  Tokyo is one of those places that you can love and hate at the same time.

  In Tokyo there are always too many people in the places where I want to be.Of course there are too many cars.The Japanese drive very fast, but in Tokyo they often spend a long time in traffic jams.Tokyo is not different from London, Paris and New York in that.It is different when one wants to walk.

  At certain times of the day there are a lot of people on foot in London Oxford Street.But the streets near the Ginze in Tokyo always have a lot of people on foot, and sometimes it is really difficult to walk.People are very polite; there are just too many of them.

  The worst time to be in the street is at 11∶30 at night.That is when the night-clubs are closing and everybody wants to go home.There are 35 000 night-clubs in Tokyo, and you do not often see one that is empty.

  During the day, most people travel to and from work by train.Tokyo people buy six million train tickets every day.At most stations, trains arrive every two or three minutes, but at certain hours there do not seem to be enough trains.Although they are usually crowded, Japanese trains are very good.They always leave and arrive on time.On a London train you would see everybody reading a newspaper.In Tokyo trains everybody in a seat seems to be asleep, whether his journey is long or short.

  In Tokyo, I stood outside the station for five minutes.Three fire-engines race past on the way to one of the many fires that Tokyo has every day.Tokyo has so many surprises that none of them can really surprise me now.

  If you want to stay young, sit down and have a good think. This is the research finding of a team of Japanese doctors, who say that most of our brains are not getting enough exercise--and as a result, we are growing old unnecessarily soon.

  Professor Taiju Matsuzawa wanted to find out why quite healthy farmers in northern Japan appeared to be losing their ability to think and reason(推理)at a rather early age, and how the speed of getting old could be slowed down.

  With a team of researchers at Tokyo National University, he set about measuring brain volumes(容量)of a thousand people of different ages with different jobs.

  Computer technology helped the researchers to get most exact measurements of the volume of the front and side parts of the brain, which have something to do with intellect(智力)and feelings, and decide the human character, As we all know, the back part of the brain, which control tasks like eating and breathing does not contract(萎缩)with age.

  Contraction of front and side parts--as cells(细胞)die off--was seen in some people in their thirties, but it was still not found in some sixty and seventy-year-olds.

  Matsuzawa concluded from his tests that there is a simple Way to prevent the contraction--using the head.

  The findings show that contraction of the brain begins sooner in people in the country than in the towns. Those with least possibility, says Matsuzawa, are lawyers, followed by university professors and doctors, White collar workers doing the same Work day after day in government offices are, however, as possible to have contracting brains as the farm worker, bus drivers and shop assistants.

(1)The team of doctors wanted to find out ________.

[  ]

A. at what point people grow mentally old

B. how to make people live longer

C. the size of certain people's brains

D. which people are the most clever

(2)Their research findings are based on ________.

[  ]

A. an examination of farmers in northern Japan

B. tests given on a thousand old people

C. examining the brain volumes of different people

D. using computer technology

(3)The doctors' tests show that ________.

[  ]

A. our brains contract as we grow older

B. one part of the brain does not contract

C. sixty-year-olds have better brains than thirty-year-olds

D. some people's brain have contracted earlier than other people's

(4)According to the article, ________ are growing old earlier than people who live in the cities.

[  ]

A. farmers
B. office clerks
C. shop assistants
D. bus drivers

(5)The most possible conclusion of the passage is that ________.

[  ]

A. most of us should take more exercise

B. it's better to live in the town

C. the brain contracts if it is not used

D. the more one uses his brain, the sooner he becomes old
