28、parts of the brain communicate and coordinate （协调） with one another and improve memory function, according to an encouraging new study.The scientists invited 36 people of different ages to the lab and had them sit quietly on a fixed bicycle for 10 minutes or, on a separate visit, pedal the bicycle a

29、t a pace so gentle that it barely raised their heart rates. It also was short, lasting for only 10 minutes. Immediately after each session of the sitting or slow pedaling, the people completed a computerized memory test during which they would see a brief picture of, for instance, a tree, followed b

30、y a variety of other images and then a new image of either the same tree or a similar one. The people would press buttons to show whether they thought each image was new or the same as an earlier shot. The test is difficult, since many of the images closely resemble one another. It requires rapid, s

31、killful scanning recent memories to decide whether a picture is new or known. Next, the scientists had each people repeat this process-riding or sitting on the bike for 10 minutes and then completing memory testing-but the testing now took place inside an M. R. I. machine（磁共振成像仪）that scanned the peo

32、ples brains while they responded to the images.Then the researchers compared results. The effects of the exercise were clear. The people were better at remembering images after they had ridden the bike, especially when the images most closely resembled one another. In other words, the harder their m

33、emories had to do their best, the better they performed after the exercise. The M. R. I. scans showed that memory parts of each peoples brain lit up at the same time with parts of the brain associated with learning, indicating that these physically separate parts of the brain were better connected n

A fair number of people advocate a large-scale shift to o

38、rganic farming from conventional agriculture. But this might not seem well-founded.Since the mid-19th century, conventional industrial agriculture has become incredibly efficient on a simple land to food basis. Conventional farming gets more and more crop per square foot of land, which can mean less

39、 wilderness needs to be transformed to farmland.To make farming more efficient, conventional agriculture uses a significant amount of synthetic fertilizer （合成月巴料）each year, and all that nitrogen （氮）enables much faster plant growth. However, the cost is paid in vast polluted dead zones at the months

40、of many of the worlds rivers, because much of the nitrogen ends up running off the soil and into the oceans.

41、me farmers have turned to organic farming. Environmentalists have also welcomed organic food as better for the planet than the food produced by agricultural corporations. Organic practices - refusing artificial fertilizers and chemical pesticides -are considered far more sustainable. Sales of organi

42、c food rose 7.7% in 2010, up to $26.7 billionand people are making those purchases for their moral senses as much as their tongues.Yet a new meta-analysis in Nature does the math and comes to a hard conclusion: organic farming produces 25% fewer crops on average than conventional agriculture.In the

43、Nature analysis, scientists performed an analysis of 66 studies comparing conventional and organic methods across 34 different crop species, from fruits to grains. They found that organic farming delivered a lower output for every crop type, though the difference varied widely. For crops like fruit

44、trees, organic trailed （落后于）conventional agriculture by just 5%. Yet for major grain crops and vegetables - all of which provide the worlds main calories - conventional agriculture outperformed organics by more than 25%.What that means is that while organic farming may be more sustainable than conve

45、ntional agriculture, there are trade-offs （止匕消彼长）with each. So an ideal global agriculture system may borrow the best from both systems rather than upholding merely organic or conventional practices.1、Whafs the authors purpose of writing the passage?A.

Adopting organic practices to grow potato.C. Using conventional methods to plant cabbage.D. Applying conventiona
