He had forgotten her name.Barbara hid her valuable things when she went on vacation. When she came back, she couldnt remember where shed put them.Perhaps youve had such experiences like these. Most people have. But most of them havent realized that they have a memory problem. Neither do they know a simple but important fact: Memory can be improved. If youll just accept that, the following will show you how.First, relax. If you are over worried about remembering something, youll forget it. If you keep telling yourself that your memory is bad, your mind will come to believe it and you wont remember things. When you forget something, dont follow up with sayings like “Oh, my God! I always forget things!” Such words will have a bad result on you and your memory.But relaxing isnt enough. To improve your memory, youll need to take an active role. Like your body, your memory can be made strong through exercise. Look for opportunities to exercise your memory. For example, if youre learning a language, try to actively remember a lot of new words.If you dont take notice of things actively, you wont remember them. So, you can make pictures of what you see in your mind every day. For example, dont just put your keys down! If you want to find them again, make a mind picture of the place where youre putting them.( ) 41. The first two paragraphs just tell us _. A. Barbara was a very rich personB.

In 1799, scientists studied works of art made at different times from 1,500 B.C. to the 1950s. Most of the people shown in these works are right-handed, so the scientists guessed that right-handedness has always been common through history. Today, only about 10% to 15% of the worlds population is left-handed. Why are there more right-handed people than left-handed ones? Scientists now know that a persons two hands each have their own jobs. For most people, the hand is used to find things or hold things. The right hand is used to work with things. This is because of the different work of the two sides of the brain. The right side of the brain, which makes a persons hands and eyes work together, controls the left hand. The left-side of the brain, which controls the right hand, is the centre for thinking and doing problems. These findings show that more artists should be left-handed, and studies have found that left-handedness is twice as common among artists as among people in other jobs. No one really knows what makes a person become right-handed instead of left-handed. Scientists have found that almost 40% of the people become left-handed because their main brain is damaged when they are born. However, this doesnt happen to everyone, so scientists guess there must be another reason why people become left-handed. One idea is that people usually get right-handed from their parents. If a person does not receive the gene(基因) for right-handedness, he/ she may become either right-handed or left-handed according to the chance and the people they work or live with. Though right-handedness is more common than left-handedness, people no longer think left-handed people are strange or unusual. A long time ago, left-handed children were made to use their right hands like other children, but today they dont have to.34. How many people in the world are left-handed now?A. Less than one sixth. B. More than a half. C. About 40%. D. The passage doesnt tell us.35. Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word “damaged” in this passage? A. knocked B. changed C. broke D. harmed36. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true? A. No one really knows what makes a person become right-handed. B. Left-handedness is cleverer than right-handedness. C. Today children are not made to use their right hands only. D. Scientists think there must be some reason why people become left-handed.37. The best title for this passage is _. A. Scientists New Inventions B. Left-handed People C. Which Hand D. Different Brains, Different Hands参考答案3437、ADBC（来自2016中考模拟训练）阅读下列短文，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳选项。Have you ever had an embarrassing (尴尬的) experience? Last week we asked readers to tell us about embarrassing experience. We received thousands of letters ! Here is a selection. Tony : My most embarrassing experience happened when I had just left university. I had just started teaching in a Liverpool secondary school. One morning my alarm clock didnt ring. I woke up at half past eight and school began at nine. I quickly washed, dressed, jumped into my car and rushed to school. When I arrived, the students had already gone into class. I didnt go to the office, but went straight into class. After two or three minutes the students began laughing, and I couldnt understand why! Suddenly I looked down and understood. I had put on one black shoe and one brown shoe ! Henry : The most embarrassing experience Ive ever had, happened two years ago. After seeing a film,my wife and I had lunch in our favourite restaurant in town. Then we decided to take a walk along the street. The street was very busy and we started holding hands. Suddenly my wife saw a dress that she liked in a shop window, and stopped. I started looking at some watches in the next window. After a minute or two I reached for my wifes hand. There was a loud scream, and a woman slapped my face. I hadnt taken my wifes hand. Id taken the hand of a complete stranger ! James:My wife and I had decided to buy a new house, and Id made an appointment to see our bank manager. Id never met him before. I went into town in my car and I was lucky enough to find a parking space outside the bank. Id just started reversing (倒车) into the space when another car made its way into it. I was irritated! I opened my window and shouted at the man in the car. He ignored me and walked away. It took me twenty minutes to find another place. As soon as I had parked the car,I rushed back to the bank. I was ten minutes late for my appointment. I went to the managers office,knocked and walked in. The manager was sitting behind his desk. He was the man who had taken my parking space! 25.
