Question

【題目】If you don’t use your arms or your legs, they become weak; when you start using them again, they 【1】 (slow) become strong again. Everyone knows that. Yet many people don’t seem to know that memory works in 【2】 same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really 【3】 (mean) that he keeps his memory in practice by using 【4】. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance 【5】 (become) strong. If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are 【6】 (blame), and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people can^ read or write but usually they have 【7】 (good) memories? This is 【8】 they can’t read or write and they have to remember days, names, songs and 【9】 (story), so their memory is the whole time being exercised.

【解析】本文主要講了記憶要經(jīng)常練習(xí)，人們才會(huì)擁有好的記憶力。

【3】考查時(shí)態(tài)。全文都用的一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)，所以這里也要用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)，且主語(yǔ)he是第三人稱單數(shù)，所以謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞也用單數(shù)，填means。

【4】考查代詞。他真正的意思是他一直通過(guò)使用它，來(lái)鍛煉他的記憶。指代his memory，所以用it。

【5】考查不定式。表示“為了變得牢固”，作目的狀語(yǔ)，用不定式，所以填to become。

【7】考查比較級(jí)。你有沒有發(fā)現(xiàn)不會(huì)讀、不會(huì)寫的人通常會(huì)擁有更好的記憶力。表示“更好”，用比較級(jí)，所以填better。
