25、Grown-ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since. A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.
One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows:Once we have learned something, additional learning trials(尝试)increase the length of time we will remember it.
In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as “Twinkle, little star” and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but overlearn.
The multiplication tables(乘法口诀表)are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.
The law of overlearning explains why cramming(突击学习)for an examination, though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary for one’s future development.
【1】What is the main idea of paragraph 1?
A.People remember well what they learned in childhood.
B.Children have a better memory than grown-ups.
C.Poem reading is a good way to learn words.
D.Stories for children are easy to remember.
【2】The author explains the law of overlearning by ________.
A.presenting research findings
B.setting down general rules
C.making a comparison
D.using examples
【3】According to the author, being able to use multiplication tables is ________.
A.a result of overlearning
B.a special case of cramming
C.a skill to deal with math problems
D.a basic step towards advanced studies
【4】What is the author’s opinion on cramming?
A.It leads to failure in college exams.
B.It’s helpful only in a limited way.
C.It’s possible to result in poor memory.
D.It increases students’ learning interest.
26、
“Lives of great men all remind us we can make our lives sublime (令人崇敬的). And, departing (离开), leave behind us footprints on the sand of time.” The lines are from A Psalm of Life (《人生颂》) by US poet Henry Longfellow (1807-1882). Chen Lin, a great educator, read them in a video when he was 96 years old.
The master of English education in China celebrated his 100th birthday in April, 2022. He has devoted his whole life to foreign-language education. In 1950, Chen started teaching at Beijing Foreign Studies University (BFSU). He was known as the “Professor of Three Ups”. He kept on “standing up” and “speaking up” in his classes. He always stood to teach and spoke loudly. But, when class was over, he would “shut up” at once.
In the 1980s, most teachers in China used the “teacher speaks, students listen” model of English education. But Chen encouraged students to speak more and practice more. He also guided students to master different language skills, including listening, speaking, reading, and writing.
In 1999, Chen and his team developed English curriculum standards (课程标准). Before that, English teaching goals from primary school to university were not well-connected. But they changed the situation and made English education like “one package”.
After retirement (退休), Chen continues working. He reads every day. He also writes articles about how to improve English education.
【1】Mr Chen read A Psalm of Life in ________.
A.1922
B.2018
C.2022
D.1976
【2】“Three ups” refers to the following things except ________.
A.giving up
B.shutting up
C.standing up
D.speaking up
【3】What does the underlined word “they” refer to?
A.Lines.
B.English curriculum standards.
C.Teaching goals.
D.English education.
【4】What can we learn from this passage?
A.Chen started teaching at BFSU at the age of 38.
B.In the 1980s, few teachers in China used the “teacher speaks, students listen” model of English education.
C.Before 1999, English teaching goals from primary school to university were well-connected.
D.Mr Chen and his team developed English curriculum standards which made English education like “one package”.
【5】The purpose of this passage is to introduce ________.
A.the models of English education in China
B.the development of English curriculum standards in China
C.a great educator of English education in China
D.a great US poet and his poems
