Adults are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practised in the meantime. A man who has not had an opportunity to go swimming for years can ___21___ swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after several decades and still    22   away. A mother who has not    23  the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins "Twinkle, twinkle, little star" or recite the story of Cinderella or Snow White.
  One explanation is the    24    of over learning, which can be stated as following: Once we have learned something, additional learning increases the    25   of time we will remember it.
  In childhood, we usually continue to practise such skills as swimming, bicycle riding long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and    26   ourselves of poems such as "Twinkle, twinkle, little star" and childhood tales such as Cinderella or Snow White. We not only learn but  __27  .
  The law of over learning explains why cramming (突击学习) for an examination, though it may result in a(an)    28    grade, is not a    29   way to learn a school course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little over learning,    30  , is usually a good investment toward the future.
  21. A. only               B. hardly           C. still               D. even
  22. A. move              B. drive             C. travel             D. ride
  23. A. thought about     B. cared for         C. showed up      D. brought up
  24. A. result             B. law              C. rule             D. cause
  25. A. accuracy          B. unit                 C. limit             D. length
  26. A. remind            B. inform             C. warm            D. recall
  27. A. recite              B. overlearn         C. research         D. improve
  28. A. passing           B. average             C. excellent             D. discouraging
  29. A. convenient       B. demanding       C. satisfactory       D. swift

Being alone in outer space can be frightening. That is one reason why astronauts on solo (单独的) space flights were given plenty of work to keep them  21 . They were also constant communication with people on the earth.  22 , being with people from whom you cannot get away might be even harder than being alone. This is what happens on long submarine (潜水艇) voyages. It will also happen on  23  space flights in the future. Will there be special problem of adjustment under such conditions?
Scientists have studied the reactions of men to one another during long submarine voyages. They have found that the longer the voyage lasts, the more serious the problem of 24  is. When men are  25  together for a long period, they begin to feel uneasy. Everyone has little habits of speaking and behaving that are ordinarily acceptable. In the limited space over a long period of time, however, these little habits may become very  26 .
Apparently, although no one wants to be  27  all the time, everyone needs some degree of privacy. When people are enclosed together, they are in what is called a stress situation. That means that they are under an unusual amount of  28  or stress.
People who are well-adjusted are able to  29 stress situations better than others. That is one reason why so much care is taken in  30  our astronauts. These men undergo a long period of testing and training. One of the things tested is their behavior under stress.

One topic is rarely mentioned in all the talk of improving standards in our schools: the almost complete failure of foreign-language teaching. As a French graduate who has taught for more than twenty-five years, I believe I have some idea of why the failure is so total.  21  the faults already found out in the education system as a whole — such as child-centred learning, the “discovery” method, and the low expectations by teachers of pupils — there have been several serious  22  which have a direct effect on language teaching.
The first is the removal from the curriculum (课程) of the thorough teaching of English  23 . Pupils now do not know a verb from a noun, the subject of a sentence from its object, or the difference between the past, present, or future.
Another important error is mixed-ability teaching, or teaching in ability groups so  24  that the most able groups are  25  and are bored while the least able are lost and  26  bored. Strangely enough, few head teachers seem to be in favour of mixed-ability school football teams.
Progress depends on memory, and pupils start to forget immediately they stop having 27  lessons. This is why many people who attended French lessons at school, even those who got good grades, have  28  it a few years later. Because they never need it, they do not practice it.
Most American schools have accepted what is inevitable and  29  modern languages, even Spanish, from the curriculum. Perhaps it is time for Britain to do the same, and stop  30  resources on a subject which few pupils want or need.
21. A. Due to                 B. In addition to       C. Instead of            D. In spite of
22. A. errors                  B. situations             C. systems               D. methods
23. A. vocabulary           B. culture                C. grammar             D. literature
24. A. wide                    B. similar                C. separate               D. unique
