It often seems that people have a hard time in speaking a seemingly familiar name. Did you ever have someone's name on the tip of your tongue and yet you were not able to recall it? When this happened,what did you do? Next time this happens again,what should you do?
You should not try to recall it. Instead, just do something else for a couple of minutes and then the name may come into your head. Why? The name is just there, since you have met this person and learned his name. It, waiting there, only has to be dug out. The initial(最初的) effort to recall prepares the mind for operation, but it is the subconscious (下意識的) activities that go to work to dig up a dim(模糊的)memory. Forcing yourself to recall almost never helps because it doesn't loosen your memory; it only tightens it.
That’s why students find the preparatory method greatly helpful in examinations. They read over the questions before trying to answer any of them. Then they answer first the ones of which they are most confident. At the same time, deeper mental activities in the subconscious mind are taking place; work is being done on the more difficult questions. By the time the easier questions are answered, answers to the more difficult ones will usually begin to come into consciousness. It is often just a question of waiting for recall to come to the memory.
You see, forcing ourselves to think hard to recall something usually doesn’t help. Chances are that the harder we think, the more difficulty we face in thinking of what we want to. Offering our mind time to work is what we are expected to do.

解析試題分析: 你有沒有遇到這種情況,一個熟悉的名字就在嘴邊然而卻叫不出來,而且越是使勁想就越想不出呢?在文中作者針對這種情況從科學角度進行了分析,也提出了應(yīng)對方法,即 :想不起來時就不要刻意去想,要讓大腦有個準備過程,然后你要想的東西自然就出現(xiàn)了。
【小題1】 fail。 信息轉(zhuǎn)換題。根據(jù)文章首句Did you ever have someone's name on the tip of your tongue and yet you were not able to recall it?可知人們有時候就在嘴邊的名字卻叫不上來。所以填fail。
【小題2】 supposed 。信息轉(zhuǎn)換題。根據(jù)文章第二段You should not try to recall it.可知當這種情況發(fā)生時,不應(yīng)該努力去想,所以填supposed。Be supposed to do意思是“應(yīng)該做某事”。
【小題3】 instead。 信息查找題。從文中Instead, just do something else for a couple of minutes and then the name may come into your head可知此處填instead。
【小題4】Reason/Cause 。信息歸納題。從文中Why? It, waiting there, only has to be dug out. The initial effort to recall prepares the mind for operation, but it is the subconscious activities that go to work to dig up a dimmemory.可以知道此處指出了原因。所以填Reason/Cause.
【小題5】 tight 。。從第二段Forcing yourself to recall almost never helps because it doesn't loosen your memory; it only tightens it. 可知強迫自己去想會讓大腦緊張。所以填tight。
【小題6】 help 。信息轉(zhuǎn)換題。從文章第三段That’s why students find the preparatory method greatly helpful in examinations.可知help為正確答案。
【小題7】 Meanwhile 。信息轉(zhuǎn)換題。根據(jù)文章第三段At the same time,可知此處是指“同時”所以填Meanwhile。
【小題8】happening。 信息轉(zhuǎn)換題。從文章中deeper mental activities in the subconscious mind are taking place可以知道潛意識在進行著,所以填happening。
【小題9】 Conclusion /Summary。 信息歸納題。根據(jù)以上對這種情況的分析,此處作者做出總結(jié),所以填conclusion /Summary。
【小題10】 dug 。信息查找題。根據(jù)文中第二段It, waiting there, only has to be dug out.可知填dug。
考點:考查信息匹配。

Tips for Being a Good Neighbor
【小題1】_______________
No one likes a noisy neighbor. Do you hold parties that last all night? Do you leave your dog outside to bark all day? Remember that not everyone has the same schedule as you do, so use some common sense. Keep noise to the lowest level. If you’re holding a party that’s likely to be loud, invite everyone within earshot.
【小題2】_________________
It’s much easier to solve any problem with neighbors if you have a friendly relationship with those around you. Furthermore, you may realize that you have things in common and make a lifelong friend.
【小題3】__________________
Once you know your neighbors, then you’ll also know if something seems out of place in the neighborhood. Are strange people carrying expensive things out of one neighbor’s house? Have several days passed since your elderly neighbor last collected his newspaper? The benefit of keeping an eye out for unusual behavior in the neighborhood is that others will do the same for you.
【小題4】___________________
It never hurts to follow the Golden Rule: Do to others what you would like them to do to you. Treat your neighbors with respect. Offer to drive an elderly neighbor to the grocery store. Volunteer to collect mail while a neighbor is on vacation. The more often you lend a helping hand, the more likely that your neighbors will do the same for you when you need a little help.
【小題5】_____________________
Don’t just limit your neighborly actions to your block or street. Remember that everyone who lives in a community has the ability to help make it a better place. Think about your passion and find a way to do it on a volunteer basis in your town. Volunteer at the local library. Enjoy working with kids. Consider becoming a scout leader. Whatever your passion is, there’s sure to be a thing suitable for you to help in the local community.

