Why is it that you can remember the name of your childhood best friend that you haven't seen in years yet easily forget the name of a person you just met a moment ago?In other words, why are some memories stable over decades, while others disappear within minutes?
Caltech researchers carried out their work about memories in the laboratory. The research team developed a test to examine mice's neural(神经的)activity as they learn about and remember a new place. In the test, a mouse was placed in a straight enclosure( 围 场 ), about 5 feet long with white walls. Unique symbols marked different locations along the walls. Sugar water(a treat for mice)was placed at either end of the track.
When a mouse was placed in the track, it was unsure of what to do at first and wandered left and right until it came across the sugar water. In these cases, single neurons were activated when the mouse took notice of a symbol on the wall. Over numerous experiences with the track, the mouse became familiar with it and remembered the locations of the sugar water. As the mouse became more familiar, more and more neurons were activated when seeing each symbol on the wall. Essentially, the mouse was recognizing where it was with respect to each unique symbol.
To study how memories disappear over time, the researchers then kept back the mice from the track for up to 20 days. Upon returning to the track after this break, mice that had formed strong memories encoded(编码)by higher numbers of neurons remembered the task quickly. Even though some neurons showed different activity, the mouse's memory of the track was clearly identifiable when researchers analyzed the activity of large groups of neurons.
This work shows that memories might disappear more rapidly as we age because a memory is encoded by fewer neurons, and if any of these neurons fail, the memory will be lost. The study suggests that one day, designing treatments that could encourage a higher number of neurons to encode a memory could help prevent memory loss.
1.What is the purpose of the first paragraph?

2.During the research, the mouse _______

D.wandered left and right nervously all the time
3.What is special about the mice that remembered the task quickly after the break?
A.They had their neurons show different activity.
B.They love sugar water better than other mice.
C.They stayed in the track for over 20 days.
D.They possessed more activated neurons.
4.What does the last paragraph imply?
A.Mice's memory seems better than humans
B.The aging process of humans is unavoidable.
C.Memory loss is expected to be cured in the future.
D.The study has found the way to prevent neurons from failing.

As you move around your home, take a good look at the things you have. It is likely that your living room will have a television set and a video, and your kitchen a washing machine and a microwave oven. Your bedroom drawers will be filled with almost three times as many clothes as you need. You almost certainly own a car and possibly a home computer, holiday abroad at least once a year and eat out at least once a week.
Now, perhaps, more than ever before, people are wondering what life is all about, and what it is for. Seeking material success is beginning to trouble large numbers of people around the world. They feel that the long hours work culture to make more money is eating up their lives, leaving them very little time or energy for family or pastimes. Many are turning to other ways of living and downshifting is one of them. Six percent of workers in Britain took the decision to downshift last year.
One couple who downshifted is Daniel and Liz. They used to work in central London. He was a newspaper reporter and she used to work for an international bank. They would go to work by train every day from their large house in the suburbs, leaving their two children with a nanny. Most evenings Daniel wouldn’t get home until eight or nine o’clock and nearly twice a month he would have to fly to New York for meetings. They both earned a large amount of money but began to feel that life was passing them by.
Nowadays, they run a farm in the mountains of Wales. “I always wanted to have a farm then,” says Daniel, “and we took almost a year to make the decision to downshift. It’s taken some time getting used to, but it’s been worth it. We have to think twice now about spending money on car repairs and we no longer have any holidays. However, I think it’s made us stronger as a family, and the children are much happier.
Liz, however, is not quite sure. “I used to enjoy my job, even though it was hard work and long hours. I’m not really a country girl, but I suppose I’m gradually getting used to looking after the animals. One thing I do like, however, is being able to see more of my children. My advice for other people wanting to do the same is not to think about it too much, or you might not do it at all.”
1.The passage tells us that ________.
A.people seldom work long hours to make money |
B.people hardly buy more things than necessary |
C.people are sure everything they own is in the right place |
D.people realize there is more to life than just making money |
2.When Daniel was a reporter, he ______.
A.lived in central London | B.was well paid |
C.missed his children | D.disliked his job |
3.Daniel and Liz both agree that the move to the farm ______.
A.was easy to organize | B.was extremely expensive |
C.has improved family life | D.has been a total success |
4.The underlined word “downshifting” in the 2nd paragraph refers to ______.
A.repairing your car by yourself |
B.spending money carefully |
C.moving out to the countryside to live a simpler and better life |
D.living in a big house in the suburbs and dining out once a week |

