To tell a love story Before you cut off the tags(标签)and put on your newest clothing, you may want to make a stop at the washing machine Although new clothing may look clean and fresh, it could actually be bad for your health According to Donald Belstio, MD, a professor at Columbia University Medical Center, new clothes do cause some risks of health problems when they are worn without washing For starters, in an interview with the Wall Street Journal, Dr Belstio explained that dyes(染料)found on new clothes can hurt the skin Prewashing of new clothes will prevent any dyes from doing bad to our skin or other things, like chairs, as New York City doctor Hilary Baldwin, MD, told Real Simple But there's more Dr Belstio also warns that lice(虱子)can come to you from clothing tried on the store dressing room, and there are certain illnesses that can be passed along through clothing Dr Baldwin advises people that it's especially _ to prewash pieces like underpants and swimsuits You may not want to imagine this, but maybe you're not the first person to try on that new clothing一perhaps it's been tried on in the dressing room, and that's just the first of many cases of possible skin contact Another point is that your clothing came into contact with many people during the producing, shipping, and selling processes "There's just no real way of knowing how many hands or other body parts have touched your clothing, " Dr Belstio warns "Washing your new clothes is a very smart thing to do, " Dr Belsotio said "I've seen examples of some strange things, so I don't take any chances" To wash new clothes, simply put them in very hot water (if they can stand that temperature一check the tag first), and hang them to dry While you prepare your new clothes for their first fashion show, here are other common laundry(洗衣)mistakes you want to avoid (1)What does the underlined word "critical" in Paragraph 3mean?_A.

Many people think that repeating things is the best way to remember themWhile this undoubtedly helps shortterm memory(remembering a telephone number for a few seconds, for example), psychologists(心理学家)doubt whether it can help you remember things for very long The British psychologist E C Stanford seemed to prove this point when he tested himself on five prayers(祈祷文)that he had read aloud every morning for over 25 years He found that he could remember no more than three words of some of them! More helpful, especially for remembering numbers, is grouping the informationThe following numbers would be impossible for most of us to remember: 31848 But look at them in _, and it becomes much easier: 1492 1789 1993 1848 According to experts, there are many ways of training your memory Many of them involve forming a mental picture of the things to be memorized One method, which may be useful in learning foreign languages, is to create a picture in your mind connected to a word you want to remember Another method is to invent a story that includes all the things you want to rememberIn experiments, people were asked to remember up to 120 words using this skill; when tested afterwards, on average, they were able to recall 90% of them! However, not all of us are interested in learning long lists of names and numbers just for funFor those studying a large amount of information, psychologists suggest that the best way to form meaningful connections is to ask yourself lots of questions as you go along So, for example, if you were reading about a particular disease, you would ask yourself questions like: "Do people get it from water? ", "What parts of the body does it influence? " and so on This is said to be far more effective than time spent "passively" reading and rereading notes (1)Which of the following is TRUE about repeating things according to the passage?_A. It helps shortterm memory for sureB. It makes remembering things interestingC. It helps to remember things for longD. It makes remembering prayers effortless (2)The underlined word "chunks" in Paragraph 2 probably means "_"A. detailsB. turnsC. groupsD. lines (3)What can we infer from the passage?_A. Creating a picture is useful in learning MathsB. Inventing a prayer trains our memory quicklyC. Remembering long numbers is easy for peopleD. Asking yourself questions activates the memory (4)What's the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?_A. To complain that his memory is badB. To recognize some memory problemsC. To explain some memory experimentsD. To share some ways of improving memory四、词汇检测 (每小题1分, 满分10分)根据下列句子所给汉语注释或通过上下文,写出空缺处各单词的正确形式每空只写一词 一What are you doing in the garden?一I am_ (挖)a hole to plant a tree Superman's eyes are like_ ( X光) and he can see you clearly Even_ (尽管)people's lives are better, more people are unhealthy Mr Jiang couldn't sleep well,so het ook a sleeping pill Half an hour later, it_ (奏效) My parents are both busy these days, but we will take a vacation_ (在某时)in July It is said that coffee can keep us awake,but I always feel even_ (困倦)after drinking it Saturday is to weekend as Tuesday is to_ Little Tom is only six years old He is not old_ to go to a primary school _ it or not, even our monitor didn't pass the test this time 一Why not put on your_ ?
