【題目】 When you are sitting in class, have you ever drawn pictures in the margins (頁(yè)邊的空白處) of your notebooks? If so, you are doodling. Many people think of doodling as a distraction (分心) from more important things. But it might be just the opposite.

One study shows that doodling may help you remember things you hear 29% more. Besides, doodling can help you think creatively. Walking away from a problem to draw might actually help you solve it. When you come back, you’ll have a fresh perspective and figure out an answer more quickly.

An author named Sunni Brown wrote a book on doodling. She argues that doodling is a tool that can help people think. In fact, she runs a business that helps companies improve organization and planning through doodling. Brown believes doodling is helpful because it includes many ways of learning. You learn in four ways: seeing, hearing, reading or writing, and through movement. The more ways you use, the better you learn. And when you doodle while listening to a lecture, you use all four.

You might think that being good at drawing is important for doodling. But if the point of doodling is to help you think, then it doesn’t matter what the picture looks like. Even if you’re not an artist, doodling can help you. So next time you need help focusing, pick up a pen and doodle away!

1The passage mainly tells us the ________ of doodling.

A. advantagesB. disadvantages

C. effectsD. problems

2What does the underlined word “perspective” probably mean in Paragraph 2?

A. 體驗(yàn)B. 觀點(diǎn)

C. 困擾D. 機(jī)會(huì)

3How does Sunni Brown feel about doodling?

A. It helps remember better.B. It helps think creatively.

C. It involves four ways of learning.D. It needs drawing skills.

4According to the text, it is helpful to doodle when ________.

A. you want to focus your attention.B. you have a conversation.

C. you wonder in the park.D. you watch a movie.

5Where is the passage possibly taken from?

A. A book review.B. A message board.

C. A student textbook.D. A science magazine.

5D

【解析】

這是一篇議論文。通過(guò)一項(xiàng)研究和一位作家的觀點(diǎn),證明了涂鴉對(duì)于提高人們的記憶以及幫助人們思考都有積極的影響。

1推理判斷題。由第一段“Many people think of doodling as a distraction (分心) from more important things. But it might be just the opposite.”第二段“One study shows that doodling may help you remember things you hear 29% more. Besides, doodling can help you think creatively”第三段“ She argues that doodling is a tool that can help people think”可知,許多人認(rèn)為涂鴉會(huì)分散人們對(duì)更重要事物的注意力。但可能恰恰相反。一項(xiàng)研究表明,涂鴉可以幫助你記住29%以上聽到的東西。此外,涂鴉可以幫助你創(chuàng)造性地思考。此外涂鴉是一種可以幫助人們思考的工具。所以通過(guò)短文所闡述的主要觀點(diǎn)我們可以判斷出短文主要在告訴我們涂鴉的優(yōu)勢(shì)。故A選項(xiàng)正確。

2詞義猜測(cè)題。由第二段“Walking away from a problem to draw might actually help you solve it. When you come back, you’ll have a fresh perspective and figure out an answer more quickly.”可知,從一個(gè)問(wèn)題中抽身出來(lái)畫畫實(shí)際上可能會(huì)幫助你解決問(wèn)題。當(dāng)你再回到問(wèn)題上來(lái)時(shí),你會(huì)有一個(gè)全新的視角,更快地找到答案。所以第2段加下劃線的“perspective”一詞可能的是“觀點(diǎn)”的意思。故B選項(xiàng)正確。

3細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第三段“Brown believes doodling is helpful because it includes many ways of learning. You learn in four ways: seeing, hearing, reading or writing, and through movement.”可知,Brown 認(rèn)為涂鴉是有幫助的,因?yàn)樗ㄔS多學(xué)習(xí)方法。你可以通過(guò)四種方式學(xué)習(xí):看、聽、讀或者寫,以及通過(guò)運(yùn)動(dòng)。所以 Sunni Brown 對(duì)涂鴉的看法是涂鴉包括四種學(xué)習(xí)方法。故C選項(xiàng)正確。

4細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由最后段“ Even if you’re not an artist, doodling can help you. So next time you need help focusing, pick up a pen and doodle away!”可知,即使你不是藝術(shù)家,涂鴉也可以幫助你。所以下次你需要集中注意力的時(shí)候,拿起一支筆,信手涂鴉吧!所以,當(dāng)你想要集中注意力時(shí),涂鴉對(duì)你集中注意力是有幫助的。故A選項(xiàng)正確。

5推理判斷題。通讀全文可知,通過(guò)一項(xiàng)研究和一位作家的觀點(diǎn),證明了涂鴉對(duì)于提高人們得記憶以及幫助人們思考都有積極的影響。所以作者對(duì)于涂鴉的觀點(diǎn)與我們普遍認(rèn)為涂鴉會(huì)分散人的注意力的觀點(diǎn)恰恰截然想法。短文向讀者科普的涂鴉的優(yōu)勢(shì)具有一定的科學(xué)性。所以判斷出短文可能來(lái)源科學(xué)雜志。故D選項(xiàng)正確。
