More and more studentsare usinglaptops for note-taking because of sp
2、eed and legibility(清晰度). But the research has found laptop users are less able to remember and apply the concepts they have been taught. Researchers performed experiments that aimed to find out whether using a laptop increased the tendency to make notes “mindlessly” by taking down word for word what
3、 the professors said. In the first experiment, students were given either a laptop or pen and paper. They listened to the same lectures and were told to use their usual note-taking skills. Thirty minutes after the talk, they were examined on their ability to remember facts and on how well they under
4、stood concepts. The researchers found that laptop users took twice as many notes as those who wrote by hand. However, the typists performed worse at remembering and applying the concepts. Both groups scored similarly when it came to memorizing facts. The researchers report said, “While more notes ar
5、e beneficial, if the notes are taken mindlessly, as is more likely the case on a laptop, the benefit disappears.” In another experiment aimed at testing long-term memory, students took notes as before but were tested a week after the lecture. This time, the students who wrote notes by hand performed
6、 significantly better on the exam.These two experiments suggest that handwritten notes are not only better for immediate learning and understanding, but that they also lead to superior revision in the future.21.More and more students favor laptops for note-taking because they can .A.write more notes

9、t generation? UBC Professor Simard explains how trees are much more complex than most of us ever imagined. Although Charles Darwin thought that trees are competing for survival of the fittest, Simard shows just how wrong he was. In fact the opposite is true: trees survive through their cooperation a
10、nd support, passing around necessary nutrition “depending on who needs it”. Nitrogen(氮) and carbon are shared through miles of underground fungi(真菌) networks, making sure that all trees in the forest ecological system give and receive just the right amount to keep them all healthy. This hidden syste
11、m works in a very similar way to the networks of neurons(神经元) in our brains, and when one tree is destroyed, it affects all. Simard talks about “mother trees”, usually the largest and oldest plants on which all other trees depend. She explains how dying trees pass on the wealth to the next generatio
12、n, transporting important minerals to young trees so they may continue to grow. When humans cut down “mother trees” with no awareness of these highly complex “tree societies” or the networks on which they feed, we ate reducing the chances of survival for the entire forest. “We didnt take any notice
13、of it,” Simard says sadly. “Dying trees move nutrition into the young trees before dying, but we never give them chance.” If we could put across the message to the forestry industry, we could make a huge difference towards our environmental protection efforts for the future.25.The underlined sentenc
14、e “the opposite is true” in Paragraph 2 probably means that trees _.A.compete for survivalB.protect their own wealthC.depend on each otherD.provide support for dying trees26.“Mother trees” are extremely important because they _.A.look the largest in size in the forestB.pass on nutrition to young tre
15、esC.seem more likely to be cut down by humansD.know more about the complex tree societies27.The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to _.A.how tree societies workB.how trees grow oldC.how forestry industry developsD.how young trees survive28.What would be the best title for the passage?A.Old Trees Communicate Like HumansB.Young Trees Are In Need Of ProtectionC.Trees Are More Awesome(了不起) Than You ThinkD.Trees Bene
