【題目】任務(wù)型閱讀
Choosing a college major is one of the most important choices you can make about your education and future career.What you study in school often determines what career opportunities you will have when you graduate.
There are a number of steps you can take before making a final decision. If you enjoy marine life, for instance, you should consider a marine biology major. If you love star-gazing, consider becoming an astronomer.
Next, consider the academic subjects in which you excel(優(yōu)秀). If you're not strong in math you might be better off not choosing engineering. If you are good at English you might choose to become an author or a journalist.
Once you've established a list of potential career fields, research them further to determine which college majors are most proper. Then you can get an idea for what courses you'll need to take.
Choosing a college major you will enjoy is important. You might find college life to be less stressful if you enjoy your classes.Perhaps most importantly, choosing the correct major may improve your overall happiness and quality of life.
A. Your teacher is there to help with just this sort of dilemma.
B. If you struggle with these steps, consider looking for outside help.
C. It may even be more important than where you attend college.
D. Your future career choices may rely heavily on what you study in college.
E. You might also avoid the unpleasantness that comes with changing your major.
F. Compare the list of your interests with the list of your talents and see which fields overlap (交叉).
G. Begin by making a list of your personal interests and careers which correspond with them.

【題目】Some creative people see colors when they hear different sounds. Others hear voices when they see words and numbers. What they experience is called synaesthesia(通感)。

A study at the University of Sussex in the UK is finding out how to use synacsthesia to improve your IQ and memory. The study leaders Danil Bor has been working on exploring memory for a number of year. Bor says that carrying out these tests has given them the opportunity to find out more about how we use different kinds of memory.

Bor based his latest research on something scientists already know a lot about “chunks”. He explains that this is a way of parceling out large pieces of information into smaller units (chunks), with certain features or meanings, to make it easier to remember.” When I gave you my phone number, 01274737271, you probably remember it as 012-74-73-72-71, or something similar. If you can remember 012 and then 74, you can remember the rest by its features. You can get some amazing benefits from chunks.”

In this way, synacesthesia adds extra meaningful information to things that are different to remember, such as letters, numbers, or colors. This helps us remember things betters.” All these signs are pointing towards synaesthesia being connected to greater abilities to do certain things, certain jobs.” says Bor. “So, the study began as a way to test that.”

They wanted to see if they could create a way to learn about synaesthesia, and use its benefits to help everyone. In the study, they trained volunteers for 10 minutes a day for a week. The results were not huge, but impressive.

They discovered that after training, the volunteers were able to pass the normal synaesthesia tests and their IQ jumped up about 12 points. Although Bor believes they still need to test the increase in IQ with different groups of people, the result is very impressive. “It’s very useful to increases people’s IQs. Even when the group are already quite clever, like the students who take part in this study.” he said.

1Which is the best title for this passage?

A. Synaesthesia, a Common Phenomenon B. Synaesthesia and Chunks

C. What Synaesthesia Tells Us? D. Synaesthesia Helps you Improve IQ

2How does synaesthesia improve memory?

A. Synaesthesia adds news meanings to memory materials.

B. Synaesthesia is connected to greater abilities to do certain things.

D. Synaesthesia blends blends various methods together.

3What does “parcel out” in paragraph 3 mean?

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
A telescope, called Gaia, is being designed by astronomers in Europe, and it couldn't be more different from Pan-STARRS, which is another telescope being designed. While Pan-STARRS will be looking for asteroids (小行星) and comets headed for Earth, Gaia will be looking at our entire galaxy (銀河系).
Gaia is designed to draw a map of the Milky Way, our home galaxy. Just as a map of your town gives you a picture of where things are located, Gaia's map of the galaxy will tell astronomers where the stars are. Over five years, Gaia will observe (觀察) about a billion stars and other objects in our galaxy. Each object will be observed about 70 times.
Gaia will be sent into space connected to a rocket. It contains two telescopes, each focused at a different angle (角度). These two telescopes act like Gaia's “eyes”. The reason why humans can see things in 3D is that we have two eyes focused on the same object, at slightly different angles. By using two telescopes like eyes, Gaia can produce the first 3D map of the positions of the stars it views.
Gaia, which is to be sent into space, will be a powerful telescope. If you were to use it on Earth, for example, you could stand 600 miles away from your best friends and still get a clear picture of their hair.
Gaia is one of more than a dozen telescopes being designed by scientists right now. The next generation of telescopes will reveal new parts of our universe that will seem surprising. The universe, with all its planets, stars and other strange objects, is a puzzle with pieces that we can see by using powerful telescopes.
(1)How many different angles can Gaia focus at each time?
A.2.
B.3.
C.4.
D.5.
(2)The map to be drawn by Gaia ______.
A.can show every building on Earth
B.can show you where your town is
C.will just show the stars around Earth
D.will show where the stars are in our home galaxy
(3)What's Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A.What Gaia will do in space.
B.When Gaia will start to work.
C.How powerful Gaia will be.
D.What Gaia will do to Earth.
(4)The underlined sentence in the last paragraph suggests that the next generation of telescopes _______.
A.seem very surprising to scientists
B.will not be put into use in a short time
C.will just look at new things in universe
D.will be more powerful than the old generations
