A man who has not had an opportunity to go swimming for years can 55 swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after several decades and still56 away. A mother who has not 57 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: 58 we have learned something, additional learning increases the 59 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 60 ourselves of poems such as “Twinkle, twinkle, little star61 .The law of over learning explains why cramming (突击学习) for an examination, 62 it may result in a passing grade, is not a 63 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.

European countries, realizing crisis is at hand, are providing great encouragement for parents to create more babies in the 21st century.Affairs Ministry concluded last year that, 65 cash encouragement, some women just don’t want to be 66 holding the baby. “What we know is that it’s good for the 67 if men and women share the burden of having children, says Soren Kindlund, family policy adviser at the Swedish ministry. 68 Swedish parents can take their paid leave as they wish, men use a mere 12% of it; 60% of fathers do not take even a(n) 69 day off work.Experts fear that the tendency for women to use most of the parental leave could make employers 70 to give young women the permanent jobs they need to qualify for paid maternity leave(产假). In January, Sweden decided to allow new fathers two months paid leave, with a warning: use it or 71 it.Kindlund admits that men are under 72 to stay at work, even though parental pay comes out of the public purse. “It’s not popular among bosses and perhaps with other m en in the workplace, 73a relationship. ”In Norway, a(n) 74 policy has worked wonders. 70% of dads in Norway now take parental leave, and the birthrate of 1. 85 children per woman is one of the highest in Europe.65.

2011届高考英语完形填空专项训练及答案详解【20篇】（一）The Ministry of Education has spared no efforts to bring on IT learning. What is its main aim? Is it to teach students how to learn the computer or is it meant to change the usual method of teaching in order to 1 studen ts’ strong interest in computers?Teaching students computer knowledge and skills is different 2 giving class lessons through the use of computers. And schools are beginning to pay much attention to using computers to teach students. There is 3 about the fact that IT learning plays an important role as a new teaching tool in this day of technology. 4 , views differ on whether the schools can achieve their targets, as success 5 whether they can make use of computers effectively.Let’s take the subject of Chinese as an example and see 6 difficulties the experts face in their IT management. At present, 20 percent of lessons are given with the help of computers. In other words, in a period of 10 weeks, a Chinese-language teacher must spend two weeks to teach the subject 7 .In carrying out such a major policy as IT learning, the experts should know the 8 that different teachers teaching different subjects have different demands, thus making it 9 to see the policy through.Some teachers, having already got some computer knowledge, will still be forced to 10 the training courses with those who have zero knowledge about computer.Another problem is that new teachers may be sent to work in schools 11 IT learning has just started. All teachers — including the seniors who are very 12 in teaching, but who suddenly have no idea what to do when it comes to computers will have to 13 from the very beginning. They will become 14 and their teaching performances may be badly affected. The experts have found out how much of each subject is taught by computers in every school, and have 15 all schools to complete the given work. A hard-pressed teacher may put the daily teaching 16 or the courses onto the computer just to order the required time for IT learning and then 17 the usual way. Furthermore, he may leave school work to his 18 through the computer before class comes to an end in order to “complete” his IT learning 19 . 20 the teaching of the Chinese language is concerned, do computer lessons really achieve the desire goals to raise the students’ leve l of Chinese, pass on common values and so on?

He always looks 2 up and down the streets of his neighborhood. He looks for anything3 such as strange cars, loud noises,4 windows, or people gathering on street comers.Tim 5 to a neighborhood watch group in Stoneville, Indiana, USA. The neighborhood watch group 6 on the third Wednesday of every month. That’s 7 .Tim gets together withabout ten of his neighbors to discuss community 8 . Members of the neighborhood watch group want to help the police 9 their homes, streets, and families safe.Tina Stedman, president of 10 neighborhood watch group, agrees with Tim.“People seem to think that crime happens to other people but not 11 them. Well, it’s never happened to me,” she said,“but I don’t think anyone has the 12 to steal from other people or to make them feel 13 sitting in their own homes.”Alex, a member of the group, said that all the neighbors 14 out for one another,“We 15 each other’s homes. We keep watch on the neighborhood at night and on weekends. Usually a16 of four or five of us goes out together. If something doesn’t look right, then we call the17 .

Sometimes they try to remember a solution from the last time they had a 1 problem. They often accept the opinion or ideas of other people. Other times they begin to act without thinking; they try to find a solution by trial and error. 2 , when all of these methods fail, the person with a problem has to start analyzing. There are six 3 in analyzing a problem.4 the person must recognize that there is a problem. For example, Sam’s bicycle is broken, and he cannot ride it to class as he usually does. Sam must5 that there is a problem with his bicycle.Next the person must find the problem. Before Sam can repair his bicycle, he must know why it does not work. For example, he must 6 the parts that are wrong.Now the person must look for 7 that will make the problem clearer and lead to 8 solutions. For example, suppose Sam decides that his bike does not work because there is something wrong with the brakes. 9 , he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about brakes, 10 his friends at the bike shop, or look at his brakes carefully.After 11 the problem, the person should have 12 suggestions for a possible solution.
