Human beings are so smart that we are capable of handling emergencies,reading people's feelings and becoming close friends with each other.But are we as smart as we think?
  It seems that people are gradually losing their smartness as smart phones become increasingly important (29)Hin their lives.As we rely too much on technology instead of our brains,many people have lost three basic abilities.
So,are you also a (30)Kof smart phone's intelligence?The first skill many people have lost is remembering phone numbers.Because phone numbers are stored in smart phone (31)A,there's now no need to dial a number or look at it again.This is fine until you need to call someone for help,only to find your phone is not around.
Furthermore,some people have lost their sense of direction because navigation apps,which can find the shortest routes for you to avoid traffic jams,may (32)Dpeople anywhere they want.People get so (33)Bon them that they get lost and anxious if their smart phones are not (34)G.
The worst lost skills may be social ones.People often bury themselves in their smart phones so that we are too (35)Jby what's happening in the virtual world.As a result,for lack of face-to-face (36)E,conversational skills are lost.
Luckily,people still have a chance to get these abilities back.We need to keep parents'numbers in mind for (37)I.In addition,more attention should be paid to street signs and stores,which will help to (38)Ca mind map and prevent people from getting lost.
We are social creatures and need device-free time.Therefore,the easiest solution to social skill loss is to take a break from electronic devices.

7.Can you believe your eyes?A recent experiment suggests that the answer to that question may depend on your age.
    Martin Doherty,a psychologist at the University of Stirling in Scotland,led the team of scientists.In this experiment,Doherty and his team tested the perception(觀察力) of some people,using pictures of some orange circles.The researchers showed the same pictures to two groups of people.The first group included 151 children aged 4 to 10,and the second group included 24 adults aged 18 to 25.
The first group of pictures showed two circles alone on a white background.One of the circles was larger than the other,and these people were asked to identify the larger one.Four-year-olds identified the correct circle 79 percent of the time.Adults identified the correct circle 95 percent of the time.
Next,both groups were shown a picture where the orange circles,again of different sizes,were surrounded by gray circles.Here's where the trick lies in.In some of the pictures,the smaller orange circle was surrounded by even smaller gray circles-making the orange circle appear larger than the other orange circle,which was the real larger one.And the larger orange circle was surrounded by even bigger gray circles-so it appeared to be smaller than the real smaller orange circle.
When young children aged 4 to 6 looked at these tricky pictures,they weren't fooled-they were still able to find the bigger circle with roughly the same accuracy(準確性) as before.Older children and adults,on the other hand,did not do as well.Older children often identified the smaller circle as the larger one,and adults got it wrong most of the time.
As children get older,Doherty said,their brains may develop the ability to identify visual(視覺的) context.In other words,they will begin to process the whole picture at once:the tricky gray circles,as well as the orange circle in the middle.As a result,they're more likely to fall for this kind of visual trick.
25.Doherty and his team of scientists did an experiment to evaluateC.
A.children's and adults'eye-sight             
B.children's and adults'brains
C.pe ople's ability to see accurately            
D.the influence of people's age
26.When asked to find the larger circle,A.
A.children at 4 got it right about 79% of the time with gray ones around
B.only adults over 18 got it right 95% of the time with gray ones around
C.children at 6 got it wrong 79% of the time with no gray ones around
D.a(chǎn)dults got it right most of the time with gray ones around
27.According to the passage,we can know thatC.
A.a(chǎn) smaller orange circle appears bigger on a white background
B.a(chǎn)n orange circle appears bigger than a gray one of the same size
C.a(chǎn) circle surrounded by bigger ones looks smaller than its real size
D.a(chǎn) circle surrounded by other circles looks bigger than its real size
28.Why are younger children not fooled?D.
A.Because they are smarter than older children and adults.
B.Because older people are influenced by their experience.
C.Because people's eyes become weaker as they grow older.
D.Because their brain can hardly notice related things together.
