第2题

Researchers have established that when people are mentally engaged, biochemical changes occur in the brain that allow it to act more effectively in cognitive(认知的) areas such as attention and memory. This is true regardless of age.

People will be alert(警觉的)and receptive if they are faced with information that gets them to think about things they are interested in. And someone with a history of doing more rather than less will go into old age more cognitively sound than someone who has not had an active mind.

Many experts are so convinced of the benefits of challenging in the brain that they are putting the theory to work in their own lives. “The idea is not necessarily to learn to memorize large amounts of information,” says James Fozard, associate director of the National Institute of Ageing. “Most of us don’t need that kind of skill. Such specific training is of less interest than being able to maintain mental alertness.” Fozard and others say they challenge their brains with different mental skills, both because they enjoy them and because they are sure that their range of activities will help the way their brains work.

Gene Cohen, acting director of the same institute, suggests that people in their old age should engage in mental and physical activities individually as well as in groups. Cohen says that we are frequently advised to keep physically active as we age, but older people need to keep mentally active as well. Those who do are more likely to maintain their intellectual abilities and to be generally happier and better adjusted. “The point is, you need to do both,” Cohen says. Intellectual activity actually influences brain-cell health and size.

(1)What is the passage mainly about?()

A. Special mental training for old people.

B. Biochemical changes in the human brain.

C. The influence of intellectual activities on brain-cell size.

D. The importance of mental activities in the efficiency of the brain.

(2)A person who is said to be cognitively healthy should ().

A. be alert and receptive in mind B. who are highly intelligent

C. be good at doing group work D. remember large quantities of information

(3) The findings of James and other scientists in their work ().

A. remain a theory to be further proved B. have been challenged by many other experts

C. are practiced by the researchers themselves D. have been generally accepted

(4)According to Fozard's argument, people can make their brains work more efficiently by ().

A. constantly doing memory work B. making frequent adjustments

C. going through specific training D. taking part in various mental activities

(5) Which of the following statements would Cohen most probably support?()

A. Older people should keep mentally active by challenging their brains.

B. No matter whether it is done in group or alone, mental activity is always good for brain-cell health.

C. Physical strength is more important to older people than mental health.

D. People who engage in more mental activities but less physical ones are always happier.

We live in a society in there is a lot of talk about 【M1】______
science, but I would say that there are not 5 percent of
the people who are equipped with schooling, including
college, to understand scientific reasoning. We are
more ignorant of science as people with comparable 【M2】______
educations in Western Europe.
There are a lot of kids who know everything about
Computers who to build them, how to take them apart,
how to write programs for games. So if you ask them 【M3】______
to explain about the principles of physics that have gone 【M4】______
into creating the computer, you don't have the faintest idea. 【M5】______
The failure to understand science leads to such
things like the neglect of the human creative power. 【M6】______
It also takes rise to a blurring(模糊) of the distinction 【M7】______
between science and technology. Lots of people don't
differ between the two. Science is the production 【M8】______
of new knowledge that can be applied or not, since 【M9】______
technology is the application of knowledge to the
production of some products, machinery or the like.
The two are really very different, and people who have
the faculty for one very seldom have a faculty for the other.
Science in itself is harmless, more or less. But as
soon as it can provide technology, it is not necessarily
harmful. No society has yet learned how to forecast the 【M10】______
consequences of new technology, which can be enormous.

第5题

Children are a relatively modern invention. Until a few hundred years ago they did not exist. In medieval and Renaissance painting you see pintsized men and women, wearing grown-up clothes and grown-up expressions, performing grown-up tasks. Children did not exist because the family as we know it had not evolved.
Children today not only exist; they have taken over, in no place more than in America, and at no time more than now. It is always Kids' Country here. Our civilization is child-centered, child-obsessed. A kid's body is our physical ideal. In Kids' Country we do not permit middle-age. Thirty is promoted over 50, but 30 knows that soon his time to be overtaken will come.
We are the first society in which parents expect to learn from their children. Such a topsy-turvy (颠倒) situation has come about at least in part because, unlike the rest of the world, ours is an immigrant society, and for immigrants the only hope is in the kids. In the Old Country, that is, Europe, hope was in the father, and how much wealth he could accumulate and pass along to his children. In the growth pattern of America and its everexpanding frontier, the young man was ever advised to GO WEST; the father was ever inheriting from his son. Kids' Country may be the inevitable result.
Kids' Country is not all bad. America is the greatest country in the world to grow up in because it is Kids' Country. We not only wear kids' clothes and eat kids' food; we dream Kids' dreams and make them come true. It was, after all, a boy's game to go to the moon.
If in the old days children did not exist, it seems equally true today that adults, as a class, have begun to disappear, condemning all of us to remain boys and girls forever, jogging and doing push-ups (俯卧撑) against eternity.
The author uses the example of the Renaissance painting to show that ______.
A.adults showed less concern for children than we do now
B.adults were smaller and thinner at that time; but they still had a lot of work to do
C.children looked and acted like adults at that time
D.children were not permitted to appear in family paintings at that time

第6题

阅读文章,回答下列各题: As we know, if we want to keep our healthy and have a strong body, our eating habits are very important in our daily life. There are times when most of us would rather eat sweets and ice cream than meat and rice. Actually, sweets and ice cream are not bad for the stomach if we eat them at the end of a meal. If we eat them before a meal, they may take away our appetite. Meanwhile, it is important for us to eat our meal at the same time each day. When we feel hungry, it shows that our bodies need food. When we feel angry or excited, we may not want to eat. When we are worded, we may not want to, eat, either. A long time ago, in England, some judges used to decide whether, a man was telling the truth by giving him some dry bread. If the man could not swallow the bread, it was a sign that he wasn' t telling the troth. Although this seems very strange and rather foolish, it is indeed an excellent way of finding out the truth. A man who is worrying about something has difficulty in swallowing anything dry. He loses his appetite and does not want to eat anything if he is worrying something. We have to develop good ,eating habits because__________
A. we want to be healthy and strong
B. we want to enjoy our food
C. we want to eat more
D. we want to save time

