Auditory cues help prey to figure out what kind of predators they meet.D. Vibration cues are reliable as predators can hardly stop vibrating.62. Which of the following top
5、ic might be talked about in the following paragraphs?A. Surviving Encounters with PredatorsB. Effective Ways to Find out PredatorsC. Distinct Characteristics of PredatorsD. Prey species and their behaviors(C)Search engines have changed the way we use the Internet, putting vast sources of infbnnation
6、 just a few clicks away. But Han ard professor of psychology Line Daniel Wegners recent research proves that websites and the Internet are changing much more than technology itself. They are changing the way our memories function. Wegners latest study shows that when people have access to search eng
7、ines, they remember fewer facts and less information because they know they can rely on “search” as a readily available shortcut.Wegner believes the new findings show that the Internet has become part of a transactivc memory source, a method by which our brains divide information. Transactivc memory
8、 exists in many fbnns, as when a husband relies on his wife to remember a relatives birthday. You dont have to remember everything in the world yourself. You just have to remember who knows it. Now computers and technology are becoming virtual extensions of our memory.Wegner conducted several experi
9、ments to demonstrate the phenomenon, using various forms of memory recall to test reliance on computers. In one experiment, participants demonstrated that they were more likely to think of computer terms like “Yahoo or Google” after being asked a set of difficult trivia questions. In another experim
10、ent, participants typed some statements into a computer and they were told the statements would be saved in specific folders. Next, they were asked to recall the statements. Finally, they were given cues to the wording and asked to name the folders where the statements were stored. The participants
11、proved better able to recall the folder locations than the statements themselves.Wegner admits that questions remain about whether dependence on computers will affect memories negatively: Nobody knows now what the effects of these tools arc on logical thinking.5 Students who have trouble remembering
12、 distinct facts, for example, may struggle to employ those facts in critical thinking. But he believes that the situation overall is beneficial, comparing dependence on computers to dependence on a mechanical hand or other prosthetic device.And even though we may not be using our memories to recall
13、distinct facts, we are still using them to consider where the facts are located and how to access them. We still have to remember things, Wegner explains, Were just remembering a different range of things. He believes his study will lead to further research into understanding computer dependence, an
14、d looks forward to tracing the extent of human interdependence with the computer world pinpointing the “movable dividing line between us and our computers in cyber networks.”Which of the following statements can be the best idea of the passage?A. Relying on technology has weakened our critical think
15、ing.B. People heavily depend on computer fbr storing information.C. Humans capacity fbr memory is much weaker than it was before.D. Computers and technology are reshaping the functions of our brain.63. The example of remembering a relatives birthday (in the 2nd paragraph) is used to.A. show that peo
16、ple who are closely related tend to have shared memoriesdemonstrate how people initially developed external sources of memoryB. illustrate the concept of a transactive memory source using a familiar situationemphasize the eflectiveness and accuracy of transactive memory sources64. From the experimen
17、t we know that when asked to provide facts that are not familiar to them people tend toA. think of specific information sourcesB. type into computer and remember themC. recall them from their deep memoriesD. link the unfamiliar facts to their experiences.65. Which of the following can be inferred fr
18、om the last paragraph?A. The more we rely on computer, the weaker our memory becomes.B. Reliance on computers does not necessarily reduce human memory.C. Computers have helped people to understand the memory system better.D. Researches should be done to reveal the side effect of computer dependence.
19、Section CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.Why You Wont ApologizeIn our relationships with others, its inevitable that weH hurt people from time
20、 to time, even though, in some cases, we dont mean to. 67 Research shows what those with high levels of social intelligence already know sincere apologies arc usually very effective at mending relationships that have been damaged by thoughtless acts. But all too often, we stubbornly refuse to apolog
21、ize, even when we know were in the wrong.An apology is an attempt to repair the damage weve done to a relationship. To do this, we need to imagine ourselves to be in the victims position and to show empathy (共情)fbr the pain we have caused the victim. Some researches have indicated that people with t
22、he personality of narcissism ( generally see no need to apologize when they have wronged another person. 68 When our friend points out that weve offended them, its easy to recall plenty of instances when theyd also hurt our feelingsso what are they getting so upset about?We all want to believe were
23、essentially good people. Accepting the fact that we,ve hurt someone we care about conflicts with our precious self-image. People who believe that personality is fixed are especially easily affected by the idea that an act of apology is a threat to their self-image. If personal characteristics stay t
24、he same, then, of course, hurting someone they care about is inconsistent (5一致)with their self-image as an essentially good person. In reality, of course, even good people sometimes do bad things. 69Sometimes people dont apologize because they dont believe it will do any good. This could come from t
25、he belief that some mistakes arc unforgivable. 70 Your sincere apology doesnt mean the victim ought to forgive you right away. It may still take time, but at least the act of making an apology gets the process of forgiveness started.A. However, its quite difficult to make a sincere apology.B. The ch
26、allenge then is finding a way to make things right again.C. There may also be unrealistic expectations about the process of forgiveness.D. But even fbr most normal people, it can be extremely difficult to feel sorry fbr those who have been offended. E. Understanding and accepting this fact of life c
27、an help ease our mind and thus help make an effective apology. F. Although apologizing can be hard to do, it is, in fact, the most effective approach to mending a broken relationship.IV. Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passa
28、ge in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Ever walked to the shops only to find, once there, youve completely forgotten what you went fbr? Or struggled to remember the name of an old friend? For years weve accepted that a forgetful brain is as much a part of aging as wrinkle
29、s and gray hair. But now a new book suggests that weve got it all wrong.According to The Secret Life of the Grown-up Brain by science writer Barbara Strauch, when it comes to the important things, our brains actually get better with age. In fact, she argues that some studies have found that our brai
30、n hits its peak between our 40s and 60s much later than previously thought.Furthermore, rather than losing many brain cells as we age, we keep them, and even produce new ones well into middle age. For years ils been assumed that brain, much like the body, declines with age. But the longest, largest
31、study into what happens to people as they age suggests otherwise.This continuing research has followed 6,000 people since 1956, testing them every seven years. It has found that on average, participants performed better on cognitive tests in their 40s and 50s than they had done in their 20s. Specifi
32、cally, older people did better on tests of vocabulary, verbal memory (how many words you can remember) and problem solving. Where they performed less well was number ability and perceptual speed how fast you can push a button when ordered. However, with more complex tasks such as problem-solving and
33、 language, we are at our best at middle age and beyond. In short, researchers are now coming up with scientific proof that we do get wiser with age.Neuroscientists are also finding that we are happier with aging. A recent US study found older people were much better at controlling and balancing thei
34、r emotions. It is thought that when wcrc younger wc need to focus more on the negative aspects of life in order to learn about the possible dangers in the world, but as wc get older weve learned our lessons and are aware that we have less time left in life: therefore, it becomes more important fbr u
