A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins“ Twinkle, twinkle, little star〞 and remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows. Once we have learned something, learning over and over again increases the length of time we will remember it.In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and make ourselves remember words such as “Twinkle, twinkle, little star〞 and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but overlearn.The multiplication tables (乘法口诀表) are an exception (例外) to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.The law of overlearning explains why cramming (突击学习) for an examination, though it may lead to a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he may soon forget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary for one’s future development.41. What is the main idea of paragraph 1?A. People remember well what they learned in childhood.B. Children have a better memory than grown-ups.C. Poem reading is a good way to learn words.D. Stories for children are easy to remember.42. The author explains the law of overlearning by ______.A. showing research findingsB. setting down general rulesC. making a comparisonD. using examples43. According to the author, being able to use multiplication tables is ______.A. a result of overlearningB. a special case of crammingC. a skill to deal with maths problemsD. a basic step towards future studies44. What is the author’s opinion on crammin g?A. It leads to failure in college exams.B. It’s helpful only in a limited way.C. It’s possible to result in poor memory.D. It can increase stdents’ interestBSu Hua is studying at Cambridge, UKIntroductionA lot of crime is against bicycles. About 150,000 bicycles are stolen every year and most are never found. You can prevent this happening by following a few careful steps. Basic SecurityDo not leave your bicycle in out-of-the-way places. Always lock your bicycle when you leave. Secure it to lampposts or trees. Take off smaller parts and take them with you, for example lights and saddles(车座).LocksGet a good lock. There are many different types in the shop. Buy one that has been tested against attack. Ask for a recommendation from a bike shop.MarkingSecurity marking your bike can act as a deterrent(威慑) to a thief. It can also help the police find your bicycle. It should be clearly written and include your postcode and your house or flat number. This will provide a simple way to identify your bicycle. RegistrationThere are a number of companies who will mark your bicycle for you. They will then put your registration number and personal details on their computer database. Then if your bicycle is found it will be easy to contact you.FinallyKeep a record of the bicycle yourself: its make, model and registration number. You can even take a photograph of it, this will prove the bicycle belongs to you.45. Which part of the article gives you information on how to lock up your bicycle when you leave it?A. LocksB. MarkingC. RegistrationD. Basic Security46. The article advises you to keep a record of your bicycle ____________.A. in the bike shop and your computerB. in a police station and security companyC. in a security company and your universityD. by yourself and in a security company47. Which of the following statements is true?A. More than 150,000 bicycles are stolen every year.B. Leave your bicycle in out-of-the-way places.C. Taking a photograph of your bike will help prove the bicycle belongs to you.D. Always lock your bicycle even if you don’t leave.48. The main purpose of this article is _____________.A. to tell you what to do if your bicycle is stolenB. to suggest ways of keeping your bicycle safeC. to give you advice on where to buy a good lockD. to say why you shouldn’t keep your bicycle in a quiet placeCFriends play a very important part in everyone’s life. Friendship usually develops during childhood. New friends are made when you progress through school. Those friends that you make as a student can usually last long. Friends influence your development, maturity (成熟) and sense of responsibility. A familiar expression is “you can tell a lot about a person by knowing who his friends are.〞 Friendship is based on common interests. If you like sports, most of your friends are likely to be athletic. If you enjoy reading and shopping, most of your friends do the same. Some people call you their friends for the wrong reason. These p eople are not really friends. They are only “friends〞 on the outside, not the insidewhere it counts. They only want to be your friends if it is to their advantage. True friends are there whether you are rich or poor. It is easy to have many so-called “fri ends〞 if you are rich. By this time you should be able to separate your friends into the real or the “false〞.True friends are most special. They are also difficult to find. You can consider yourself very lucky if you have one true friend. This friend is eager to help you whenever necessary. He or she knows you would do the same for them. A true friend is someone you can talk to about any subject or problem. You and your true friend have good understanding of each other. True friends support you, take your side, and build up your confidence.49. “So-called〞 friends refer to ________ .A. fair-weather friendsB. those who want to benefit from youC. the friends who are on the surface onlyD. all of the above50. Which of the following is NOT true?A. You should tell true friends from false ones.B. True friendship is too difficult to find.C. You can share your joys and sorrows with a true friend.D. A true friend will stand by you whatever happens.51. The proper title for this article may be “ 〞.A. FriendlinessB. What friends likeC. True FriendsD. So-called FriendsDTwo Chinese living in South Africa were killed in a robbery (抢劫) on February 5, bringing the total number of Chinese killed in the country to four in less than a month.Chen Jianqing, 35, from Southeast China's FujianProvince, who ran a shop with her husband in a small town 45 kilometers away from South African capital Johannesburg, was shot dead.

