than those who use laptops(笔记本电脑)Students are increasingly using laptops for notetaking because of speed and legibility(清楚度)But the research has found laptop users are less able to remember and apply the concepts they have been taught.Researchers performed experiments that aimed to find out whether using a laptop increased the tendency to make notes“mindlessly”by taking down word for word what the professors said.In the first experiment，students were given either a laptop or pen and paper.They listened to the same lectures and were told to use their usual notetaking skills.Thirty minutes after the talk，they were examined on their ability to remember facts and on how well they understood concepts.The researchers found that laptop users took twice as many notes as those who wrote by hand.However，the typists performed worse at remembering and applying the concepts.Both groups scored similarly when it came to memorizing facts.The researchers report said，“While more notes are beneficial，if the notes are taken mindlessly，as is more likely the case on a laptop，the benefit disappears.”In another experiment aimed at testing longterm memory，students took notes as before but were tested a week after the lecture.This time，the students who wrote notes by hand performed significantly better on the exam.These two experiments suggest that handwritten notes are not only better for immediate learning and understanding，but that they also lead to superior revision in the future.5More and more students favor laptops for notetaking because they can_.Awrite more notesBdigest concepts betterCget higher scoresDunderstand lectures better6While taking notes，laptop users tend to be_.Askillful BmindlessCthoughtful Dtireless7The author of the passage aims to_.Aexamine the importance of longterm memoryBstress the benefit of taking notes by handCexplain the process of taking notesDpromote the use of laptops8The passage is likely to appear in_.Aa newspaper advertisementBa computer textbookCa science magazineDa finance report答案：【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。本文揭示试验争辩的结果，用笔记本电脑记笔记的人记忆和应用概念的力量较差，而用手记笔记的人在考试中的表现更好。5A解析：细节理解题。依据其次段第一句“Students are increasingly using laptops for notetaking because of speed and legibility(清楚度)”可知，同学越来越多地使用笔记本电脑记笔记是由于它的速度和清楚度，这说明用笔记本电脑记笔记速度快、记得多。故选A。6B解析：推理推断题。依据其次段其次句“But the research has found laptop users are less able to remember and apply the concepts they have been taught”可知，争辩已经发觉笔记本电脑的使用者没能记住和应用教给他们的概念。由此可推知，笔记本电脑的使用者在记笔记时是不动脑子的。故选B。7B解析：推理推断题。本文通过试验发觉了用笔记本电脑记笔记的不良效果和用手记笔记的优势，两者相比突出了用手记笔记的好处。故选B。8C解析：推理推断题。依据文章内容可知，本文揭示试验争辩的结果，用笔记本电脑记笔记的人记忆和应用概念的力量较差，而用手记笔记的人在考试中的表现更好。由此可推知，本文应当消灭在科学杂志里。故选C。CWorking with a group of baboons (狒狒) in the Namibian desert，Dr.Alecia Carter of the Department of Zoology，Cambridge University set baboons learning tasks involving a novel food and a familiar food，hidden in a box.Some baboons were given the chance to watch another baboon who already knew how to solve the task，while others had to learn for themselves.To work out how brave or anxious the baboons were，Dr.Carter presented them either with a novel food or a threat in the form of a model of a poisonous snake.She found that personality had a major impact on learning.The braver baboons learnt，but the shy ones did not learn the task although they watched the baboon perform the task of finding the novel food just as long as the brave ones did.In effect，despite being made aware of what to do，they were still too shy to do what the experienced baboon did.The same held true for anxious baboons compared with calm ones.The anxious individuals learnt the task by observing others while those who were relaxed did not，even though they spent more time watching.This mismatch between collecting social information and using it shows that personality plays a key role in social learning in animals，something that has previously been ignored in studies on how animals learn to do things.The findings are significant because they suggest that animals may perform poorly in cognitive (认知的) tasks not because they arent clever enough to solve them，but because they are too shy or nervous to use the social information.The findings may impact how we understand the formation of culture in societies through social learning.If some individuals are unable to get information from others because they