Usually, we think older peoples memories become bad because their brains get weak. But a team of scientists at the University of Tubingen in Germany has a different idea.“The human brain works slower in old age,” said lead scientist Michael Ramscar, “but only because they have stored more information over time.”The findings are based on a series of computer simulations（模拟） of learning and memory.Scientist let the computers read a certain amount of words and learn new things each day. When the computer “reads”only so much, its performance on cognitive（认知） tests is similar of a young adult. But if the computer learned the experiences we might encounter（经历） over a lifetime, its perfection is similar to that of an older adult.Often it was slower because increased“experience” had caused the computer s database（数据库） to grow, giving it more data to process - which takes time. This is similar to old people.Imagine a person knows two peoples birthdays. Another person knows the birthdays of 2,000 people, but can only match the right person to the right birthday nine times out of 10. Can you say the first person has a better memory than the second person? The basic idea is that“The larger the library you have in your head, the longer it usually takes to find a particular word,” Benedict Carey, a science reporter for The New York Times, wrote in an article about the study.17 . The writer uses a question at the beginning to_.Aencourage readers to think of their neighborsBmake readers interested in the topicCprove that older people have bad memoriesDexplain why older people like asking questions18 . How did the scientists do their research?AThey interviewed old peopleBThey asked both young and old people the same questionsCThey used computers to simulate human learning and memoryDThey followed the experiences of a group of old people19 . According to the research, why do old people forget other peoples names easily?ABecause they have a very poor memoryBBecause they are too old to remember thingsCBecause their brains become weaker over timeDBecause there is too much information in their brains20 . What does the underlined word“similar”in the passage mean in Chinese?A协调的B相似的C奇怪的D迥异的21 . What would be the best title for the story?AWhy do old people have poor memories?BWhy do old peoples brains sore more information?CWhat is the human brains processing ability?DIs it better to be old or young?三、单词填空. 短文填空（每词1分，计10分）（根据语境、音标或单词提示，在每个空格内填入一个适当的单词，使短文完整，行文连贯。）Every day some people go to work by bus or by bike.
