24、   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.

A.human beings are less clever than chimps

A.Why a chimp does better than a teenager.

B.How to memorize things quickly and well.

25、   Has anyone ever told you that eating carrots will help you see in the dark? This is just one of many incorrect beliefs you may have heard. Below, there are some scientific explanations for three mistakes that people make about their eyes. Let's take a look.

It may be helpful for people who have trouble sensing lights in the dark. Carrots are rich in vitamin A, which helps the eyes to turn light into information for your brain. This allows people to see in darker places. However, eating more carrots won't help you see better. A certain minimum (少量) amount will help, but a large number of carrots will not give you superhuman vision.

If your parents have bad eyesight, will you have bad eyesight, too?

Myopia (近视) can be passed from parents to children. A study by the American Optometric Association found that if both parents are myopic, there's a 33 to 60 percent chance that their child will be. For children who have one parent with myopia, the chance is 23 to 40 percent, and it's down to 6 to 15 percent for kids with non-myopic parents.

So if your eyesight is bad, your children might still have good vision.

Do color blind people see the world in black and white?

Color blindness doesn't usually mean that people see the world like an old movie. There are different levels of color blindness. Some people are only color blind in low light. However, in the most serious form of color blindness, everything is shades of gray.

This is actually connected to how serious the cone cells (视锥细胞) have been damaged. Normally, cone cells contain various kinds of chemicals, which are sensitive to different wavelengths (波长) of light. If a few chemicals are missing, people then can't tell certain colors apart, especially green and red. Another commonly confused pair of colors is yellow and blue. If cone cells do not contain those chemicals, then the most serious form of color blindness occurs.

27、   Old age may not sound exciting. But recent findings offer good news for older people and for people who worried about getting older.

Researchers found that people become happier and experience less worry after they reach the age of 50. In fact, they said, by the age of 85 , people are happier with their life than they were when they were 18 years old.

The findings came from a survey of more than 340 ,000 adults in the US. The Gallup Organization questioned them by telephone in 2008. At that time, the people were between the ages of 18 and 85.

The researchers asked questions about emotions (情绪) like happiness, sadness and worry.

They also asked about mental (精神) or emotional stress.

Arthur Stone in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science at Stony Brook University in New York led the study. His team found that levels of stress were highest among adults between the ages of 22 and 25.

The findings showed that stress levels dropped sharply after people reached their fifties. Happiness was highest among the adults who are in their seventies and eighties.

The study also showed that men and women have similar emotional things as they grow older. However, women at all ages reported more sadness, stress and worry than men.

The findings appeared in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Researchers said they didn't know why happiness increases as people get older. One theory is that, as people grow older, they grow more thankful for what they have and have better control of their emotions. They also spend less time thinking about bad experiences.

A．Adults between the ages of 22 and 25.

A．Old people can control their moods better.

B．Men and women have similar emotional things as they grow older.

C．Women at all ages reported more sadness, stress and worry than men.

D．Researchers know exactly why happiness increases as people get older.

【3】Which of the following is the best title for this passage?

A．The Older, the Happier

28、   People all over the world celebrate the new year. However, not all c【1】 celebrate it in the same way, and in some places, the new year doesn't begin on, the same date every year.

In many countries, the new year b【2】 on 1st January, but people start celebrating on 31st December, New Year's Eve. In New York many people go to celebrate in Times Square.

Just before 12 o'clock, everyone counts down from 10:10,9,8.… As soon as it's 12o'clock, everyone s【4】very loudly, "Happy New Year!"

New Year's Day is often a family day. Some families get together for a s【5】 meal. When the weather is fine, many families go out for a walk.

On New Year's Day, many people make resolutions (下决心) for the new year. They w【6】down a list of thing, such as “ I will help mother with more h【7】 , I will work harder at school than others” or “I won't spend so much time playing v【8】 games".
