Professors frown upon it yet conspi

32、re by squeezing vast topics like “Evolution“ or “World history 1914 to present“ into the last week of a course. So is cramming effective or not? A new study by UC-San Diego psychologists confirms what you may suspect deep down: The answer is no. Hurried memorization is a hopeless approach for retain

33、ing information. But its not all bad news. The team offers a precise formula for better study habits, and it doesnt necessarily need dogged discipline and routine.To arrive at their prescription, the scientists tested the “spacing effect“ on long-term memory. In other words, they wanted to know how

34、the time gap between study sessions influences the ability to remember material on test day. They asked 1,354 volunteers to memorize 32 trivial facts, such as “Who invented snow golf?.“ (Rudyard Kipling) and “What European nation consumes the most spicy Mexican food?“ (Norway). Participants reviewed

35、 the answers anywhere from several minutes to several months after first learning them, and then were tested up to a year later.The findings? Students perform better when they space their study sessions rather than when they try to cram everything into their heads during one sitting. But for those w

36、ho must cram, timing is everything. According to the researchers, if you have only one date on which to study, choose a day thats closer to when you first learned the material than when you take the test-but not too close. For instance, if you have a French lesson on Monday and a quiz the following

37、Monday, you should study on Wednesday for maximum retention. Tuesday is too early and Sunday is too late. If you want to remember something for a year, wait about a month to review what you learned.Hal Pashler, one of the lead authors, suspects that most crammers dont realize the error of their ways

38、. “Even in the scientific community, cram-type summer courses on new research methods are extremely popular,“ he told me in an email.

A. dividing the study session B. putting things into category C. choosing the optimal review time D. lengthening the review session（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(5).By mentioning the science community, Hal Pashler means to say that

42、 _.

43、e best title for the passage? A. Why People Cram? B. How to Cram C. New Definitions of Cramming D. Cramming-Not a Long-term Strategy（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.“I smoke for my health,“ I proclaimed in a newspaper article published in 1979. Since I am a doctor, this advice attracted amused attention. I reasoned

44、 that smoking made me cough and thus prevented pneumonia; smoking made my heart go faster and eliminated the need for special exercise; smoking restrained my appetite and kept me trim. And then, at 51, I had a heart attack.I knew the risk factors for early heart disease, high blood-cholesterol level

45、s and smoking. The first four were in my favor, but 1; chose to smoke.Strange how the evidence that linked smoking to heart disease appeared unclear to me, and how the same data now appear overwhelmingly convincing. Why stop now? Smokers who stop after their first heart attack have an 80-percent cha

46、nce of living ten more yearsif they dont, a 60-per cent chance.As a smoker, I always resented the fact that we smokers received only scorn from nonsmokers. How could nonsmokers know that smoking was bad for the health if there were no smokers to prove it? Being a member of the experimental group, ra

47、ther than the control group, deserves a certain measure of social appreciation. Ive done my time. Im now ready to be a control. No longer smoke for my health. My health cant stand the help.Will I miss the late-night trips to find a store thats still open and selling cigarettes? Will I miss searching through
