20.A【分析】这是一篇说明文。短文向读者介绍了在日常生活中，如何提高记忆，如何帮助人们平时少忘事提出了一些常识性的策略。【16题详解】由“Butevenifyou'renotamemorygenius,therearethingsyoucantry”可知，但是即使你不是一个记忆天才，你也可以尝试一些事情。所以小题1不仅承接上句意思，也是下面副标题段落的主题句，起到总说的作用。故E选项“以下这些常识性的策略能帮你平时少忘事”符合句意。故E选项切题。【17题详解】由“Forexample,alwayshangyourcarkeysonahookorputtheminthesameplacebythefrontdoor”可知，把车钥匙挂在钩子上，或者放在前门的同一个地方。所以小题2要总说“把东西放在固定的位置才能更方便你找到它们”然后在举例分说。故F选项“把东西放在固定的位置才能更方便你找到它们”符合句意。故F选项切题。【18题详解】由“Ifyouneedtoremembertophoneafriendlaterintheday,putanoteonthephonesothatyouwillnoticeitduringtheday”可知，要提醒自己给朋友打电话，可以写个提醒字条贴在电话上，看到字条就能提醒自己了。再由“Embracethistechnology”拥抱这个技术吧。可知，小题2要总结性地说明这个方法还是很奏效。故D选项“这个简单的行为可以帮助你提升20%的记忆力”符合句意。故D选项切题。【19题详解】由“Yourcellphonecomeswithabuilt-incalendaryoucansettoremindyouofwhatyouneedtododuringtheday.”可知，你的手机有一个内置日历，你可以设置它来提醒你白天需要做什么。所以小题4要说明列出待做事项的作用。故C选项“待做事项清单也是让生活更有规划、有组织的关键”符合句意。故C选项切题。【20题详解】由最后一段“Researchindicatesthatmostpeopleneedsixtoeighthoursofsleep(that’satleasttwocyclesofdeepsleep)pernight,fortheirbraintogothroughthechemicalchangesneededforlong-termmemory.Agoodsleepcanmakeallthedifferenceinyourbrainpowerandthereforegivesyouasharpenedmind.”可知，研究表明，大多数人每晚需要6到8小时的睡眠(也就是至少两个周期的深度睡眠)，这样他们的大脑才能经历长期记忆所需的化学变化。良好的睡眠可以使你的脑力发生很大的变化，从而使你的思维更加敏锐。所以本段主要在告诉读者要有良好的睡眠也就是小题5本段的标题所要表述的内容。故A选项“良好的睡眠”符合句意。故A选项切题。【点睛】根据文章展开的结构形式是解决7选5题型的重要的解题方法。7选5题型，多数短文的结构，都是按照总--分的结构展开的，而短文习惯于在总说段落设空处，以此引出下文的小标题。所以在选择设空处的选项时，应该选择能够总领下文的句子。由“Butevenifyou'renotamemorygenius,therearethingsyoucantry”可知，但是即使你不是一个记忆天才，你也可以尝试一些事情。所以小题1不仅承接上句意思，也是下面副标题段落的主题句，起到总说的作用。故E选项“以下这些常识性的策略能帮你平时少忘事”符合句意。故小题1的正确选项为E选项。三、阅读理解19.Howcanwereducetherisk?Therearefourgeneralapproachestodealingwithvolcanic（火山似的）dangers.Wecantrytokeepthedangerfromoccurring—oftenanimpossibletask.Wecantrytochangeitspathorreduceitsimpactonexistingdevelopment.Wecantakestepstoprotectfuturedevelopment.Wecanalsodoourbesttohavedisasterresponseplansinplacebeforetheyareneeded.RemovingtheThreatClearly,thereisnowaytostopaneruption.Wecan,however,attempttoreducetheeruption’seffectsbystrengtheningstructures,forexample,buildingprotectiveworkssuchaswallstomakelava（熔岩）flowawayfromdevelopedareas.Sucheffortscanbeandhavebeensuccessful,butareoflimiteduseinalarge-scale（范围）eruption.PlanningfortheFutureProtectingfuturedevelopmentfromvolcanicdangersisasimpletask.Beforebuildinghouses,weshouldjudgetherisk.Iftheriskseemstoogreat,asaferlocationshouldbefound.Thistypeofplanningisveryeffective,butalltoooften,peoplearedrawntothelush（葱郁的）,rollinglandofaquietvolcano.DisasterPreparedness（预案）Whenavolcanocomestolife,afewweeksmaynotbeenoughtoavoidatragedy.Planningisthekeytosavinglives.Wellbeforethewarningsignsoccur,peoplemustbeeducatedaboutvolcanicdangers.Escapeplansmustbeinplace.Communicationbetweenscientists,officials,themedia,andthegeneralpublicshouldbepracticed.Emergencymeasuresmustbethoughtoutandagreedupon.Ifyoudoubttheimportanceoftheseefforts,takeanotherlookatpastvolcanictragedies,suchastheeruptionofNevadodelRuiz.CommunicationfailuresleftthetownofArmerounpreparedforescape.Whenadeadlymudflowcamedowntheslope（斜坡）,21,000people—90percentofthetown’speople—died.9.Thepassageisintendedfor_______.A.thegeneralpublic
