Question

【題目】If you do not use your arms or legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows this , and nobody would think of questioning the fact. 【1】 When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by exercising it regularly, either consciously or unconsciously. When someone else says that his memory is poor , he really means that he does not give it enough opportunity to become strong. 【2】 One of them exercises his arms and legs by playing tennis, while the other sits in a chair or motor car all day.

If a friend complains that his arms are weak, we know that it is his own fault. 【3】 , many of us think that his parents are to blame, or that he is just unlucky, and few of us realize that it is just his own fault. Not all of us can become extremely strong or extremely clever; but all of us can, if we have ordinary bodies and brains, improve our strength and our memory by the same means—practice.

Have you ever noticed that people who cannot read or write usually have better memories than those who can? 【4】 Of course, because those who cannot read or write have to remember things; they cannot write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember dates, time and prices, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the wholespan> time being exercised.

【5】 ，learn from the poor：practice remembering.

A. What do you think of it ?

B. Yet many people do not seem to know that the memory works in the same way.

C. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory

D. So if you want a good memory

E. When someone else says that he is poor in the health

G. The position is exactly the same as that of two people.

【解析】

試題分析：文章以人們的體育健身入題，介紹了如果我們不經(jīng)常使用我們的臂膀和腿的時(shí)候，它們會(huì)變得弱，文章就這一觀點(diǎn)做了詳細(xì)介紹。

【1】B 該空的后面提到When someone says that he has a good memory,有關(guān)記憶的，在備選項(xiàng)當(dāng)中只有B項(xiàng)符合，起到承上啟下的作用。

【2】G 前面的文章描寫(xiě)了兩個(gè)不同人的狀況，所以該空是對(duì)前文的總結(jié)概括，所以選擇G。

【3】C 根據(jù)后文的Not all of us can become extremely strong or extremely clever提示，我們的記憶是由天生注定的，所以可能有人抱怨他的記憶力不好，所以選擇C項(xiàng)。

【4】F 該空后面是對(duì)前面的問(wèn)題的回答，所以該空應(yīng)該是一個(gè)問(wèn)句，所以選擇F項(xiàng)。

【5】D 位于文章的斷尾，一定是起到總結(jié)，號(hào)召的作用，所以D項(xiàng)符合語(yǔ)境，號(hào)召大家要行動(dòng)起來(lái)。
