are starting to find more and more information that suggests a connection between exercise and brain development. judy cameron, a scientist at oregon health and science university, studies brain development. according to her research, it seems that exercise can make blood vessels(血管), including those in the brain, stronger and more fully developed. doctor cameron is sure that this allows people who exercise to think better. as she says, “ while we already know that exercise is good for the heart, exercise can actually cause physical changes in the brain.”the effects of exercise on brain development can even be seen in babies. babies who do activities that requires a lot of movement and physical activity show greater brain development than babies who are less physically active. even a little movement can show big results. margaret barnes, a scientist, also believes in the importance of exercise. she thinks that many learning disabilities that children have in primary school or high school can result from a lack of movement as babies. “babies need movement that encourages and excites their five senses. they need to set up a connection between motion and memory. in this way, as they get older, children will begin to connect physical activity with higher learning,” says margaret.older people can develop their brains as well. cornell university studied a group of seniors who have a shortterm memory increase of up to 40 percent after exercising just three hours a week. the exercise does not have to be very difficult, but it does have to increase the heart rate. also, just like the motion for babies, exercise for older people should not be too simple. learning some new skills or actions, such as with yoga or tai-chi helps to open up memory paths in the brain that may not have been used for a long time. for most people, any type of physical activity that increases the heart rate is helpful. the main aim is to increase the brains flow of blood. and your brain can benefit from as little as two to three hours of exercise a week.1. what is the main idea of this passage?a. how exercise makes people strong.b. how to get good scores on a test.c. how

seaside resort on the english channel. only 50 miles from london, it offers a good variety of lively entertainment. it is a cheerful place, busy and crowded in the summer, but alive in every season of the year. its royal pavilion(布莱顿皇宫)is a masterpiece of english architecture. durham: whatever travelers see or dont see in england, they must see this city, in the northeast, just south of newcastle-upon-tyne. no one will forget the sight of its cathedral（教堂）and castle rising together on a steep hill overlooking a loop in the river wear, which almost surrounds them. the cathedral itself is one of the great medieval(中世纪的,公元476-1500)buildings in europe. liverpool: a port in the northwest of england which possesses a quality that is not found in quite the same way anywhere else in england: the quality of grandeur (壮观). liverpool has this grandeur in its site on the broad river mersey (more than half a mile wide) with the houses rising near it; in its great dock buildings, its broad streets, and its two enormous cathedrals. edinburgh: it has long been the capital of scotland. edinburgh castle is edinburghs important building, controlling the city from its perch on a rock over a hundred meters above sea level. another important building is the palace of holyrood house, begun by james around 1500. between the castle and the palace is the royal mile, which was the center of edinburgh life before the 17th century and is fascinating to visit now.64. which is the suitable time to visit brighton ? _a .only summer b. all the year around c. holidays d. weekdays65. which of

government needs to worry about it. but its hardly possible to completely stay out of it scientists are now 95 percent sure that humans have been the “dominant cause” of global warming trends since the 1950s. one of the conclusions of a report released on sept 27 by the united nations says that human activities have caused global temperatures to rise by 0.89 0c between 1901 and 2012. that might not seem like a lot, but the truth is that a major part of that heat has been absorbed into the oceans, which is not surprising given that they cover two thirds of earths surface. also, water has a much greater capacity (容量) to absorb heat than the air does, according to the economist. while many greenhouse gases occur naturally and are needed to keep the earth warm enough to support life, humans use of fossil fuels is the main source of excess (多余的) greenhouse gases. according to cnn, by driving cars, using electricity produced by burning coal and oil or heating our homes with coal or natural gas, we release a large amount of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. your body can barely feel a difference of 0.89 0c, but the earths ecosystems are so sensitive that even small changes can disturb them. it often starts with the smallest creatures at the bottom of the food chain, eventually affecting bigger animals, many of which could end up becoming extinct. global warming is also linked to an increase in extreme weather. a larger amount of carbon dioxide traps more energy inside the atmosphere. this changes the patterns of storms and rainfall in many regions and can lead to droughts and floods. worse still, melting sea ice in warmer oceans is causing sea levels to rise at a speed of more than three millimeters per year, according to the guardian, which also increases the risk of flooding. “the report should serve as another wake-up call that our activities today have a profound impact on society, not only for us, but for many generations to come,” french michel jarraud, secretary-general of the world meteorological organization, said at a news conference.68.theunderlinedword“dominant”inthefirstparagraphmeans “_”.a. common b.indirect c.secondary d.
