10、o a friend. He looked at me for a moment, and then wrote a sentence containing the best advice Ive ever had: Be bold and brave and mighty （强大的） forces will come to your aid.Those words made me see clearly that when I had fallen short in the past, it was seldom because I had tried and failed. It was

11、usually because I had let fear of failure stop me from trying at all. On the other hand, whenever I had plunged into deep water, forced by courage or circumstance, I had always been able to swim until I got my feet on the ground again.Boldness means a decision to bite off more than you are sure you

13、nes. A college classmate of mine, Tim, was an excellent football player, even though he weighed much less than the average player. “In one game I suddenly found myself confronting a huge player, who had nothing but me between him and our goal line,” said Tim. “I was so frightened that I closed my ey

19、are people remember less? If you know your computer will save information, why store it in your own 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

20、 wanted to know the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment, they gave people 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 seco

21、nd group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the Internet. The information was

22、in a specific computer folder （文件夹）. Surprisingly, people later remember the folder location （位置） 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 （交互记忆）.”According to Sparrow, we are n

23、ot becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet. Instead, computer users are 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. This doesnt mean we are becoming ei

24、ther more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.9. The passage begins with two questions to _.

25、_.A. keep the information in mind B. change the quantity of information C. organize information like a computer D. remember how to find the information11. What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrows research? A. We are using memory differently. B. We are becoming more intelligent.C. We

26、have poorer memories than before.D. We need a better way to access information.DPapa, as a son of a dirt-poor farmer, left school early and went to work in a factory, for education was for the rich then. So, the world became his school. With great interest, he read everything he could lay his hands

27、on, listened to the town elders and learned about the world beyond his tiny hometown. “Theres so much to learn,” hed say. “Though were born stupid, only the stupid remain that way.” He was determined that none of his children would be denied （拒绝） an education.Thus, Papa insisted that we learn at lea

28、st one new thing each day. Though, as children, we thought this was crazy, it would never have occurred to us to deny Papa a request. And dinner time seemed perfect for sharing what we had learned. We would talk about the news of the day; no matter how insignificant, it was never taken lightly. Papa

29、 would listen carefully and was ready with some comment, always to the point.

Well . . . ” hed say. “Get the map; lets see where Nepal is.” And the whole family went on a search for Nepal.This same

31、 experience was repeated until each family member had a turn. Dinner ended only after we had a clear understanding of at least half a dozen such facts.As children, we thought very little about these educational wonders. Our family, however, was growing together, sharing experiences and participating in one anothers education. And by looking at us, listening to us, respecting our input, affirming （肯定） our value, giving us a sense of dignity, Papa was unquestionably our most influential teacher.Later during my training as a future teacher, I studied with some of th
