3、Writing out the same word again and again may bring back bad memories for some, but handwriting can boost connectivity across brain regions, some of which are involved in learning and memory, a new study shows.
In the study, psychologists Audrey and Ruud, both at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, stuck electrodes (电极) on the participants' heads. They asked the participants to type out or hand write with a digital pen words that appeared on a computer screen. Sensors in a cap recorded electrical brain activity. Then the psychologists looked for when two brain areas are active with the same frequency of electrical waves at the same time. This result can reveal the connectivity among different regions across the brain.
With handwriting, the researchers saw increased activity, specifically in low frequency bands, not only in the expected motor areas but also in others associated with learning. These low frequency bands have previously been shown to support memory processes. When the team compared the two tasks, they realized that handwriting —but not typing —increased the connectivity across parietal (顶叶) brain regions, which are involved in sensory and motor processing, and central regions, many of which are involved in memory.
"Even when the movements are very similar, the activation seems much, much higher in handwriting," Audrey says. "It shows that there's more involvement of these brain regions when you're handwriting, which might give you some specific advantages."
These findings suggest that there are distinct processes of brain activation happening while a person types or writes. This boost of stimulation of handwriting facilitates learning because these particular waves between these areas are involved in memory formation and encoding (编码) .
And although handwriting may help with learning processes, typing is often easier, faster and more practical. "Students and teachers alike should therefore consider the task at hand to decide to hand write or type," Audrey says. Despite the need for more studies to determine the best learning strategy, experts say that handwriting shouldn't be left behind in the digital age. "Schools need to bring in more writing into curriculum design," Ruud says.
(1)、What did Audrey and Ruud mainly do in their research?A、They tested the function of electrodes. B、They analyzed the brain structure. C、They monitored the brain activities. D、They recorded the writing speed.(2)、Why can handwriting improve learning more than typing?A、It involves more specific brain activation. B、It promotes better muscle memory. C、It allows for more innovative thinking. D、It encourages better concentration.(3)、What's the author's attitude toward typing?A、Favorable. B、Objective. C、Doubtful. D、Unclear.(4)、What might be the best title for the text?A、Taking Notes by Hand is Becoming Uncommon in Class B、Using Keyboard is Recommended Due to Its Convenience C、Widespread Brain Connectivity is Crucial to Human Learning D、Handwriting Boosts Brain Connections More Than Typing Does -
4、阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写一段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
During that hot summer, little Sammy and his sister Marie spent their vacation at their grandparents' farm. The farm was filled with fun and adventure, but one day, an unfortunate accident occurred. While playing, Sammy accidentally shot his grandmother's beloved pet duck with a slingshot (弹弓). Panicked, he quickly hid the duck behind a pile of old wood in the yard. He was afraid to tell his grandmother the truth, worried about being punished.
However, what he didn't know was that his sister Marie had seen the entire event. The next day, when Grandma asked Marie to wash the dishes, Marie seized the opportunity to shift the responsibility onto Sammy. She said, "Sammy told me he wanted to help in the kitchen today, Grandma." Sammy was shocked and confused because he had not said such a thing. Marie approached him and whispered threateningly, "Remember the duck?" It was then that Sammy realized Marie had seen his secret and was now using it to make him do the housework she didn't want to do.
This situation continued for several days. Whenever there were household chores to be done, Marie would threaten Sammy with "Remember the duck?". Sammy felt an increasing burden of guilt and responsibility.
注意:续写词数应为 80左右。
Finally, he couldn't bear the secret and pressure any longer and decided to tell everything to Grandma

16、阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容或括号内单词的正确形式。
It is widely accepted that optimistic attitudes promote health as well as happiness. The secret of a long life is (universe) desired and has long been sought. Today we can reveal it: always look on the bright side. A huge research project(lead) by scientists at the Boston University School of Medicine concludes that optimists live (long).
Lewina Lee, lead author of the study, said, "A lot of evidence(suggest) that exceptional longevity( 长 寿 ) is widely accompanied by a longer span of good health and living disability. Therefore our findings raise an exciting possibility we may be able to promote health and happiness by(develop) positive attitudes such as optimism."
However, the study doesn't suggest that we should aim for great pleasure. Sadness is important part of the human condition. Any normal person sometimes experience disappointment, ambitions and the(lose) of loved ones. But for many people, these matters of human existence (transform) into an abnormal state of despair. There is a vital place in public health for providing mental treatment in helping to correct these cognitive errors. It is not weakness to be defeated by setbacks. It is merely a mistake.

17、Kindness is the way forward in the world today. Simple things one does often1 something good in someone's life. There is2 too little or too much that you can offer. The best part about kindness is that no matter what you offer, it'll always be enough. An example of 93-year-old Joan Potter will3 your spirits. She does something selfless for animals. She doesn't4 to show kindness in a warm manner.
Potter spends her time making blankets and beds for dogs to keep them5. When asked why, she said, "I'm just6 to do it for them. It makes me feel so good to know they're not going to be lying on a hard floor." She wove her simple7 into kindness and shared them with the animals in need.
The beds made by Potter are donated to adoption centers. It's a8 for a 93-year-old to do most of the basic stuff, yet Potter9 her time each day to creating 30 beds in a month. "I cut up cloth for days until I have enough to stuff with," she said.
This is a double dose of kindness from Potter's10. Not only does Potter help animals, but she also cares for the11 by reusing the scrap fabric (碎布).
Even at 93, nothing12 Potter from spreading kindness each day. She looks beyond to understand the13 of these animals who can't speak for themselves. She makes us reflect on whether we're so thoughtful when it comes to helping others. Her14 show a little kindness goes a long way. And Potter has15 that right month after month by creating a warm place for the animals at adoption centers.

