Unit 4 Section B Reading Plus语言点精讲精练
I．语言点精讲
1. Just as there are sports competitions using our bodies, there are also sports competitions using our minds...
正如存在锻炼体魄的体育赛事一样，同样也有锻炼脑力的赛事...
Just as 引导方式状语从句
含义：正如……；就像……，用于前后两件事物类比对照
结构：Just as + 分句 A, there are also + 分句 B
翻译：正如 A 情况存在，B 情况也同样存在
eg: Just as we need to exercise our bodies every day, there are also ways to train our brain daily.
译文：正如我们每天需要锻炼身体，我们也有办法每日锻炼大脑。
using our bodies /using our minds
两处都是现在分词短语作后置定语，分别修饰前面的sports competitions：.
正如有提升口语的课堂任务，也有拓展阅读能力的练习。
Just as there are class tasks improving our spoken English, there are also exercises developing our reading ability.
2.The “brain athletes” had to remember as many names and faces as they could or as many words as possible in 15 minutes.
这些 “脑力选手” 必须在 15 分钟内，尽可能多地记住人名、面孔或者单词。
固定短语：
as many + 可数名词复数 + as possible
释义：尽可能多的……，是更简洁的通用版本。…
as many words as possible 尽可能多的单词
eg:You need to practise memory skills as often as possible.
= You need to practise memory skills as often as you can.
翻译：你要尽可能频繁地练习记忆技巧。
比如，参赛选手不得不十分钟之内写下尽可能多的英语单词或者尽可能多的日常句式。
For instance, competitors had to write down as many English words as they could or note down as many daily sentences as possible in ten minutes.
3..While you might think that these competitors were all born with a strong memory, this is often not true.
你或许会认为这些参赛者天生就拥有超强记忆力，但事实往往并非如此。
While 此处引导让步状语从句
含义：此处 while = although / though，译为 “虽然，尽管”，表让步，不能用 but 同时出现在主句。
eg: While you think memorizing words is hard, this is often not true with good skills.
译文：你或许觉得背单词很难，但掌握技巧后往往并非如此。
be born with 天生具有……；与生俱来
搭配：be born with good eyesight /talent/memory
虽然你可能认为优秀的学习者天生就有好记性，但事实往往并非如此。
While you might think that good learners are all born with a good memory, this is often not true.
4.Later, if you want to remember the words, all you need to do is remember the picture.
之后如果你想要回忆起这些单词，你只需要回想这幅画面就可以了。
核心结构：All you need to do is (to) do sth.
含义：你需要做的一切就是……；你只需做…… 即可
不定式 to 可省略
eg: All you need to do is practise memory skills every day.
译文：你只需要每天坚持练习记忆技巧就够了。
5.While most people are terrible at remembering lists, they are quite good at remembering where things are.尽管大多数人不擅长记忆清单，他们却十分擅长记住物品摆放的位置。
1)固定搭配：be terrible at (doing) sth.不擅长……；在…… 方面很差，后接名词或动名词。反义词组：be good at (doing) sth. 擅长…… 程度副词替换：quite good at 十分擅长
2)宾语从句：remembering where things are
where things are 是由 where 引导的宾语从句，放在动词 remember 后，从句必须使用陈述语序（主语在前，谓语在后，不用倒装）。
尽管她不擅长记数字，她却很擅长记住东西放在哪里。
While she is terrible at memorizing numbers, she is quite good at remembering where things are placed.
You can probably picture in your mind where everything in your bedroom is.你大概能在脑海里想象出卧室里每一样东西摆放的位置。
1)谓语动词 picture 此处为动词，不是名词 “图片”，含义：想象；勾勒画面
搭配：picture sth. in your mind 在脑海中想象某物
状语 in your mind 在脑海中，修饰动词 picture，说明想象发生的空间。
2)宾语从句 where everything in your bedroom is
where 引导宾语从句，作 picture 的宾语，从句严格使用陈述语序（主语 everything 在前，谓语 is 在后，不能写成 where is everything）。
我们能在脑海中想象出公园里每棵大树生长的地方。
We can picture in our minds where every big tree in the park grows.
7.Later, if you want to remember the words, all you need to do is to remember the picture.之后，如果你想要记住这些单词，你只需要记住脑海里的画面就可以了。
1)if 引导条件状语从句 if you want to remember the words
if 表示 “如果”，引导真实条件句，遵循主将从现规则：从句用一般现在时，主句可用一般现在时 / 将来时。
2)核心句型：All you need to do is (to) do sth. 你需要做的一切就是……
All you need to do 是主语从句，all 为先行词，省略关系代词 that；
主句谓语动词是 be 动词时，后面的不定式符号 to 可以省略，即 All you need to do is remember the picture；
之后，如果你想学好记忆技巧，你只需要每天坚持练习。
Later, if you want to learn memory techniques well, all you need to do is to keep practicing every day.

