12.Paying a higher price than usual for a ticket to see a film in 3D is the annoyance of many a cinema-goer's life.But there may be a benefit to doing so,as a study has found that 3D films exercise the brain and improve short-term functioning in a similar way to brain-training tests.
The research found that people who watched a movie in 3D improved cognitive (认知) skills,compared to those who watched it in 2D.
The research was led by neuroscientist(神经学家) Dr Patrick Fagan from Goldsmiths University in London.More than 100people took part in the experiment,where participants watched Disney film Big Hero 6in either standard format or RealD 3D.
They also carried out a brain-training-style test before and after seeing a section from the film.The test covered memory,reaction times and cognitive function and the results were compared later.
According to the research,which was carried out in partnership with science group Thrill Laboratory,participants experienced a 23percent increase in cognitive processing,as well as an 11percent increase in reaction times.
Dr Fagan said that the results showed enough of an improvement in brain function to suggest that 3D could play a part in improving brain power in the future.
"These findings are more significant than you might think,"he said."It is a fact that people are living longer and there is a noticeable decline in cognitive brain function in old age which can worsen future quality of life.There has never been a better time to look at ways to improve brain function.The initial results of this study show that 3D films may potentially play a role in slowing this decline."
A second part of the experiment involved those watching the film being fitted with headsets that scanned brain activity and this too showed heightened (加强的) activity when watching 3D.According to the results,participants were seven percent more engaged with what they were watching,adding to argument that 3D movies are more like watching real-life---something Professor Brendan Walker from Thrill Laboratory agreed with.
"As Professor Brendan Walker's test concluded,3D films are more attractive and heighten the senses---this,in turn,makes the brain run at quicker speeds,"Dr Fagan said.
9.According to the research,people watching a movie in 3DA.
A.have a good exercise for their brain
B.lose their short memory of its plots
C.are willing to pay a high price for tickets
D.react the same way as those watching it in 2D
10.What can be learned from the research?B
A.Watching 2D films limits brain function.
B.3D would be a contributing factor in improving brain power.
C.The test was carried out after the whole film was viewed.
D.The participants took the brain-training-style test once.
11.Paragraph 8is mainly aboutD.
A.the application of 3D.
B.the disadvantages of 2D films.
C.the change in brain function.
D.the significance of the study.
12.The text is most likely to appear inC.
