17、trange flying objects have been seen high up in the sky. People call these strange objects Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOS). These UFOs caused a lot of interest. Some of the reports about them are difficult to believe. Some have been explained in scientific ways. Others have never been explained.

18、Here is an account of UFOs from a report. Dennis Burdens, who wrote an article, tells us that he once saw a UFO himself. He was having dinner one night with a friend near Tripoli, Libya, and after dinner the two men walked across a yard to his room to look at some papers. Burdens noticed that the mo

19、on looked strange that night. “It wasnt the moon”, was the reply. They watched the light and saw that it was moving. It seemed to be an object rather like a big plate. In some ways it looked like smoke with a light on it, but it wasnt smoke because it didnt change its shape. It was moving in a regul

20、ar way. That is to say, it didnt go suddenly faster or more slowly, and it didnt go higher or lower. So the two men decided that there must be men in it. After that, Burdens said that he felt eyes looking at him. He was being watched in the darkness. When it was nearer, they noticed that the bottom

21、parts were brighter than the top. The bottom was yellow and the top red. Then the object suddenly turned away and left Libya, moving very fast. On a later day Burdens talked to other people about it, and he found some who had seen it. They all described it in the same way. Could they all be mistaken

22、? 56. UFOs are _. A . flying high up in the sky B. strange flying objects C. difficult to believe D. very interested 57. The UFO moved _. A. regularly B. in a changeable way C. slowly D. fast 58.

23、 by Burdens and his friend B. brighter in the darkness C. by several people D. to have a yellow bottom and a red top in the same way B We often hear people say, “I have a good memory for things like that” or “I can remember names”. But do you know memory is the single most important thing and it has

24、 played a very important part? For early men, there were dangerous all around them-bad weather, wild animals. The keys to keep on living lay in mans ability to remember these dangers and the ways he had dealt with them in the past. In order for memories to be stored, the human brain became more comp

25、lex. And as man learned how to deal with them, he became civilized (文明).Surprisingly, scientists today understand little about memory and how it works. They have not yet found a way to open up the brain and observe its function without destroying it. Perhaps there are two types of memory: short-term

26、 and long-term. Short-term refers to those facts that stay with us for a few seconds to a few hours. For instance, when you stay at a hotel, you remember the room number and forget as soon as you leave. Long-term memory, on the other hand, means you remember things for a long period of time. If you

27、spend your honeymoon in a particular hotel, its likely that youll remember your stay quite clearly. Scientists also believe that a short-term memory can become a long-term memory through consolidation(巩固). A lot of chemical and physical changes take place in the part of the brain. Although the human

28、 brain weighs three pounds, it contains 30 billion nerve cells(神经细胞) acting like a computer. When those changes strengthen the links(联系) in certain nerve cells, a though becomes a part of the long-term memory. 60.

A. the weight of brain B. two types of memory C. 30 billion nerve cells D. chemical and physical changes C Im writing this l
