  If you want to stay young, sit down and have a good think. This is the research finding of a team of Japanese doctors, who say that most of our brains are not getting enough exercise, and as a result, we are growing old unnecessarily soon.

Professor Taiju Matsuzawa wanted to find out why quite healthy farmers in northern Japan appeared to be losing their ability to think at a rather early age, and how the speed of getting old could be slowed down.

With a team of researchers at Tokyo National University, he set about measuring brain sizes of a thousand people of different ages with different jobs.

The researchers measured the sizes of the front and side parts of the brain, which have something to do with thinking and feeling, and decide the human character. As we all know, the back part of the brain, which controls task like eating and breathing, does not contract（萎縮）with age.

Contraction of front and side parts, as cells（細(xì)胞）die off, was seen in some people in their thirties, but it was still not found in some sixty and seventy-year-olds.

Matsuzawa concluded from his tests that there is a simple way to prevent the contraction---using the head.

The findings show that contraction of the brain begins sooner in people in the country than those in the towns. Those with least possibility, says Matsuzawa, are lawyers, followed by university professors and doctors. White-collar workers doing the same work day after day in government offices are, however, as possible to have contracting brains as the farm workers, bus drivers and shop assistants.

Most people feel lonely sometimes, but it usually only lasts between a few minutes and a few hours. This kind of loneliness is not serious. In fact, it is quite normal. For some people, though, loneliness can last for years. Now researchers say there are three different types of loneliness.

The first kind of loneliness is temporary(暫時的). This is the most common type. It usually disappears quickly and does not require any special attention. The second kind, situational loneliness, is a natural result or a particular situation---- for example, a family problem, the death of a loved one, or moving to a new place. Although this kind of loneliness can cause physical problems, such as headaches and sleeplessness, it usually does not last for more than a year.

The third kind of loneliness is the most severe. Unlike the second type, chronic(長期的) loneliness usually last more than two years and has no specific cause. People who experience habitual loneliness have problems socializing and becoming close to others. Unfortunately, many chronically lone people think there is little or nothing they can do to improve their condition.

Psychologists (心理學(xué)家)agree that one important fact in loneliness is a person’s social contacts（接觸）, e.g, friends, family members, co-workers, etc. We depend on various people for different reasons. For instance, our families give us emotional support, our parents and teachers give us guidance, and our friends share similar interests and activities. However, psychologists have found that, though lone people may have many social contacts, they sometimes feel they should have more. They question their own popularity.

Psychologists are trying to find ways to help habitually lonely people for two reasons: they are unhappy and unable to socialize and there is a connection between chronic loneliness and serious illness such as heart disease. While temporary and situational loneliness can be a normal, healthy part of life, chronic loneliness can be a very sad, and sometimes dangerous condition.

Swimming is one of those activities that can be learned early in life. Little children can learn to swim as soon as they walk. In fact, you need the same skills in walking as in swimming. However, I believe that five is the best age to learn. By five or six, a child knows fear of water, a very important thing to know. It's wise to be afraid, to recognize true danger. Young ones understand that the water can sometimes be very dangerous.

To really benefit from swimming, every swimmer should learn, as soon as possible, these four basic strokes; butterfly, backstroke, Breaststroke, and crawl. I feel that one of these-the breaststroke-is different from the others, since some young swimmers use this stroke naturally, without any training.

In swimming there are certain rules every swimmer should follow:

1). Never swim alone! No matter how good you are in the water, don’t risk drowning by swimming alone. If you swim by yourself, with no life guards or friends with you, you may get into trouble.

2). Don't go beyond your abilities. Most swimmers know enough not to swim too far from the bank or the beach, Showing off by doing dangerous tricks is no good. Swim safely and you will continue to swim and alive.

3). Don't smoke. Swimming depends on a healthy body; good lungs are part of it.

4). Work at any activity that builds muscles.

49. Little children can learn to swim as soon as _____.

A. they can talk                        B. they start walking

C. they have no fear of the water           D. they are five or six years old

50. The author believes that fear of water is_____.

A. stupid        B. sensible      C. dangerous      D. not smart

51. The stroke that some young swimmers use first is_____.

A. butterfly      B. backstroke    C. breaststroke     D. crawl

52. According to the passage, you should not swim alone because_____.

A. the water is too cold                    B. your parents would not be happy

C. something in the water might attack        D. you might drown

Wings of Angel

I used to hate myself because I wasn’t “normal”. Everyone else could play on the monkey bars and ride on a bicycle, but not 　34 . I had a severe spinal cord disorder (脊髓病) and I knew I would always be much 　35 than others.

I hated going to school and I hated people 　36 at me. I hated seeing others smiling broadly and standing straight and tall. And most of all, I hated looking in the 　37 and seeing an ugly hunchback (駝背).

My friends found me 　38 because I didn’t let others get close to me. I thought I was going to go on like this for the rest of my life 　39 Angel appeared.

That afternoon, I was sitting by myself in a corner of the school — a spot where no one would 　40 me. That’s when I first heard her voice.

“Hi. Can I sit down?”

I raised my head and there she was, with an irresistible（極為誘人的） smile on her round face.

“What are you looking at?” she asked.

“Ants.”

“What are they doing?”

“No idea.”

“I bet they’re playing games and making friends. Don’t you think so?”

That was how our 　41 started and it didn’t stop. We talked about everything under the sun—the ants, the clouds, my little niche (處境) — until it was sunset.

Then suddenly, she saw my 　42 . She just stared.

　 My heart sank. What I feared most had happened and I knew for sure she would 　43 me now.

She stood up, pointed at my back and said, “I know 　44 your back is hunched.”

I closed my eyes like a criminal waiting to be sentenced. I begged in my heart for her to 　45 , but she just kept on going. “I know what you’ve got in there. Do you?”

“No,” I answered 　46 .

She bent and whispered in my ears.

“Your back is hunched because you’ve got a pair of wings from the angels.”　

I was 　47 . I looked into her eyes and her kindness touched my heart. From that day on, I started to learn to 48 myself because I have the wings of an angel and a kind-hearted friend.
