In recent years, research on the human brain has been attracting more and more scientists. 1. If we compare a human brain to a hard disc(硬盘), what the scientists are doing is to make better use of the hard disc.

Experiments have started on animals. In 1999, a transplant(移植) experiment was done at the Defense and Military Physiology Research Institute in the U.S. and turned a bear into a dolphin(海豚). 2. They were made of the memory area in the dolphin’s brain containing information about swimming. They obtained a series of useful information, which was saved into a button-sized chip(芯片). Later the information was transplanted into the action memory area in the bear’s brain. 3. It proved to be a highly successful experiment and a bear was turned into a dolphin.

Not long ago, another memory transplant was performed at the Motor Nerve Research Institute of the University of California. The experiment had an entire transplant of the memory area. 4. The transplant was performed from a dog named “Genius” to a dog named “Idiot”. “Genius” could understand and follow up to 100 gestures and orders made by its master. It was a real genius in memorizing. However, “Idiot” had no contact with people at all since its birth. It became an animal with nothing in its brain, without any memory.

5. When the two dogs woke up, “Idiot” had grasped all the abilities “Genius” had; it was good at memorizing and sensible. It could follow every gesture and any command given by its master. But “Genius” gave no response to its master, and in fact did not recognize him at all.

A. The experiment was a complete success.

B. Then it was released(释放) by means of electric power.

C. One of the latest research topics is how to change the human brain or combine it with the computer.

D. Different images have different meanings in the memory area.

E. It included actions, moods, logic, words, images, etc.

F. Discoveries show that messages are carried by the central nervous system in the brain.

G. Using the most advanced technology, detailed images were produced.

Due to the increasing number of violence acts produced in schools all over the world, more and more parents prefer to have their children educated at home rather than at school. This way they can assure their safety and well-being, although teachers and school representatives are trying to improve the situation in schools by increasing the number of the persons in charge with the safety of the students.

The main reason for violence acts are the films and cartoons that fill the children’s time. They want to do everything. They watch on TV and never think at the consequences, and they may hurt a classmate or a teacher.

On the other hand, parents are not fully satisfied with the children’s results obtained in classes and they consider private classes would have better results.

When a teacher has to watch 30 students in class he can’t probably see what each of them is doing, how he is writing, or if he understands the explanations. At home the teacher can explain in details everything the child doesn’t understand as many times as he considers proper.

And many times. the child grows fond of the teacher at home, who becomes his best friend, and who helps him whenever he needs someone to talk to.

However, the best solution would be a mixture between the education received at school and that at home, because school makes children communicate and socialize. Keeping a child at home for fear there might happen something bad to him only makes the child’s character weak and prevents him from knowing what real life is. Staying in a crystal ball only does harm to the child.

All in all, schools have been created to help children, not to harm them, so it’s best to keep children in these special places, where they learn, laugh, have fun and make new friends.

A. teach parents the ways to keep theft children safe

Eating too much fatty food,exercising too little and smoking can raise your future risk of heart disease. But there is another factor that can cause your heart problems more immediately:the air you breathe.

Previous studies have linked high exposure(暴露)to environmental pollution to an increased risk of heart problems, but two analyses now show that poor air quality can cause heart attack or stroke(中风) within as little as a few hours after exposure. In one report of the research, scientists found that people exposed to high levels of pollutants(污染物)were up to 5% more likely to suffer a heart attack within days of exposure than those with lower exposure. Another study of stroke patients showed that even air that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency(EPA)considers to be of “moderate”(良好) quality and relatively safe for our health can raise the risk of stroke as much as 34% within 12 to 14 hours of exposure.

The authors of both studies stress that these risks are relatively small for healthy people and certainly modest compared with other risk factors such as smoking and high blood pressure. However, it is important to be aware of these dangers because everyone is exposed to air pollution regardless of lifestyle choices. So stricter regulation by the EPA of pollutants may not only improve environmental air quality but could also become necessary to protect public health.

1.The text mainly discusses the relationship between _________ .

A. heart problems and air quality

B. heart problems and exercising

D. heart problems and fatty food

2.The underlined word “modest” in Paragraph 3 most probably means _________ .

3.We can learn from the text that __________?

A. eating fatty food has immediate effects on your heart.

B. the EPA conducted many studies on air quality.

C. moderate air quality is more harmful than smoking.

D. stricter regulations on pollutants should be made.

4.The author’s purpose of writing the text is most likely to _________ .

A. inform B. persuade C. describe D. entertain
