In France, where there was no unified (統(tǒng)一的) measurement system at the national level, the situation was particularly terrible. The lieue (former measure of distance), for example, varied from just over 3 km in the north to nearly 6 km in the south. Throughout much of human history, man has been the measure of many, if not all, things. Lengths were divided up into feet and smaller units from the human hand. Other measures were equally characteristic. Mediterranean traders for centuries used the weight of grains of wheat to define (定義) their units of mass. The Romans used libra, forerunner of the pound, by referring to the weight of a carob (角豆樹(shù)) seed.2.犇犇閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A、B、C和D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。所以選D。 (4)考查主旨大意。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的Adult language learners of a second language may use their declarative memory for using grammar patterns.可知,成年語(yǔ)言學(xué)習(xí)者在學(xué)習(xí)第二語(yǔ)言時(shí),是刻意地在使用語(yǔ)法句式。 such as how you learn to ride a bicycle.可知,程序性運(yùn)動(dòng)記憶就是我們常說(shuō)的運(yùn)動(dòng)記憶,比如學(xué)習(xí)騎自行車(chē)等技能,故選A。 (2)考查推理判斷。 (1)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。Human beings learn language in pre human area of brain.【答案】 (1)D(2)A(3)C(4)D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文,講述Michael Ullman和他的團(tuán)隊(duì)的研究稱人類大腦前區(qū)的為語(yǔ)言學(xué)習(xí)區(qū),由此解開(kāi)了人類大腦進(jìn)化過(guò)程之謎。A new research helps people learn a new language.C.s the main idea of the text?

Ullman says his research shows that the human brain does not have a special area or system for making language. Over time we have simply reused or coopted (指派) parts of our brain for language. And those parts, he says, are ancientolder even than humans themselves. A new study from brain researchers helps explain how the human brain evolved or changed over time, to permit people to speak and write.(英語(yǔ))高一英語(yǔ)閱讀理解(科普環(huán)保)解題技巧及練習(xí)題及解析一、高中英語(yǔ)閱讀理解科普環(huán)保類1.犇犇閱讀短文,從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。 Michael Ullman, the lead researcher, a professor at Georgetown University Medical School in Washington, , has been studying language learning for more than 20 years. This study examines the theoretical framework (準(zhǔn)則) that language is learned, stored and39。 Ullman, Hamrick and the rest of the team looked at data from 16 other studies on language. They found that people learn language using two memory systems: declarative and procedural. Memorizing vocabulary, for example, is a declarative memory process. But learning grammar is, mostly, a procedural memory process., such as, 39。 or things like that. And procedural motor memory is what we often call motor memory39。 However, Ullman explains that the two longterm memory systems can share tasks. And, he adds, the adult brain uses the systems to learn language a bit differently than a child39。 Adult language learners of a second language may use their declarative memory for using grammar patterns. They think about it purposefully. For a child, the grammar may e more naturally. They don39。 In addition to language learners, Ullman39。s memory systems? A.By studying language learning over years.C.By referring to data from other studies on language.(2)Which of the following is an example of motor memory? A.Remembering the grammar patternsC.Memorizing what you read.(3)What does the underlined word it refer to? A.An adult language learner.C.A second language.(4)What39。Ullman has advanced our language understanding.B.Learning memory is more active than motor memory.D.在最古老的大腦學(xué)習(xí)記憶區(qū)域,陳述性記憶和運(yùn)動(dòng)記憶分工合作,來(lái)完成語(yǔ)言學(xué)習(xí)。根據(jù)第五段中的“Ullman, Hamrick and the rest of the team looked at data from 16 other studies on language.”可知,該團(tuán)隊(duì)通過(guò)研究其他語(yǔ)言學(xué)習(xí)的成果,得出的結(jié)論,故選D。根據(jù)第六段中的And procedural motor memory is what we often call motor memory39。 (3)考查詞義猜測(cè)。所以it是指代using grammar patterns,故選C。根據(jù)第三段中的“Ullman says his research shows that the human brain does not have a special area or system for making language. Over time we have simply reused or coopted (指派) parts of our brain for language.”以及全文可知,人類的語(yǔ)言學(xué)習(xí)是由大腦前區(qū)完成的,該區(qū)域早于人類本身。 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解,詞義猜測(cè),推理判斷和主旨大意四個(gè)題型的考查,是一篇科研類閱讀,要求考生在捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上,進(jìn)一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系,進(jìn)行分析,推理,概括和歸納,從而選出正
