As Internet users become more dependent ono the Internet to store information, are people remembering 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 wanted to know how 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 understand that the computer would save the information. The second group understood that the computer would not save it. Later, the second 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 computer. The information was in a specific computer folder. 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 not 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 doesn’t mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.
1. The passage begins with two question to _________.
A. introduce the main topic
B. show the author’s attitude
C. describe how to use the Internet
D. explain how to store information
【答案】A。通读文段的第一、二段可知,作者在第一段提出的两个问题就是下文的实验所要研究的,因此这两个问题的开头就是为了引出文章的主题,文段A项符合。B项是表达作者的态度。C项是解释如何使用网络。D项解释如何存储信息。因此答案选A项。
2. What can we learn about the first experiment?
A. The Sparrow’s team typed the information into a computer
B. The two groups remembered the information equally well.
C. The first group did not try to remember the information
D. The second group did not understand the information
【答案】C。根据第二段最后一句“People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it”可知,第一组的人因为知道电脑里存储了这些信息,所以他们不努力记住这些信息,C项符合。A项指的是这个团队就是将信息输入进电脑。B项指的是两组都可以很好的记住信息。D项第二组不理解信息。因此答案选C项。
3. In transactive memory, people ________.
A. keep the information in mind
B. change the quantity of information
C. organize information like a computer
D. remember how to find the information
【答案】D。根据第三段最后两句“Rather,they remember how to find it. This is called‘transactive memory’”。可知,通过交互记忆,人们记得如何找到信息。这样同义替换到D项。A项人们要在头脑中记住信息。B项指的是改变信息的数量。C项指像电脑一样组织信息。因此答案选D项。
4. What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow’s research?
A. We are using memory differently
B. We are becoming more intelligent
C. We have poorer memories than before
D. We need a better way to access information
【答案】根据文章最后一句中“there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing”可知,网络使人们的记忆方式发生了改变,即与以往的记忆方式有所不同,A项符合。B项指的是我们会变得更加聪明。C项指的是我们比起以前记忆力更差了。D项我们知道我们需要更好的方式来处理信息。
