All young people dream of travelling the world. They are excited and very eager to see new sights. However, they have little idea how they would really do it if given the chances. Because their knowledge of geography is quite limited, they seldom know much about the places they wish to visit or how they would get there.
Already hundreds of thousands of Chinese student tourists are visiting these places — Wuyi, Lhasa, Lijiang, Dali, Vientiane and Phnom Penh. Indeed, these students will soon be the most travelled generation in China’s long history. The World Tourist Organization predicts that a quarter of a century from now the number of Chinese tourists going abroad will be twenty times what it is today. The largest percentage of these tourists will visit Southeast Asia. Not all Chinese who travel abroad will be tourists, however. More and more youths are deciding to volunteer their skills in this region, much like their peers in the Peace Corps and VSO.
Critical thinking skills required include planning for a trip and solving problems after the trip has begun. The focus is on how to read an atlas (地图集) to make travel plans and how to find ways of travelling. An atlas offers a wealth of information about geography and is one way to increase students’ awareness of their global environment. The use of an atlas especially addresses the needs of students with different visual and spatial (空间的) learning styles.

A. all young people wish to travel around the world
B. all young people love travelling, however, their geographical knowledge is limited

B. The number of Chinese tourists going abroad will be twenty times what it is today in about twenty five years.

D. Chinese people travel abroad to relax themselves.
30. One way to increase students’ awareness of their global environment is for them to __________.
A. watch TV B. listen to radio news
C. plan a trip D. read the maps

The sun is setting, brightening your kids’ faces as they play in the waves. You reach for your phone for this perfect moment. But before you do, here’s a bit of surprising science: Taking photos is not the perfect way to keep memory as you think.
Taking too many pictures could actually harm the brain’s ability to keep memories, says Elizabeth Loftus, a psychology professor at the University of California. So we get the photo but kind of lose the memory.
Photography “outsources” memories. It works in two ways: We either shake off the responsibility of remembering moments when taking pictures, or we’re so distracted by the process that we miss the moment altogether.
The first explanation is the loss of memory. People know that their camera is recording that moment, so they don’t try to remember. The other is distraction. We’re distracted by the process of taking a photo-how we hold our phone, composing the photo, such as smiling faces, the background to our liking and clear image, all of which uses up our attention that could otherwise help us memorize.
However, taking photos can help memory when done mindfully. While taking a photo may be distracting, the act of preparation by focusing on visual details around has the opposite. When people take the time to take clear pictures, memories become strengthened.
Another advantage is that we recall moments more exactly with the photos. Memory has been reshaped with the help of new information and new experiences. Thus, photos or videos help us recall moments as if they really happened.
Memories die away without a visual record backing them up. Therefore, a photo is an excellent tool to help remember when done purposefully, which is worth exploring further.
32. What is the purpose of the first paragraph
A. To ask readers not to take photos. B. To let us think of similar experience.
C. To arouse the interest in taking photos. D. To introduce the topic.
33. Why does photography “outsource” memories
A. People are more dependant on photos to remember than on their brains.
B. Taking photos is helpful for us to memorize.
C. Photos are more detailed than memories.
D. Many sources influence people’s memories during photo-taking
34. What should be talked about next
A. When taking photos is better. B. How to use photo-taking to memorize better.
C. When distraction is likely to happen. D. How to stay focused while taking photos.
35. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. Photography Does Help to Memories
B. Too Many Photos Taken Result in Poor Memories
C. Remember the Moment and Take Photos Properly
D. The Fewer Photos We Take, the Better We Will Remember
【答案】32. D 33. A 34. B 35. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章讲述了拍照可能会损害大脑的记忆能力，但如果有目的地拍照，会有助于记忆。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句“But before you do, here’s a bit of surprising science: Taking photos is not the perfect way to keep memory as you think.（但在你这样做之前，这里有一些令人惊讶的科学知识：拍照并不是你想象中保存记忆的完美方式。）”可知，作者在第一段中提到人们在海滩上给孩子拍照的情景是为了引出本文的话题：拍照可能不会像人们认为的那样完美地保存记忆，故选D。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段第一句“The first explanation is the loss of memory. People know that their camera is recording that moment, so they don’t try to remember.（第一个解释是记忆的丧失。人们知道他们的相机正在记录那一刻，所以他们不会试图去记住。）”可知，摄影会“外包”记忆是因为人们更依赖照片而不是大脑来记忆，故选A。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句“Therefore, a photo is an excellent tool to help remember when done purposefully, which is worth exploring further.（因此，当有目的地拍照时，照片是帮助记忆的绝佳工具，这值得进一步探索。）”可知，接下来可能会讨论如何更好地使用拍照来记忆，故选B。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“The sun is setting, brightening your kids’ faces as they play in the waves. You reach for your phone for this perfect moment. But before you do, here’s a bit of surprising science: Taking photos is not the perfect way to keep memory as you think.(太阳正在落下，照亮了你孩子们在波浪中玩耍的脸庞。你伸手去拿手机，想要捕捉这一完美时刻。但在你这么做之前，这里有一些令人惊讶的科学：拍照并不是你想的那样完美地保留记忆的方式。)”和最后一段最后一句“Therefore, a photo is an excellent tool to help remember when done purposefully, which is worth exploring further.(因此，当有目的地拍照时，照片是一个极好的帮助记忆的工具，这值得进一步探索。)”可知，本文主要介绍了拍照可能会损害大脑的记忆能力，但如果有目的地拍照，会有助于记忆。由此可知，C 选项“记住那一刻，适当地拍照”最适合作为本文的标题，故选C。

