13、A research study has looked into what happens inside your brain while you read and listen to music. You know that thrill(兴 奋 )you get when listening to your favorite music?That exciting feeling when you hear your favorite songs?According to a recent study,it seems the same thing can happen while you are reading,but not with every kind of text. This opens up interesting questions around how music,reading and emotions are connected in the brain.
The study
“ We decided we would do a comparison between four or five different kinds of texts to see how the brain reacted,”explains Adam Zeman,a scientist. “ The participants (参 与 者 )lay in an MRI scanner reading the texts,and then we compared brain activity for those five texts.”The texts ranged (涉 及 )from deadly boring ones to highly exciting ones,including the Highway Code,parts from novels,and poems.
So what happened in the participants brains while they were reading?
Emotional reaction
As the researchers observed,participants found some texts more emotional than others. When reading these emotional texts,there was higher activity in brain areas related to pleasure and reward—the same areas related to the thrill we get when we listen to music. As Zeman says,“ it perfectly shows that the emotional reaction to literature(文 学 )and to music has quite a bit in common. So it doesn't seem to matter whether you are listening or reading if you get a thrill. That was one quite strong finding.”
Introspection(内 省 )
There were more interesting findings. Reading poetry is often considered an activity that requires us to use the brain,but did the study find any truth of this?When the participants were reading poems,the team found there was more activity in a particular group of brain areas called the Default Network. “ These areas seem to be related to things we do with our minds when we are resting,like thinking about what's happened to us recently,thinking about what's going to happen in the near future,about other people,and that network seems to be more strongly related to poetry than with other texts,”explains Zeman. This connection between poetry and introspection could be the subject of further research.
Conclusions
The study shows that the different texts activate different areas of our brains when we read. Zeman says,“ the study did support what we thought:reaction to literature was going to be a bit like the one to music in terms of emotion. We felt that we ended up with a great deal of unanswered questions which we hope somebody will continue to ask.”
1.What did the research try to find out?
A.How music helps us read different kinds of texts.
B.What kind of texts most people like while listening to music.
C.Why reading different texts causes different reactions in emotion.
D.Whether reading can cause similar emotional reaction like music does.
2.What did the participants do in the study?
A.They listened to music. B.They read different texts.
C.They answered many questions. D.They compared brain activities.
3.What can we learn from the study?
A.The emotional texts work better for the research.
B.Poetry reading can activate the Default Network.
C.Music helps to bring pleasure and reward.
D.People think about the past when resting.

14、Different weather makes people feel different. It influences health, intelligence(智力) and feelings.
In August, it is very hot and wet in the southern part of the United States. People there have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month. In the Northeast and the Middle West, it is very hot at some times and very cold at other times. People in these states(州) have more heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March.
The weather can also influence intelligence. For example, in a 1983 report by scientists, IQ(智商) of a group of students was very high when a very strong wind came, but after the strong wind, their IQ was 10% lower. The wind can help people have more intelligence. Very hot weather, on the other hand, can make it lower. Students in many schools of the United States often get worse on exams in the hot months of the year (July and August).
Weather also has a strong influence on people’s feelings. Winter may be a bad time for thin people. They usually feel cold during these months. They might feel unhappy during cold weather. But fat people may have a hard time in hot summer. At about 18℃, people become stronger.
Low air pressure(气压) may make people forgetful(健忘). People leave more bags on buses and in shops on low-pressure days. People feel best at a temperature of about 18℃.
Are you feeling sad, tired, forgetful, or unhappy today? It may be the weather’s problem.
1.What can cause problems on health?
A.Hot and wet weather B.A strong wind
C.Warm weather D.Low air pressure
2.A report shows that people may have more intelligence when ______ comes.

15、Having a teenager at home can be a real headache. Many teenagers smoke, wear strange hairstyle and even fight. Basically (基本上) , they are often taking risks.
Earlier studies have shown that teenagers are more likely to makeirrationaldecisions than people from any other age group, including children and adults. Is it that teenagers are too young to tell right from wrong? Not really. So what’s the reason?
According to Laurence, a teacher from a US university, the reason is that teenagers care a lot about how their peers (同龄人) view them—that is “peer influence”.
As children enter their teenage years, they spend more time with their friends and classmates, and also they care more about what they think of them. This makes teenagers make decisions without thinking about the costs.
In a test, a group of teenagers were asked to play a video driving game. When they played with their friends watching around them, they took more chances and drove more carelessly because that would increase their possibility of winning. But when they played alone, they drove more safely.
Why do peers have such a big influence on teens’ behavior?
As Laurence sees it, a teenager’s brain is like a car with a good accelerator (油门) but a weak brake (刹车). The “accelerator” is fully developed by teenage years while the “brake” is still not fully developed. When teenagers are watched by their peers, they usually push hard on the accelerator. With their weak brake, it is likely that they are going to end up in an accident. But the good news is that a violent (暴力的) teenager doesn’t necessarily become a violent adult. About two-thirds to three-quarters of violent youth grow out of it. “They get more self-controlled.”
1.What does the underlined word “irrational” in the 2nd paragraph mean?
A.Quick. B.Crazy.
C.Careful. D.Correct.
2.Why are teenagers often taking risksaccording to the text?
A.They like difficult tasks.
B.They don’t care about costs.
C.They are too young to tell right from wrong.
D.They care a lot about what their peers think of them.
3.How does Laurence explain the influence of peer influence on teens’ behavior?
A.By using a metaphor (比喻).
B.By giving examples.
C.By presenting research findings.
D.By performing an in-depth analysis (分析).
4.According to the text, with peers around them, teenagers tend to (倾向于) ______.
A.use more self-control
B.become more careful about what they do
C.perform better than when they are alone
D.focus more on short-term benefits(利益)
5.What can we learn from the text?
A.Teenagers are easy to have traffic accidents.
B.Peer influence is bad on teenagers.
C.Most of the teenagers become less violent when they grow up.
D.Teenagers shouldn’t spend all the free time with their friends.

16、Your homework habits might be affecting your grades. Are you feeling tired or bored when it comes to homework time? Are you arguing with parents about your grades? You can change the way you feel by taking better care of your mind and your body. Get the sleep you need.
Studies show that teens' natural sleeping habits are different from those of adults. This often causes less sleep among teens, since they tend to have trouble going to sleep at night, and have trouble waking in the mornings. You can avoid some of the problems that come with less sleep by changing some of your nighttime habits.
Improve your memory
A great way to improve your homework habits is to improve your memory with brain exercise. There are many theories and ideas about improving memory, but there is one mnemonic(记忆的) method that has been around since ancient times. Ancient accounts show that early Greek and Roman orators used the “loci” method of remembering long speeches and lists. You may be able to use this method to improve your memory at test time.
Fight the desire to delay
Do you get the sudden desire to feed the dog at homework time? Don't fall for it! Delay is like a little white lie we tell ourselves. We often think we'll feel better about studying later if we do something fun now, like playing with a pet, watching a TV show, or even cleaning our room. It's not true.
Avoid repetitive(重复的) stress
During text messaging, Internet surfing, and computer writing, you are using your hand muscles in all new ways, and you're very easily to be influenced by something dangerous or the repetitive stress injury. Find out how to avoid pain in your hands and neck by changing the way you sit at your computer.
