But an interesting new study asks whether the apparent cognitive benefits fro

11、m exercise are real or just a placebo effect that is, if we think we will be “smarter” after exercise, do our brains respond accordingly? The answer has significant implications for any of us hoping to use exercise to keep our minds sharp throughout our lives.While many studies suggest that exercise

12、 may have cognitive benefits, recently some scientists have begun to question whether the apparently beneficial effects of exercise on thinking might be a placebo effect. So researchers at Florida State University in Tallahassee and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign decided to focus on

13、expectations, on what people anticipate that exercise will do for thinking. If peoples expectations jibe (吻合) closely with the actual benefits, then at least some of those improvements are probably a result of the placebo effect and not of exercise.For the new study, which was published last month i

14、n PLOS One, the researchers recruited 171 people through an online survey system, they asked half of these volunteers to estimate by how much a stretching and toning regimens (拉伸運(yùn)動) performed three times a week might improve various measures of thinking. The other volunteers were asked the same ques

15、tions, but about a regular walking program.In actual experiments, stretching and toning program generally have little if any impact on peoples cognitive skills. Walking, on the other hand, seems to substantially improve thinking ability.But the survey respondents believed the opposite, estimating th

16、at the stretching and toning program would be more beneficial for the mind than walking. The estimates of benefits from walking were lower.These data, while they do not involve any actual exercise, are good news for people who do exercise. “The results from our study suggest that the benefits of aer

17、obic exercise are not a placebo effect,” said Cary Stothart, a graduate student in cognitive psychology at Florida State University, who led the study.If expectations had been driving the improvements in cognition seen in studies after exercise, Mr. Stothart said, then people should have expected wa

18、lking to be more beneficial for thinking than stretching. They didnt, implying that the changes in the brain and thinking after exercise are physiologically genuine.The findings are strong enough to suggest that exercise really does change the brain and may, in the process, improve thinking, Mr. Sto

19、thart said. That conclusion should encourage scientists to look even more closely into how, at a molecular level, exercise remodels the human brain, he said. It also should encourage the rest of us to move, since the benefits are, it seems, not imaginary, even if they are in our head.1、Which of the

20、following about the placebo effect is TRUE according to the passage?AIt occurs during exercise.BIt has cognitive benefits.CIt is just a mental reaction.DIt is a physiological response.2、Why did the researchers at the two universities conduct the research?ATo discover the placebo effect in the exerci

21、se.BTo prove the previous studies have a big drawback.CTo test whether exercise can really improve cognition.DTo encourage more scientists to get involved in the research.3、What can we know about the research Cary Stothart and his team carried out?AThey employed 171 people to take part in the actual

22、 exercise.BThe result of the research removed the recent doubt of some scientists.CThe participants thought walking had a greater impact on thinking ability.DTheir conclusion drives scientists to do research on the placebo effect.4、What might be the best title for the passage?AIs it necessary for us

23、 to take exercise?BHow should people exercise properly?CWhat makes us smarter during exercise?DDoes exercise really make us smarter?22（8分） College graduation eventually means taking much of your attention in your first job search.This process can be challenging, especially for those students who had

24、 second thoughts about their chosen major and intended career pathor those who majored in a field not directly connected to a specific career. If you are in one of these groups, fear not! Although your major, coursework, and academic performance are relevant to landing a job, they are not the only d

25、eciding factors on where you can work. So, just how important is your major to your job search? Some majors are tied directly to specific career fields. For example, if you wish to become a teacher, you will likely have needed to complete an education program and eventually sit for a licensing exam.

