Aristotle, the

19、philosopher of ancient Greece, thought that the mind was based in the heart. It was not until the 18th century that man realized that the whole of the brain was involved in the workings of the mind.During the 19th century scientists found that when certain parts of the brain were damaged, men lost t

20、he ability to do certain things. And so, people thought that each part of the brain controlled a different activity. But modern research has found that this is not so. It is not easy to say exactly what each part of the brain does.In the past 50 years there has been a great increase in the amount of

21、 research being done on the brain. Chemists and biologists have found that the way the brain works is far more complicated than they had thought. In fact, many people believe that we are only now really starting to learn the truth about how the human brain works. The more scientists find out, the mo

22、re questions they are unable to answer. For instance, chemists have found that over 100,000 chemical reactions take place in the brain every second. Mathematicians who have tried to use computers to copy the way the brain works have found that even using the latest electronic equipment they would ha

23、ve to build a computer which weighed over 10,000 kilos. Some recent research also suggests that we remember everything that happens to us. We may not be able to recall this information, but it is all stored in our brains.Scientists hope that if we can discover how the brain works, the better use we

24、will be able to put it to. For example, how do we learn language? Some children learn to speak, read and write when they are very young compared to average children. But scientists are not sure why this happens. They are trying to find out whether there is something about the way we teach language t

25、o children which in fact prevents children from learning sooner.41 What does the author want to convey in the passage?（A）The author describes the latest findings made in this field.（B） The history and future of brain researches.（C） The complexity of our brain.（D）What we can get from researching the

26、brain.42 What does the author mention in the history of the brain study?（A）Ancient people thought the brain was much more important than the heart.（B） Scientists in 19 th century believe that all parts of the brain work together to control one activity.（C） Aristotle thought that our heart is the con

27、trolling center of the activity.（D）People gradually noticed the importance of the brain over time.43 The sentence “ that man realized that the whole of the brain was involved in the workings of the mind“ (Para. 2) implicates all the statements below EXCEPT_.（A）the brain, instead of the heart, is in

28、charge of our thinking（B） the whole brain takes part in our mind activity（C） the brain is all we need when our mind is working（D）every part of the brain is used when we are thinking44 What is NOT true according to the author?（A）Mathematicians built a computer to copy the way the brain works.（B） We a

29、re far from knowing the truth of the brain.（C） Before we can fully use the brain, we should discover how it works.（D）We cannot recall everything that is stored in the brain.45 Which of the following best describes the author s tone in this passage?（A）Optimistic.（B） Arbitrary.（C） Critical.（D）Objectiv

30、e.45 For many people, having your own business sounds like the perfect job. You can do work that you love. You can set your own business schedule and wear jeans to work. You never have to listen to a boss, and you make all the decisions yourself. You can even raise your salary any time you want.But

31、the reality is different. “Having your own business can be lonely,“ says David Paik. After working for an advertising agency for six years, he started a website design business at home. His first income in the first two months was $ 0. Finally, he got a big project creating a website for a magazine.

32、 Then he had a new problem: his schedule. “ I was working twelve hours a day, seven days a week, because I didn t have employees to help me.“ Today, Paik Web Design is successful, but David says, “I really wasn t prepared to be a business owner. I didnt understand the challenges. “Some of the challe

33、nges are practical. With no boss, it s easy to take too much time off and get too little work done. With no co-workers, you might feel bored or lonely. You have to pay for your own benefits like vacations, insurance, and a retirement plan. And if you make a bad business decision, you could lose all

34、the money you invested. For all of the reasons, more than half of all new businesses fail within one year.Another problem is balancing work with personal life. As a business owner, you cant just stop at 5 p. m. and forget about your work until tomorrow. Even when Im watching TV in the evening, I m a

35、lways thinking about my clients and my projects,“ says David Paik.Still, hundreds of people around the world start business every day, and most enjoy the experience. “There are lots of advantages to having your own business,“ says Denise Williams, the owner of a women s clothing store. “You can deci

36、de exactly how to do your work, how much money you want to make, and who will work for you. “ Williams borrowed money from family members to get her business started. She began by making and selling T-shirts in her apartment, and she has just opened a new, large store.Laura Castro, owner of a transl

37、ation service, agrees. “When you are your own boss, there are no limits. I started five years ago, translating Spanish and English. Now I have employees who work with six different languages. And five years from now? I can t imagine!“ she smiles.46 According to David Paik, being your own boss is_.（A

38、）enjoyable（B） perfect（C） challenging（D）easy47 One of the advantages of being a business owner is_.（A）making your own decisions（B） being free most of time（C） working at home（D）having employees to help48 In the sentence “Some of the challenges are practical“ (Para. 3), “practical“ means_.（A）difficult（

39、B） clear（C） complicated（D）realistic49 According to the passage, more than 50% of all the new business fail within one year because of_.（A）no boss（B） no co-workers（C） bad decisions making（D）all of above50 Which of the following statements is TRUE?（A）You can get higher salaries if you are your own bos

40、s.（B） Life can be hard if you run your own business.（C） There is no advantages of being a business owner.（D）All who run their own business enjoy their experience.50 Here s some good news for parents of tweens and teens: you rule.That may be hard to believe sometimes. And its true kids wont always fo

41、llow your health and safety rules. But studies show parents who keep setting boundaries make a huge difference.The latest example is a survey on media use by the Kaiser Family Foundation. It found that typical kids ages 8 to 18 spend an astonishing 7 hours and 38 minutes a day consuming entertainmen

42、t media, indulging deeply in TV, computers , games,cellphones, music players and other devices while occasionally glancing at books and other non-electronic media. Many experts, including the pediatrics (儿科学) academy, consider that much screen time is bad for mental and physical health.But the study

43、 also found that kids whose parents set any time or content limits were plugged in for three hours less each day. “ Parents can have a big influence,“ says Kaiser researcher Vicky Rideout.“ The reality is that teenagers care deeply what their parents think,“ says Kenneth Cinsburg, a specialist of th

44、e Children s Hospital of Philadelphia. “ The challenge for parents is to get across rules and boundaries in a way that doesn t feel controlling. “Research shows that parents who set firm rules but explain and enforce in a warm supportive way work better than those who set no rules, fail to enforce t

45、hem or rule with a “because I said so“ iron grip.Ideally, “ kids understand the rules are about their well-being and safety,“ Ginsburg says.Still, achieving just-right parenting is “ challenging“ , says Margaret Broe-Fitzpatrick, a teacher in Kensington, Md. , who has four children, ages 8 to 16. “T

46、here are so many different things to keep track of. “ She and her husband keep their kids busy with sports and other activities, limit screen time and review the music their children download. They talk with their 16-year-old son about the rules hell face when he gets a driver s license soon. But, s

47、he says, they can t police everything the kids encounter on the Internet or in friends homes.“We re just doing the best we can,“ she says, “even if young people may protest at first, they do feel more safe and secure when limits are set. “51 The survey by the Kaiser Family Foundation is mentioned to

48、 illustrate the idea that_.（A）kids don t always follow parents rules（B） only few parents believe the good news（C） much media use results in bad health（D）parents rules make a huge difference52 What did the kids do when parents set any time or content limits, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation?

49、（A）They spent more time staying outdoors.（B） They accepted parents rules unwillingly.（C） They appreciated their parents love.（D）They cut down on theirfscreen time.53 What will Kenneth Ginsburg most probably suggest that parents should do?（A）Avoid setting firm rules.（B） Set rules that are easy to understand.（C） Avo
