25、Choose the best answer (根据以下内容,选择最恰当的答案。)
Students across China, studying in the fields of engineering, science and technology, are developing a lot of inventions that they hope will one day be marketable. Here are three examples from the minds of China's young inventors.
Foot-Controlled Mouse
This new kind of mouse is controlled by the feet instead of the hands, to help disable people when surfing the Internet.
The new invention is called a "surf mouse", and looks like a pair of blue slippers.(拖鞋) When users press the slippers with their forefeet, they are clicking the left mouse button; when people press with their heels, (脚后跟)they are clicking the right mouse; when they roll their feet over the slippers, they can view Web pages.
Dirty Water Filter(过滤器)
The "pump (泵) of life", a filter, can make dirty water drinkable. The pump is over 30 centimeters long and has a diameter of four centimeters. It has an in-pipe at the top and out-pipe at the end. There are two main parts: the drive zone to pump water and the material zone to eliminate harmful substances.
Rain, fish tank water and coalmine water can all be cleaned in the material zone. The invention could be used for many kinds of disaster relief.(救济) Pan told us that water was delivered by helicopters to Wenchuan. If they had sent water-purifying equipment instead, people could have had more water faster after the earthquake.
Transformer Vehicle (变压器多功能车)
The multi-functional vehicle is named Tranfus. By changing the size of tyres (轮胎)and the structure of a car, it can become a motorbike or a luggage carrier.(行李架) The name Tranfus is a contraction of "transforming for us." Traffic jams can make a driver go crazy. The Tranfus can change into luggage carrier, and users could walk with it. When started, the roof transforms, turning into a motorbike. But its inventor doesn't think Tranfus will be on the market soon as some auto companies like it, but none are willing to invest.(投资)

27、Know when to skim. Skimming can be used to gain a shallow (浅层的) understanding of a text. It can be used to scan a newspaper for interesting material or to get the important concepts out of a textbook in preparation for a test. It’s not a good choice for thorough reading.
Read titles and section headings. Begin by only reading the chapter titles and any subheadings at the start of large sections. Read the headlines of each newspaper article or the table of contents in a magazine.
Read the beginning and end of a section. Textbooks usually have introductions and summaries of each chapter. For other texts, just read the first and last paragraph of a chapter or an article.
You can read quickly if you’re familiar with the subject, but don’t try to speed read as fast as possible. You’re saving time by skipping most of the section, but you do need to understand what you’re reading.
Circle important words throughout the text. If you still wish to learn more, brush your eyes rapidly across the page rather than reading normally. As you know the main idea of the section, you can pick out key words that mark important areas. Stop and circle the following words:
Words that are repeated several times
The main ideas—often including words from the title or section header
Proper nouns
Italics, bold text, or underline
Words you don’t recognize
Pay attention to pictures and diagrams ( 图表). These often present a lot a information without much reading required. Take a minute or two to make sure you fully understand each diagram.
Read the first sentence of each paragraph, if unsure. If you are uncertain about the subject, read the start of each paragraph. The first one or two sentences will teach you the main points.
Study using your annotations ( 注解). Go back and look over the words you’ve circled. Can you “read” these and get a general sense of what the text is about? If you don’t understand a certain word, try reading a few sentences around that word to remind yourself of the topic.
【1】Where can you find this article?
A.In the newspaper.
B.In a magazine.
C.In a language book.
D.In a diary.
【2】Which of the following is NOT advised by the writer of the article?
A.Skimming isn’t suitable for all types of reading.
B.You can read as quickly as you want if you know how to skim.
C.Spend some minutes reading the pictures and diagrams in the text.
D.If you can not remember the subject you are reading, try to read the start of each paragraph.
【3】When you read the part of one article below, which word or phrase should be possibly circled?
Whenever you meet any difficulty in life, please stick to your dream. Never give up. Most people may find it hard to stick to their dream in the past once they are caught in trouble. However, they always end up regretting (后悔) the decisions they have made after they walk out of the difficulty and hope they could stick to the dream. |
A.always
B.give up
C.stick to
D.hard
【4】What should be used as the best title for the article?
A.How to learn speed reading
B.Skim the text
C.Skimming and scanning, two powerful reading strategies
D.Read the start and the end of the article
