23、

Everybody has a brain, but not many people know how the brain works. Some people believe that the brain is like the hard disk of a computer. We use it to store files, pictures, language (words, texts, sounds) and so on. Others think the brain to be a huge cupboard with lots of shelves and boxes in it. We put information into these boxes and hope to find it again later.

The brain is not a computer disk. And it isn’t a cupboard. Look at the picture here. It looks a bit like weeds (杂草) in a garden, doesn’t it? The picture actually shows a child’s neocortex—a part of the brain that controls sight and hearing. You can guess what happens—more “weeds” grow as the child gets older. Scientists call these neuronal (神经元的) networks. The networks grow around our neurons.

What makes them grow? Learning! “Learning is brain change,” says Professor James Zull from Case Western University in Cleveland, Ohio, USA. “Without learning, nothing changes in the brain. For every new word you learn in your English lesson, every problem you solve in maths, every new song you learn to sing, a neuronal network grows in your brain and the brain changes.”

The more neuronal networks we grow, the better we can think and the better we remember. You may wonder if there is anything you can do to make the networks in your brain grow better. Professor Zull says yes, there is. He says that brain change is strongest when you are interested in and like what you are learning, you are in control of what you learn and you get challenging tasks that make you think hard. Understanding a challenging task makes you feel good and develops your brain.

【1】What’s the main idea of Paragraph 1?

A．The brain—a fantastic computer.

B．What people believe about the brain.

C．How to make your brain stronger.

D．Our brain—a growing system.

【2】Which of the following things cannot make our brain grow better?

A．Learning new words in your favorite English class.

B．Being the first to work out a math problem.

C．Singing old songs when you are feeling bad.

D．Drawing a mind map after reading a new story.

【3】What’s the best title for the passage?

A．Interest is the best teacher

B．Go to meet life’s challenges

C．Never too late to learn

D．Learning really makes people clever

24、根据短文内容及首字母提示，写出所缺单词，使短文内容完整、正确。

Yancheng National Nature Reserve in Jiangsu was set up in 1983. More than three million wild birds live there all year r【1】. People can visit the wetland any time, but they mustn’t fish or hunt there. S【2】 , some people killed wild animals in both Yancheng and other nature reserves in the past years. Once, five young men wanted to kill wild ducks with poisonous(有毒的) food and s【3】 them for money. The police caught two of them when they came back days later t【4】 pick up the dead ducks.
