14.If I asked you to sit down and remember a list of phone numbers or a series of facts,how would you go about it?There's a fair chance that you'd be doing it wrong.
One of the interesting things about the mind is that even though we all have one,we don't have perfect insight (洞察力) into how to get the best from it.This is partly because of flaws (缺陷) in our ability to think about our own thinking.Studying this self-reflective thought process exposes human beings'mental blind spots.
One area where these blind spots are particularly large is learning.We're actually surprisingly bad at having insight into how we learn best.
Researchers Jeffrey Karpicke and Henry Roediger III made an experiment,where they asked college students to learn pairs of Swahili and English words.So,for example,they had to learn that if they were given the Swahili word"mashua"the correct response was"boat".They could have used the sort of facts you might get on a high-school quiz,but the use of Swahili meant that there was little chance their participants could use any background knowledge to help them learn.After the pairs had all been learnt,there would be a final test a week later.
Now if many of us were revising this list we might study the list,test ourselves and then repeat this cycle,dropping items we got right.This makes studying and testing quicker and allows us to focus our effort on the things we haven't yet learnt.It's a plan that seems to make perfect sense,but it's a plan that is disastrous if we really want to learn properly.
Karpicke and Roediger asked students to prepare for a test in various ways,and compared their success-for example,one group kept testing themselves on all items without dropping what they were getting right,while another group stopped testing themselves on their correct answers.On the final exam differences between the groups were dramatic.While dropping items from study didn't have much of an effect,the people who dropped items from testing performed relatively poorly.
It seems the effective way to learn is to practice getting items back from memory,not trying to consolidate (巩固) them in there by further study.Moreover,dropping items entirely from your revision,which is the advice given by many study guides,is wrong.You can stop studying them if you've learnt them,but you should keep testing what you've learnt if you want to remember them at the time of the final exam.
So the evidence has a moral for teachers:there's more to testing than finding out what students know-tests can also help us remember.
63.According to the passage,we often fail to remember facts becauseD.
A.we ignore our weakness in memorizing things
B.we don't understand well what we are learning
C.we don't know where our metal blind spots are

13.One's beliefs are revealed not so much in words as in the assumptions on which one habitually acts and in the basic values by which all choices are tested.
The foundation of my own value system was laid in childhood with parents who believed that personal honesty came first.They never asked,"What will people think?"The question was,"What will you think of yourself,if you do this or fail to do that?"Thus,living up to one's own concept of oneself became a basic value,
A second basic value,in some ways an extension of the first,I owe to an old college professor,who had suffered more than his share of sadness and trouble.Over and over he said to us,"The one thing that really matters is to be bigger than the things that can happen to you.Nothing that can happen to you is more important that the was you end it"
Gradually I realized that here was the basis of the only real security and peace of mind that a human being can have.Nobody can be sure when disaster,disappointment,or injustice may come to him through no fault of his own.Nor can one be guaranteed against one's own mistakes and failures.But the way we meet life is ours to choose.The acceptance of these two basic values led to a third.If what one is and how one meets life are of first importance,one is not impressed by another's money,status,or power,nor does one judge people by their race,color,or social position.This opens up a whole new world of relationships,for when friendships are based on qualities of mind and character,one can have friends among old and young,rich and poor,famous and unknown,educated and unlettered,and among people of all races and all nations.
Given these three basic values,a fourth became necessary.It is one's responsibility to help create a social order.Human beings must have an opportunity for the fullest development of which they are capable.One is thus led to work for a world of freedom and justice through those social agencies and institutions which make it possible for people everywhere to realize their highest potentialities.
Perhaps all these add up to a belief in what has been called the human use of human beings.When we pray,or feel pity,when we think and reason,pursue ideas,seek truth,or read a book,when we protect the weak and helpless,when we honor the noble and cherish the good,when we cooperate with our fellow men to build a better world,our behavior is worthy of our status as human beings.