When groups of men and women watch a movie together, the men usually end up telling the women to shut up.Men can either talk or watch the screen — they can’t do both —and they don’ t understand that women can. Besides, women consider that the point of all getting together is to have a good time and develop relationships — not just to sit there like couch potatoes staring at the screen.During the ad breaks, a man often asks a woman to explain the plot and tell him where the relationship between the characters is going. He is unable, unlike women, to read the subtle body language signals that reveal how the characters are feeling emotionally. Since women originally spent their days with the other women and children in the group, they developed the ability to communicate successfully in order to maintain relationships. For a woman, speech continues to have such a clear purpose: to build relationships and make friends. For men, to talk is to relate the facts.Men see the telephone as a communication tool for sending facts and information to other people, but a woman sees it as a means of bonding. A woman can spend two weeks on vacation with her girlfriend and, when she returns home, telephone the same girlfriend and talk for another two hours.There is no convincing evidence that social conditioning, the fact that girls’ mothers talked to them more, is thereason why girls talk more than boys. Psychiatrist Dr Michael Lewis, author of Social Beha v iour and Language Acquisition, conducted experiments that found mothers talked to, and looked at, baby girls more often than baby boys. Scientific evidence shows parents respond to the brain bias of their children. Since a girl’ s brain is better organized to send and receive speech, we therefore talk to them more. Consequently, mothers who try to talk to their sons are usually disappointed to receive only short grunts in reply.1.While watching TV with others, women usually talk a lot because they________.A. are afraid of awkward silence with their families and friendsB. can both talk and watch the screen at the same timeC. think they can have a good time and develop relationshipsD. have to explain the plot and body language to their husbands2.After a vacation with her girlfriend, a woman would talk to her again on the phone for hours in order to________.A. experience the happy time againB. keep a close tie with herC. recommend her a new scenic spotD. remind her of something forgotten3.What does the author want to tell us most?A.

Women Love to TalkD. Men Talk Differently from WomenB(2008年安徽)When I was a child, I often dreamed of the time when I could leave home and escape to the city. We lived on a farm and,in the winter especially, we were quite cut off from the outside world. As soon as I left school, I packed my bags and moved to the capital. However, I soon discovered that city life has its problems too.One big disadvantage is money—it costs so much to go out,not to mention basics like food and housing. Another disadvantage is pollution. I suffer from asthma (哮喘), and at times the air is so bad that I am afraid to go outside. Then there is the problem of traveling round. Although I have a car, I seldom use it because of the traffic jams. One choice is to go by bicycle,but that can be quite dangerous.Of course there are advantages. First, there is so much to do in the city,whatever your tastes in culture or entertainment (娱乐活动). Besides, there are wonderful jobs and greater chances of moving to a more important job or position. Finally,if you like shopping, the variety of goods is very surprising—and, what is more, shops are often only a short walk away.Is life better then,in the city? Perhaps it is,when you are in your teens(十几岁)or twenties. However, as you get older,and especially if you have small children, the peace of the countryside may seem preferable. I certainly hope to move back there soon.5. What was the writer always thinking about when he was a child?A. Staying on the farm.B. Moving to the countryside.C. Leaving home for the city.D.
