14、 difficult to imagine what life would be like without memory. The meanings of thousands of everyday perceptions, the basis for the decisions we make, and the roots of our habits and skills are to be found in our past experiences, which are brought into the present by memory. Memory can be defined as
15、 the capacity to keep information available for later use. It not only includes “remembering“ things like arithmetic(算术)or historical facts, but also involves any change in the way an animal typically behaves. Memory is involved when a rat gives up eating grain because he has sniffed(嗅出)something su
16、spicious in the grain pile. Memory exists not only in humans and animals but also in some physical objects and machines. Computers, for example, contain devices for storing data for later use. It is interesting to compare the memory storage capacity of a computer with that of a human being. The inst
17、ant access memory of a large computer may hold up to 100,000 “words“string of alphabetic or numerical charactersready for instant use. An average U. S. teenager probably recognizes the meaning of about 100,000 words of English. However, this is but a fraction of the total amount of information that
18、the teenager has stored. Consider, for example, the number of faces and places that the teenager can recognize on sight. The use of words is the basis of the advanced problem-solving intelligence of human beings. A large part of a person s memory is in terms of words and combinations of words. But w
19、hile language greatly expands the number and the kind of things a person can remember, it also requires a huge memory capacity. It may well be this capacity that distinguishes humans, setting them apart from other animals.（分数：10.00）(1).Which of the following is TRUE about memory?（分数：2.00）A.It helps
20、us perceive things happening around us every day.B.It is based on the decisions we made in the past.C.It is rooted in our past habits and skills.D.It connects our past experiences with the present.(2).According to the passage, memory is helpful in one s life in the following aspects EXCEPT that_.（分数
21、：2.00）A.it involves a change in one s behaviorB.it keeps information for later useC.it warns people not to do things repeatedlyD.it enables one to remember events that happened in the past(3).What is the author s view about computers and human beings in terms of intelligence?（分数：2.00）A.Computers hav
22、e better memory than a child does.B.Computers are as intelligent as a teenager is.C.Computers can understand as many as 100,000 words.D.Human beings are far superior to computers.(4).What is the major characteristic of mans memory capacity according to the author?（分数：2.00）A.It can be expanded by lan
23、guage.B.It can remember all the combined words.C.It may keep all the information in the past.D.It may change what has been stored in it.(5).Human beings make themselves different from other animals by_.（分数：2.00）A.having the ability to perceive dangerB.having a far greater memory capacityC.having the
24、 ability to recognize faces and places on sightD.having the ability to draw on past experiencesThat cold January night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco. There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theatre. With opening night only a week away, I was s
25、till learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me. As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I
26、 felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers. Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets. About a block from my apartment, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someon
27、e with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.
28、Suddenly I wasn t cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back where I d heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found. Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck pull up to the sidewalk next to m
29、e. When a voice called from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?“ I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eye. “Is this what youre looking for?“ he asked, holding up a small square shape. It was nearly 3 A. M
30、. by the time I got into bed. I wouldnt get much sleep that night, but I had gotten my wallet back. I also had gotten back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldn t be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.（分数：10.00）(1).How did the writer feel when she wa
31、s walking home after work?（分数：2.00）A.Cold and sick.B.Fortunate and helpful.C.Satisfied and cheerful.D.Disappointed and helpless.(2).From the first paragraph, we learn that the writer was busy_.（分数：2.00）A.solving her problem at the bankB.taking part in various city activitiesC.learning acting in an e

34、e friends with cleanersD.would give up her job at the bankIn the United States, elementary education begins at the age of six. At this stage nearly all the teachers are women, mostly married. The atmosphere is usually very friendly, and the teachers have now accepted the idea that the important thin
35、g is to make the children happy and interested. The old authoritarian(要绝对服从的)methods of education were discredited(不被认可)rather a long time ago so that many people now think that they have gone too far in the direction of trying to make children happy and interested rather than giving them actual ins
36、truction. The social education of young children tries to make them accept the idea that human beings in a society need to work together for their common good. So the emphasis is on cooperation rather than competition throughout most of this process. This may seem curious, in view of the fact that A
37、merican society is highly competitive: however, the need for making people sociable in this sense has come to be regarded as one of the functions of education. Most Americans do grow up with competitive ideas, and obviously quite a few as criminals, but it is not fair to say that the educational sys
38、tem fails. It probably does succeed in making most people sociable and ready to help one another both in material ways and through kindness and friendliness.（分数：10.00）(1).According to the passage, the U. S. elementary education is supposed to make children_.（分数：2.00）A.sensible and sensitiveB.competi

41、ciable“(Para. 2)most probably means_.（分数：2.00）A.fond of talking freelyB.friendly with other peopleC.concerned about social welfareD.happy at schoolBorrowing to start a business is not easy. Getting a bank loan, particularly for a new small business, is like going through the eye of a needle. Banks f
42、avor established business people with a solid credit rating and a large bank account. They should also have experience in the business they propose to enter, and offer well-prepared business plans that show the ability to repay the loans. If you are not such a person, then you need to double your pr
43、eparations to convince the banker to lend you that much needed start-up capital. If your business is new and small, bankers will need to know as much as possible about you and your business. However, many small business owners often make the mistake of not being well prepared when going to the bank
44、to apply for the loan. Surprisingly, many loan applicants don t even have the slightest idea how or when they intend to repay the money they request. Often they don t even know how much money they need. When asked how much money they want to borrow, many people give these two common responses: “How
45、much money can I get?“ and “As much as possible. “ Is it any wonder that lenders say no? So the most important thing is do your homework before you ask for a loan.（分数：10.00）(1).By saying “Getting a bank loan. is like going through the eye of a needle“ , the writer emphasizes_.（分数：2.00）A.the ability