72.What is the most important value according to the author?B
A.Face grief and trouble positively.
B.Live up to one's own conception of oneself
C.Begin a wide relationship with people around.
D.Help create a social order.
73.The underlined sentence in Paragraph 4probably meansA.
A.we can choose how to face our life
B.our mind can be peaceful after some failures
C.we can choose our own life
D.each of us can make mistakes sometimes
74.What does the author want to tell us in the last paragraph?D
A.We might as well help social agencies function well
B.We should think and reason while reading a book
C.We can cooperate to build social institutions
D.When we help those in need and admire the noble,we achieve the human use of human beings.
75.Where does this text probably come from?C
A.Science fiction.
B.Children's literature.
C.A magazine  
D.A news report.

12.When my now 19-year-old daughter Shanna was in Grade 3,all of Mrs Mathews'students were given a small pot with a bean seed to plant.Green string beans are pretty strong and the perfect seed to use when promoting green thumbs (园艺技能)in young children.
Once the bean plants had flowered,their teacher allowed the kids to carefully transport it from school to home.Once home,Shanna looked around for the perfect location and settled on a sunny south window sill (窗台)and then proudly declared,"Soon I can feed the whole family!"
Shanna's sisters were jealous and even our cat looked interested,which should have a warning to me because when I woke up the next morning,I saw that the bean plant had been unkindly knocked off the window sill.The plant,it seemed,was a goner.
As I gently began to explain that the bean plant had to be put in the compost,her reaction was not what I expected.She said,"Everything will be OK,Mom;the plant will get better."She secured the first aid kit (急救箱)from the bathroom,and a deep belief that the sad looking near-dead bean plant would live and even produce food!
Days later,to my surprise,the bean plant was standing tall and looking lively.It was also amazing to see that the one and only bean,had become fleshy almost completely masking the claw marks that had scarred it.This time we built a castle of heavy books to keep it safe until our day of reward.
I set the table beautifully for Thanksgiving dinner.The beans were carefully divided by 5,which awarded each person 2small pieces,claw marks and all.They turned out to be the best green beans I had ever eaten!
In my work as a youth motivator I am brought together with kids and teens that all desperately need people to believe in them.Now,more than ever,no matter what I have been told about a child or a teen and their behavior,I see everyone,no exceptions,with the same eyes and heart that my daughter used on her broken,beaten up bean plant

56.We can infer Mrs Mathew made her studentsB
A.eat more beans as healthy food     
B.develop their ability of growing plants
C.learn the hard work of farmers     
D.make a research in the bean structure
57.According to the writer,she should have thought thatC
A.the plant might fall off the window sill
B.other children might be jealous of Shanna
C.the cat might make trouble to the bean plant
D.the bean plant might die for lack of sunlight
58.Knowing the plant was broken,ShannaD.
A.had to throw it to the compost
B.decided to find out who was to blame
C.gave up the idea of feeding the whole family
D.gave the plant a first aid immediately
59.What lesson did the writer learn from her daughter?B
A.Children need to be well taken care of.
B.A child with bad behaviors can become good.
C.Every child is growing like a bean plant.
D.A child is very easy to believe in others.

7.Bali Beach Resort has plenty of attractions.It is a holiday paradise.The self-styled‘Ultimate Island'certainly has plenty for everyone.
Where in the world?
Bali is located just off the eastern edge of the main Indonesian island of Java.To the east is the neighboring island of Lombok.To the south of Bali lies the expanse of the Indian Ocean,while to the north is the bali Sea.The most popular resort with hokidaymakeers is Ubud north of Sanur.
When to go?
Bali has a tropical climate year round with an average daily temperature of
3℃(8℉).The wet season is between October and April.The dry season is between May and September,and is the busiest time to visit the island as travellers take advantage of the long hot days and little rain.
Beach
Bali has a string of beaches,mainly in the south of the island.Head away from Bali's beaches and a totally different world awaits you.Ubud is an easily accessible jungle resort town with a good range of hotels,shops and restaurants.The active volcano of Mount Batur is a highlight and so are the mountain lakes.

Eating out
All of bali's holiday resorts offer international cooking to suit every tourist's taste,with most of the better hotels having excellent restaurants.Indonesian bintang beer is very popular.
Getting around
There are a limited number of local buses.The other public transport is to take the local"bemo"minibuses.These colourful little minibuses speed around the winding roads with fares negotiated on board,so it helps to speak a little of the local language.There are also taxis and both electric bikes and cars can be hired.
