Question

Grown-ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced still swim as well as ever ever since. A man when he gets back who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins "Twinkle, twinkle, little star"。remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.
One explanation is the law of over learning , which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, additional learning trials(嘗試)increase the length of time we will remember it.
In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as "Twinkle, twinkle, little star" and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but overleam.
The multinlicatinn tables(乘法口訣表)are an excention to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.
The law of overleaming explains why cramming(突擊學(xué)習(xí))for an examination. though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject  well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned.A little overlearning. on the other hand, is really necessary for one's future development.

Answer 1

小題1:A
小題2:D
小題3:A
小題4:B

試題分析:本篇短文講述什么是超量學(xué)習(xí)及超量學(xué)習(xí)（學(xué)習(xí)到熟記的地步）的法則。超量學(xué)習(xí)就是我們?cè)��?jīng)學(xué)習(xí)的一些東西，額外學(xué)習(xí)如何增加記憶的時(shí)間。額外學(xué)習(xí)法則表現(xiàn)在考試前的突擊學(xué)習(xí)。
小題1:段落大意題。第一段主要講述大人們?cè)趦簳r(shí)學(xué)會(huì)的東西，即使多年不復(fù)習(xí)還是可以記得很清楚。故選A，人們?cè)趦簳r(shí)學(xué)習(xí)的知識(shí)記得很好。
小題2:推理判斷題。作者在解釋超量學(xué)習(xí)法則的時(shí)候，運(yùn)用了乘法口訣和考試前突擊學(xué)習(xí)的例子。故選D，舉例。
小題3:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.“因?yàn)檫@是我們兒時(shí)超量學(xué)習(xí)的另一個(gè)結(jié)果。”故選A，超量學(xué)習(xí)的而結(jié)果。
小題4:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。最后一段解釋考試之前的突擊學(xué)習(xí)。By cramming, a student may learn the subject  well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned.“通過突擊學(xué)習(xí)，學(xué)生可以通過考試，但是很快就會(huì)忘記所學(xué)。”這種方式僅適用于考前，故選B，突擊學(xué)習(xí)在限定的方式下有用。
