As the old saying goes, “Use it or lose it.” But, there is very little scientific evidence to

She designed a study in which she and her tern placed 221 healthy aging and older adults into one of three groups.“We asked people to learn new things, like quilting or photography. We asked other people to just do fu

12、n things like being in a social group function but were not likely to have a very large effect.”The subjects took part in their assigned activities for 15 hours a week over three months. At the end of that time, the researchers found that the adults who learned new skills, such as digital photograph

13、y, showed the greatest improvements on memory tests.No improvements were seen in the results of those in the social group that did activities together like going on field trips. There were also no improvements among the third group that listened to classical music or did crossword puzzles.Denise Par

14、k believes one reason for improved memory in the active learning group is that its members were being pushed to learn new skills. The other groups took part in what she call receptive activities. Learning new skills may not cure age-related mental decline. But, Ms. Park thinks being mentally active

15、slows down the process.Denise Park says the latest information shows that the improvements lasted for at least a year. She and her team plan to do longer follow-up studies with all three groups. She also is interested in learning whether taking part in demanding mental activities delays the developm

27、ce in it.Two U. S.based groups, the Council on Foreign Relations and the National Geographic, Society commissioned an online survey earlier this year. They wanted to know what young people educated in American colleges knew about geography, U. S. foreign policy, recent international events, and econ

28、omics.The survey was given to over 1,200 Americans between the ages of 18 and 3 years. All of them presently attending, or having previously graduated from, a 2-or 4-year college or university.The average test score, out of 75 total possible answers, was 55 percent. The study identifies a few import

29、ant problems. For example, only 30 percent knew that the only part of the U. S. government that can declare war is Congress. Only 60% of those taking the survey could identify Brazil on a world map.Part of the problem, argue the organizers of the survey, is the internet. They say it is becoming hard

30、er to find high-quality information about world events amongst all the fake news and trivia which swamp the web. Forty-three percent of those questioned said they read about the news on Facebook.Another problem is that most college courses do not require students to learn about international issues.

31、 If such information is not required, Richard Haass from the Council on Foreign Relations said, then the United States could have leaders like Gary Johnson. He was a recent presidential candidate who did not know about the Syrian city of Aleppo when a reporter asked him about it.The survey results w

And the majority of them said that international issues were becoming more important to them.Haass says these findings suggest the need to find was to get good information to students, bo

To help, the Council on Foreign Relations is creating a new program called CFR Campus, designed to help build knowledge about global issues.1、What can we learn about the survey?AAll the participants were recent university graduatesBIt was an online survey conducted by two US

But can you combine the two to do something for your local environment? As early as next year it may well be possible. When you have finished with y

37、our mobile phone you will be able to bury it in a garden or a plant pot and wait for it to flower.A biodegradable (生物所能分解的) mobile phone was, this month, introduced by scientists. It is hoped that the new type of phone will encourage consumers to recycle.Scientists have come up with a new material o

38、ver the last five years. It looks like any other plastic and can be hard or soft, and is able to change shape. Over time it can also break down into the soil without giving out any poisonous chemicals. British researchers used the new material to develop a phone cover that contains a sunflower seed.

39、 When this new type of cover turns into waste, it forms fertilizers. These feed the seed and help the flower grow.Engineers have designed a small transparent (透明的) window to hold the seed. They have made sure it only grows when the phone is throw n away. “Weve only put sunflower seeds into the cover

40、s so far. But we are working with plant experts to find out which flowers would perform best. Maybe we could put roses in next time.” said one scientist.As phone technology is developing so quickly, people are constantly throwing their mobiles away. This means manufacturers are under pressure to fin

41、d ways of recycling them. Some 650 million mobile phones have been sold this year. Most of them will be throw n away within two years, adding plastic, heavy metal and chemical waste to the environment. A biodegradable cover can offer some relief for nature, according to the scientists.“The seed come

42、s out and the flower grows in the pot so you dont have to concern yourself with the phone when you have finished using it,” said Kerry Kirw an. She leads the research team, which is based at the University of Warw ick in Britain.1、What is the purpose of this passage?ATo tell the popularity of biodeg

43、radable cell phones.BTo discuss the development of the cell phone technology.CTo persuade the readers to buy the biodegradable cell phone.DTo introduce an environmental-friendly cell phone to readers.2、Which of the following is TRUE about the cover of the new type of phone?AIt can turn into useful f

44、ertilizer for the sunflower seeds.BIt can hardly serve as the storage for the sunflower seed.CIt may give out poisonous chemicals when breaking down.DIt may make the seed grow after the phone is throw n away.3、What can be inferred from the passage?AThe new type of mobile phone will sell extremely we

45、ll.BThe new type of mobile phone is already on the market.COther flowers may be used in the new type of cell phone.DMobile phone is increasingly important to the environment.4、The most suitable title for this passage might be “ ”.ADesign a Phone BHelp the Sunflower to growCProtec t Our Environment D

46、Plant Your Phone25（10分） 3D printing is becoming more and more popular. We are now able to create things we need very quickly and easily using 3D printers. But can you imagine printing food?Some scientists are trying to revolutionize the dining experience by doing this. They hope that having a 3D pri

47、nter in the kitchen will be as common as the microwave oven or blender.Scientists say that itll be quite easy: you simply have to select a recipe and put the raw food inks into the printer. You can also modify the instructions to make the food exactly how you want it. This means that it would be ver

48、y quick and easy to create tasty and nutritious meals.Using 3D printers to create your meals would also be saving the environment. There would be less need for traditional growing, transporting and packaging processes as food production would be a lot more efficient. For example, alternative ingredi

49、ents(原料) such as proteins from algae, beetroot leaves and insects could be converted into tasty products.Printing food could also help people who suffer from dysphasia (a swallowing disorder). They could program the printer to print softer versions of their favorite foods so that they would not have

50、 trouble in swallowing them.However, some people think that a future of 3D food printing would be a disaster. It could take away many jobs, including those fro growing, transporting and packaging food. Imagine a world where there was no need for farming or growing crops and the same tastes could be

51、printed from a raw “food ink”. Likewise, traditional cafes and restaurants might lose business. Also, there are concerns about the nutritional value of printed food: is it really possible to be get the nutrients we need from food based inks and gels(凝膠)?Whats more , cooking and eating together with

52、family and friends has long been a traditional and enjoyable activity. It is hard to imagine a world where the pleasure of cooking is dead and meals can be created at the touch of a button.1、Which of the following best describes 3D food printing?AQuick and popular.BEasy and efficient.CNutritious and

53、 tasty.DSoft and convenient.2、Why do some think that 3D food printing would be a disaster?ATraditional food would disappear.BMany people could lose their jobs.CIt would affect the peoples health.DWe could all eat the same food.3、What can we infer from the last paragraph?A3D food printing will replac
