A
A new study shows students who write notes by hand during lectures perform better on
exams than those who use laptops.
Students are increasingly using laptops for note-taking because of speed and legibility. But
the research has found laptop users are less able to remember and apply the concepts they have
been taught.
Researchers performed experiments that aimed to find out whether using a laptop increased
the te
ndency to make notes ”mindlessly” by taking down word for word what the professors said.

In the first experiment, students were given either a laptop or pen and paper. They listened to
the same lectures and were examined on their ability and to remember facts and on how well they
understood concept.
The researchers found that laptop users took twice as many notes as those wrote by hand.
However, the type is performed worse at remembering and applying the concepts. Both groups
scored similarly when it comes to memorizing facts.
The researchers’ report said, “ While more notes are beneficial, if the notes are taken
mindlessly, as is more likely the case on a laptop, the benefit disappears.
In another experiment aimed at testing long-term memory, students took notes as before but
were tested a week after the lecture. This time, the students who wrote notes by hand performed
significantly better on the exam.
These two experiments suggest that handwritten notes are not only better for immediate
learning and understanding, but that they also lead to superior revision in the future.
21.

More and more students favor laptops for note-taking because they can___.
A write more notes
C get higher scores


B digest concepts better
D understand lectures better
22. While taking notes, laptops users tend to be___.

B mindless
D tireless
C thoughtful

23. The author of the passage aims to ___.

B stress the benefit of taking notes by hand
C explain the process of taking notes
D promote the use of laptops.
24. The passage is likely to appear in ___.
A a newspaper advertisement

B a computer textbook

D a finance report
B
(Q=Question; A=Answer)
Situation 1
Q: If someone sits right next to me in an empty movie theater, is it rude to move
A
：
Maybe, but nobody will fault you for it. Chances are that the close sitter doesn’t realize he
disturbs you, so he may miss your annoyance. You undoubtedly aren’t the first person he’s met
who needs enough room. Forgive his bad judgment, move quietly and enjoy the show.
Situation 2
Q:If I use the bathroom at a store, do I need to buy something
A: Consider frequently and urgency. Is this a one-
time thing or an emergency If so, you don’t have
to buy anything, but it would be kind if you did. However, if you regularly use the bathroom at
this place, then you are a customer, and you should act like one.
Situation 3
Q: If someone is talking loudly on the bus, is there a nice way to ask him to keep it down
A: No. Try other means:1) Stare at him until he gets aware of it and quiets down.

2) Lift your
finger in a silence motion and smile. 3) Put on earphones and ignore him.
Situation 4
Q: If I remember my friend’s birthday a day late, should I apologize or just wish her a hap
py
birthday like nothing happened
A: This is the reason why the word belated was invented. “ Happy belated birthday!” is short for:
“Well, I know I forgot, but then I remembered. Forgive me and happy birthday.”

Situation 5
Q: Can I lie about seeing a text because I was too busy or lazy to respond to it
A: Don’t lie. Receiving a text does not mean you need to respond to it. Why waste a perfectly
good lie when the truth will serve “Yes,”you can say if ever asked, “ I saw it.” No explanation is
needed as to wh
y you don’t respond.

25. You will get annoyed in a theater when___.
A a person is too active
B a person is too rude to you
C a person talks too loudly
D a person sits too close to you
26. How will you quiet someone down in a public place
A. By making fun of him continuously
B By looking purposefully at him
C By talking to him directly
D By pointing angrily at him
27. The underlined word “belated” in Situation 5 probably means___.

A predicted
B returned


C cancelled

D delayed
28. What is the passage mainly about
A Modern ways to mind your manners.
B Different ways to change others’ manners

C Proper manners to offer help to others
D Good manners to talk to people
C
Would it surprise you to learn that, like animals, trees communicate with each other and pass
on their wealth to the next generation
UBC Professor Simard explained how trees are much more complex than most of us ever
imagined. Although Charles Darwin thought that trees are competing for survival of the fittest,
Simard shows just how wrong he was. In fact, the opposite is true: trees survive through their
co-
operation and support, passing around necessary nutrition “depending on who needs it”.

Nitrogen and carbon are shared through miles of underground fungi networks, making sure
that all tress in the forest ecological system give and receive just the right amount to keep them all
healthy. This hidden system works in a very similar way to the networks of neurons in our brains,
and when one tree is destroyed, it affects all.
Simard talks about “mother trees”, usually the largest and oldest plants on which all other
trees depend. She explains how dying trees pass on the wealth to the next generation, transporting
important minerals to young tress so they may continue to grow. When humans cut down “mother

trees” with no awareness of these highly complex “tree societies” of the networks on which they
feed, we are reducing the chances of survival for the entire forest.
“ We didn’t take any notice of
it
.” Simard says sadly. “ Dying trees move nutrition into t
he
young trees before dying, but we never give them chance.” If we could put across the message to
the forestry industry, we could make a huge difference towards our environmental protection
efforts for the future.
29. The underlined sentence “ the opposite is true” in Paragraph 2 probably means that trees___.

A compete for survival
B protect their own wealth
C depend on each other
D provide support for dying tress
30. “Mother trees” are extremely important because they ___.

A look the largest in size in the forest
B pass on nutrition to young trees
C seem more likely to be cut down by humans
D know more about the complex “tree societies”

31. The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to ___.

A how “tree societies ” work

B how trees grow old
C how forestry industry develops
D how young trees survive
32. What would be the best title for the passage
A Old Trees Communicate Like Humans
B Young Trees Are In Need Of Protection
C Trees Are More Awesome That You Think
D Trees Contribute To Our Society
D
Travis is the manager of G&G where he is responsible for forty employees and profits of
over $$2 million per year. He’s never late to work. He does not get upset on the job. When one of
his employees started crying after a customer screamed at her, Travis to
ok her away. “Your
working uniform is your shelter,” he told her, “ Nothing anyone says will ever hurt you. You will
always be as strong as you want to be.”

Travis picked up that lecture in one of his G&G training courses, an education program that
began o
n his first day and continue throughout an employee’s occupation. The training has Travis
says, changed his life. G&G has taught him how to live. how to focus, how to get to work on time,
and how to master his emotions. Most importantly, it taught him willpower.
At the center of that education is an extreme focus on an all-important habit willpower.
Dozens of cases show that willpower is the single most important habit for a person’s success.

And the best way to strengthen willpower is to make it into a hab
it. “sometimes it looks like
people with great self-
control aren’t working hard—but that’s because they’ve made it
automatic. ” Angela Duckworth, one of the University of Pennsylvania researchers said, “ Their
willpower occurs without them having to think
about it.”

The company spent millions of dollars developing programs of study to train employees on
self-control. Managers wrote workbooks that serve as guides to how to make willpower a habit in
workers’ lives. Those courses are, in part, why
G&G has grown from a sleepy company into a
large one with more than seventeen thousand stores and profits of more $$ 10 billion year.
33. We learn from Paragraph 2 that employees in G&G must___.
A learn to give lectures
B attend education programs
C design a working uniform
D develop a common hobby
34. Willpower will become a habit when employees can___.
A focus on the profits
B benefit from the job
C protect themselves well
D control their feelings well
35. What can we infer from the passage
A G&G has grow into a large company
B G&G will spend half its profits training employees
C G&G may become more successful in the future
D G&G has to produce more workbooks for managers