The Secret of a Good Memory
Have you ever wondered why some people seem to remember everything while others often forget things The answer lies not in their brain size but in their daily habits. People with good memories usually 1 their brains regularly, just like they exercise their bodies. They understand that memory is a 2 that can be improved with practice.
One important habit is getting enough sleep. During sleep, your brain 3 the information you learned during the day. Without enough rest, new information may not 4 your long-term memory. Another useful method is to 5 new information with something you already know. For example, if you learn a new word, try to 6 it with a picture or a story.
Stress is another factor that 7 memory. When you are stressed, your brain cannot work at its best. That’s why you might 8 a person’s name during an important conversation. To reduce stress, you can try deep breathing or taking short breaks.
Finally, a healthy diet 9 a role in keeping a good memory. Foods like fish, nuts, and vegetables provide nutrients that help your brain function well. As the saying goes, “You are what you eat.” So, if you want to have a better memory, start by 10 small changes to your daily routine.

六、六选五。
Have you ever studied for hours, only to forget everything after the exam This is a common problem for many students. It often happens when we only learn without truly understanding it. 　　　　1　　　　 It’s called the Feynman Learning Technique (方法), created by a famous scientist, Richard Feynman. People called him the “Great Explainer” because he had an amazing ability to explain difficult topics, like quantum physics (量子物理), in a simple way.
　　　　2　　　　 The main idea is simple. First, choose any topic you want to learn and write down everything you know about it on a piece of paper. Next, pretend you are teaching it to a classmate who doesn’t know it. 　　　　3　　　　 While explaining, you might find yourself getting stuck. This is a good sign! It shows you exactly which parts you don’t understand well enough. When that happens, you should go back to your books to review and learn more.
Another powerful part of this technique is to use comparison. For example, to explain how our brain stores memories, you might compare it to a library that organizes books. 　　　　4　　　　
　　　　5　　　　 It is a powerful tool that helps you test your own understanding and find the gaps in your knowledge. By trying to teach others, you teach yourself best. This technique helps make knowledge truly yours, and it will stay with you long after the exam is over.
A. So, how does it work
B. It asks learners to study harder.
C. Luckily, there is a better way.
D. This makes difficult ideas much easier to connect with and remember.
E. In short, the Feynman Learning Technique is more than just a study trick.
F. This simple act forces you to use easy language and clear examples.

Grandmother’s Lost Memories
Rick’s grandma is over seventy years old. These days, her memory becomes much worse. Last weekend, Rick visited her home and found some strange changes. She kept calling Rick Johnny, which is Rick’s father’s name. When Rick wanted to eat cookies, she told him those snacks were saved for her grandson, not realizing Rick was exactly that grandson.
Rick felt really sad and worried about her condition. He talked with his classmate Chen Jie, whose grandpa also has memory problems. Chen told Rick that old people’s memory usually falls little by little as they grow older. His grandpa once forgot the way to their park, so Chen takes him there every weekend.
Chen shared a useful idea with Rick: do not only focus on the things the old lady forgets. We should keep in mind all the warm happy memories she still holds. Rick’s grandma still remembers he loves cookies deeply, and this warm memory is very valuable.
The two boys discussed what they could do for the elderly with poor memory. They decided to look back on happy family moments together, such as picnics and old opera shows. They planned to take many new photos and make a family photo album for Rick’s grandma. Looking at pictures can help her recall more warm stories from the past.
Rick finally understood sadness cannot solve the problem. Instead of feeling upset, he should stay with his grandma and create more new sweet memories with her.

