We put the pictures around our hometown-in parks, by beaches, and along roads. We wanted to make people understand that dropping butts hurts the environment.

14、Most smokers dont think that dropping butts hurts the earth. But it does! All rubbish does. Later, we wrote to companies and asked them for money to help us. We used the money to buy ashtrays to give smokers. We wanted smokers to carry the ashtrays with them so they didnt have to drop butts. At the

15、moment, we are trying to get cigarette companies to put an ashtray in each pack of cigarettes. Some companies want to do it.Many people have started to join our group since it began.

21、 that China would allow two children for every couple.

Why does China decide to relax the policy now?In fact, China began relaxing the policy in

22、 January, 2014, allowing couples to have a second baby if the mother or father was an only child. The change was thought as a major liberalization (解放) of the family planning of over thirty years.

You know that thrill(兴 奋 )you get when listening to your favorite mus

36、ic?That exciting feeling when you hear your favorite songs?According to a recent study，it seems the same thing can happen while you are reading，but not with every kind of text. This opens up interesting questions around how music，reading and emotions are connected in the brain.The study“ We decided

37、we would do a comparison between four or five different kinds of texts to see how the brain reacted，”explains Adam Zeman，a scientist. “ The participants (参 与 者 )lay in an MRI scanner reading the texts，and then we compared brain activity for those five texts.”The texts ranged (涉 及 )from deadly boring

38、 ones to highly exciting ones，including the Highway Code，parts from novels，and poems.So what happened in the participants brains while they were reading?Emotional reactionAs the researchers observed，participants found some texts more emotional than others. When reading these emotional texts，there wa

39、s higher activity in brain areas related to pleasure and rewardthe same areas related to the thrill we get when we listen to music. As Zeman says，“ it perfectly shows that the emotional reaction to literature(文 学 )and to music has quite a bit in common. So it doesnt seem to matter whether you are li

40、stening or reading if you get a thrill. That was one quite strong finding.”Introspection(内 省 )There were more interesting findings. Reading poetry is often considered an activity that requires us to use the brain，but did the study find any truth of this?When the participants were reading poems，the t

41、eam found there was more activity in a particular group of brain areas called the Default Network. “ These areas seem to be related to things we do with our minds when we are resting，like thinking about whats happened to us recently，thinking about whats going to happen in the near future，about other

42、 people，and that network seems to be more strongly related to poetry than with other texts，”explains Zeman. This connection between poetry and introspection could be the subject of further research.ConclusionsThe study shows that the different texts activate different areas of our brains when we rea

43、d. Zeman says，“ the study did support what we thought:reaction to literature was going to be a bit like the one to music in terms of emotion. We felt that we ended up with a great deal of unanswered questions which we hope somebody will continue to ask.”1What did the research try to find out?AHow mu
