Tips for Staying Sharp
It's not abnormal to feel out of it from time to time or perhaps you're feeling a bit sluggish(遲鈍的)when it comes to remembering things. If you're worried about your forgetfulness, try out these five tips to stay sharp.

You've probably heard the term “you are what you eat.” If you decide to eat sugary foods that are heavy with fats then expect to feel lazy and have no energy. But if you decide to eat fruits, vegetables and make other healthy eating decisions you'll find that you're full of energy.
Never stop learning
Challenge yourself constantly---whether it is puzzles, reading, cooking or other tasks that will keep your mind working. If your mind is always learning new things and active, you'll realize that it's much easier for you to learn new things and to function.
Stay fit
Being in good health and staying in shape is a big part of staying sharp.If you choose to be lazy then your body is not going to give you the energy that requires remembering things and completing tasks. However, if you put forth the effort into being health then your body will expel(釋放)the energy you need to achieve your goals.
Ensure enough sleep
Be sure to get the necessary amount of sleep that your body needs to function on a daily basis.It also helps your body build up an energy reserve so you can improve your ability to focus and avoid distractions.
Socialize more
Social interaction will help you develop multitasking, problem solving and other skills that are necessary in life to keep your mind sharp.
A. Feed your brain
B. Avoid eating too much
C. Your body will only give you what you put into it
D. Lack of sleep contributes to tiredness and slow reaction
E. Conversations require individuals to stay aware and active
F. According to studies, sleep helps strengthen and recover your memories
G. Remember you brain is a muscle and if you want to get the most out of it, you must use it

【答案】A;G;C;F;E
【解析】本文是一篇說明文,主要向我們介紹了幾種保持頭腦敏銳的方法,主要有:喂養(yǎng)你的大腦,永遠不要停止學習,保持健康,保證充足的睡眠等。

(1)根據(jù)本段第一句話“You've probably heard the term “you are what you eat.” 你可能聽說過“你吃什么”這個詞。以及下面的內容可知本段主要講的是“你吃什么”對你一天的狀態(tài)有至關重要的影響?崭駷楸径蔚闹黝}句,觀察全文可得出主題句為祈使句,A符合語境,故選A。

(2)根據(jù)前文“ If your mind is always learning new things and active, you'll realize that it's much easier for you to learn new things and to function.”如果你的頭腦總是在學習新事物和活動,你會意識到學習新事物和發(fā)揮功能要容易得多。G項Remember you brain is a muscle and if you want to get the most out of it, you must use it(記住你的大腦是一塊肌肉,如果你想充分利用它,你就必須使用它。)是對前文的進一步補充說明。故選G。

(3)根據(jù)后文“If you choose to be lazy then your body is not going to give you the energy that requires remembering things and completing tasks. ”如果你選擇懶惰,那么你的身體就不會給你需要記住事情和完成任務的能量。可知你的身體只會給你你投入的東西。C符合語境,故選C。

(4)根據(jù)標題“Ensure enough sleep(保證充足的睡眠)”以及下文“ It also helps your body build up an energy reserve so you can improve your ability to focus and avoid distractions.”它還能幫助你的身體建立能量儲備,從而提高你集中注意力和避免分心的能力。可知空格處講的是一個充足睡眠的好處。F符合語境,故選F。

(5)根據(jù)后文“ that are necessary in life to keep your mind sharp”生活中保持頭腦敏銳是必須的。可知我們在社交中講話要求保持頭腦清楚。E符合語境,故選E。

Scientists often see the first ten years of a child's life as the “window of opportunity”.And studies show that the following activities can benefit their brain greatly.
Free playtime has always been an important part of “being a kid”, but it is also important to a child's development. “Free play” not only helps kids develop different skills, it also helps them develop into happy healthy adults in the future.
Read with kids
Reading has long been known to improve children's intelligence. For parents who don't have much time, just surrounding your kids with books goes a long way too.
Put kids to bed early
Preschool children should get at least eleven hours of sleep and kids up to age 12 should try to get at least ten hours of sleep.
Learn a second language
Early studies in this field have shown that bilingual (雙語的)kids can perform better under pressure. Young children can learn new languages with nearly perfect fluency (流利)and pronunciation.
Praise good effort not intelligence
Your kids may be smart but you should mainly praise the effort they put into tasks. Kids, who are praised on intelligence, often feel it is a fixed quality, and mistakes or failures badly hurt their self-confidence. Kids who are praised on effort often focus more on learning.
A. Play some helpful games
B. Give them enough playtime
C. And they are not afraid to fail and try again
D. Kids still need time away from the TV to do homework

