18、Education plays a key role in lifelong memory performance and risk for mental disorder, and its well documented that those with a college degree possess a cognitive（认知的） advantage over their less educated counterparts in middle and old age. Now, a large national study from Brandeis University publis

19、hed in the American Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry shows that those with less schooling can significantly make up for poorer education by frequently engaging in mental exercises such as word games, puzzles, reading, and lectures. “The lifelong benefits of higher education for memory in later life a

20、re quite impressive, but we do not clearly understand how and why these effects last so long,” said lead author Margie Lachman, a psychologist. She suggested that higher education may encourage lifelong interest in cognitive efforts, while those with less education may not engage as frequently in me

21、ntal exercises that help keep the memory agile (敏捷地). But education early in adulthood does not appear to be the only route to maintain your memory. The study found that intellectual activities undertaken regularly made a difference. “Among individuals with low education, those who are engaged in re

22、ading, writing, attending lectures, doing word games or puzzles once a week or more had memory scores similar to people with more education,” said Lachman. The study, called Midlife in the United States, assessed 3,343 men and women between the ages of 32 and 84 with a mean age of 56 years. Almost 4

23、0 percent of the participants had at least a 4-year college degree. The researchers evaluated how the participants performed in two cognitive areas, verbal memory and executive function - brain processes involved in planning, abstract thinking and cognitive flexibility. Participants were given a bat

24、tery of tests, including tests of verbal fluency, word recall, and backward counting. As expected, those with higher education said they engaged in cognitive activities more often and also did better on the memory tests, but some with lower education also did well, explained Lachman. “The findings a

25、re promising because they suggest there may be ways to level the playing field for those with lower educational achievement, and protect those at greatest risk for memory declines,” said Lachman. “Although we can not rule out the possibility that those who have better memories are the ones who take

31、os Yucatan Peninsula. They swim for an hour. Finally, they reach a large room 60 feet underground and about the size of two basketball courts. Here, they discover an upside-down human skull (the bones of a persons head). Other bones lay nearby.The team came across the skull in 2007. The divers then

32、told the Mexican government about the finding. Soon the government formed a team of scientists to look into it. The group, which included archaeologist (考古学家) Dominique Rissolo, believed that the skull belonged to someone who lived in the last ice age. At the ice ages height some twenty thousand yea

33、rs ago, sea levels dropped and new land appeared. Over time, rain and wind ate holes into some of the land.“The person may have died after entering the cave,” Rissolo says. Then, when the ice age ended some ten thousand years ago, sea levels rose. Water flooded the cave, covering the remains.Worryin

34、g that moving the skull might destroy it, scientists decided to examine it at its watery resting place. They collected information about the skull and other pieces of bones. They found that the bones belonged to a 15- to 17-year-old girl who lived at least twelve thousand years ago. The team named h

DNA tests showed that shes a direct ancestor of present-day Native Americans. Naias DNA also matches with people native to Siberia, a part of Russia. Scientists have lon

36、g thought that ancient people from this area arrived in Alaska during the last ice age. They were the first humans to live in the Americas. And Naia proves how far south they went. (Mexico is a country to the south of the US.)In 2014 the scientists decided to bring up Naias skull from the cave to pr

Yet pleasure at your own can vanish if you learn that a colleague has been given a bigger one. Indeed, if he h

40、as a reputation for slacking, you might even be outraged. Such behaviour is regarded as “all too human,” with the underlying assumption that other animals would not be capable of this finely developed sense of grievance(不满,不平). But a study by Sarah Brosnan and Frans de Waal of Emory University in At

41、lanta, Georgia, which has just been published in Nature, suggests that it is all too monkey, as well.The researchers studied the behaviour of female brown capuchin monkeys. They look cute. They are good-natured, co-operative creatures, and they share their food readily. Above all, like their female

42、human counterparts, they tend to pay much closer attention to the value of “goods and services” than males.Such characteristics make them perfect candidates for Dr. Brosnans and Dr. de Waals study. The researchers spent two years teaching their monkeys to exchange tokens for food. Normally, the monk

43、eys were happy enough to exchange pieces of rock for slices of cucumber. However, when two monkeys were placed in separate but adjoining chambers, so that each could observe what the other was getting in return for its rock, their behaviour became markedly different.In the world of capuchins, grapes

44、 are luxury goods (and much preferable to cucumbers). So when one monkey was handed a grape in exchange for her token, the second was reluctant to hand hers over for a mere piece of cucumber. And if one received a grape without having to provide her token in exchange at all, the other either tossed

45、her own token at the researcher or out of the chamber, or refused to accept the slice of cucumber. Indeed, the mere presence of a grape in the other chamber(without an actual monkey to eat it) was enough to induce resentment(愤恨)in a female capuchin.The researchers suggest that capuchin monkeys, like

46、 humans, are guided by social emotions. In the wild, they are a co-operative, group-living species. Such cooperation is likely to be stable only when each animal feels it is not being cheated. Feelings of righteous indignation(愤慨), it seems, are not the preserve of people alone. Refusing a lesser re

47、ward completely makes these feelings abundantly clear to other members of the group. However, whether such a sense of fairness evolved independently in capuchins and humans, or whether it stems from the common ancestor that the species had 35 million years ago, is, as yet, an unanswered question.361

48、、In the opening paragraph, the author introduces his topic by _.Amaking a comparisonBjustifying an assumptionCmaking a conclusionDexplaining a phenomenon1、The statement “it is all too monkey” (Last line, Paragraph I) implies that _.Aresenting unfairness is also monkeys natureBmonkeys are also outrag

49、ed by slack rivalsCmonkeys, like humans, tend to be jealous of each otherDno animals other than monkeys can develop such emotions2、Dr. Brosnan and Dr. de Waal have eventually found in their study that the monkeys _.Aprefer grapes to cucumbersBwill not be co-operative if feeling cheatedCcan be taught

50、 to exchange thingsDare unhappy when separated from others3、What can we infer from the last paragraph?AMonkeys can be trained to develop social emotions.BCooperation among monkeys remains stable only in the wild.CAnimals usually show their feelings openly as humans do.DHuman indignation evolved from

51、 an uncertain source.25（10分）Like many young people, I dreamed of growing up and becoming a successful writer one day. My first part-time job came when I was 18 years old. I was working in a paint factory. Because of the terrible smell of pain, it because normal for me to temporarily pass out during

52、my lunch time.All of my spare time was spent writing and sending stories to any publisher that would read them, dreaming that one day losing consciousness while eating my ham sandwiches would no longer be a part of my daily routine.I discovered content mills, where a writer could devote his time to

53、writing soul-destroying online copy. It provided a little pay, but I wouldnt faint. So I quit my day job. But it is difficult to work from home.

The job was simple: I complained about everything that was wrong with society and they paid me 50 for each article. A guy from the website asked if I would be in
