10、omeone talking, they may use brain regions that are equal to those that humans use to understand what others say, the researchers found.In other words, the new study shows that the brain mechanisms(结构）involved in the process of understanding human speech are similar in dogs and humans.

11、at the brain mechanisms involved in understanding human speech are not unique to humans.To convey information through speech, people use both words and intonation (语调）, which is the way a persons voice rises and falls to express an emotion or meaning, such as praise or disapproval. Similarly, to und

12、erstand what someone is trying to say, people have to pay attention to both their words and their intonation.In the study, the researchers wanted to see whether dogs also pay attention to both words and intonation when trying to understand what a human is trying to say to them.To conduct the study,

13、the researchers looked at 13 dogs. The researchers measured the dogs brain activity with a brain scanner while the dogs listened to recordings of their trainers speaking different combinations of words and intonations.The researchers found that the dogs paid attention to both the words and intonatio

14、n when trying to understand human speech, just as humans do when they try to understand human speech. This finding means that dogs may understand both the words and the intonation that humans use when they talk to dogs.The brain scans also suggested that the dogs used the left parts of their brains

15、while trying lo understand words hut used the right parts of their brains while trying to understand intonation. Similarly, humans use the left parts of their brains while trying to understand the meanings of words and the right parts of their brains while trying to understand intonation.1、What is t

I

26、f untreated, this illness could affect everything you do. What is this illness? Depression. Serious depression requires professional treatment. Self-induced depression is something each of us can change.Everyones circumstances are different, but the causes of self-induced depression are common: low

27、self-esteem, hurtful thinking and a bad attitude.So how can we change the way we think, feel, and have a cheerful attitude?First we must look at ourselves, truly and honestly examining our motives for what we wish to accomplish. If you are dissatisfied because you feel you havent or cant do anything

28、, then one step is neededto set goals.Always start your goals relatively small and easy to attain. Think of them as sand; one grain may be insignificant(微不足道的) but as a group they form the beach. Once you have set and attained small goals for yourself, move on to slightly larger, more challenging go

29、als.It takes not just setting goals but positive thinking. How can we obtain this?There are a number of factors that can make us think negatively and one of those is diet.In my opinion, a person who eats a lot of take-out and fast food is feeding their body junk. Start by eating better foods which g

30、ive the body much NEEDED minerals. If your physical body is happy, its much easier for your mental body or “thinking ability” to be happy.Next, exercise. Half an hour a day is recommended for positive well-being. Then think about good memories you had, or generally think of things that make you smil

31、e. Remember, everything you wear costs money but to wear a smile is free.

35、u feel a little bit happier every day. While there are certainly happy memories tied up in the wedding ring you and your spouse (配偶) purchased together years ago or your teddy bear from childhood, new research finds that we typically feel calmer and experience a greater sense of well-being when we f

36、ocus on a place that reminds us of happier times rather than a thing, even if it holds great value.The report, called Places That Make Us, was conducted by National Trusts and Surrey Universitys researchers. Experts performed functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (磁共振成像) scans on 20 volunteers

37、 and conducted an online survey of 2,000 people to better understand this deep draw toward special places.“Working with leading researchers and academics, and using cutting-edge MRI brain technology, we examined how places affect people, how they become special, and why we feel a pull towards them,”

38、 explained Nino Strachey, head of research for the National Trust.The 20 volunteers were shown images of landscapes, houses, and other locations, as well as personally meaningful objects. Measuring their brain activity, the researchers found that it was the places, as opposed to the objects, that ca

39、used the brain to get the most excited.Volunteers were also interviewed at great length two times, once at home and the other time at their special place. The research made discoveries that had never known before the favorite places awoke feelings of belonging, physical and emotional safety, and an

40、intense internal pull to the place.Dr. Andy Myers weighed in on the research, saying, “For the first time we have been able to prove the physical and emotional benefits of places, far beyond any research that has been done before.”1、How was the research conducted?ABy performing MRI on 2,000 voluntee

41、rs.BBy measuring the participants, brain by MRI.CBy doing rough interviews with the participants.DBy showing meaningful objects to the participants.2、How would the author feel about the findings of the study?AIt is pioneering.

DMake fun of.4、What does the text mainly talk about?AEveryone has his way to be happy.BValuable places can make people happy.CTeddy bears are best memories for children.DMeaningful objects lead to greater well-being

43、.25（10分）The next time your brain refuses to recall a simple fact or name, be thankful. That could be a sign that your brain is getting rid of unnecessary information so that it can operate more efficiently, and help you make better decisions.The researchers say there are numerous neurobiological(神经生

44、物学的)studies conducted on how the brain stores information, a process called persistence (暂留). However, scientists also assumed that our occasional inability to recall facts was due to a are an the brain. In 2013, scientists discovered that as new neurons combine with the hippocampus(海马区)-a region of

45、 the brain that plays a significant role in learning and remembering-they overwrite old memories, making them harder to access. There is also evidence that the brain weakens or removes connections between neurons, in which memories are encoded.The scientists have a theory on why the brain spends so

46、much energy erasing memories. They say what the brain decides to forget is determined by our daily life. An example is that our brains remember phone numbers according to the need. Instead of storing this irrelevant information that our phones can store for us, our brains are freed up to store the m

47、emories that actually do matter for us. They also believe that memorizing too much detail could prevent us from making good decisions.So the next time you are unable to recall a seemingly important fact, dont be hard on yourself. Just throw it to your brains “rubbish can” to make room for informatio
