解析
文章大意:人生有很多大事和小事构成,每天都会有很多事情要处理,应该如何处理它们呢?教授用一个鹅卵石的例子,告诉我们,应该将精力用在主要的事情上。
小题1:A教授的工作室给学生上课,这里lecture表示“讲课”。
小题1:D没有给学生授课,他在桌子上放了一些别的东西。instead表示“代替,反而”。though尽管;虽然—表让步;besides除了还;otherwise否则。
小题1:B根据下文的empty jar可知教授在动这个缸,因此选B,他拿起这个缸。
小题1:A根据下文的the jar appeared full,可以推断教授往缸中注入小石头。
小题1:B instantly用作连词,表示“一……就”,下文的The moment pouring was…给出了暗示。
小题1:D下文的答语that jar was indeed full表明学生们都同意教授的问话。
小题1:A下文的As a result of that, all the small rocks…给出了提示
小题1:B倾倒鹅卵石结束/完成。complete是形容词,表示“结束,完工”。
小题1:A鹅卵石滑落到石块的缝隙间,并没有与石块融合,roll into表示“滚入”。
小题1:B听到教授的问题,学生们在回答。response相当于answer,表示“响应, 答复”。
小题1:D句中的silently说明教授没有说话。
小题1:D remaining用作形容词,表示“剩余的,剩下的”。left是过去分词,常做后置定语;remain是不及物动词。
小题1:C教授又一次问了学生们这个问题,故这里指重复以上的问题。
小题1:A根据上文的He poured the box into the jar可知此时此刻教授面朝缸,因此他转过身来问学生。
小题1:B这个缸象征着人的生命,而并不意味着生命,因此排除B。represent表示“代表, 象征”; compete竞争, 对抗;match和…相配, 较量。
小题1:B该空后的内容在解释the most important things,故选that is是插入语。
小题1:C文中的your partner, health都不属于家人,因此排除A、B选项;children与partner都属于家人。
小题1:A because在解释生命依然充实的原因。
小题1:A作者在委婉的建议把时间精力花在重要事情上。energy表示人的精力、活力。
小题1:C把时间和精力花在小事情上,就没有重要事情的空间了。room在这里用于比喻。

Water is also a source of energy and power.Man build huge dams across the rivers to control the water for irrigation and get the energy needed to drive generators.The electrical power is then directed to homes, cities, factories and television stations.

According to a new study by a British university, learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power. Researchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter. This is the area of the brain which processes information. It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles.
The study also found the earlier people learn a second language, the greater the effect is.
A team led by Dr. Andrea Mechelli, from University College London(UCL), took a group of Britons who only spoke English. They were compared with a group of “early bilinguals(通两种语言的人)”, who had learnt a second language before the age of five, as well as a number of later learners.
Scans showed that grey matter density in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language. But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language, the smaller the difference was.
“Our findings suggest that the structure of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language,” said the scientists.
It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn.
Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales, has researched the link between bilingualism and maths skills.
“Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible,” he said, “You are actually going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas.”
The findings were matched in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of 2 and 34. Reading, writing and comprehension were all tested. The results showed that the earlier they started to learn, the better. “Studying a language means you get an entrance to another world,” explained the scientists.
小题1: What does the underlined part “grey matter” (in Paragraph 2) refer to?
A.Grey hair. | B.Material of the brain. |
C.Intelligence. | D.Difficult situations. |
A.change one’s brain completely | B.improve one’s maths skills |
C.make one smarter than others | D.increase the ability to learn |
A.the researchers from UCL did another study in Italy |
B.a similar study was done on native Italian speakers who learn English as a second language |
C.the research done on the Italians showed a totally different result |
D.it will be easier for one to travel around the world by learning a second language |
A.Learning a second language can help improve your brain power. |
B.You should learn a second language that is not your native language. |
C.If you want to learn a second language, you should do it at a certain age. |
D.The research done by the researchers from UCL is very successful. |
On the other hand, there are more crowded and less mobile societies where long–term relationships are more important. A Malaysian or Mexican business person, for example, will want to get to know you very well before he or she feels happy to start business. But when you do get to know each other, the relationship becomes much deeper than it would in a mobile society.
To Americans, both Europeans and Asians seem cool and formal at first. On the other hand, as a passenger from a less mobile society puts it, it’s no fun spending several hours next to a stranger who wants to tell you all about his or her life and asks you all sorts of questions that you don’t want to answer.
Cross-cultural differences aren’t just a problem for travelers, but also for the flights that carry them. All flights want to provide the best service, but ideas about good service are different from place to place. This can be seen most clearly in the way that problems are dealt with.
Some societies have “universalist” cultures. These societies strongly respect rules, and they treat every person and situation in basically the same way. “Particularist” societies, on the other hand, also have rules, but they are less important than the society’s unwritten ideas about what is right or wrong for a particular situation or a particular person. So the normal rules are changed to fit the needs of the situation or the importance of the person.
This difference can cause problems. A traveler from a particularist society, India, is checking in for a flight in Germany, a country which has a universalist culture. The Indian traveler has too much luggage, but he explains that he has been away from home for a long time and the suitcases are full of presents for his family. He expects that the check–in official will understand his problem and will change the rules for him. The check–in official explains that if he was allowed to have too much luggage, it wouldn’t be fair to the other passengers. But the traveler thinks this is unfair, because the other passengers don’t have his problem.
小题1:Often moving from one place to another makes people like Americans and Australians ______.
A.like traveling better |
B.easy to communicate with |
C.difficult to make real friends |
D.have a long–term relationship with their neighbors |
A.who will tell them everything of their own |
B.who want to do business with them |
C.they know quite well |
D.who are good at talking |
A.There is no rule for people to obey. |
B.People obey the society’s rules completely. |
C.No one obeys the society’s rules though they have. |
D.The society’s rules can be changed with different persons or situations. |
A.interests | B.habits and customs | C.cultures | D.ways of life |

As you get closer to middle school, a computer with Internet access becomes more of a necessity. Teachers will often give assignments that require a student to use the Internet for research. After a computer, technology choices for students become more difficult to make – especially when it comes to cell-phones. Kids will beg their parents for a cell-phone, especially in middle school. For many parents, it’s a safety issue: They want to know that their kids can reach them quickly if necessary. For teachers, cell phones can be used to record lessons when students are absent. But many teachers dislike cell-phones. Some kids send messages or have talks in the class. Sending messages also raises the problem of cheating on exams. More and more schools are now forbidding the use of cell-phones.
Many kids see iPods as necessary things to have. IPods are great for music, but do they do anything good for your children’s education? Maybe they do. That’s the opinion of Doug Johnson, an educator for 30 years. Johnson says that educators should accept all new forms of technology in the classroom, including iPods. “Some do more with their cell- phones than we can do with our laptops,” he jokes. “I don’t think we should be afraid. The truth is that it’s easier to change the way we teach than to change the technology habits of an entire generation.”
