AFlights often mean risky security, long layovers and unexpected delays, which can sometimes make for unpleasant travel experiences. Still, your airport journey doesn’t always have to be terrible. Here are some cool airports that will make you forget about all your travel baggage:Hamad International Airport, QatarThis $16-billion airport screams luxury. It features a 25-metre-long swimming pool. The airport is also equipped with quiet rooms, ideal for passengers seeking a pre-flight snooze. There is a giant dinosaur robot and a 23-foot-tall Urs Fischer sculpture of a yellow teddy bear.Changi Airport, SingaporeI f you didn’t get enough shopping done during your trip, then Changi Airport is the perfect place for you. There are over 300 retail stores available and two movies theatres —free of charge —for you to take advantage of. There’s also a fascinating butterfly garden. Here, you can find a rainforest-themed garden with about 1,000 butterflies surrounded by flowering plants and a six-metre grotto waterfall.Hong Kong International Airport, Hong KongHave you ever wondered what it’s like to fly a plane? If you have, then head over to the Aviation Discovery Centre and hop on the plane cabin simulator. This ride allows passengers to see what it’s like to actually fly a plane. Pretty cool if you’re about to board a real flight in a couple of hours. This airport is also home to an 1MAX theatre and an indoor, multimedia golf course.Helsinki Airport, FinlandI f you have an appreciation for art, then you’ll love your layover in Helsinki.It’s the MoMa of airports, complete with a 24-hour art gallery and aviation museum. There are paintings and art installations all over the building. Passengers can also relax between flights in a sleeping pod, an ergonomic seat/bed complete with a pull-up cover to keep out light and noise, storageyou’re your carry-on under the seat, anda power outlet for your phone or laptop.21. At Changi Airport, Singapore, passengers have a chance to ________.A. watch a movie with butterflies around themB. make purchases free of charge in the retail storesC. enjoy the beauty or a waterfallD. take photos with a yellow teddy bear22. lf you would like to fly a plane, which airport do you like most?A. Hamad International Airport, Qatar.B. Changi Airport, Singapore.C. Hong Kong International Airport, Hong Kong.D. Helsinki Airport, Finland.23. According to the passage, what’s the similarity between Hamad InternationalAirport and Helsinki Airport?A. Their quiet space for rest.B. Their luxurious decoration style.C. Their rich artistic atmosphere.D. Their high-tech equipment.BIn a foreign country, a man visited a local restaurant. He didn’t speak their language. He ordered something indecipherable off the menu. When the waiter brought him a plate of delicious looking fried noodles, he smiled and made an OK sign at the waiter with his thumb and forefinger linked in a circle. Looking angry, the waiter then picked up the dish and thrown it to his lap. What he did wrong, he wondered. Well, nothing is quite as it seems when it comes to using hand gesture in another country.Gestures have been used to replace words in many countries, and they are often specific to a given culture. Gesture may mean something complimentary in one culture, but is highly offensive in another.The gesture “thumb-up” is commonly misinterpreted. In English, it is popularly known as ‘thumbs up’, despite the fact that the action is commonly performed withonly one hand. English-speaking Caucasians use it to signal ‘OK’, whi ch is the same meaning as O.K. ring gesture. The two can in fact be used almost interchangeably. Avoid using this gesture in Southern Sardina or Northern Greece unless you want to invite a fight. While American, British and Australian would use the thumb up to signal hitch-hiking to the drivers, this message will not encourage a Greek driver or motorist to stop to give them a ride.There are no right or wrong signals, only cultural differences. Lack of cultural understanding will lead to disharmony among people from different cultures. When we know what to look for, such encounters with other cultures are actually very interesting, fascinating and fun. It is certainly a great topic to discuss over a cup of coffee and cakes.24. What did the man in the first paragraph do wrong?A. He misunderstood the waiter.B. He didn’t realize cultural differences.C. He ordered something off the menu.D. He made the signal in a rude way.25. What does the underlined word in the second paragraph mean?A. Full of admiration.B. Full of aggression.C. Full of complexity.D. Full of certainty.26. What will happen if you make a thumb up toward a man in Northern Greece?A. He will stop to give you a lift.B. He will get annoyed and fight against you.C. He will ask you to give him a lift.D. He will make the same signal toward you.27. What’s the purpose of the passage?A. To explain the meaning of different gestures.B. To tell stories about different cultures.C. To advise us to have an understanding of cultural differences.D. To persuade people from different countries live in harmony.CIn the last few weeks, donations have been mailed to community organizations inand near Redford Township by the sender who only identifies as “Anonymous - 1679”, according to My Fox Detroit.So far, envelopes, each filled with $1,000 cash, have been sent to the local library, an animal welfare non-profit, a civic and leadership training group, a credit union and the Redford Goodfellows, a group that helps needy families get holiday meals and gifts for their children.There is one clue about the identity of the giver. According to the Observer & Eccentric, the Community Choice Credit Union in Redford received the first envelope, which also included a riddle: “Know the clue, Know the who, Anonymo us - 1679.” Spread around one community, the donations could make a serious impact.The credit union told the paper that the donation will go to their foundation, which gives up to $100,000 in college scholarships to Michigan high school graduates each year.Tail Waggers 1990 in nearby Livonia helps owners provide for their pets, offering low-cost vaccinations, a pet food pantry and assistance for pets with serious health problems. Their donation will go toward their new animal clinic, they told Fox.Cindy Doyle, secretary for the Redford Goodfellows, said that their $1,000 donation will likely cover food, clothes and presents for 10 families; last year the organization served 225 families total.