Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.AOne of my best friends flew down from Alaska to celebrate her 40th birthday with me. We explored the countryside with no real agenda or constraint. The grand finale (压轴戏) was a beautiful outdoor dinner filled with memorable conversation and laughter. We headed out on the one-and-a-half-hour mountain pass drive in the pitch dark, still engaged in deep conversation.About 45 miles from home, I noticed the low fuel light was on, and I looked on my car’s computer to see that we had one mile until we were out of fuel. Oh, no! How could I have forgotten to check before hea ding out of the town? I didn’t want to alarm my friend, and didn’t interrupt her story. I started praying and told myself to keep calm.Running out of fuel on this route would have been truly catastrophic at 10:30 p.m. It is incredibly dark and rugged（崎岖的）, and there’s not a lot of traffic. There are no towns, few people, and definitely no petrol stations. My mind raced as I considered the tragic possibilities.I finally calmly told my friend about our situation. She started strategizing about what we would do and how we could call my husband, Steve, but I didn’t want him to have to get our three children out of bed. There was the tow truck option, but we would have to be on the side of the road in the middle of the wilderness for at least 45 minutes! All of the options were truly terrible.She was nervous, and all I could do was constantly tell her I was certain we would make it. Sure enough, we did. We literally made it over 40 miles with no fuel, and I kno w that my car’s fuel measurement system is pretty accurate. Now, there is the logical part of my brain, trying to make excuses for the situation and the car and every other possible option. But inside, I heard the truth: we experienced a miracle.56.

But our obsession with recording every detail of our happiest moments could be damaging our ability to remember them, according to a new research. A study has shown that taking pictures rather than concentrating fully on the events in front of us prevents memories taking hold.Dr. Linda Henkel, from Fairfield University, Connecticut, describe d it as the “photo-taking impairment effect”. She said, “People often pull out their cameras almost mindlessly to capture a moment, to the point where they are missing what is happening right in front of them. When people rely on technology to remember for them — counting on the camera to record the event and thus not needing to attend to it fully themselves — it can have a negative impact on how well they remember their experiences.”Dr. Henkel and her team carried out an experiment in a museum to learn if taking pictures of the exhibits was hindering the ability of visitors to remember what they had seen.A group of university students were led on a tour at the Bellarmine Museum of Art at Fairfield University and were asked to either photograph or try and remember objects on display. The next day their memory was tested. The results showed that people were less accurate in recognizing the objects they had photographed than those they had only looked at. It was found that their memory for the details of the objects they had photographed was poorer.Henkel’s lab is currently investigating whether the content of a photo, such as whether you are in it, affects memory. She is also researching whether actively choosing what to photograph might influence what we remember.Previous research suggests that reviewing photos we have taken does help us remember objects, but only if we take the time.“Research has suggested that the sheer volume and lack of organization of digital photos forpersonal memories discourages many people from accessing and recalling them. In order to remember, we have to access and interact with the photos, rather than just collect them,” said Dr. Henkel.66. What does the word, “them”, in the first paragraph, refer to?A. Gifts at a birthday.B. People who go to parties.C. Photos taken at a wedding.D. Details of the happiest moments.67. What is the “photo-taking impairment effect”?A. Some unhappy events may impair the effects of photos.B. Taking photographs of ob jects ruins one’s memory of them.C. The effects of photos are strongly affected by bad cameras.D. Memories last forever when people take the photos they like most.68. What can we learn about Dr. Linda Henkel’s study?A. A group of high school students were involved.B. The memory of participants was tested the following week.C. People who just looked at the objects remembered fewer details.D. People who photographed objects were worse at recognizing them.69. With which of the following may Dr. Linda Henkel agree?A. Reviewing photos improves memories of objects.B. Focusing on people at events is the best way to remember.C. Relying on technology to remember affects the memory.D. Counting on cameras to record events is always reliable.70.

But the real improvement of China-Japan relations depends on the implementation (贯彻、落实) of the consensus, he said."What the three countries should consider now is how to ensure that the three-way cooperation will not be interrupted again and how to guarantee the healthy and smooth development of the trilateral cooperation," Wang said.As neighbors and major economies, China, South Korea and Japan should join hands to contribute to the economic development of the region and the world at large, the Chinese foreign minister said.But in recent years, bilateral relations among the three countries have met with difficulties due to the perception of history which has troubled the three-way cooperation and gone against the common interests of the three nations and the expectations of the international community, Wang said.81.According to Wang Yi, to ensure the ties between China and Japan to improve smoothly, whatshould Japan do?
