    Let's say you want to hit the gym more regularly this year. How do you make that happen? Consider putting the habit loop to use.
    Here's how it works:
    A habit is a 3-step process. First, there's a cue, something that tells your brain to operate automatically. Then there's a routine. And finally, a reward, which helps your brain learn to desire the behavior. It's what you can use to create-or break-habits of your own.
    Here's how to apply it:
    Choose a cue, like leaving your running shoes by the door, then pick. a reward-say, a piece of chocolate when you get home from the gym. That way, the cue and the reward become interconnected. Finally, when you see the shoes, your brain will start longing for the reward, which will make it easier to work out day after day. The best part? In a couple of weeks, you won't need the chocolate at all. Your brain will come to see the workout itself as the reward. Which is the whole point, right?
    小题1:Which of the following best fits in the box with a “?” in THE HABIT LOOP?
    A．Pick a new cue.B．Form a new habit.
    C．Choose a new reward.D．Design a new resolution.
    小题2:According to THE HABIT LOOP, you can stick to your plan most effectively by______.
    A．changing the routineB．trying it for a week
    C．adjusting your goalD．writing it down
    小题3:What's the purpose of putting the habit loop to use?
    A．To test out different kinds of cues.
    B．To do something as a habit even without rewards.
    C．To work out the best New Year's resolution.
    D．To motivate yourself with satisfactory rewards.
    小题4:“This year when I see the Harry Potter poster, I will read 30 pages of an English novel or an English newspaper in order to watch TV for half an hour." What is the cue in this resolution?
    A．The Harry Potter poster.
    B．Reading 30 pages of an English novel.
    C．An English newspaper.
    D．Watching TV for half an hour.

    小题1:C
    小题2:D
    小题3:B
    小题4:A

    试题分析：文章用图文并茂的形式教读者怎样在新的一年制定一个新的决心，从线索到实施到奖励，最终要做到没有奖励也能将它变成习惯。
    小题1:推理题：根据文章图表里面内容的句子：可知如果对这个奖励不满意，可以选择一个新的奖励，Choose a new reward最适合The Habit Loop里面的有问号的方框，所以选C。
    小题2:细节题：根据文章图表的下方左边的方框：可知根据The Habit Loop所说，你可以通过将计划写下来从而更有效的坚持这个计划，所以选D。
    小题3:细节题：根据文章最后一段的句子：In a couple of weeks, you won't need the chocolate at all. Your brain will come to see the workout itself as the reward.可知使用The Habit Loop的目的是甚至没有回报都可以将一些事情当成习惯做，所以选B
    小题4:推理题：根据文章的内容，A habit is a 3-step process. First, there's a cue, something that tells your brain to operate automatically. Then there's a routine. And finally, a reward,可知在新年里面下新的决心，先要有线索，然后是常规做法，最后是奖励，这里看见哈利波特的海报属于线索，所以选A

    Many people cannot start their day without first having a cup of coffee or tea．These drinks help them think clearly and feel more awake．This is because of caffeine，which helps to give a jump start to the nervous system．Now，a report says it may also boost long-term memory．
    Mike Yassa is a neurobiology professor．He and other researchers wanted to know if caffeine could improve a person’s memory．He explains，“After you learn anything，it takes some time for that memory to strengthen．And over the first 24 hours is actually where most of   the forgetting happens．So that is where we wanted to intervene with caffeine and see if we can help reduce this forgetting．”  
    They took 160 caffeine-free people and showed them pictures of everyday objects. These people were asked if the objects could be found inside the house， or outdoors．Then some of the subjects were given a caffeine pill．The others were given a placebo—a pill containing nothing. 24 hours later，the subjects were shown the exact same images from the day before．They were also shown images with slight differences，and some completely new images. Both groups correctly identified the exact same and completely new pictures．But those who took the caffeine pill were better at spottingthe pictures that were slightly different．
    Professor Yassa says their answers helped to show the effects of caffeine on memory. And  we find that if they are on caffeine they are much more likely to make the right decision．”
    The amount of caffeine the researchers used in the study was similar to one cup of strong coffee．The researchers did not see any improvement to memory from smaller doses of caffeine or when it was given an hour before viewing the images．

