It isnt competition in a traditional sense because there are no goals to be scored and no prize. Perhaps the ecological definitio

34、 with jugs24（8分） A new study from brain researchers helps explain how the human brain evolved, or changed over time, to permit people to speak and write.Michael Ullman, the lead researcher, a professor at Georgetown University Medical School in Washington, DC, has been studying language learning for

35、 more than 20 years.Ullman says his research shows that the human brain does not have a special area or system for making language. Over time we have simply reused or co-opted(指派) parts of our brain for language. And those parts, he says, are ancient-older even than humans themselves.This study exam

36、ines the theoretical framework(准则) that language is learned, stored and processed in two ancient learning and memory systems in the brain.Ullman, Hamrick and the rest of the team looked at data from 16 other studies on language. They found that people learn language using two memory systems: declara

37、tive and procedural. Memorizing vocabulary, for example, is a declarative memory process. But learning grammar is, mostly, a procedural memory process.Declarative memory, in humans at least, is what we think of as learning memory, such as, Oh, remember what you said last night or things like that. A

38、nd procedural motor memory is what we often call motor memory such as how you learn to ride a bicycle. Or, Ullman adds, These procedural memory skills become so deeply leaned that we are no longer aware that we are doing them.However, Ullman explains that the two long-term memory systems can share t

39、asks. And, he ads, the adult brain uses the systems to learn language a bit differently than a childs brain.Adult language learners of a second language may use their declarative memory for using grammar patterns. They think about it purposefully. For a child, the grammar may come more naturally. Th

40、ey dont have to think about the grammar rules before speaking.In addition to language learners, Ullmans study could help people who have a brain injury that affects speaking and writing. This knowledge can also help those who have learning disabilities such as dyslexia(阅读障碍). People with dyslexia ha

41、ve difficulty recognizing words and symbols accurately.1、How did Ullman study humans memory systems?ABy examining the brain with his team.BBy studying language learning over years.CBy comparing different languages year after year.DBy referring to data from other studies on language.2、Which of the fo

42、llowing is an example of motor memory?ALearning to make a model plane.BRemembering the grammar patternsCRepeating what you heard.DMemorizing what you read.3、What does the underlined word it refer to?ADeclarative memory.BAn adult language learner.CUsing grammar patterns.DA second language.4、Whats the

43、 main idea of the text?AUllman has advanced our language understanding.BA new research helps people learn a new language.CLearning memory is more active than motor memory.DHuman beings learn language in pre human area of brain.25（10分）Flaubert had it that “one way of tolerating existence is to lose o

44、neself in literature as in an unending party”It turns out that reading doesnt only help us to tolerate existence，but actually lengthens it.A recent study by Yale University researchers，published online in the journal Social Science & Medicine，concluded that “book readers experienced a 20 percent red

45、uction in the risk of death over the 12 years of followup compared to nonreaders”The data was obtained from the study sponsored by the National Institute on Aging.The study looked at 3,635 subjects，all older than 50，whom the researchers divided into three groups：those who didnt read books，those who

46、read up to 3.5 hours a week and those who read more than 3.5 hours a week.The findings were remarkable：on average，book readers survived almost two years longer than those who didnt crack open a book.The more the subjects read，the longer they lived，but as little as 30 minutes a day was still benefici

47、al in terms of survival.Accounting for factors such as education level，income and health status，the study found that those who read more than 3.5 hours weekly were 23 percent less likely to die during that 12year period.Those who read up to 3.5 hoursan average of a half hour a daywere 17 percent les

48、s likely.“In other words，just like a healthy diet and exercise，books appear to promote a significant survival advantage，” the authors concluded.Why or how thats_the_case remains unclear；the research showed only an association between book reading and longevity，not a causal relationship.But the findi

49、ngs are not so surprising.Other recent research showed that reading novels appears to increase both brain connectivity and sympathy.1、Why does the author mention Flauberts words in the first paragraph?ATo stress the value of reading.BTo compare reading with a party.CTo introduce the study on reading

50、.DTo support the findings of the study.2、From the text，what can we learn about the study?ANo similar study on reading has been carried out.BThe process of the study lasted more than ten years.CIt shows readers live two years longer than nonreaders.DIt shows time spent on reading increases ones love

51、for it.3、What do the underlined words“thats the case”probably mean?AReading books enables people to live longer.BReading is similar to a healthy diet and exercise.CReading books is closely associated with longevity.DReading increases brain connectivity and sympathy.4、Where can we most probably read

For example, sometimes your boat goes through a particularly difficult rapid and you find yourself thrown out of the boat and into the water. When this happens, sometimes you get caught in a 7

The natural tendency is to crazily attempt to swim 8 , but in this situation, the water is circulating backward, 9 you are actually swimming against the current. This is very dangerous; it is quite possible to 10 yourself and be unable

Usually, this is enough for you to be 13 “spit out” of the hole.A 14 situation came up in a recent coaching meeting I had with a hig
