完形填空

  Adults are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practised in the meantime. A man who has not had an opportuni ty to go swimming for years can 1 swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after several decades(十年) and still 2 away. A mother who has not 3 the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” or recite the story of Cinderella or Snow White.

  One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows: 4 we have learned something, additional learning increase the 5 of time we will remember it.

  In childhood, we usually continue to practise such skills as swimming, bicycle riding long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and 6 ourselves of poems such as “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” and childhood tales such as Cinderella or Snow White. We not only learn but 7 .

  The law of overlearning explains why cramming(突擊學(xué)習(xí)) for an examination, 8 it may result in a passing grade, is not a 9 way to learn a school course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning, 10 , is usually a good investment(投資) toward the future.

答案:C;D;A;B;D;A;B;A;C;C
解析:

  1.C  解析:根據(jù)句意“許多年沒有機(jī)會游泳的人仍然能夠像以往一樣游泳”…as well as ever…為選此項提供了依據(jù),另外從下文…and still…也可知曉,故選C。

  2.D  解析:與上文結(jié)合起來構(gòu)成并列例子,前者以游泳為例,后者以騎自行車為例,當(dāng)然得選ride。

  3.A  解析:此題主要從詞組辨析出發(fā)。think about意為“考慮”、“思考”、“回想”、“想起”;care for意為“關(guān)心”;show up意為“揭穿,露出,顯出”;bring up意為“培育、教育、培養(yǎng)”。根據(jù)文義選A。

  4.B  解析:once意為“一旦”表條件意味,此項符合文義。

  5.D  解析:從文義來看,額外的學(xué)習(xí)能使我們學(xué)到的東西記得更牢,能夠增長我們記住某件事的時間長度,故選D項。

  6.A  解析:remind sb. of sth.意為“使某人想起……”或“提醒某人想起……”

  7.B  解析:根據(jù)文義,此句意為“我們不僅要學(xué)習(xí),而且還要進(jìn)行額外學(xué)習(xí)”,故選B項。

  8.A  解析:though表示讓步,“盡管、雖然”。

  9.C  解析:此空應(yīng)與35題聯(lián)系起來,與前句構(gòu)成轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系,“盡管它可以導(dǎo)致通過一定級別的考試,但對于學(xué)習(xí)學(xué)校課程來說并不是一種令人滿意的方法”,故選C。

  10.C  解析:最后一段中最后兩個句子講了超負(fù)荷的這種突擊性學(xué)習(xí)有其弊端,即學(xué)習(xí)可能很快地忘掉所學(xué)的東西,另外少量的突擊性學(xué)習(xí)通常是一種好的投資,優(yōu)劣對比,故選C項,on the other hand有“另外一方面”之意。

  We’ve heard it before-we’ve heard it on the news, from teachers, from parents-children and teenagers today are growing up too fast.There are not too many people that will   1   with that statement.Teenagers are faced with serious problems and decisions at an early   2  .In fact most teenagers’ daily schedules are as   3   as those of an adult’s.

  I have been working since I was thirteen, and always in   4   in which I was working with adults.I have had to learn to think and   5   like an adult to be taken seriously.So, I count myself as one who has grown up too fast.I just graduated from high school, and have recently spent some time reflecting(反思)on the   6   eighteen years-thinking about myself, what I have gained, and what   7   I have yet to achieve.

  How was he   12   to turn and tell his eight kids that he didn’t have enough money to take them to the circus?Seeing what was going on, my dad put his hand in his pocket, pulled out a $20 bill and   13   it on the ground.(We were not wealthy in any sense of the word!)

  My father reached down,   14   the bill, tapped the man on the shoulder and said,“Excuse me, sir, this fell   15   your pocket.”

  The man knew what was going on.He wasn’t begging for a handout(施舍)but certainly   16   the help in a desperate, heartbreaking, embarrassing   17  .He looked straight into my dad’s eyes, took my dad’s hand in both of his, squeezed   18   onto the $20 bill, and with his lip quivering(顫抖)and a tear running down his cheek, he replied,“Thank you, thank you, sir.This really means   19   to me and my family.

  My father and I went back to our car and drove home.We didn’t go to the circus that night,   20   we didn’t go without.
