Drawing might help you think
When you're sitting in class, have you ever drawn pictures in the margins of your notebooks?
If so, your teacher might have told you 1.(stop). Many people think of doodling(涂鸦) as a distraction(精神涣散) from more important things. But it might be just the opposite.
One study shows that doodling may help you remember things you hear. In 2009 researchers asked two groups of people to listen to a phone message. One group 2. (encourage) to doodle, but the other was not. Neither group knew that it would be asked to remember information from the message. But the group that doodled remembered 29 percent more.
Other people 3. (suggest)other uses for drawing. Jesse Prinz, a professor who studies doodling, says it can help you think creatively. Walking away from a problem to draw
might actually help you solve it. When you come back, you 4. (have)a fresh perspective and figure out an answer more quickly.
Two years ago, an author named Sunni Brown 5. (write)a book on doodling. She argues that doodling is a tool that can help people think. She admits that people see doodling
as doing nothing, but she wants to change that. In fact, she runs a business that helps companies
improve organization and planning through doodling. Brown 6. (believe)doodling is helpful because it incorporates(整合)many ways of learning. You lean in four ways: seeing, hearing, reading or writing, and through movement. The more ways you use, the better you learn.
And when you doodle while you 7. (listen )to a lecture, you use all four.
You might think that being good at 8. ( draw)is important for doodling. But if the point of doodling is to help you think, then it doesn't matter what the picture looks like. Even if you're not an artist, doodling can help you. So next time you need help focusing, pick up a pen and doodle away!
1.to stop 2.was encouraged 3.have suggested 4.will have 5.wrote 6.believes 7.are listening 8.drawing 【解析】本文介绍了涂鸦的作用。有人认为涂鸦会使人精神涣散，但另一部分人认为涂鸦会使人有创造性。教授Jesse Prinz在实验中证明了涂鸦的作用。Su...科目：初中英语 来源：甘肃省白银市2018年中考英语试卷 题型：单选题

One day Vimala and her new friend. Mary, were playing at school. Mary was a very quiet and shy girl but Vimala liked her. While jumping, Mary’s glasses fell off and broke. Just then the bell rang and they had to hurry to their science class.
“Oh dear, I'm going to be as blind as a bat. But we'd better hurry. It's Miss Lee's class, "said Maray.
At the start of the lesson, Miss Lee explained how to do the experiment to produce large eye crystals. Then she started to question the class. Nobody dared to give a wrong answer because Miss Lee was a very strict teacher Miss Lee held up a clamp(夹具) and said, "What do we use it for? What do we call it? All the girls looked down, while she looked at their heads for one to pick on. "Mary?" she finally asked.
Mary was sitting at the back of the class. She stood up and peered at Miss Lee, but she could not see clearly what the teacher was holding. She was nervous a bit and did not answer.
Miss Lee repeated her question. This time she spoke more slowly and there was anger in her voice.
"What is this used for ?" she asked
Vimala saw storm clouds climbing up to Miss Lee's face. She knew that the storm was about to burst on Mary, so she put up her hand. Miss Lee paid no attention to her and stared through narrowed eyes at Mary, waiting for an answer.
Mary did not know what to say. She looked to her left and right for help. Too seared to say out that she couldn’t see clearly, Mary hoped that if she kept quiet Miss Lee would ask somebody else.
Vimala guessed what was wrong, so she decided to take a risk. She jumped to her feet and said, "Excuse me. Miss Lee. Mary broke her glasses just before the lesson started. I don't think she can see the clamp clearly. "Then she sat down, praying (祈祷)that the ceiling would not fall on her.
“Oh!” Miss Lee said, a little surprised. She had thought that Mary was refusing to answer.
Now that she understood, her anger faded away. “Thank you, Vimala.” she said Then she turned
to Mary and said, “Come and look at this.”
Mary left her chair and went to the front of the class.
“It’s a clamp.” she said. "We can put it on a metal stand(支架) and use it to hold things in place.”
"Well, you got it right at last. "Miss Lee said with a brief smile. But you'd better not do any experiments until your glasses have been repaired. You can watch Vimala while she does the experiment.
The storm clouds disappeared. The smile disappeared from Miss Lee's face and she continued with the lesson. Vimala winked at Mary who peered at her and smiled weakly.
1.What's the matter with Mary’s glasses?
A. They were lost. B. They were broken C. They were left at home
2.Miss Lee was __________ teacher.
A. an English B. a science C. a math
3.Why couldn't Mary answer Miss Lee's question?
A. Because she didn't know the answer
B. Because she couldn't hear what Miss Lee was saying
C. Because she couldn’t see what the teacher was holding
4.The sentence "Vimala saw storm clouds climbing up to Miss Lee's face.” means Vimala found_______
A. the sky was cloudy B. a heavy storm was coming C. Miss Lee was becoming angry

A. Mary was quiet and shy and also as blind as a bat

请阅读下面短文，在短文后表格中的空白处填上适当的単词(注意:每空1个单词)。
When we are talking to someone, we tend to change someone else’s mind to our way of thinking.And we may often find it difficult to do that, So here are five tips on how to change someone’s mind.
The first one is never to turn the conversation into an argument. It should be a conversation whereyou show your opinions and the facts that you’ve collected. By showing them the facts, we want to tell other people that we are right. But emotionally, they may not totally agree with what you say. So when you are trying to change someone’s mind, try to keep it as a conversation and not an argument.
The second tip is never to say that you are wrong. If someone makes a statement that you think iswrong, it’s better to point it out by saying, “I thought otherwise but I might be wrong, let’s look at the facts.” The key is to say that you might be wrong, not that you are wrong. This opens up the other person to look at the data again and shows them that you’re not bullheaded (顽 固 的) and that you’re not going to change your opinion. You’re showing them that you are open to new ideas and this is super important in changing someone else’s mind to your way of thinking.
Tip number three is to get the other person saying yes as fast as possible. You may begin your conversation on hobbies that you guys have, something that they’re crazy about, something that gets them saying yes. Because the more that you get them to say yes now, the more likely they are to say yes in the future. A conversation like this will get them to start to like you and maybe even more open up to ideas that you have. It builds up trust between the two of you.
Tip number four is to let the other person do a great amount of talking. If you let them talk more, you’re going to show that you actually care about their opinions and ideas, which will earn their respect in the end. By listening to them, you’re going to create a friendly relationship and build trust. So when you express your opinions, they will also show a willingness to listen. Never interrupt them when they are talking. Just listen patienly with an open mind, encourage them to talk even more and more so that when it’s your tum to talk, they’ll listen and say nothing.
The last tip is to let the other person feel like the idea was theirs. It’s wiser to make suggestions and let someone else come to the conclusion, then they have a sense of pride that it’s their idea. Giving someone the data and letting them come to the conclusion let them feel like it is their idea and they are proud of it.
