25.副词和介词短语作状语。lately最近;by the way顺便提一下,顺便问一下;by the time到……的时候;gradually逐渐地。从候温句子机构可以看出,该空应用一个可作连词引导时间状语从句的词只有by the time可用作连词,引导时间状语从句。句意是“到上中学的时候。”
26.动词词义辨析。receive收到;understand明白;enjoy喜欢;collect收集。从上文得知“随着孩子们长大,他们变得有自我意识了,我的大儿子告诉我他不再喜欢我每天写的纸条。”

These kinds of activities aren"t just good for your physical health. They improve your mental health, even your spiritual health. And they make vacations memorable and worthwhile. Here are some fresh ideas for active and healthy vacation.
Make the morning your activity time. At that time it is most likely that the weather will be friendlier, your energy level higher, and your schedule emptier than later in the day.
Have a walk at dawn or dusk. Such activity is called rejuvenation(恢复活力). Try to make this a daily routine of life away from home, and you will guarantee yourself both physical and spiritual youth.
Get into the water as much as you can. Don"t allow yourself to spend your entire time sitting in front of the water. Whether it is the ocean, a swimming pool, or a tree-lined lake, make sure you get into the water for swimming or games or even walking. Merely standing in waist-high water is a good workout, thanks to the action of the water. And you"ll feel so much more alive!
Choose a cruise for your trip. It"s amazing how active you can be being stuck on a boat in the middle of the Atlantic. Most cruise ships offer numerous options for seaworthy exercise. During your sea and land trips you can burn calories as you swim, hike, dive, and horseback ride.
Get out of the car every two hours. Many of us spend a large part of our vacations on the road, either getting to and from our destinations, or using the car for sightseeing. But no matter how beautiful the scenery is, great and memorable vacations don"t happen in a car seat. Don"t wait for tiredness or nature"s call to get you to pull over. Frequently get out and stretch, walk, picnic, shop, visit, and have fun. It"s important for your health and energy, and it makes traveling a lot more active and interesting.

Brad Williams’ excellent memory recall makes him a personified version(个人版)of Google. His wide memory allows him to recall almost any news event and anything he has experienced, including specific dates and even the weather. “I was sort of a human Google for my family. I’ve always been able to recall things,” the 51-yearold said on Good Morning America in his first television interview.
Williams’ type of detailed, complete memory is called hyperthymesia and few known cases exist. Brad’s brain scan are now being studied by scientists at the Center for Neurobiology(神经生物学)of Learning and Memory, at the University of California.
At first, the drive-time radio broadcaster didn’t think his ability to recall so much was anything special. Gradually, over the years, other people noticed how much he was able to remember in detail about events. Then in 2006, he read an article about a wman whom scietists called AJ, which prompted Williams to come forward. AJ is a writwer of a medical journal, and the only scientifically-documented case of superior memory.
“When I read about AJ, my immediate thought was : Oh my God. That’s Brad!” said williams’ brother, Eric Williams.
Eric Williams is eager to learn about the inner working of his brother’s mind. He is in the process of making documentary(纪录片)about Brad, appropriately titled: “Unforgettable.” In the film, which hasn’t been finished yet, Williams takes on a person who is Googling answers to 20 questions. He answers 18 of them correctly and is 11 minutes faster than the Google user.
“All of us have the ability to store this information, but the difference with Brad is that he can recall it,” Eric Williams said.
小题1:According to the passage, which of the following is true about Brad Williams?
A.He has worked for Google, so he recall any news events. |
B.He may be one of the rare cases of people with a superior memory. |
C.He is now the host of Good Morning America. |
D.He is working as a teacher in California. |
A.Because he was born with a rare ability. |
B.Because his work requires a good memory. |
C.Because he has to answer others’ questions. |
D.Because he was specially trained in his chilhood. |
A.helped | B.wanted | C.warned | D.encouraged |
A.The Ability to Store All Information |
B.A Documentary called Unforgettable |
C.“Google Man” Recalls Nearly Every Thing |
D.Brad Williams and Google User |