Dad and Mom had got to go on a four-day business trip. They taught their elder son Daniel and younger daughter Jane how to feed and look after their dog, Spot, how to take good care of themselves—learning to cook if they could, or ordering pizza—with money left on the table—if they were busy, and told them to keep their rooms clean and tidy. They asked Daniel to be in charge.
On the very morning when the parents left, Mom kissed them and said to Daniel gently, “Young man, do take care of Spot and Jane.” Daniel promised, “I will, Mom.”
Too excited to fall asleep again, Daniel and Jane jumped out of bed, calling out each other to get up. Their pet dog, Spot, heard the similar voice and rushed in, with a ball in its mouth. Jane stuck(伸) her head into Daniel’s room,“Spot got up an hour earlier. Let’s walk it.” Daniel said excitedly, “I’m coming, but, Jane, don’t forget to keep your room clean and tidy.” “I will.”
They ran with the dog in the yard and threw the ball away for Spot to bring it back. They had fun playing with Spot the whole morning. Washing Spot was slow and tiring as it was the first time they had done it. Then Daniel settled down to his homework while Jane did her reading with interest.
The following day, Jane begged her brother to order pizza for lunch. Daniel agreed excitedly, “We haven’t tasted that for long and we behave ourselves, right ”After a while, he added, “We should save money, too.” Within half an hour, they treated themselves to a big pizza. However, in the afternoon, Spot looked sick, lying lazily and unwilling to move. Daniel was concerned about the dog and took it to the pet clinic immediately with Jane as their parents had done.

We thought you would act like an adult, but look at the mess. The money for food has been used up but why does Spot still look hungry What did you do with the money we left ” Jane explained anxiously, “Mummy, Spot is sick, so we spent the rest of the money taking it to the pet clinic.”

Mom regretted acting so angrily and was satisfied that Daniel learnt to be responsible for others. She apologized to Daniel sincerely and hugged him in her arms, saying that “you are really growing up into a young man.”

