The study found that children who gain more weight, an

11、d whose heads grow quickly during the first month of life, tend to have a higher IQ when they start school.Researchers at the University of Adelaide, in Australia studied 13,800 children who were born at full-term. They found that those who put on 40% of their birth weight in the first four weeks ha

12、d an IQ 1.5 points higher than those who only put on 15% of their birth weight. Those who experienced the biggest growth in head circumference (頭圍) also had the highest IQs by the age of six.“Head circumference is an indicator of brain volume, so a greater increase in head circumference in a newly-b

13、orn baby suggests more rapid brain growth,” says the led author of the study, Dr. Lisa Smithers.She added, “Overall, newly-born children who grew faster in the first four weeks had higher IQ scores later in life. Those children who gained the most weight scored especially high on verbal (言語) IQ at a

14、ge 6. This may be because the neural (神經(jīng)的) structures for verbal IQ develop earlier in life, which means the rapid weight gain during the first month could be having a direct cognitive benefit for the children.”Previous studies have shown the association between early postnatal (產(chǎn)后的) diet and IQ, bu

15、t this is the first study of its kind to focus on the IQ benefits of rapid weight gain in the first month of life. Dr. Smithers says the study further highlights the need for successful feeding of newly-born babies. “We know that many mothers have difficulty establishing breastfeeding in the first w

20、 many different voices on charity donations recently. Chen TianQiao, one of the Chinese billionaires, gave away $115 million to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) to help promote brain research. Chen has been interested in the brain research, believing it can advance the industries of

21、artificial intelligence and virtual reality. However, this huge donation has caused heated discussion among Chinese scholars and internet users.Many criticized him for giving money to a foreign university rather than domestic institutes for brain research, which are developing fast and are catching

22、up with the US in just a few years. RaoYi, a biologist at Peking University, even said the donation was a typical mistake.Others, however, support his choice. They believe Caltech is a more reasonable choice compared with Chinese research Institutes. Caltech has a long history and has taken a leadin

23、g position in biology, and therefore it produces more efficient results. Whats more, the results of the research will benefit not only the Americans, but also the rest of the world.A similar controversial（有爭議的）case started two years ago when Pan ShiYi, chairman of SOHO China, donated $15 million to

24、Harvard University to help disadvantaged Chinese Students.Many believe that China is still far behind in management and use of donated money, and that as a result, Chinese donators are looking abroad. In comparison, Western countries like the US, which have a long history of donating money, have wel

25、l-developed systems that use money efficiently. They can also provide full access for donors who want to track the use of the money. To get more donations, Chinese universities should be braver and more honest. They need self-reflection rather than envy.1、Why did Chens huge donations draw peoples at

29、nal Science suggests.Swedish researchers found a common drug in rivers downstream of wastewater treatment plants. It is a drug for treating anxiety, called oxazepam. It is accumulating in fish and makes them bolder. Wastewater treatment plants are not designed to get rid of drugs. As a result, the d

30、rugs end up in wildlife, reaching harmful levels.“Its something we dont think about very often, but there are a lot of similarities between fish and humans. So some of our responses to drugs can be seen in fish as well,” said Karen Kidd. She is a biologist at the University of New Brunswick, Canada.

31、 The mood-altering drugs get into waterways when people taking the prescriptions throw unused pills into the waste stream.The researchers let perch（鱸魚）swim in lab tanks with concentrations similar to those found downstream from wastewater treatment plants. “The perch preferred to swim alone rather t

32、han in large groups. They were more likely to explore their environment,” said Micael Jonsson of Ume University in Sweden, who helped lead the research.Jonsson said, “This adventurous behavior required more energy. And they ate more plankton（浮游生物）, or tiny algae-eating animals, to guarantee enough e

33、nergy for their activities. This could reduce the population of plankton.” The result could be more algae(水藻). On the other hand, the new behavior could lead to the opposite effect. If perch make themselves closer to their natural enemies, they are likely to be eaten by them.None of the scientists i

34、s suggesting that people should give up these drugs. They just want to reduce the effects of the medicines on the environment. They recommend wastewater treatment plants should be redesigned to get rid of these medicines. But Kidd said that would be too expensive for some communities.Bryan Brooks, d

35、irector of the Environmental Health Science Program at Baylor University, said drugs could also be designed to break down more quickly in the environment. And the government could continue to run recycling programs where people drop off their unused drugs at government locations. Brooks said hes par

36、ticularly concerned about drug effects on aquatic（水生的）environments, like the Trinity River south of Dallas and the South Platte River near Denver, where the majority of the flow comes from treated wastewater. In the developing world, he said, the problem may be even worse, because of careless wastew

37、ater treatment and industrial regulations.1、Which of the following best describes oxazepams effect on fish?AIt causes fish to be more daring. BIt makes fish much stronger.CIt has little influence on fish. DIt helps treat a fish disease.2、What will happen if perch become adventurous?AThey will eat mo

38、re algae.BThere will be less plankton.CThey will need more oxazepam.DTheir natural enemies will be stronger.3、What would be the best title for the passage?AMore wastewater treatment plants are neededBFish in wastewater become more adventurousCDrugs for treating mental diseases end up in wildlifeDAnx

39、iety drugs found in rivers change the behavior of fish24（8分）An environment full of interesting or exciting ideas is important for young children, and much of a childs brain develops during the earliest part of life. The visual system, in particular, develops rapidly over the first few weeks. As earl

40、y as nine minutes after birth, babies prefer to look at photographs and pictures that most resemble the human face. Newborns can see color, and a one-month-old can tell red from green. At 12 weeks old, babies show preferences for colored things as opposed to white ones.In addition to looking at them

41、selves, babies are attracted to high contrast visuals, colorful objects, and faces. The same holds true for babies, who also are drawn to looking at animals, shiny objects, and familiar items that are part of their world.Its no surprise, then, that an art museum is a rich source of visual inspiratio

42、n for babies. Introducing babies to works of art promotes early neuron（神經(jīng)元）connections in the brain. And for the verbal study, interacting with an adult in naming images and describing different characteristics in a work of art lays the groundwork for visual and language development.Free Baby ToursW
