1001.There's more evidence that what's good for your heart is good for your head.A new study shows that people who run,swim or do other moderate intensity(中等強(qiáng)度)exercise have brains that look,on average,10 years younger than the brains of couch potatoes.
"Our study showed that for older people,getting moderate intensity exercise may be protective,helping them keep their brains work better," said Dr.Clinton Wright of the University of Miami,who led the study.But it's not necessarily easy.Walking,golf,bowling and yoga don't count,and people need to start before they begin showing memory loss,Wright's team reported in the journal Neurology.
The study of nearly 900 people who exercise regularly showed that 90 percent fell into the low-intensity group.These people are part of a larger group taking part in a bigger study called Northern Manhattan Study.They were asked how long and how often they exercised during the past two weeks.Five years later,they were tested for memory and thinking skills and got a brain MRI.Seven years after that,they took the memory and thinking tests again.The 10 percent who said they took part in moderate intensity exercise scored better on the tests.These included running,climbing,swimming,riding bicycles and so on.
"We found that those with moderate intensity activity had higher scores and slower decline than inactive people when comparing the results," the study team wrote.
Many studies have shown that exercise may not prevent Alzheimer's disease but may delay it.The findings fit in with a study that found two years of exercising,eating healthier food and brain training can promote people's memory function.

D.Ten people scored best on the tests.
(2)How did the study team come to the conclusion?
A.By observing people exercise.
B.By using examples.
C.By making a comparison.
D.By doing a brain MRI.
(3)What do we know from the last paragraph?
A.Exercise will definitely strengthen people's memory.
B.Alzheimer's disease may be held back by moderate intensity exercise.
C.Exercise can put off the beginning of memory decline.
D.The findings fit in with the study of healthy food.
(4)What's the best title for this passage?
A.How to keep health.
B.Ways to make your brain work better.
C.To exercise or not.
D.Moderate intensity exercises keeps your brain younger.發(fā)布:2025/1/1 12:0:1組卷:3引用:3難度:0.51002.The spa town of Cheltenham sits on the edge of the Cotswolds,in the county of Gloucester.Below is a look at four fabulous attractions that make Cheltenham such a terrific place to visit.

"When do you read?" my friend asked me.My mind took off on a fast journey through my bookshelves and piles of looks.I know some people make artsy towers and pyramids out of books,but I'm not that kind of woman.Mine are just…stacks (摞).Stacks on end tables,stacks on the floor.
When do I read?I read when I'm happy.I read when I'm bored.I read when I'm defeated.I read when I'm filled with anxiety.My self-medication for the thoughts is not exercise or alcohol,but Jane Austen.I absolutely must slow down the pace of my thoughts when living through a walk to the town Meryton in Pride and Prejudice.I read to visit places I'll never see in real life.Thank you,Vikram Seth,for making me completely involved in 1950s India.Thank you,Khaled Hosseini,for giving me a chance to see 1970s high society of New York City.I'll spend some time with Edith Wharton.I read when I'm recalling the good old days.Many of my favorite books of childhood are still my favorite books.I read when I get so addicted to an author that I want to read everything she has ever written,including her Christmas cards and grocery lists.
Of course,I didn't say any of these things to my friend.I stared at her with a blank,foolish look.
"When do I read?" I repeated.
"Yes.When do you find time?" she asked.
"When?Evenings.Bedtime.Dinnertime,if I'm eating alone.Sunday afternoons.Moments stolen here and there.And now if you'll excuse me,I have a date with Mr.Hemingway. " I said.

Some people are just doomed(注定) to be failures.That's the way some adults look at troubled kids.A bird with a broken wing will never fly as high.David was made to feel this way almost every day in school.
David was the most famous troublemaker in high school.He wasn't confident and didn't answer questions.From time to time he skipped classes and got into lots of fights.Teachers didn't want to have him again the following year.However,things gradually changed during a weekend leadership meeting.All the students at school had been invited to sign up for ACE training,a program designed to have students become more involved in their communities.
At the start of the meeting,David was literally standing outside the circle of students,against the back wall,with that"go ahead,impress me"look on his face.He didn't readily join the discussion groups.But slowly,the interactive games drew him in the discussion.David started to join them and he really had great ideas.The other students in David's group welcomed his comments.All of a sudden David felt like a part of the group.
The next day,David was very active in all the sessions.By the end of the meeting,he had joined the Homeless Project team.He knew something about poverty,hunger and hopelessness.The other students on the team were impressed with his passionate concern and ideas.They elected David co-chairman of the team.
The very first community service project organized by the Homeless Project team was to collect food for the homeless in the charge of David.But a group of teachers doubted whether this crucial beginning should be in the hands of David.The principal reminded them that the purpose of the ACE program was to uncover any positive passion that a student had and reinforce(加強(qiáng)) its practice until true change can take place.

發(fā)布:2025/1/1 12:0:1組卷:4引用:3難度:0.71007.Cities are likely to be affected by overheating,thanks to something called the urban heat island effect.Cities tend to be short of trees,which provide shade,and they are covered with black pavement,which absorbs heat from the sun.Think of how it feels to wear a dark shirt versus a white shirt on a sunny day.A black shirt absorbs light,heating you up.But a white shirt reflects light,keeping you cool.
The average temperature in a city of a million or more people can be more than 5 degrees hotter than surrounding areas.That extra 5 degrees can turn a hot day from uncomfortable to deadly.
As temperatures rise,cities will be an especially dangerous place to be during a heat wave.To protect public health,city officials are going to make the city cooler.
As part of that effort,Los Angeles is coating its roads in CoolSeal,a gray paint that keeps streets and parking lots 10 degrees cooler than black asphalt(瀝青).It will help Angelinos save money during the summer,when air conditioning sends power bills soaring.And it will save lives by lowering temperatures and improving air quality.Hot weather worsens air pollution by turning car exhaust into smog,which can make life miserable for people with asthma(哮喘)and other breathing problems.
Of course,LA will have to do more than paint over a few streets to cool off the city.Angelinos will also need to plant more trees and apply white paint to rooftops - at least those not already covered in solar panels.While LA is a pioneer of reflective streets,other cities,like New York,are already experimenting with reflective roofs or,like Melbourne,lowering the temperature by planting trees.LA is hardly alone in its effort to stay cool.
"This is an urgent challenge,and it's much bigger than one person," said Mayor Garctti in a recent statement. "Climate change is a fact of life that people in Los Angeles and cities around the world live with every day. "
(1)What may contribute to the urban heat island effect?
A.Planting more trees in the streets.
B.Applying reflective paint to rooftops.
C.Covering the streets with white paint.

(2)Which of the following may concern city officials during hot summer?
A.How to make the city cooler.
B.Where to wear a white shirt.
C.When to cut off the electricity supply.
D.Why to coat the roads with black paint.
(3)What benefit can people gain from the use of CoolSeal?
A.Increasing the indoor activities.
B.Reducing the number of cold days.
C.Promoting the sale of air conditioners.
D.Making life easier and more comfortable.
(4)What's the main idea of the passage?
