Union is strength no matter when you’re facing difficulties or in a dilemma. Cooperation plays an important part in getting you out of trouble.

There was a time when I was too proud that I overlooked my classmate, refusing to work together with them. Therefore, it was no doubt that I was left alone, suffering from loneliness and failure. Unfortunately a teacher impressed on me the value of cooperation. From then on, I learned to help others and turn to my friends for the help whenever I had difficulty finish a task on my own. Surely cooperation made a great difference. Now I am getting well with my friends.

My experience has teach me that only if we attach great importance with cooperation, can we go beyond ourselves. As the saying go “United, we stand; divided, we fall.”

【题目】A new study shows students who write notes by hand during lectures perform better on exams than those who use laptops(笔记本电脑).

Students are increasingly using laptops for notetaking because of speed and legibility(清晰度).But the research has found laptop users are less able to remember and apply the concepts they have been taught.

Researchers performed experiments that aimed to find out whether using a laptop increased the tendency to make notes “mindlessly” by taking down word for word what the professors said.

In the first experiment,students were given either a laptop or pen and paper. They listened to the same lectures and were told to use their usual notetaking skills. Thirty minutes after the talk,they were examined on their ability to remember facts and on how well they understood concepts.

The researchers found that laptop users took twice as many notes as those who wrote by hand. However,the typists performed worse at remembering and applying the concepts. Both groups scored similarly when it came to memorizing facts.

The researchers' report said,“While more notes are beneficial,if the notes are taken mindlessly,as is more likely the case on a laptop,the benefit disappears.”

In another experiment aimed at testing longterm memory,students took notes as before but were tested a week after the lecture. This time,the students who wrote notes by hand performed significantly better on the exam.

These two experiments suggest that handwritten notes are not only better for immediate learning and understanding,but that they also lead to superior revision in the future.

【1】 More and more students favour laptops for notetaking because they can ________.

A. write more notes B. digest concepts better

C. get higher scores D. understand lectures better

2While taking notes,laptop users tend to be ________.

A. skilful B. mindless

C. thoughtful D. tireless

3The author of the passage aims to ________.

A. examine the importance of longterm memory

B.stress the benefit of taking notes by hand

C. explain the process of taking notes

D.promote the use of laptops

4The passage is likely to appear in ________.

A. a newspaper advertisement B. a computer textbook

C. a science magazine D. a finance report

Many students may feel 【1】 (stress) because of their parents. Most parents have good intentions, 2 some of them aren’t very helpful with the problems their sons and daughters have in 3 (adjust)to college, and a few of them seem to go out of their way to add to their children’s 4 (difficulty).

For one thing, parents are often not aware of the kinds of problems their children face. They don’t realize that the 5 (compete) is stronger, that the required standards of work are 6 (high), and that their children may not be prepared for 7 change. They may be upset by their children’s poor grades. At their kindest, they may 8 (gentle) ask why John or Mary isn’t doing better, whether he or she is trying as hard as he or she should, and so on. At their worst, they may threaten 9 (take) their children out of college or cut off living expenses.

Sometimes parents think it right and natural that they determine 【10 their children do with their lives. They forget that everyone is different and that each person must develop in his or her own way.
