Losing weight comes with a lot of health benefits—including making your brain sharper. Yes, it turns out that overweight may damage cognitive functions (认知功能) such as memory and attention. There have been few studies of overweight and cognitive functioning, possibly because it is generally believed that it is not a primary risk cause for poor cognitive performance. Losing weight, therefore, may help improve these mental functions, according to a new research led by John Gunstad, assistant professor of psychology at Kent State University. Growing evidence suggests that being fat is linked to cognitive deficits (缺陷). So Gunstad and his team guessed that losing weight might improve mental function. For their study, they measured memory and attention in a group of 150 overweight participants, some of whom had some kind of operation for weight loss and some did not. All of the volunteers completed mental skills tests to assess their abilities of memory and attention at the beginning of the study, and again 12 weeks later. To begin with, about 24% of the patients showed damaged learning and 23% showed signs of poor memory when tested. At the end of the study, those who had lost weight after operation improved their scores into the average or above average range for cognitive functions. Scores for the volunteers who didn’t lose weight dropped even further. The study helped Gunstad to find out whether losing weight had any effect on mental function. Now that he’s seen the positive effect that weight loss can have on memory and attention, he says he will next study those who choose to lose weight by the traditional way—eating healthier and getting more active. He expects that losing weight in this way will have a similarly positive effect on the brain. “If we can improve the condition with operations, then we can probably produce the same change with behavioral weight loss as well,” he says. 【1】There is less research on overweight and cognitive functions because researchers ________. A.believe overweight only affects our body B.have focused on ways to sharpen people’s mind C.do not consider overweight a main cause for low cognitive ability D.are clear about the relation between weight and mental functions 【2】The result of Gunstad’s study shows that ________. A.losing weight has little effect on people’s memory B.losing weight can improve people’s mental functions C.overweight people are likely to have psychology problems D.overweight people’s abilities of concentration differ greatly 【3】What is Gunstad planning to prove next in his research? A.Slim people are smarter than overweight people. B.Healthy diet is better than exercise in losing weight. C.Traditional ways of losing weight are better than operation. D.Overweight people will get smarter by taking more exercise. 【4】Which of the following is the best title for the text? A.Body Weight and Health B.Losing Weight by Operation C.Ways to Improve Mental Functions D.Losing Weight to Sharpen Your Mind

In a room at Texas Children Cancer Center in Houston, eight-year-old Simran Jatar lay in bed with a drip (点滴) above her to fight her bone cancer. Over her bald (秃的) head, she wore a pink hat that matched her clothes. But the third grader’s cheery dressing didn’t mask her pain and weary eyes. Then a visitor showed up. “Do you want to write a song?” asked Anita Kruse, 49, rolling a cart equipped with an electronic keyboard, a microphone and speakers. Simran stared. “Have you ever written a poem?” Anita Kruse continued. “Well, yes,” Simran said. Within minutes, Simran was reading her poem into the microphone. “Some bird soaring through the sky,” she said softly. “Imagination in its head…” Anita Kruse added piano music, a few warbling (鸣, 唱) birds, and finally the girl’s voice. Thirty minutes later, she presented Simran with a CD of her first recorded song. That was the beginning of Anita Kruse’s project, Purple Songs Can Fly, one that has helped more than 125 young patients write and record songs. As a composer and pianist who had performed at the hospital, Kruse said that the idea of how she could help “came in one flash”. The effect on the kids has been great. One teenage girl, curling (蜷缩) in pain in her wheelchair, stood unaided to dance to a hip-hop song she had written. A 12-year-old boy with Hodgkin’s disease who rarely spoke surprised his doctors with a song he called I Can Make It. “My time with the kids is heartbreaking because of the severity of their illnesses,” says Anita Kruse. “But they also make you happy, when the children are smiling, excited to share their CD with their families.” Simran is now an active sixth grader and cancer-free. From time to time, she and her mother listen to her song, Always Remembering, and they always remember the “really sweet and nice and loving” lady who gave them a shining moment in the dark hour. 【1】Simran Jatar lay in bed in hospital because ________. A.most of her hair had fallen out B.she was receiving treatment for cancer C.she felt depressed and quit from school D.she was suffering from a pain in her back 【2】What do we know about Anita Kruse’s project? A.It helps young patients record songs. B.It is supported by singers and patients. C.It aims to replace the medical treatment. D.It offers patients chances to realize their dreams. 【3】What does the case of a 12-year-old boy suggest? A.Most children are naturally fond of music. B.He was brave enough to put up performance. C.The project has positive effect on young patients. D.Singing is the best way to treat some illnesses. 【4】What is probably the best title for the passage? A.Purple Songs Can Fly B.Singing Can Improve Health C.A Shining Moment in Life D.A Kind Woman—Anita Kruse

What is the first thing you notice when you walk into a shop? The products displayed (展示) at the entrance? Or the soft background music? But have you ever notice the smell? Unless it is bad, the answer is likely to be no. But while a shop’s scent may not be outstanding compared with sights and sounds, it is certainly there. And it is providing to be an increasing powerful tool in encouraging people to purchase. A brand store has become famous for its distinctive scent which floats through the fairly dark hall and out to the entrance, via scent machines. A smell may be attractive but it may not just be used for freshening air. One sports goods company once reported that when it first introduced scent into its stores, customers’ intension to purchase increased by 80 percent. When it comes to the best shopping streets in Pairs, scent is just as important to a brand’s success as the quality of its window displays and goods on sales. That is mainly because shopping is a very different experience to what it used to be. Some years ago, the focus for brand name shopping was on a few people with sales assistants’ disproving attitude and don’t-touch-what-you-can’t-afford displays. Now the rise of electronic commerce (e-commerce) has opened up famous brands to a wider audience. But while e-shops can use sights and sounds, only bricks-and-mortar stores (实体店) can offer a full experience from the minute customers step through the door to the moment they leave. Another brand store seeks to be much more than a shop, but rather a destination. And scent is just one way to achieve this. Now a famous store uses complex man-made smell to make sure that the soft scent of baby powder floats through the kid department, and coconut (椰子) scent in the swimsuit section. A department store has even opened a new lab, inviting customers on a journey into the store’s windows to smell books, pots and drawers, in search of their perfect scent. 【1】According to the passage, what is an increasingly powerful tool in the success of some brand store? A.Friendly assistant. B.Unique scents. C.Soft background music. D.Attractive window display. 【2】E-shops are mentioned in the passage to ______. A.show the advantages of brick-and-mortar stores B.urge shop assistants to change their attitude C.push stores to use sights and sounds D.introduce the rise of e-commerce 【3】The underlined word “destination” in Paragraph 5 means ______. A.a platform that exhibits goods B.a spot where travelers like to stay C.a place where customers love to go D.a target that a store expects to meet 【4】The main purpose of the passage is to ______. A.compare and evaluate B.examine and assess C.argue and discuss D.inform and explain
