18、wn personal memory, your brain? Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how. In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments. She and her research team wanted to know how the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment, they gave people

19、40 unimportant facts to type into a computer. The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information. The second group understood that the computer would not save it. Later, the second group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could fin

20、d the formation again, so they did not try to remember it. In another experiment, the researchers gave facts to remember, and told them where to find the formation on the computer. The information was in a specify computer folder (文件夾). Surprisingly, people later remembered the folder location (位

21、置)better than the facts. When people use the Internet, they do not remember the information. Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called “transactive memory (交互記憶). According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet. Instead, computer users are

22、developing stronger transactive memories； that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date.

26、They cover events such as court cases, plays, and sporting events. They interview people to get their views about what is going on. Reporters must be able to write a story quickly so as to meet a deadline. People do not want to read old news. They want to know what is going on as soon as it happens.

27、 Reporters sometimes phone or e-mail their notes and quotations (引用語) to the paper from the scene. A reporter in the office then writes the story. A “stringer” is a part-time reporter who works when called upon. A fire might break out in one part of town. An editor may ask a stringer who lives nea

28、r the scene to cover the story. Reporters often work with photographers, or photojournalists. Photojournalists take the pictures that illustrate (圖解) the stories in a newspaper.

35、傳媒并沒出局，因特網成為傳統(tǒng)傳媒的助手。 (2) D推理判斷題。第二段和第三段指出了傳統(tǒng)傳媒業(yè)占據市場的種種依據。第二段尾句印證了A項，第三段第一句和第四句印證了B項和C項。 (3) B細節(jié)理解題。最后一段第一句說報業(yè)壟斷是因為 “they have the biggest investment in news。 (4) A主旨大意題。本文主要講述傳統(tǒng)的傳媒(報紙)并未因為因特網的出現(xiàn)而被排擠出去。B項與全文意思相悖;C項和D項原文未提及。 (5) D推理判斷題。從全文可看出作者對傳統(tǒng)傳媒業(yè)的。 2. (1)-(5)ABCDB (1) A細節(jié)理解題。由第一段第二句話“The e

36、arliest daily newspaper was started in Rome in 59 BC.，，可推知答案。 (2) B細節(jié)理解題。由第一段最后一句“Europe didn’t have a regularly published newspaper until 1609, when one was started in Germany. ”可推知答案。 (3) C細節(jié)理解題。第三段第一句話“In 1690，Benjamin Harris printed the first American newspaper in Boston”表明C項為正確答案。 (4) D細節(jié)理解題

37、。第三段最后一句話提到現(xiàn)在美國有 大約1 800份日報，故D項正確。 (5) B細節(jié)理解題。由最后一段我們可以看出，日本的《讀賣新聞》發(fā)行量每天超過10 000 000份，而不是英語報紙。 3. (1)-(3)ADA 解析：(1) A 推理判斷題。文章只要討論網絡是否引起人們的大腦記憶事情的變化。作者首先用兩個問題來引出話題，因此A項最佳。 (2) D 細節(jié)理解題。由文章第三段中的“when people use the internet, they do not remember the information. Rather they remember how to fin

38、d it. ”可知，在這樣的情況下，人們更容易記住怎樣找到信息，而不是信息的內容。故選D項。 (3) A 推理判斷題。由文章最后一段最后一句 “This doesn’t mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.”可排除BC，確定A項正確。 4. (1)- (5) ADCAB 解析：【語篇解讀】　本文介紹了報紙新聞工作者的常見職位和職責。 (1) A 代詞指代題。根據上句的People do no

39、t want to read和本句的want to可知，此處they指的是上文中的people，也就是報紙的讀者。 (2) D 細節(jié)理解題。根據第五段的Large newspaper groups have correspondents in foreign countries to report the news there可知應選D項。correspondent指的是專門負責報道某一地區(qū)或者某一領域的記者。 (3) C 推理判斷題。根據最后一段的they have a “nose for news”. They can spot news as it happens可知，記者和編輯都具有發(fā)現(xiàn)新聞的能力。nose此處指“感知、發(fā)現(xiàn)的能力”。 (4) A 寫作目的題。該文旨在介紹新聞工作者的常見職位和職責，故A項最符合題意。 (5) B文章結構題。作者在開頭概括了文章所要說明的四個要點：reporters，photographers，correspondents，and editors。第二段和第三段都是介紹“記者”的。B項結構圖準確地描述了本文的結構。
