B.Natural.C.Confident. D.Frightened.答案A[細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中“AsachildIwasverynervoustobeinfrontofotherguys，becauseIwasdifferent”可知，由于David天生缺少半只胳臂，所以作為孩子時(shí)，感覺自己與別人不同，他很緊張。]5.WhatwasDavid’sattitudetohisfirstprostheticarm?A.Curious.

B.Flexible.C.Typing. D.Handwriting.答案D[詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)畫線單詞下一句“Studentswiththehandwrittennoteswerealsoableto...andweremoreopentounderstandingnewideas.”可知，手寫筆記的學(xué)生對(duì)整體概念的記憶和理解能力比較強(qiáng)。所以畫線單詞指的是“手寫筆記”。]10.Whatcontributestobetterlearninginnote－taking?A.Usingtheexactwords.B.Introducingmoderntools.C.Writingasquicklyaspossible.D.Rephrasingthelearningmaterial.答案D[細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第四段的“Butnotetakersusingpenandpaper...intheirownwords.”可知，用筆和紙記筆記的人之所以學(xué)習(xí)更好，是因?yàn)檫@些人能更好地消化材料，會(huì)用自己的話重新表達(dá)。]11.Whatwouldbethebesttitleforthetext?A.TypingmattersinawayB.ApenisbetterthanakeyboardC.HandwritingbuildsyourbrainpowerD.Handwritingortypingisaquestion答案C[標(biāo)題歸納題。根據(jù)文章第一段的“Butwhatarewegivingupashandwritinglosesitssignificance？”可知，書寫的放棄使得我們也失去了腦力。再根據(jù)最后一段的“Computersaren’tgoingawaysoon...hadmoreenhancedandadult－likebrainactivity.”可以判斷，練習(xí)書寫可以鍛煉一個(gè)人的腦力。所以“Handwritingbuildsyourbrainpower”作為文章標(biāo)題最為合適。]Ⅱ.七選五(2024·邯鄲高三聯(lián)考)Althoughstayingfocusedcanbeachallengeinthisworld，itisstillpossible.Herearesometipstohelpyoufocusonthejobathandandbecomecreative.Engageinpositivedaydreaming.Thisinvolvesfirstturningyourattentioninward.Trytravelingwithyourmindtosomeplaceenjoyable.1.Pairyourdaydreamingwithsomeformoflow－keyactivitysuchaswalkingandgardening.Letyourmindwanderforabout20minutesthiswayandwatchwhathappens.Doingthisseveraltimesadaycanofferyourmindafreshapproachtothejobathand.2.Areyouapersonwhoissharp－mindedinthemorning?Orisanightowlmoreofyourstyle?Eitherway，itdoesn’tmatteraslongasyouscheduleyourmostimportantprojectsduringyourbrain’speriodsofbestperformance.3.Instead，reservethebesttimeforthebigstuff.Tryyourhobbies.4.Itisalsoagoodwaytoinviteinnovationinwaysthatfocusingdoesn’t.Inmanycases，itcanevenhelpyoucomeupwithsolutionstoproblemsyou’refacingatworkorhome.Turnofftextmessagingandsocialmedia.Prettybasic?Sure，butvital.Itallowsusadeepdiveintofocus.Itletsourbrainsgetachancetocompletefullsentencesofthought.Ithelpsustoresetandth
