at Duke University finds that the simple actof reading-depending on the choice of material-can cause weight loss in teenage girls.The studys experimental group included 31 fat girls aged 9 to 13,who took part in the HealthyLifestyles Program at Duke Childrens Hospital.The girls read a novel called Lake Rescue,whoseprotagonist(主 人 公)is an overweight teenager who struggles with low self-esteem,feelings ofloneliness and teasing because of her size.A group of 33 girls read a different book calledCharlotte in Paris,which did not have an overweight character,and another group of 17 girls readneither book.At the end of the six-month experiment,all the girls who read books had lost weight,but the girlswho read Lake Rescue lost more.They lowered their body mass index(BMI)by 0.71,comparedwith 0.33 in the Charlotte group,an average 0.05 increase among the nonreaders.The idea behind the study,says Dr Sarah Armstrong,director of Healthy Lifestyles,was to finda way to encourage the girls without adopting the restrictive and often authoritative voice of somany other nutrition and diet programs.Lake Rescue was the perfect instrument,says Armstrong;it presents a likable character to whom the girls could relate and whom they could learn from.Asthe book progresses,its protagonist learns to make healthier lifestyle choices and finds an advisorto help keep her on track.Armstrong says,“She learns that she can become healthier,and the 4Ican do itffeeling resonates(产 生 共 鸣)with the teenage girls.26.W hafs the main idea of the passage?A.There are different ways to

and may help prevent dementia(痴 呆)in old age bybathing the brain in protective hormones(荷 尔 蒙),U.S.researchers reported on Thursday.Tests on rats show that those who raise two or more litters of pups do considerably better in testsof memory and skills than rats who have no baby,and their brains show changes that suggest theymay be protected against diseases such as Alzheimers(早 老 性 痴 呆 症).University of Richmondpsychology professor Craig Kinsley believes his findings will translate into humans.“Our research shows that the honnones of pregnancy(怀 孕)are protecting the brain,includingestrogen(雌 激 素),which we know has many neuro-protective(保 护 神 经 的)effects,“Kinsleysaid.“Its rats data but humans are mammals just like these animals are mammals,“he added in atelephone interview.They go through pregnancy and hormonal changes/Xinsley said he hopedpublic health officials and researchers will look to see if having had children protects a womanfrom Alzheimers and oth er forms of age-related brain decline.“When people think about pregnancy,they think about what happens to babies and the motherfrom the neck down,“said Kinsley,who presented his findings to the annual meeting of theSociety of Neuroscience in Orlando,Florida.“They do not realize that honnones are washing on the brain.If you look at female animals thathave never gone through pregnancy,they act differently toward young.But if she goes throughpregnancy,she will sacrifice her life for her infant-that is a great change in her behavior thatshows in genetic alterations to the brain.,31.How do scientists know“Motherhood may make women smarter”?A.Some researchers have told them.B.Many women say so.C.They know it by experimenting on rats.D.They know it through their own experience.32.What

people,Boston University scientists said they havediscovered a genetic signature(特 征)of longevity.They expect soon to offer a test that could letpeople learn whether they can live to a very old age.The researchers said they had no plans to patent the technique or profit from it.Instead,they expectto make a free test available on the Internet later this month to promote longevity research.The test might show something that people wouldnt like to know,the BU scientistswarned.Genetic testing often reveals attractive but incomplete information,and it is sometimesdifficult to know how to respond.People with genes for extreme longevity could face a series ofdifficult decisions about their careers,retirement savings,insurance coverage,medical treatmentsand maniages in old age.Scientists have long sought to crack the genetic code of healthy aging.On average,people indeveloped countries can expect to live between 80 and 85 years,largely as a result ofimprovements in diet and public

daily 1 ives.With the development of new three-dimensional digital technologies,it hasbeen changing peoples ways of communicating and working.Digital cameras that record in 3-D have been brought to market.Manufacturers have also launched 3-D digital photo frames,which can broadcast 3-Dphotos.Processing software allows flat photos in the frame to achieve 3-D visual effects that canbe seen by users without wearing special glasses.After nine years of research,China took the lead to establish a 3-D Internet marketingplatfbrm.Internet users can go shopping in a 3-D environment just like in the real world byselecting goods,checking reviews and trying out recommended goods.Web 3-D technology will be used in more fields such as automobiles and travel.In traveling,tourists can enjoy scenic spots,monuments and sites.They also can take to guides and othertourists,who are represented as 3-D virtual figures.In Suzhou,the first online 3-D police station in the world has been established.lt