“That money will go a long way to brighten the Christmas of se veral children this year,” the Redford Township Police posted on Facebook, on behalf of their department and the Good fellows.“To that generous person... Thank You!”Anonymous 1679 has given more than money —he or she has also directed attention to some of the organizations helping the community, and may even inspire others to give. Potential donors should keep in mind that while receiving mysterious cash in the mail may be exciting, the U.S. Postal Service recommends sending money orders rather than currency in case mail is lost or stolen.28. According to the passage, envelops have been mailed to the following except ________.。

Five volunteers take turns to be responsible for accepting food and cleaning the fridge.“I think this is a brilliant idea, and would be even better if it can spring up around the city,”a 79-year-old resident Zhu Guoxin told Shanghai Daily.“However, I hope in the future individual residents can also be able to put their leftovers or other edible snacks here. Just ___25___ the scheme in Spain.”26______ ______ the shared fridge, the community and Shanghai Oasis Public Service Development Center are also working on a food bank scheme ___27___（serve）low-income families as well as providing medical treatment in the community.“Packaged food that can be preserved for a long time will be put in food bank to serve residents most in need,”said Ella Zhang, the program director with the public service center, “___28___ cooked food or fresh food will be sent to the sharing fridge”.

Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.Would you be happier if you spent more time discussing the state of the world and the meaning of life--- and less time talking about the weather?It may sound counterintuitive（违反直觉的）, but people who spend more of their day having deep discussions and less time engaging in small talk seem to be happier, said Matthias Mehl, a psychologist at the University of Arizona who published a study on the ___31___.“We found this so interesting, because it could have gone the other way — it could have been ‘Don't worry, be happy’ — as long as you surf on the ___32___ level of life you're happy, and if you go into the essential depths you'll be unhappy,” Dr. Mehl said.But, he ___33___, deep conversation seemed to hold the ___34___ to happiness for two main reasons: both because human beings are driven to find and create ___35___ in their lives, and because we are social animals who want and need to ___36___ with other people.“By engaging in meaningful conversations, we manage to impose meaning on a(n) ___37___ pretty messy world,”Dr. Mehl said.“And interpersonally, as you find this meaning, you bond with your interactive partner, and we know that interpersonal connection and integration is a core ___38___ foundation of happiness.”Dr. Mehl’s study was small and doesn’t ___39___ a cause-and-effect relationship between the kind of conversations one has and one’s happiness. But that’s the ___40___ next step, when he will ask people to increase the number of deep conversations they have each day and cut back on small talk, and vice versa.Ⅱ. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections：For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C, and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Robert Frank, an economist at Cornell, believes that his profession is restricting cooperation and generosity. In the U.S., economics professors give __41__ money to charity than professors in other fields. Economics students in Germany are more likely than those from other majors to recommend an overpriced plumber (水管工) when they are paid to do it. Economics majors tend to rate __42__ as “generally good,” “correct,” and “moral” more than their peers.Does studying economics change people? Maybe not. It could be self-selection: students who already believe in self-interest are __43__ to economics. But this doesn't exclude the possibility that studying economics pushes people further toward the selfish extreme. By spending time with like-minded people, economics students may become __44__ that selfishness is widespread and reasonable -- or at least that giving is rare and foolish.“As a business school professor, these effects worry me, as economics, __45__ every aspect of our lives, is taught widely in business schools, providing a __46__ for courses in management, finance, and accounting.” says Frank.If economics can __47__ pro-social behavior, which is central to the well-being of people or society, what should we do about it? A change in economics and business __48__ is suggested. Courses in behavioral economics, which considers the role of “social preferences” like __49__, fairness and cooperation, are required for students of economics major. In fact, economics courses not involving some behavioral economics are considered both an ___50___ education and a poor preparation to be a practising economist. Also, __51__ width, economics majors are required to take courses in social sciences like sociology and psychology, which place considerable emphasis on how people are __52__ about others, not only themselves. __53__, within economics courses, we should do a better job __54__ the principle of self-interest, which involves anything a person values -- including helping others.Not until then may the prophecy (预言) by Nobel Prize-winning economist and philosopher Amartya Sen be __55__.