Most episodes (片段) of absent-mindedness—forgetting where you left something or wondering why you just entered a room—are caused by a simple lack of attention.” says Schacter. “You’re supposed to remember something, but you haven’t encoded it deeply.”

“Encoding”, Schacter explains, “is a special way of paying attention to an event that has a major effect on remembering it later. Failure to encode properly can create annoying situations. If you put your mobile phone in a pocket, for example, and don’t pay attention to what you did because you’re involved in a conversation, you’ll probably forget that the phone is in the jacket now hanging in your wardrobe (衣柜).” “Your memory itself isn’t failing you,” says Schacter. “Rather, you didn’t give your memory system the information it needed.”

Lack of interest can also lead to absent-mindedness. “A man who can recite sports statistics from 30 years ago,” says Zelinski, “may not remember to drop a letter in the mailbox.” Women have slightly better memories than men, possibly because they pay more attention to their environment. And memory depends on just that.

“Reminders can help prevent absent-mindedness,” says Schacter. “But be sure the reminder is clear and available,” he says. If you want to remember to take medicine with lunch, put it on the kitchen table— don’t leave it in the medicine chest and write yourself a note that you keep in a pocket.

Another common episode of absent-mindedness: walking into a room and wondering why you’re there. Most likely, you were thinking about something else. “Everyone does this from time to time,” says Zelinski. The best thing to do is to return to where you were before entering the room, and you’ll likely remember.

1.Why does the writer think that encoding is important?

A. It helps us understand our memory system better.

B. It enables us to remember something from our memory.

C. It expands our memory ability greatly.

D. It slows down the process of losing our memory.

2.Why can a note in the pocket hardly serve as a reminder?

A. Because it will easily get lost.

B. Because it’s not clear enough for you to read.

C. Because it’s out of your sight.

D. Because it might get mixed up with other things.

3.What do we learn from the last paragraph?

A. If we pay more attention to one thing, we might forget another.

B. Memory depends to a certain extent on the environment.

C. Doing something again helps improve our memory.

D. If we keep forgetting things, we’d better return to where we were.

4.What is the passage mainly about?

A. The process of gradual memory loss.

B. The causes of absent-mindedness.

C. The influence of the environment on memory.

D. A way of encoding and remembering.

A recent study led by researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) has found a clear link between the color of a taxi and its accident rate. An analysis of 36 months of detailed taxi, driver and accident data from two fleets of yellow and blue taxis in Singapore suggested that yellow taxis have fewer accidents than blue taxis. The higher visibility (能見(jiàn)度） of yellow makes it less difficult for drivers to avoid getting into accidents with yellow taxis, leading to a lower accident rate.

The study was led by Prof Ho. To test whether there was a relationship between the color of a taxi and the number of accidents the taxi had, the research team analysed data collected by the largest taxi company in Singapore. The researchers found that yellow taxis have about 6. 1 fewer accidents per 1,000 taxis per month.

They also studied the economic effect of changing the color of the entire fleet of taxis to yellow. The Singapore taxi company involved in the study owns about 16,700 taxis in a ratio (比例) of one yellow to three blue taxis. If a commercial decision is made to switch from blue to yellow taxis, 76. 6 fewer accidents will occur per month or 917 fewer accidents per year.

Assuming an average repair cost of $1,000 per car and a downtime of six days, the color of all taxis to yellow could produce an annual saving of $2 million.

“We are eager to continue to validate (證實(shí)) the findings of our study by looking at the use of yellow in other types of public transport, such as school buses. For example, we hope to compare the accident rates of yellow school buses against those of other colors to find out if yellow is indeed a safer color for school buses. Besides, we’ re also interested to look at private-hire vehicles and do a comparison of the accident rates of vehicles that are of different colors explained Prof Ho.

1.Why do yellow taxis result in fewer accidents?

A. Because yellow signals a warning of danger.

B. Because yellow can be seen more easily.

C. Because drivers tend to he more careful in yellow taxis.

D. Because people act more quickly in yellow surroundings.

2.What’ s Prof Ho’s study based on?

A. Physical risks taxi passengers experience.

B. The economic effect of changing taxi color.

C. Personal reports from taxi drivers worldwide.

D. Data from Singapore's largest taxi company.

3.What do Prof Ho’s words in the last paragraph suggest?

