Easy Ways to Keep Your Brain Sharp
Everyone is forgetful, but as we age, we start to feel like our brains are slowing down a bit and that can be a very annoying thing.   小題1:   Read on for some techniques worth trying. 
1.    小題2:     
People who regularly made plans and looked forward to upcoming events had a 50 percent reduced chance of Alzheimer’s disease (早老性癡呆癥), according to a recent study.   小題3:  Something as simple as setting a goal to have a weekly coffee date with a friend will do. There’s evidence that people who have a purpose in life or who are working on long or short-term goals appear to do better. In other words, keep your brain looking forward.
2. Go for a walk.
Mildly raised glucose (葡萄糖) levels can harm the area of the brain that helps you form memories and physical activity can help get blood glucose down to normal levels. In fact, exercise produces chemicals that are good for your brain.   小題4:  
3. Learn something new.
Take a Spanish class online, join a drawing club, or learn to play cards. A study found that mental stimulation (刺激) limits the weakening effects of aging on memory and the mind. But the best thing for your brain is when you learn something new and are physically active at the same time.   小題5:   Or go dancing with your friends.
A.Focus on the future.
B.This can be especially harmful to the aged.
C.It should be something like learning gardening.
D.So take a few minutes each day to do some reading.
E. But don’t worry if your schedule isn’t filled with life-changing events.
F. Luckily, research shows there is a lot you can do to avoid those moments.

試題分析: 隨著年齡的增加,人們的大腦思維似乎越來越遲鈍。那么如何改變這種狀況呢?在本文中作者對此提出了幾點(diǎn)建議。一、制定計(jì)劃、展望未來;二、鍛煉身體,鍛煉身體就等于對我們的大腦進(jìn)行鍛煉;三、學(xué)習(xí)新知識(shí)和技能。
小題1:F。空前內(nèi)容講述的是隨著年齡的增加,人們逐漸變的健忘,而下文內(nèi)容是關(guān)于如何避免記憶力的下降,由此可知此處應(yīng)該是表示內(nèi)容轉(zhuǎn)折的句子,縱觀選項(xiàng)F項(xiàng)內(nèi)容恰好能夠銜接上下文,故答案選F。
小題2:A 。根據(jù)本段中People who regularly made plans and looked forward to upcoming events had a 50 percent reduced chance of Alzheimer’s disease可以判斷此條建議是讓人們著眼未來,而A選項(xiàng)內(nèi)容恰好符合語境,選A。
小題3:E。前面提到了一些upcoming events會(huì)對人產(chǎn)生影響,而從后句內(nèi)容 Something as simple as setting a goal to have a weekly coffee date with a friend will do.提到了一些小事,由此判斷E選項(xiàng)內(nèi)容能起到承上啟下的作用,故選E。
小題4:G在本段中作者強(qiáng)調(diào)鍛煉對大腦的好處,
小題5:C。本段的段落小標(biāo)題是 Learn something new.,由此可知本段內(nèi)容和學(xué)習(xí)新技能有關(guān)系,而且根據(jù)空后的內(nèi)容Or go dancing with your friends.可以判斷此處是作者提出的建議,而C選項(xiàng)內(nèi)容也是有關(guān)新技能的學(xué)習(xí),內(nèi)容適合語境,故答案選C。

Old Wives' Tales Proven Untrue
We all grew up with sayings that were intended to frighten us into being good or convince us to eat better.Looking back, some of these childhood proverbs don’t even make much sense.(Ever hear the claim that swallowed gum stays in your stomach for seven years? Uh-huh, sure.)However, there are quite a few out there that people still believe in.That's why we decided to investigate some common old wives' tales to see how they hold up under scientific scrutiny.From the moon's affect on crimes to the true causes of colds, this list is sure to surprise even the most enlightened among you.
小題1:     
False: Countless kids were scared into thinking that if they went back in the water less than 60 minutes after eating, they would suddenly cramp up (the muscles get suddenly tightened) and drown.But according to MayoClinic.com, it's perfectly safe to swim after you eat a light meal or snack. The site does recommend taking a short break after eating a big meal, however, not because of cramping, but due to extreme lack of energy. As is known to us all, after eating, more of our blood goes to help the digestive system.
小題2:      
Partially True: This saying has been around since before the discovery of an apple's vital nutrients: Vitamin C and polyphenols.Regardless, the core of the matter is that while this fruit will help keep you well, it's not always enough to keep you out of the medical danger zone; When you're ill, your body requires nutrients from all the different types of food in a well-balanced diet, including fruits, vegetables, yogurt, protein and, of course, chicken soup.Only one kind of specific fruit or food can not solve all the problems.
小題3:      
False: According to the National Weather Service, lightning can strike the same place numerous times, especially if it's a tall, pointed and isolated object. For example, the EmPire State Building, a skyscraper on Fifth Avenue, New York City, USA, which was for long the tallest building in the world, 'is hit an average of 25 times a year. That is the reason why it was once used as a lightning laboratory. Lightning often strikes more than three miles from the thunderstorm and laughs at two  inches of rubber!
小題4:      
False: Neither wet nor dry hair significantly increases your chances of getting sick.WebM  D.com says colds are solely caused when viruses are passed from one person to another, so you should be more concerned with how often you wash your hands, not your hair. A proper way to keep healthy is to develop good personal habits of life.Prevention is always the best cure, better than any drug and treatment.
小題5:      
False: Many interesting things are thought to increase during a full moon emergency room visits, accidents, ability to have babies, werewolves.Almost all these phenomena are attributed to the Lunar Effect, which tries to link unusual, unbelievable, or unacceptable behavior and the phases of the moon. However, according to myth-buster and syndicated columnist, Cecil Adams, there is no truth at all behind the theory.