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them in passage A, B, and C. There are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.（A）It was Saturday. As always, it was a busy one, for“Six days shall you labor and do all your work”was taken seriously back then. Outside, Father and Mr. Patrick next door were busy chopping firewood. Inside their own houses, Mother and Mrs. Patrick were engaged in spring cleaning.Somehow the boys had slipped away to the back lot with their kites. Now, even at the risk of having Brother caught to beat carpets, they had sent him to the kitchen for string (线). It seemed there was no limit to the heights to which kites would fly today.My mother looked at the sitting room, its furniture disordered for a thorough sweeping. Again she cast a look toward the window. “Come on, girls! Let’s take string to the boys and watch them.”On the way we met Mrs. Patrick, laughing guiltily as if she were doing something wrong, together with her girls.There never was such a day for flying kited! We played all our fresh string into the boys’ kites and they went up higher and higher. We could hardly distinguish the orange-colored spots of the kites. Now and then we slowly pulled one kite back, watching it dancing up and down it the wind, and finally bringing it down to earth, just for the joy of sending it up again.Even our fathers dropped their tools and joined us. Our mothers took their turn, laughing like schoolgirls. I think we were all beside ourselves. Parents forgot their duty and their dignity; children forgot their everyday fights and little jealousies. “Perhaps it’s like this in the kingdom of heaven,”I thought confusedly.It was growing dark before we all walked sleepily back to house. I suppose we had some sort of supper. I suppose there must have been a surface tidying-up, for the house on Sunday looked clean and orderly enough. The strange thing was, we didn’t mention that day afterward. I felt a little embarrassed. Surely none of the others had been as excited as I. I locked the memory up in that deepest part of me where we keep “the things that cannot be and yet they are.”The years went on, then one day I was hurrying about my kitchen in a city apartment, trying to get some work out of the way while my three-year-old insistently cried her desire to “go park, see duck.”“I can’t go!”I said. “I have this and this to do, and when I’m through I’ll be too tired to walk that far.”My mother, who was visiting us, looked up from the peas she was shelling, “It’s a wonderful day,” she offered, “really warm, yet there’s a fine breczc. Do you remember that day we flew kites?”I stopped in my dash between stove and sink. The looked door flew open and with it a rush of memories. “Come on.”I told my little girl. “You’re right, it’s too good a day to miss.”Another decade passed. We were in the aftermath (余波) of a great war. All evening we had been asking our returned soldier, the youngest Patrick Boy, about his experiences as a prisoner of war. He had talked freely, but now for a long time he had been silent. What was he thinking of – what dark and horrible things?“Say!” A smile slipped out from his lips. “Do you remember --- no, of course you wouldn’t. It probably didn’t make the impression on you as it did on me.”I hardly dared speak. “Remember what?”“I used to think of that day a lot in POW camp(战俘营), when things weren’t too good. Do you remember the day we flew the kites?”56. By“we were all besides ourselves,”the writer means that they all _____.A. felt confusedB. went wild with joyC. looked onD. forgot their fights57. What did the writer think after the kite-flying?A. The boys must have had more fun than the girls.B. They should have finished their work before playing.C. Her parents should spend more time with them.D. All the others must have forgotten that day.58. Why did the writer finally agree to take her little girl for an outing?A. She suddenly remembered her duty as a mother.B. She was reminded of the day they flew kites.C. She had finished her work in the kitchen.D. She thought it was a great day to play outside.59. The youngest Patrick Boy is mentioned to show that _____.A. the writer was not alone in treasuring her fond memoriesB. his experience in POW camp threw a shadow over his lifeC. childhood friendship means so much to the writerD. people like him really changed a lot after the war（B）A team of U.S. and Ethiopian scientists has discovered the fossilized（变为化石的）remains of what they believe is humankind’s first walking ancestor, a hominid（原始人）that lived in the wooded grasslands of the Horn of Africa nearly 4 million years ago.The bones were discovered in February at a new site called Mile, in the northern African region of Ethiopia. They are considered to be 3.8-4 million years old. The fossil include a complete tibia（胫骨）from the lower part of the leg, parts of a high-bone, ribs, vertebrae（脊椎）, a collar-bone, pelvis（骨盆）and a complete shoulder-blade. There also is an ankle bone which, with the tibia, proves they walked upright.The bones are the latest in a growing collection of early human ones that help explain the development history of man.“Right now we can say this is the world’s oldest bipedal---an animal walking on two feet and what makes this important is because what makes us human is walking upright,”Latimer said.