The Need to Remember

Some people say they have no memory at all: "I just can&39;t rememB．er athing !" B．ut of coursewe all have amemory. Our memory tells us who we are. Our memory helps us to make use in thepresent of what we have learnt in the past.

In fact we have different types of memory. For example, our visual memory helps us recallfacts and places. Some people have such astrong visual memory that they can remember exactlywhat they have seen, for example, pages of abook, as acomplete picture.

Our verbal(言语的 )memory helps us rememB．er words and figures we may have heard butnot seen or written: Items of ashopping list, achemical formula, dates, or arecipe.

With our emotional(情感的)memory, we recall situations or places where we had; strongfeelings, perhaps of happiness or unhappiness. We also have special memories for smell, taste,touch and sound, and for performing physical movements.

We have two ways of storing any of these memories. Our short-term memory stores items forup to thirty seconds--enough to remember atelephone number while we dial. Our long-term mem-ory, on the other hand, may store items for alifetime. Older people in fact have amuch biterlong-term memory than short-term. They may forget what they have done only afew hours ago, buthave the clearest remembrance (记忆) of when they were very young.

Psychologists tell us that we only remember afew facts about our past, and that we invent therest. It is as though we remember only the oudine of astory. We then make up the details. We of-ten do this in the way we want to remember them, usually so that we appear as the heroes of ourown past, or maybe victims needing sympathy (同情).

Visual memory helps us recall aplace we have been to. 查看材料

阅读材料，回答题。

The Adjustment in Understanding of Man"s Relation to the Physical Universe

Nowadays the scattering of galaxies and the astounding abundance of stars are forcing those who ponder such matters to a further adjustment of their concept of the place and function of man in the material universe.

In the history of the51human mind， with its increasing knowledge of the surrounding context， there must have been a time when the philosophers of the52tribes began to realize that the world was not simply centered on man himself. The geocentric concept， which accepted a universe centered on the earth， then became common53

The second adjustment in the understanding of man"s relation to the physical universe was not generally acceptable54the sixteenth century. Copernican revolution soundly55the heliocentric Concept， the theory of a universe56on the sun. Man is a stubborn adherent to official dogma; eventually， however， he accepted the sun as the center.

Then， forty years ago， came the need for a third adjustment. This57has deeply exploded man"s pride and58， for it has carried with it the knowledge of the appalling number of galaxies.

The galactocentric universe59puts the earth and its life near the edge of one great galaxy in a universe of millions of galaxies. Man becomes peripheral among the billions of stars of his own Milky Way; and， according to the revelations of paleontology and geochemistry， he is60and apparently transient in the61of cosmic time.

The downgrading of the earth and sun and the elevation of the galaxies is not the end of this62of scientific pilgrims through philosophic fields. The need for another63adjustment now64not wholly unexpected by scientists，65wholly the result of one or two scientific revelations.

Our new problem concerns the spread of life throughout the universe. As unsolicited spokesmen for all the earthly organisms of land， sea， and air， we ask the thrilling question: Are we alone？

阅读材料，回答题。 The Jobless Rate in U. S.There are only a couple of ways to explain how

阅读材料，回答题。

The Jobless Rate in U. S.

There are only a couple of ways to explain how the capacity of U.S. workers to claim their accustomed share of the nation&39;s income has so stunningly collapsed. Outsourcing is certainly a big part of the picture.

As Stephen Roach, a famous economist, has noted, private-sector hiring in the current recovery is roughly ？million jobs shy of what would have been the norm in previous recoveries and U.S.corporations, high-tech as well as low-tech, are busily hiring employees from lower-wage nation instead of from our own.

The jobless rate among U.S. software engineers, for instance, has doubled over the past three years.In Bangalore, India, where American companies are on a huge hiring spree for the kind of talent they used to scoop up in Silicon Valley, the starting annual salary for top electrical engineering graduates, says Business Week, is $ 10,000 compared with $ 80,000 here in the States.Tell that to a software writer in Palo Alto and she&39;s not likely to up her boss for a raise.That software writer certainly doesn&39;t belong to a union, either.

Indeed, the current recovery is not only the first to take place in all economy in which global wage rates are a factor, but the first since before the New Deal to take place in an economy in which the rate of private-sector unionization is in single digits just 3.5 percent of the workforce.

The current administration is not responsible for the broad contours of this miserably misshapen recovery, but its every action merely increases the imbalance of power between America&39;s employers and employees.But the Democrats&39;prescriptions for more broadly shared prosperity need some tweaking, too.With the globalization of high-end professions, no Democrat can assert quite so confidently the line that Bill Clinton used so often : What you earn is a result of what you learn.This year&39;s crop of presidential candidates is taking more seriously the importance of labor standards in trade accords, and the right of workers to organize.But they&39;ve got a way to go to make the issue of stagnating incomes into the kind of battle crying it should be in the campaign against Bush.If they&39;re not up to it, I say we outsource them all and bring in some pools from Bangalore.

