34、hoops, not because its really who you are, but because youve always done it and you will get reward for your performance.（你会看到你多年来是如何在这个圈中跳跃的，不是因为你是谁，而是因为你一直在做，你的表现会得到回报。）可知，作者认为，从某种程度上，我们的人生之路与海狮有相似之处，我们重复很多年做的事并不是出于本心，而是由于受到了客观因素的影响。有的人甚至一辈子都没有做过一件因自己想做而做的事。可知在观看海狮表演的过程中，作者领悟到了一个重要的人生哲理。故选C。【6题详解】

37、tice of students endlessly copying letters and sentences from a blackboard is a thing of the past.

39、the skill of writing by hand.Berninger and her colleagues conducted a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks - both on a computer and by hand.

40、 complete sentences and had a faster word production rate.In a more recent study, Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a students writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to know well they can write. “Spelling makes some of the thinking parts of the brain active which

41、 helps us access our vocabulary, word meaning and concepts. It is allowing our written language to connect with ideas.” Berninger said.Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe (转换) “those words in the mind written symbols on paper or keyboard and

42、screen,” the study said. Seeing the words in “minds eye” helps children not only to turn their ideas into words, says Berninger, but also to spot (发现) spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct then over time.“In our computer age, some people believe that we dont have to teach s

43、pelling because we have spell checks,” she said. “But until a child has a functional spelling ability of about a fifth grade level, they wont have the knowledge to choose the correct spelling among the options given by the computer.”8.

46、 translation from words into ideas.D. Spelling slows down finding exact words to express ideas.【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A【解析】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述的是：随着现代科技的发展，书写渐渐被人们所忽视。但是Berninger的研究表明，书写在现代教学中应该占有一席之地，因为加强拼写有助于学生的发展。【8题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段中The practice of students endlessly copying letters and sentences from a black

47、board is a thing of the past. With the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphone，writingby hand has become something of nostalgic skill（学生不停地从黑板上抄写字母和句子的做法已成为过去。随着电脑和智能手机等新技术的到来，手写已经成为一种怀旧的技能。）可知在教学中使用新技术使手写成为历史，故选C。【9题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段Berninger and her colleagues conducted a study that

48、looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks - both on a computer and by hand. The study, published in 2009, found that when writing with a pen and paper, participants wrote longer essays and more complete sentences and had a faster word production rate.（Berninger和她的同事进行了一项研究，

49、考察学生完成各种写作任务的能力，包括用电脑和手写。这项发表于2009年的研究发现，当参与者用笔和纸写字时，他们写的文章更长，句子更完整，单词生成速度更快。）可知 Berninger在2009年发表的研究集中在手写和电脑书写的区别上。故选D。【10题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段首句In a more recent study，Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a students writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to know well the

50、y can write（在最近的一项研究中，伯宁格研究了拼写在学生写作技能中所扮演的角色，发现孩子们的拼写能力与他们的写作能力息息相关。）可知，拼写能力与写作能力密切相关，最能体现拼写的作用。故选A。第二节（共5小题，每小题2分；满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空格的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Secrets of Top StudentsA professor of education who has made some studies of top students said that top grades do not always go to the brig
