Havent you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a language?According to a new study by a British university, lear

11、ning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power. Researchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter. This is the area of the brain which processes information. It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles.The study also found the effect is greater, the yo

12、unger people learn a second language. A team led by Dr Andrea Michelle, from University College London, took a group of Britons who only spoke English. They were compared with a group of “early bilinguals” who had learnt a second language before the age of five, as well as a number of later learners

13、. Scans showed that grey matter density (密度) in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language. But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language, the smaller the difference.“Our findings suggest that the structure of the brain is changed by the experience

14、of learning a second language,” said the scientists.It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn.Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales has researched the link between bilingualism and maths skills. “Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and make

15、s the brain more flexible (靈活的).” he said. “You are actually going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas.”The findings were matched in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of two and 34. Reading, writing, and co

16、mprehension were all tested. The results showed that the younger they started to learn, the better. “Studying a language means you get an entrance to another world,” explained the scientists.1、The main subject talked about in this passage is _.Ascience on learning a second languageBmans ability of l

17、earning a second languageClanguage can help brain powerDlanguage learning and maths study2、In the second paragraph, the writer mentions “exercise” in order to _.Asay language is also a kind of physical laborBprove that one needs more practice when he (she) is learning a languageCto show the importan

Theres no denying that outdoor play helps a lot!Times when children have to wait for their turns on playground equipme

20、nt and following the playground rules by sharing, all these form components of a healthy social-emotional development. Young children develop their social-emotional skills through practice and small steps over time.As parents or caregivers, it is fairly simple to support your childs social-emotional

21、 skills. Acts like holding him, touching him, and speaking to him and giving him loving care and attention are all helping factors. When you allow them freedom to play, it is important to follow their interests in helping build their social-emotional skills.Difficulties in social-emotional skills ca

22、n often lead to children having trouble when playing with other children. Becoming easily angry or not empathizing (理解) with other children are all signs that may point in this direction. This can in turn lead to them not empathizing with the needs of other children.As for the development of cogniti

23、ve (認知的) skills, these develop through practice and opportunity over time. And while some cognitive skills may be genetic, most are learned through real life situations. In other words, learning and thinking skills can be improved through experiences.To enable them to learn, it is important that we

24、are mindful of what our children are interested in. And this realization is only set in place once the child is given enough room and time to grow and explore.Depriving children of such experiences can mean that they might struggle with higher- level thinking skills. And while it is normal to keep t

25、hem safe, we forget that by rushing them and cutting down on play time, were actually causing more harm than good.1、What can playing with other children greatly help children do?ALearn from other children.BDevelop their social emotion.CPromote their personal hobbies.DHelp them to control their emoti

28、nnounced that lightning can travel much farther and last much longer than previously thought.The conclusion is based on observations of a storm in Oklahoma that produced a lightning bolt (霹靂) nearly 200 miles long, nearly half the width of the state. The longest-lasting flash was observed in souther

29、n France, where a single flash in 2012 lasted for 7.74 seconds. Most lightning bolts last less than a second and travel only a few miles.“We should be more aware of lightning if we can have lightning that can travel 200 miles.” said Randy Cerveny, the spokesman on weather and climate extremes for th

30、e World Meteorological Organization, which added for the first time, lightning to its list of extreme weather events. This list includes records for heat, cold, wind speed, rainfall and other events.Scientists said that the Oklahoma lightning bolt shot from Tulsa, Okla. westward, nearly to the Texas

31、 border. It touched the ground in several places.The lightning can start tens or hundreds of miles away and then come back to where we are. Thats why we have to be careful of where the lightning is coming to ground, even though the storm is past.Of course not all storms have extreme lightning like t

32、hat observed in Oklahoman and French storms. The Oklahoma bolt came in the midst of a particularly bad patch of weather early on June 20, 2007.“Most lightning will strike within the 30-30 rule,” said Dr. Cerveny. “The 30-30 rule is one that we still want to stress and make sure people are aware of.

