Jane slammed the door of the log cabin (小木屋) raced toward the Indiana woods. Mother and Father insited that Jane go to school and learn to read. It was September of 1825, and Jane wanted to help on the farm like her brothers. Therefore, she told her parents “No!” and refused to learn to read.

Jane scooped (捧起) up her long skirts and splashed (溅起水花) through a small stream. Running helped her collect her thoughts, so she ran for what seemed like hours. She dashed around a tree and wasn’t paying attention. As a result, she tripped (绊倒) over a pair of long legs stretched out in the grass.

The legs belonged to her neighbor, Abe Lincoln. Abe was leaning (斜靠) against a tree reading a book. He smiled, stood up, and extended his arm to help Jane up.

Jane recognized Abe and knew what a hard-worker he was. But she also heard he was not like the other sixteen-year-old boys in Perry County. Abe was different because he spent all of his spare time reading books.

“Why are you running so fast?” Abe asked. “Are you hurt?”

Jane frowned (皱眉). “No, I’m all right,” she said. “I’m running because I’m upset. My parents want me to learn to read, and I told them no!”

Abe looked down at his book and then at Jane. “Reading can change your life,” he said quietly. Meet me here tomorrow, and I’ll prove to you how important reading is.”

Jane met Abe the next afternoon. He showed her a book about George Washington. One of his favourite teachers had donated it to him, and he had read it many times.

Abe began to read aloud while Jane listened carefully. He read about Washington and what a great leader he was. He read about Washington’s courage and bravery.

“Someday I want to be as courageous as George Washington,” said Abe proudly. “Someday I will be president of the United States, too.”

“I believe you will make a great president,” said Jane. “Look at what a good leader you are now. You’ve completely changed my mind about reading!”

Years later, Jane opened her newspaper and read the good news. Her friend, Abe Lincoln, had an elected President of the United States. She smiled and thought about the day she tripped over long legs. That was the day that changed her life.

1.Instead of going to school, Jane preferred to _______.

A.teach herself by reading books B.run through the Indiana woods

C.give a helping hand to her family D.play with her neighbor Abe Lincoln

2.Jane changed her mind about reading, because ______.

A.Abe shared the book and thoughts B.Abe’s teacher donated a book

C.Jane’s parents forced her to study D.Jane tripped over Abe’s long legs

4.The passage is probably from ______.

Who would win in a competition to memorize numbers, a chimp(猩猩) or a teenager?The teenager? Think again.Scientists have proved that chimps perform better than human beings when it comes to this kind of problem. We may have to rethink what we believe about human memory.

Memory is our ability to learn something, save it and recall it when needed.Our memories are important to our sense of self, our personalities, and our ability to understand the world

Scientists say that there are different types of memory.There is short-term memory and long-term memory.Your short-term memory saves information for a few seconds or a few minutes.For example, the time it takes to compare the prices of a few items(物件)in a store.Long-term memory involves the information you try hard to keep, because it's meaningful to you.(an example is data about family and friends).And then there is visual (视觉的) memory and sound memory.But these are not hard and fast: scientists argue a lot about the nature of memory.

Scientists have also found that people memorize things in different ways.Some memorize better with the help of pictures.Others are helped more by sounds.One thing s for sure.If you can combine different kinds of memory together, you will remember a lot So why not try pictures with English words? At the same time, listen to recordings of the same group of words.This may help when it comes to memorizing it.

Imagination and association can be useful, too.By imagination, scientists mean to picture a word in your mind.Association means relating the word to something you have already known.