    Rae and Bruce Hostetler not only work very hard，they also relax just as well.Numerous vacations help  the couple to maintain their health and emotional well­being­­and it’s no surprise to health care professionals.
    “Rest，relaxation，and  stress  reduction are very  important for people’s well­being and health.This can be accomplished through daily activities，such as exercise and meditation，but vacation is an important part of this as well，” said primary care physician Natasha Withers from One Medical Group in New York.Withers lists a decreased risk of heart disease and improved reaction time as some of the benefits from taking some time off.“We also know that the mind is very powerful and can help with healing，so a rested，relaxed mind is able to help the body heal better，” said Withers.
    Psychologists confirm the value of vacations for the mind.“The impact that taking a vacation has on one’s mental health is great，” said Francine Lederer，a clinical psychologist in Los Angeles who specializes in stress and relationship management.“Most people have better life perspective and are more motivated to achieve their goals after a vacation，even if it is a 24­hour time­out.” The trips could be good for their health，good for their family and good for their businesses.
    The online travel agency Expedia conducted a survey about vacation time in 2010，and according to their data the average American earned 18 vacation days—but only used 14 of them.France topped the list，with the average worker earning 37 vacation days and using all but two of them.Americans’ responses may not be surprising in a culture where long hours on the job often are valued，but that’s not always good for the individual，the family or the employer.
    Psychologists have also found that people who don’t take enough time to relax may find it harder to relax in the future.“Without time and opportunity to do this，the nerve connections that produce feelings of calm and peacefulness become weaker，making it actually more difficult to shift into less­stressed states，” Mulhern said.
    小题1:How did the author introduce the topic of the text?
    A．By making comparisons.B．By giving an example.
    C．By raising questions.　D．By providing data.
    小题2:According to Natasha Withers，vacations can________.
    A．weaken reaction system
    B．cure serious diseases
    C．reduce the level of well­being
    D．decrease the risk of heart disease
    小题3:Expedia’s survey shows that Americans________.
    A．dislike family gatherings
    B．have the shortest vacation
    C．enjoy as many vacations as the French
    D．think much of spending long hours on the job
    小题4:What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
    A．One should never wait to relax.
    B．Work and rest go against each other.
    C．Time and opportunity wait for no man.
    D．A relaxed mind determines everything.
    小题5:What is mainly talked about in the text?
    A．Ways to relax in one’s free time.
    B．The benefits of taking time off.
    C．Different opinions on holidays.
    D．The Hostetlers always on the go.

    There has been an outpouring of love for a 23-year-old disabled woman whose dog was killed in front of her while a groomer(美容师)tried to trim(修剪)its claws.

    Calls and e-mails came from as far away as the Upper Peninsula and Arizona as well as Oakland and Macomb counties, offering Laurie Crouch, who uses a wheelchair because of multiple sclerosis(硬化症), everything from dogs to money, such as that from Jason Daly of Roseville who said, “I would like to buy her a new dog. ”
    A story about the death of Crouch’s pet, Gooch, was printed on the front page of Macomb Daily. Crouch said a groomer tied Gooch up with a collar, and then she and a man sat on the dog to trim its nails. Gooch died after one claw was trimmed.
    Crouch yelled at the groomer to stop when she saw Gooch was struggling to breathe, but she said she was ignored. “If I could have walked, I would have put my hands on her and pulled her off my dog and physically stopped her, but I can’t do that. ”Gooch was not a trained service animal, but naturally helped Crouch by picking up things for her.
    “This case is absolute animal abuse(虐待), ”Larry Obrecht, division manager of the Oakland County Animal Shelter in Auburn Hills said.
    People who read the story contacted Oakland Press to offer help. A message, from Rebecca Amett of Giggles N Wiggles Puppy Rescue in Roseville, said, “We have puppies to donate and want to help the young woman who lost her service dog. ”
    “When Gooch was with me I was happy, ”Crouch said, “I think I can be happy again but no animal can replace Gooch. There’s never going to be another Gooch out there but I think I will find a dog that can bring me joy again. ”
