This could mean sending a text message while listening to music and checking email, or speaking on the phone while watching TV and surfing the web. The volunteers were then given brain scans which show

16、en multi-tasking and the structure of the brain. Researcher Kep Kee Loh said, “Media multi-tasking is becoming more common in our lives today and there is increasing concern about its impacts on our cognition and social-emotional well- being.”He added that more research is needed to prove that multi

17、-tasking shrinks the brain. This is because it is also possible that people with less grey matter in the ACC are more drawn to using lots of small devices simultaneously. Scientists have previously demonstrated brain structure can be changed on prolonged such as exposure to new environments and expe

18、rience. Other studies have shown that training learning to juggle or taxi drivers learning the map of London can increase grey-matter densities 密度 in certain parts. Experts have also warned of the harmful impact technology can have on our memory and attention span. 21. According to Kep Kee Loh, _. A

23、no better in business circles, where three-quarters of French executives feel unprepared to hold an interview in English and only 16 percent say they feel comfortable with the language, a separate survey showed. The survey results arent surprising. The French seem to have always had this cold and gl

24、oomy （懊丧 的）attitude toward the English language.

New immigrants are part of the reason. I can have an easy chat with the owner of the l

25、aundry in my neighborhood. Buying the medicine I need at the local pharmacy is effortless. Ordering a meal in English at the restaurant two blocks away from my apartment does not make me feel awkward. It is all because the people who run these businesses are immigrants. Greater tolerance and accepta

26、nce of non-French speakers is a reflection of the fact that France, willingly or not, has begun to embrace拥抱 globalization more comfortably. For instance, you will never get the same look you would have had 15 years ago if you ask for directions in English on the streets of Paris. I have also met ma

27、ny native French who are happy to communicate in English. They are usually the kind of people who are open-minded and are sensitive to the changes beyond their own territories.

28、is also being hotly debated since Beijing education authorities decided to reduce the importance of English proficiency in college entrance exams and increase that of the Chinese language and literature. The Chinese and the French share similarities in attitudes toward foreign languages. We are both

29、 so proud of our own languages and cultures that we can feel uncomfortable when we are forced to communicate in another language. But like it or not, English is still the most widely used language in the world, at least for the foreseeable（可预知的） future. After all, it is not about abandoning ones own

30、 language but about being able to fit more easily into this globalized world. 24. What is the passage mainly about. A. French people have great difficulty speaking English. B. English is becoming increasingly acceptable in France. C. Great changes take place in France because of the immigrants. D. E

34、face the changes in their country. C When I was superintendent of schools in Palo Alto, California, Polly Tyner, the president of our board of trustees（董事会） , wrote a letter that was printed in the Palo Alto Times. Pollys son, Jim, had great difficulty in school. He was classified as educationally h

35、andicapped and required a great deal of patience on the part of his parents and teachers. But Jim was a happy kid with a great smile that lit up the room. His parents acknowledged his academic difficulties, but always tried to help him see his strengths so that he could walk with pride. Shortly afte

36、r Jim finished high school, he was killed in a motorcycle accident. After his death, his mother submitted this letter to the newspaper. Today we buried our 20-year-old son. He was killed instantly in a motorcycle accident on Friday night. How I wish I had known when I talked to him last that it woul

37、d be the last time. If I had only known I would have said, Jim, I love you and Im so very proud of you. I would have taken the time to count the many blessings he brought to the lives of the many who loved him. I would have taken time to appreciate his beautiful smile, the sound of his laughter, his

38、 genuine love of people. When you put all the good attributes on the scale 天平 and you try to balance all the irritating traits such as the radio which was always too loud, the haircut that wasnt to our liking, the dirty socks under the bed, etc., the irritations dont amount to much. I wont get anoth

39、er chance to tell my son all I would have wanted him to hear, but, other parents, you do have a chance. Tell your young people what you would want them to hear if you 6 名师归纳总结 - - - - - - -第 6 页,共 21 页精选学习资料 - - - - - - - - - knew it would be your last conversation. The last time I talked to Jim was

40、 the day he died. He called me to say, Hi, Mom. I just called to say I love you. Got to go to work. Bye. He gave me something to treasure forever. If there is any purpose at all to Jims death, maybe it is to make others appreciate more of life and to have people, especially families, take the time t

41、o let each other know just how much we care. You may never have another chance. Do it today. Which of the following is NOT true about Jim. 28.A. He was a boy handicapped and needed lots of patience. B. He was an optimistic child and was sincere and kind to others. C. He found a job after his graduat

44、 Do It Today D It is all very well to blame traffic jams, the cost of petrol and the quick pace of modern life, but manners on the roads are becoming horrible. Everybody knows that the nicest men become monsters behind the wheel. It is very well, again, to have a tiger in the tank, but to have one i

45、n the driverseat is another matter altogether. You might tolerate the odd road-hog, the rude and inconsiderate driver, but nowadays the well-mannered motorist is the exception to the rule. Perhaps the situation calls for a “Be Kind to Other Drivers” campaign, otherwise it may get completely out of c

46、ontrol. Road politeness is not only good manners, but good sense too. It takes the most cool-headed and good-tempered drivers to resist the temptation to revenge when subjected to uncivilized behavior. On the other hand, a little politeness goes a long way towards relieving the tensions of 7 名师归纳总结 - - - - - - -第 7 页,共 21 页精选学习资料 - - - - - - - - - motoring. A friendly nod or a wave of acknowledgement in response to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of goodwill and tolerance so necessary in modern traffic conditions. But such acknowledgements
