It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them. Sometimes people did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country, but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war. Sometimes there was never written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write. For example, we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them. But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa, because they had not learned to write.
Sometimes, of course, even if the people can not write, they may know something of the past. For most people can tell proudly what their fathers did in the past. This we may call "remembered history". Some of it has now been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history is, because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing. But where there are no written re- cords, such spoken stories are often very helpful.
Which of the following ideas is not mentioned in the passage?
A．Remembered history, compared with written history, is less reliable.
B．Written records of the past play a most important role in our learning of the human history.
C．A written account of our daily. activities helps us to be able to answer any questions.
D．Where there are no written records, there is no history.
The Greeks discovered that human memory is(5)an associative process—that it works by linking things together. For example, think of an apple. The(6)your brain registers the word "apple", it(7)the shape, colour, taste, smell and(8)of that fruit. All these things are associated in your memory with the word "apple".
(9). An example could be when you think about a lecture you have had. This could trigger a memory about what you were talking about through that lecture, which can then trigger another memory.
(10). An example given on a website I was looking at follows: Do you remember the shape of Austria, Canada, Belgium or Germany? Probably not. What about Italy, though?(11)You made an association with something already known, the shape of a boot, and Italy's shape could not be forgotten once you had made the association.
A．machines
B．elements
C．systems
D．devices

听力原文： Little by little, Americans are turning to solar power, tapping the strength of the sun for energy.
Solar energy is only in its infancy, however, sunlight has already been used for heating or cooling homes and office buildings in the sunny south. Experts say all signs point to the birth of the solar energy industry. Right now, an increasing number of companies are selling solar collector panels to heat and cool homes or to heat water. The glass and metal panels cost from ＄ 100 to more than ＄ 500 each, and the three or four bedroom homes usually require a dozen or more. They look like sandwiches, or very narrow flower boxes, 3 to 6 feet in width, 8 to 10 feet long, and 4 to 8 inches thick. They are usually placed in rooftops. Nobody knows how many have been sold, and in addition, many people have built their own units. It has been estimated that solar power equipment will be a ＄ 1.3 billion industry by 1995, and more a million homes will use sunlight for heat, air conditioning or to generate electricity, both in the cities and in countryside.

M: I was born in Chicago, but I didn't live there any more. I was raised in Washington, grew up there until I went to college in New York and then Harvard.
W: Looking back. How did you think your parents shaped your character？
M: Well, it's hard to estimate entirely. I was quite fond of my parents and considered them very good people. My mother was a kind of very feminist and a well-known Jewish poet. She became internationally known. My father was a lawyer. And though it's hard to say how much they influenced me, I liked them, I respected them and I'm sure I was influenced to some degree by them.
W: You were educated in the public schools？
M; We moved almost every year, so I went to a different public school each year.
W: So you would have been in high school and what years... approximately？
M: Oh, I was in high school when... 26 or 27？ I forgot. I graduated from high school in 32.
W; What did you study in university？
M: Well, that's a difficult question. I started out thinking I'd be an economist, and then I got disappointed with that. And after an odd experience in my junior year, I decided that I'd go out and study agriculture or management, but I enrolled in both for a whole year and tried to learn the required courses. I lasted a year, and then I came back to the main campus and finished up as an economics major specializing in labor economics.
W: Did you go right graduate school or join the army after you graduated from the university？
M: Well, I went to Harvard as a graduate student in philosophy in 1936, and stayed there until the war broke out. I was drafted after I took my PhD exams in the early part of 1941. So I went into the army before Pearl Harbor.
