show the authors attitude.C.To describe how to use the Internet.D.To explain how to store information.23.What can we learn about the first experiment?A.Sparrows te

17、he quantity of information.C.To organise information like a computer.D.To remember how to find the information.BWhen John was growing up,other kids felt sorry for him.His parents always had him weeding the garden,carrying out the garbage and delivering newspapers.But when John reached adulthood,he w
18、as better off than his childhood playmates.He had more job satisfaction,a better marriage and was healthier.Most of all,he was happier.Far happier.These are the findings of a 40-year study that followed the lives of 456 teenage boys from Boston.The study showed that those who had worked as boys enjo
19、yed happier and more productive lives than those who had not.“Boys who worked in the home or community gained competence and came to feel they were worthwhile members of society,” said George Vaillant,the psychologist who made the discovery.“And because they felt good about themselves,others felt go
20、od about them.”Vaillants study followed these males in great detail.Interviews were repeated at ages 25,31 and 47.Under Vaillant,the researchers compared the mens mental-health scores with their boyhood-activity scores.Points were awarded for part-time jobs,housework,effort in school,and ability to
21、deal with problems.The link between what the men had done as boys and how they turned out as adults was surprisingly sharp.Those who had done the most boyhood activities were twice as likely to have warm relations with a wide variety of people,five times as likely to be well paid and 16 times less l
22、ikely to have been unemployed.The researchers also found that IQ and family social and economic class made no real difference in how the boys turned out.Working at any age is important.Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility,independence,confidence and competencethe underpinnings (基
23、础) of emotional health.They also help him understand that people must cooperate and work toward common goals.The most competent adults are those who know how to do this.Yet work isnt everything.As Tolstoy once said,“One can live magnificently in this world if one knows how to work and how to love,to

25、grew into happy men.26.What does the underlined word “sharp” probably mean in Paragraph 4?A.Quick to react.B.Having a thin edge.C.Clear and definite.D.Sudden and rapid.27.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A.Competent adults know more about love than work.B.Emotional health is essential to
26、 a wonderful adult life.C.Love brings more joy to people than work does.D.Independence is the key to ones success.28.What do we know about John?A.He enjoyed his career and marriage.B.He had few childhood playmates.C.He received little love from his family.D.He was envied by others in his childhood.C
27、Everyone needs to be safe,loved and to have a sense of belonging.These are inborn and natural basic needs.In an effort to have these needs satisfied,many of us tend to please others.And it works for a while.We find that we experience less conflict with others,but the conflict within ourselves grows.
28、Saying “no” produces a feeling of guilt and saying “yes” brings anger.My father was in the military,so we moved frequently.Being shy,I didnt make friends.Whats more,I grew up in a household where grades,image and how others saw our family were very important.In our household a “C” was unacceptable,a
29、 “B” should have been an “A” and an “A” meant the lesson was too easy.I was too skinny,my sister was too fat and my brothers lips and ears were too big for his tiny head.To stop pleasing others is easier said than done.Its a long process,one in which I am consistently working to be perfect.The turni
