We did that last summer. And what an experience it was ! When we got there, we put up our tent and went to explore. As we returned, we heard our daughter Susie cry out. And then we saw a bear enter Our Camp. Tom wanted his father to chase him away. His father Said, ''No. It's dangerous to chase a bear. And don’t let him ch ase you.'' Susie said, ''What shall we do? Maybe we ought to climb a tree .'' Tom Said, ''No. We've got to get him out of there. He might go to sleep in our tent.” Maybe we could make him leave if we put some honey outside for him to eat.'' Susie suggested. Then I said,''How are you going to get the honey? It’s in the tent.'' We watched the bear entered the tent and heard him upset everything inside. “ It's foolish for us to try to catch him,“ said my husband “Leave him alone and wait for him to come out” We waited, but the bear stayed inside.

I swear this weekend I‘m going to study sixteen hours a day both Saturday and Sunday.W: Whoa, big guy. That‘s not the way. Follow the principle of ―Distributes Practice‖.

They explained to the doctor about the problems they were having with their memory. After checking the couple over, the doctor told them that they were physically okay but might need to start writing things down to help them remember. The couple thanked the doctor and left.Later that night while watching TV, the old woman said to the old man, ―Honey, will you please go to the kitchen and get me a dish of ice cream?‖Before the man left, she added, ―Why don‘t you write that down so you won‘t forget?‖―Nonsense,‖ said the husband, ―I can remember a dish of ice cream!‖―Well,‖ said the wife, ―I‘d like some strawberries on it. You‘d better write that down because I know your memory is faili ng.‖―Don‘t be silly,‖ replied the husband. ―There‘re only two things: a dish of ice cream and some strawberries. I can surely remember that!‖With that, he rushed into the kitchen. After about twenty minutes he returned from the kitchen and handed her a plate of bacon and eggs.The wife took one look at the plate, glanced up at her husband, and said, ―Hey, you forget the toast!‖Keys: FTFFFTask3: Memory-Improving TechniquesScriptThere are many techniques you can use to improve your memory. Some of them are introduced her.First and foremost, you need to stimulate your memory all the time. To put it simply, you should use your memory as much as possible. It is especially important to try to learn something new. If you work in an office, learn to dance; if you are a dancer, 3learn to deal with a computer, if you work with sales, and learn to play chess; if you are a programmer, learn to paint. These added activities stimulate the brain so that I t continues to function.Older people need to pay attention t o things they are dealing with. Don‘t try to memorize everything that catches your attention; focus on what you consider important. For example, you can take any object such as a pen and concentrate on it. Think on its various characteristics: its material, its function, its color, and so on. Don‘t allow any other thought to occupy your mind while you are concentrating in that pen.Another method that can be used is to relax yourself. It is impossible to remember things if you are tense or nervous.So, try holding your breath for ten seconds, and then release it slowly. Association is also a powerful tool to develop your memory. For example, if you cannot remember a person‘s name, you can think about a special feature of his face and then link it with his mane.1. What‘s seems to be an especially important way to stimulate one‘s memory?2. What seems to be the best way to focus your memory?3. How can you concentrate on a pen?4.

