题目列表(包括答案和解析)

阅读下面短文,根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。注意:每个空格只填一个单词。

  Attention deficit(不足)hyperactivity(活动过度)disorder is known by the letters A.D.H D.Children with A.D.H.D.might have trouble paying attention.They might not seem to listen and might forget things.They might not be able to stay seated or play quietly.They might talk too much and act and speak without thinking about the results of their behavior.These are among the signs named on the web site of America’s Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Doctors usually identify the disorder in children.But experts say the behaviors often last into adulthood.Researchers have been looking for the cause or causes of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.Now, a brain-imaging study offers more evidence that could lead to new ways to treat it.Researchers say they observed shortages in the brain's reward system in patients with A.D.H.D.The study found that levels of some proteins were lower than normal.Nora Volkow, director of the National Institute on Drug Abuse, says the lack of attention and self –control that mark A.B.H.D. could be caused by problem in the flow of dopamine(多巴胺). She says people might have difficulty completing an activity if they cannot expect some kind of reward in return. Researchers studied the pathways on which dopamine travels and A.D.H.D. Doctor Volkow says the researchers then compared the pathways to those of 44 adults without the disorder. “There was a lower concentration of dopamine markers in the brain of individuals with A.D.H.D., specifically in the areas of the brain that are involved with reward and motivation. And the dopamine levels were directly linked to the severity, of the patient’s inattention she says.”

The study used brain images taken at Brookhaven National Laboratory in new York State. Gene-Jack Wang is chairman of the Brookdhaven medical department. He says the finding might also help explain why people with A.D.H.D.

 

are more likely to abuse drugs or overeat. He says they might be attempting to increase their dopamine levels to make up for the deficits in their reward system.

Thursday, March 13, 2003

Hundreds of Japanese fans at Bangkok’s National Stadium fell into silence when the referee whistled on Wednesday dusk, ending Kashima Antlers’ struggle to change their 3-4 failure to China’s Shanghai Shenhua.

“This time the luck isn’t on us, ”said the Kashima Antlers coach Toninho Cerezo.

“But it’s an exciting match, ”said an anonymous official of the Asia Football Confederation(AFC) after the match.

If only judged by the number of shots, the match between Antlers and Shenhua was really an exciting one, which witnessed the most shots of seven in the AFC Champion League 2002/2003 quarter-final Group A.

The shot of Chinese player Yang Guang in two minutes seemed to predict the high frequency of shooting at this game.

In less than 10 minutes, Shenhua’s Chinese international Zhang Yuning scored one more goal for Shenhua.

Under the swift attack of Shenhua, Antlers’ Takuya Nozawa pulled one goal back at the 25th minute, while Shenhua’s Martinez Ascel scored the third goal in the 32nd minute.

The game grew more and more intense in the second half after Antler scored one more goal at the 14th minutes.

Wishing to draw the rival, Antlers beefed up its attack, while the match was interrupted several times by controversial whistles.

But Shenhua’s Martinez found the opportunity in about 80 minutes to have his second successful shoot, which almost set the result of the game.

Antlers’ desperate efforts brought them one more goal a few minutes before the end, but it was too late and the game ended at 4-3.

In a later game, Thailand’s BEC beat South Korea’s Taejon Citizen 2-0. BEC and Antlers, which drew on Monday’s match, will fight against Shenhua and Citizen respectively on Friday. Shenhua lost to Citizen by 1-2 on Monday.

Forget famous goal celebration such as “The Robot” by Peter Crouch and “The Dive” by Juergen Klinsmann, here comes the South African “Diski dance”. The Diski dance, which is performed through heading and kicking an imaginary ball, may be a goal celebration to watch in the following matches.

South Africa’s Siphiwe Tshabalala and his teammates performed this different dance when they celebrated his goal against Mexico in the opening World Cup game on Friday. The dance is already popular on YouTube and many soccer fans may want to learn the moves.

Even South Africa’s President Jacob Zuma has learnt the Diski dance which could be better than Cameroon Roger Milla’s corner flag dance celebration in the 1990 FIFA World Cup. US actor John Travolta performed the dance shortly after landing his Boeing 707 at Lanseria airport, north of Johannesburg, on Wednesday morning.

Goal celebrations are now part of the biggest sporting event and players plan them in advance just in case they find the back of the net. In football, a goal celebration is the practice of celebrating the scoring of a goal. The celebration may be performed by the goal-scorer, his or her teammates, the manager or coaches and the supporters of the team.
