22、ck of attention, says Schacter. “Youre supposed to remember something, but you havent encoded it deeply.“ Encoding, Schacter explains, is a special way of paying attention to an event that has a major impact on recalling it later. Failure to encode properly can create annoying situations. If you put

23、 your mobile phone in a pocket, for example, and dont pay attention to what you did because youre involved in a conversation, youll probably forget that the phone is in the jacket now hanging in your wardrobe(衣柜 ). “Your memory itself isnt failing you,“ says Schacter. “Rather, you didnt give your me

24、mory system the information it needed.“ Lack of interest can also lead to absent-mindedness. “A man can recite sports statistics from 30 years ago, “says Zelinski, “may not remember to drop a letter in the mailbox “Women have slightly better memories than men, possibly because they pay more attentio

25、n to their environment. and memory relies on just that. Visual cues can help prevent absent-mindedness, says Schacter. “But be sure the cue is clear and available, “he cautions. If you want to remember to take a medication (药物 ) with lunch, put the pill bottle on the kitchen table-dont leave it in t

26、he medicine chest and write yourself a note that you keep in a pocket. Another common episode of absent-mindedness: walking into a room and wondering why youre there. Most likely, you were thinking about something else. “Everyone does this from time to time,“ says Zelinski. The best thing to do is t

27、o return to where you were before entering the room, and youll likely remember. 38 Why does the author think that encoding properly is very important? （ A） It helps us understand our memory system better. （ B） It enables us to recall something from our memory. （ C） It expands our memory capacity con

The movement itself is caused by the pull of sheets and cords of very tough tissu

32、e(组织 ) called muscle. Muscle tissue has the special ability to shorten itself so that the bone on which it pulls has to move. When muscle tissue shortens, it also bunches up (凸起 ). Muscle tissue covers the body in sheets, and bands that lie between the skin and the skeleton. The bones are the framew

33、ork of the body, but the muscles fill out the body shape. Most muscles extend from one bone to another. When the muscle between the bones shortens, one bone has to move. The point where the muscle is fastened to the unmoving bone is called the origin of the muscle, whereas the point where the muscle

34、 is fastened to the bone that is to be moved is called the insertion. Sometimes the muscle is not attached directly to the bone but to a tough, non-stretchable cord, or tendon that is attached to the bone. Muscles do not push; they can only pull. To bend the arm at the elbow the muscle at the front

35、of the upper arm has to shorten and bunch up. To unbend the arm, other muscles in the back of the arm have to shorten. These two sets of muscles-the front and back-are said to act in opposition to each other. When one set is working, the other set is usually relaxed. But there are times when both of

36、 them work. Sometimes muscles are called upon to do more than simply pull in one direction. They may have to perform a turning motion. To be able to do this, the muscle must be attached to the bone at an angle. By pulling, the muscle can cause the bone to pivot. 43 According to the passage, movement

37、 occurs when a muscle_. （ A） grows （ B） shortens （ C） relaxes （ D） pushed 44 The point at which a muscle is attached to the bone that movies is called the_. （ A） source （ B） insertion （ C） tendon （ D） diaphragm 45 The phrase “called upon “in line 12 is closest in meaning to which of the following? （

38、 A） Required. （ B） Visited. （ C） Permitted. （ D） Subjected. 46 The passage implies that reversing the muscle-bone movement used to bend an arm requires_. （ A） the relaxation of two sets of muscles （ B） the use of different muscles （ C） a different kind of tissue （ D） the enlargement of the muscle 47

39、 Why are some muscles attached to bones at an angle? （ A） To cause the muscles to push. （ B） To strengthen the muscles. （ C） To shorten tissues. （ D） To perform a turning action. 47 Research has shown that motivation is very important in learning a language; you need to be enthusiastic about it, and

40、 to be interested in it. Different people will have different motives-the desire for promotion, the hope of being able to study abroad, curiosity about a very different culture, and pure intellectual enjoyment are only some of the possible motives. But actually wanting to learn is the most important

41、 motive of all. Courage is an essential attribute in learning a language. It takes a lot of courage to speak a foreign language either in front of your friends or to native speakers, bat dont be afraid of making mistakes-that is the way we learn. Nowadays there are many different forms of English, e

42、ach with its own constructions and accent, and, so long as you can make yourself understood and can understand what is said to you, you have succeeded in communicating, which is the purpose of any language. Curiosity is not only a possible motivation. It is also a great help in your learning. Rememb

43、er that a language is not just a grammatical system, it is the outcome of a certain culture or different cultures. It is no good learning strings of words and lists of grammatical tales unless you know as much as possible about the background of the language, so that you can understand the ideas wic

44、h are being conveyed, the references which are being made, the inferences Which can be drawn from the information explicitly given. So learn as much as you can about the different cultures which influence English-watch television programmes, listen to tile radio, try to obtain newspapers and magazin

45、es which are written by native speakers, look at advertisements, and above all, read-not textbooks, but novels and poems and plays. They will show you how language is really used. The English language is not an abstract system; it is a living form of expression which derives much of its meaning from

46、 the context in which it is used, and much of its effect from a whole network of extra-linguistic knowledge. If you live in a country where English is the native language, you acquire this knowledge naturally, just as in China you acquire your own cultural knowledge unconsciously. But because you ar

47、e unlikely to be able to visit countries where English is spoken as the native language, you have to make a conscious effort to acquire this cultural awareness and knowledge. 48 With what topic is this passage primarily concerned? （ A） Curiosity in Learning a Language. （ B） Courage in Learning a Lan
