9、ing under StressA new review based on a research shows that acute stress affects the way the brain considers the advantages and disadvantages, causing it to focus on pleasure and ignore the possible negative (负面的) consequences of a decision.The research suggests that stress may change the way people

10、 make choices in predictable ways.“Stress affects how people learn, says Professor Mara Mather. “People learn better about positive than negative outcomes under stress.For example, two recent studies looked at how people learned to connect images(影像) with either rewards or punishments. In one experi

11、ment, some of the participants were first stressed by having to give a speech and do difficult math problems in front of an audience; in the other, some were stressed by having to keep their hands in ice water. In both cases, the stressed participants remembered the rewarded material more accurately

12、 and the punished material less accurately than those who hadnt gone through the stress.This phenomenon is likely not surprising to anyone who has tried to resist eating cookies or smoking a cigarette while under stress at those moments, only the pleasure associated with such activities comes to min

13、d. But the findings further suggest that stress may bring about a double effect. Not only are rewarding experiences remembered better, but negative consequences are also easily recalled.The research also found that stress appears to affect decision-making differently in men and women. While both men

14、 and women tend to focus on rewards and less on consequences under stress, their responses to risk turn out to be different.Men who had been stressed by the cold-water task tended to take more risks in the experiment while women responded in the opposite way. In stressful situations in which risk-ta

15、king can pay off big, men may tend to do better, when caution weighs more, however, women will win.This tendency to slow down and become more cautious when decisions are risky might also help explain why women are less likely to become addicted than men: they may more often avoid making the risky ch

It could also be someone like J. K. Rowling or Martin Luther King. Jr. who has proven to be a strong and

19、intelligent person.However, in todays world, stars are regarded as role models along with the heroes listed above, despite their intentions or actions. Teens attempt to imitate their actions for two major reasons. Firstly, to be fashionable and accepted by popular culture, and secondly because stars

20、 actions are so well documented by the media that it seems to grab our attention and turns it to following stars lives. Much of the reports about stars is shocking and exhibits bad morals or lifestyles that arent right for teenagers. In addition, almost everything stars do is described beyond truth

21、to make a shocking story by taking it to the next level. However, teens must take responsibility for their actions. We cant always blame stars for influencing us. Only you have control over yourself and only you choose to do something. Our bodies and actions are in the hands of no one else. Now, who

22、 ever said stars are role models? Whether they choose to be or not, stars set examples as soon as they step into the spotlight. With reporters following and recording every move they make, it is impossible not to be watched and then be imitated. These people influence teens whether or not they want

23、to. Why should someone who doesnt want to be setting an example set one? So，should we look up to them or to people who are true and good role models? Its our responsibility as teens to know right from wrong, and its time for us to take responsibility for our actions. In doing so，we will lean toward

29、tudents has three jobs. And she still manages to have high scores and go to school full-time. Textbook prices are traditionally high. Adding to that problem, many college teachers change textbooks year after year; they either upgrade to a new edition or switch to an entirely different textbook. This

30、 further hurts students because if an instructor no longer uses a particular textbook，that book has no resale value. Dr. Jason decided to make reading a little easier and a lot cheaper for his students by writing his own book on public speaking. “Many books have an increased price because of CD-ROMs

31、，lots of color photographs and pictures. I talked to my students，and many of them，like me，prefer to keep things simple! So，a few years ago，I wrote my own textbook. Compared to most other public speaking books，mine is half the number of pages，and one-third the price. That is，$30 instead of $90. When

The study was done with a variety of animals using phenomenon based on the maximum speed of flas

37、hes of light an individual can see before the light source is seen as constant. Dogs, for example, have eyes with a refresh rate higher than humans. One example of this phenomenon at work, the authors say, is the housefly and its ability to avoid being hit. The research showed flies “observe motion

38、in a shorter time than our own eyes can achieve, which allows them to avoid being hit. Professor Graeme Ruxton of the University of St Andrews in Scotland, who worked jointly on the research project, said in a statement, “Having eyes that send updates to the brain at much higher frequencies than our

39、 eyes do is of no value if the brain cannot process that information equally quickly. Thus, this work highlights the impressive abilities of even the smallest animal brains. Flies might now be deep thinkers, but they can make good decisions very quickly. In comparison, the tiger beetle (虎甲虫) runs fa

40、ster than its eyes can keep up, basically becoming blind, which requires it to stop periodically to re-evaluate its preys(猎物) position.
