Spilich put young non-smoke

18、rs, active smokers and smokers deprived(被剥夺 ) of cigarettes through a series of tests. In the first test, each subject(试验对象 ) sat before a computer screen and pressed a key as soon as he or she recognized a target letter among a group of 96. In this simple test, smokers, deprived smokers and non smo

19、kers performed equally well. The next test was more complex, requiring all to scan sequences of 20 identical letters and respond the instant one of the letters transformed into a different one. Non-smokers were the fast, but under the stimulation of nicotine(尼古丁 ), active smokers were faster than de

20、prived smokers. In the third test of short-term memory, non-smokers made the fewest errors, but deprived smokers committed fewer errors than active smokers. The fourth test required people to read a passage, then answer questions about it. Nonsmokers remembered 19 percent more of the most important

21、information than active smokers, and deprived smokers bested those who had smoked a cigarette just before testing. Active smokers tended not only to have poorer memories but also bad trouble separating important information from insignificant details. “As our tests became more complex,“ sums up Spil

22、ich, “non-smokers performed better than smokers by wider and wider margins.“ He predicts, “Smokers might perform adequately at many jobs until they got complicated. A smoking airline pilot could fly adequately if no problems arose, but if something went wrong, smoking might damage his mental capacit

23、y.“ 36 The purpose of George Spilicbs experiments is _. （ A） to test whether smoking has a positive effect on the mental capacity of smokers （ B） to show how smoking damages peoples mental capacity （ C） to prove the smoking affects peoples regular performance （ D） to find out whether smoking helps p

24、eoples short-term memory 37 George Spilichs experiment was conducted in such a way as to _. （ A） compel the subjects to separate major information from minor details （ B） put the subjects through increasingly complex tests （ C） check the effectiveness of nicotine on smokers （ D） register the prompt

26、ly than the other subjects. （ C） Non-smokers were not better than other subjects in performing simple tests. （ D） Deprived smokers gave the slowest responses to the various tasks. 40 We can infer from the last paragraph that _. （ A） smokers should not expect to become airline pilots （ B） smoking in

27、emergency cases causes mental illness （ C） no airline pilots smoke during flights （ D） smokers may prove unequal to handling emergency cases Task 2 Directions: This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45. 41 There are two kinds of memory, shor

28、t-term and long-term. Information in long-term memory can be remembered at a later time when it is needed. The information may be kept for days or weeks. However, information in short-term memory is kept for only a few seconds, usually by repeating the information over and over. The following experi

29、ment shows how short-term memory has been studied. Henning studied how students who are learning English as a second language remember vocabulary. The subjects in his experiment were 75 college students. They represented all levels of ability in English: beginning, intermediate, and native-speaking

30、students. To begin, the subjects listened to a recording of a native speaker reading a paragraph in English. Following the recording, the subjects took an is-question test to see which words hey remembered. Each question had four choices. The subjects had to circle the word they had heard in the rec

31、ording. Some of the questions had four choices that sound alike. For example, weather, whether, wither, and wetter are four words that sound alike. Some of the questions had four choices that have the same meaning. Method, way, manner, and system would be four words with the same meaning. Finally th

32、e subjects took a language proficiency test. Henning found that students with a lower proficiency in English made more of their mistakes on words that sound alike; students with a higher proficiency made more of their mistakes on words that have the same meaning. Hennings results suggest that beginn

33、ing students hold the sound of words in their short-term memory, and advanced students hold the meaning of words in their short-term memory. 41 Henning made the experiment in order to study _. （ A） how students remember English vocabulary by short-term memory （ B） how students learn English vocabula

34、ry （ C） how to develop students ability in English （ D） how long information in short-term memory is kept 42 Which of the following statements is TURE according to the passage? （ A） Information in short-term memory is different from that in long-term memory. （ B） Long-term memory can be achieved onl

35、y by training. （ C） It is easier to test short-term memory than long-term memory. （ D） Henning gave a separate test on vocabulary to his students. 43 From Hennings result we can see that _. （ A） beginners have difficulty distinguishing the pronunciation of words （ B） advanced students remember words

36、 by their meaning （ C） it is difficult to remember words that sound alike （ D） it is difficult to remember words that have the same meaning 44 The word “subject“ in the passage means _. （ A） memory （ B） the theme of listening material （ C） a branch of knowledge studied （ D） the student experimented

38、riefly (in no more than 3 words) on the blanks. 46 There is an old saying in English: “Laughter is the best medicine“. Until recently, few people took the saying very seriously. Now, however, doctors have begun to investigate laughter and the effects it has on the human body. They have found evidenc

39、e that laughter really can improve peoples health. Tests were carded out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films, while doctors checked their heart rate, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise. It in

40、creases blood pressure, the heart rate and the rate of breathing; it also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial. Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be capable of reducing the effect of pain on t

41、he body. There is also some evidence to suggest that laughter helps the bodys immune system, that is, the system which fights infection. As a result of these discoveries, some doctors and psychiatrists(精神病学家 ) in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they try to improve their patient

42、s condition by encouraging them to laugh. 1) Laughter really can【 46】 . 2) In the first test, it was found that laughter has similar effects to【 47】 . 3) Other tests have shown that laughter can reduce the effect of【 48】 on the body. 4) There is evidence to show that laughter helps the bodys【 49】 .