33、but it does confirm that lightning can hit far from where the storm actually is.”The “30-30” rule stipulates (規(guī)定) that if thunder follows lightning within 30 seconds, people should go inside for 30 minutes. If it lasts longer, its safe to stay outside.Studying lightning is important because it can b

34、e fatal when it strikes. This year, 35 deaths have been blamed on lightning striker, according to data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Thats the highest death toll related to lightning strikes in any single year since 2007, reports The Weather Channel.Though thunder is just

35、 the sound of lightening, the rumble(隆隆聲) arrives after the light flash during a storm, because light travels much faster than sound. The booming sound is a shock wave caused by the rapid expansion of air suddenly heated by the lightning holt.1、According to the authorities, lightning may _.Acause as

36、 great harm as a severe earthquakeBparallel hurricanes in their harm to humansCimpact on people in a larger area than rainsDbe far more difficult to forecast than storms2、The “30-30 rule” is established to show _.Awhen we can carry out observations on lightning boltsBwhat the relationship is between

37、 lightning and a stormCwhere lightning may possibly reach and cause damageDhow we might keep ourselves safe from a lightning bolt3、We can conclude from the passage that _.Athe longer distance a bolt covers, the more dangerous it may beBlightning bolts tend to take place in extremely hot summer daysC

38、we mustnt stop caring about the bolts until they come to an endDwhere there is no storm, there is no danger from lightning4、The passage tells us about _.Aan application in lightningBan update on lightningCan experiment on lightningDan analysis of lightning24（8分）When it comes to eating, most of us do

39、nt have to go very far. But for many bird species, finding food may mean traveling hundreds of thousands of kilometers.A team of researchers from institutions in the UK and Ireland spent five years tracking (追蹤) four species of seabird to monitor their travel patterns. It was discovered that over th

40、e five years, the species covered an area of 1.5 million square kilometers when hunting for food-almost four times the size of Japan.The findings were published recently in the journal Ecological Applications. As part of the study, over 1,300 birds were fitted with GPS tags to track their movements.

41、 It was discovered that most of them search for fish in the same place-waters off the coast of Scotland.As a result of this, organizations such as the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) will spend more time trying to preserve coastal Scotland.“For the first time, this study provides us

42、 with a full map for each breeding colony (繁殖群體) of the feeding areas for some of our most important seabird species,” wrote the studys lead author Ewan Wakefield, from the University of Glasgow.“That means we can now protect the places these birds catch the fish they need to feed their hungry chick

43、s.”The findings could also affect the future building of offshore wind turbines (滿輪機). Although wind turbines help to fight climate change by providing a green source of energy, their huge blades (刀片) are blamed for the deaths of thousands of birds each year, as they often fly into them.Stuart Housd

44、en, director of RSPB Scotland, said in a news release that although climate change is a huge threat to both humans and nature alike, we should “invest in an energy system that works for both people and our natural heritage.”To protect both nature and the environment, the RSPB supports the building o

45、f turbines in areas that wont have “significant adverse (不利的) impacts on important bird populations or their habitats,” it wrote on its website.1、What did the scientists from the UK and Ireland find about the four species of seabird?AThey have totally different travel patterns.BThey prefer to catch

46、fish in places near their nests.CClimate change has influenced their hunting distance.DThey can travel a very long distance to find food.2、According to the article, why is the research important?AIt shows what a perfect living environment for seabirds is.BIt was the first to use GPS technology to tr

47、ack seabirds.CIt could guide people on how to better protect seabirds.DIt provides more information about the diet of seabirds.3、Wind turbines are a threat to seabirds because _.Athey produce noise that could disturb seabirdsBtheir strong airflow could influence the flight of seabirdsCtheir big blad

48、es may kill the seabirds that fly byDthey force seabirds to move away from their habitats4、According to the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, _.Ano more wind turbines should be built in the futureBwe should think of more measures to protect the climateCthe government should invest more mone

49、y to protect seabirdsDwe should consider wildlife when we build turbines in the future25（10分） Recently whenever I turned on my computer or my mobile phone, news about the great effect of Hurricane Harvey on thousands of people caught my eyes. We saw many unfortunate events. However, there were also

50、the bright news that confirmed the goodness of mankind. As a journalist, I wrote many human interesting stories during my career.

While they were waiting for the eventual rescue that came on Monday morning, four decided to make as many loaves of bread as possible for their community.The flood water rose in the str

52、eet outside. They took advantage of their emergency power supply to bake bread. They used more than 4,200 pounds of flour to create hundreds of loaves and sheets of sweet bread. Although the water kept rising, they continued baking to help more people. By the time the owner managed to get to them, t

53、hey had made so much bread that we took the loaves to loads of emergency centers across the city for people affected by the floods.The store manager, Brian Alvarado, told The Independent，“Whenever a disaster occurs, nobody should just feel _forlorn_. Instead，we should take positive action to save ou

54、rselves and help others.
