24、   Exercise may help change exercisers’ brains in surprising ways, according to a new study. The study found that exercise prompts the liver to produce a little-known protein, and thus assist out-of-shape, elderly animals activate their brains and memories. The findings raise questions about whether the brain benefits of exercise might someday be available in a pill.

For the study published this month in Science, researchers at the University of California, San Francisco, decided to look inside the minds and bloodstreams of mice. They had both young and elderly mice run for six weeks, and then transfused blood from both groups into elderly, sedentary animals(定栖动物). Afterward, those aged mice performed better on cognitive tests than equally elderly ones, whether their transfusions had come from young runners or old. It was the donors’ activity that mattered, not their age.

Scientists found one little-studied protein known as GPLD1 in the running animal’s blood, which was produced mostly in the liver, an organ not usually thought to have much interplay with the brain.

They also checked blood drawn from people. The older men and women who habitually walked for exercise showed higher levels of GPLD1 in their bloodstreams than those who did not.

The result of these findings seems to be that exercise improves brain health by prompting the liver to produce extra amounts of GPLD1, Dr. Villeda says. He believes that if further experiments show that GPLD1, in isolation, helps to make this chain reaction, then infusions of it might offer the brain benefits of exercise to people who are too weak or disabled for regular physical activity. Dr. Villeda also argues that pharmaceutical GPLD1, even if effective for brain health, "would not replace the benefits of exercise." There would be none of the usual fat burning, or muscle building, he points out.

【1】What does the first paragraph serve as?

A.An explanation of the study. B.A reason for the study.

C.A background of the study. D.An introduction to the study.

【2】What can we learn from the study?

A.Age didn’t play a significant role in boosting brains, but working out did.

B.Mice performed better in tests if their transfusions were from younger ones.

C.The benefits of exercise were put in a pill to activate elder animals’ brains.

D.Younger mice produced less GPLD1 than the elderly even they run longer.

【3】Which of the following would Dr. Villeda agree to?

A.More amounts of GPLD1 will be produced by brain after exercise.

B.People who take GPLD1 pills would not have to do physical exercise.

C.GPLD1 will help weak or disabled people do regular physical activity.

D.The weak or disabled would gain brain benefits of exercise with GPLD1.

【4】What’s the author’s attitude towards the new finding?

A.Positive. B.Objective. C.Negative. D.Skeptical.

26、阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。

A shop owner placed a sign above his door that read:”Puppies for Sale”. Signs like this always have a way of attracting young children,and to no surprise, a boy saw the sign and approached the owner.

“How much are you going to sell the puppies for?” he asked in a low voice.

The store owner replied, Anywhere from $ 30 to $ 50.

The little boy pulled out some change from his pocket. “But I only have $ 2.37,”   he said. “Can I please look at them?”

The shop owner smiled and in no second whistled. Out of the kennel came a lady, who ran down the aisle of his shop followed by five teeny, tiny balls of fur. One puppy was lagging considerably behind. Immediately the little boy singled out the lagging, limping（跛行）puppy and said, “What's wrong with that little dog?”

The shop owner sighed and explained that the vet had examined the little puppy and had discovered it didn't have a hip socket（髋臼）. It would always limp.It would always be lame.

Hearing these words, the little boy became excited, “That is the very puppy that I want to buy.”

“No, you don't want to buy that little dog. If you really want him,I'll just give him to you,” the shop owner said, a little bit confused. The little boy got quite upset. He looked straight into the store owner's eyes, pointing his finger, and said, “I don't want you to give him to me.”
