Text I If you want to stay young, sit down and have a good think. This is the research finding of a team of Japanese doctors, who say that most of our brains are

32、 not getting enough exercise-and as a result, we are ageing unne _ssarily soon. Professor Taiju Matsuzawa wanted to find out why otherwise healthy farmers in northern Japan appeared to be losing their ability to think and reason at a relatively early age, and how the pro _ss of ageing could be slowe

33、d down. With a team of colleagues at Tokyo National University, he set about measuring brain volumes of a thousand people of different ages and varying oupations. Computer technology enabled the researchers to obtain precise measurements of the volume of the front and side sections of the brain, whi

34、ch relate to in _ect (智能 ) and emotion, and deter-mine the hu _n character. ( The rear section of the brain, which controls functions like eating and breathing, does not contract with age, and one can continue living without in _ectual or emotional faculties (功能). Contraction of front and side parts

35、-as _lls _ off-was observed in some subjects in their thirties, but it was still not evident in some sixty-and-seventy-year-olds. Matsuzawa concluded from his tests that there is a _ remedy to the contraction nor _lly associated with age-using the head. The findings show in general terms that contra

36、ction of the brain begins sooner in people in the country than in the towns. Those least at risk, says Matsuzawa, are lawyers, followed by university professors and doctors. White collar workers doing routine work in gover _ent offi _s are, however, as likely to have shrinking brains as the farm wor

37、ker, bus driver and shop assistant. Matsuzawas findings show that thinking can prevent the brain from shrinking. Blood must circulate properly in the head to supply the fresh oxygen the brain _lls need. The best way to _intain good blood circulation is through using the brain, he says. Think hard an

38、d engage in conversation. Don t rely on pocket calculators. 46. The team of doctors wanted to find out _. A why _rtain people age sooner than others B how to _ke people live longer C the size of _rtain people s brains D which people are most in _igent 47. On what are their research findings based? A

39、 A survey of farmers in northern Japan. B Tests performed on a thousand old people. C The study of brain volumes of different people. D The latest development of puter technology. 48.

A something to be considered B branches of knowledge stu _d C persons chosen to be stu _d in an experiment D any member of a state

Text 2 Television has changed the lifestyle of people in every industrialized country in the world. In the United States, where sociologists have

42、stu _d the effects, some interesting observations have been _de. Television, although not essential, has bee an important part of most people s lives. It alters people s ways of seeing the world; in _ny ways, it supports arid sustains (维持) modern life. Television has bee a baby-sitter, an introdu _r

43、 of conversations, the _jor tran _itter of culture, a keeper of tradition. Yet when what can be seen on TV in one day is critically _yzed, it bees evident that television is not a teacher but a sustainer; the poor quality of programming does not elevate (提高 ) people into greater understanding, but r

44、ather _intains and encourages the life as it exists. The pri _ry reason for the lack of quality in American television is related to both the history of TV programming development and the economics of TV. Television in America began with the radio. Radio panies and their sponsors first experimented

45、with television. Therefore, the close relationship which the advertisers had with radio programs became the system for American TV. Sponsors not only paid money for time within programs, but _ny actually produ _d the programs. Thus, in American society, television is pri _rily con _rned with reflect

46、ing and attracting society rather than experimenting with new ideas. Advertisers want to attract the largest viewing au _n _ possible. To do so requires that the programs be entertaining rather than educational, attractive rather than challenging. Television in America today re _ins, to a large exte

47、nt, with the same organization and standards as it had thirty years ago. The hope for further development and true achievement toward improving society will require a change in the entire system. 51. Aording to the author American television is poor in quality because _. A advertisers are interested

48、 in experimenting with new ideas B it is still at an early stage of development, pared with the radio C the programs have to be developed in the interests of the sponsors for economic reasons D it is controlled by radio panies 52. The second paragraph is _inly about_. A TV as the sustainer of Americ

49、an life B TV as the _jor tran _itter of culture C the educational effect of TV on society D the strong influen _ and the poor quality of American TV 53. In the author s view American TV should _. A be critical but entertaining B be creative and educational C change with the development of society D

50、attract as _ny viewers as possible 54. The author believes that television in the United States has bee important to most people because _. A it promotes family unity B it helps them develop their speaking ability C it attracts their life in _ny ways D it challenges society 55. The author s attitude

51、 towards American television is _. A critical B praising C doubtful D sympathetic Text 3 The aim of the teacher is to get his pupils as quickly as possible over the period in which each printed symbol is looked at for its shape, and arrive at the stage when the pupil looks at words a phrases, for th

52、eir meaning, almost without noticing the shapes of these separate letters. When a good reader is at work, he does not look at letters, nor even at words, one by or however quickly; he takes in the meaning of two, three, or four words at a time, in a single moment. Watch carefully the eyes of a perso

53、n who is reading, and it will be seen that they do not travel _oothly along the lines of print, but they move by jumps separated by very short stops. The eyes a very good reader move quickly, taking long jumps and _ very short halts (停顿 ); the eyes of a poor reader move more slowly, taking only shor

54、t jumps and stopping longer at each halt. Some times, when he meets a difficulty, he even goes backwards to see again what has already be looked at on _. The teacher 9 task is therefore clear: it is to train his pupils to take in several words at a glan _ (one eye jump) and remove the ne _ssity forg

55、oing backwards to read something a second time. This shows at on _ that letter-by-letter, or syllable-by-syllable (音节) , or word-by-word reading, with the finger pointing to the word, carefully fixing each one in turn, is wrong. It is wrong because such a method ties the pupil s eye down to a very short jump. Moreover, a very. short jump too short to provide any meaning or sense; and it will be found that having struggled with three four words separately, the pupil has to look at them again, all together and in one group, in order get the meaning of the whole phras
