Google is even reportedly w

41、orking on eyeglasses that could one day recognize faces and supply details about whoever youre looking at. But new research shows that outsourcing our memory and expecting that information will be continually and instantaneously available -is changing our cognitive habits. Research conducted by Bets

42、y Sparrow, an assistant professor of psychology at Columbia University, has identified three new realities about how we process information in the Internet age. First, her experiments showed that when we dont know the answer to a question, we now think about where we can find the nearest Web connect

43、ion instead of the subject of the question itself. A second revelation is that when we expect to be able to find information again later on, we dont remember it as well as when we think it might become unavailable. And then there is the researchers final observation: the expectation that well he abl

44、e to locate inf orination down the line leads us to form a memory not of the fact itself but of where weII be able to find it. But this handoff comes with a downside. Skills like critical thinking and analysis must develop in the context of facts: we need something to think and reason about, after a

45、ll. And these facts cant be Googled as we go;they need to be stored in the original hard drive, our long-term memory. Especially in the case of children, factual knowledge must precede skill, says Daniel Willingham, a professor of psychology, at the University of Virginia - meaning that the days of

46、drilling the multiplication table and memorizing the names of the Presidents arent over quite yet. Adults, too, need to recruit a supply of stored knowledge in order to situate and evaluate new information they encounter. You cant Google context. Last, theres the possibility, increasingly terrifying

47、 to contemplate, that our machines fail us. As Sparrow puts it, The experience of losing our Internet connection becomes more and more like losing a friend. If youre going to keep your memory on your smart phone, better make sure its fully charged.81. Googles eyeglasses are supposed to _ _.Aimprove

51、cise their memory.Text BI was a second-year medical student at the university, and was on my second day of rounds at a nearby hospital. My universitys philosophy was to get students seeing patients early in their education. Nice idea,but it overlooked one detail:second-year students know next to not

52、hing about medicine. Assigned to my team that day was an attending - a senior faculty member who was there mostly to make patients feel they werent in the hands of amateurs. Many attendings were researchers who didnt have much recent hospital experience. Mine was actually an arthritis specialist. Al

53、so along was a resident (the real boss, with a staggering mastery of medicine, at least to a rookie like myself). In addition there were two interns(住院實習醫(yī)生). These guys were just as green as I was，but in a scarier way: they had recently graduated from the medical school, so they were technically MDs

54、. I began the day at 6:30 am. An intern and I did a quick check of our eight patients; later, we were to present our findings to the resident and then to the attending. I had three patients and the intern had the other five - piece of cake. But when I arrived in the room of 71-year-old Mr. Adams，he

55、was sitting up in bed, sweating heavily and panting (喘氣). Hed just had a hip operation and looked terrible. I listened to his lungs with my stethoscope, but they sounded clear. Next I checked the log of his vital signs and saw that his respiration and heart rate had been climbing, but his temperatur

56、e was steady. It didnt seem like heart failure, nor did it appear to be pneumonia. So I asked Mr. Adams what he thought was going on. Its really hot in here, Doc, he replied. So I attributed his condition to the stuffy room and told him the rest of the team would return in a few hours. He smiled and

57、 feebly waved goodbye. At 8:40 am., during our team meeting, Code Blue Room 307! blared from the loudspeaker. I froze. That was Mr. Adamss room. When we arrived, he was motionless. The autopsy (尸體解剖) later found Mr. Adams had suffered a massive pulmonary embolism (肺部栓塞). A blood clot had formed in h

58、is leg, worked its way to his lungs, and cut his breathing capacity in half. His symptoms had been textbook: heavy perspiration and shortness of breath despite clear lungs. The only thing was: I hadnt read that chapter in the textbook yet. And I was too scared, insecure, and proud to ask a real doct

59、or for help. This mistake has haunted me for nearly 30 years, but whats particularly frustrating is that the same medical education system persists. Who knows how many people have died or suffered harm at the hands of students as naive as I, and how many more will?86. Why was the author doing rounds

60、 in a hospital? AHe himself wanted to have practice.BStudents of all majors had to do so.CIt was part of his medical training.DHe was on a research team.87.