Which of the following might have contributed to the current miserably misshapen recovery in the U.S.？查看材料

A.The New Deal.

B.The globalization of eco.nomy.

C.The economic policies adopted by the Bush administration.

D.U.S.workers are no longer capable of sharing the increase of nation"s income.

阅读材料，回答题：

Eat to Live

A meager diet may give you health and long life, hut it&39;s not much fun--and it might not e-yen be necessary. We may be aB．le to hang on to most of that youthful vigor even if we don&39;t start todiet until old age.

Stephen Spindler and his colleagues from the University of Californiaat Riverside have found that some of an elderly mouse&39;s liver genes can be made to behave as they did when the mouse wasyoung simply by limiting its food for four weeks. The geneticrejuvenation won&39;t reverse other dam- age causedby time for the mouse, B．ut could help its liver metabolize drugs or get rid of toxins.

Spindler&39;s team fed three mice anormal diet for their whole lives, and fed another three onhalf-rations. Three more mice were switched from the normal diet to half-feed for amonth whenthey were 34 months old--equivalent to about 70 human years.

The researchers checked the activity of 11,000 genes from the mouse livers, and found that46 changed with age in the normally fed mice. The changes were associated with things like in-flammation and free radical production--probably bad news for mouse health. In the mice that haddieted all their lives, 27 of those 46 genes continued to behave like young genes. but the most sur-prising finding was that the mice that only started dieting in old age alsobenefited from 70 percentof these gene changes.

"This is the first indication that these effects kick in pretty quickly," says HuB．er Warnerfrom the National Institute on Aging near Washington D. C.

No one yet knows if calorie restriction works in people as it does in mice, B．ut Spindler ishopeful. "There&39;s attracting and tempting evidence out there that it will work," he says.

If it does work in people, there might be good reasons for rejuvenating the liver. As we get ol-der, our bodies are less efficient at metabolizing drugs, for example. A．brief period of time of die-ting, says Spindler, could be enough to make sure adrug is effective.

but Spindler isn&39;t sure the trade-off is worth it. "The mice get less disease,they live longer,but they&39;re hungry," he says. "Even seeing what adiet does, it&39;s still hard to go to arestaurantand say: &39; I can only eat half of that. &39;"

Spindler hopes we soon won&39;t need to diet at all. His company, Lifespan Genetics in Califor-nia, is looking for drugs that have the effects of calorie restriction.

According to the passage， which of the following is NOT true？查看材料

A.Eating less than usual might make us live longer

B.If we go on adiet when old， we may keep healthy

C.Dieting might not be needed

D.We have to begin dieting since childhood

阅读材料，回答题。

The Drink Your Body Needs Most

1. Our bodies are estimated to be about 60% to 70% water.Blood is mostly water and our muscles, lungs, and brain all contain a lot of water.Water is needed to regulate body temperature and to provide the means for nutrients (滋养物 ) to travel to all our organs.Water also transports oxygen to our cells, removes waste, and protects our joints and organs.

2. We lose water through urination (排尿) , respiration (呼吸) , and by sweating.If you are very active,you lose more water than if you do not take much exercise, Symptoms of mild dehydration (脱水 ) include chronic pains in joints and muscles, lower back pain, headaches, and constipation (便秘) . A strong smell to your urine, along with a yellow color indicates that you are not getting enough water. Thirst is all obvious sign of dehydration and in fact, you need water long before you feel thirsty.

3.A good rule of thumb (好的做法 ) is to take your body weight in pounds and divide that number in half.That gives you the number of ounces (盎司 ) of water per day that you need.For example, if you weigh 160 pounds, you should drink at least 80 ounces of water per day,If you exercise you should drink another 8 ounces glass of water for every 20 minutes you are active. If you drink coffee or alcohol, you should add at least an equal amount of water.When you are traveling on an airplane, it is good to have 8 ounces of water for every hour you are on board the plane.

4. It may be difficult to drink enough water on a busy day. Be sure you have water handy at all times by keeping a bottle for water with you when you are working, traveling, or exercising.If you get bored with plain water, add a bit of lemon for a touch of flavor.There are some brands of flavored water available, but some of them have sugar or artificial sweeteners that you don&39;t need.

阅读材料，回答题：

Flu Shots Or Not？

It sounded like a good idea when New York City&39;s ~nayor, Rudollph Giuliani, advised New Yorkers recently to get a flu shot. After all,20,000 Americans each year die of influenza. And this year in particular, the mayor suggested, getting a flu shot might be an especially good idea, since it could help doctors distinguish between flu and the deadly inhalational(吸入的) form. of anthrax (炭疽). How？ Both anthrax and flu exhibit strikingly similar symptoms--fever, chills and muscle aches--in the early days of the infection. Physicians would be quick to suspect anthrax in anyone who was vaccinated (接种疫苗) against flu and still developed fever and chills. That would give them a better chance to identify any new victims of terror while their infection was still in its earliest, most treatable stages.

