12、 Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET.One of the most dangerous drugs for pregnant women to consume is alcohol. Because alcohol is 17 quickly into the blood and passes quickly into the 16 and membranes, the human fetus is particularly 18 to its effect. In fact, the negative e

13、ffects on a fetus are so 19 that babies born after 20 to alcohol are said to be suffering from fetal alcohol 21 . 22 a pregnant woman drinks alcohol, the alcohol is passed into the bloodstream almost 23 . Moreover, because the bloodstream of the fetus is 24 that of the mother, the alcohol passes dir

14、ectly into the fetus as well. 25 , whats more, the 26 of alcohol in the fetus is exactly the same as in the mother.For the mother, this concentration is not a problem because her liver can 27 one ounce of alcohol from her system per hour. However, the fetus liver is not completely 28 . The rate at w

By the time this 31 , major neurological damage may have already 32 . Research has shown that as little as o

Each passage is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are fou

21、r choices marked A, B, C and D. Decide on the best choice and then mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Most people can remember a phone number for up to thirty seconds. When this short amount of time elapses, however, the numbers are erased from the memory. How did the information get ther

22、e in the first place? Information that makes its way to the short term memory (STM) does so via the sensory storage area. The brain has a filter which only allows stimuli that is of immediate interest to pass on to the STM, also known as the working memory.There is much debate about the capacity and

23、 duration of the short term memory. The most accepted theory comes from George A. Miller, a cognitive psychologist who suggested that humans can remember approximately seven chunks of information. A chunk is defined as a meaningful unit of information, such as a word or name rather than just a lette

24、r or number. Modern theorists suggest that one can increase the capacity of the short term memory by chunking, or classifying similar information together. By organizing information, one can optimize the STM, and improve the chances of a memory being passed on to long term storage.When making a cons

25、cious effort to memorize something, such as information for an exam, many people engage in “rote rehearsal”. By repeating something over and over again, we are able to keep a memory alive. Unfortunately, this type of memory maintenance only succeeds if there are no interruptions. As soon as a person

26、 stops rehearsing the information, it has the tendency to disappear. When a pen and paper are not handy, you might attempt to remember a phone number by repeating it aloud. If the doorbell rings or the dog barks to come in before you get the opportunity to make your phone call, you will forget the n

27、umber instantly. Therefore, rote rehearsal is not an efficient way to pass information from the short term to long term memory. A better way is to practice “elaborate rehearsal”. This involves assigning semantic meaning to a piece of information so that it can be filed along with other pre-existing

28、long term memories.Encoding information semantically also makes it more retrievable. Retrieving information can be done by recognition or recall. Humans can recall memories that are stored in the long term memory and used often. However, if a memory seems to be forgotten, it may eventually be retrie

29、ved by prompting. The more cues a person is given (such as pictures), the more likely a memory can be retrieved. This is why multiple choice tests are often used for subjects that require a lot of memorization.36. According to the passage, how do memories get transferred to the STM?A. They revert fr

30、om the long term memory.B. They are filtered from the sensory storage area.C. They get chunked when they enter the brain.D. They enter via the nervous system.37. How do theorists believe a person can remember more information in a short time?A. By organizing itB. By repeating itC. By giving it a nam

31、e.D. By writing it down on paper.38. Why does the author mention a dogs bark?A. To exemplify poor memory.B. To analyze a type of interruption.C. To compare human memory with dogs memory.D. To illustrate the lack of efficiency of rote rehearsal.39. Which of the following is true about retrieving info

32、rmation?A. Elaborate rehearsal contributes to information retrieval.B. The most efficient way of retrieving information is to assign semantic meaning to the information.C. Its impossible to retrieve forgotten information without picture prompts.D. Encoding information is more efficient than chunking it.40. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Ones memory capacity can be