There are a lot of people who are overweight all over the world. What causes obesity? If you get the gene(基因), well, probably you are going to be a few more pounds heavier compared to the rest of your classmates or friends. Obesity can not only make a person look heavy, and not in the usual sense of being handsome, but can also lead to serious health conditions and life-threatening diseases.
Indeed, junk food has been blamed for the prevalence(流行)of obesity. It is called junk food, because hamburger, pizza and the like contain high calories. If you eat a Big Mac (a super hamburger), an order of large fries, and a large Coke, you will need to walk non-stop for six hours to burn off the calories you have gained. And don't be fooled by soft drinks, which are high in sugar and are a major cause of obesity.
Popular sugary drinks, of course, include Coca Cola, Pepsi(百事) Cola, and many new brands that appear on the market every couple of days.
Just one 20-ounce (about 567g) bottle of soda can have 250 calories, which are equal to more than 16 teaspoons of added sugars. Even a lemon-flavored iced tea can have 210 calories.
Next time, when you are ready to eat that huge Mac and to drink that two-liter bottle of Pepsi, probably it's a good idea to give it a second thought.
A. Obesity is more common in women than men.
B. Most people don't realize how easy it is to gain weight from drink sugar-sweetened beverages(飲料)
C. When we talk about obesity, the first thought that comes to mind is: junk food.
D. The unburnt calories will put weight on you.
E. Keeping healthy is our own responsibility.
F. Because of their high content of sugar, soft drinks are also called sugary drinks.
G. However, the most common cause of obesity is eating too much, especially too much junk food.

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
Meeting people from another culture can be difficult. From the beginning, people may send the wrong signal. Or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship.
Different cultures emphasize the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree. For example, business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust. Even with people at work, it is necessary to spend a lot of time in "small talk", usually over a glass of tea, before they do any job. In many European countries, like the UK or France, people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or cafe rather than at the office.
Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures. I once made a speech in Thailand. I had expected my speech to be a success and start a lively discussion, instead there was an uncomfortable silence. The people present just stared at me and smiled. After getting to know their ways better, I realized that they thought I was talking too much. In my own culture, we express meaning mainly through words, but people there sometimes feel too many words are unnecessary.
Even within Northern Europe, cultural differences can cause serious problems. Certainly, English and German cultures share similar values, however, Germans prefer to get down to business more quickly. We think that they are rude. In fact, this is just because one culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly.
People from different parts of the world have different values, and sometimes these values are quite against each other. However, if we can understand them better, a multicultural environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other.
(1)What's the probable meaning of the underlined word “emphasize”?
A.To draw special attention to.
B.To ignore.
C.To laugh at.
D.To get close to.
(2)The author mentions his experience in Thailand to show that _____.
A.the English prefer to make long speeches
B.too many words are of no use
C.people from Thailand are quiet and shy by nature
D.even talk and silence can be culturally different
(3)According to the text, how can people from different cultures understand each other better?
A.By sharing different ways of life.
B.By accepting different habits.
C.By recognizing different values.
D.By speaking each other's languages.
(4)What would be the best title for the text?
A.Multicultural Environment
B.Cross-Cultural Differences.
C.How to Understand Each Other.
D.How to Build Up a Relationship.

【題目】根據(jù)短文內容的理解,選擇正確答案。 Working as a volunteer is sure to enrich your life, and the lives of others, in more ways than you could ever imagine. It's an exciting and personally inspiring experience and you'll develop memories that will be with you forever.
As a volunteer, you're making a meaningful contribution, working side-by-side with local people and sharing in the goals of a community that warmly welcomes you.

Increasing your social awareness, gaining self-confidence, building a sense of independence, discovering your strengths and talents, developing skills, expanding your social circle and developing a job finding network are just some of the potential benefits that will result from your volunteering experiences. You will get as much out of volunteering as you put into it—and quite often, you will get a whole lot more.
