Question

Does this ever happen to you? Someone introduces you to a friend, you hear his or her name, and then two minutes later, you forget it. Or you go to the same restaurant every day and the owner always says “Hello” to you but you can never remember her name. If this happens, you are typical — actually most people have the problem remembering names.
Here are some ways that can help people remember names.
※ Repeat the person’s name loud at least three times while you talk together. For example, instead of saying “Nice to meet you.” say “Nice to meet you, Jack (for Sue or whatever the person’s name is).” Instead of saying “Where do you live?” you can say “Where do you live, Jack?”
※ Introduce the person by name to someone else right away.
※ Write the name down (with a little information about the person) as soon as possible.
There are other ways which may seem a little strange. However, try them.
※ Think of a story using the person’s name. For example, think to yourself, “Jack has a nice jacket.” Imagine Jack in a nice jacket.
※ Think of a rhyme（押韵）for the person’s name. For example, think to yourself, “Jack would look nice in black.” Imagine Jack wearing black clothes.
All these ways have one thing in common. You must pay attention to the people you meet. You can’t just meet someone, nod your head, say hello, and walk away. Remembering names takes work and practice.

小题5:B

试题分析：本文主要讲述别人介绍与你认识时，你能记住他们的名字吗？并介绍了能记住他们名字的几种方法。
小题1:判断推理题。由第一段中actually most people have the problem remembering names.可知事实上大部分人在记住别人名字上有困难，而不是几乎没人（few people---）故选B
小题2:词义判断题。由后一句actually most people have the problem remembering names. 可判断The word “typical” probably means “common”.（典型的，普遍的）故选A
小题3:细节理解题。 由There are other ways which may seem a little strange. However, try them.
※ Think of a story using the person’s name.中a little strange.可知It may seem unusual to help remember a name by making up a story with it.通过由人名创作故事可能看起来有点怪，不寻常。故选A
小题4:细节理解题。由最后一段可知句意所有这些让你记住名字的方法有一共同特点让你必须关注别人，而非you must talk politely to the people you meet（不能单纯点头、问候、走开）故选B
小题5:主旨大意题。通过分析可知 This passage mainly tells us how to remember the others’names（如何记住别人的名字）.而不是how to get on well with others（如何与别人相处）故选B
