The effects of exercise on brain development can even be seen in babies. Babies who do activities that require a lot of movement show greater brain development than babies who are less physically active. Even a little movement can show big results. Margaret Barnes, a scientist, also believes in the importance of exercise. She thinks that many learning disabilities that children have in primary school or high school can result from a lack of movement as babies. Babies need movement that encourages and excites their five senses. They need to set up a connection between motion and memory. In this way, as they get older, children will begin to connect physical activity with higher learning,” says Margaret.

Older people can develop their brains as well. Cornell University studied a group of seniors who have a short-term memory increase of up to 40 percent after exercising just three hours a week. The exercise does not have to be very difficult, but it does have to increase the heart rate. Also, just like the motion for babies, exercise for older people should not be too simple. Learning some new skills or actions, such as with yoga or tai-chi helps to open up memory paths in the brain that may not have been used for a long time. For most people, any type of physical activity that increases the heart rate is helpful. The main aim is to increase the brain’s flow of blood. And your brain can benefit from as little as two to three hours of exercise a week.

【1】What is the main idea of this passage?

A. Exercise makes people strong.

B. How one can get good scores in a test.

C. Exercise can help the brain develop.

D. Brain can change one’s memory.

【2】Why is yoga suggested for the old?

A. Because it does good to the joints of old people.

B. Because it does not increase the heart rate.

C. Because it can help learn new actions.

D. Because it can be done in groups.

【3】For most people, the smallest amount of exercise required to gain any benefit is _____.

A. two hours per week B. 40 hours per week

C. three hours per day D. 40 hours per month

When I started school here, it had already been a week since the school opened. At this school, freshmen usually go on a trip for about three days at the beginning of school. Unfortunately I missed that wonderful trip, which would have been the best time to get to know my classmates. I was really sad. I wished I’d known about it earlier.

Despite the disappointment, however, I gradually adapted to my new life and school. There is a space in the basement of the teaching building where students chat and meet each other. As we do not always have the same classrooms and classmates, the school wants us to get to know each other there. Students usually come to school early, sit in that space and have fun. Around the space, there are many lockers for students to leave their books in, so that students do not have to carry a heavy schoolbag everywhere.

It really surprises me that we have almost no textbooks. We only have textbooks for World History and Algebra 2 and they are big and heavy, like bricks. For other classes, we only need binders with paper in them. Without textbooks, students learn things freely and actively. For example, my humanities teacher just teaches us what is in her mind at the time. We never know what we will learn.

Another difference between American schools and Chinese schools is that American schools care about students’ morality more than their academic studies. For example, if you do not finish your homework, you will just be asked to do it later, but if you cheat or lie, you will get a warning or even be kicked out.

I think that most students here are good at schoolwork as well, but compared to Chinese students, they can make learning a more joyful experience. I think we should take the good points from our two different kinds of education to perfect our approach to studying.

What are the benefits of laughter? Laughter 【1】 (use) as a signal for being part of a group —it signals acceptance and positive interactions with others. In fact, laughter is important, and has been shown to have many 【2】 (benefit) effects on the human body in different ways. Just check out these health benefits of laughter.

Boosts (增强) your immune system.【3】 (study) have shown that laughter boosts the immune system, increasing the number of antibody-producing T cells. This then makes us less likely 【4】 (catch) coughs and colds. It also lowers the levels of at least four hormones (激素) which are connected with stress. So, after a good laugh you should be far less anxious.

Improves your breathing. Laugh more and more, because laughter empties your lungs of the air 【5】 it takes in, resulting in a cleansing effect - similar 【6】 deep breathing. This is 【7】 (especial) helpful for people who are suffering from asthma (哮喘).

Regular laughter is like 【9】 (get) a gym membership for your heart The study said that 15 minutes of laughter a day is as important for your heart 【10】 30 minutes of exercise 3 times a week.

I hate driving. So it’s been quite encouraging watching the growth in cyclist numbers over the past decade. It is estimated that 10,000-plus cyclists enter the CBD (Central Business District) each day, taking pressure off public transport. But as more people take to cycling as a mode of transport, the number of cyclists seriously injured or killed keeps climbing. And that is a sign that our infrastructure (基础设施) is still not good enough.

Melbourne was once a dream for cyclists-flat, long, wide roads, with plenty of paths along rivers. Now, cycling can be deadly, with roads dominated by cars. I have a friend who broke her back and was lucky to escape paralysis, and others with broken bones. In my time riding, I’ve been forced off the road by a truck, cut off by four-wheel drives, and told to get off the road.

These things don’t exactly happen to trams and buses, those other slow coaches on Melbourne’s roads. No—drivers reserve a particular savagery (残暴行为) for cyclists. And that’s a sign of exactly one thing: inadequate infrastructure.

We shouldn’t need to be taught how to coexist in the same narrow space. Drivers and cyclists should be kept apart. The present debate over how to minimize “dooring” is a distraction.

Dooring is not a legal problem. You cannot legislate (制定法律) it away. Designing bike paths so riders are channelled between moving cars and parked cars is deadly. All it takes is one daydreaming driver to fling open the door and you are gone. That’s what happened to the young university student James Cross.

This year, there are to be new anti-dooring lanes (车道) built on Glenferrie Road, Hawthorn, where Cross died in 2010. But these lanes are not safe. Cyclists must still pass between two rows of cars.

【1】（小题1）What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A. Some people hating driving.

B. More people choosing to cycle.

C. More cyclists having accidents.

D. Distracted driving happening a lot.

【2】（小题2）What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?

A. Many people are bad at cycling.

B. There are many cars in Melbourne.

C. Melbourne was once very beautiful.

D. It’s dangerous to cycle in Melbourne.

【3】（小题3）Which was the major cause of James Cross’ death according to the author?

A. Deadly bike paths.

B. A driver’s mistake.

C. Cross’ carelessness.

D. An outdated legal system.

【4】（小题4）What is the purpose of the text?

A. To tell a personal story.

B. To encourage readers to cycle.

C. To criticize rude driving behavior.

D. To stress the necessity of safe bike paths.

Disappointing at the result of the examination, I sat on the sofa in silent after school. My father, he found I was so unhappy, come to ask me why. After learning the reason, my father gave me a smile. He said, “Don’t allow the terribly things in your life to discount the positive ones. Don’t let a bad day or month or year to make you feel like you have a bad life, instead focusing on everything that’s going wrong, start holding onto all of the things that is going right. You’ll feel better soon. “Heard what my father said, I felt it the shame to act like that and decided to cheer myself up.