For each working person, the rarest resource is your daily time. You may feel like that you do not have enough hours in the day, only endless things to do. Of course, some of these things are not part of your job, such as other colleagues asking for your help or bosses making new demands.
How can we reasonably refuse them?
1. Just by doing the following three steps, you can usually make yourself and the other person comfortable while refusing them.
◆ Listen patiently to others’ requests
It’s not simply hearing what the other person is saying. You have to stop what you’re doing and carefully listen to what they say. 2. The point is to let the other person see that you are willing to help, and let them understand that you’ve already known their needs. In this way, even if you eventually refuse them, they’ll understand that you are not available, instead of not willing to help.
◆ 3.
When we listen, we all hope that other people will come to a conclusion quickly. But when we speak, we instinctively(本能地)start from the beginning of the story. In fact, this way of speaking is not good for communication. So if you want to refuse somebody, just tell them No, and then explain the reasons why.
◆ Provide an alternative solution
Maybe you really don’t have the time to listen to the other person’s request. In situations like this, don’t just tell the other person that you don’t have the time. 4. For example, you may say, “Sorry, I really don’t have the time right now. Is it OK if we talk tomorrow morning?” In this way, although you refuse him, he still can feel your support.
In conclusion, refusal is unavoidable, but you can choose the way to refuse. An inappropriate refusal may cause great harm to your working life.5..
A. Begin with conclusion when refusing.
B. Start from the beginning when refusing.
C. Even if your time is limited, it is best for you to do so.
D. Instead, you should give them a time when you would be available.
E. In addition, this willing-to-help attitude also shows leadership skills.
F. In fact, there has been a mature methodology (科学方法) for this matter since long ago.
G. An artistic refusal, on the other hand, may lead you to some unexpected benefits.

高二英语单项填空中等难度题查看答案及解析
There’s nothing like having a child to remind you that you are no longer the center of your own universe. But every now and then, I need to relax with some“me”time.
I booked an overnight trip to Dover, Delaware. We arrived in Delaware right after sunset. Mom and I settled into our hotel room and went downstairs to the restaurant, and then I ordered myself a drink. I had just taken two sips when my husband called me.
“I’m so sorry to bother you,”Craig said.“The baby is burning up and we are on the way to the hospital.”I didn’t know how to reply. I was so desperate to get away to take a break. My baby was sick but I couldn’t do a thing for him. The situation made me feel so helpless.“I don’t know what to do,”I told him.“I’m five hours from home!”“I know,”my husband said.“You can’t help that. I’ll call you when I know what’s wrong.”My husband and my father took the baby to the emergency room. Meanwhile, I searched the restaurant for my mom. Once I found her, we went to our hotel room and waited for a phone call.
Over an hour later, Craig called to tell me that the baby had bronchitis(支气管炎). He seemed to be feeling better. The next morning, when I returned home, the baby was already back to his happy self.
Ever since this incident, I have really struggled with the concept of“me”time. I try to figure out why I need a break from the child who I love very much. However, sometimes I need to feel like a person and not just a mommy machine. In recent months, I have taken some“me”time. My mom helped keep the baby so I could go shopping, take a nap, and clean my house. On a couple of occasions, Craig and I went to dinner with friends. And this summer, I even managed to read an entire novel while the baby rested.
Now I’ve decided not to leave the baby overnight again or travel a long distance without him. I remember when I first announced my pregnancy(怀孕), a friend told me there was no ‘me’ in mommy. Maybe there’s not. But for me, I’m taking“me”time when I can.
