B
American researchers found females are the more talkative sex because of a special “l(fā)anguage protein(蛋白質(zhì))” in the brain.
The study, conducted by neuroscientists (神經(jīng)學(xué)家)and psychologist from the University of Maryland, concluded that women talked more because they had more of the Foxp2 protein. The research, published in the Journal of Neuroscience, found that higher levels were found among humans that were women but in rats that were males. Their findings came after it was previously claimed that ladies speak about 20,000 words a day – over 13,000 more than men. “This study is one of the first to report a sex difference in the expression of a language-associated protein in humans or animals,” said Prof Margaret McCarthy, who led the study. In their study, the researchers attempted to determine what might make male rats more vocal than their female friends.
They separated four-day-old rats from their mothers and then counted the number of times they cried out in the “ultrasonic range”, the frequencies higher than humans can hear, over five minutes. While both sexes called out hundreds of cries, the males called out twice as often, they found. But when the pups were returned to their mother’s cage, she fussed over her sons first. Tests conducted on the parts of the brain known to be associated with vocalcalls showed the male pups have up to twice as much Foxp2 protein as the females. The researchers then increased the production in the brains of female pups and reduced it in males. This led to the female rats crying out more often and their mothers showing more interest to them. In contrast, males became less “talkative”.
The researchers then tested samples from ten children, aged between three and five, which showed that females had up to 30 per cent more of the Foxp2 protein than males, in a brain area key to language in humans.
“Based on our observations, we assume higher levels of Foxp2 in girls and higher levels of Foxp2 in male rats is an indication that Foxp2 protein levels are associated with the more communicative sex,” said Prof McCarthy. “Our results imply Foxp2 as a component of the neurobiological basis of sex differences in vocal communication in mammals. “
1.What can be inferred from the second paragraph?
A. women always speak more words than men.
B. men and male rats have low levels of language protein.
C. McCarthy isn’t the first to find females more talkative
D. women and male rats have similar levels of Foxp2.
2.What does the underlined phrase “fussed over” in the third paragraph mean?
A.relyed on B. related to
C. put pressure on D. paid attention to
3. What’s the purpose of the experiments on rats carried out by the researchers?
A.To test which part of the brain is key to language in rats and humans.
B. To discover the association between Foxp2 protein and vocal communication.
C. To determine the reason why female rats are more talkative than male rats.
D. To prove the levels of Foxp2 protein in humans and rats are different.
4.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage ?
A. Why women are the talkative sex
B. Tests on humans and rats
C. Sex differences in Foxp2 protein
D. Foxp2 protein determines oral ability

A team of scientists from University of Freiburg in Germany are developing a shoe with a sensor to automatically tie its laces(鞋帶)that could be taken off when users click their heels together.
It’s been 26 years since we saw them magically tightening Marty McFly’s Nike boots in the film Back to The Future.
Now,self-tying shoelaces could actually become a reality this year,proving right one of the film’s fantastical predictions for what 2015 would be like.
Engineers have designed a shoe that can automatically lace up,adjusting itself to the shape of your foot.
Simply slip the controller on and pressure sensors will tell the ‘smart shoe’ when your foot is in position,triggering(觸發(fā))a tiny motor in the heel that pulls the laces tight.
When you want to take off the shoes,you click your heels together twice and the motor will release a spring(彈簧)in the shoe’s tongue,which loosens the laces enough for you to slip them off.
And the invention doesn’t even need to be plugged in to charge or have its battery replaced because it runs on power generated by the swing of your foot as you walk.
Engineer K1evis Ylli,of the Institute for Micromachining and Information Technology in southern Gemany,said the shoes could help a variety of different people.
“One focus is that it could be used in shoes for elderly people who have mobility problems,”he said.“But it could also work for children,or as a lifestyle product.”.
The design,which is still in a prototype(雛形)stage,cleverly gets the energy of the foot’s swing when opposing magnets in each shoe move past each other. It then uses that power to charge a battery.An hour of walking is enough to tighten the laces once,and it requires no energy to undo the shoes because that relies on the spring alone.
1.Which of the following can be the best title of the text?
A.A fantastical prediction
B.A great invention in Germany
C.A shoe with self-tying laces
D.A popular lifestyle product
2.What can we learn about the shoes?
A.They can automatically take off.
B.They can adjust themselves to your foot.
C.They need to be charged once.
D.They have been in design for 26 years.
3.From the last paragraph we can know ____________.
A.the shoes have been put into use
B.the shoes need power to take off
C.the shoes promise to be popular
D.how the shoes work to produce energy

A study of more than five million books, both fiction and non-fiction, has found a marked decline in the use of emotional words over time. The researchers form the University of Bristol used Google Ngram Viewer, a facility for finding the frequency of terms in scanned books, to search for more than 600 particular words identified as representing anger, dislike, fear, joy, sadness and surprise.
They found that almost all of the categories showed a drop in these “mood words” over time. Only in the category of fear was there an increase in usage.
“It is a steady and continuous decrease,” said Dr Alberto Acerbi. He assumed that the result might be explained by a change in the position occupied by literature, in a crowded media landscape. “One thing could be that in parallel to books the 20th century saw the start of other media. Maybe these media — movies, radio, drama, had more emotional content than books.”
Although both joy and sadness followed the general downwards trend, the research, published in the journal PLOS One, found that they also exhibited another interesting behaviour:the ratio (比率) between the two varied greatly, apparently mirroring historical events.
During the Roaring Twenties the joy-to-sadness ratio reached a peak that would not occur again until before the recent financial crash. But the ratio plunged at the height of the Second World War. Nevertheless, the researchers held a reserved opinion about their claim that their result reflected wider social trends. In the paper, they even argue that the reverse could be true.
“It has been suggested, for example, that it was the suppression (壓抑) of desire in ordinary Elizabethan English life that increased demand for writing ‘filled with romance and sex’… perhaps,” they conclude, “songs and books may not reflect the real population any more than catwalk models reflect the average body.”
1.The word "decline" (paragraph 1) is closest in meaning to_________.
A. increase B. rise C. decrease D. change
2.A study of more than five million books indicated a decrease in “mood words” over time except_______.
A. in the use of the words of historical events
B. in the category of fear
C. in the category of literature
D. in the category of joy
3.What’s the main idea of this passage?
A. A study of emotional words.
B. A study about vocabulary in literature.
C. Reasons for the use of emotional words decreases in literature.
D. A study on increase in the category of fear.

Leadership is the most significant word in todays competitive business environment because it directs the manager of a business to focus inward on their personal abilities and style.Experts on leadership will quickly point out that“how things get done”influences the success of the outcomes and indicates a right way and a wrong way to do things.When a noted leader on the art of management,Peter Drucker,coined the phrase“Management is doing things right;leadership is doing the right things,”he was seeking to clarify the distinctions he associates with the terms.
