二、閱讀理解閱讀下列短文，從每小題所給的 A、B、C、D四個選項中選出最佳選項。

• 11．Do you find it difficult to put down your mobile phone？If your answer is yes，you're not alone.These days，many people can't live without their phones.They reach for them as soon as they wake up in the morning.They keep checking their apps，such as QQ and WeChat，to get the latest news.
     It may be difficult for these people to give up the bad habit，so Google developed an app called Dashboard to help them.This app helps users manage the time they spend on their phones.
     First，Dashboard allows the users to look at their phone habits.For example，users can see how many times they have unlocked their phones，how many times they have checked their apps，and how much time they spend on each app each day.Once the users see this information，they will be able to make some changes.They can set a time limit （限制） for how long they can use each app every day.After they've hit the limit，they won't be able to use the app until the next day.What's more，Dashboard can help keep the phones silent when users put their phones face down，so they will use the phones less.
     If you truly want to make full use of your free time instead of spending hours using your smart phone，this new app is just a good choice.After all，controlling yourself and having a strong will can help you most.
  
  （1）Dashboard may be helpful to people who

  .
  A．can't use apps like We Chat
  B．know little about smart phones
  C．want to use their phones less
  （2）The underlined word "manage" in Paragraph 2 probably means

  in Chinese.
  A．管理
  B．經營
  C．完成
  （3）What does the third paragraph mainly talk about？

  
  A．What people's phone habits are.

  A．Dashboard will keep the phone silent.
  B．They can't use the app that same day.
  C．Dashboard will set a new time limit.
  （5）In the writer's opinion，whether or not people can use the phone less mainly depends on

• 13．Many studies have shown the learning-by-teaching effect．Students who spend time teaching what they've learned show better understanding and ability to remember knowledge than students who simply spend the same time re-studying．But why does teaching help？
     Researchers led by Aloysius Wei Lun Koh did a study to test their idea that teaching improves the teacher's learning because it forces the teacher to retrieve （檢索）what they've learned．In other words，they believe that bringing to mind what we've learned leads to deeper and longer-lasting acquisition （獲得）of that information than spending more time re-studying．
     The researchers asked 124 students to spend ten minutes studying a text with numbers on a topic which is completely new to them．They told the students they could take notes while studying，but would teach the material afterwards without notes．After studying the text，the students were divided into four groups．In one group the students spent five minutes delivering a lesson on the study material without notes．The other groups either spent the same time completing arithmetic （算術）problems，teaching with a script （講稿）or writing down all they could remember from the text-a form of retrieval practice．A week later，all the students returned to the lab for a surprise test of their knowledge and understanding of the text．
     The important finding is that the teaching-without-notes group and the retrieval-practice group outperformed the group that completed arithmetic problems and the group that taught with a script．In fact，the performance of the teaching-without-notes group and the retrieval-practice group was comparable．
     The researchers said the result shows that the benefits of the learning-by-teaching method are caused by retrieval practice；that is，the learning-by-teaching method works only when the teaching involves retrieving the taught materials．
     The new findings have a practical suggestion for how the learning-by-teaching method is used in education．In order to make sure that students learn and remember an educational material，they should internalize （內化）the material before presenting it to others，rather than depend on notes during the presentation process．
  
  （1）Why did the researchers do the study？

  
  A．To compare different methods of learning．
  B．To test whether teaching can improve learning．
  C．To find out the reason why people like teaching．
  D．To check the reason for learning-by-teaching effect．
  （2）Paragraph 3 is mainly about

  ．
  A．how long the study lasted
  B．who took part in the study
  C．what result the study showed
  D．how the study was performed
  （3）What can we learn from the study？

  
  A．Teaching with a script is the best way of learning．
  B．Teaching benefits learning because of retrieval practice．
  C．Solving arithmetic problems is harder than doing other tasks．
  D．Presenting with notes can help students remember a material．
