As Internet users becme mre dependent n the Internet t stre infrmatin, are peple remembering less? If yu knw yur cmputer will save infrmatin, why stre it in yur wn persnal memry,yur brain? Experts are wndering if the Internet is changing what we remember and hw.
In a recent study, Prfessr Betsy Sparrw cnducted sme experiments. She and her research team wanted t knw the Internet is changing memry. In the first experiment, they gave peple 40 unimprtant facts t type int a cmputer. The first grup f peple understd that the cmputer wuld save the infrmatin. The secnd grup understd that the cmputer wuld nt save it. Later, the secnd grup remembered the infrmatin better. Peple in the first grup knew they culd find the infrmatin again, s they did nt try t remember it.
In anther experiment, the researchers gave peple facts t remember, and tld them where t find the infrmatin n the Internet. The infrmatin was in a specific cmputer flder (文件夹). Surprisingly, peple later remembered the flder lcatin better than the facts. When peple use the Internet, they d nt remember the infrmatin. Rather, they remember hw t find it.

Experts are wndering if the Internet is changing what we remember and hw. (随着互联网用户越来越依赖互联网来存储信息，人们的记忆是不是越来越少了？如果你知道你的电脑会保存信息，为什么要把它存储在你自己的个人记忆中，你的大脑中呢？专家们想知道，互联网是否正在改变我们的记忆，以及如何改变。)”可知，文章以两个问题开头主要是为了介绍“互联网是否正在改变我们的记忆，以及如何改变”这个主题。故选A。

I lst my balance and fell in the water many times while practicing. Once I fell, I gave it anther try until I knew hw t handle the mst difficult part (让我们的脚牢牢地站在狭窄的竹竿上是关键，所以我们应该通过不断改变角度来对抗水流。在练习的过程中，我多次失去平衡掉进水里。一旦我跌倒了，我就再试一次，直到我知道如何处理最困难的部分)”可知，独竹漂的关键是能牢牢地站在狭窄的竹竿上，因为人很容易就会失去平衡掉下竹竿。由此可知，独竹漂的最大挑战是保持平衡。故选D项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中杨柳所说的话“I’m extremely prud t get respnses frm viewers that bamb drifting makes the line between what is pssible and impssible unclear. (我非常自豪地收到观众们的回应，他们认为独竹漂使可能与不可能之间的界限变得模糊)”可知，观众认为独竹漂模糊了可能和不可能之间的界限。由此推知，他们认为独竹漂是令人难以置信的。故选A项。

【分析】本文讲述的是“慢读的艺术”。 研究表明我们中的许多人不再专注于阅读文章，实际上，我们的网络习惯正在破坏我们处理和理解文本信息所需要的精神力量。大多数慢读者意识到，完全拒绝网络是非常不现实的，他们觉得暂时摆脱科技是解决问题的办法。
【16题详解】
根据下文：他们认为，我们中的许多人不再专注于阅读文章。此处的they应该是指代前文出现的事物，也就是C项中的the tw findings，“最近的研究项目有两个发现。”故选C。
【17题详解】

根据下文：一群极度渴望的学者希望我们在阅读或重读的时候要放慢速度。故可知现在一些活动提倡缓慢阅读。故选B。
【19题详解】
根据上文：大多数慢读者意识到，完全拒绝网络是非常不现实的。他们觉得暂时摆脱科技是解决问题的办法。由此推知，E项Sme f them have suggested turning their cmputers ff fr ne day a week.（他们中的一些人建议每周把电脑关掉一天。）与上文匹配。
【20题详解】
根据空格下句：你可以下载一个叫做Freedm的电脑程序，这样你就可以通过切断你的网络连接来阅读。由此可知此处的意思是：如果你只是偶尔想要读得慢一些，那么帮助就在手边。故选D。
【名师点睛】
做七选五时“尤其代词不可放”是说：在填空处的前后语境中出现的一些代词不可忽视。有这样一道题：”They can be rich resurces t imprve yur knwledge.”，该选项中凭空多出一个代词they，这说明什么问题？代词是起替代作用的，一定是前文出现的事物被they替代了，找到被替代的名词就可以了。往文中一找，前面的语境是“Vlunteering brings tgether all kinds f peple.所以they替代的就是前文的all kinds f peple短语。这样的现象在七选五中是很多见了，能帮助大家解决不少难题。本题第1小题，根据下文：他们认为，我们中的许多人不再专注于阅读文章。此处的they应该是指代前文出现的事物，也就是C项中的the tw findings，“最近的研究项目有两个发现。”故选C。
