(78)The meanings of thou- sands of everyday perceptions, the bases for the decisions we make, and the roots of our habits and skills are to be found in our past experiences, which are brought into the present by memory.Memory can be defined as the capacity to keep information available for later use. It includes not only remembering things like arithmetic or historical facts, but also involving any change in the way an animal typically behaves. (79)Memory is involved when a rat gives up eating grain be- cause he has sniffed something suspicious in the grain pile. Memory is also involved when a six- year-old child learns to swing a baseball bat.Memory exists not only in humans and animals but also in some physical objects and machines. Computers, for example, contain devices for storing data for later use. It is interesting to compare the memory-storage capacity of a computer with that of a human being. The instant-access memory of a large computer may hold up to 100,000 words ready for instant use. An average U.S. teenager probably recognizes the meaning of about 100,000 words of English. However, this is but a fraction of the total amount of information which the teenager has stored. Consider, for ex- ample, the number of faces and places that the teenager can recognize on sight.The use of words is the basis of the advanced problem-solving intelligence of human beings. A large part of a person’ s memory is in terms of words and combinations of words.According to the passage, memory is considered to be （）Athe basis for decision making and problem solvingBan ability to store experiences for future useCan intelligence typically possessed by human beingsDthe data mainly consisting of words and combinations of words6.Some psychologists(心理学家) maintain that mental acts such as thinking are not performed in the brain alone, but that one’s muscles also participate. (76)It may be said that we think with our muscles in somewhat the same way that we listen to music with our bodies.You surely are not surprised to be told that you usually listen to music not only with your ears but with your whole body. Few people can listen to music without moving their body or, more specifically, some part of their body. Often when one listens to a symphonic concert on the radio, he is attracted to direct the orchestra (乐队) even though he knows there is a good conductor on the job.Strange as this behavior may be, there is a very good reason for it. One cannot derive all possible enjoyment from music unless he participates, so to speak, in its performance. The listener feels himself into the music with more or less noticeable motions of his body.(77) The muscles of the body actually participate in the mental process of thinking in the same way, but this participation is less obvious because it is less noticeable.Some psychologists think that thinking is ()Anot a mental processBmore of a physical process than a mental actionCa process that involves our entire bodiesDa process that involves the muscles as well as the brain7.Today anyone will accept money in exchange for goods and services. People use money to buy food, furniture, books, bicycles and hundreds of others they need or want. When they work, they usually get paid in money.Most of the money today is made of metal or paper. But people used to use all kinds of things as money. One of the first kinds of money was shells.Shells were not the only things used as money. In China, cloth and ’knives were used. In the Philippine Islands, rice was used as money. In some parts of Africa, cattle were one of the earliest kinds of money. Other animals were used as money, too.The first metal coins were made in China. They were round and had a square hole in the center. People strung them together and carried them from place to place.Different countries have used different metals and designs for their money. The first coins in England were made of tin. Sweden and Russia used copper to make their money. Later, other countries began to make coins of gold and silver.But even gold and silver were inconvenient if you had to buy something expensive. Again the Chinese thought of a way to improve money. They began to use paper money. (80)The first paper money looked more like a note from one person to another than paper money used today.Money has had an interesting history from the days of shell money until today.Which of the following can be cited as an example of the use of money in exchange for services（）ATo sell a bicycle for $ 20.BTo get some money for old books at a garage sale.CTo buy things you need or want.DTo get paid for your work.8.Even a child knows that nodding head means Yes.
