A recent study shows that gossip(流言蜚語)is more powerful than truth.It suggests people believe what they hear through the grapevine(小道消息)1they have evidence to the contrary.
Researchers, 2students using a computer game, also found gossip played an important role when people 3 decisions."We show that gossip has a strong 4, even when people have 5 to the original information as well as gossip about the same information.Thus, it is 6 that gossip has a strong controlling potential," said Ralf Sommerfeld, who led the study.
In the study, the researchers 7 the students money and allowed them to give it to others in a series of rounds.The students also wrote 8 about how others played the game that everyone could review.Students tended to give 9 money to people described as “scrooges (吝嗇鬼)” and more to those described as “10 players”.“People only believed the gossip, not the past decisions," Sommerfeld said in a telephone interview.
The researchers then took the game a step11and showed the students the actual decisions people had made.But they also supplied false gossip that contradicted that 12.In these cases, the students13 their decisions to award money on the gossip, 14 the hard evidence.
“If you know what the people did, you should care, but they still 15 what others said,” Sommerfeld said.Researchers have 16 used similar games to study how people cooperate and the 17 of gossip in groups.Scientists define gossip 18 social information spread about a person who is not 19.In evolutionary terms, gossip can be an important tool for people to 20 information about others' reputations or find the way through social networks at work and in their everyday lives.

A mother and daughter living in my community are two of the most unfriendly people I have ever come across in my life. They are totally separated, mixing with 1. As they drive past 2 they keep their eyes looking away and make no sign of acceptance. The only fame they have is making a nuisance of themselves to the local police station by 3 music played too loud, dogs barking more than once a day and any other pretty 4 gripe (把柄).
On moving into this neighborhood, I was 5 of these two but decided I would make up my own mind. This proved quite a 6 to me as more than once either the mother or the daughter would knock on my door and blast (猛烈抨擊) me with some 7 or other.
I 8 answered politely and made sure I 9 as they went past my place and also made the effort now and then to make a kind remark about their garden or pets.

Foulsham House is a fine,stone house of the 1790s.It stands by the River Byre,in twenty-five hectares（公頃）of the best farmland in the southwest.
Smithson built the house,and the story goes back to George,the young Prince of Wales,who fell in love with the beautiful lady Kitty Wake,at one of the first Lord Foulsham’s wild woods parties.In the past many great men rode on the hills about Foulsham House,and many fine ladies took tea in the Green Room.
The house has eight bedrooms,three bathrooms,two living-rooms and a dining room with a real Adam fire-place（壁爐）.The gentleman’s library has a view over the park and the river.All rooms are light and airy（空氣通暢的）,with wood,high windows,and wood floors.
At the back of the house,where the third Lord Foulsham kept the horses,there is garage-space（停車的地方）for four cars.In many other ways,this house of the 1790s meets the needs of the 2000s.

When the UN was founded in 1945,it was made up of fifty members.Fifteen members sat on the Security Council（安理會）.Five members—the United States,the Soviet Union,Great Britain,France and China—were given,not changing membership on the Council.The Council was given the power to settle fights among nations by persuasion,mediation（調(diào)解） or other means.A General Assembly（聯(lián)合國大會）,which included every UN member,was also set up.The Assembly could consider,discuss,and pass resolutions（決議案）.

It is common for older people to forget things. Now an American study has found that memory starts to fail when we are young adults. People younger than thirty years of age usually do not know that they are starting to forget information. But scientists from the University of Michigan say the loss of memory has usually already started.
Researchers say people do not observe this slow reduction in mental ability until the loss affects their everyday activities.
Denise Park led the new study. She directs the Centre for Aging and Cognition at the Institute for Social Research at the University of Michigan. Her team studied more than 350 men and women between the ages of twenty and ninety years. The study identified people in their middle twenties with memory problems.
She says young adults do not know they are forgetting things because their brains have more information than they need.
But she says that people in their twenties and thirties are losing memory at the same rate as people in their sixties and seventies.
Ms. Park says people between the ages of sixty and seventy may note the decrease in their mental abilities. They begin to observe that they are having more trouble remembering and learning new information.
The study found that older adults are more likely to remember false information as being true. For example, they remembered false medical claims as being true. Younger people remembered hearing the information. But they were more likely to remember that it was false.
Ms. Park is now using modern imaging equipment to study what happens in the brains of people of different ages. She is studying what parts of the brain older adults use for different activities compared to younger adults. Ms. Park says mental performance is a direct result of brain activity and brain structure. She says keeping the brain active is important. She hopes future studies will identify ways to improve the operation of our aging minds.

When I was in the third grade, I was picked to be the princess in the school play. For weeks my mother had helped me practice my lines. But once on stage, every word disappeared from my head. Then my teacher told me she had written a narrator's part for the play, and asked me to change roles. Though I didn't tell my mother what had happened that day, she sensed my unhappiness and asked if I wanted to take a walk in the yard. It was a lovely spring day. We could see dandelions(蒲公英）popping through the grass in bunches, as if a painter had touched our landscape with bits of gold. I watched my mother carelessly bend down by one of the bunches. "I think I am going to dig up all these weeds," she said. "From now on, we'll have only roses in this garden." "But I like dandelions," I protested. "All flowers are beautiful-even dandelions!" My mother looked at me seriously. "Yes, every flower gives pleasure in its own way, doesn't it?" she asked thoughtfully. I nodded. "And that is true of people, too," she added. When I realized that she had guessed my pain, I started to cry and told her the fact. “But you will be a beautiful narrator,” she said, reminding me of how much I loved to read stories aloud to her. Over the next few weeks, with her continuous encouragement, I learned to take pride in the role. The big day finally came. A few minutes before the play, my teacher came over to me. “Your mother asked me to give this to you,” she said, handing me a dandelion. After the play, I took home the flower, laughing that I was perhaps the only person who would keep such a weed.