All young people dream of travelling the world. They are excited and very eager to see new sights. However, they have little idea how they would really do it if given the chances. Because their knowledge of geography is quite limited, they seldom know much about the places they wish to visit or how they would get there.
Already hundreds of thousands of Chinese student tourists are visiting these places — Wuyi, Lhasa, Lijiang, Dali, Vientiane and Phnom Penh. Indeed, these students will soon be the most travelled generation in China’s long history. The World Tourist Organization predicts that a quarter of a century from now the number of Chinese tourists going abroad will be twenty times what it is today. The largest percentage of these tourists will visit Southeast Asia. Not all Chinese who travel abroad will be tourists, however. More and more youths are deciding to volunteer their skills in this region, much like their peers in the Peace Corps and VSO.
Critical thinking skills required include planning for a trip and solving problems after the trip has begun. The focus is on how to read an atlas (地图集) to make travel plans and how to find ways of travelling. An atlas offers a wealth of information about geography and is one way to increase students’ awareness of their global environment. The use of an atlas especially addresses the needs of students with different visual and spatial (空间的) learning styles.
28. The main idea of the first paragraph is __________.
A. all young people wish to travel around the world
B. all young people love travelling, however, their geographical knowledge is limited
C. all young people like to learn the knowledge of geography
D. all young people are aware of the places they are going to
29. What does the World Tourist Organization predict
A. The number of Chinese tourists going abroad will be twenty times what it is today in about ten years.
B. The number of Chinese tourists going abroad will be twenty times what it is today in about twenty five years.
C. Students will soon be the most travelled generation in China’s long history.
D. Chinese people travel abroad to relax themselves.
30. One way to increase students’ awareness of their global environment is for them to __________.
A. watch TV B. listen to radio news
C. plan a trip D. read the maps
31. What can we infer (推断) from the passage
A. Students know nothing about how to plan a trip.
B. Southeast Asia will be the most popular place in the world.
C. Young people will be crazy about Internet travelling.
D. When we are travelling, critical thinking skills are necessary.
D
The sun is setting, brightening your kids’ faces as they play in the waves. You reach for your phone for this perfect moment. But before you do, here’s a bit of surprising science: Taking photos is not the perfect way to keep memory as you think.
Taking too many pictures could actually harm the brain’s ability to keep memories, says Elizabeth Loftus, a psychology professor at the University of California. So we get the photo but kind of lose the memory.
Photography “outsources” memories. It works in two ways: We either shake off the responsibility of remembering moments when taking pictures, or we’re so distracted by the process that we miss the moment altogether.
The first explanation is the loss of memory. People know that their camera is recording that moment, so they don’t try to remember. The other is distraction. We’re distracted by the process of taking a photo-how we hold our phone, composing the photo, such as smiling faces, the background to our liking and clear image, all of which uses up our attention that could otherwise help us memorize.
However, taking photos can help memory when done mindfully. While taking a photo may be distracting, the act of preparation by focusing on visual details around has the opposite. When people take the time to take clear pictures, memories become strengthened.
Another advantage is that we recall moments more exactly with the photos. Memory has been reshaped with the help of new information and new experiences. Thus, photos or videos help us recall moments as if they really happened.
Memories die away without a visual record backing them up. Therefore, a photo is an excellent tool to help remember when done purposefully, which is worth exploring further.
32. What is the purpose of the first paragraph
A. To ask readers not to take photos. B. To let us think of similar experience.
C. To arouse the interest in taking photos. D. To introduce the topic.
33. Why does photography “outsource” memories
A. People are more dependant on photos to remember than on their brains.
B. Taking photos is helpful for us to memorize.
C. Photos are more detailed than memories.
D. Many sources influence people’s memories during photo-taking
34. What should be talked about next
A. When taking photos is better. B. How to use photo-taking to memorize better.
C. When distraction is likely to happen. D. How to stay focused while taking photos.
35 Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. Photography Does Help to Memories
B. Too Many Photos Taken Result in Poor Memories
C. Remember the Moment and Take Photos Properly
D. The Fewer Photos We Take, the Better We Will Remember
