While I was  59    my flowers, a young man went inside. “How many roses can I get  60   only five dollars, Madam?” he asked. The assistant was trying to tell him roses were as  61   as forty dollars a dozen---- Maybe he would be happy with carnations ( 康乃馨). “ No, I  62   have red roses,” he said, “my mum was   63   ill last year and I didn’t spend much time with her. Now I want to get something special, roses, as rose is her  64  .”

After hearing it, I said I would pay   65  of the money for the young man.  66  by both of us, the assistant said, “well, lovely young men, thirty dollars a dozen, only for you.” Taking the roses, the young man almost jumped into the  67  and ran out of the shop. It was  68  worth twenty-five dollars I paid to see the exciting  69  . Then I paid for my dozen of roses and told the assistant to  70  them to my mother.

As I walked out, I felt  71  . Suddenly I saw the young man crossing the street and going into a park. But soon I  72    it was not a park  73   a cemetery. Crying, the young man carefully  74   the roses, “Mum, why didn’t I tell you how much I loved you?

A new study says one part of the human brain may become smaller as the result of a condition known as jet lag. Jet lag results from flying long distances in an airplane. People with jet lag may feel extremely tired for several days. They may also have problems thinking clearly and remembering.
Recently a researcher at the University of Bristol in Britain reported the findings of his jet lag study, which involved twenty young women who worked for international airlines. They had served passengers on airplanes for five years. These flight attendants flew across many countries and at least seven time zones. In the study, the flight attendants had different amounts of time to recover from jet lag. Half the women spent five days or fewer in their home areas between long flights. The other half spent more than fourteen days in their home areas.
The researcher took some saliva from the women”s mouths to measure levels of a hormone(荷尔蒙) that increases during stress(紧张). He tested them to see if they could remember where black spots appeared on a computer screen. And he took pictures of their brains to measure the size of the brain”s temporal lobes(脑叶).
It was found that the women who had less time between flights had smaller right temporal lobes. This area of the brain deals with recognizing and remembering what is seen. The same group performed worse and had slower reaction times on the visual memory test. And their saliva samples showed higher levels of stress hormones.
The researcher believes the brain needs at least ten days to recover after a long trip. He says airline workers told him their ability to remember got worse after working on planes for about four years. Other studies have shown that increased feelings of stress can cause a loss of cells in the part of the brain that controls memory.
Scientists say more tests are needed to study the effects of jet lag on the brain. They want to find out if too much jet lag could permanently (永久性的) affect memory.