How to Avoid Weight Gain Over Holidays
Do you love the holidays, but hate the pounds that follow? You are not alone. Holidays are times for feasting and celebrating. Many people are worried about their weight. 【小題1】   Whether you are celebrating at the office party or sitting down for the traditional family dinner, regard eating as a time for tasting a variety of foods. The idea is to enjoy the holidays but not to eat too much. You don’t have to turn away from the foods that you enjoy.
Here are some tips for preventing weight gain and maintaining physical fitness:
Don’t skip meals.
Before you leave home, have a small, low-fat meal or snack.  【小題2】
Control portions.
Use a small plate (about 10 inches) and put aside the large ones that may encourage you to “l(fā)oad up.”   【小題3】Once you have your “tasting” serving, move away from the dining table. Doing so will make it less tempting (吸引人的) to be eating constantly as your appetite is inspired by the sight of food.
Begin with soup and fruit or vegetables.
Fill up beforehand with water-based soup and raw fruit or vegetables. Or drink a large glass of water before you eat to help you feel full.
Stick to physical activity.
_【小題4】A 20-minute walk after a meal can help burn off additional calories.
_【小題5】_ Dishes that look oily or creamy may have a large amount of fat. Choose lean meats. Fill your plate with salad and green vegetables. Use lemon juice instead of dressing or butter.

A.This may help to avoid getting too excited before delicious food.
B.You had better turn your attention away from delicious foods.
C.With proper planning, though, it is possible to keep normal weight during the holidays.
D.You should be most comfortable eating an amount of food about the size of your fist.
E. Avoid high-fat foods.
F. Don’t let exercise take a break during the holidays.
G. You’d better remember the Dos and Don’ts for keeping fit and slim.

NBA basketball players devote much of their lives to preparing for games. This preparation, which includes studying game films, practicing skills and treating injuries, is essential because of the pressure-packed nature of their profession.

How Writing Things Down Can Change Your Life
What do you write down? For most of us, writing consists of emails, task lists, and perhaps the odd work project. However, making time to write down certain things, such as our daily experiences, our goals, and our feelings can change the way we live our lives.
Here are five different ways that writing things down can change your life, and what you can do to get the most out of each.
【小題1】_____________________
David Allen, productivity speaker and author of Getting Things Done, recommends doing what he calls a “core dump”. This involves writing down every task, activity, and project you need to address. This could range from picking up milk on the way home, to a multi-person project at work. Writing down every “to-do” item you can think of clears space in your head for more important topics.
You can also use a technique called “morning pages”, which was pioneered by Julia Cameron, author of The Artist’s Way. Morning pages involves completing three pages (around 750 words) of stream-of-consciousness writing. Through doing this first thing each morning, you clear your head in preparation for the day’s most important thinking.
【小題2】 __________________________
Writing down what’s on your mind is a great way to work through inner conflict or process your feelings around a particular situation. It’s similar to talking a situation through with a friend, and it’s a useful way of strengthening your self-soothing (自我安慰)abilities.
【小題3】_________________________________
If you keep a journal and regularly write down your thoughts and feelings, you’ll soon have a record of your experiences that you might otherwise have forgotten. Keeping a journal can also enhance your levels of self-trust. When you can look back and see how successfully you’ve traversed and dealt with important decisions and tricky situations in the past, you’ll feel more confident in your ability to do so in the future.
【小題4】_____________________________________
If you write down everything you need to do in a particular day or week, you gain an additional sense of satisfaction, when having completed the task, you can cross the item off our list. Feeling productive enhances your productivity and fosters a sense of achievement and progress.
【小題5】____________________________________
No matter what’s going on in your outside world, when you write things down, you enter a world of possibility, which helps you stay motivated and gives you space to think big and aim high. When you write things down, you have a chance to explore dreams and ambitions that you might not feel safe revealing to anyone else yet. You also have a space to keep track of all your ideas and desires so you can return to them later.

The sea has always interested man. From it he can get food, minerals and treasure.  【小題1】 But he couldn’t go far beneath its surface.
 【小題2】 However, he isn’t a fish. Because he must breathe air, he can’t stay under the water’s surface for any length of time. To explore deep water, man faces even more dangers and problems.
A diver who wants to stay under water for more than a few minutes must breathe air or a special mixture of gases.  【小題3】 He can carry a tank of air on his back and breathe through a hose and a mouthpiece. Water weighs 800 times as much as air. Tons of water pushes against a diver deep in the sea. 【小題4】 .
When a diver is under great pressure, his blood takes in some of the gases he breathes. As he rises to the surface, the water pressure becomes less. If the diver rises too quickly, the gases in his blood form bubbles. The diver is then suffering from the bends(潛水員。. The bends can cause a diver to double up in pain.  【小題5】  

A.His body is under great pressure.
B.Scientists are trying to find more about the sea.
C.For thousands years, he could sail on it
