Time the exercise right and you could boost your ability to remember something new. Thats the finding of a new study.But it all comes down to timing. To lock up the new information, start burning those calories roughly four hours after you took in the new information. Thats according to researchers at an institute on brain, cognition and behavior. Its at Radboud Universitys Medical Center, in Nijmegen, the Netherlands. Eelco van Dongen and his colleagues shared their new findings in the June 16 Current Biology.This precisely timed memory trick comes from tests with 72 people. Each learned the location of 90 objects on a computer screen. Afterward, some of the recruits watched relaxing nature videos. Others worked up a sweat on stationary bikes, alternating between hard and easy pedaling for 35 minutes. Their workouts came either soon after the cram session or four hours later.Two days later they were tested again. Those who remembered the objects sites best were the people who had waited four hours after their learning session before pedaling. Among those who remembered sites correctly, the four-hour delay before biking also led to more consistent activity in an area important for memory. Its known as the hippocampus (海馬區(qū)). The consistent activity here suggests that the memories had been strong, the scientists say.Van Dongens team does not yet know how exercise works its memory magic. They do, however, have a guess. Aerobic exercise sparks the creation of several important chemicals in the brain. One is a protein (蛋白質(zhì)) known as BDNF. The other is dopamine (DO-puh-meen). It can help relay messages between nerve cells. These two molecules may help solidify memories by rewiring links between brain cells, the researchers suspect.24. Why are we suggested to get off the couch and do exercise?A. Its good for our health.B. Its good for learning new things.C. Its good for our memories.D. Its good for our ability.25. The best way to lock up the new information is _A. to do sports as soon as possible.B. to do sports fours hours after taking in new information. C. to see some nature videos.D. to do sports for four hours.26. Which is NOT right about the experiment?A. 72 people took part in the experiment.B. There are 90 objects on the screen.C. They all had to do riding for 35 minutes.D. They were tested again two days later.27. How does exercise work its memory magic?A. By the hippocampus.B. No one knows.C. By a protein known as BDNF.D. By a protein known as dopamine.CBetty Friedan is called the mother of the modern womens liberation movement. Her famous book, The Feminine Mystique (女性迷思), changed America. Some people say it changed the world. It has been called one of the most influential nonfiction books of the twentieth century.Fifty years ago, life for women in American was very different from today. Few parents urged their daughters to become lawyers or doctors. Female workers doing the same jobs as men earned less money. Women often lost their jobs when they had a baby.Betty Friedan was born in 1921 in Illinois. She attended Smith College in Massachusetts. She finished her studies in psychology in 1942. After college she attended the University of California to continue her studies. But her boyfriend did not want her to get an advanced degree. He apparently felt threatened by her success. So Betty left California and her boyfriend. She moved to New York City and worked as a reporter for newspapers.In 1947, Betty married Carl Friedan. They had a child. When Berry Friedan became pregant for the second time, she was expelled from her job. After that she had to work as an independent reporter for magazines. But her editors often rejected her attempts to write about subjects of women.In 1957, her class at Smith College gathered for the fifteenth anniversary of their graduation. Friedan prepared an opinion study for the women about their lives. Most who took part in the study did not work outside their homes and were not satisfied with their life. Friedan completed more studies afterwards. The result was her book, The Feminine Mystique, published in 1963.It was a huge success. It has sold more than three million copies. More women began working outside the home. More women also began studying traditionally male subjects like law, medicine and engineering. Betty Friedan died on February fourth, 2006. 28. What can we know about the book The Feminine Mystique?A. It has changed the world.B. It is thought highly of by people.C. It tells a story about Betty Friedan.D. It is one of the best books in America.29. What can we infer from the second paragraph?A. Women in America can be treated relatively fair now.B. There were no women doctors in America 50 years ago.C. Women could get the same jobs as men did at that time.D. Women had to quit their babies if they wanted to work.30. Why did Bettty Friedan leave California according to the passage?A. Because she could not find a suitable job there.B. Because her boyfriend refused her progress.C. Because she wanted to gain higher education.D. Because the 15th anniversary of her graduation was celebrated.31. The underlined word “expelled” can be replaced by _?A. promoted.B. blamed.C. supportedD. firedDConsiderable advances have been made in machine translation that uses artificial intelligence, to the point that it now provides the average English skill level of a universary graduate. How much might machines be able to achieve in the future? For what purpose, and to what extent, should the Japanese develop their English skills?Unitl now, machine translation has been used in place of a dictionary when reading and writing English , but it hasnt been usable to comprehend or compose larger texts.Machine translation using AI made its first appearance in autumn last year, and from my point of view as a translator, its not uncommon for English compositions produced by such machine translation to be better than those produced by unaided Japanese students.However, it also has weak points. It cant check for mistranslations, mistakes or languages it doesnt understand. The accuracy of AI translation is high for relatively formal texts, but it cant be used for things like more casual texts, conversational text within novels, and song lyrics. Further, it does not translate with a firm grasp of the meaning of the text that it is translating.For example, translations such as “I was born in 2001, and my younger sister was born in 2000” can occur.Why do we currently teach English to all Japanese children? I think there are two answers to that.The first reason is to build character: English for general education. By gaining an understanding of overseas politics, economics, society and culture, and drawing comparisons with Japan, they can come to understand Japan better. Similarly, they can understand the Japanese language more deeply by comparing it with English.The second reason is that English is useful. It has practical uses, and allows global communication. There are a wide variety of business uses for English, and it can also be used to communicate with foreigners visiting Japan. It further allows people to gather information from overseas reports. Ever since the Meiji period (明治時(shí)期) the original and main aim of Japanese people learning English has been to learn about overseas technologies.32. What is the disadvantage of machine translation?A. It can provide the average English skill.B. It can be used as a normal dictionary.C. It can be used to translate English.D. It can not be used in some longer texts.33. Why does the author suggest that all Japanese children learn English?A. Because English can help children learn Chinese and Japanese well. B. Because the author himself is an English teacher in a school.C. Because learning English can make Japanese children more knowledgeable.D. Because learning English is a tradition in Japan.34. What was the first aim for Japanese to learn English?A. To learn about foreign technologies.B. To talk about Japan with foreigners.C. To pass all kinds of exams.D. To communicate with AI translators.35. What is the authors attitude towards learning English?A. Its no use learning English in modern timesB. Its enough to use a machine to help translate English.C. It is of great importance for people to learn English.D. It is the translators duty to learn English.第二節(jié)（共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分）根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)，選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。Over the last few year, I have discovered that one of my favorite things to do in my free time is to volunteer.
