11、19北京,C) Sometimes it seems that time is flying. Perhaps it doesnt need to feel this way. Our experience of time can be possibly changed. By understanding the psychological(心理学的)processes behind our different experiences of time, we might be able to slow down time a little. One basic law of psycholog
12、ical time is that time seems to slow down when were exposed(接触)to new envi- ronments and experiences. The law is caused by the relationship between our experience of time and the amount of information our minds process. The more information our minds take in, the slower time seems to pass. It follow
13、s, then, that we have different experiences of time in different situations. In some situations, our life is full of new experiences. Our minds process a lot of information and time seems to slow down. In other situa- tions, we have fewer new experiences and the world around us becomes more and more
14、 familiar(熟悉的). We become insensitive to our experience, which means we process less information, and time seems to speed up. How can we slow down time? Here are two suggestions. Firstly, since we know that familiarity makes time pass faster, we can expose ourselves to as many new experi-,ences as p
15、ossible. We can give ourselves new challenges, meet new people, and expose our minds to new infor- mation, hobbies and skills. This will increase the amount of information our minds process and expand(增加)our experience of time. Secondly, and perhaps most effectively, we can give our whole attention
16、to an experienceto what we are see- ing, feeling, tasting, smelling or hearing. This means living through our senses rather than through our thoughts. For example, on the way home, focus your attention outside of yourself, instead of thinking about the problems you have to deal with. Look at the sky
17、, or at the buildings you pass, traveling among them. This open attitude to your experiences helps take in more information and also has a time-expanding effect. To a certain degree, we can understand and control our experience of time passing. Its possible for us to slow down time by expanding our
18、experience of time. 1.According to the writer, we can expand our experience of time by . A.going to bed on time B.traveling to new places,C.having dinner as usual D.printing the same materials 2.What can we learn from the passage? A.Being familiar with the world around helps us get more information.
19、 B.Understanding psychological time makes life pass more quickly. C.We can take in more information by living through our senses. D.We should build a stronger relationship between time and us. 3.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A.Slow Down Time B.Only Time Will Tell C.

22、 degree在一定程度上,Civilizations(文明) develop through forgetting life skills that were once necessary. In the Agricultural(农业的) Age, a farmer could afford to forget hunting skills. When societies industrialized, the knowledge of farming could be safe to forget. Nowadays, smart machines give us access to m
23、ost human knowledge. It seems that we no longer need to remember most things. Does it matter? Researchers have recognized several problems that may happen. For one, human beings have biases(偏见), and smart machines are likely to increase our biases. Many people believe smart machines are necessarily
24、correct and objective, but machines are trained through a repeated testing and scoring process. In the process, human beings still decide on the correct answers. Another problem relates to the ease of accessing information. When there were no computers, efforts were re- quired to get knowledge from
25、other people, or go to the library. We know what knowledge lies in other brains or books, and what lies in our heads. But today, the Internet gives us the information we need quickly. This can lead to the mistaken beliefthe knowledge we found was part of what we knew all along.,In a new civilization
26、 rich in machine intelligence,we have easy access to smart memory networks where informa- tion is stored. But dependency on a network suggests possibilities of being harmed easily. The collapse of any of the networks of relations our well-being(健康)depends upon, such as food and energy, would produce
27、 terrible results. Without food we get hungry; without energy we feel cold. And it is through widespread loss of memory that civilizations are at risk of falling into a dark age. We forget old ways to free up time and space for new skills. As long as the older forms of knowledge are stored somewhere
28、 in our networks, and can be found when we need them, perhaps theyre not really forgotten. Still, as time goes on, we gradually but unquestionably become strangers to future people. 1.Why are smart machines likely to increase our biases? A.Because they go off course in testing and scoring. B.Because
29、 we control the training process on them. C.Because we offer them too much information. D.Because they overuse the provided answers.,2.The ease of accessing information from the Internet . A.frees us from making efforts to learn new skills B.prevents civilizations from being lost at a high speed C.m
30、isleads us into thinking we already knew the knowledge D.separates the facts we have from those in the smart machines 3.The word “collapse” in Paragraph 5 probably means “ ”. A.a sudden failure B.the basic rule C.a disappointing start D.the gradual development 4.What is the writers main purpose in w
31、riting this passage? A.To question about the standards of information storage. B.To discuss our problems of communication with machines. C.To stress the importance of improving our memorizing ability. D.To remind us of the risk of depending on machines to remember.,答案 语篇解读 本文为一篇议论文。随着网络的快速发展,学生还需要记忆
32、大量的知识吗?我们能依赖智能机 器去记忆吗? 1.B 细节理解题。根据第三段最后两句Many people believe smart machines are necessarily correct and ob- jective, but machines are trained through a repeated testing and scoring process.

Then I noticed how the mom was picking the fruits. At first I thought she was really looking at the fruits
39、 because she was facing them, but then I noticed how much she had to feel and smell each one as she picked them out. And she often asked her son if it looked okay, but looked way above where his face was. Putting what I saw to- gether, I was sure she was blind.,Both of the kids continued to help the

The woman then felt each one and smiled, and the daughter would put them into their basket. The kids were smiling while helping their mom pick the fruits out. Their smile and gen
41、tle manner moved me in a way that never happened before. It was so beautiful to see such young kids so willingly help. Most kids that age would be picking out candies or toys in a store for themselves, instead of helping their mom pick out fruits, as the two kids did.,It was great to witness the mom

46、ildren in Spain. Lifelong exposure(接触) to green space in the liv- ing places was recordedusing the information on the childrens addresses from birth up through to the time of the study. Brain structure was studied using 3D magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Working memory and inat- tentiveness(注意力不集中
47、)were graded with computers. “This is the first study that shows the association between long-term exposure to green space and brain struc- ture,” says Dr. Payam Dadvand, the leading researcher of the study. “Our findings suggest that exposure to green space early in life could result in beneficial
48、structural changes in the brain.” The findings show that long-term exposure to greenness is positively associated with white and grey matter vol- umes in several parts of the brain. Some of them are related to higher scores on cognitive tests. Moreover, larger volumes of white and grey matter in tho
49、se parts might lead to better working memory and less inattentiveness. Exposure to nature has been thought to be necessary for brain development in children. Another study of 2,593,children shows that children in schools with more green space have a greater increase in working memory and a greater decrease in inattentiveness. Humans are believed to be tied to nature. Playing in greener areas offers children opportunities to search and learn. Accordingly, green space is thought to prompt important exercises in discovery, cre
