It needs exercis

11、e. Mental (done with the mind) exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the o

12、ther hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot,

13、then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” or “You are such a smart child.”- 4 -21.

19、hat, he joined a health club. He exercised every day and ate less food. At the end of three months, however, he began making excuses about why he couldnt go there more often.After the health club failed to work, he joined Weight Watchers but stopped going because he was the only man there.

23、 find more and more information that suggests a connection between exercises and brain development. Judy Camerson, a scientist at Oregon Health and Science University, studies brain development. According to her research, it seems that exercise can make blood vessels(血管),including those in the brain

24、, - 6 -stronger and more fully developed. Dr. Cameron is sure that this allows people who exercise to think better. As she says, “While we already know that exercise is good for the heart, exercise can actually cause physical changes in the brain.”The effects of exercise on brain development can eve

25、n be seen in babies. Babies who do activities that require a lot of movement show greater brain development than babies who are less physically active. Even a little movement can show big results. Margaret Barnes, a scientist, also believes in the importance of exercise. She thinks that many learnin

26、g disabilities that children have in primary school or high school can result from a lack of movement as babies. “Babies need movement that encourages and excites their five senses. They need to set up a connection between motion and memory. In this way, as they get older, children will begin to con

27、nect physical activity with higher learning.” says Margaret.Older people can develop their brains as well. Cornell University studied a group of seniors who have a short-term memory increase of up to 40 percent after exercising just three hours a week. The exercise does not have to be very difficult

28、, but it does have to increase the heart rate. Also, just like the motion for babies, exercise for older people should not be too simple. Learning some new skills or actions, such as with yoga or taichi helps to open up memory paths in the brain that may not have been used for a long time. For most

29、people, any type of physical activity that increases the heart rate is helpful. The main aim is to increase the brains flow of blood.

For ordinary people, the smallest amount of exercise required to gain any benefit is _.A. two hours per week B. 40 hours per week C. three hours per week D. 40 hours per month32. Why is yoga suggested for seniors

32、?A. It does good to the joints of old people. B. It does not increase the heart rate.C. It includes learning new actions. D.
