21、Language students often think they have memory problems. They worry because they can’t remember words. In fact, the problem usually isn’t with their memory. The problem is with how they study.

To remember words better, you need to understand how memory works. There are two kinds of memory: short term and long term. When you see, hear, or read something, it goes first into short-term memory. But short-term memory lasts for only a few seconds. You will only remember something longer if it goes into long-term memory. Your long term memory is like a very big library with many, many books. And like a library, it’s organized(有条理的). When you put away a book—or memory—you can’t just leave it anywhere. You have to choose a place where you can find it again.

How can you do this with vocabulary? The answer is to work with the word and think about the word in new ways. You can do this by writing new sentences that include it. Even better, you can invent a little story about the word, with people or places that you know. Another way is to make a picture in your mind with the word. For example, if the word is “height”, you can think of the tallest person you know and try to guess his or her height. All of these activities are good ways to think about words. They make the meaning of words stronger in your long-term memory. And they give a way to find a word when you need it.

【1】In the writer’s opinion, students can’t remember words because ________.

A．they are too worried

B．they don’t use a proper way

C．they have memory problems

D．they don’t like to study

【2】The underlined words “long-term” means ________ in Chinese.

B．is like a very big lake with lots of fishes

C．is like a very big library with many, many books

D．is bad for students’ study

A．reading as often as possible

B．writing emails to the people you know

C．taking many photos about them

D．making pictures in your mind with the words

A．how to improve ways to remember words

22、   Almost every Chinese person can recite(背诵) the two lines of the famous poem, “Every grain on the plate comes from hard work ”. But sadly, many of us don’t actually get the real meaning of these lines: Don’t waste food.

A CCTV program reported that the food Chinese people throw away every year is enough to feed 200 million people for a year. Do we have too much food? Absolutely not. According to the UN World Food Program, there were 925 million hungry people around the world in 2011, especially in developing countries. Six million children die of hunger every year.

Chinese people are well-known for being friendly and generous. Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food on the table. Luckily, a number of people have realized the importance of saving food. What should we do in our daily lives to waste less food?

1. Don’t order too much in a restaurant. Only order as much as you want to eat. If you cannot eat all the food you ordered, take the rest of it home.

2.Don’t leave any food in your bowls, while having meals.

3.Keep an eye on what food you have at home. Don’t buy too much, especially for vegetables and fruit.

【1】What’s the real meaning of the underlined sentence?

A.春种一粒粟，秋收万颗籽。 B.谁知盘中餐，粒粒皆辛苦。

C.吏禄三百石，岁晏有余粮。 D.足蒸暑土气，背灼炎天光。

【2】According to the UN report, how many hungry people were there in 2011?

A.6 million. B.925 million. C.200 million. D.725 million.

【3】What should we do to waste less food?

A.Order more food in a restaurant. B.Every time you eat, leave some food in your bowls.

C.Take all the food you ordered home. D.Don’t store too much food like vegetables and fruit.

【4】What’s the main idea of this passage?

A.Don’t waste food. B.Chinese people are friendly and generous.

C.We can’t die of hunger. D.Every grain is grown by farmers.

23、   Are you shy? If you are, you are not alone. In fact, close to 50 percent of people are shy. Almost 80 percent of people feel shy at some point in their lives. These days, shyness is becoming more and more common. Now, scientists are trying to understand shyness. They have some interesting ideas about why people are shy.

Is it possible to be born shy? Many scientists say yes. They say 15 to 20 percent of babies behave shyly. These babies are a little quieter and more watchful than other babies. Interestingly, these shy babies usually have shy parents. As a result, scientists think that some shyness is genetic.

Family size might cause people to be shy as well. Scientists at Harvard University studied shy children. They found that 66 percent of them had older brothers and sisters. As a result, they became shy. At the same time, children with no brothers and sisters may be shy as well. Growing up alone, they often play by themselves. They are not able to learn the same social skills as children from big families.

You may also be shy because of where you were born. When scientists studied shyness in different countries, they found surprising differences. In Japan, most people said they were shy. But in Israel, only one of three people said so. What explains the difference? One scientist says the Japanese and Israelis have different opinions of failure (失败). In Japan, when people do not succeed, they feel bad about themselves. They blame (责备) themselves for their failure. In Israel, the opposite is true. Israelis often blame failure on outside reasons, such as family, teachers, friends, or bad luck. In Israel, freedom of opinion and risk (风险) taking are strongly supported. This may be why Israelis worry less about failure and are less shy.

For shy people, it can be difficult to make friends, speak in class, and even get a good job. But scientists say you can get over your shyness. They suggest trying new things and practicing conversation. And don't forget — if you are shy, you are not the only one.

【1】What can you learn from the passage?

A.Most little babies are born shy and quiet.

B.If you are shy now, you will be shy forever.

C.Most Israeli people are shy of expressing opinions.

D.Many shy children have older brothers and sisters.

【2】What can cause shyness according to the passage?

A.Genetics, grow-ups and birthplace. B.Family size, grow-ups and failure.

C.Genetics, family size and birthplace. D.Genetics, family size and failure.

【3】What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?

A.To encourage people to study shyness more. B.To introduce the reasons why people are shy.

C.To explain why scientists study shyness. D.To show why shyness makes people fail.

24、Dear editor,
