Andy Pope,a police community support officer for West Midlands Police,in the UK,has come to be known as a memory policeman for his surprising memory,which has helped him successfully recognize over 850 suspects（嫌疑犯）in the last four years.

Every day,Pope arrives at work half an hour early,opens his computer,and scans the pictures of suspects in his computer.He has been doing it even since he joined the West Midlands Police in 2013,and as his brain stores more faces,hrs record of recognizing bad guys keeps getting better.His skill has made him special,and when policemen use up all other possible ways trying to put a name to a suspect's face,they tum to him.

"If you look at a picture enough times,there is usually something that sticks in the mind.Maybe I can't remember what it is at the time,but when I see the person in the flesh,it causes that recognition,"Pope says.He once recognized a robber whose photo he had looked at a year before,and another from a CCTV video,by a tiny mole（痣）on his face.

Andy Pope first attracted the attention of the media in 2017 after recognizing about 250 suspects.But according to a recent ITV report,Pope's record has improved in the last four years.

"I thought I was just normal until inspector Morris told me I was recognizing more people than anyone else," Pope told The Telegraph in 2017."I don't know whether I have a photographic memory.My wife has to deal with things like birthdays.When it comes to remembering dates,I'm useless."

A report says older adults who test their minds with increasingly difficult projects have better mental ability than those who do less demanding activities.

To keep our brains sharp as we age, we are often told to keep our minds active. As the old saying goes, “Use it or lose it.” But, there is very little scientific evidence to support than.

Denise Park is head of the university’s Center for ? Vital Longevity. She designed a study in which she and her tern placed 221 healthy aging and older adults into one of three groups.

“We asked people to learn new things, like quilting or photography. We asked other people to just do fun things like being in a social group function but were not likely to have a very large effect.”

The subjects took part in their assigned activities for 15 hours a week over three months. At the end of that time, the researchers found that the adults who learned new skills, such as digital photography, showed the greatest improvements on memory tests.

No improvements were seen in the results of those in the social group that did activities together like going on field trips. There were also no improvements among the third group that listened to classical music or did crossword puzzles.

Denise Park believes one reason for improved memory in the active learning group is that its members were being pushed to learn new skills. The other groups took part in what she call receptive activities. Learning new skills may not cure age-related mental decline. But, Ms. Park thinks being mentally active slows down the process.

Denise Park says the latest information shows that the improvements lasted for at least a year. She and her team plan to do longer follow-up studies with all three groups. She also is interested in learning whether taking part in demanding mental activities delays the development of conditions like Alzheimer’s disease.

1.What may the social group be asked to do?

A. Learn to take photos.

B. Listen to music at home.

C. Go hiking together.

D. Do the dishes.

2.What did Denise Park and her team find?

A. Doing more exercise can help slow down our age-related mental decline.

B. Having a relaxing life is beneficial to keeping our minds sharp.

C. Keeping our minds active is associated with our health.

D. Learning new skills may help to keep our minds active.

3.If you want to keep your brain sharp you could_______.

A. go swimming with your friends.

B. play chess with your family.

C. learn how to repair the computer.

D. do crossword puzzles online

4.The text is likely to be selected from a book of______.

A. medicine B. education

C. aging D. science

In a time when ivory poaching（偷猎）has gotten so bad that it threatens to wipe out several animal species,a young Dutch designer is creating "egalitarian（平等主义）jewelry" made of our very own ivory—teeth.

Lucie Majerus got the idea for her "human ivory" collection after having her wisdom teeth removed.She kept them and soon realized they would make great material for a jewelry collection."Why wouldn't we value our own material instead of the precious material from other species?And what if we mine our own ivory and turn it into pearls?"she asks.

Her own teeth became a ring,but in order to create a whole collection,she needed more material,and since having more of her teeth removed wasn't a very pleasant choice,she asked her dentist to save his patient's unwanted teeth.Most people choose not to keep their pulled teeth,so they are usually donated to dentistry schools.Majerus also received the lost teeth of two of-her teachers at Design Academy Eindhoven,so she had a nice supply of human ivory to experiment with.

To turn human teeth into attractive pieces of jewelry,Lucie Majerus first bleaches（漂白）them,and then uses a stone polishing machine to shape the teeth into various shapes.

Majerus displayed her human ivory jewelry collection at this year's Dutch Design Week,and claims that people's reaction was mostly positive."Surprisingly,most people aren't frightened at the sight of the jewelry,but really like the idea,"Majerus told Fast Co Design."Some regret that they didn't keep their tooth at the dentist and some,who will have teeth taken out soon,are now looking forward to it."

1.When did Majerus get the idea of collecting human ivory?

A. After she bought a ring.

B. Before her wisdom teeth appeared.

C. Before she was lacking in pearls.

D. After her wisdom teeth were pulled out.

2.Seeing Majerus's human ivory jewelry collection,most people felt .

A. frightened B. interested

C. sad D. curious

3.It can be inferred from the text that .

A. Majerus is the first woman to create jewelry using human teeth

B. other species' teeth are more precious than human teeth

C. most people don't like keeping their pulled teeth at home

D. Majerus's teachers objected to her experiments with teeth

4.What may be the best title for the text?

A. Elephants and Ivory

B. Human Ivory Jewelry

C. A Designer Removed Her Teeth

D. The Weakenesses of Human Teeth

Most people realize that fast food isn't the healthiest or best?tasting cuisine(菜肴). It is, however, expected to be fast.

Many chains like McDonald's have struggled with slower food delivery in recent years, because there are more items on the menu. But the world's largest restaurant chain, which serves 68 million customers daily in 119 countries, is trying to change that.

For several months, McDonald's has been testing what's called the “just?for?you experience”. In 200 U S restaurants (and more than 2，000 across the globe), customers are able to order directly from a self?serve kiosk(售货亭), after which an employee brings the meal directly to the table.

McDonald's chief executive Steve Easterbrook, speaking at a McDonald's in New York's Tribeca neighbourhood on Thursday, said the company has long expected customers to adapt to its business model of ordering at the counter and then waiting to collect their own food. Now, he said, “We're adapting our business around customers.”

It showed that “test runs at more than 500 restaurants…showed an increase in foot traffic and contributed to a mid?single?digit percentage increase in restaurant sales, lifting the 5 to 6 average check by 1, on average.” Customer satisfaction scores also increased, “because families, in particular, appreciate having their food brought to them.”The company also announced the beginning of a new mobile order?and?pay app, which would allow customers to order and pay for food from their smart phones.

Mike, a common customer, said, “As a father of two small children, I'm every fast?food chain's target customer. My wife and I try to avoid McDonald's when possible, but like many parents we end up going. I've used the self?serve kiosks and like them a lot: they're easy to use, reduce the pressure of making a choice with impatient customers behind you, and make a big difference in delivery time. I just hope they don't start expecting me to tip.”

1.Why do many chains have a slower food delivery in the past several years?

A. Because they have struggled many expectations.

B. Because they have more dishes to serve people.

C. Because they have the world's largest restaurant chains.

D. Because sometimes they have too many customers.

2.How do customers get their food after ordering food self?serve kiosks?

A. By testing McDonald's machine.

B. By taking food by themselves.

C. By letting waiters bring food for them.

D. By letting employees serve for them.

3.What's the result of trying “just?for?you experience”？

A. It is a great success.

B. It caused traffic jam.

C. It's well received only by app users.

D. It still needs to be observed.

4.What can we infer from what Mike said?

A. His family don't like McDonald's.

B. He's willing to give tips for good service.

C. Self?serve kiosks are a good choice.

D. It's hard for him to spend the delivery time.
