    “Mobile phones killed our man.” screamed one headline last year. Also came statements that an unpublished study had found that mobile phones cause memory loss. And a British newspaper devoted its front page to a picture supposedly showing how mobile phones heat the brain. For anyone who uses a mobile phone, these are worring times. But speak to the scientists whose work is the focus of these scared and you will hear a different story.

    What we do have, however, are some results suggesting that mobile phones’ emission(辐射) have a variety of strange effects on living tissue that can’t be explained by the general radiation biology. And it’s only when the questions raised by these experiments are answered that we’ll be able to say for sure what mobile phones might be doing to the brain.

    One of the strange effects comes from the now famous “memory loss” study. Alan Preece and his colleagues at the University of Bristol placed a devic(装置) that copied the microwave emission of mobile phones to the left ear of volunteers. The volunteers were all good at recalling words and pictures they had been shown on a computer screen. Preece says he still can’t comment on the effects of using a mobile phone for years on end. But he rules out the suggesting that mobile phones have an immediate effect on our cognitive(感知的) abilities. “I’m pretty sure there is no short-term memory.” he says.

    Another expert, Tatterasll, remarked that his latest findings have removed fears about memory loss. One result, for instance, suggests that nerve cell synapses(神经元突触) exposed to microwaves become more—rather than less—receptive to under-going changes linked to the memory formation.

    It would be an even happier outcome if microwave turned out to be good for you. It sounds crazy, but a couple of years ago a team led by Willian Adey at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center in California found that mice exposed to microwave for two hours a day were less likely to develop brain tumours(肿瘤) when given a cancer-causing chemical.

    So should we forget about mobile phone radiation causing brain tumours and making us unable to think clearly or reasonably?

    “If it doesn’t cause cancer in animals and cells, then it probably isn’t going to cause cancer in humans,” says William. And while there’s still no absolute evidence that mobile phone does damage your memories or give your cancer, the unanimity is: Don’t panic.

    1.What worries people who use mobile phones?

    A. Mobile phones will kill them.

    B. Mobile phones cause memory loss.

    C. Mobile phones heat the brain.

    D. All above is right.

    2.What is the attitude of Prece on the suggestion that mobile phones have an immediate effect on our congnitive abilities?

    A. Doubt.B. Disagree.C. Approve.D. Wait and see.

    3.The underlined word “unanimity ”in the last paragraph most probably means “_______”.

    A. consensusB. disagreementC. possibilityD. impossibility

    4.From the fifth paragraph, we can infer that being exposed to microwaves for two hours _________.

    A. can result in killing you

    B. is likely develop brain tumours

    C. is unlikely to develop brain tumours

    D. will cause your loss of memory for ever

    根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

    To understand your child’s learning style, observe him as he plays. 1. Chances are, you’ll notice that his favorites have something in common. Perhaps they all have bright colors and different patterns or interesting shapes, or make sounds. Then look at how he plays: Does he tend to look at objects carefully or to hold and feel them in his hands? Perhaps he is less interested in toys than in rolling and moving around. 2.

    Most children have a number of different intelligences and learning styles and can be engaged in a variety of ways. If you don’t see a strong preference for particular toys or games, it means that your child has more than one primary intelligence or that he isn’t old enough to have developed a strong preference. 3. By then your child will most likely respond best to specific activities and types of experiences.

    4. This doesn’t mean that you have no way to help him master certain skills—almost anything can be taught in a way that works well for a specific intelligence. When you identify and respond to your child’s intelligence and learning style, you help him approach the world on his terms. 5.

    A. Respecting individual intelligences and learning styles means offering your child a variety of ways to learn.

    B. Which toys does he tend to choose?

    C. You should not force your child to do what he doesn’t like.

    D. As you play with your child, pay attention to what he is most interested in.

    E. In most cases, you can begin to see a preference for particular styles at around age two.

    F. Following his strengths can make mastering new skills less frustrating and can help him develop a lifelong love of learning.

    G. Telling your child his learning styles is a good way to improve his studies.