A．Buy lots of cookies for her every week.
B．Make a family photo album with new photos.
C．Take her to watch operas alone every day.
D．Move the grandma to live with Rick’s family.
5．What can we learn from Rick’s story

My Ways to Learn Better
Hello everyone, I’m Li Hua. Today I want to share three study methods that have really helped me.
First, I make a weekly study plan. Every Sunday evening, I write down what subjects to study each day. I put the hardest subject, like maths or physics, in the morning because I am more focused then. I also plan short breaks — 10 minutes after 40 minutes of study.
Second, I use active recall. After reading a page of a textbook, I close the book and try to say the main ideas aloud. This helps me find out what I really remember and what I need to review again. It works much better than just re-reading.
Third, I teach what I learn to others. Sometimes I explain a history event or a science rule to my little brother or a classmate. When I teach, I find out if I truly understand it. If I get stuck, I go back to the book.
These methods take time, but they make learning more effective. You don’t need to be a genius to get good grades — just good habits. Try one of them this week and see the difference!

【答案】1-5CBABA
二、用括号内所给词的适当形式填空。
【答案】1. memorizing 2. Championships 3. athletes 4. powerful
5. techniques 6. stands
答案 + 解析
1. memorizing
固定搭配：be good at doing sth. 擅长做某事，at 是介词，后面接动名词。memory（名词，记忆）→ memorize（动词，记住）→ memorizing。
句意：他擅长记忆长长的单词列表。
2. Championships
World Memory Championships 世界记忆力锦标赛（专有名词，课文原词，常用复数）。champion（冠军）→ championship（锦标赛）。
句意：2019 年世界记忆力锦标赛在武汉举办。
3. athletes
主语 Those（那些人）是复数，athlete 要用复数形式 athletes。
句意：参加脑力竞赛的人是脑力选手。
4. powerful
修饰名词 memory 要用形容词。power（名词，力量）→ powerful（形容词，强大的）。
句意：这位冠军并没有天生超强的记忆力。
5. techniques
different（不同的）后面接可数名词复数。technique → techniques。
句意：他充分利用各种不同的记忆技巧。
6. stands
主语 Each letter（每一个字母）是单数，一般现在时，谓语动词用第三人称单数 stands。
句意：每个字母代表五大湖中的一个湖。
三、根据汉语意思完成句子
【答案】1.memorized the order of 2. Championships；competitions 3. is often not
4. an average；makes full use of 5. stands for
四、语法填空
【答案】
1．and 2．eggs 3．learned/learnt 4．tasted 5．where 6．friends 7．at 8．connected 9．forever 10．to
【导语】本文回忆作者八岁时在祖父母农场度过的夏天，记述农场日常点滴，表达对简单美好往事的珍视。
1．句意：我那时八岁，而且我依然记得每一处细节。前后两个分句是顺承并列关系，用并列连词and连接。
2．句意：他会让我收集鸡蛋，把它们放进篮子里。egg是可数名词，此处用复数形式。
3．句意：我记住了所有植物的名字。整篇文章讲述过去农场的经历，时态为一般过去时，learn使用过去式。
4．句意：它们尝起来比我吃过的任何东西都美味。故事发生在过去，使用一般过去时，taste变为过去式。
5．句意：我发现一条小溪，我会坐在那里看鱼儿。先行词a small stream表地点，定语从句中缺少地点状语，用关系副词where。
6．句意：我还和邻居家的小狗交上了朋友。固定短语make friends with sb，表示“和某人交朋友”，friend必须用复数。
7．句意：祖父会指着星座，给我讲述和它们相关的故事。固定搭配point at，意思是“指着”。
8．句意：我内心十分平静，感觉与大自然紧密相连。固定搭配be connected to，表示“与……相联系”，此处用形容词化的过去分词。
9．句意：这是一段我会永远珍藏的回忆。forever作副词，修饰动词treasure，可直接使用。
10．句意：每当我感到焦虑，我就闭上眼睛，回到那座农场。固定短语go back to +地点，表示“回到某地”。
五、完形填空
【答案】
1．A 2．B 3．B 4．A 5．C 6．B 7．C 8．B 9．A 10．C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了好记忆力的秘密，包括锻炼大脑、充足睡眠、联想记忆、减轻压力和健康饮食等习惯。
【详解】1．句意：记忆力好的人通常会经常锻炼大脑，就如同锻炼身体一样。
根据后文“just like they exercise their bodies”类比锻炼身体，此处应为锻炼大脑，exercise“锻炼”符合。ignore“忽视”，forget“忘记”，waste“浪费”，均不符合语境。
2．句意：他们明白记忆力是一项可以通过练习提升的技能。
根据定语“that can be improved with practice”可知，能通过练习提高的是技能，skill“技能”匹配。gift“天赋”，secret“秘密”，problem“难题”，不符合文意。
3．句意：在睡眠期间，大脑整理你白天学到的信息。
“your brain...the information”表明，是整理信息。organizes“整理、梳理”，符合睡眠时大脑加工信息的常识。creates“创造”，deletes“删除”，hides“隐藏”，逻辑不通。
4．句意：如果休息不足，新信息可能无法进入长期记忆。
“new information may not...your long-term memory”表明，是新信息可能无法进入长期记忆，enter“进入”，符合记忆形成原理。escape“逃离”，leave“离开”，avoid“避免”，与句意相反。
5．句意：另一个有效的方法是把新信息和已知事物建立联系。
固定搭配connect…with…，意为“把……和……联系起来”。compare“对比”，confuse“使困惑”，compete“竞争”，搭配与含义不符。
6．句意：例如，当你学习新单词，尝试把它和一幅图画或者一个故事关联起来。
根据记忆技巧常识，associate…with是固定搭配，意为“把……和……联系起来”。replace“替换”，cover“覆盖”，mix“混合”，不符合记忆方法的语境。
7．句意：压力是另一个会影响记忆力的因素。
根据下文“brain cannot work at its best”可知，压力有负面影响，affects“影响”，符合语境。improves“提升”，helps“帮助”过于片面；creates“创造”，语义不通。
8．句意：这就是为什么你在重要交谈中可能会忘记别人的名字。
前文说明压力让大脑无法最佳运转，因此会forget“忘记”。remember“记住”，recall“回忆”，recognize“认出”，和语境矛盾。
9．句意：最后，健康饮食对保持良好记忆力起到作用。
固定短语play a role in…，意为“在……方面起作用”。makes、does、has无法构成该短语。
10．句意：所以如果你想要拥有更好的记忆力，可以从对你的日常习惯做出微小改变开始。
“start by...small changes”表明，此处指做出微小改变，固定搭配make changes，意为“做出改变”。resisting“抵抗”，rejecting“拒绝”，avoiding“避免”，语义不匹配。
六、六选五
【答案】1. C 2. A 3. F 4. D 5. E
【解析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了费曼学习法的背景、具体操作、核心技巧及重要意义，旨在解决学生“学完就忘”的学习问题。

