For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A, B, C or D. You should make the correct choice.Passage OneJust as exercise strengthens the heart and lungs
19、, bones and muscles, it may also power up the brain. A succession of scientific studies of animals implies that physical activity has a positive effect on mental functioning.“Its clear that the brain benefits from exercise,” says scientist William Greenough of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Ch
20、ampaign. His studies with rats have demonstrated two primary effects of activity: vigorous physical exercise provides the brain with more fuel, and skill-based exercise increases the formation of connections in the brain, which, according to the proposals of some scientists, may make the brain bette
21、r able to process information.In one experiment, laboratory rats were separated into three groups. One group was exercised by running inside an automatic wheel, a second group improved their skills in a complicated obstacle course, and a third group was inactive.“The animals that learned to go throu
22、gh the obstacle course exhibited a greater number of brain connections than the animals in the exercised or inactive groups,” Greenough said. “In contrast, the animals that exercised inside the automatic wheel possessed a greater density of blood vessels in the brain than did either of the other two
23、 groups of animals.”Learning a new dance step may boost the brain in the same way that learning a language can, he says. And if the dance is a good physical exercise as well, the benefits multiply. Young brains may be especially able to boost brain power through exercise, suggested another of Greeno
24、ughs experiments that showed the most significant changes in the brain occurred among rats that had been exercised when very young. And while animals arent people, he says it is logical to make the inference that an effect found in rats may also apply to humans.Human studies have focused primarily o
25、n older adults and suggest that regular exercise can improve the speed with which the brain processes information. Measurements made by Arthur Kramer at the University of Illinois demonstrated that inactive adults, aged 63 to 82, could hit buttons faster in response to a tone after they went through
26、 a 10-week water exercise course. A corresponding control group that didnt exercise showed no improvement.41._ can benefit from physical exercise.A. Only the heart and lungs B. Only bones and muscles C. Only the brain D. All of the above 42. What makes the brain better able to process information?A.

While _ of rats showed a greater number of brain connections, _ had a greater density of blood vessels in the brain.A. the first group/the third group B. the second group/the third group C. the first group/t
28、he second group D. the second group/the first group44. One possible reason for scientists to make experiments with rats or other animals is that _. A. rats benefits from the experimentsB. the experiments can boost the brains of the rats C. an effect found in rats may also apply to humansD. rats and
29、humans are very much alike45. Which word in Paragraph 6 tells us that older adults were divided into two groups in the humans studies? A. Corresponding. B. Inactive. C. Older. D. Faster./Passage TwoMary Engelbreit was a talented but struggling artist in her mid-twenties when she flew to New York fro
30、m her native Saint Louis, hoping to find work illustrating childrens books-her life goal. So she was disappointed when all the book publishers she visited turned her down. One even suggested her drawings might be better suited to greeting cards.“I was crushed,” she admits. Greeting cards seemed a co
31、medown from her high expectations, but the advice stayed with her, and she decided to give it a try. The results transformed her life forever.Today Mary Engelbreit sells an astonishing 14 million greeting cards a year. Her popular designs appear on more than 2,000 products, including books, calendar
32、s, and kitchen items. She runs a retail company and the annual sales are in the $100 million range-all as a result of that fateful, disappointing trip to New York.Once you know Engelbreits distinctive style, you can recognize her cards from 200 paced away-bright, funny, and with an eye to the past. Engelbreit is cheerful, down-to-earth
