Is there a way to quickly recall information just before taking an exam? Walking backward may be a good way to solve the problem. Scientists from the University of Roehampton in the UK said this activity can help people improve their short-term memory. Researchers asked 114 volunteers to watch a video. After watching the video, volunteers were divided into three groups. One group was told to walk 10 meters forward. The second group walked 10 meters backward. The third group stood in one place. All three groups were then asked 20 questions about what they saw in the video. The scientists found that the backward-walking group got two more answers correct than the other two groups. This suggests that the connection between time and space is important for how our brains form memory. "Time is really expressed by space, " Study leader Aleksandar Aksentijevic told the Daily Mail. When you walk backward, you see things from a different point compared to walking forward. This difference helps people recall things that happened in the past. And walking backward is not just good for our brains. It is also good for the other parts of our body. Compared to walking forward, walking backward is more challenging. This can help us improve our health. Walking backward uses more energy in a short time and burns more calories (卡路里）. Walking backward also puts less stress on our knees. It could be helpful for people who often have pain in their knees. This might be why many old people like walking backward. 【1】How many people were in each group when the volunteers were divided into groups? A.10. B.20. C.38. D.57. 【2】What's the writer's opinion of walking backward? A.Walking backward can help you deal with nervousness before an exam. B.Walking backward is good for old people's knees. C.Walking backward uses less energy in a short time. D.Walking backward can help people predict the future. 【3】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A.The three groups got about the same number of questions right. B.Walking backward can look at things from the the same point. C.Walking forward is more challenging than walking backward. D.Practicing walking backward can improve your short-term memory. 【4】What's the main idea of the passage? A.Some ways to quickly recall information. B.Walking backward is good for people. C.The difference between walking backward and forward. D.Time and space are important for forming memories in the brain. |

In any environment: (forest, mountain, water—you always see the big animals first: birds , mammals ( 哺乳动物), fish. But under your feet, on land or in the water, there are many smaller organisms (生物体) : insects, tiny plants, tiny sea lives and ground dwellers (居民) are “the heart of life on Earth”, says naturalist E.O. Wilson. Without them, our world would change completely. Most organisms on Earth live on the ground or just below it. Here they are part of an important cycle. Plants and animals falls to the ground when they die. Later, tiny insects and other organisms break down the dead plants and animal materials. This process finally returns nutrients to the soil and give plants energy. Plants can then help to stay a healthy environment for humans and other animals. Even though most ground organisms are of great importance, scientists know very little about them. To learn more, photographer David Littschwager went to different places around the world, including a forest, a river, a mountain, and a coral reef (珊瑚礁). In each place, he put a green 12-inch (30 cm) cube (立方) on the ground or in the water. Then he and his team counted and photographed the organisms that lived in or moved through the cube. Often they discovered hundreds of them, sometimes even one thousand of one meter-in size. “It was like finding little treasure”, he says. 【1】Where do most organisms live? A.In the water or on the land. B.In the sea or on the land. C.In the mountain or in the sea. D.On the ground or below it. 【2】What does the underline word “nutrients” (in Paragraph 2) mean? A.Something that can be dead. B.Something that can be bought. C.Something that can help animals and plants grow. D.Something that can be disappeared. 【3】What can we infer from the passage? A.People think organisms are unimportant and usually ignore them. B.Organisms break down the dead plants and let them return to nutrients. C.David regards ground organisms as little treasure. D.Animals can help to stay a healthy environment for humans and other animals. 【4】Which would be the best title for the passage? A.Human and nature. B.Animals and plants. C.How to stay a healthy environment. D.Small but important elements of nature. |

“Don’t tell anyone”. we hear these words when someone tells a secret to us. 【1】 We’re often tempted to (忍不住的) “spill the beans”, (说漏嘴) even if we regret it later. According to Asim Shah, professor in the Menninger Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Baylor College of Medicine, US, keeping a secret may well “become a burden(负担)”. 【2】 An earlier study, led by Anita E. Kelly, a scientist at the University of Notre Dame, US, suggested that keeping a secret could cause stress. People entrusted (受委托的) with secrets can suffer from depression, anxiety, and body aches, reported the Daily Mail. 【3】 Shah explained that people often feel that it will help them keep a person as a friend. Another reason people share secrets is guilt over keeping it from someone close to them. A sense of distrust can develop when people who are close do not share it with each other. “Keeping or sharing secrets often puts people in a position of either gaining or losing the trust of someone,” according to Shah. He added that talkative people could let secrets slip out (泄露). But this doesn’t mean that it is a good idea only to share secrets with quiet people. 【4】 To tell such a person a secret may cause them stress, and make them talk about the secret. Shah said that to judge whether to tell someone a secret, you’d better put yourself in their position. 【5】 Shah also recommended that if you accidentally give up someone’s secret you should come clean about it. Let the person know that their secret isn’t so secret anymore. A.Keeping secrets is a burden. B.Otherwise, the God will know. C.But it can be hard to keep a secret. D.A quiet person may be someone who keeps everything inside. E.But with secrets so often getting out, why do people share them at all? F.Think about how you would feel to be told that you mustn’t give the information away. G.This is because people often have an “obsessive and anxious urge to share it with someone”. |