A. School buses should be painted yellow.

B. Their findings are worth popularizing.

C. Their study will be furthered.

D. Yellow should be widely used in public transport,

4.What can be the best title for the text?

A. Safer to ride in yellow taxis B. Caution: yellow taxis ahead

C. Why are yellow Taxis preferred? D. How can colors help prevent accidents?

Researchers have created a backpack that has a computer and medicines in it that can help even untrained soldiers save the lives of wounded troops. Wounded soldiers have a better chance of survival if they get help soon after being hurt and are quickly taken to a hospital or clinic. But soldiers who do not have medical training may not know how to help their injured friends.

Doctors and engineers have developed what they call an “intelligent backpack”.It has a computer and electronic measuring devices. The backpack also has robotic instruments and medicines ready to give to injured troops.

About 16 doctors and engineers from the University of Pittsburgh, Carnegie Mellon University and several other places are working on the project. The U. S. Department of Defense has given money to the project.

Ron Poropatich leads the project. He is a retired army surgeon. He says the backpack will help soldiers care for those who are injured. The devices included in the backpack can monitor a person^ heart rate and blood pressure. The robotic instruments can even tell whether the soldier has a collapsed lung.

The intelligent backpack's computer can compare information gathered about the injured soldier with thousands of similar cases, and quickly tell the best methods to use to save the soldier’s life.

Sometimes, it is not always possible to quickly remove the injured soldier from the battlefield.So,Dr. Poropatich says, the researchers hope to create a backpack that will have devices .that can keep a .soldier alive for a long time. Dr. Poropatich hopes the backpack and its instruments will be ready for testing animals in about three years.

1.What can we learn from the first paragraph?

A. The backpack can play a big part in the battlefield.

B. Most of the soldiers can’t use the backpack correctly.

C. Soldiers should have taken medical training.

D. War or battle has brought harm to the world.

2.How many kinds of items are mentioned in the backpack?

Family is another important factor in having a happy life because it provides the love, joy, and support that everyone needs. I love my family with all my heart. I get pleasure from their pleasure. I suffer when they suffer. 4. They give me advice when I have misunderstandings with my friends. More importantly, they are always there to share everything with me.

B

Linda Abraham, co-founder of Scores, a leading digital analytic company, established her organization on a simple premise(前提): hire people you respect, not necessary people you like. Since starting the business in 1999, she has intentionally brought in people she didn’t like but thought they would be good for the team. ＂They’re almost like allergy shots for your organization,＂ she says.

A few years back, she hired Dan against the wishes of other people on her team. Even during the interview process, he rubbed people the wrong way. But Linda thought he had the right skills and experience. He came from a large tech company and tended to talk a lot about scale, which many people regarded as advocating bureaucracy(官僚主義) — a no-no (不可接受的事) in the start-up culture.

For the first six months, he made regular observations about one of the company’s products and how it could work better. ＂When I really dug into what he was trying to say, I was impressed,＂ Linda says. While he wasn’t very experienced in his comments (he often described things as ＂dumb＂), he was insightful. ＂We ended up scrapping (廢棄) the job we hired him for and had him take on the improvements he suggested,＂ she says.

Even in the new role, he wasn’t likable. But Linda tried to focus on the content of what he was saying rather than the way he was saying it, and she coached others to do the same. She also invested time in helping Dan understand how he was coming across and what he could do to change his style. Eventually her attitude toward him changed. ＂I’ve come to like him quite a bit,＂ she says. ＂He’s ruffled more than a few feathers along the way, but he’s been promoted and has really crushed it.＂

1. Linda probably hires people who .

A. are very popular with others B. can benefit her company

C. respect others very much D. have different personalities

2.The underlined sentence ＂he rubbed people the wrong way＂ means ＂ ＂.

A. he misunderstood what people said

B. he blamed others for their mistakes

C. he got lost on the way to the interview

D. he didn’t get on well with people present

3. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that .

A. Linda accepted Dan’s style B. Dan changed his style completely

C. Linda fell in love with Dan deeply D. Dan had to practice speaking a lot

4.What would be the best title for the text?

A. How to run a big company B. How to live with other people

C. How to change a person quickly D. How to manage someone you don’t like
