It also suggests that identification of people by witnesses in a courtroom is not as (1) as com

2、monly believed. Recent studies do not support the (2) of faith judges, jurors, lawyers and the police have in eyewitness evidence.The Law Commission recently published an educational paper, Total Recall The Reliability of Witness (3) , as a companion guide to a proposed code of evidence. The paper f

But while human memory is (5) change, it should not be underestimated.In court witnesses are asked to give evidence about events, and judges and juries (6) its reliability. The paper points out that memory

4、 is complex, and the reliability of any person’s recall must be assessed (7) .Both common sense and research say memory (8) over time. The accuracy of recall and recognition are (9) their best immediately (10) encoding the information, declining at first rapidly, then gradually. The longer the

5、 delay, the more likely it is that information obtained after the event will interfere (11) the original memory, which reduces (12) .The paper says (13) interviews or media reports can create such (14) . People are particularly susceptible to having their memories (15) when the passage of time allow

6、s the original memory to (16) , and will be most susceptible if they repeat the (17) as fact.Witnesses may see or read information after the event, then (18) it to produce something (19) than what was experienced, significantly reducing the reliability of their memory of an event or offender, Furthe

The official case for academic mobility is now often stated in impressive terms as a fundamental nece

8、ssity for economic and social progress in the world, and debated in the corridors of Europe, but it is certainly nothing new. Serious students were always ready to go abroad in search of the most stimulating teachers and the most famous academies; in search of the purest philosophy, the most effecti

9、ve medicine, the likeliest road to gold.Mobility of this kind meant also mobility of ideas, their transference across frontiers, their simultaneous impact upon many groups of people. The point of learning is to share it, whether with students or with colleagues; one presumes that only eccentrics hav

10、e no interest in being credited with a startling discovery, or a new technique. It must also have been reassuring to know that other people in other parts of the world were about to make the same discovery or were thinking along the same lines, and that one was not quite alone, confronted by inquisi

11、tion, ridicule or neglect.In the twentieth century, and particularly in the last 20 years, the old footpaths of the wandering scholars have become vast highways. The vehicle which has made this possible has of course been the aeroplane, making contact between scholars even in the most distant immedi

12、ately feasible, and providing for the very rapid transmission of knowledge.Apart from the vehicle itself, it is fairly easy to identify the main factors which have brought about the recent explosion in academic movement. Some of these are purely quantitative and require no further mention, there are

13、 far more centers of learning, and a far greater number of scholars and students.In addition one must recognize the very considerable multiplication of disciplines, particularly in the sciences, which by widening the total area of advanced studies has produced an enormous number of specialists whose

14、 particular interests are precisely defined. These people would work in some isolation if they were not able to keep in touch with similar isolated groups in other countries.Frequently these specializations lie in areas where very rapid developments are taking place, and also where the research need

15、ed for developments is extremely costly and takes a long time. It is precisely in these areas that the advantages of collaboration and sharing of expertise appear most evident. Associated with this is the growth of specialist periodicals, which enable scholars to become aware of what is happening in

16、 different centers of research and to meet each other in conferences and symposia. From these meetings come be personal relationships which are at the bottom of almost all formalized schemes of cooperation, and provide them with their most satisfactory stimulus.The writer thinks that the growth of s

17、pecialist societies and periodicals has helped scholars to（）Acut down research costs.Bkeep up with current developments.Cspend less time travelling.Ddevelop their ideas more quickly.3.Text 4About two thousand years ago, the Celts were still in their primitive society and Britain was still covered wi

18、th dense forests and swamps. They knew nothing of a written language, although they could utter different sounds to exchange simple ideas. But the Celts created their own civilization of which the most shining example was the historical Stonehenge in Wiltshire. The Stonehenge, still in existence now

19、, was a circular arrangement of monoliths built by the ancient Britons for purposes still unknown to modern historians. The Celtic language didn’t disappeared completely, either. Some of the Celtic words or sounds were later assimilated into the English language. Some people in Scotland and Wa

20、les now still speak a language of Celtic origin. It is believed that the Celts were related with the ancient people in what is now France and they, perhaps, offered some help in the struggle to resist Julius Caesar when he invaded France. The Roman army, commanded by Julius Caesar, invaded England i

21、n the first century B. C. In the first Century A. D. , the Romans went across the English Channel and invaded Britain for the second time. They did not meet with much resistance on the part of the natives and soon got possession of what is now known as England by driving many of the native Celts to

22、mountainous Scotland and Wales.The Romans brought other things with them besides their swords. They introduced their Roman civilization into England. They built towns, temples, theatres and fane buildings, better ones than the Britons had ever dreamed of. They drained marshes, cleared away forests,

23、built roads and taught the Britons to cultivate their land in a better way. They introduced a system of organized government in towns, which usually took on names ending in shire. They remained in England for about 350 years until 410 A. D. when the Germanic races started invading Rome. The invasion

24、 made it necessary to withdraw the Roman soldiers from England to defend their home country. The island of Britain was again returned to the control of the native inhabitants.But the natives had been ruled and protected so long by the Roman troops that they did not know how to protect themselves, th

25、e island, therefore, became a tempting and easy prey to the tribes within easy reach. Invaders from Ireland and Scotland began to plunder and kill the weak and defenseless Britons in England. The Britons hardly knew what to do and they, in despair, asked the Romans to send back their soldiers to pro

26、tect them Rome could not do this as she had more serious business on hand. Just at this time, a band of newcomers landed in the southern part of England, in what is now the county of Kent. These newcomers were known in history as the Jutes, Angles, and Saxons who had come from Northern Europe. They

27、were aggressive rovers and pirates ready to plunder or to fight. To them the Britons turned for assistance. They asked the newcomers to join in the war against their fierce neighbors. The result was a victory for the combined Britons and Anglo-Saxons.The text is mainly about（）AHow the Celts' lan
