Like the body, the memory improves with use. Unlike the body, the memory can improve with

age.

For many years, doctors have been studying the way the brain works. We all know that the brain has two sides, the left and the right. The right side controls the senses (seeing, hearing, feeling, tasting and smelling), and is the creative and imaginative side. The left side of the brain controls our logical thinking. It processes the information which comes in, and puts it into order, We call the left side the "educated" side of the brain and generally, in western societies, people have developed this side of the brain more than the fight side.

Scientists believe that our brain will work much more efficiently if both the right side and the left side are developed equally. In many schools today, teachers try to educate the children in such a way that both sides of the brain are used. This can be done with logical subjects including mathematics and science as well as with creative subjects such as art and literature. The result achieved by students who are educated in this way is usually better than the result of students who are educated in a more traditional way. Traditional teaching tends to exercise the left side of the brain without paying very much attention to the development of the right side.

great thinkers such as Bertand Russell the Philosopher, and Albert Einstein, the scientist, only in their work, but also in creative and imaginative activities. It was because of their many different interests in life that they were able to achieve the full development of both sides of their brain.

As long as Einstein and Russell lived, their brains functioned efficiently. It was their bodies, finally, which could not go on any longer.

The body improves ______.

A.with age

B.with use

C.with memory

D.with development

__________

[A] German-born British scholar Max Müller concluded that the Rig-Veda of ancient India-the oldest preserved body of literature written in an Indo-European language-reflected the earliest stages of an Indo-European mythology. M ller attributed all later myths to misunderstandings that arose from the picturesque terms in which early peoples described natural phenomena.

[B] The myth and ritual theory, as this approach came to be called, was developed most fully by British scholar Jane Ellen Harrison. Using insight gained from the work of French sociologist Emile Durkheim, Harrison argued that all myths have their origin in collective rituals of a society.

[C] Austrian psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud held that myths—like dreams—condense the material of experience and represent it in symbols.

[D] This approach can be seen in the work of British anthropologist Edward Burnett Tylor. In Primitive Culture (1871), Tylor organized the religious and philosophical development of humanity into separate and distinct evolutionary stages.

[E] The studies made in this period were consolidated in the work of German scholar Christian Gottolob Heyne, who was the first scholar to use the Latin term myths (instead of fibula, meaning “fable”) to refer to the tales of heroes and gods.

[F] German scholar Karl Otfried M ller followed this line of inquiry in his Prolegomena to a Scientific Mythology, 1825).

Many years ago, children wore clothes that were the same as the clothes worn by adults, ex
cept that

they were smaller. People believed that children were just “small adults”, and expected them to dress and act like adults.

But now people know much more about children. In both body and mind, children are different from adults because they are at a different stage of development. As far as the body is concerned, it is obvious. A baby of six months can sit up, but can not run, and so on. But the development of the mind is not so obvious. A small child, for example, does not understand the difference between the present and the fu ture. So if the child asks for an apple and the parent says,“ No, not now, you can have one after lunch." The child often cries. Some mothers think the child is being difficult, but perhaps he is just being differ ent; he does not understand the idea of the future, and for him ”not now means “never”. So naturally, the child cries.

People used to believe that ______.

A.children should wear adults'

B.children were the same as adults, except that they were smaller

C.children acted like adults

D.children were adults in small clothes

Look at a man walking down a street or road in' the sunlight and you will see his shadow.
If you watch two men walking in the sunlight and carrying a six-fool pane(窗玻璃片) of glass between them, you will see each man six feet apart, but there will be no shadow of the pane of glass.

Shadows are easily explained since we know that light travels in a straight line. We also know that light waves pass through some bodies and not through others.

When light strikes a body and passes through it unchanged, we call such a body or material transparent. Most glass is such a material, especially window glass, and it is for this reason that we do not see the shadow of the window pane which the men are carrying. Do you know of any other transparent materials? The most common one, with which we are familiar, is air. Another is clear water.

On the other hand, some materials do not let light pass through them at all. They stop the light waves just as you would-catch a ball that was being thrown to someone standing between you. Such materials are called opaque. Men' s bodies, like steel, rock, concrete or even cardboard, are opaque and do not permit the light to pass through. An opaque body casts a shadow.

The title that best expresses the ideas of the passage is ______.

A.Why are there shadows

B.The transparent materials

C.How to cast a shadow

D.Shadows and light waves

Are you aware that you actually possess six senses? The sixth is a muscular sense responsi
ble for directing your muscles intelligently to the extent necessary for each action you perform. For example, when you reach for an object, the sensory nerves linking the muscles to the brain stop your hand at the correct spot. This automatic perception of the position of your muscles in relation to the object is your muscular sense in action.

Muscles are stringly bundles of fibers varying from one five - thousand of an inch to about three inches. They have three unique characteristics, they can become shorter and thicker; they can stretch; and they can retract to their original positions. Under a high -powered microscope, muscle tissue is seen as long, slender cells with a grainy texture like wood.

More than half of a person' s body is composed of muscle fibers, most of which are involuntary, in other words, work without conscious direction. The voluntary muscles, those that we move consciously to perform. particular actions, number more than five hundred. Women have only 60 to 70 percent as much muscle as men for their body mass. That is why an average woman can' t lift as much, throw as far, or hit as hard as an average man.

According to the selection, the muscular sense is responsible for ______ .

A.the efficiency of our muscles

B.the normal breathing function

C.directing our muscles intelligently

D.the work of only our involuntary muscles

Passage Two

Only one animal can walk 200 miles without stopping once to rest. It would take a person two days and two nights to walk this far, and only one man has ever done it without stopping. What amazing animal has such endurance? The camel! The camel is well known for something else, too. It can cross an entire desert without a single drink of water. Its body is built in a special way to help it store water and food.

A person has just one stomach, but a camel has quite a few. Within each stomach are layers and layers of cells. These cells are like tiny water balloons, storing liquids until the camel needs them. When the camel drinks, the cells grow larger and larger. For a whole week, they can keep the animal's thirst away by sending water to all parts of its body.

And did you ever wonder why the camel has a hump? The hump is a storage place for fat. Because it has this storage area, the camel does not need to eat very often. When the animal needs energy, the layers of fat serve as fuel to keep it going on the long, hot days in the burning sun.

The camel has one other gift that makes it well suited to arid regions. This gift is its amazing nose. A camel can smell a water hole from miles away!

When a camel moves it sways from side to side like a ship on a wavy ocean. Because of this swaying motion, the camel has been called the "Ship of the Desert."

40. The camel's hump is a storage place for ______.

A. muscles

B. extra water

C. body sugars

D. fat
