Even if polluted air does not kill us, it can make us very sick.However, breathing dirty air may do more than hurt your body. It can also affect (影响)your brain and your ability to think.A new study shows that air pollution can cause a “huge” reduction(减少) in our intelligence(智商). The researchers reported that the long-term exposure(暴露) to air pollution can affect a persons mental(智力) abilities in two areas: language and math.Xi Chen, the researcher of the Yale School of Public Health led the study. He and his team found that breathing polluted air can reduce a persons education level by about one year.Chen said that the effect (结果)generally is worse for those over 64 years of age, especially for men and for those with little or no education.“The older persons they are more affected. And we find, quite interestingly, men are more affected than women. And people working outdoors are more affected than people working indoors.”The researchers noted that the effect of pollution on language ability is even more serious as people age, especially among men and the less educated.Why were language skills more affected than math? There are two main kinds of tissue(组织) in the brain: white matter and grey matter. White matter is more connected with a persons language skills, while grey matter is connected to our ability to solve math problems. Studies have shown that air pollution has a great effect on the white matter in the brain, but not the grey matter.Chen said that air pollution did affect the math skills, just not as much as their language skills.11 .

By listing what you need to do on any special day, you can make sure to keep all for your appointments and not worry whether youve forgotten something. Calendars are also useful for reminding(提醒) people what day a certain holiday is on and what days you might have off from work. Besides, they are used for planning fun things like vacations and outings.A calendar is usually divided into twelve parts, and each one stands for a month with all the days laid out in a grid-like (网格状的) form. A block of space usually is for a day, and there is enough space for you to write down what you need to do on that certain day. You probably use all different kinds of calendars. A calendar on your cell phone screen is easy to use, and so is a large paper calendar that hangs on your wall.Here is one page of Marys calendar and it shows her plans in May.16 .

How many full days will Mary spend in London?ATwo days.BThree daysCFour days.DFive days.Spending two or three hours playing outdoors each day can reduce(减少)a childs chance of becoming short-sighted (近视), research shows. It challenges the belief that short-sightednessis caused by computer use, watching TV or reading in weak light.Australian government researchers believe that sunlight is good for peoples eyes.They compared the vision(视力) and habits of 100 seven-year-old children in China and Australia. In all, 30% of the Chinese children were short-sighted. This percentage was ten times higher than Australian children.Both groups spent a similar amount of time reading, watching TV and playing computer games. However, the Australian children spent an average of two hours a day outdoors-90 minutes more than the Chinese children.Professor Ian Morgan said, Humans are naturally long-sighted, but when people begin to go to school and spend little or no time outdoors, the number of short-sighted people gets larger. We are also seeing more and more short-sighted children in cities all around the world-and the main reason may be that city children spend less time outdoors.Daylight can be hundreds of times brighter than indoor light. But why does playing outside prevent us from becoming short-sighted? Scientists believe that natural light has a special chemical (化学物质)which stops the eyeball from growing out of shape and prevents people from becoming short-sighted.So go outdoors. It doesnt matter if that time is spent having a picnic or playing sports.20 .
