Adults are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practised in the meantime. A man who has not had an opportunity to go swimming for years can 1 swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after several decades and still 2 away. A mother who has not 3 the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins "Twinkle, twinkle, little star" or recite the story of Cinderella or Snow White.
One explanation is the law of over learning, which can be stated as following: 4 we have learned something, additional learning increases the 5 of time we will remember it.
In childhood, we usually continue to practise such skills as swimming, bicycle riding long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and 6 ourselves of poems such as "Twinkle, twinkle, little star" and childhood tales such as Cinderella or Snow White. We not only learn but __7 .
The law of over learning explains why cramming (突擊學習) for an examination, 8 it may result in a passing grade, is not a 9 way to learn a school course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little over learning, 10 , is usually a good investment toward the future.

解析試題分析：為什么你小時候?qū)W的兒歌、童謠到你長大了還不會忘記？那是因為overlearn的緣故。他有什么好處？突擊學習法有什么不好？看完這篇文章，你就知道了。
【小題1】B 詞義比較常識運用前后照應 大人們都經(jīng)常感到吃驚，小時候他們所學的東西，雖然其間從來沒有操練過，也能夠完好地記住。一個好些年里沒有機會去游泳的人當他有回到水里的時候，他會仍然(still)象往常一樣地游泳。only僅僅, 只不過；hardly幾乎不；still依然，仍然，還，表示原有狀態(tài)的持續(xù)；even甚至，表示過分程度。注意后句中的still，此句與后句結(jié)構(gòu)相仿。
【小題2】B 詞義比較詞匯用法常識運用 幾十年后他仍然可以蹬上自行車把車子騎(ride)走。drive開車，駕駛，通常指駕駛馬車、和機動車輛(如汽車等)；travel旅行，游歷，移動；ride騎(自行車)，乘坐(汽車、公共汽車，馬背等)；move動, 移動，
【小題3】C 詞義比較邏輯推理 當母親的好些年里沒有回想(think about)那些詞語了，能夠教女兒"Twinkle, twinkle, little star"開頭的小詩，也能夠背誦灰姑娘或白雪公主的故事。think about 考慮, 回想；care for關(guān)懷, 照顧；show up揭露, 露出, 露面；bring up教育, 培養(yǎng)。
【小題4】 A 語句連貫詞義比較 before在...之前，表示時間關(guān)系；once一旦，如果……就，表示條件關(guān)系；until到...為止，直到...才，表示時間關(guān)系；unless如果不, 除非，表示條件關(guān)系。
【小題5】C 詞義比較邏輯推理常識運用 一旦我們學習了某樣東西，額外的、附加的學習就會提高我們記憶它的時間長度(length)。常識告訴我們，時間久了，記憶會變得模糊，其精確性(accuracy)無法保證。length長度，時間的長短；accuracy精確性, 正確度；unit個體，單位；limit 界限, 限度。
【小題6】C 詞義辨析 小時候，我們只是不停地聽，不停地去想起并記住(remind)那些小詩和孩提的童謠。remind使人想起，使人記起，提醒，使某人不忘記；inform通知, 告知；warn警告，通知；recall回憶, 回想。
【小題7】 C 前后照應詞義比較 我們不僅僅在學習，而且同時也在附加學習(overlearn)著。通過前面的分析，這里點題。recite(背誦)也是一種學習，它包括在learn之中。research研究, 調(diào)查)和improve(改善, 改進)文意不符。
【小題8】B 邏輯推理語句連貫 雖然(though)突擊學習可能使你通過考試。though(雖然，即使)表示讓步關(guān)系；so因而，所以，表示因果關(guān)系；if如果，表示條件關(guān)系；after在……之后，表示時間關(guān)系。
【小題9】A 邏輯推理詞義比較 附加學習的規(guī)律告訴我們，突擊學習是學習學校課程中便利的(convenient)，有時也需要的(demanding)，且快速的(swift)的方法，但他不是令人滿意的(satisfactory)方法。
【小題10】 B 邏輯推理語句連貫 突擊學習可以讓學生學得好以便能夠通過考試，但學生很可能不久就會忘得一干二凈。而(on the other hand)附加學習則是對未來的良好的投資。at most至多，頂多；by the way在途中, 順便；on the other hand另一方面，表示對立關(guān)系。in the end最終，終于。
考點：考查科普類完型填空
點評：本文分析了突擊學習的優(yōu)點和缺點。從本篇完型我們可以看出完形的考查趨勢。突出考察學生詞匯與結(jié)構(gòu)，詞匯與結(jié)構(gòu)這部分既是整個考試的基礎，也是本題考察的重點部分，在以后的復習中，要特別重視詞匯與語法的復習，重視自己基礎的夯實與提高，只有這樣，才能以不變應萬變，在高考中中立于不敗之地。另外在答題注意上下文理解，同時結(jié)合邏輯推理進行答題，題目就能迎刃而解了。

