As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information, are people remembering less? If you know your computer will save information, why store it in your own personal memory, your brain? Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.

In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments. She and her research team wanted to know the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer. The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information. The second group understood that the computer would not save it. Later, the second group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.

In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the computer. The information was in a specific computer folder (文件夹). Surprisingly, people later remember the folder location (位置) better than the facts. When people use the Internet, they do not remember the information. Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called "transactive memory (交互记忆)"

According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet. Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memories; that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access(获取) it at a later date. This doesn't mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.

1.The passage begins with two questions to ______.

A. introduce the main topic

B. show the author's altitude

C. describe how to use the Interne.

D. explain how to store information

2.What can we learn about the first experiment?

A. Sparrow's team typed the information into a computer.

B. The two groups remembered the information equally well.

C. The first group did not try to remember the formation.

D. The second group did not understand the information.

3.In transactive memory, people ______.

A. keep the information in mind

B. change the quantity of information

C. remember how to find the information

D. organize information like a computer

4.What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow's research?

A. We are becoming more intelligent.

B. We are using memory differently.

C. We have poorer memories than before.

D. We need a better way to get information.

In recent years some extreme weather events have arisen from global warming because of human activities, with studies indicating an increasing threat from extreme weather in the future. Scientists were certain that global warming is being caused mostly by increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases and other humanactivities.

Its effects include warming global temperature, rising sea levels and expansion of deserts in the subtropics(亚热带). Warming is expected to be greater over land than over the oceans and greatest in the Arctic, with the continuing loss of glaciers, permafrost and sea ice. Other likely changes include more frequent extreme weather events including heat waves, droughts, heavy rainfall with floods, heavy snowfall and species extinction due to great change of temperature. Bad effects on humans include the threat to food security from decreasing crop yields and the loss of populated(住人的) areas because of rising sea levels.

Possible responses to global warming are reduction of emissions(排放), adaptation to its effects, building systems resilient to its effects, and possible future climate engineering. Most countries are parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change UNFCCC), whose objective is to prevent dangerous climate change. It has adopted a range of policies designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and to assist in adaptation to global warming. It is agreed that future global warming should be limited to below 2.0 °C (3.6 °F) relative to the pre-industrial level.

On 12 November 2015, NASA scientists reported that human-made carbon dioxide continues to increase above levels that have not been seen in hundreds of thousands of years: currently, about half of the carbon dioxide released from the burning of fossil fuels remains in the atmosphere and is not absorbed by vegetation and the oceans.

1.What does the underlined word “resilient” mean?

A. be easily damaged B. be able to recover easily

C. can be bent easily D. be difficult to change

2.Which of following is NOT mentioned as an effect of global warming?

A. rising sea levelsand expansion of deserts

B. more frequent extreme weather events

C. species extinction

D. increasing crop yields

3.Which of the following can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?

A. It is likely for us to deal with global warming by reducing greenhouse gas emissions, adapting to its effects and climate engineering.

B. There is no solution to too much carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere.

C. It is common that human-made carbon dioxide keeps on increasing greatly in the previous several centuries.

D. Future global warming should be limited to below 3.6 °C.

“At least you’ll be close to home!”That phrase dominated the weeks before my move to my college．I took comfort in knowing that home was close by if I needed it

The night before the move，I spoke with a sophomore(大学二年级)friend of mine who was moving back the next morning．I asked if he was sad to be leaving home and his response sparked in me an internal debate．“It was nice to be back but honestly。I’ve come to think of the college as my home．”Up until that moment，the move to college seemed like an extended version of summer camp．School wasn’t a home；it was a place for me to explore when I was away from home right?

As I packed my things，I really started thinking about the concept of home，and I couldn’t help but wonder would I ever consider college my own home? The next day，once my bags were unpacked and my parents were gone，I took a moment to look around my dorm．It was absolutely nothing like my room…no bunnies，no blue curtains and no queen—sized bed．Despite the fun I was having and things I was learning in the following Welcome Week，I couldn’t bring myself to call it home．I longed for my bunnies．I even wanted my mom’s calls．“There’s no place like home．”I murmured．

Last night，I went to visit my friends and we spent the next hour talking about that missing feeling we all shared-our families，our friends，our old lives—and soon the sadness turned to fondness．One by one our friends came in to say goodnight and the room was filled with girls，all laughing and sharing our high school experiences．It wasn’t until about l：00 a．m．that I turned to my roommate，unconsciously saying，“It’s getting late…we should probably go home soon．”I was taken aback by my own words．Somehow in the few hours，my dorm room had turned into a home．

A．college lacked a friendly atmosphere

B．she didn’t get used to her college life then

C．pet-keeping was not allowed in college dorm

D．college should prepare bunnies for new students

3.Whv was the author taken aback by her own words at the end of the passage?

A．Because she began to call her college a home．

B．Because there were so many girls gathering in the dorm．

C．Because she lost a good chance to forget homesickness．

D．Because it was rude to say that when everyone was happy．
