一、阅读原文

PASSAGE · 先通读全文，再逐空回看前后句

P1Do computers stop us from learning and developing? Do they make us stupid? 26 The researchers wanted to find out if computers have changed how we remember information.

P227 They found that our thinking has changed because of the internet. In the past, when people were asked difficult questions, they tried to find the answers by themselves. Now, it seems that computers aren't making us stupid, but they're making us lazy! 28 For example, instead of thinking about the question, they think about what to type in a search engine.

P3Second, scientists found that computers have changed what kind of information we remember. 29 On one hand, people now forget facts more easily. On the other hand, they remember better where to find those facts.

P4Because of modern technology, people now first think about how to find answers rather than remembering the answers themselves. Scientists believe that we spend more time remembering where to find information than trying to remember the information itself. 30

二、六个选项

OPTIONS · 一句放一行，先读选项划关键词

Different people have different ideas.

不同的人有不同的想法。——多余项

文章用"研究发现"的客观语气，没有列出不同人的不同观点，与任何空的上下文都连不上。

多余项

This change can be both good and bad.

这种变化既有好也有坏。——填入 29

2 空后"On one hand... On the other hand..."正是好坏两方面的对比，总起句选 B。

4 空 · 总起对比

People don't try to answer questions by themselves any more.

人们不再自己尝试回答问题了。——填入 28

28 空后 For example 举例"不再思考问题，而是想搜什么"，对应 C 的"不再自己回答"。

3 空 · 举例衔接

A recent study explored how computers affect our memory.

最近一项研究探讨了电脑如何影响我们的记忆。——填入 26

26 空后"The researchers wanted to find out..."直接承接 D 的"一项研究探索"。

1 空 · 研究引入

Let's use technology as a tool, not a replacement for thinking.

让我们把科技当工具，而不是代替思考。——填入 30

30 空在段尾总结，E 是作者呼吁：用科技但不放弃独立思考。

5 空 · 总结呼吁

First, the scientists studied what happens when people are asked difficult questions.

首先，科学家研究了当人们被问到难题时会发生什么。——填入 27

27 空在段首，后文讲"过去自己找答案 vs 现在变懒"，正是 First 的研究内容。

2 空 · 段首总起

阅读还原解题策略

STRATEGY

先做细节题（28/29）

28 空后 For example 举例；29 空后 On one hand... On the other hand... 对比结构明显。

再做段首挖空（27）

27 空在段首，后文讲研究发现，选 First 开头的总起句。

最后做段首/段尾（26/30）

26 空承接研究引入；30 空是总结呼吁句。

验证多余项

A"不同人有不同想法"与文章客观研究语气不符，为多余项。
