题目列表(包括答案和解析)
If you want to stay young, sit down and have a good think. This is the research findings 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 and reason 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.
Computer technology helped the researchers to get most exact measurements of 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 tasks like eating and breathing, does not contract（萎缩）with age.
Contraction of front and side parts, as cells（细胞）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 in the towns. Those with least possibility, says Matsuzawa, are lawyers, followed by university professors and doctors. While 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.
(1) The team of doctors want to find out ________.
[ ]
A．at what point people grow mentally old

B．tests given on a thousand old people
C．examining the brain sizes of different people
D．using computer technology
(3) The doctor's tests show that ___________.
[ ]
A．our brains contract as we grow older
B．one part of the brain does not contract
C．sixty-year-olds have better brains than thirty-year-olds
D．some people's brains have contracted earlier than other people
(4) The most possible conclusion of the article is that __________.
[ ]
A．most of us should take more exercise
B．the brain contracts if it is not used
C．it's better to live in the towns
D．the more one uses his brain, the sooner he becomes old

Luggage
We ask you to keep what you bring with you down to one mediumsized suitcase per person on board
the bus.
Seat Arrangements (安排)
Special needs for particular seats can be made on most bus breaks when booking, but since
arrangements are made on a firstcomefirstserved basis, early booking is advisable. When bookings are
made with us, you will be offered the best seats we have on the bus at that time.
Travel Documents
When you have paid your deposit (订金), we will send you all the necessary documents, so that you
receive them in good time before the bus break departure (出发) date. Certain documents, for example,
air or boat tickets, may have to be kept and your driver or guide will then give them to you at the proper
time.
Special Diets
If you need a special diet, you must tell us at the time of booking and provide us with a copy of the diet. This will be passed on to the hotel or hotels on your bus break. However, on certain bus breaks, the hotels used are tourist class and they may not be able to prepare special diets. Any extra costs must be paid to
the hotel yourself before leaving the hotel.
Programs
Some of our hotels arrange extra programs which include music, dancing and film shows, etc. They are all offered by the hotel, but not guaranteed (保证)．
