12、outdoor sports.Something that we found curious is seeing so many people running with their babies in prams(婴儿车).On Foot or by BicycleTo get to know some of the wildest parts of Central Park we suggest walking.However,to get a general feel for the whole park,the best thing to do is hire a bicycle and

17、ion poor people,is almost a third of household(家庭的)waste.And food waste isnt just a big problem in Scotland.Money,time,and resources are often wasted by throwing away good food.It also causes very harmful greenhouse gas,which is perilous to the planet.In the production stage,some foods do not enter

18、the food chain for many reasons.Supermarkets usually care about the quality of food from farms.They often refuse strange-looking and unusually-sized produce.However,they seem to forget that it is almost impossible to grow the perfect produce.Food waste at the consumption(消费)stage includes food going

19、 out of date and leftovers(剩 饭)because of too much food.In households,even mostly fresh fruit and vegetables are thrown away.In order to reduce food waste,here is what we can do:Understand the terms“use by”and“best before”dates.“Use by”dates are there for your safety.It is dangerous to eat food afte

20、r the use-by date and doing so risks your health.“Best before”dates tell you how long the food will be at its best quality.Once the food passes the date,it isnt necessarily bad,but you should still check,just to be sure.Every time you go shopping and bring back new food,put them at the back of your

21、fridge and bring the food that will expire(到期)soon closer to the front.That way,you know what needs to be eaten first.If you have any food that will expire soon,give it to charity if you arent going to eat it.They will really appreciate the food you have given.24.What can we infer from Paragraph 1?A

28、void being caught.Animals that have big brains usually have a few things in common.They usually live long lives;for example,sperm whales can live for 70 years or longer.Additionally,theyre capable of complex behaviors and they tend to be more social.Whales may work together to hunt or communicate in

29、 a language all their own.Whats more,humans,whales and dolphins all have spindle neurons in their brains.These nerve cells make us capable of deeper thought,such as reasoning skills,memory,communication and adaptive thinking.And like humans,whales have emotional intelligence meaning theyre capable o

30、f empathy,grief and sadness.Still,in proportion to(与成比例)our body size,the human brain is bigger than that of the sperm whale.Yet theres still so much we dont know about how smart sperm whales really are.And just like the whalers of a century ago,we have likely been underestimating marine mammals,whe

34、的)when we sleep,sleep must play a critical role,or evolution wouldnt have selected for it.Early humans had to hunt,gather food and protect themselves.Those activities consumed much time,so unless sleep served very important purposes,those who slept less would have an advantage.Yet sleeping for long

35、hours of the night was kept for years,but scientists had only general ideas about what happened during sleep.Recently,Dr.Chiara Chiarelli,a neuroscientist,shared what sleep neuroscience research has discovered.Neural(神经的)networks in the brain are connected through synapses(神经突触)which 5学科网（北京）股份有限公司a

36、llow signals to flow throughout the brain and onto cells.During waking hours,new learning can strengthen the connections.You can think of knowledge acquired over a long time as a group of well-connected neural paths.When you learn something new,new paths are connected to the old.During the waking ho

37、urs,your brain processes massive amounts of new insignificant information,say remembering where you parked your car.But that memory has to be preserved at least until you reach the car.It establishes a new connection to your memory of what your car looks like,a well-established“old”memory.The brain

38、creates so many connections daily that particular circuits can be heavily burdened.Dr.Cirelli explained that during sleep,a great many synaptic connections are weakened so that connections are more available for new learning the next day.Continuing with the parked car example,the exact location of t

39、he parked car is not needed again,so the connections are weakened.In fact,if it were not,you might memorize hundreds of places where you have parked,leading to considerable confusion!You dont have to be a scientist to understand that not sleeping well affects next day functioning this is common cult

40、ural wisdom.Dr.Cirellis research is an example of science showing the“why”and“how”mechanisms that underlie that wisdom.32.What does the example of early humans show?A.Sleep wasnt as important as it is today.B.Our ancestors had a hard time surviving.C.Sleep is significant in the history of humans.D.W