“This new discovery will give us a picture of how our 4-million-year-old ancestors walked upright. It opens the door on a poorly known period and it will help us understand the early periods of human evolution（演化）before Lucy.”Paleontologists（古生物学家）before discovered in Ethiopia the remains of Ardipithecus-ramidus, a traditional part with important ape characteristics dating as far back as 4.5 million years but there is some argument over whether it walked upright on two legs. Scientists know little about A. ramidus. A few skeletal bones suggest it was even smaller than Australopithecus afarensis, the 3.2 million-year-old species known by the nearly complete“Lucy”fossil.Scientists are yet to classify the new find, which they believe falls between A. ramidus and A. afarensis. The fossil would help join the two parts. “It is a once in a lifetime find ,” latimer said.60. The passage mainly tells readers that ______.A. a bone was discovered in EthiopiaB. there is a once in a lifetime find in EthiopiaC. remains discovered in Ethiopia may be the oldest walking hominidD. human evolution before Lucy is completely known61. Which of the following can prove whether humans can walk upright?A. The thigh-bone and ribs.B. The ankle bones and tibia.C. The tibia and vertebrae.D. The pelvis and shoulder-blade.62. Which of the following shows the right order according to the timeline?（C）There was a time, not that long ago, when women were considered smart if they played dumb to get a man, and women who went to college were more interested in getting a“Mrs. Degree”than a bachelor’s. Even today, it’s not unusual for a woman to get whispered and unrequested counsel from her grandmother that an advanced degree could hurt her in the marriage market."There were so many misperceptions out there about education and marriage that I decided to sort out the facts," said economist Betsey Stevenson, an assistant professor at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. So along with Wharton colleague Adam Isen, Stevenson calculated national marriage data from 1950 to 2008 and found that the marriage penalty women once paid for being well educated has largely disappeared."In other words, the difference in marriage rates between those with college degrees and those without is very small," said Stephanie Coontz, a family historian at Evergreen State College. The new analysis also found that while high-school dropouts had the highest marriage rates in the 1950s, today college-educated women are more likely tomarry than those who don’t finish high school.Of course, expectations have changed dramatically in the last half century. "In the 1950s, a lot of women thought they needed to marry right away," Coontz said. "Real wages were rising so quickly that men in their 20s could afford to marry early. But they didn’t want a woman who was their equal. Men needed and wanted someone who knew less." In fact, she said, research published in 1946 documented that 40 percent of college women admitted to playing dumb on dates. "These days, few women feel the need to play down their intelligence or achievements," Coontz said.The new research has more good news for college grads. Stevenson said the data indicate that modern college-educated women are more likely to be married before age 40, are less likely to divorce, and are more likely to describe their marriages as "happy". The marriages of well-educated women tend to be more stable because the brides are usually older as well as wiser, Stevenson said.63. Not long ago, it was believed that women went to college in order to ___.A. find a husbandB. get smart in the marriage marketC. learn to be a good wifeD. marry someone with a bachelor’s degree64. According to the first paragraph, what grandmother whispers to her granddaughter is usually______.A. taken as a warningB. regarded as out-of-dateC. given voluntarilyD. accepted unwillingly65. What did Betsey Stevenson find about well-educated women in the past?A. Their marriage rate was higher than at present.B. Their marriage rate was lower than at present.C. Their divorce rate was higher than at present.D. Their divorce rate was lower than at present.66. The effect of education on marriage has been found to be _____.A. favorableB. insignificantC. long-lastingD. extensiveSection CDirections：Read the following passage and fill in each blank with the sentence that best fits the context. EachFigure skating as we know it got its start in the mid-19th century. At that time, an American named Jackson Haines combined dancing and skating for the first time. Americans did not accept Haines’ technique, so he moved to Vienna, Austria, where he was an immediate success. Some 50 years later, Haines’ style finally caught on in the United States.___67___ Events for pairs and singles first appeared at the London 1908 Summer Games. Ice dancing joined the Olympics in 1976, when the Games were held in Innsbruck, Austria.In single skating, each skater performs a short routine of required steps. ___68___ The pairs event follows the same format, but with one male and one female together.___69___ But unlike pairs skating, ice dance does not include overhead lifts and jumps. An ice dancecompetition is made up of three parts: one set to music that has a required rhythm and tempo, and two parts set to whatever music the ice dancers choose.A panel of nine judges scores the quality of each figure skating performance, but only seven out of nine scores are used. To determine which judges’ scores will be used, there is a random draw before each event. Skaters are given a grade for each step, jump, spin, or any other element that is part of their routine. They also receive an “overall”score for each performance. ___70___第Ⅱ 卷Ⅱ.

