However, not all brains age the same way. For example, womens brains may age more slowly than mens. Researchers, from Washington University
35、School of Medicine in St. Louis, wanted to find out how the brain uses sugar. To do that, they studied just over 200 brains of men and women aged 20 to 80. They used PET scans to look at the flow of oxygen and sugar in the brains. The researchers found that the brains of women looked nearly four yea
36、rs younger than the brains of men who were born in the same year. Their findings suggest that the brains of men and women may use sugar differently as they age. But the researchers do not know why. Some scientists suggest that hormones(荷尔蒙)could play a part. “How the brain uses fuel, ” one of the re
37、searchers said, “might help us understand some of the differences we see between men and women as they age. ”What happens as our brains age?

38、od flow may lessen and inflammation (炎症) may increase. All these changes slow our cognitive abilities. We have trouble remembering things, finishing complex tasks or paying attention. Given what scientists already know about aging, the recent study about sex differences in the brain has raised some
39、questions. For one, if womens brains age more slowly than mens, why do more women get Alzheimers disease? Alzheimers disease is a progressive brain disorder that cannot be stopped. It slowly destroys memory, thinking skills and, eventually, the ability to carry out the simplest of tasks. Alzheimers
40、disease does not have a cure. However, doctors say that between 50 to 60 percent of Alzheimers cases can be prevented by simple lifestyle changes. Whether you are a man or a woman, here are some things you can do to keep your brain young and healthy. Sleep is the easiest and best thing you can do to
41、 keep your brain young. Experts say you should try to get around seven hours of sleep each night. Get aerobic exercise (有氧训练) for 30 to 40 minutes three to four times a week. Exercise helps you grow brain cells and improves blood flow in the brain. Eat a healthy diet. Doctors say any diet that is go
42、od for the heart is also good for the brain. Do activities that make you excited and happy. Spend time with family and friends. 【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。最新研究发现, 大脑的衰老速度因人而异, 因此要多锻炼来保养它, 从而预防脑部疾病。12. Whats the purpose of the researchers using the PET scans?A. To see the blood flow in the brains. B. To find out
43、 some medicine for brain aging. C. To find out reasons for brain aging. D. To examine Alzheimers disease. 【解析】选A。推理判断题。根据文章第一段They used PET scans to look at the flow of oxygen and sugar in the brains(他们用PET扫描观察大脑中的氧气和糖的流动)可知, 研究人员使用PET扫描的目的是观察大脑中的血流。故选A。13. What does the underlined word “cognitive”
44、in Paragraph 2 most probably mean?A. Communicative. B. Intelligent. C. Regular. D. Natural. 【解析】选B。词义猜测题。根据文章第二段Communication between neurons may decrease. Blood flow may lessen and inflammation may increase. All these changes slow our cognitive abilities. 可知, 神经元之间的交流可能会减少, 血流可能会减少, 炎症可能会增加, 所有这些变化
45、都减缓了我们的认知能力。B项“有智力的”比其他选项更贴切。故选B。14. According to the passage, what can stop your brain from aging?A. Having PET scans. B. Controlling the brain flood. C. Exercising and having a diet good for the heart. D. Keeping away from illness like Alzheimers disease. 【解析】选C。细节理解题。根据文章最后一段Eat a healthy diet. D
46、octors say any diet that is good for the heart is also good for the brain(吃健康的饮食。医生说任何有益于心脏的饮食都对大脑有好处)可知, 锻炼和有益于心脏的饮食能减缓你的大脑老化。故选C。15. What can we conclude from the passage?A. Women are more intelligent than men. B. More men have Alzheimers disease than women at the same age. C. Womens brains are la
47、rger than mens at the same age. D. Parts of the brain will get smaller as our brains age. 【解析】选D。细节理解题。根据文章第二段Parts of the brain get smaller, especially those important to learning and other complex mental activities. 可知, 大脑的某些部分变得更小, 尤其是那些对学习和其他复杂的心理活动很重要的部分。故选D。【知识拓展】Given what scientists already
48、know about aging, the recent study about sex differences in the brain has raised some questions. 考虑到科学家们对衰老已有的了解, 最近关于大脑性别差异的研究又提出了一些问题。Given鉴于;考虑到。后面是what引导的宾语从句。第二节(共5小题;每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5分)阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Making a budget can be quite a satisfying process.
