答案:
本文介绍了学习障碍儿童(如数学障碍儿童)大脑的“工作记忆”容量方面的研究情况。大脑的“工作记忆”不好,会使孩子不能专心读书,百分之十的孩子有这方面的问题。很多心理学家认为应该把大脑的“工作记忆”可以看作是一种新智商,因为它可以反映人的学习能力。Alloway把大脑的“工作记忆”比作一个盒子,并认为它的容量是有限的。文章还告诉我们记忆训练可以帮助改善“工作记忆”。
41.A。事实细节题。根据第三段中的“Allowaycomparesworkingmemorytoabox.Foradults,thebasicboxsizeisthoughttobethreetofiveitems.”可知人的“工作记忆”就像一个盒子,它的容量是有限的。
42.B。推理判断题。根据第二段的“ManypsychologistsconsiderworkingmemorytobethenewIQ,becausewefindthatworkingmemoryisoneofthemostimportantpredictorsoflearningability”可知,很多心理学家认为workingmemory是一种新的智商,因为研究者发现workingmemory是衡量一个人学习能力的最重要的指标之一,因此可以把它看作是预测孩子智力的一个重要因素。
43.D。猜测词义题。根据第三段可知人的workingmemory是有限的,因此要去记那些重要的信息,不相关的信息只会使记忆更加混乱,所以选D。
44.B。事实细节题。根据倒数第二段第一句“Memorytrainingmayhelpimproveworkingmemory.”可知进行记忆训练会有助于改善“工作记忆”,因此B正确。
45.B。事实细节题。根据最后一段第一句“Levine’sorganizationtrainsteachersthroughaprogramcalledSchoolsAttuned”可知,Levine成立一个组织,这个组织培训老师,然后让老师们帮助学生改善“工作记忆”。

答案:
本文介绍了学习障碍儿童(如数学障碍儿童)大脑的“工作记忆”容量方面的研究情况。大脑的“工作记忆”不好,会使孩子不能专心读书,百分之十的孩子有这方面的问题。很多心理学家认为应该把大脑的“工作记忆”可以看作是一种新智商,因为它可以反映人的学习能力。Alloway把大脑的“工作记忆”比作一个盒子,并认为它的容量是有限的。文章还告诉我们记忆训练可以帮助改善“工作记忆”。
41.A。事实细节题。根据第三段中的“Allowaycomparesworkingmemorytoabox.Foradults,thebasicboxsizeisthoughttobethreetofiveitems.”可知人的“工作记忆”就像一个盒子,它的容量是有限的。
42.B。推理判断题。根据第二段的“ManypsychologistsconsiderworkingmemorytobethenewIQ,becausewefindthatworkingmemoryisoneofthemostimportantpredictorsoflearningability”可知,很多心理学家认为workingmemory是一种新的智商,因为研究者发现workingmemory是衡量一个人学习能力的最重要的指标之一,因此可以把它看作是预测孩子智力的一个重要因素。
43.D。猜测词义题。根据第三段可知人的workingmemory是有限的,因此要去记那些重要的信息,不相关的信息只会使记忆更加混乱,所以选D。
44.B。事实细节题。根据倒数第二段第一句“Memorytrainingmayhelpimproveworkingmemory.”可知进行记忆训练会有助于改善“工作记忆”,因此B正确。
45.B。事实细节题。根据最后一段第一句“Levine’sorganizationtrainsteachersthroughaprogramcalledSchoolsAttuned”可知,Levine成立一个组织,这个组织培训老师,然后让老师们帮助学生改善“工作记忆”。找教案http://

答案:
过去猫和狗不被当成宠物看待,主人经常把它们养在后园中,给它们吃剩下来的饭菜。而近十年来,人们对待它们的态度变了,它们不仅得到了主人的细心照料,并且已经成了一个新的经济焦点,众多的商家都使尽浑身解数来满足宠物和他们的主人的要求。这一现象其实是有一定的社会原因的,一方面,9.11后,很多人认为这个世界令人恐惧,而他们能够从宠物身上得到安慰,而另一方面,当年婴儿潮时期出生的孩子现在已经成了白发苍苍的老人,他们的孩子远离家里,所以在一定程度上,这些老人饲养宠物可以减轻儿女不在身旁的孤独感。
21.B。结合选项以及所搭配的名词和文章的内容可推出:过去猫和狗不被当成宠物看待,主人经常把它们养在后园中,给它们吃剩下来的饭菜。而近十年来,人们对待它们的态度变了,相当一部分主人和这些宠物睡在一起。
22.D。根据此句后面的triesto23notonlythebasicneedsofanimalsbutalsotheneedsofpetowners可知,由于宠物的地位提高了,所以相应地产生了许多为宠物服务的工厂。对这些商业企业来说宠物就是他们经营的焦点,要想方设法满足宠物的基本需要和宠物主人的需要。
23.A。既然产生了一个庞大的商业,那么这些工厂肯定要为满足宠物的基本需要和宠物主人的需要而服务。meetone’sneed满足某人的需要(求)。
24.C。现在百分之六十三的美国家庭有宠物。一点也不稀奇的是,猫和狗是人们最喜爱的宠物。找教案http://
25.A。文章第一段提到的数据:Today,63percentofcatownersand42percentofdogowners…可知,在各种宠物中,猫和狗最受人们喜爱,人们饲养得也最多。
26.B。从前面可知,在过去的十年中,宠物的地位比以往高了,那么,在它们身上的开销也大了。从后面的关键词startedinthemid-’90s可知道,在90年代中期用在宠物身上的开销开始增长。
27.D。根据常识判断,美国9.11之后,有些人认为世界是不安全的。scarier意为“更易受惊的”。
28.C。结合选项以及前文可知,人们缺乏安全感(但是又无法逃离这个世界),所以他们试图寻找安慰,而宠物正好能够满足一些人的精神需要。宠物能够给人带来安慰,不能带来转折(turning),也不能带来逃避(escape)和希望(hope)。
29.C。上面谈到的是宠物受欢迎的一种原因,下面要谈的是另一个原因,所以C项正确。
30.D。由于子女都去上大学了,家中的父母感到孤独。过去我们是溺爱子女的家长,现在我们成了溺爱宠物的主人。
