(2021·杭州学军中学海创园学校高三期末)    If you are aiming to master anything quickly, you can learn from Albert Einstein and Richard Feynman. They offer practical advice you can use to improve your learning.
According to Einstein, improving your intellectual capacity should be fun and enjoyable-happy learners are quick learners. In 1915, he wrote a letter to his 11-year-old son (HansAlbert) who was learning the piano and said.
“I am very pleased that you find joy with the piano. This and carpentry are in my opinion for your age the best pursuits, better even than school, because those are things which fit a young person such as you very well. Mainly play the things on the piano which please you, even if the teacher does not assign those. That is the way to learn the most when you are doing something with such enjoyment that you don’t notice that the time passes.”
To learn anything faster or better choose topics you will enjoy — you have control over what you are learning. Make the learning relevant. You should be able to answer the question “Why am I learning this?” at any point.
Richard Feynman won a Nobel Prize and always wanted to know more and to learn more Known as the “Great Explainer”, he was famous for his ability to explain complex topics in simple ways.
The Feynman Technique, his approach to improving learning, features explaining or teaching what you learn to others. It can help you learn better and keep more of what you learn. According to Feynman, it is significant to have the ability to explain things simply — so simple, in fact, that you could explain it to an eight-year-old. Einstein agrees. He once said, “t you can’t explain it simply, you don’t understand it well enough.”
For thousands of years, people have known that the best way to understand a concept is to explain it to someone else. “While we teach, we learn.” said the Roman philosopher Seneca. Learners keep a greater percentage of what they learn when they explain or teach the concept to someone else, or use it immediately. Your ideas will never be more effective than your ability to-make others grasp them. When you share, you remember better.

【分析】
本文是一篇说明文,介绍了爱因斯坦和费曼关于快速学习的方法。
45.
推理判断题。根据第三段信件中的第一句“I am very pleased that you find joy with the piano.(我很高兴你能从钢琴中找到乐趣)”以及信件最后一句“That is the way to learn the most when you are doing something with such enjoyment that you don’t notice that the time passes.(当你在做一件快乐的事情时,你不会注意到时间在流逝,这是学习最多的方法。)”可知,爱因斯坦对于儿子喜欢钢琴是很高兴的,因为喜欢做一件事可以促进学习。由此推断出,爱因斯坦给他儿子写这封信是支持儿子愉快地学习钢琴。故选C。
46.
推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句“For thousands of years, people have known that the best way to understand a concept is to explain it to someone else.(几千年来,人们都知道理解一个概念的最好方法就是向别人解释它)”提出了一个观点——理解概念的最好方法就是向别人解释它。然后通过Roman philosopher Seneca的“While we teach, we learn.(我们在教学的同时也在学习)”的名言进行解释。最后结合“Learners keep a greater percentage of what they learn when they explain or teach the concept to someone else, or use it immediately.(当学习者向他人解释或教授概念,或立即使用概念时,他们所学的知识所占比例更大)”可知,提到Seneca的目的就是为了说明教导他人的重要性。故选B。
47.
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“If you are aiming to master anything quickly, you can learn from Albert Einstein and Richard Feynman. They offer practical advice you can use to improve your learning.(如果你的目标是快速掌握任何东西,你可以向阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦和理查德·费曼学习。他们提供实用的建议,你可以用来提高你的学习)”结合下文的具体方法指导可知,本文通过介绍爱因斯坦和费曼的学习方法,来帮助你快速学习。那么A项Secrets of Learning Faster(快速学习的秘诀)就是本文的最佳标题。故选A。
