Sometimes people recall past events differently from how they happened．Have you ever confused dates and events from your life, or people’s names? Don’t be too hard on yourself if this is the case; it happens to almost everyone．Every day, our brain processes an amazing amount of information．In fact, all our experiences are based on the way our brain interprets the information it receives from our senses．It is impossible to store all of this information, so some of it gets lost．The parts that remain make up our memories．All our thoughts and memories depend on the way our senses work, and we cannot always trust everything our senses tell us.

If you have ever tried to make your own short film on a digital camera, you will have noticed that the images you record are often blurry(模糊不清)．To stop the same thing from happening when we see things with our own eyes, our brain is always filling in the blanks．Before our eyes can even focus on an object, our brain has created its own picture of it so that we can move smoothly from looking at one thing to another without the world looking strange．If we are moving quickly or are not focusing properly, our brain may not correctly guess what is around us．

Memory is the way we store the information that our senses have experienced．As we have discussed above, our senses do not always see things accurately, so our memory is just how we store our interpretations of these experiences．When our brain takes in new experiences, it uses the information we retrieve from our memory as a reference．This means that we often do not remember the details of things but just the important parts．When we look at something, we often do not really look closely at it, but we merely look at the different hints that help us indentify it．

This also happens with our hearing and speaking．It is natural for students of English to confuse the word “kitchen”, with the familiar word “chicken”．As the sounds are similar, the mind mistakenly identifies the new word with the one that is familiar．This is perhaps the most common reason why people make mistakes when they learn a new language．

72．Sometimes things people remember are quite different from how they really happened because ______.

　　　 A．not all people are smart enough　　　　　　 B．the main part of the information gets lost

　　　 C．people are too strict with themselves　 　 D．information was processed incompletely

73．Taking the short film on a digital camera for an example, the author means _____.

　　　 A．images recorded by cameras could not be accurate

　　　 B．brain may form an imagery picture without reference

　　　 C．blurry pictures are caused by too fast camera movements

　　　 D．the process of vision is an interpretive construct by the brain

74．The underlined word “retrieve” in Paragraph 3 probably means ______．

　　　 A．recall　 　　　　　　　 B．change　　　　　 C．borrow 　　　　　　 D．differ

75．Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE in terms of memory?

　　　 A．Memory is exactly what senses have experienced.

　　　 B．Memories are made up of the information remaining in minds．

　　　 C．Memory is the way to store information experienced by senses.

　　　 D．Memories sometimes can be obstacles to learning something new．

Section C

Directions: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from the list A - F for each paragraph．There is one extra heading which you do not need.

76．

Have you ever wondered what it might be like to live under the sea? Imagine the feeling of freedom you would have swimming through the clear, blue water deep beneath the waves, admiring the different types of corals, unusual plants and the creatures that call the sea bed home．Passing turtles are swimming above you, while bright and colorful groups of fish are travelling alongside you through the depths．All of this is possible on one of our scuba(水中呼吸器)-diving holidays!

　 77．

International Diving Tours can prepare you for the experience of a lifetime．On our scuba-diving holidays, you will have the opportunity to swim in some of the most beautiful locations in the world, where you can explore underwater caves and coral reefs, and witness some of the strangest and most wonderful creatures on the planet．Not only will you have one of the most exciting times of your life, but you will also come back from your trip feeling calm and relaxed．

　 78．

We offer several different holiday options for you to choose from．Our sales people can plan and organize the best trip for you, all for the best price! Options include the chance to explore some of the most famous ancient shipwrecks hidden beneath the ocean, or, if you prefer the natural world, we also offer tours of the world-famous Great Barrier Reef in Australia．We even offer the chance to swim with dolphins or venture into a shark cage, where behind the safety of a metal barrier you can watch these fierce beasts go about their daily life．

　 79．

All the necessary equipment for your underwater adventure is provided, from wetsuits designed to fit all body shapes, to the latest scuba masks to help you see when you are exploring the world beneath the sea．For longer dives, we provide tanks of oxygen that can let you dive for up to four hours．All of our equipment is checked regularly to ensure that you remain safe at all times.

　 80．

Our instructors are among the best in the world．They will show you how to swim in your scuba equipment and how to communicate with hand signals under water, which is vital for deep-sea diving．They will also make sure you understand how to return to the surface safely, since rising too quickly can cause a number of health problems．Most importantly, however, they will make sure you have fun.

Section D

Directions: Read the passage carefully．Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.

In today’s world, the most successful companies are the ones who understand how important it is to make contacts around the world．However, doing business in different countries is very rarely simple．It is important to be aware of the local customs and traditions of the people you are dealing with, which is the best way to impress your hosts．

One example that comes to mind is of a German company that recently tried to gain a new contract in South Korea．The German visitors arrived at the Korean company’s office early in the morning and spent the whole day in long meetings．By the evening, the Germans were so tired that they politely declined the Korean’s invitation to go out for dinner and drinks, since they wanted to return to their hotel and get some rest．The Germans did not understand that in South Korea business talks often continue into the evening．The Germans only came to realize that they offended their hosts after they had lost the contract．　

In Europe or the USA, business is rarely discussed into the evening．However, it is important to be on time for a meeting．If you are late, your hosts may think you do not care．In fact, it is better to arrive at least ten minutes before the meeting starts．This way, you can show how keen you are to do business with them, and you will also have time to talk with your hosts before you sit down to discuss business．

However, in many countries meetings may not start on time．There are a number of reasons for this, such as transport difficulties due to poor roads, unusual weather and the cost of cars．Sometimes the time of day is also important．In South America and many countries in southern Europe, people have a short sleep for a couple of hours after lunch．Therefore, if you try to arrange a meeting for the early afternoon, you may find that not many people will attend, or that you hosts will be in a bad mood.

　(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TWELVE WORDS.)