What can be found in the two recent studies?
One showed that adults are much more cooperative if they work in a system based on rewards．Researchers at Harvard University in the United States and the Stockholm School of Economics in Sweden did the study, which appeared last month in the journal Science．They had about two hundred college students play a version of the game known as the Prisoner's Dilemma．The game is based on the tension between the interests of an individual and a group．The students played in groups of four．Each player could win points for the group, so they would all gain equally．But each player could also reward or punish each of the other three players, at a cost to the punisher．Harvard researcher David Rand says the most successful behavior proved to be cooperation （合作）．The groups that rewarded most earned about twice as much in the game as the groups that rewarded least．And the more a group punished itself, the lower its earnings．The group with the most punishment earned twenty-five percent less than the group with the least punishment．
The other study referred to children, which was presented last month in California at a conference on violence and abuse．Researchers used intelligence tests given to two groups．More than eight hundred children were ages two to four the first time they were tested．More than seven hundred children were ages five to nine．The two groups were retested four years later, and the study compared the results with the first test．Both groups contained children whose parents used physical punishment and children whose parents did not．The study says the IQs ?or intelligence quotients—of the younger children who were not spanked were five points higher than those who were．In the older group, the difference was almost three points．Murray Strauss from the University of New Hampshire' worked with Mallie Paschall from the Pacific Institute for Research and Evaluation．Professor Strauss has written extensively about physical punishment of children．He says the more they are spanked, the slower their mental development．He also looked at average IQs in other nations and found them lower where spanking was more common．
72．We can learn from the passage that ____．
A．the first study began last month at Harvard University in America
B．the Prisoner's Dilemma is a game that can teach you how to be cooperative
C．the study on the IQs of children was carried out by Professor Murray Strauss

She added that older adults are also on Facebook to stay connected, not only with their family, but with their friends and peers. Almost 50 percent of older adults were introdu
ced to the social networking sites by a family member, mainly a child or grandchild. "Just under one-fifth of adults aged 50 and older say they do not use the Internet," according to the report.

Parents who feel disappointed at their teenagers’ failure to pay attention in class, and inability to sit quietly long enough to finish homework or plan ahead, should take solace. Their children are not being lazy or careless, according to new research.
The research has found that teenagers’ brains continue developing far longer into adulthood than we used to think. Teens may look like young adults but their brain structure is similar to that of much younger children.
“It is not always easy for teens to pay attention in class without letting their minds wander, or to ignore distractions from their younger brothers or sisters when trying to solve a maths problem,” said Dr Iroise Dumon-theil. “But it’s not the fault of teenagers that they can’t pay attention and are easily distracted. It’s to do with the structure of their brains. Teens simply can’t think as well as an adult.”
The research showed that the brain of a teenager works less effectively than that of an adult. “We knew that the front of the brain of teens functioned in a chaotic (混亂的) way but we didn’ t realize it continued until the late 20s or early 30s,” said Dr Sarah-Jayne Blakemore, who led the research.
Chaotic thought patterns are a result of teenagers’ brains containing too much grey matter — the cell bodies and connections which carry messages within the brain. As we age, the amount of grey matter in our brain reduces.
“What our research has shown is that there is simply too much going on in the brains of teens,” said Blakemore. “The result is that their brain energy and resources are wasted and their decision-making process is badly influenced. Adults, on the other hand, have less grey matter. This means that the brain works far more effectively.”
1.The underlined word “solace” in Paragraph 1 may mean _____.
A． notice B．medicine C． comfort D．a(chǎn)ction
2.When making decisions, _____.
A． teens’ brains continue to do much needless work
B． the grey matter in young children’s front brain becomes active
C． people are not likely to be distracted until their late 30s
D． adults are more independent than teens
3.What is the effect of having too much grey matter?
A． It makes us always feel disappointed.
B． It makes us more intelligent.
C． It had a bad effect on the growth of teens.
D． It had a bad effect on decision-making.
4.What’s the text mainly about?
A． Teens have different brains from those of children.
B． Adults work more effectively than teens.
C． Grey matter makes teens unable to pay attention.
D． Brain energy is wasted in the brain’s activity.

