5.People who enjoy a dream-filled sleep are better at recalling information and making links between facts when waking.But recharging with a shallow (小睡) offers no such mental improvement,the research suggests.The results of the study added to the growing body of evidence that Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep is very important to the brain's ability to form strong memories.
An average night's rest includes four or five spells of REM sleep,but these bursts tend to be lengthier towards the end of the night.This means adults getting less than the recommended seven to eight hours a night--and therefore inadequate REM sleep--may be damaging their mind's ability to memorize:Although REM sleep is not classified as a type of deep sleep,it is only reached after the brain has passed through deep sleep stages.
In the recent study,participants were shown groups of three words and asked to find another word that can be associated with all three words.They were tested once in the morning and then given the same task again in the afternoon.In between,some were allowed a nap with REM sleep,some a nap without REM sleep,while the others had a quiet rest period.The quiet rest and non-REM sleep groups didn't improve,but the REM sleep group improved on their morning performance by an average of almost 40 per cent.Dr Sara Mednick,a sleep researcher at the University of California who led the study,believes the formation of connections between previously unassociated information in the brain occurs during REM sleep.
It is believed that sleep acts as a sort of mental filing system,enabling the brain to sort relevant information from useless information.This process may take place as memories are removed hem one art of the brain to others.

14.Bad breath can be a major problem.The good news is that it can often be prevented with some simple steps.
Bad breath is caused by certain bacteria that grow in the mouth.When you don't brush regularly,bacteria accumulate in your mouth and between your teeth.(36)ACertain foods,especially ones like garlic and onions that contain pungent (辛辣的)oils,can contribute to bad breath because the oils are carried to your lungs and out through your mouth.(37)CSome people think that as long as you brush your teeth,you shouldn't have bad breath.(38)EThat,however,just doesn't remove the smell.To sufficiently clean all the surfaces of your teeth,you should brush for at least 2minutes at least twice a day.
Many people believe that if you breathe into your hand,you'll know when you have bad breath.But it's wrong!(39)GWhen you talk,you tend to bring out the smell from the back of your mouth (where bad breath starts),which simply breathing doesn't do.Also,because we tend to get used to our own smells,it's hard for a person to tell if he or she has bad breath.
If you're concerned about bad breath,make sure you're taking care of your teeth and mouth properly.If you brush properly and visit your dentist for regular cleanings but your bad breath persists,you may have a medical problem.(40)BThey can figure out if something else is behind your bad breath and help you take care of it.
A.These bacteria make your breath smell.
B.In that case,call your doctor or dentist.
C.Smoking is also a major cause of bad breath.
D.Remember to brush your tongue,too-bacteria love to hang out there.
E.The truth is that most people only brush their teeth for 30to 45seconds.
F.When you breathe,the smell bounced back by your hand can be easily sensed.
G.When you breathe,you don^use your throat the same way you do when you talk.

15.Guide for Teenagers
The teenage years can be tough,and it's normal to feel sad every now and then.But if these feelings don't go away or become so intense that you can't handle them,you may be suffering from depression.
(36)G.
Try not to isolate yourself
When you're depressed,you may not feel like seeing anybody or doing anything.Just getting out of bed in the morning can be difficult,but isolating yourself only makes depression worse.(37)D.Spend time with friends,especially those who are active.
Keep your body healthy
Making healthy lifestyle choices can do wonders for your moods.Ever heard of"Runners High"?Physical activity can be as effective as medications for depression,so get involved in sports,ride your bike,or take a dance class.Any activity helps!(38)B.As for food,make sure you're feeding your mind with plenty of fruits,vegetables,and whole grains.
Avoid alcohol and drugs
You maybe try drinking or use drugs in an effort to escape from your feelings and get a"mood boost",even if just for a short time.However,substance abuse can not only make depression worse,but can cause you to become more depressed.(39)E.You will need special treatment for your substance abuse problem.
(40)A
Stress and worry can lead to depression.Talk to a teacher if exams or classes seem overwhelming.In addition,if you have a health concern you feel you can't talk to your parents  about,see a doctor.A health professional can help you approach your parents and guide you toward appropriate treatment.If you're dealing with relationships,friendships,or family problems,talk to an adult you trust.
A.Ask for help if you are stressed 
B.Even a short walk can be beneficial
C.Turn to your parents for help
D.As you get out into the world,you may find yourself feeling better
E.In short,drinking and taking drugs will make you feel worse-not better-in the long run
F.The more exercise you do,the healthier you will be
G.Help is available and you have more power than you think.

17.Easy Ways to Keep Your Brain Sharp
Everyone is forgetful,but as we age,we start to feel like our brains are slowing down a bit and that can be a very annoying thing.(36)F Read on for some techniques worth trying.
1.(37)A.
People who regularly made plans and looked forward to upcoming events had a 50percent reduced chance of Alzheimer's disease (早老性癡呆癥),according to a recent study.(38)E.Something as simple as setting a goal to have a weekly coffee date with a friend will do.There's evidence that people who have a purpose in life or who are working on long or short-term goals appear to do better.In other words,keep your brain looking forward.
2.Go for a walk.
Mildly raised glucose (葡萄糖) levels can harm the area of the brain that helps you form memories and physical activity can help get blood glucose down to normal levels.In fact,exercise produces chemicals that are good for your brain.(39)G
3.Learn something new.
Take a Spanish class online,join a drawing club,or learn to play cards.A study found that mental stimulation (刺激) limits the weakening effects of aging on memory and the mind.But the best thing for your brain is when you learn something new and are physically active at the same time.(40)Cor go dancing with your friends.

A.Focus on the future.
B.This can be especially harmful to the aged.
C.It should be something like learning gardening.
D.So take a few minutes each day to do some reading.
E.But don't worry if your schedule isn't filled with life-changing events.
F.Luckily,research shows there is a lot you can do to avoid those moments.
G.In other words,when you take care of your body,you take care of your brain.

14.A61.Susan is a big eater.She usually has a lot at every meal.So she wonders whether she could only eat less for the first meal of a day to lose weight.
C62.Tina is a fat girl who doesn't like exercise much.She just wants to lose weight by eating less but not doing exercise.
E63.Maggie is a busy office lady.She usually has to work overtime every day.So she could only have her dinner late at night.She wants to be slimmer so that she could be much more attractive.
D64.Judy is a fashionable designer.She hopes to have a slim shape as models.She usually doesn't have any regular meal,but has some snacks when she is hungry.

A.If you eat less for breakfast,you have a lower chance of losing weight.Breakfast is important.It gives the body sufficient energy to sustain itself through the morning,and it also stimulates metabolic (新陳代謝) activity in the body.Metabolism is what consumes fat and what makes us slimmer.So,don't forget to eat something for the breakfast.
B.What makes people fat is not the number of calories for one meal,but the total accumulated over time.So don't expect your weight to drop when you eat less for just one meal.This needs to be sustained over a period of time.After some time,you will notice a change.
C.Many people stop doing exercise when they eat less.When you do this,your body will burn less fat.So even if people take in less calories,they get rid of less too.The balance is then unchanged.
D.People gain fat not from the food they eat,but from the number of calories in the food.For example,a bunch of vegetables has just one tenth the calories contained in a small bit of chocolate cake.So make sure you have adequate regular meals,but firmly say no to various snacks,milk tea or even instant noodles.
E.If you ate your last meal right before going to bed,the calories accumulated from this meal could be twice the amount accumulated from a same meal if you ate it another time during the day.
