【題目】A team of US psychologists(心理學(xué)家) have found that talking to another person for ten minutes a day helps with memory.

“Socializing(交際) is just as effective as more traditional kinds of mental exercise inboostingmemory and intellectual(智力的) performance,” Oscar Ybarra, a psychologist at the University of Michigan Institute for Social Research, said in a statement.

In one investigation, they analyzed data on 3610 people, aged 24 to 96.

They found that the higher their level of social interaction(交流), the better their cognitive(認知的) functioning. Social interaction includes getting together or having phone chats with relatives, friends and neighbors.

In another experiment, the researchers conducted laboratory tests on 76 college students, aged 18 to 21, to evaluate(評估) how social interactions and intellectual exercises affected the results of memory and mental performance tests.

The students were divided into three groups: the social interaction group had a discussion of a social issue for 10 minutes before taking the tests; the intellectual activities group completed three tasks (including a reading comprehension exercise and a crossword puzzle) before the tests; and a control group(對照組) watched a 10-minute clip(電影片段) of the Seinfeld television show.

“We found that short-term social interaction lasting for just 10 minutes improved participants’ (參與者) intellectual performance as much as engaging in (從事) so-called ‘intellectual’ activities for the same amount of time,” Ybarra said.

The study was expected to be published in the February issue of the journal Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin.

C. Preventing. D. Training.

【2】Which is not included in social interaction?

A. Having a talk with a neighbor.

B. Attending a birthday party.

C. Watching TV at home alone.

D. Calling your classmates.

【3】What’s the purpose of the experiment on 76 college students?

A. To judge the effect of social interaction on memory and intelligence.

B. To find out what is real social interaction.

C. To learn how much time is needed for social interaction.

D. To show the function of people's cognition.

【4】What’s the main idea of the passage?

A. Intellectual exercises make your memory better.

B. Different people have different ways of communication.

C. Communicating with others keeps you healthy.

D. Social interaction makes you smart.

【題目】Robert had just moved into the street and he felt strange that he was not wanted. He knew that perhaps the other boys were trying to get an idea of what kind of boy he was. This did not help to make him less lonely. He was new and he had to be tested. Still, proving himself would not be all that easy. He did not want to run with bad boys or get into something against the law to prove that he was strong. No! He must show what he was made of in a more helpful way. That was when he got the idea. The next day was Saturday. He knew that most of the boys would be down on the playground and choose upsides for the Saturday game. Robert knew he could play well and what just might be enough to prove he was strong—and to make friends with them.

He arrived early and did his step exercises. He shot (投擲) the ball some times and did some other exercises—the most difficult and most wonderful in basketball. Then the boys came. Robert went through what he had done before the game and showed what he could do.

No one said a word. The boys just looked at each other, and thought about it. In the end, when it was all over, the biggest of the group just smiled and shook his head. Robert knew he had made it.

A. Robert felt more lonely because the other boys wanted to test him.

B. Robert did not feel lonely in fact.

C. Robert felt as lonely as before when the other boys tried to find out what kind of boy he was.

D. The other boys did not want to make Robert feel less lonely.

【2】When did Robert decide to prove himself by playing basketball?

A. After he had thought about the two wrong ways.

B. Long before he moved into the street.

C. When the other boys came down to the playground.

D. As soon as he showed what he was made of in front of the other boys.

【3】What did the biggest of the group mean by shaking his head?

A. He did not want to say anything about what Robert had done.

B. He had not thought Robert could play so wonderfully.
