Countries pass different laws because they often have different attitudes to certain crimes.
Punishments vary greatly too. Here are some facts about laws in some of the safest countries in the
world:
Did you know that in Singapore, it is 36 the law to sell or import chewing gum? This
is because gum can 37 pavements and cause problems with subway doors. You can get a
fine if you are caught breaking this rule!
In Finland, fines for some crimes 38 how much money you earn. If you are rich, you

Having a good memory is key to learning effectively. But if you’ve ever found it hard to
remember information even after reading your notes repeatedly, perhaps you’re not studying in the
best way.
While there are many 65 that can help you remember things better, the most effective ones
involve making meaningful connections between pieces of information. This idea is called the
Baker/baker paradox, and it was 66 in an experiment.
In the experiment, researchers divided people into two groups and showed them a photo of a
man’s face. One group was told the man’s name was Baker, while the other was told the man worked
as a baker. A few days later, the researchers asked both groups about the man’s identity.
The results were 67 . People remembered the man’s job more easily than his name,
even though both words were the same. Why did this happen? After all, the
word “baker” was the same for both people.
Here’s the 68 : when you hear that someone works as a baker,
your mind connects this fact to a network of meaningful ideas. You might
picture someone baking bread, wearing a tall white hat, or smelling of freshly
baked goods. These connections create a story in your brain, making the information easier to
recall.
69 , the name “Baker” doesn’t form the same kind of meaningful connections. It’s only
linked to the man’s face, which is a weak connection. If you forget the face, you may also forget the
name 70 .
The Baker/baker paradox shows that memory works best when new information is tied to
meaningful stories or images. So, if you want to remember something better, try linking it to a story
or something familiar. This simple trick can make all the difference.
( ) 65. A. programs B. services C. methods D. products
( ) 66. A. denied B. mentioned C. proved D. organized
( ) 67. A. important B. surprising C. confusing D. disappointing
( ) 68. A. picture B. reason C. solution D. conclusion
( ) 69. A. What’s more B. As a result C. In fact D. On the other hand
( ) 70. A. completely B. suddenly C. immediately D. regretfully

Have we lost the ability to focus on a single task? Daniel Goleman thinks so. Here, the
bestselling science writer shares e 71 that show how technology takes over our attention
and weakens real-life connections.
On a ferry to a holiday island, a little girl was nervous and hugged her mother tightly. The
mother, however, didn’t seem to n 72 ; she was focused on her tablet the whole time.
Something similar happened a few minutes later in a shared taxi van with nine students going on a
weekend trip. As soon as they sat down, everyone began checking their phones or tablets. There was
little conversation, just silence.
These moments show how devices like mobile phones and tablets take our attention away from
the people around us. Among all age groups, teenagers are e 73 affected.
In recent years, their monthly text messages have doubled, reaching an average
of 3,417. At the same time, the time they spend on face to face conversation has
become l 74 . Young people may be good with devices, but they often
have trouble understanding body language or behavior in person. This can lead
to embarrassing or even r 75 actions, like checking a text during a conversation without
realizing it might upset someone.
Adults also face challenges in focusing. In Mexico, a person who works in advertising says
people used to watch longer videos, but now they quickly lose i 76 and check their phones. Some
offices have stopped using laptops and phones during meetings to help people focus. A teacher who
loves movies is reading a book about a famous director. But he finds it hard to read more than two
pages without wanting to check his email. He w 77 deeply that he’s losing his ability to
concentrate.
Goleman suggests that by understanding these effects, we can take steps to balance technology
use and rebuild meaningful connections.

Lost luggage
By Tom Church
Two years ago, I went on holiday to Rome with my family. It was a four-hour train journey
from our home, and we all helped to plan the trip. We were looking forward to seeing the famous
sights! Everything went really well and we had a great time visiting the amazing tourist attractions. I
was in charge of taking all the photos with my brand new phone, which had an excellent camera.
We stayed in Rome for two weeks, and it was really amazing.
On the train journey back home, I decided to open my backpack, but I couldn’t find it. All my
memories of Rome were in that backpack. I was very upset because I’d packed my phone in that
第 8 页 共 10 页backpack, along with my travel diary. I knew I would never see my new phone again. Weeks passed,
and then months. At first, I contacted the train company every week, but after some time, it was
clear that my backpack was never going to be found. After a while, I forgot all about it.
Last month, I took the train to Florence on a school trip. Unbelievably, my backpack went
missing again! I searched and searched, but it was nowhere to be seen! After Rome, I always kept
my phone and other important items in my pockets.
Two weeks after the Florence trip, I received a phone call from the train company. They told
me they had my backpack, and they would send it to the station in my city. I assumed it was my
backpack from the school trip. But, this time, there were no precious memories inside. Someone
from the train company had found the backpack from Rome in a dusty old cupboard! Everything
inside it was safe, and I finally got to share the photos with my family. It was so wonderful to see
them. I decided we should all go back to Rome for another holiday … but this time, I would be
much more careful with my things!
