People who smoke could lose around one third of their everyday memory, researchers say.

A study by a team at the University of Northumbria has shown that smokers lose more of their memory when compared to non-smokers. And the research also found that those who kicked the habit saw their ability to recollect information restored to almost the same level as non-smokers.

The study involved more than seventy 18-to 25-year-old volunteers and included a tour of the university’s campus. Those who took part were asked to recall(回憶;回想)small details, such as music acts listed to play at the students’ union and tasks completed at various points---known as a real-world memory test.

Smokers performed badly, remembering just 59 percent of tasks. But those who had given up smoking remembered 74 percent and those who had never smoked recalled 81 percent of tasks.

Dr. Tom Heffernan, who leads Northumbria University’s Collaboration for Drug and Alcohol Research Group, said the findings would be useful in anti-smoking campaigns. He said, “Given that there are up to 10 million smokers in the UK and as many as 45 million in America, it’s important to understand the effects that smoking has on everyday cognitive function.”

This is the first time that a study has set out to examine whether giving up smoking has an effect on memory. We already know that giving up smoking has huge health benefits to the body, but this study also shows how stopping smoking can bring a series of benefits to cognitive function. The research will now investigate the effects of second-hand smoking on memory, while Dr. Heffernan will look into third-hand smoking, such as toxins (毒素) left on curtains and furniture.

1.What would be the best title for the passage?

A. The Effects That Smoking Has on Health

B. New Research on Third-Hand Smoking

C. Smokers Have Much Worse Everyday Memory

D. Anti-Smoking Campaigns Are Active Around the World

2.The underlined words, “kicked the habit”, in the second paragraph can be replaced by “___________”.

A. giving up smoking B. smoked at times

C. smoked regularly D. hated smoking

3.What was the real-world memory test like?

A. It needed young volunteers to complete some tasks.

B. It was about making a tour of the university’s campus.

C. It needed volunteers to act at the students’ union.

D. It involved a tour and a process of recalling some details.

4.We can learn from the passage that ___________.

A. America has twice as many smokers as the UK

B. the research findings will help anti-smoking campaigns

C. the effects of second-hand smoking on memory have been found by the study

D. those who have stopped smoking have as good a memory as non-smokers

從短文后各題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中,選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項。

Danger-junkie orangutans(猩猩) in Borneo climb dead trees and shake then until they begin to fall. They scream with excitement as they cling to the falling tree. Just before the tree hits the ground the orangutans leap to another tree or vine, narrowly escaping death. While no one cab ask orangutans if they enjoy it as a person playing an extreme sport, one animal behaviorist sees this monkey fun as a bit of harmless thrill-seeking.

A growing number of scientists agree that animals are conscious and capable of experiencing basic emotions(情感), such as happiness, sadness, boredom or depression. A few scientists even see the possibility for higher animal emotions like love, jealousy and spite.

Five years ago, behaviorist and animal-rights activist Dr. Jonathan Balcombe stood on a Virginia hotel balcony watching two crows intimately groom (清潔) each other in the comfort of an abandoned billboard. He felt that the birds liked what they were doing, even if engaged in a natural, beneficial act, such as picking parasites (寄生蟲) off the other’s feathers. That moment changed the way he would view animals forever and led to a book, “Pleasurable Kingdom: Animals and the Nature of Feeling Good”, which is filled with hundreds of examples of animals living it up thanks to developed senses of touch, taste, sight, sound and smell.

Balcombe recounts a favorite example of Kenyan hippos (河馬) having high-end spa treatment in a fresh water spring. They splay their toes, open their mouths wide and wait for a school of cleaner fish to remove parasites and slough off dead skin, he recalls. Balcombe knows that the hippos and the fish both benefit from this arrangement. “My interpretation is that it is also enjoyable for them ,” he says.

1.Danger-junkie orangutans shook the tree to ________.

A. get some fruits B. enjoy themselves

C. train their escaping skills D. frighten other animals

2.The purpose of the first paragraph is to ________.

A. describe an unusual scene among animals

B. give an example that animals can experience pleasure

C. make a comparison between monkeys with humans

D. show that animals can avoid danger

3.The passage leads us to the belief that _____.

A. animals can experience emotions

B. animals have a way to adapt to their environment

C. animals can copy what humans do

D. animals are only eat-or-be-eaten beasts

4.We can conclude from the passage that ________.

A. only a few animals have emotions

B. Balcombe’s theory is not supported by other scientists

C. Balcombe has watched a lot of animals showing emotions

D. Balcombe can understand animal language

As I drive about the Sois in rural Thailand I catch little glimpses of things that barely register on the mind as the scenery flies by; strange things, beautiful things, sad things, interesting things. I wish I could hold on to these scenes; explore them in detail. I wish that I had the time to stop and investigate further as I’m driving by, but time is a commodity(商品) worth more than all the moneys in the world. I wish I had more.

I once had a guy wave to me as I passed him. He yelled out something, almost in greeting, as if he knew me. I wonder if we knew each other once, in another place, another time, and he recognized my soul as I drove by in the truck, and just had to yell a hello. I wish I had stopped and said hello too.

I saw two young girls, dressed in school uniforms. White blouses, blue skirts, books in hand. They were holding hands, talking, walking down the road, jostling(推,搡) each other with their shoulders and teasing each other as they strolled along. As I passed the one closest to the truck looked up. She was close enough to touch almost. Her smiling face, her clear eyes and golden smooth skin are there in my mind’s eye now. I can see her as if she were standing next to me. Once in a while her face just pops into my head. Why? Why is she still there? Sometimes I think maybe I’m a bit mad.

I stopped at a road stop on a corner one time. An old lady standing by the roadside walked over to the truck and put her hand on my arm and smiled at me. Her palm was so cool. It must have been a hundred degrees out that day. She said something in Thai and giggle (咯咯地笑) and walked away. Who was she? Why did she touch me? Why was her hand so cool? Why did I just sit there and let her touch me? I didn’t flinch (退縮) away. It was almost as if I knew her, and we were just saying a quick hello. Her cool touch almost seemed familiar; like my long dead grandmother’s soothing cool touch remembered from when I was just a little boy.

I need more time. I need to stop the truck more often, and just say hello. Things glimpsed along the road are often far more interesting and wonderful than that which seems to consume our daily lives. Slow down. Stop the truck. Get out, and say hello.

1.What kind of life does the writer normally lead?

A. Busy. B. Tiring.

C. Meaningless. D. Boring.

2.The man (in Paragraph Two) yelled out because he ________.

A. had met the writer before

B. recognized the writer’s soul

C. wanted to show friendliness

D. mistook me as one of his friends

3.The writer describes the two school girls in great details to show ________.

A. his liking for them

B. that he was kind of crazy

C. his interest in observing people

D. the deep impression they left on him

4.Why does the author compare the old lady with his grandmother?

A. The old lady behaved like his grandmother.

B. He suggests the old lady had very cold hands.

C. He suggests the old lady’s touch was comforting.

D. The old lady reminded the writer of his entire childhood.
