remember it. you just 43 your valuable time. maybe you have already 44 some clever ways to keep yourself from forgetting.one dependable aid that does help you remember what you study is to have a 45 purpose or reason for reading. you remember better what you read when you know why youre reading.why does a clerk in a store go away and 46 you when your reply to her 47 to help is “no, thank you. im just looking?” both you and she know that if you arent sure what you want, you are not 48 to find it. but suppose you say 49 , “yes, thank you. i want a pair of sun glasses.” she says, “right this way, please.”its quite the same with your studying. if you choose a book at random, just looking for nothing 50 , you may end up with just that-nothing. but if you do know what you want, you are almost sure to get it. your reasons will 51 ; they will include reading or studying “to find out more about”, “to understand the reasons for” and “to find out how”.this is the way it 52 . before you start to study, you say to yourself 53 like this. “im reading this article to find out why stephen vincent benet happened to write about america.” or, “im going to skim this story to see what life was like in medieval england.” because you know 54 you are reading or studying, you 55 the information to your purpose and remember it better.reading is not one single activity. at least two important 56 go on at the same time. as you read, you 57 ideas rapidly and accurately. but at the same time you express your own ideas to yourself as you 58 what you read. you have a kind of mental conversation with the author.if you expressed your ideas orally, they might sound like this: “yes, i agree. thats my opinion too.” or “ummm, i thought that sports record was 59 much earlier. id better check that date,” or “but there are some other facts to be considered!” you dont just sit there acquiring information; you are also 60 between facts and opinions. facts can be checked by evidence while opinions are ones own personal reactions.41. a. realizeb. forgetc. regretd. memorize42. a. mistakeb. decisionc. difference d. contribution43. a. seizeb. save c. ownd. waste44. a. rememberedb. uncoveredc.

be playing games live with others elsewhere in the world, updating their status on social media, texting friends or looking for the latest app to download to their tablets or smart phones. this worried martin strott, headmaster of the old hall school in wellington, in the west of england. he was so concerned that he challenged his students to take part in a week of digital detox. strott told the local newspaper, the shropshire star, that he encourages the pupils to have a good knowledge of the computer from a young age, but is concerned that too much screen time will affect the development of their social skills. he said that this over-reliance on digital devices “erodes family time and theyre missing out on messages from body language and facial expressions from those around them”. according to the headmaster, the parents are happy with the movement. but what about the children? nine-year-old fred usually spends around two hours on his gadgets at home after school and around 12 hours on weekends. for him, the digital detox experience was “really hard”. fred spent it playing outside, especially basketball. he said that hell probably engage in different activities from now on but he did miss his phone and online games. the idea of keeping children away from their tech for a while to prevent addiction is not particularly new. there have been similar movements in the us. but are they effective in the long run? well, even if kids go back to their gadgets, the hope is that at least theyll think about how they use their time. what about you: do you spend too many hours hooked on your digital devices?61. according to the passage, children are hooked on computers because they can do the following things except _.a. searching for the newest app and install them to their tablets or smart phones.b. developing their social skills by having some online conversations.c. playing games live with people from other placesd. releasing some new information about their status on social media 62. which of the following words can replace the word “erodes” in para 2?a. enrichesb. saves c. adjustsd. ruins63. according to the article, where else can you find digital detox movements? a. in asian countries b. in the usc. in japan d. in china 64. why did the headmaster challenge his students to take part in digital detox?a. because he wanted to encourage his students to have a good knowledge of computer.b. because he wanted them to learn more about body language and facial expressions.c. because he was pushed by many worried parents.d. because he hoped to transfer childrens attention to something meaningful.65. which of the following statements is true according to the passage?a. the headmaster thinks that children shouldnt touch computer until they are old enough. b. children welcome the movement as they will have more time to engage in more activities.c. parents believe that the movements are very effective in the long run.d. it is hoped that kids may give thoughts to their ways of spending time.bwhen a dog loses a leg, the animal eventually figures out the best way to get around on three legs. in a short time, the dog learns to deal with its physical disability.now, scientists have developed robots that behave in much the same way.we can find robots everywhere. robots build cars, play chess and can clean your house. they may someday drive your car, too.two robots, named spirit and opportunity, were sent to mars on a mission to explore the red planet.jeff clune is a computer scientist with the university of wyoming. he says robots also help people in natural disasters.robots are deployed in search and rescue operations following an earthquake. they may someday also be used to examine the wreckage of a nuclear accident, like the one in fukushima, japan.mr. clune says robots can be sent to a lot of places said to be unsafe.“the problem is that all of those types of situations and environment are extremely unpredictable and dangerous. and it is very likely that robots and humans in those situations become damaged.”he and other scientists are developing technology so that robots will continue operating after the first sign of injury. they want the machines to have the ability to make changes and continue performing until they can be repaired.mr. clune and researchers in france have added one more operation to the skill set of robots working under difficult conditions. they say they programmed a hexapod robot, one with six legs, and a robotic arm to learn how to deal with injury. their findings were reported in the journal “nature”.mr. clune said that once the robots become damaged, they use their intuition and knowledge of how their body works to find a way to deal with the damage.he says the robots are also programmed with child-like curiosity. in other words, they are always asking questions and looking for answers. the whole process takes about a minute for the robots to find a way to overcome damage.66. at the beginning of the passage, the writer mentions dogs to _.a. provide examples of how animals deal with unexpected injuryb. show how scientists get inspiration from dogs to develop technologyc. introduce the topic in a more attractive wayd. suggest that scientists shouldnt ignore the similarity between dogs and robots.67. according to the passage, nowadays robots cant _.a. play chess or clean the houseb. be sent on a mission to explore on the marsc. help people in searchandrescueoperationsfollowinganearthquaked. examinethewreckageofanuclearaccident68. why are mr.clune and other scientists devoted to developing the technology?a. they want to succeed in programming robots with child-like curiosity.b. theyexpect to enable robotsto continueworkingdespite injury under difficult conditions.c. they intend to make robots which can be sent to a lot of places said to be unsafe.d. they are determined to design a more powerful robot for mars exploration.69. now scientists have developed robots that, once damaged, can _.a. rely on their functions to figure out a way to handle the emergency.b. figure out the best way to get around in a short timec. spend about a second finding a way to overcome damaged. maintain their child-like curiosity and keep asking people around for solutionscsome of the worlds most significant problems never hit headlines. one example comes from agriculture. food riots （暴动）and hunger make news. but the trend lying behind these matters is rarely talked about. this is the decrease in the growth in production of some of the worlds major crops. a new study by the university of minnesota and mcgill university in montreal looks at where, and how far, this decline is occurring.the authors take a vast number of data points for the four most important crops: rice, wheat, corn and soyabeans. they find that on between 24% and 39% of all harvested areas, the improvement in production that took place before the 1980s slowed down in the 1990s and 2000s.there are two worrying features of the slowdown. one is that it has been particularly sharp in the worlds most populous countries, india and china. their ability to feed themselves has been an important source of relative stability both within the countries and on world food markets. that self-sufficiency (自给自足) cannot be taken for granted if productions continue to slow down.second, production growth has been lower in wheat and rice than in corn and soyabeans. this is problematic because wheat and rice are more important as foods, accounting for around half of all
