　　Yong Scottish actress Leung, who plays Harry's crush(迷恋的对象)Cho Chang in“Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire,”stopped in Beijing and was headed for Hong Kong to prmote(宣传)the film with Warner Bros manager．

　　Though she speaks no Chinese, Leung, 18, said she was excited to meet“Harry”fans at a cinema near Beijing University．

　　“I think everybody here is proud of me．I'm Chinese and I think my trip here will be good for the film,”said Leung, whose parents left Hong Kong before she was born．

　　“Goblet”was the first of the four“Harry”films to open in China day-and-date with the United States, Nov 18．

　　In its opening weekend in China,“Goblet”earned ＄4.1 million．By November 22 it had added up to ＄5.1 million, beating the ＄4.7 million earned by“Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban”in China last fall．

　　“China is not a market that is used to talent visits, so having Katie Leung there will contribute to keeping the heat on the movie,”said Veronika Kwan-Rubnek, president of Warner Bros International in an e-mail．

　　Chinese reporters gathered around Leung in an expensive Western hotel meeting room, fired questions and took pictures as she sat by posters of“Harry”star Daniel Radcliffe．

　　“Your role is not so big, are you disappointed?”asked one reporter, and another asked,“How do you deal with the negative opinions from Harry fans who have said bad things about you on the Web?”

　　Wearing a dark red sweater over blue jeans, Leung smiled and said she was happy simply to be in so big film．

　　“Because Cho's character is so much about her image, because that's what Harry's attracted to, her beauty, I know I just can't satisfy everybody,”Leung said．

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. Jet lag interferes with a person's normal times for sleeping and waking. People with jet lag may feel extremely tired for several days. They also may have problems thinking clearly and remembering.

Kwangwook Cho is a researcher at the University of Bristol in Britain. He reported the findings of his jet lag study in the publication Nature Neuroscience.

The study involved twenty young women who worked for international airlines. The women 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.

Mister Cho took some fluid from the women's mouths to measure levels of a hormone that increases during stress. He tested them to see if they could remember where black spots appeared on a computer screen. And he took pictures of their brains using magnetic resonance imaging. This is a way to measure the size of the brain's temporal lobes.

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.

Mister Cho says he 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 affect memory.