26、 The same applies to majors in nursing. If you did not complete an accredited nursing program, you wont be able to take the nursing licensure exam. In these cases, successfully completing a specific major is crucial to landing a job in the matching field.Other majors, however, are closely related to

27、 career paths but dont necessarily require a degree in the area. For example, students who majored in finance, math, or statistics may also have the necessary skills to be hired as an accountant. Although social work majors are most prepared to provide case management services to struggling populati

28、ons, students who majored in psychology or sociology can be just as qualified. Lastly, there are many industries, such as professional sales, education (non-teaching positions), insurance, and customer service management, which hire new graduates from several more majors, looking for more generalize

29、d requirements. They may simply want to know the student has completed his or her bachelors degree, which demonstrates college-level math and writing, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.Hopefully, as a college student, you were able to do more than just attend classes. Your non-academic e

30、xperiences can be very influential on your future career as well. Did you work during college, volunteer, or participate in a club or organization? If so, and if you enjoyed these activities, seek out related careers. If you volunteered with a non-profit organization such as a homeless or domestic v

31、iolence shelter, seek out positions in social services related to case management or victim advocacy(辯護(hù)). You may qualify for a position regardless of your major.Although it often seems like your college major alone determines your career fate, this just isnt the case. It may influence it, but there

32、 are other factors that influence your career options as well. If you dont know what career options to consider based on your major, talk to your faculty or academic advisor. You may be surprised at what opportunities await!1、To be a customer service manager, college graduates_.Aneed to have related

33、 qualitiesBshould pass a licensing examCare required to major in insuranceDmust have relevant experiences2、What is probably the best title for the passage?AMajor Ups Your CareerBWhy Your College Major MattersCHow Important Your Major Is to Your JobDMajor VS Career: Which Is Right for You3、The writer

But what to do if you dont quite know where you fit into this world and youre tired of carrying that burden alone?I answered strangers questions on life puzzles at the entrance to the New

36、 York City subway at 57th and 8th. A group of strangers had stopped by because they were carrying around some deep, meaningful questions that had long gone unanswered, like “why cant I be happier in my life?”And then I spotted her, who would be my toughest questioner of the day. She was about 6 year

37、s old and held her mothers hand as she craned (伸長脖子) her neck to stare at us. Her mother stopped, but the girl hesitated. “Its OK,” I offered. “Do you have a question?” The girl smiled at her mother, then let go of her hand to walk over towards us. She looked me dead in the eye and said: “How do I k

38、now Im real?”Suddenly I was back in graduate school. Should I talk about the French philosopher Rene Descartes to prove our existence, with the phrase “I think, therefore I am?” Or, mention English philosopher G. E. Moore and his famous “here is one hand, here is the other,” to prove the existence o

39、f the external world? But then the answer came to me. I remembered that the most important part of philosophy was feeding our sense of wonder. “Close your eyes,” I said. She did. “Well, did you disappear?” She smiled and shook her head, then opened her eyes. “Congratulations, youre real.”She grinned

40、 (露齒而笑) broadly and walked over to her mother, who looked back at us and smiled.1、Why did the author show up at the entrance of the subway?ATo take the subway.BTo look for strangers help.CTo offer advice on life puzzles.DTo help strangers carry their bags.2、What made the little girl stare at the aut

Drinking too much will cause 7,100 cancer deaths a year by 2035, a rise of 13 percent on the present rate. A study by Sheffield University and Cancer Research UK shows t

43、hat alcohol will cost the NHS(National Health Service) 53billion over the next ten years including 2 billion on cancer.Although alcohol is known to cause many types of cancer including breast and throat most people dont realize the relation between alcohol and cancer. A survey of 2,100 Britons by th

44、e researchers earlier this year found nine in ten did not associate drinking with cancer. The researchers used a computer model to work out the numbers of alcohol-related cancer deaths, hospital admissions(入院)and total costs to NHS over the next 20 years.The study shows that a fifth of men and 1 in

45、10 women have alcohol every dayand many of these are middle-aged and middle class. Researchers are very worried about this group as they believe cancer may be caused by drinking over long periods. The study shows that even if the expense stays as it is, alcohol-related cancer deaths will rise from 6

46、,299 in 2015 to 7,097 in 2034. Alcohol will lead to 891, 299 hospital admissions, up from 802, 118 in 2015, and 65, 005 will be caused by cancer.Earlier this year Chief Medical Officer Dame Sally Davies studied carefully the alcohol guidelines(指導(dǎo)方針)for the first time in thirty years. She told people

47、 there was no safe level of drinking and advised them to drink no more than 14 units a week. But researchers say this guidance isnt enough and want the government to increase a little price per unit of alcohol.1、What can we learn from the text?AFewer people will die of cancer in the futureBAlcohol w
