If you are sending a text, watching the TV or listening to the radio, you may want to stop and give this your full attention. Multi-tasking shrinks (萎缩) the brain, research suggests.

A study found that men and women who frequently used several types of technology at the same time had less grey matter in a key part of the brain. University of Sussex researchers said, “Simultaneously using mobile phones, laptops and other media devices could be changing the structure of our brains.”

The finding follows research which has linked multi-tasking with a shortened attention span, depression, anxiety and lower grades at school. The researchers began by asking 75 healthy men and women how often they divided their attention between different types of technology. 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 showed they had less grey matter in a region called the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC). The findings held even when differences in personality were taken into account.

The study, published in the journal PLOS ONE, is the first to make a link between 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-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 exposure to new environments and experience. Other studies have shown that training — such as 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.

1.According to Kep Kee Loh, ________.

A. the link between multi-tasking and brain shrinkage needs further research

B. people with less grey matter in the ACC are more attracted to multi-tasking

C. multi-tasking has harmful impacts on our cognition and social-emotional well-being

D. multi-tasking leads to a shortened attention span, depression, anxiety and lower grades

2.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?

A. What multi-tasking is probably linked with.

B. How researchers draw inferences about multi-tasking.

C. How different health conditions affect brain structure.

D. Significance and limits of the research from University of Sussex .

3.The purpose of the passage is to ________.

A. compare the latest research with previous ones

B. prove the dangers of multi-tasking

C. inform readers of research on multi-tasking

New York----Michelle Obama made a daring decision to return to the same designer who created her Inaugural (就职）Ball dress four years ago -- and the risk paid off.

The First Lady looked extremely attractive in a thin, sweeping, and ruby-colored dress by designer Jason Wu. She teamed the dramatic dress with heels by Jimmy Choo and a diamond ring by Kimberly McDonald.

She surprised the fashion establishment by returning to a Wu design which had been the custom made for her.

Four years ago at her first Inauguration Ball, Michelle shimmered（熠熠生辉）in an off-white, one-shouldered floor-length dress by the designer.

Wu, who was 26 at the time and had only been working in fashion for three years, saw his career take off after the First Lady's surprise decision to wear one of his dresses.

He said at the time that he was unaware she had chosen the dress and had been watching at home on his couch and eating pizza when she appeared.

After her 2013 decision, Wu told Women's Wear Daily: “Mrs Obama likes to keep her secrets. She fooled me again.”

Wu released a women's clothing and accessories（装饰品）collection at Target last year and continues to be popular with the First Lady for official engagements.

The sleeveless, cross-halter neck dress with low-cut back flattered（突出）49-year-old Michelle's arms and neat waist.

It had been created especially for her by Wu and was a departure from the dark and plain colour tone she stuck to at earlier inauguration events.

Mrs Obama's new hairstyle -- she had bangs（美发沙龙）cut on her birthday last week had been loosely tousled（蓬松的）for the special night.

Vice-President Joe Biden's wife Jill also looked attractive in a blue silk dress by Vera Wang at the Inauguration Ball.

1.What does the passage mainly talk about？

A. Designer Wu’s great works

B. Mrs. Obama’s decision to return to her former fashion designer

C. The First Lady’s secrets.

D. Wu, a great designer.

2.Michelle Obama’s brave decision proved to be a_________.

A. risk B. danger C. Surprise D. success

3.According to the passage, which of the following is correct?

A. Mrs Obama’s inaugural dresses were made by the same designer.

B. Joe Biden’s wife Jill also had her dress created by Wu.

C. The colour tone at Michelle’s earlier inaugural events was not satisfactory.

D. Mrs Obama had straight forehead hair as her new hairstyle for the special night.

4.Which of the following best describes Jason Wu?

A. Daring and gifted. B. Unusual and cautious.

C. Careful and brave. D. Talented and lucky.

Most of us would like to have glowing skin, especially as we get older. The good news is that you don’t have to wait until summer to catch some sun rays. Scientists have found eating plenty of fruit and vegetables is by far the best way to achieve a healthy, golden glow.

Dr. Ian Stephen said, “Most people think that the best way to improve their skin color is to get a suntan（棕褐色）. But our research shows that eating lots of fruit and vegetables is actually more effective.”

The team first assessed the skin color of people in relation to their diet. Those who ate more fruit and vegetables a day were found to have a more golden, yellow skin color. Those with a healthy glow had a higher presence of carotenoids（类胡萝卜素）, which play a role in the immune system. Carotenoids are commonly found in fruit and vegetables such an yellow and red peppers, spinach, apricots and melons.

The team then studied the relation between skin tone and attractiveness. They used specialist software to operate the skin color on the images of 51 faces to simulate（模拟）more or less carotenoids and suntans. Participants were then asked to adjust the skin color to make the faces look as healthy as possible. Given the choice between skin color enhanced by suntans and skin color enhanced by carotenoids, people preferred the carotenoids skin color.

The study shows that not only do people use skin color to judge how healthy other individuals are, but they are accurate when they make those judgments. While this study focus on Caucasian（白种人的）faces, it suggests this phenomenon may exist across cultures, since similar preferences for skin yellowness are found in an African population.

1.Which statement is TRUE according to the text?

A. Carotenoids are only found in the fruit.

B. Carotenoids are important in the immune system

C. Carotenoids can be improved by catching sun rays.

D. Carotenoids are the only factor that affects the skin color.

2.According to the text, people preferred _______.

A. the yellow skin color

B. the skin color as white as possible

C. the skin color enhanced by suntans

D. the skin color enhanced by carotenoids

3.What can we learn from the text?

A. Young girls should not eat many melons.

B. There’s no need to worry about our skin color.

C. We cannot judge a person from his appearance.

D. Skin color is a clue to judge whether a person is healthy or not.

4.What’s the author’s intention of writing this passage?

A. To show us how to get glowing skin.

B. To persuade us to get suntans every day.

C. To explain different diets in different cultures.

D. To share his experience of improving the skin.

On a Friday night, a poor young artist was playing with his violin at a street corner with a large piece of paper on the ground. Before long, he was surrounding with people, who were all attracted by the word on that paper. It said, “Last night, a gentleman put an important thing into my hat with mistake. Please come to claim them soon.” Seeing this, people wondered why it could be. Some time later, a man came and take back his lottery which won a prize of $ 500,000. When asked why he didn’t keep it for himself, artist said, “While I don’t have much money, I live happy. However, if I lose honest, I won’t be happy forever.”