Let’s TalkScriptStudent: Professor, thank you for graining me this in terview. I‘m Susan, a reporterfrom the Student Union magazine. Many students have difficultly memorizing things. Since you?re an outstanding psychologist, could you give us some tips on how top improve our memory?Professor: Well, some people have better memories than others, but that‘s largelybecause they are better at creating mental images.Student: If I‘m not good at creating images, what can I do?Professor: Practice helps. And the mind remembers things better if they areconnected with other images. For example, I you have to pick up several items at the grocery store, say, carrots, egg, bananas, and milk, you can create a picture in your mind of a giant carrot, and hanging from it, a banana.Student: Then I could have a giant milk carton pouring milk over the carrot andbanana.Professor: Certainly. Then what would you do with the egg?Student: Hmmm. I‘d visualize an egg-shaped UFO flying across the sky. Professor: There you go. The more you apply the ideas, the easier it gets. Besidescreating pictu res, there‘s another technique that is very useful.Student: What is it?Professor: Establishing an association. Suppose you are looking for lost keys.Relax, and let your mind look for all the images connected with thosekeys--their feel, the sounds they make.Student: How will that help?Professor: You might remember the sound the keys made when you placed then ina drawer or cold touch of the keys in your jacket were you left them. Student: Oh my gosh! I have to run. It‘s time my English class. I see an image ofmy teacher staring at my empty seat in the classroom. Many thanks, Professor.Professor: Not at all, and good luck with your memory.8DiscussionSAMPLEA: As we just heard from the interview, the technique of associating certainlyimportant in promoting memory.B: And according to the interview, creating images helps remember things. If your shopping list includes eggs, you might visualize an egg or an egg-shaped UFO flying across.A: Another important factor in improving memory can be of interest. If you get interested in something, you can remember it better.B: Yeah. And if you recognize facts into meaningful groups, you can remember them better. For instance, if you want to memorize all the names of American presidents, it is not easy. If, however, you arrange them chronologically into three periods:9those before Abraham Lincoln, those between Abraham Lincoln and Franklin Roosevelt, and those after, then the task will be less difficult.A: It is common sense that if you glance at something quickly, you tend to forget it quickly. If you stuffy it slowly, you can remember it better.B: Another technique is intensive practice or repeating. As a saying goes, practice makes perfect. If you repeat something again and again, you will eventually learn it by heart.A: But we should not work too hard. When we get tired, our learning efficiency declines. We need breaks so the mind can rest and absorb what has been learned.VI. Further Listening and SpeakingTask1: The Role Memory Plays in Our LifeScriptSince memory plays a significant role in our life, scrientists are increasingly interested in research on how to improver memory, Here are some factors they believe to be important to expanding memory capacity. To begin with, you must take special care in your daily life. Food for example, is very important. Some vitamins are essential foe your memory to work properly. They are found in bread, cereal, vegetables and fruits. Some experts say that synthesizes vitamins improve memory, but others have doubts about this, arguing that the studies have not confirmed they do work. Another essential factor is water. It helps to maintain the memory systems, especially in older persons. According to Dr. Roswell, lack of water in the body has an immediate and strong effect on memory; it can cause confusion and other thought difficulties. Sleep also plays a significant role. To be able to have a goof memory, we must allow the brain to have plenty of rest. While sleeping, the brain no longer controls the senses, and starts to revise and store the information one has receives. Lack of sleep would make one feel exhausted and would weaken one‘s ability to concentrate. Also, one‘ ability to store information would be affected.1. What is the passage mainly about?2. Why are foods important in promoting memory according to the passage?3. To whom is water especially important in maintaining the memory system?4. What problem can a lack of water cause?5. Why is sleep important to memory?Keys: 1.A 2.B 3.D 4.D 5.C10Task 2: Where did the professor go?ScriptThis is a story, while happened to friends of ours in a small town in South Africa. They were a hospitable couple who often their neighbors for drinks, tea or dinner. On this spring night, they have invited a professor to super. During the evening, it began to with rain, and the heavens really Because he had walked there, they offered to put him up for the night. They pointed out that . He agreed on the soundness of that idea, thanked his hosts profusely, and the matter seemed to be settled. But while they were No one could find him anywhere. Eventually, after40 minutes, the front door bell rang. There was the professor, soaked to the skin. When he was asked what on earth he has been dong in the rain, he replied thatTask3: How to Remember NamesScriptYou just called the TV repair shop, and the voice on the other end of the line tells you, ―This is Don Smith‖.About 5 minutes later you tell your wife that ―this guy‖will be out to fix the TV in the morning. You can‘t think of his mane although you know he mentioned it on the phone.This happens all the time to just about any of us unless we have learned to concentrate and implant a name in our memory, right at the time we hear it. To do this, you must make a habit of repeating the name back to the person. This action will remind you to store the name in your ―memory bank‖ each time you hear someone‘s name, and within a short time the ―repeating‖ process can be discontinued11When you meet someone in person, use the same procedure, and in addition, visualize something different, unusual or ridiculous about hid or her appearance, position, or actions that ―ties in ―with his or her name. Later, you may write the descriptive information on one side of a card andthe name in the other si de. Look at it repeatedly, see the ―picture‖ in your mind‘s eye as you look at the name; or when you see he name, visualize the ―picture‖ you have assigned to the name.Getting this system to work will require changes in your thinking, and it may take several days or several weeks to become proficient.News ReportA Dolphin ExhibitionScriptA recent art exhibition in Florida honored the animal often seen as man‘s most friend, the dolphin.The ―Dolphins on Parade‖ exhibition in the Florida Keys featured life-sized decorates dolphin made of wood and the cost of materials. The dolphins were at area business and along the beach. Sponsors paid U.S. $750 to the artists‘ fee and the cost of materials.There were more than 100 dolphin themes, a beer-belly dolphin.

Here, according to education experts and students themselves are the secrets of super-achievers.First, they know how to set priorities. Top students allow no intrusions on study time. Once the books are open or the computer is turned on, phone calls go unanswered, TV shows unwatched, snacks ignored. Study is business, and business comes before 15recreation.Also, good students can study anywhere and everywhere. Claudia Hill, an Arizona State University business professor recalls a cross-country runner who worked out every day. Hill persuaded him to use his spare time to memorize biology term. Then he posted a list of biology terms on the mirror in the bathroom. He learned a few terms every day while brushing his teeth. Eventually, he scored high on the final examination. Moreover, top students schedule their time well. Study times are strictly a matter of personal preference. Some work late at night when the house is quiet. Others awake early. Still others study as soon as they come homefrom school when the work is fresh in their minds. All agreed, however, on the need for consistency. A student says, ―Whatever I was doing, I maintained a certain period of time every day for studying.‖ Another important characteristic of super-achievers is that they know hoe to read, According to a bo ok entitled Getting Straight A‘s, the secret of good reading is to be ―an active reader-one who continually asks questions that lead toa full understanding of the author‘s message‖.6. Which of the following is NOT mentioned about super—achievers starting to study?7. What did the cross-country runner do to score high on the exam?8. What is the good thing all top students agree on?9. What does the speaker mean by ―an active reader‖?10. What is the main idea of the passage?Kes: 1B 2.C3. D 4.A 5.DIV.

People are becoming more aware of environmental issues and are seeking ways to reduce their carbon footprint. One way to do this is by using renewable energy sources, such as solar or wind power. By making small changes in our daily lives, we can all play a part in protecting the planet for future generations.Passage 2Many companies are now offering employees the option to work remotely. This trend has been accelerated by the COVID-19pandemic, as more people are working from home than ever before. While there are benefits to remote work, such as increased flexibility and reduced commuting time, there are also challenges, such as feelings of isolation and difficulty in separating work and personal life.Passage 3The rise of social media has transformed the way we communicate and connect with others. Platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram allow us to stay in touch with friends and family, share updates about our lives, and discover new interests. However, there are concerns about the impact of social media on mental health, with studies suggesting that excessive use can lead to feelings of loneliness and anxiety.I hope this information helps in preparing for the upcoming CET-6 exam.

It is a large international company, which provided a trainee program for people from university and, well that was my first job, trainee marketing manager.Interviewer: what exactly did you do?Emily: well, the program lasted 18 months.