Or so the mayor&39;s reasoning went. Unfortunately, there are a couple of problems with his log- ic. For one thing, getting vaccinated against influenza doesn&39;t guarantee you won&39;t get sick. Al- though highly effective, the flu vaccine(疫苗) protects against only the dominant types of the dis- ease and even then does not provide 100% protection. It takes a couple of weeks for your body to respond to the vaccine with a sufficient number of antibodies (抗体). Each year thousands of Americans who get the vaccine nevertheless still get the flu.

There are also plenty of reasons you might develop fever, chills and muscle aches that have nothing to do with either anthrax or flu. Indeed, doctors estimate that more than 80% of all flu- like illnesses each winter are caused by other groups of viruses. Getting vaccinated against flu can&39;t protect you against suffering from these other illnesses.

In the worst case, asking all healthy adults to get vaccinated could actually have the opposite effect to the one intended, leading to even more deaths if it means we run out of shots for those who are most vulnerable to the infection. Already there have been delays in getting this year&39;s shipment of vaccine to clinics and doctor&39;s offices. Those who should be at the front of the line in- clude folks who are 65 or older, nursing-home residents and adults and children with chronic health problems as well as anyone who cares for or lives with such people，flu shots are also im- portant men and women whose immune system is weakened by HIV（艾滋病病毒） or other conditions.

The best reason to get the flu vaccine is that it protects against most flus--not that you&39;re worried about getting anthrax. While inhalational anthrax has killed only five people so far, many more could be at risk from flu-related complications. There&39;s no need to worsen the tragedy by making this year&39;s influenza epidemic any worse.

Quite a few New Yorkers took their mayor‘s recent advice and got a flu shot. 查看材料

Breakfast

Studies show that children who eat breakfast do better in school. It doesn&39;t take much further thought to believe that adults will feel better and perform. better at work as well .Whether you work at home, on the farm, at the office, at school, or on the road, it is not a good idea to skip (故意略去 ) breakfast.

If we don&39;t eat breakfast, we are likely to become tired when our brains and bodies run low on fuel. By mid-morning, a lot of us grab a cup of coffee, or wolf down a sugary candy bar to wake up again. This might work for a few minutes, but by lunchtime we are hungry, bad-tempered, and perhaps our mood might make us a little more likely to make unhealthy choices at lunch. Eating a good breakfast sets the tone for the rest of the day.

People who eat breakfast are generally more likely to maintain a healthy weight. Many people believe that they will lose weight if they skip meals, but that isn&39;t a good idea. The body expects to be refueled a few times a day, so start with a healthy breakfast.

A healthy breakfast should contain some protein (蛋白质) and some fiber (纤维) . Protein can come from meat, eggs, beans, or soy (大豆) . Fiber can be found in whole cereals (谷物), grains or in fruits.A good example of a healthy breakfast might be something simple like a hard boiled egg, an orange, and a bowl of whole grain cereal with soy milk.

阅读材料，回答题：

Late-Night Drinking

Coffee lovers beware. Having aquick" pick-me-up" cup of coffee late in the day will playhavocwith your sleep. As well as being astimulant, caffeine interrupts the flow of melatonin, theB．rain hormone that sends people into asleep.

Melatonin levels normally start to rise about two hours before bedtime. Levels then peak be-tween 2 am and 4 am, before failing again. "It&39;s the neurohormone that controls our sleep tells ourB．ody when to sleep and when to wake, "says Maurice Ohayon of the Stanford Sleep EpidemiologyResearch Center at Stanford University in California. but researchers in Israel have found that caf-feinated coffee halves the body&39;s levels of this sleep hormone.

Lotan Shilo and ateam at the Sapir Medical Center in Tel Aviv University found that six vol-unteers slept less well after acup of caffeinated coffee than after drinking the same amount of de-caf. On average, subjects slept 336 minutes per night after drinking caffeinated coffee, comparedwith 415 minutes after decaf. They also took half an hour to drop off--twice as long as usual--andjigged around in bed twice as much.

In the second phase of the experiment, the researchers woke the volunteers every three hoursand asked them to give aurine sample. Shilo measured concentrations of abreakdown product ofmelatonin. The results suggest that melatonin concentrations in caffeine drinkers were half those indecaf drinkers. In apaper accepted for publication in Sleep Medicine, the researchers suggest thatcaffeine blocks production of the enzyme that drives tnelatonin production.

because it can take many hours to eliminate caffeine from the body, Ohayon recommends thatcoffee lovers switch to decaf after lunch.

The author mentions" pick-me-up" to indicate that__________. 查看材料

A.melatonin levels need to be raised

B.neurohormone can wake us up

C.coffee is astimulant
