A new study shows that people who run, swim or do other moderate intensity(强度的)exercise have brains that look, on average，10 years younger than the brains of couch potatoes.“Our study showed that for older people, getting moderate intensity exercise may be protective, helping them keep their brains work better，”said Dr. Clinton Wright of the University of Miami, who led the study. But its not necessarily easy. Walking, golf, bowling and yoga didnt count, and people need to start before they begin showing memory loss, Wrights team reported in the journal Neurology.The study of nearly 900 people who exercise regularly showed that 90 percent fell into the lowintensity group. These people are part of a larger group taking part in a bigger study called Northern Manhattan Study. They were asked how long and how often they exercised during the past two weeks. Five years later, they were tested for memory and thinking skills and got a brain MRI. Seven years after that, they took the memory and thinking tests again. The 10 percent who said they took part in moderate intensity exercise scored better on the tests. These included running, climbing, swimming, riding bicycles and so on.“We found that those with moderate heavy activity had higher scores and slower decline than inactive patients when comparing the results，”the study team wrote.Many studies have shown that exercise may not prevent Alzheimers but may delay it. The findings fit in with a study that found two years of exercising, eating healthier food and brain training can promote peoples memory function.5. Whats true about the study?A.

Is this a good thing? Sometimes, when Mr. Ballmer and his 16yearold daughter, Elizabeth, listen to rock music together and talk about interests both enjoy such as pop culture, he remembers his more distant relationship with his parents when he was a teenager.“I would never have said to my mom, Hey, the new Weezer album is really great. How do you like it？”says Ballmer. There was just a complete gap in taste. Music was not the only distance. From clothing and hairstyles to activities and expectation: earlier generations of parents and children often appeared to move in separate orbits.Today, the generation gap has not disappeared, but it is getting narrow in many families. Conversations on subjects such as sex and drugs would not have taken place a generation ago. Now they are comfortable and common. And parentchild activities, from shopping to sports, involve feeling of trust and friendship that can continue into adulthood.No wonder greeting cards today carry the message, “To my mother, my best friend.”But family experts warn that the new equality can also result in less respect for parents. “Theres still a lot of strictness and authority on the part of parents out there, but there is a change happening，” says Kerne, a psychology professor, at Lebanon Valley College. “In the middle of that change, there is a lot of confusion among parents.”Family researchers offer a variety of reasons for these evolving roles and attitudes. They see the 1960s as a turning point. Great cultural changes led to more open communication and a more democratic process that encourages everyone to have a say.“My parents were on the before side of that change, but todays parents, the 40yearolds, were on the after side，” explains Mr. Ballmer. “Its not something easily accomplished by parents these days, because life is more difficult to understand or deal with, but sharing interests does make it more fun to be a parent now.”8. Which of the following shows that the generation gap is disappearing?A. Parents
