24、   Language students often think they have memory problems. They worry because they can’t remember words. In fact, the problem usually isn’t with their memory. The problem is with how they study.

To remember word better, you need to understand how memory works. There are two kinds of memory: short-term and long-term. When you see, hear or read something. It goes first into short-term memory. But short-term memory lasts for only a few seconds. You will only remember something longer if it goes into long-term memory. Your long-term memory is like a very big library with many, many books. And like a library, it's organized. When you put away a book-or memory- you can’t just leave it anywhere. You have to choose a place where you can find it again.

How can you do this with vocabulary? The answer is to work with the word and think about the word in new ways. You can do this by writing new sentences that include it. Even better, you can invent a little story about the word, with people or places that you know. Another way is to make a picture in your mind with the word. For example, if the word is “height”, you can think of the tallest person you know and try to guess his or her height. All of these activities are good ways to think about words. They make the meaning of words stronger in your long-term memory. And they give a way to find a word when you need it.

【1】In the writer's opinion, students can't remember words because_____.

A.they have memory problems B.they are too worried

C.they don’t use a proper way D.they don't like to study

A.Short-term memory is seldom used

B.What we see goes into long-term memory first.

C.We will forget a word soon if it goes into short-term memory.

D.We will never forget a word if it goes into long-term memory.

【3】The underlined word "it" in Paragraph 2 refers to_____.

A.everything in life B.something you’ve seen, heard or read

C.short-term memory D.long-term memory

【4】This passage mainly tells us about_____.

A.language students' problems in study B.how to make the meaning of words stronger

C.short-term and long-term memory D.how to improve ways to remember words

25、In the world there are a lot of people using public transport, some love it and still some dislike it. If everyone has a car and drives anywhere they want to go, there will be serious traffic problems on the road. Luckily, trains are a good form of public transport.

British people use trains a lot. This is especially so for people who are traveling from London to Paris. Every day about 20 trains leave London. They travel at a very high speed and people feel glad that the trains take only 2 hours and 30 minutes to reach Paris. It's much faster to travel by train than by bus or by car. This is because people have to drive cars or buses very carefully and slowly for many reasons, such as speed limits and traffic jams.  However,  when  you  are  traveling  by train,  the speed is almost  he same and  there is no  traffic  jam  for a train.

Besides, Londoners think taking a train is one of the safest ways of traveling on the ground. Trains take quite a number of quality tests while they are made. More importantly, they have to take many safety checks before they are used on the rail track.

What's more, trains in Britain are comfortable and provide fine services for their users. When you are on a London train, you will find that the train has comfortable tables and seats where people can sit. They also provide food services andpower plugs  (电源插头) for personal computers or mobile phone.

A. drivers can drive fast   B. drivers can drive carelessly

C. cars are not moving fast   D. cars will stop working

【3】The 3rd paragraph of the passage mainly talks about the ________ of trains.

A. speed   B. safety   C. services   D. problems

【4】What can we know from the passage?

A. We can travel from London to Paris in less than 2hours.

B. We can do our work with personal computers on the train.

C. We have to wait till we get off the train in order to have some food.

26、   "Cool" is a word with many meanings. Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meaning.

“Cool” can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything.

When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say, "It's cool." You may think, "He's so cool," when you see your favorite footballer.

We all maximize(扩大)the meaning of cool". You can use it instead of many words such as “new” or “surprising”. Here's an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used. A teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall they had visited. On one student's paper was just the one sentence, “It's so cool”. Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.

But the story also shows a scarcity(缺乏)of words. Without “cool”, some people have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite important to keep some credibility(可信性). Can you think of many other words that make your life as colorful as the word “cool”? I can. And I think they are also very cool.

A.can be used instead of many words B.usually means something interesting

C.can make your life colorful D.may not be as cool as it seems
