During the 19th century, scientists found that when certain parts of the brain of a person were hurt, he would lose the power of doing certain things. And so people thought that each part of the brain does a different job. But modem research discovered that this is not so, for it is not easy to show exactly what each part of the brain does.In the past fifty years there has been a great increase in the amount of research done on the brain. Scientists have found out the way the brain works is not so simple as people in general may think. Chemists fell us that about 100000 chemical changes take place in the brain every second. Some recent researches also suggest that we can remember everything that happens to us. We, may not be able to think of the things we have heard and seen, but it is kept there in the storehouse (宝库)of the human brain. Earlier scientists thought that is not true. As long as the brain is given plenty of exercise, it keeps its power. It has been proved that an old person who has always been active in the mind has a quicker mind than a young person who has only done physical work without using much of his brain.(1).

People landing at London''s Heathrow airport have something new to look at as they fly over Britain，' s capital city. It is attractive, simple and a little strange. The Millennium Dome (千禧穹)is a huge semi-circle of plastic and steel and it contains the largest public space in the world. It has been built to house an exhibition of all that is best in British life, learning and leisure.The Millennium Dome was designed by Sir Richard Rogers, one of Britain''s most famous architects (建筑师).His work points the way to new developments in building. Think of it as a giant symbol of the buildings in which we will all be living and working in the nearfuture.Buildings are also a part of history. They express the culture of the times. Sir Richard Rogers is aware of this responsibility. While different designers have individual styles, their work also has a common style. That is: to express the values of the information age. What is an information age" building? The Dome is a good example. After the Millennium exhibition ends, it will be used for another purpose. Just as people no longer have "jobs for life”, modem buildings are designed for a number of different uses.Another Richard RogerMs building, the PompidouCenter in France, uses the idea that information is communication. Instead of being hidden in
