27、ng-by-teaching effect. Students who spend time teaching what theyve learned show better understanding and ability to remember knowledge than students who simply spend the same time re-studying. But why does teaching help? Researchers led by Aloysius Wei Lun Koh did a study to test their idea that te
28、aching improves the teachers learning because it forces the teacher to retrieve(检索)what theyve learned. In other words, they believe that bringing to mind what weve learned leads to deeper and longer-lasting acquisition(获得)of that information than spending more time re-studying. The researchers aske
29、d 124 students to spend ten minutes studying a text with numbers on a topic which is completely new to them. They told the students they could take notes while studying, but would teach the material afterwards without notes. After studying the text, the students were divided into four groups. In one
30、 group the students spent five minutes delivering a lesson on the study material without notes. The other groups either spent the same time completing arithmetic(算术)problems, teaching with a script(讲稿)or writing down all they could remember from the text-a form of retrieval practice. A week later, a
31、ll the students returned to the lab for a surprise test of their knowledge and understanding of the text. The important finding is that the teaching-without-notes group and the retrieval-practice group outperformed the group that completed arithmetic problems and the group that taught with a script.
32、 In fact,the performance of the teaching-without-notes group and the retrieval-practice group was comparable. The researchers said the result shows that the benefits of the learning-by-teaching method are caused by retrieval practice; that is, the learning-by-teaching method works only when the teac
33、hing involves retrieving the taught materials. The new findings have a practical suggestion for how the learning-by-teaching method is used in education. In order to make sure that students learn and remember an educational material, they should internalize(内化)the material before presenting it to ot
34、hers, rather than depend on notes during the presentation process. 27. Why did the researchers do the study? A. To compare different methods of learning. B. To test whether teaching can improve learning. C. To find out the reason why people like teaching. D. To check the reason for learning-by-teach
35、ing effect. 28. Paragraph 3 is mainly about _. A. how long the study lasted B. who took part in the study C. what result the study showed D. how the study was performed 29. What can we learn from the study? A. Teaching with a script is the best way of learning. B. Teaching benefits learning because
36、of retrieval practice. C. Solving arithmetic problems is harder than doing other tasks. D. Presenting with notes can help students remember a material. D Technology has done our world wonders: from development in medicine travel, communication, to our day-to-day lives. It has undoubtedly changed the
37、 way our society works, and how we communicate with one another and ourselves. However, by completely welcoming technology as a part of everyday life, are we losing our ability to create? Technology presents a new platform for creativity to exist(存在)on. Through technology, ideas can be set free and
38、come to life in the physical world. We have the necessary tools for greater possibilities and new solutions. For example, businesses now have the opportunity to improve themselves more creatively through websites, film advertisements,social media or radio. However, when we look more closely, its eas
39、y to notice some disadvantages. For example, many of us depend so heavily on automated calculations(自动计算)nowadays, rather than taking the time to work it out for ourselves. Another obvious situation is that a lot of people are spending too much time on screens. As a result, they are reducing the opp
40、ortunities to come up with their own creations. Is there a way to find a balance between technology and human creativity? I think so. It is simply a matter of making sure that creativity is not deterred by technology. The first way is to reduce our usage of digital devices(数字设备)by setting limits on
41、when, where, and how long we use them,turning off the notifications(通知)on your phone, or putting your phone on “Do Not Disturb”. Once you become used to these, you will feel surprised how little you think about your phone. Another wonderful way is to take daily walks in the nature. It can help you r
42、eset, rebalance, and keep going. In the long run, a daily walk can not only influence our creativity and imagination but further our physical and mental(思想的)health. We can also develop our creativity by doing yoga, keeping a journal, or reading. The key to the survival(生存)of our creativity starts wi
43、th us. Will you put your phone away when spending time with friends? Will you try to find happiness and purpose outside of a screen? The actions you choose to take will help change the relationship between creativity and technology for the better. 30. Why does the writer talk about businesses in Par
