4[阅读题,11.1分] Upon reaching an appropriate age (usually between 18 and 21 years), children are encouraged, but not forced, to “leave the nest” and begin an independent life. After children leave home they often find social relationship and financial support outside the family. Parents do not arrange marriages for their children, nor do children usually ask permission of their parents to get married. Romantic love is most often the basis for marriage in the United States; young adults meet their future spouses (配偶) through other friends, at jobs, and in organizations and religious institutions. Although children choose their own spouses, they still hope their parents will approve of their choices. In many families, parents feel that children should make major life decisions by themselves. A parent may try to influence a child to follow a particular profession but the child is free to choose another career. Sometimes children do precisely the opposite of what their parents wish in order to assert their independence. A son may deliberately decide not to go into his father’s business because of a fear that he will lose his autonomy in his father’s workplace. This independence from parents is not an indication that parents and children do not love each other. Strong love between parents and children is universal and this is no exception in the American family. Coexisting with such love in the American family are cultural values of self-reliance and independence. 1. The writer discusses the marriage of young adults in order to show that they _____. A. enjoy the freedom of choosing their spouses B. want to win the permission of their parentsC. have a strong desire to become independent D. try to challenge the authority of their parents 2. Most young adults in America would get married for the sake of ____. A. love B. financial concern C. their parents D. family background 3. Based on the passage, it can be inferred that _____. A. American young adults are likely to follow the suit of their parents. B. most American parents never make major decisions for their children. C. American young adults possess cultural values of independence. D. when a young adult steps into his twenties, he will leave his home permanently. 4. A son is unwilling to work in his father’s business mainly because he _____. A. wishes to make full use of what he has learnt in school B. wants to prove his independence C. likes to do the opposite of what his parents approve of D. tries to show his love for his parents 5. The subject matter of this passage is _____.A. cultural values in the American family B. marriage arrangements C. young adult’s pursuit of a career D. decision making CACBA

5[阅读题,11.1分] Psychological research has focused on a number of basic principles that help memory: meaningfulness, organization, association, and visualization. It is useful to know how there principles work. Meaningfulness affects memory at all levels. Information that does not make any sense to you is difficult to remember. There are several ways in which we can make material more meaningful. Many people, for instance, learn a rhyme to help them remember. Do you know the rhyme "Thirty days has September, April, June, and November..."? It helps many people remember which months of the year have 30 days. Organization also makes a difference in our ability to remember. How useful would a library be if the books were kept in random order? Material that is organized is better remembered than jumbled information. One example of organization is chunking. Chunking consists of grouping separate bits of information. For example, the number 4671363 is more easily remembered if it is chunked as 467, 13, 63. Categorizing is another means of organization. Suppose you are asked to remember the following list of words: man, bench, dog, desk, woman, horse, child, cat, chair. Many people will group the words into similar categories and remember them as follows: man, woman, child; cat, dog, horse; bench, chair, desk. Needless to say, the second list can be remembered more easily than the first one. Association refers to taking the material we want to remember and relating it to something we remember accurately. In memorizing a number, you might try to associate it with familiar numbers or events. For example, the height of Mount Fuji in Japan -12,389 feet -might be remembered using the following associations: 12 is the number of months in the year, and 389 is the number of days in a year (365) added to the number of months twice (24). The last principle is visualization. Research has shown striking improvements in many types of memory tasks when people are asked to visualize the items to be remembered. In one study, subjects in one group were asked to learn some words using imagery, while the second group used repetition to learn the words. Those using imagery remembered 80 to 90 percent of the words, compared with 30 to 40 percent of the words for those who memorized by repetition. Thus forming an integrated image with all the information placed in a single mental picture can help us to preserve a memory. 1. What kind of information is easy for us to remember? A. Information that does not make any sense to us. B. Information that we are not familiar with.C. Information that is meaningful to us. D. Information that we are not interested in. 2. Which of the following pairs are rhymes? A. horse—house B. right---white C. come----home D. how---low 3.The second list of words in para.3 is organized according to（）. A. the rhyme B. the word category C. the first letters of words D. the meanings 4. Books are kept in a library（） . A. according to their size B. in random order C. in a jumbled way D. in different categories 5. What method can better help form a whole mental picture about the tings to be remembered? A. Grouping B. Repetition C. Imagery D. AssociationC|B|B|D|C
