But in fact, an unknowncitizen who lived in Rome in AD 52 wrote it We all love new inventionsThey are exciting，amazing and can even change our lives But have all these developments really improved the quality of our lives? Picture this：Youre rushing to finish your homework on the computerYour mobile phone rings，a QQ message from your friend appears on the screen，the noise from the television is getting louder and louderSuddenly the computer goes blank and you lose all your workNow you have to stay up all night to get it doneHow calm and happy do you feel? Inventions have speeded up our lives so much that they often leave us feeling stressed and tiredWhy do you think people who live far away from noisy cities，who have not telephones，no cars，not even any electricity often seem to be happier? Perhaps because they lead simpler lives One family in the UK went “back in time” to see what life was like without all the inventions we have todayThe grandparents, with their daughter, and grandsons Benjamin，10，and Tomas，7，spent nine weeks in a 1940s houseThey had no washing machine，microwave，computer or mobile phones. The grandmotherLyn，said，“It was hard physically，but not mentally”She believed life was less materialistic“The more things you have，the more difficult life becomes,”She saidThe boys said they fought less to fight over，such as their computerBenjamin also noticed that his grandmother had changed from being a “trendy，beer-drinking granny，to one who cooked things.” Here are some simple ways to beat the Stress often caused by our inventions! Dont be available all the timeTurn off your mobile phone at certain times of the day. Dont check your e-mail every day. Dont reply to somebody as soon as they leave a text message just because you can. It may be fun at first, but it soon gets annoying61The passage is mainly about .

ADont be always busy on line BDont be always too free CDont be capable all the timeDDont be easily found by othersCAre you preparing for a big test? If so，you may want to go play some basketball in between hitting the booksDoctors 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 developedDrCameron is sure that this allows people who exercise to think betterAs she says“while we already know that exercise is good for the heart，exercise can actually cause physical changes in the brain”1,3,5The effects of exercise on brain development can even be seen in babiesBabies who do activities that require a lot of movement and physical activity show greater brain development than babies who are less physically activeEven a little movement can show big resultsMargaret Barnes，a scientist，also believes in the importance of exerciseShe 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 sensesThey need to set up a connection between motion and memoryIn this way，as they get older，children will begin to connect physical activity with higher learning，” saysMargaret.Older people can develop their brains as wellCornell University studied a group of seniors who have a short-term memory increase of up to 40 percent after exercising just three hours a weekThe exercise does not have to be very difficult，but it does have to increase the heart rateAlso，just like the motion for babiesexercise for older people should not be too simpleLearning some new skills or actions，such as with yoga or taichi helps to open up memory paths in the brain that may not have been used for a long timeFor most people，any type of physical activity that increases the heart rate is helpfulThe main aim is to increase the brains flow of bloodAnd your brain can benefit from as little as two to three hours of exercise a week65What is the main idea of this passage?AHow exercise makes people strong BHow to get good scores on a test CHow exercise helps the brain DHow the brain call change66According to the passage，what is the connection between exercise and brain development? AExercise helps make our blood vessels BPhysical exercise helps us think better CThe brain needs special mental exercise DThe more exercise，the bigger the brain67The smallest amount of exercise required to gain any benefit is _ Athree hours per week B40 hours per week Cthree hours per day D40 hours per month68Why is yoga suggested for seniors?AIt does good to the joints of old people BIt does not increase the heart rate CIt includes learning new actions DIt can be done in groupsDResearchers in the United States say dust clouds from dry African deserts may be a threat to the environment and human healthThey say the dust may contain many small organisms that could be dangerous to some people Each year，huge dust storms form in the Sahara and Sahel deserts of northern AfricaWinds carry the dust across the Atlantic OceanThe movement of dust across the Atlantic Ocean has been increasing in recent years because of longer periods without rain in Africa From February to April，the dust settles in South AmericaFrom June to October，the winds change and transport the dust to North America，Central America and the CaribbeanThe dust clouds travel several thousand meters above sea levelIt takes five to seven days for the dust to cross the Atlantic Ocean1,3,5Researchers have long known that the dust clouds could travel long distancesBut they thought few microorganisms could survive the trip because of damaging ultraviolet radiation（紫外线）from the sunResearchers now believe that the dust clouds block enough of the light to protect viruses， bacteria，and fungi in the dustResearchers say these microorganism may be a health risk to some peopleAbout half the bacteria and fungi that su
