Question

4．A new study shows students who write notes by hand during lectures perform better on exams than those who use laptops．
Students are increasingly using laptops for note-taking because of speed and legib ility（清晰度）．But the research has found laptop users are less able to remember and apply the concepts they have been taught．
Researchers performed experiments that aimed to find out whether using a laptop increased the tendency to make notes"mindlessly"by taking down word for word what the professor said．
In the first experiment，students were given either a laptop or pen and paper．They listened to the same lectures and were told to use their usual note-taking skills．Thirty minutes after the talk，they were examined on their ability to remember facts and on how well they understood concepts．
The researchers found that laptop users took twice as many notes as those who wrote by hand．However，the typists performed worse at remembering and applying the concepts．Both groups scored similarly when it came to memorizing facts．
The researcher's report said，"While more notes are beneficial，if the notes are taken mindlessly，as is more likely the case on a laptop，the benefit disappears．"
In another experiment aimed at testing long-term memory，students took notes as before but were tested a week after the lecture．This time，the students who wrote notes by hand performed significantly better on the exam．
These two experiments suggest that handwritten notes are not only better for immediate learning and understanding，but that they also lead to superior revision in the future．
 
24．More and more students favor laptops for note-taking because they canA．
A．write more notes                         
B．digest concepts better．
C．get higher scores                          
D．understand lectures better
25．While taking notes，laptop users tend to beB．
A．skillful．
B．mindless．
C．thoughtful．
D．tireless．
26．The author of the passage aims toC．
A．examine the importance of long-term memory．
B．stress the benefit of taking notes by hand
C．explain the process of taking notes
D．promote the use of lap tops．
27．The passage is likely to appear inC．
A．a(chǎn) newspaper advertisement                
B．a(chǎn) computer textbook．
C．a(chǎn) science magazine                      
D．a(chǎn) finance report．

Answer 1

分析 文章介紹通過實驗發(fā)現(xiàn)手寫記筆記比用筆記本記筆記好處更多，學(xué)生更容易記住記的材料．這樣可以督促學(xué)生多用手記筆記．

解答 24．A  細節(jié)理解題：根據(jù)文章第二段第一行的句子：Students are increasingly using laptops for note-taking because of speed and legibility（清晰度）．可知越來越多的學(xué)生喜歡用筆記本記筆記，因為這樣他們可以記更多的筆記．所以選A．
25．B  細節(jié)理解題：根據(jù)第三段的句子，Researchers performed experiments that aimed to find out whether using a laptop increased the tendency to make notes"mindlessly"by taking down word for word what the professors said可知使用筆記本記筆記的學(xué)生往往是無意識的．所以選B．
26．C  寫作意圖題：文章介紹通過實驗發(fā)現(xiàn)手寫記筆記比用筆記本記筆記好處更多，學(xué)生更容易記住記的材料，所以作者是想強調(diào)用手記筆記的重要性．所以選C．
27．C   推理判斷題：These two experiments suggest that handwritten notes are not only better for immediate learning and understanding，but that they also lead to superior revision in the future．作者介紹手寫記筆記和用筆記本記筆記好處相比，學(xué)生更容易記住記的材料．這個結(jié)果是通過兩個實驗得出的，所以應(yīng)該是出現(xiàn)在科學(xué)雜志上，而不是：報紙廣告，電腦課文，和財經(jīng)報道，所以選C．

點評 本文是科教類閱讀理解．做這類題材閱讀理解時要求考生對文章通讀一遍，做題時結(jié)合原文和題目有針對性的找出相關(guān)語句進行仔細分析，結(jié)合選項選出正確答案．推理判斷題也是要在抓住關(guān)鍵句子的基礎(chǔ)上合理的分析才能得出正確答案，切忌胡亂猜測，一定要做到有理有據(jù)
