online,sometimeswithout an artist，s permission.This can lead to many problems,and music companiesare now cracking down on this practice.Sharing music online without permission istheft.Sharing music online prevents recording companies from making money through theirefforts.They say that sharing music online has resulted in a huge drop in profitsand sales over the past 10 years.People who find music for free online are not payingfor CDs or every MP3 download.To truly understand the influence of music piracy（盗 版 行 为）on creators,one must understand how many people are involved in the recordingprocess.For the sale of each album,profits must be shared between musicians,soundengineers,music producers,managers,advertisers,and the company selling theproduct.Many people believe sharing music only affects the recording artist,but thereality is that sharing hurts business of all the companies involved.There are many people who dont see the harm in sharing music online and eventhink they have the right to do it.One online blogger states that he originally paidfor an entire CD and that he should be able to do with the material whatever hewants.While he may have legally paid for the music,he does not have the right toprovide permission,which means people like the blogger are thieves.Although we don，t spread today，s music the same way we did before,theres nodoubt that people around the world love to share music.However,Internet piracy wouldprevent musicians from continuing producing albums for fear of theft.Therefore,if people want to continue listening to their favorite artists,they need to buy theirmusic so that artists will make enough profit to continue their music careers.语 篇 解 读 本 文 是 一 篇 议 论 文。作 者 论 述 了 在 没 有 经 过 音 乐 版 权 持 有 人 允 许 的 情 况 下 在 网 上 分 享 音 乐 的 危

案：ACHaving an older brother or sister comes with plenty of benefits.Big brothers andsisters tend to look out for their younger siblings,and despite the occasional rockymoments,many siblings have lifelong close relationships.However,a new study findsthe interesting downside:children with older brothers take longer when it comes todeveloping language skills.The study,conducted by a group of researchers in Paris,France,buiIds on theearlier research that had already established that having older siblings isassociated with poor linguistic（语 言 的）development.Now,researchers say they havecome to a more specific conclusion:only chiIdren with older brothers exhibit theselinguistic difficulties.One would assume that children with older brothers would grow up around moreconversation on a daily basis,thus speeding up their language development.Yetresearchers say such children actually take longer than their older brothers to begindeveloping these skills.Researchers studied more than 1,000 children from their birth to the age of fiveand a half years old.Each child，s language skills were tested at ages 2,3,and 5.5,using tests specially designed to measure numerous aspects of language developmentsuch as vocabulary,syntax（句 法），and verbal reasoning.What the research team discovered was significant:children with older brothershad,on average,a two-month delay in their language development compared to childrenwith older sisters.When explaining this phenomenon,researchers have proposed twohypotheses（假 设）.The first hypothesis is that older sisters tend to talk more oftenthan older brothers,which would make up for parents potentially being less presentthan they were for their first child.The second is that older sisters usually competewith their siblings less than older brothers for their parents love.So far,the studys authors say they cant say for certain why children with olderbrothers have a harder time developing language skills.In the future they would liketo investigate if cultures or locations impact the results of the study.语 篇 解 读 有 一 个 哥 哥 或 姐 姐 有 很 多 益 处，哥 哥 和 姐 姐 倾 向 于 照 顾 他 们 的 弟 弟 妹 妹，但 一 项 新 的 研 究 发 现，有 哥 哥 的 孩 子 的 语 言 能 力 发 展 比 较 慢。8.People may

two types of declarative memory:Recollections of experiences suchas the day we started school are called episodic memory（事 件 记 忆）.This type of recallis our explanation of an episode or event that occurred.Factual knowledge,on theother hand,such as the capital of France,is part of semantic（语 义 的）memory.Thesetwo types of declarative memory content have one thing in commonyou are aware ofthe knowledge and can communicate the memories to others.Skills such as playing an instrument or riding a bicycle are,however,rooted in aseparate system called procedural memory.In the 1950s,an epileptic（癫 痫 患 者）named Henry Gustav Mo lai son（H.M.）underwentthe removal of portions of his brain.After the operation,doctors found that although11.M.s condition got much better,he was unable to form new memories.Many of hismemories before the operation were also erased.To learn more about his condition,neuropsychologists carried out various testswith II.M.In one,they asked him to draw a five-pointed star on a sheet of paper whileonly looking at it and his hand in a mirror,which means the image was reversed（颠 倒 的）.Although H.M.s hand-eye coordination skills improved over the several days,he never remembered performing it.Is procedural knowledge then fundamentally more stable than explicit knowledge?As it turns out,the former is more resistant to both loss and trauma（创 彳 穷）.Evenwith traumatic brain injury the procedural memory system is hardly evercompromised.That*s probably because the structures responsible for processingnondeclarative memory are protected in the brain,s center.However,it,s not clear,beyond brain damage,why procedural memory contents are not as easily forgotten asdeclarative ones are.According to one idea,in the regions where movement patternsare rooted,fewer new nerve cells may be formed in adults.Without the developmentof nerve tissues,its less likely for those memories to get erased.语 篇 解 读 本 文 是 一 篇 说 明 文。我 们 大 脑 里 的 不 同 部 分 分

or her abilities and value,and may feel that he or she can achieve realisticgoals.Discussions are common classroom practices,and provide another opportunity toobserve the effects of self-esteem on students behavior.When students discuss classtopics,they learn to express complex ideas and respond to different arguments.2Likewise,a student with weak self-esteem is probably more unlikely to prove
