The problem is, as much as Ive enjoyed these books, I dont really remember reading any o
22、f them. Its maddening and, sorry to say, not all that unusual for a brain at middle age: I dont just forget whole books, but movies I just saw, breakfasts I just ate, and the names I was told.Indeed, aging brains, even in the middle years, fall into whats called the default mode, during which the mi
23、nd wanders off and begin daydreaming. Given all this, the question arises, can an old brain learn, and then remember what it learns? Over the past years, scientists have looked deeper into how brains age and confirmed that they continue to develop through and beyond middle age. Many long held views,
24、 including the one that 40 percent of brain cells are lost, have been overturned. What is filled into your head may not have disappeared, but has simply been stored in the folds of your neurons (神经元).Recently, researchers have found even more positive news. The brain, as it goes through middle age,
25、gets better at recognizing the central idea, the big picture. If kept in good shape, the brain can continue to build pathways that help its owner recognize patterns and, as a consequence, see significance and even solutions much faster than a young person can. The trick is finding ways to keep brain
26、 connections in good condition and to grow more of them. “Theres a place for information,” says Kathleen Taylor, a professor at St. Marys College of California, “We need to know stuff. But we need to move beyond that and challenge our understanding of the world. If you always hang around with those
27、you agree with and read things that agree with what you already know, youre not going to wrestle with your built brain connections.”Such stretching is exactly what scientists say best keeps a brain in tune: get out of the comfort zone to push and enrich your brain. Do anything from learning a foreig
28、n language to taking a different route to work.46. The text is mainly to tell people _.A. how to train the aging brain B. the problems with aging brainC. the importance of learning a languageD. the middle-aged have a good memory47. Whats the function of the first paragraph?A. To sum up the whole tex
29、t. B. To introduce the topic.C. To help readers understand better.D. To give the main idea of the text.48. Over time, scientists have found that _. A. humans memory may become poorer and poorerB. humans brains stop developing at middle ageC. the middle-aged see importance and solutions fasterD. the
30、middle-aged appreciate pictures better than the young49. The underlined part “wrestle with” probably means _.A. throw somebody to the groundB. move something large and heavyC. hold something with difficultyD. struggle to overcome something50. According to the author, we can keep our aging brains in
31、tune by _. A. changing your job frequently B. learning a foreign language C. looking at the world from a new view D. sticking to our former ideas of the worldsj.fjjy.orgIn English the spelling of words does not always represent the sound. So people say /rait/ but spell it right or write, or even rit
32、e. Combinations of letters may be pronounced in many ways. And some words just seem to have too many letters.For Americans things are a little bit easier, thanks to the work of Noah Webster, a teacher who graduated from Yale University in 1778. As a young man, he had fought against the British in th
33、e American War of Independence, and he felt that written English in the newly independent United States should have a distinctive American look.So he began his work on American English. His first book, The Elementary Spelling Book, suggested simplifying the spelling of English words. The book was ex
34、tremely popular. By the 1850s, it was selling one million copies a year, making it one of the most popular school books ever. 51. What is the text mainly about? A. Webster and his best sellers.B.

39、, the digital age might make animal actors unnecessary. The new film “Dolphin Tale” tells about a dolphin that loses her tail because of an injury from a crab-trap.A doctor provides her with an artificial tail that saves her life.

40、is a real dolphin that lost her tail. The American Humane Society worked with the movies makers to make sure Winter stayed safe and healthy during filming. The animal protection group does this for all animal actors in America.A thick book of rules and guidelines tells Hollywood moviemakers how to t
41、reat animals.Karen Rosa leads the American Humane Societys film and television group. He said, “Everything from the smallest insect to the largest mammal shall be protected.
