As language learners, it's important to use dictionaries. Paper dictionaries are often great choices for us. They lead us to think in a more exact way. However, with the rapid development of the Internet, many websites and apps offer us information about the language we are learning, so some language learners like online dictionaries better. Here is what some students think of the two kinds of dictionaries.
Lin Tao,14 I like to look up something in a paper dictionary better. Its explanations(解释)are clear so that I can understand them better. I don't think some online dictionaries are believable. There are many incorrect usages which can make us confused(困惑的).
Wang Lan15 If we are not good at remembering English words, we can look up their meanings online very soon. It helps us finish reading the English articles more smoothly(流畅地). If we are good language learners, we can always learn more in a shorter time with an online dictionary. It saves much time.
Please email us at 189@youthdaily. if you want to share your opinions, and your opinions will be carried in tomorrow's newspaper.

①People always say the music from their younger years is the best, compared with the music from any other time in their lives. This may be because of something that can be called the“memory bump(隆起)”.
②According to the BBC, the memory bump means that our memories from ages 10 to 30 are very strong. This period heavily shapes our interests, such as our favourite books, films,sports stars, and especially music. The reason is that there is a "safe" place in our brain to store the musical memories. The place is well protected from aging problems. As a result, the music we listen to during these years usually has a long-lasting influence. We usually remember the music in our early years more deeply than music from other times in our lives.
③" Music is episodic(片段式的)," Professor Robert Cutietta at US told CN. " If you look at an artwork or something else, you can look at it and then walk away. Music is over time."
④Music is mixed. It can mix happy and sad feelings when we listen to it. When the songs are about your past experiences, memories of those moments will flood back as you listen to the songs again.
⑤Music is magic. Sometimes, with a change in your experience, the sadness you felt before when listening to a song can later turn into joy. This can explain why listening to music from a difficult time in your younger life can bring a sense of comfort and relief (宽慰) now.
( )6. What is the "memory bump"
A. An interest in books and films.
B. A type of music from the 1910s.
C. The happiest memories in the brain.
D. The strong memories from our early years.
( )7. Why do we remember the music from our younger years better
A. We listen to the music more often.
B. Young people have better memories.
C. A well protected area in the brain stores it.
D. The music is easier to understand and remember.
( )8. What is the possible meaning of the underlined word "flood"
A. Rush. B. Save. C. Cost. D.Talk.
( )9. What is the structure of the text
( )10. What is the main idea of the text
A. Getting older changes how we remember music.
B. Our music memories have a lasting influence.
C. Most people always have dear musical memories.
D. We can remember music better than other things.
五、短文填空。（10分）

year, information, think ,different, they,never why, store, play, easy
It's said that using certain skills is"just like riding a bike". In other words, once they've been learned, you never forget 1. .And it's true that while we often forget facts, we can usually jump on a bike and ride away without 2. about it.
But why are you generally still able to ride a bike even after having not ridden one for 3. .The answer is that certain skills,such as how to drive or 4. an instrument, are part of our procedural memory.It is a kind of long-term memory that performs 5. procedures. And while these procedures may be difficult to learn, once learned completely, they're 6. forgotten.
This happens because procedural memory and declarative(陈述性的) memory are 7.
in different parts of the brain. To tell the difference, declarative memory is responsible for remembering 8. like names, dates, and events from your life.

六、任务型阅读：阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答问题。（10分）
Many students often think they have memory problems. They worry because they can't remember words. In fact, the problem usually isn't with their memory. The problem is with how they study.
To remember words better, you need to understand how memory works. There are two kinds of memory: short-term memory and long.term memory. When you see, hear or read something, it goes first into short-term memory.But short-term memory lasts for only a few seconds. You'll only remember something longer if it goes into long-term memory. Your long-term memory is like a big library with many books.And like a library, it's organized. When you put away a book or memory, you can't just leave it anywhere.You have to choose a place where you can find it again.
How can you do this with vocabulary The answer is to work with the word and think about the word in new ways. You can do this by writing new sentences that include it. Even better, you can create a little story about it, with people or places that you know. Another way is to picture an image in your mind with it. All of these activities are good ways to think about words. They make the meanings of words stronger in your long-term memory. And they give a way to find a word when you need it.

How to Improve Our Memory
A good memory helps us learn better. Here is some advice on how to improve our memory.
First, we need enough sleep and do some exercise regularly. They keep our brain active. Second, we should focus on what we learn and repeat important information many times. Besides, it’s useful to connect things with pictures. Our brains remember pictures more easily.
What’s more, staying relaxed is important. If we feel too nervous, it will be hard for us to remember things.
Memory can be trained. Keep trying, and we will make great progress.
