【題目】 Getting a high grade in an exam depends partly on how much you can remember. So, improving memory is essential to success in studying. But is there anything that we can do about it? One solution might be walking backwards.

According to a new study published in the Journal of Cognition, walking backwards, whether doing it really or just imagining it, can boost (增強(qiáng)) the brainpower in the short term.

In the study, 114 volunteers were asked to watch a video in which a woman had her bag stolen. Then they answered 20 questions about the details shown in the video. Ten minutes after watching the video, the volunteers were divided into three groups. The first two groups were told to move forwards or backwards 10 meters while the third group was asked to stay still on the same point. The researchers found that the backwards-walking group got two more correct answers on average than the other two groups. This suggests that a relationship between the concepts (概念) of time and space is essential to the way our minds form memories.

When we walk backwards, everything we learn becomes strange to us. "This forces the brain to think in a different way—it's a rewiring and changes the focus," US neuropsychologist (神經(jīng)心理學(xué)家) Christine Weber told Forbes. It almost always means that our brain needs to be more active and alert in the limited time. Naturally, our short-term memory will be improved significantly.

Apart from improving our memory, walking backwards also plays an important role in physical health, especially fitness. A study published in Journal of Biomechanics in 2012 found that backward walking puts less strain and requires a smaller range of movements from the knee joints (膝關(guān)節(jié)). Thus, there's less pressure and pain in the knees.

In addition, walking backwards, compared to forward walking, is more challenging. It requires you to use muscles and movements that you probably rarely use, making it a perfect way to change your exercise routine for greater fitness gains. Meanwhile, by making people put in extra effort, it naturally burns more fat and calories.

【1】Which group of people perform best in the memory test?

A.The staying-still group.B.The forwards-walking group.

C.The imaginary-walking group.D.The backwards-walking group.

【2】In what way does walking backwards benefit people's health?

A.It can make people slim.B.It can reduce peopled stress.

C.It can strengthen people's joints.D.It can make people more energetic.

【3】What do we know about backward walking?

A.It follows our exercise routine.

B.It limits people's thinking time.

C.It directs our focus to important details.

D.It makes people's brain more active and alert.

【4】What's the writer's purpose in writing paragraph 4?

A.To add another aspect of the topic.

B.To support the result of the research.

C.To sum up the main idea of the passage.

D.To provide some background information.

【題目】 It's free and requires no equipment. Besides, the scenery can be amazing. It's no wonder running is among the world’ s most popular sports. Research suggests running can significantly improve your health. 【1】

Running just once a week, or 50 minutes a week, reduces the risk of death at a given point in time. 【2】 This is good news for those who don't have much time on their hands for exercise. But it shouldn't discourage those who enjoy running longer and more often. We found even "hardcore" running (for example, every day or four hours a week) is beneficial for health. Nor do the benefits necessarily increase by running at high speeds. We found similar benefits for running at any speed between 8 and 13 km/h. It might be that running at your own "most comfortable pace" is the best for your health.

【3】 Running may lead to overuse injuries. These occur as a consequence of repeated mechanical stress on the tissue without enough time for recovery. Sudden death is also likely to happen during exercise, though, this occurs very rarely.

Therefore, for beginning runners, start slow and gradually increase the pace, duration and weekly frequency. Set your aim at 50 minutes a week or more, and run at a comfortable speed.

If you don't like running alone, consider doing it along with others. 【4】 It can be hard to start running, but it shouldn't be too hard. 【5】 There are more than 800 other interesting sports to choose from. The benefits of many other sports (such as swimming, tennis, cycling and aerobics) are comparable to the ones found for running.

A.If you don't like running, don't force it.

B.However, keep it in mind that there are risks as well.

C.It also indicates you needn't run fast or far to gain the benefit.

D.It can increase your motivation and provide a fun social experience.

E.Running may help you live longer but more isn't necessarily better.

F.The benefit doesn't seem to increase or decrease with higher amounts of running.

G.Doing it in many sessions spread across the week brings much more benefits.

【題目】 The time-out (暫停)is a method to punish your children's misbehavior (不當(dāng)行為).Children are taken away from their present situation for a few minutes. During the time-out they are put in a place and not allowed to do anything. It's a great way to help your children calm down and realize their shortcomings. 【1】.

Decide what is worth a time-out

Find a quiet moment to discuss a time-out principle for your family, determining where you'll give time-outs, for what reasons, and for how long. 【2】. And you can make your first time-out feel prepared and calm.

Give a warning

Instead of suddenly giving a time-out to your children, warn them that they'll get one if they continue to be naughty. 【3】. At this age children are often angry without realizing it.

Giving them a time-out can make them calm. Some kids dislike time-outs very much, so that finally the warning itself does the job. However, warnings are not enough. When your children hit, kick, or bite someone, use a time-out right away.

【4】

It's a good idea to choose a time-out place, such as a chair or the end of a hallway. But remember that the place you choose needs to be safe and shouldn't be frightening.

Decide how long time-outs will last

【5】. Your children should have enough time to stop misbehaving and calm down. If it is too short or too long, your children may forget the punishment or become upset. Many experts advise one minute per year of your children's age. You can watch the clock yourself or set an alarm clock and tell them that the punishment is over when it rings.

A. Select a place

B. Use time-out regularly

C. A time-out needs enough time

D. You needn't make decisions in a hurry

E. Here are a few ways to make it work for you

F. Give your children hugs and kisses after the time-out