(3)题： 根据“Next, pretend you are teaching it to a classmate who doesn’t know it.”可知，F选项“这个简单的行为迫使你使用简单的语言和清晰的例子”承接前文“假装教学”的行为，符合语境，故选F。
(4)题： 根据“For example, to explain how our brain stores memories, you might compare it to a library that organizes books.”可知，D选项“这让难懂的概念更容易联系和记忆”说明类比方法的作用，与前文内容相关联，故选D。
(5)题： 根据“It is a powerful tool that helps you test your own understanding and find the gaps in your knowledge.”可知，后文在总结费曼学习法的价值，E选项“简而言之，费曼学习法不仅仅是一个学习技巧”起到总结升华的作用，故选E。
七、阅读理解
【答案】1．B 2．A 3．B 4．B 5．B
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述里克的奶奶记忆力衰退，里克为此十分忧心，在同学陈杰的开导下，里克明白不必纠结老人遗忘的事情，应当珍惜老人尚存的温暖记忆，并陪伴奶奶创造更多美好回忆。
1．第一段原句：“She kept calling Rick Johnny, which is Rick’s father’s name.”，直接说明Johnny是里克的爸爸。
2．第二段原句：“His grandpa once forgot the way to their park”，表明陈杰的爷爷会忘记去公园的路。
3．第三段原句：“do not only focus on the things the old lady forgets. We should keep in mind all the warm happy memories she still holds.”，对应建议是多关注她仍然拥有的美好回忆。
4．第四段原句：“They planned to take many new photos and make a family photo album for Rick’s grandma.”，说明两个男孩打算拍摄新照片，制作家庭相册。
5．通读全文，陈杰建议里克珍惜奶奶留存的温暖记忆，里克也领悟到要陪伴老人创造新回忆，由此可知我们应当珍惜老年人还保有的温暖记忆。