第8题

Developing countries are unusually vulnerable to cigarette advertising. Until recently, some of them sold tobacco only through government monopolies, with little or no attempt at persuasion. And because most of these countries don't have effective anti-smoking campaigns, many of their people are surprisingly innocent of the link between tobacco and disease. In Manila, we even found cigarettes sold at a snack bar operated by the local Boy Scouts.
Many governments, moreover, are reluctant to wage anti-smoking wars because they're addicted to tobacco taxes. Argentina gets 22. 5 percent of all tax revenue from tobacco; Malawi, 16.7 percent.
Into this climate of naivety and neglect, American tobacco companies have unleashed not only the marketing wizardry (魔术) that most of us take for granted, but other tactics they wouldn't dare use here.
Tobacco spokesmen insist that cigarette advertising draws only people who already smoke. But an ad executive, who worked until recently of the Philip Morris account, speaking on condition of anonymity, disagrees. "You don't have to be a brain surgeon to figure out what's going on. Just look at the ads. It's ludicrous (荒唐的) for them to deny that a cartoon character like Joe Camel isn't attractive to kids."
People in developing countries are easily influenced by cigarette advertising because ______.
A.they don't know the relationship between tobacco and disease
B.they have a strong inclination to smoke
C.they have been forbidden to smoke by the governments
D.there were no institutions which persuade them not to smoke

Mobile Phones:Are They about to Transform. Our Lives? We love them so much that some of us sleep with them under the pillow,yet we are increasingly concerned that we cannot escape their electronic reach.We use them to convey our most intimate secrets,yet we worry that they are a threat to our privacy.We rely on them more than the lnternet to cope with modern life,yet many of us don’t believe advertisements saying we need more advanced services.
Sweeping aside the doubts that many people feel about the benefits of new third generation phones and fears over the health effects of phone masts(天线竿),a recent report clains that the long-term effects of new mobile technologies will be entirely positive so long as the public can be convinced to make use of them.Research about users of mobile phones reveals that the mobile has already moved beyond being a mere practical communications tool to become the backbone (支柱)of modern social life,from love affairs to friendship to work.One female teacher,32,told the researchers:“I love my phone.It’s my friend.”
The close relationship between user and phone is most pronounced among teenagers,the report says,who regard their mobiles as an expression of their identity.This is partly because mobiles are seen as being beyond the control of parents.But the researchers suggest that another reason may be that mobiles,especially taxt messaging,are seen as a way of overcoming shyness.“Texting is often used for apologies,to excuse lateness or to communicate other things that make us uncomfortable,”the report says,The impact of phones,however,has been local rather than global,supporting existing friendships and networks,rather than opening users to a new broader community.Even the language of texting in one area can be incomprehensible to anybody from another area.
Among the most important benefits of using mobile phones,the report claims,will be a vastly improved mobile infrastructure(基础设施),providing gains throughout the economy,and the provision of a more sophisticated location-based services for users.The report calls on govemment to put more effort into the delivery of services by bobile phone,with suggestions including public transport and traffic information and doctors’ text messages to remind patients of appointments.“I love that idea,”one user said in an interview.“It would mean I wouldn’t have to write a hundred messages to myself.”
There are many other possibilities.At a recent trade fair in Sweden,a mobile navigation product was launched.When the user enters a destination,a route is automatically downloaded to their mobile and presented by voice,pictures and maps as they drive.In future,these devices will also be able to plan around congestion(交通堵塞)and road works in real time.Third generation phones will also allow for remote monitoring of patients by doctors.In Britain scientists are developing a asthma(哮喘)management solution,using mobiles to detect early signs of an attack.
第11题:What does the writer suggest in the first paragraph about our attitudes to mobile phones?
A.We can’t live without them.
B.We are worried about using them so much.
C.We have contradictory feelings about them.
D.We need them more than anything else to deal with modem life.

Have you ever wondered what our future is like? Practically all people【C1】______a desire to predict their future【C2】______People seem inclined to【C3】______this task u sing causal reasoning.

We learn that getting an education will【C6】______how much money we earn later and that swimming beyond the reef may bring an unhappy【C7】______with a shark.
Second, people also learn that such【C8】______of cause and effect are probabilistic in nature. That is, the effects occur more often when the causes occur than when the causes are【C9】______, but not al ways.【C10】______, students learn that studying hard produces good grades【C11】______most instances, but not every time. Science makes these concepts of causality and probability more clear and【C12】______techniques for dealing with them more【C13】______than does causal human inquiry. In looking at ordinary human inquiry, we need to【C14】______between prediction and under .standing. Often, even if we don't under stand why, we are willing to act on the basis of a demonstrated【C15】______ability.
Whatever the primitive drives that【C16】______human beings, satisfying them depends heavily on the ability to predict future circumstances. The attempt to predict is often played in the【C17】______of knowledge and understanding. If you can understand why certain regular patterns【C18】______, you can predict better than if you simply ob serve those patterns. Thus, human inquiry aims【C19】______answering both "what" and "why" questions, and we【C20】______these goals by observing and figuring out.
