We have heard about people who have special memories. Recently there has been a report about a woman from Australia who can remember almost every single d 1. of all the events in her daily life.
Rebecca Sharrock, 25, is one of just 80 people worldwide who have been identified as having Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory(超级自传体记忆症). It means she can remember every small event—which most people would f 2. within days—as if it had happened just moments ago.
“I remember my mum placing me in the driver’s seat of a car and taking a picture of me when I was
twelve years old,” she said. “That’s my e 3. memory. I remember every day since then. I can’t tell all the dates e 4. because I was too young to understand calendars, but I remember what I did that day, what the weather was like and so on.”
Rebecca can also re-experience taste. If she’s eating something unpleasant, she thinks about Black Forest cake, her favorite food, and the memory will be so 5.p that she can nearly “taste” it.
However, there are times when her memories prove to be painful as it’s not just events that she remembers. “When I relive(再体验) memories, the feelings r 6. ,too.” Rebecca said. “For example, I remember falling over when I was three at my grandparents’ house and hurting my left knee. Talking about it now, I feel painful in my left knee.”
“At night, I have to sleep with the r 7. and a soft light on,” she added. “If it’s too dark or quiet, my mind would be filled with all those memories and I can’t sleep.”

C. Fill in the blanks with proper words.
For some people, music is no fun at all. About four percent of us are what scientists call amusic. Those amusics are born without the ability to r1. , repeat or remember musical notes(音调). Amusic people often cannot tell the difference between two songs. Amusics can only hear the difference between two notes if they are pretty different.
As a result, songs sound like n 2.to an amusic. Many amusics compare the sound of music to pieces of metal hitting each other. Life can be hard for amusics. Their unfitness to enjoy music makes them away from others.
It can be difficult for other people to get to know them. Actually, most people cannot understand what it feels like to be an amusic. Many amusics may not feel very c3.when they go to a restaurant or a shopping mall. Sometimes they even feel painful. That is why many amusics usually stay away from places where there is music. “I used to h4.parties,” says Margaret, a seventy-year-old woman who only discovered that she was an amusic last month. By studying people like Margaret, scientists are f 5.learning how to find this unusual condition.
Scientists say that the brains of amusics are different from the brains of people who enjoy music.
The difference isn’t about defective hearing(听力障碍).
Many amusics are happy when their condition is found. For years, Margaret felt embarrassed about the p 6. with music. Now she knows that a large number of people are like her. There is a name for the condition. That makes it e 7.for her to explain“When people invite me to a concert, I just say‘No thanks, I’m amusic,’”says Margaret.“I just wish I had learned to say that when I was seventeen and not seventy.”

A typical (典型的) American high school has several large buildings and enough s 1. for about 1,500 students. Every student is given a locker. When students first arrive at school, they go straight to their lockers to put away or get their textbooks and to hang up their outdoor clothes. As American textbooks are e 2. , students would rather borrow than buy them. Students must pay back if they lose any of them.
American students have different types of school t 3. . They usually take a yellow school bus or walk to school if they live close enough. Sometimes their parents drive them to school. When they turn 16 years of age, most take a free driving class at school for one term. If students earn passing grades in the class and also pass their state driver’s exam, they can begin driving t 4. to school.
Each day, students take six or seven classes. They must take science, maths, English and social studies. They can choose art, homemaking, fashion design and other classes. In some schools students are required to take one or more of the following special classes: health education, physical education or foreign language studies.

We might love to tell others about our unusual experiences—that time we climbed Mount Everest, tasted some rare food or ran into a famous person on the street. But new research suggests:that if we s1. these unusual experiences with others, it may bring something uncomfortable.
"Unusual experiences are pleasant in the moment but can cause social t2. in the long run, "says psychological scientist Gus Cooney of Harvard University. "Some people mistakenly thought that having an unusual experience would make them the star. But they were wrong, because to be unusual is to be different from other people, and social interaction is based on something similar. "
"We all h3. to have experiences that are fine and rare, and when we get what we want, we are always eager to tell our friends. But I've noticed that conversations always seem to develop well on more ordinary topics." Cooney explains. " This made me wonder if unusual experiences were r4. as lovely as we had thought. "
To find out, Cooney and his colleagues had 68 people come to the lab in groups of f5.. In each group, one person was asked to watch a popular video of a street magician performing for a crowd, while the other three people were asked to watch an ordinary animated video. After watching the videos, the people sat around a table and had a five-minute free conversation.
After the group discussion, the people who watched the magician's performance felt w6. than those who watched the animated video, because they felt they were not included during the discussion.
This finding suggests that we ought to give more thought in choosing what to talk about with others. If an experience turns you into someone who has n7. in common with others, then no matter how good it is, it won't make you comfortable in the long run.
