40、resentC There are two kinds of memory: short-term and long-term. Information in long-term memory can be remembered at a later time when it is needed. The information may be kept for days or weeks. However, information in short-term memory is kept for only a few seconds, usually by repeating the info
41、rmation over and over. The following experiment shows how short-term memory has been studied.Henning studied how students who are learning English as a second language remember vocabulary. The subjects in his experiment were 75 college students. They represented all levels of ability in English: beg
42、inning, intermediate (中等), and native speaking students.To begin, the subjects listened to a recording of a native speaker reading a paragraph in English.

Although we may take friendship for granted, we often dont clearly understand how to make friends. While we get on well with a number of people, we are usually friends with only a very few -
56、 for example, the average among students is about 6 per person. In all the cases of friendly relationships, two people like one another and enjoy being together, but beyond that, the degree of intimacy between them and the reasons for their shared interests very greatly. As we get to know people, we
57、 take into account things like age, race, economic condition, social position, and intelligence. Although these factors are not of great importance, it is more difficult to get on with people when there is a marked difference in age and background.Some friendly relationships can be kept on argument
58、and discussion, but it is usual for close friends to have similar ideas and beliefs, the same opinions and interests-they often talk about “being on the same wavelength. It generally takes time to reach this point. And the more intimately involved people become, the more they depend on one another.
59、People who want to be friends have to put up with annoying habits and to stand differences.In contrast with marriages, there are no friendship ceremonies to strengthen the association between two people. But the supporting and understanding of each other that results from shared experiences and emot
60、ions do seem to create a powerful bond, which can overcome differences in background, and break down barriers of age, class and race.(普通中学学生做)72. The best title should be .A. A lot of friends. B.