ALook around you. Is there Coke in your refrigerator? Is your computer a Dell or Lenovo? From toothpaste to electronics, brands and brand-name products are all around us.It hasn’t always been this way. Before the Industrial Revolution and the age of mass media, brands were far less popular. But since then, brands have become increasingly prominent in our daily lives.In 2006, a container ship, the Cougar Ace, struggled in the Pacific Ocean for several weeks. Its goods included 4,703 brand-new Mazda cars. None of the cars were damaged, but there was still a problem.The ship had floated at a 60-degree angle, which would possibly affec t the cars’ engines, so Mazda decided to destroy all of the cars—including the individual parts. “We couldn’t run the risk of damaging the brand name that Mazda worked so hard over the years to develop.” explained company spokesperson Jeremy Barnes.Brands offer benefits to both the consumers that buy them and the companies that make them. They tie the manufacturer’s reputation to the product and, as a result, brand-name products are often considered as being of superior quality. Brand-name products also tend to have a special look or form. This makes it easier for customer to identify things they are looking for when shopping. It also gives companies a convenient way to get repeat customers and to protect their products through copyright (版权) laws.Thanks to advertising, many brands are associated with certain values, traits and lifestyles. In consequence, the brands we use communicate a message about who we are to others.The business of brands is huge. Together, the world’s 10 biggest brands are valued at more than US $420 billion—the value of the brand names alone.That means that for the companies that own them, brands are more than just product names. They are valuable assets (资产) needed to be protected even if doing so sometimes means losing millions of dollars.1. The first paragraph is written with the purpose of .A. reminding the readers to pay more attention to the brand-productsB. informing the readers of the latest brand-productsC. telling the readers about the brand-productsD. introducing the topic of the passage2. What does the underlined word “prominent” in paragraph 2 probably mean?A. ImportantB. DifferentC. FamousD. Complex3. The example of Mazda is used to show that .A. it is a famous brandB. Shipping is very importantC. The company doesn’t care about the lossD. A brand should be protected at any cost4. What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?A. Brand valuesB. Brand benefitsC. Brand-name productsD. Customer management5. What would be the best title for the text?A. Famous brandsB. Brand disastersC. The business of brandsD. The history of brandsBI live in Japan, where electronic items are a way of life, so it is no surprise that many students carry these little electronic dictionaries. Think of it. That huge, heavy paper dictionary that you used to see in your library looked like a building block in size and weight, yet someone has found a way to change all of that into a plastic box smaller than video cassette tape.E-dictionaries may be lighter and compacter (简洁的), more so than any paper dictionary. They may even contain more words and expressions. It depends on which one you buy. To me, these are pretty much the limits to their advantages.I think e-dictionaries should be limited in their use in classrooms. Let’s take a look at some reasons.E-dictionaries are much more expensive. In Japan, they cost as little as 10,000 yen (US$100) much as 40,000 yen, depending on how many functions you want (or think you want) and depending on how fashionable you are. My trusty Random House paper dictionary is copyrighted at 1995, cost me a mere US$12.95 plus tax.E-dictionaries are more fragile (易碎的). Drop your paper dictionary. Go ahead. Hold it above your head and drop it. Now, trying this with any lightweight plastic e-dictionary, and you’ll be picking the pieces.E-dictionaries need batteries. Batteries are temperature sensitive. Batteries cost money, too.E-dictionaries have keypads. Typing in the spelling of a word is harder and more time consuming than looking through pages and using the index at the top of each page.Let me add a statement about one that really troubles me. Sound. Little devices beep (嘟嘟声) when you press the buttons, but it is very disturbing to some people in a classroom situation or library.Finally, let’s consider making corrections or additions. No dictionary is perfect, paper version or electronic. However, when you find so mething you’d like to change in thee-dictionary, you can’t do anything about it. You can pencil in some notes with the paper type. Similarly, if you learn a word that isn’t in the dictionary, a few notes of a pencil make it easy to increase its memory capacity. But not possible with a keypad model. And, for those students whose habit is to mark certain words with a highlight pen for ease of future reference, again, the