18、Embracing a Green Lifestyle
Living a green lifestyle is not only beneficial for the environment but also for your health and wallet. Here are some steps to embrace a green lifestyle.
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. These three simple words can make a big difference in your daily life. Whether it's using a reusable water bottle or shopping bag, these small actions can reduce waste and pollution.
Conserve water and electricity. Be mindful of your water and electricity usage. Simple habits like turning off the tap while brushing your teeth or switching off lights when not in use can save a lot of energy.
When shopping, opt for products that are made from sustainable materials and have minimal packaging. Remember to check the labels for certifications that indicate eco-friendliness. This not only helps to reduce waste but also supports companies that are committed to environmental protection.
Grow your own food. Planting a small vegetable garden or even a few herbs in pots can be a rewarding experience. It's a great way to ensure you're eating fresh and healthy food while also reducing your carbon footprint.
Use public transportation, carpool, or bike. Instead of driving alone, consider using public transportation, carpooling, or biking to work or school. This can significantly reduce your carbon emissions and improve air quality.

19、Going to sleep at a certain time is associated with a lower risk of developing heart disease, according to researchers. In a study published in the European Heart Journal, a team found that going to sleep between 10:00pm and 11:00pm was beneficial compared to earlier or later bedtimes. The research included 88,026 participants in the UK.
An analysis found that sleep onset time of 10:00pm to 10:59pm was associated with the lowest incidence of heart disease. There was a 25% higher risk of heart disease with sleep onset at midnight or later, a 12% greater risk for 11:00pm to 11:59pm and a 24% higher risk for falling asleep before 10:00pm compared to sleep onset from 10:00pm to 10:59pm.
"The body has a 24-hour internal clock that helps adjust physical and mental functioning." Study author David of the University of Exeter said in a statement. "While we cannot conclude from our study, the results suggest that early or late bedtimes may be more likely to destroy the body clock." "While the findings do not show conclusion, sleep timing has appeared as a potential heart disease risk factor-independent of other risk factors. If our findings are proved in other studies, sleep timing and basic sleep health could be a low-cost public health target for lowering risk of heart disease. "David added.
(1)、Which is the best time for sleep?A、8:40pm. B、9:50pm. C、10:45pm. D、11:10pm.(2)、How is Paragraph 2 organized?A、By giving some data. B、By raising a question. C、By giving an example. D、By following the time order.(3)、What can be inferred from David's words?A、Sleep too early will surely cause heart disease. B、Sleep timing is a possible heart disease risk factor. C、Sleep timing is a risk factor related with other factors. D、Sleeping before eight will not damage your body clock.(4)、What is the best title for the text?A、Body Clock Makes a Difference to Sleep B、Sleeping Late is not Harmful to Heart Health C、Sleep Timing Has an Effect on Heart Disease D、Earlier Bedtime is More Beneficial than Later One -
20、Sometimes people call each other "scared-cat". But have you ever thought about this expression? When a cat is frightened, its heart starts beating faster, its muscles get tense and there are changes in the chemicals in its bloodstream. Although the cat doesn't realize this, its body is getting ready for action. If the danger continues, the animal will do one of two things. It will protect itself, or it will run away as fast as it can.
Something like this also happens to people. When we are excited, angry, scared by other feelings, our bodies go through many physical changes. Our hearts beat faster, and our muscles get tense. All of these changes make us more alert and ready to react. We, too, get ready to defend ourselves or run.
Human beings, however, have a problem that animals never face. If we give way to our feelings and let them take over, we can get into trouble. Have you ever said something in anger or hit somebody and regretted it later? Have you ever shouted at a teacher, told somebody you were lonely, or said you were in love, and then wished later you had kept your mouth shut? It isn't always clever to express your feelings freely.
Does this mean that it's smarter always to hide our feelings? No! If you keep feelings of anger, sadness hidden away or bottled up inside, your body stays tense. Physical illness can develop, and you can feel disturbed badly inside. It can actually be bad for your health. It isn't good to keep pleasant feelings inside either; all feelings need to be expressed.
Feelings that you keep all bottled up inside don't just go away. It's as if you bought some bananas and put them in a cupboard. You might not be able to see them, but before long you'd smell them. And if you opened the cupboard, chances are that you'd see little fruit flies flying all over them. They are bad.
You can try to treat feelings as if they were bananas in the cupboard. You can hide them and you can pretend they don't exist, but they'll still be around. And at last you'll have to deal with them, just like those bananas.
(1)、When people and animals are aroused by fear, _______.A、they feel very regretful immediately B、They may get ready to attack or run away C、Their hearts beat either faster or slower D、Their muscles get neither tense nor relaxed(2)、Why do human beings get into trouble according to the passage?A、They are usually not as alert as animals. B、They sometimes can't control their feelings. C、They always do something wrong to other people. D、They don't pay attention to their physical changes.(3)、What can we infer from the passage?A、Holding in your feelings may lead to unpleasant results. B、Bananas stay fresh longer when they are in a cupboard. C、Feeling will gradually disappear when you hold them in. D、It's good for your health to keep pleasant feelings inside.(4)、What's the purpose of this passage?A、To help us deal with feelings in a wise and proper way B、To give us some advice on how to express our feelings. C、To tell us that people's feelings are like bananas in a cupboard. D、To prove that it isn't always wise to express our feelings freely.
