Many studies have shown the learning-by-teaching effect. Students who spend time teaching what they've 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 did a study to test their idea that teaching improves one's learning because it forces the teacher to retrieve (检索) what they've learned, which leads to deeper and longer-lasting acquisition(获得) of that information than spending more time re-studying.
They asked 124 students to spend ten minutes studying a text. 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 group the students spent five minutes giving a lesson on the study material without notes. The other groups either spent the same time answering the questions, teaching with a script (讲稿) or writing down all they could remember from the text—a form of recalling practice.A week later, all the students took a surprise test of their knowledge and understanding of the text.
The important finding is that the teaching-without-notes group and the recalling-practice group performed better than the group that answered the questions and the group that taught with a script. The researchers said the result shows that the benefits of the learning-by-teaching method are caused by recalling practice; that is, the learning-by-teaching method works only when the teaching includes recalling 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 others, rather than depend on notes during the presentation process.
( ) 5. What is the purpose of the study that the researchers did
A. To test the best way of teaching.
B. To compare different methods of learning.
C. To find out the reason why people like teaching.
D. To check the effects of the learning-by-teaching method.
( ) 6. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A. Why the study started. B. Who took part in the study.
C. How the study was performed. D. What conclusion the researchers made.
( ) 7. The result of the surprise test a week later according to the passage may be .

( ) 8. Which of the following ways may be praised by the author
A. Memory Game. B. Note-taking.

Do you often compare yourself with other people Whether it's the number of goals you' ve scored at football or how many books you've read, it's easy to compare yourself with someone else. It's a natural behavior that helps humans learn from each other, live happily together and achieve more. However, it's not always helpful and you can find yourself fall in a comparison trap. This is when you always measure yourself against others and base your feelings on how well they seem to be doing.
Comparison can make us feel good and bad about ourselves. “Comparing up” means seeing someone is better than you and using that to encourage yourself to aim higher and try harder. However, sometimes it can make you feel rubbish about yourself and undermine your confidence. “Comparing down” is when you see someone who seems like they' re not doing as well as you. This might make you feel you' re doing well, but it can also stop you wanting to improve.
How do you escape comparison trap If your feelings depend on what other people are doing, always stay with cheerleaders. Notice how people make you feel and spend time with friends who celebrate your strengths rather than compare themselves with you. If you follow social media accounts that make you feel you are failing in any way, unfollow them. Find ones that make you laugh or show you lovely places instead. Finally, pay attention to your own achievements and how you can improve. The best person you can compete with is yourself.
Let's make positive, healthy comparisons. Instead of trying to be the best aim to be your best. This means you value your own achievements and not someone else's. Celebrate progress instead of the final result. It doesn't matter if someone is better or faster than you, it's how hard you try that's important. Set some goals and pay attention to your progress. Instead of saying“I can't do it”, say“I can't do it yet”.
( ) 9. What is the purpose of comparing yourself with others according to the text
A. To knock your confidence. B. To learn from each other and achieve more.
C. To make others feel bad about themselves. D. To stop you wanting to move.
( ) 10. “ ” is close to the underlined word “undermine”.
A. Increase B. Build C. Weaken D. Get
( ) 11. Paragraph 3 mainly tells us .
A. competing with yourself is not necessary
B. your feelings always depend on other people
C. we can follow the ways to escape comparison trap
D. friends can make you laugh and show you lovely places
( ) 12. Which can be a proper title for the text

The final step is to think about what happened when you tested the hypothesis and draw a conclusion. The conclusion will either clearly support the hypothesis or it will not. If the results support the hypothesis, a conclusion can be written and you can share it with the rest of the world. If it does not support the hypothesis, you may choose to change the hypothesis or write a new one based on what was learned during the experiment.

“LUCKY BOX” vending machines used to be common in the United States. These machines sold plastic eggs that contained mystery toys. When I was a kid, I could not stop putting coins into them. A picture on the front of the machine showed the different toys you might find in an egg— plastic“diamond rings”, plastic“mirrors”, and plastic“superheroes”. Naturally, I wanted a superhero. But no matter how many times I got a diamond ring or mirror that girls prefer, I would still try again to get the superhero.
You might think that I was just paying for the superhero. I was, however, also paying for the excitement of getting to see what was inside the egg. Who hasn't experienced this excitement at one time or another It's the excitement you feel when you turn over an old log to see what kinds of bugs are under it. It's the excitement you feel when you explore a room full of old things.
Have you ever held up a gift in a box to guess what's inside of it Some people will shake the box and measure it with hands, all to enjoy the fullest fun of the mystery.
But this desire to uncover mysteries can also make some games and websites dangerous. Many people spend too much time on their smartphones or on websites. One reason is that apps and websites are designed to keep us wondering what we will see when we scoll (滚动) a little further or press the button one more time.
Companies are trying to attract and keep our interest so that we can't help coming back for more “mysteries”. Over time, we will become less likely to be excited by the real mysteries in our everyday lives. It is important to work out when our curiosity is healthy and when it may be hurting us.