paper dictionary wins out.6. What does the author hate most of all the disadvantages?A. Not possible to make additions.B. Wasting more time looking up words.C. Too expensive to buy e-dictionaries and batteries.D. Making sound when pressing the buttons.7. How many disadvantages of e-dictionaries does the author address in the text?A. 4B. 6C. 8D. 108. What is the greatest advantage of the paper dictionary compared with the e-dictionary according to the passage?A. Containing more words and expressions.B. More light and compact to carry.C. Costing less money.D. Making corrections or additions for future reference.9. It can be inferred about e-dictionaries that .A. batteries in e-dictionaries are expensiveB. e-dictionaries can make noises at timesC. e-dictionaries are more easily brokenD. all e-dictionaries are equally expensive10. What’s the main idea of the text?A. The advantages and disadvantages of e-dictionaries from the author’s point of view.B. Electronic items are a way of lie in Japan.C. It’s fashionable to carry little e-dictionaries.D. The bad effect of using e-dictionaries on students and teachers.CCrime has its own cycles, a magazine reported some years ago. Police records that were studied for five years from over 2,400 cities and towns show a surprising link between changes in the seasons and crime patterns. The pattern of crime has varied very little over a long period of years. Murder, moreover, is more than seasonal; it is a weekend crime. It is also a night-time crime: 62 percent of murders are committed between 6 p.m. and 6 a. m.Unlike the summer high in crimes of bodily harm, robbing has a different cycle. You are most likely to be robbed between 6 p.m. and 2 a.m. on a Saturday night in December, January, or February. The month with least crimes of all is in May except for one strange fact. More dog bites are reported in this month than in any other month of the year.Apparently our seasonal cycles of knowledge are completely different from our tendencies for crimes. Professor Huntington made extensive studies to discover the seasons when people read serious books, attend scientific meeting and get highest results on examinations. In all cases, he found a spring high and autumn high separated by a summer low.Possibly, high temperature and high humidity cause our strange and violent summer actions, but police officials are not sure. “There is, of course, no proof of a connection between humidity and murder,” they say, “why murder’s high time should come in the summer time we really don’t know.”A. Crime CyclesB. Summer CrimesC. A Time for MurderD. The Most Peaceful Month12. According to the passage, .A. there is a link between changes in the seasons and crime patternsB. crime is not linked to the cycle of the weekdaysC. there is sure connection between robbing and murderD. there is a connection between murder and cold weather13.

The police are not sure that humidity and murder are related.15. A murder would most likely occur .A. on a weekend night in summerB. on a weekend afternoon in summerC. on a weekend night in winterD. on a weekday afternoon in springDWelcome to Windsor Castle, the oldest and largest occupied castle in the world.

benefits for the brain,in rats at least."This is an animal study,but it shows that physical activity at a young age is very important一not just for physical development,but for the whole lifelong track of cognitive（认知的）development during ageing,"says Martin Wojtowicz of the University of Toronto,Canada."In humans,it may delay the appearance of Alzheimer's symptoms（阿兹海默氏症）,possibly to the point of preventing them."Wojtowicz's team divided 80 young male rats into two equal groups,and placed running wheels in the cages of one group for a period of six weeks.Around four months later—when the rats had reached middle age—the team taught all the rats to connect an electric shock with being in a specific box.When placed in the box,they froze with fear.Two weeks later,the team tested the rats in three situations: exactly the same box in the same room,the same box with the room arranged differently,and a completely different box in a different room.The rats without access to a running wheel when they were young now froze the same percentage of times in each of these situations,suggesting they couldn't remember which one was dangerous.But those that had been able to run in their youth froze 40 to 50 percent less in both changed box settings.“The results suggest the amount of physical activity when we're young,at least for rats,has influence on brain and cognitive health—in the form of better memories—when we're older,"says Arthur Kramer of Northeastern University in Boston,who has found that,in humans,exercise promotes the growth of new brain cells.32.The study shows that______.A.physical activity is important for physical healthing the running wheels is of benefit to the rats' growthC.physical activity can prevent human's Alzheimer's symptomsD.the more exercise a
