Scientists have found a new use for children’s imaginations(想象力)—to make Stomachaches go away.
The BBC reports a new study that shows: “Children can be taught to use their Imaginations to deal with stomachaches.” This may be very good news for parents who need a quick cure for their sick children.
Any mother or father understands the stomach problem is one of the most frequent(时常发生的) things their children complain about. Around twenty percent of children suffer from stomachaches that doctors cannot find a reason for.
This new research is especially good for kids with active imaginations. Researchers found that the more creative the child is, the better he or she is at imagining the pain away.
The researchers used a relaxing CD with children. A voice guided them through different fantasy(幻想) situations. One of these was pretending to be floating on a cloud. Thirty children took part in the tests. Half of them used the “guided imagery” method, and the other half received normal medicines. Researchers found 73.3 percent of the CD users reported a reduction in pain. This compared to only 26.7 percent of kids who got normal treatment.
Study leader Dr Miranda Tilburg was very excited about her findings. She believed that it was a very cheap and easy way to stop children’s stomachaches. She said it would not work as well with adults.
1.The new study may be good news for those who____________.
A. have less imaginations
B. don’t know how to relax

2.What kind of kids will benefit most from the new research?
A. Kids who like listening to music.
B. Kids who are good at remembering things.
C. The independent(独立的) kids.

A. adults can also use their imaginations to make stomachaches go away
B. Dr Miranda Tilburg wasn’t pleased with her findings
C. the normal cure for stomachaches will not be used

We have found plastic in the ocean and in animals. But for the first time, scientists have found plastic in human poop（粪便）,USA Today reported.
The findings came from a study by scientists from Environment Agency Austria. The researchers followed eight healthy volunteers from different parts of the world. The volunteers wrote down what they ate for a week and then provided a stool sample（大便样本）for testing.
Scientists found nine different types of plastic particles（ 颗粒）in the samples. “The smallest plastic particles are able to enter the bloodstream, the lymphatic system （淋巴系统）,and may even reach the liver（肝脏）”said Philipp Schwabl, who took part in the research.
However, the scientists aren't sure if this plastic is harmful to humans. They're not sure how the plastic got into the volunteers' bodies, either. But most of the volunteers said they drank from plastic bottles and also ate seafood that could include plastic from ocean pollution.
In fact, plastic is everywhere around us. Every year, about 8 million tons of plastic waste goes into the oceans. There, sunlight and waves break the plastic down to small particles. Most of the particles stay in the ocean. Others can spread into the soil and air. Could plastic in the air fall onto food and get into the human body?
According to USA Today, 90 percent of sea salt sold in the world includes plastic. And even some top water has been found to have plastic particles in it.
1.According to USA Today, what have scientists found for the first time?
A.Plastic in the ocean. B.Plastic in animals.
C.Plastic in human poop. D.Plastic in the soil.
2.The researchers________according to the second paragraph.
A.followed eight healthy volunteers. B.are from Environment Agency Australia
C.wrote down what they ate for a week D.provided a stool sample for testing
3.Paragraph 3 is written to tell us that________
A.plastic particles can be a few different sizes B.plastic particles can reach many parts of our bodies
C.plastic can harm the lymphatic system D.plastic particles are inside all of us
4.What can we infer （推断） from the study?
A.Plastic does no harm to our bodies.
B.The best way to deal with plastic waste is to burn it.
C.People should stop drinking tap（水龙头）water.
D.It can be hard to avoid plastic in food and drinks.

Learning with Legos For more than 60 years, Lego bricks（砖块） have developed children's imaginations. Now, a new form of these toys is called Lego Braille Bricks. It is being tested around the world.
Lego Braille Bricks are designed to help people learn Braille（盲文）. That's a system of writing in which letters are replaced by raised knobs（凸起）. The small knobs on the bricks are put as Braille letters. Blind children can use their fingertips to read the knobs to learn Braille. According to the World Health Organization, 36 million people worldwide are blind. In the United States, only 10% of blind children learn Braille. Lego Braille Bricks can help change that.
Braille Bricks will be launched（上市） by Lego in 2020. For some schools, it will be free. The Danish Association of the Blind was one of the first organizations to come up with the idea of using Lego bricks to teach Braille. Thorkild Olesen, the president of the organization, is blind. He says many teachers don't have the tools and skills to help kids learn Braille. So they teach with audio tools, such as audio books. "Like any other people, we need to express ourselves in writing, " Olesen told TIME for Kids." Audio is great. But it can never replace Braille. Braille is the most important tool for us. It is the best way for blind people to learn to spell correctly, write, and read like common people."
Olesen's organization shared his idea for Braille Bricks with the Lego Foundation（基金会）. Olesen explained to the toy maker that the knobs on Legos are similar to Braille letters. Stine Storm is a project manager at the Lego Foundation. She liked the idea of turning Lego bricks into a learning tool. "It was a fun and playful way to teach Braille to blind children," she says, "Lego Braille Bricks will also have printed letters on them that match the Braille letters, so sighted children and blind children can play with the Legos together."
What is the new form of the toy called? 1.
How can blind children learn Braille with Lego Braille Bricks? 2.
When will Braille Bricks be launched by Lego? 3.
Why is Braille the most important tool for blind people? 4.
Why does Stine Storm like the idea of turning Lego bricks into a learning tool? 5.