Would you eat a ready meal from the fridge rather than cook from scratch? Have you been doing internet shopping rather than going to the stores? What can't you be bothered to do?
A study into how lazy British people are has found more than half of adults are so lazy they'd catch the lift rather than climb two flights of stairs．
Just over 2000 people were quizzed by independent researchers at Nuffield Health, Britain's largest health charity．The results were astonishing．
About one in six people surveyed said if their remote control was broken, they would continue watching the same channel rather than get up．
More than one third of those questioned said they would not run to catch a bus．Worryingly, of the 654 respondents with children, 64% said they were often too tired to play with them．
This led the report to conclude that it's no wonder that one in six children in the UK are classified as obese （very fat） before they start school．
Dr Sarah Dauncey, medical director of Nuffield Health, said: "People need to get fitter, not just for their own sake, but for the sake of their families, friends and evidently their pets too．
"If we don't start to take control of this problem, a whole generation will become too unfit to perform even the most rudimentary of tasks．"
And Scotland's largest city, Glasgow, was shamed as the most inactive city in the UK, with 75% surveyed admitting they do not get enough exercise, followed closely by Birmingham and Southampton, both with 67%．
The results cause serious challenges for the National Health Service, where obesity-related illnesses such as heart disease and cancer have been on a steady increase for the past 40 years and are costing billions of pounds every year．
1.What causes children in the UK to be obese?
A．Eating ready meal B．Watching TV
C．Doing Internet shopping D．Being lazy
2.What can be inferred from the passage?
A．British people are too lazy to do anything．
B．Internet shopping will do harm to your health．
C．Many people would not run to catch a bus in Britain．
D．People should be more active and take regular exercise to keep fit．
3.Which of the following is Not true according to the passage?
A．One sixth of British people use remote control when watching TV．
B．People will benefit not only themselves but their families by getting fit．
C．Fatness can cause diseases such as heart disease and cancer．
D．More people get obesity-related illnesses now than 40 years ago．
4.What does the underlined word rudimentary most probably mean?
A．basic B．serious C．vital D．hard

科目：高中英語 來源：2010年安徽省高二上學期第一次段考英語卷 題型：閱讀理解
This is the age of being busy. Many of us live in busy places and have busy lives. Even the roads are busy as we try to get from here to there. Adults are busy going to jobs and taking care of their families. Kids are busy, too, going to school and doing a lot of homework after school and on weekends.
Busy isn’t bad, necessarily. If you are not busy enough you might be bored. But if you are too busy, you might break down. For example, if you have a soccer game that runs late on a school night and you haven’t eaten dinner or done your homework, that’s a not-so-fun kind of busy. We wanted to know what kids thought, so we did a kidsPoll about being busy with 882girls and boys aged 9 to 13.
Almost all of them said they felt stressed because they were too busy. About half said they felt this way once in a while or some of the time. But 17% said they felt this way most of the time and 24% said they felt this all the time! Oh dear, that’s no fun.
Only 4% of kids said they wanted less free time and 18% said they already had just the right amount. But, no big surprise, 61% of kids wish they had a lot more free time. If they had more time, most would spend it hanging out or playing with friends.
Often, adults plan large parts of a kid ’s day, especially during the school year. kids can’t tell their parents they’ll be skipping school(逃學) today to get more free time! But they can tell their parents they’d like to play a game or read a book during their free time instead of watching TV.