dont associate with the knowledgeable individuals，or they are too shy to use the information once they have it，information may not travel between all group members，preventing the formation of a culture based on social learning.9What is the first paragraph mainly about?AThe design of Dr.Carters research.BThe results of Dr.Carters research.CThe purpose of Dr.Carters research.DThe significance of Dr.Carters research.10According to the research，which baboons are more likely to complete a new learning task?AThose that have more experience.BThose that can avoid potential risks.CThose that like to work independently.DThose that feel anxious about learning.11Which best illustrates the “mismatch” mentioned in Paragraph 4?ASome baboons are intelligent but slow in learning.BSome baboons are shy but active in social activities.CSome baboons observe others but dont follow them.DSome baboons perform new tasks but dont concentrate.12Dr.Carters findings indicate that our culture might be formed through _.Astoring informationBlearning from each otherCunderstanding different peopleDtravelling between social groups答案：【语篇解读】本文是一篇科普说明文。剑桥高校的一些争辩人员通过对狒狒的争辩发觉，影响狒狒学习成效的因素不是它们的智力，而是其性格以及对学习的渴望程度。这一争辩结果也适用于人类社会：假如我们不擅长与他人沟通或太可怕而不能利用所得到的信息，那么会阻碍以社会学习为基础的文化的形成。9A解析：推理推断题。第一段描述了争辩人员如何开展这一争辩的具体细节：把新颖的食物和生疏的食物藏在一个盒子里，有些狒狒有机会观看另外一只狒狒是如何完成任务的，而另外一些狒狒则不得不自学完成任务，因此选A项“卡特博士争辩的设计”，而非争辩的“结果”“目的”或“重要性”。10D解析：细节理解题。由文章其次段中The braver baboons learnt，but the shy ones did not learn.及第三段中The anxious individuals learnt.while those who were relaxed did not.这些对试验的描述可知D项“那些渴望学习的狒狒”符合题意。11C解析：推理推断题。该词所在上文，即其次、三段提到在观看了别的狒狒之后，英勇的、渴望学习的狒狒学到本事，而大方的狒狒学了却不像别的狒狒那样去做；再依据between collecting social information and using it可知与“收集”和“使用”对应的是“观看别人但不跟着做”，即C项。12B解析：细节理解题。最终一段首句The findings may impact how we understand the formation of culture in societies through social learning.意为“争辩结果可能会影响我们如何理解社会文化的形成，该文化的形成是通过社会学习获得的”。换言之，作者认为我们的文化是通过social learning而形成的，与B项“相互学习”相呼应，而非“储存信息”“理解不同的人”或“在社会群体间传播”。DClose your eyes for a minute and imagine what life would be like if

completely changed the appearance of London.However，not everyone thinks that it is a change for the better.The Shard was designed by the famous Italian architect Renzo Piano.When he began designing the Shard for London，Piano wanted a very tall building that looked like a spire(尖顶)He wanted the glass surfaces to reflect the sky and the city.The sides of the building arent regular.So the building has an unusual shape.It looks like a very thin，sharp piece of broken glass.And that is how the building got the name：the Shard.Piano says that the spire shape of the Shard is part of a great London tradition.The shape reminds him of the spires of the churches of London or the tall masts(桅杆) of the ships that were once on the river Thames.The Shard has 87 floors.At the top，there is an observatory.At the moment the building is empty，but eventually there will be a fivestar hotel.There will also be top quality restaurants，apartments and offices.Before building work began，a lot of people didnt want the Shard though the plans were approved.Now they are still unhappy about the Shard.Some critics say that such a tall skyscraper might be good in a city like New York，but not in London.They say that the best thing about the Shard is its spire shape.But that is the only thing.There is no decoration，only flat surfaces.The Egyptians did that 4,500 years ago.They also think the Shard is too big for London.It destroys the beauty of the city.Other critics dont like what the Shard seems to represent.They say that the Shard shows how London is becoming more unequal.Only very rich people can afford to buy the expensive private apartments and stay in the hotel.But the people who live near the Shard are among the poorest in London.So the Shard seems a symbol of the division in society between the very rich and the poor.The Shard now dominates the London skyline.It is not certain，however，that ordinary London citizens will ever accept it as a valuable addition to the city.18Londons newest skyscraper is called the Shard because of _.Aits cost Bits sizeCits shape Dits height19When he designed the Shard，Piano wanted it to _.Achange Londons skylineBinherit Londons traditionCimitate the Egyptian styleDattract potential visitors20The critics who refer to social division think the Shard _.Ais only preferred by the r
