It's not abnormal to feel out of it from time to time or perhaps you're feeling a bit sluggish(遲鈍的)when it comes to remembering things. If you're worried about your forgetfulness, try out these five tips to stay sharp.

You've probably heard the term “you are what you eat.” If you decide to eat sugary foods that are heavy with fats then expect to feel lazy and have no energy. But if you decide to eat fruits, vegetables and make other healthy eating decisions you'll find that you're full of energy.
Never stop learning
Challenge yourself constantly---whether it is puzzles, reading, cooking or other tasks that will keep your mind working. If your mind is always learning new things and active, you'll realize that it's much easier for you to learn new things and to function.
Stay fit
Being in good health and staying in shape is a big part of staying sharp. If you choose to be lazy then your body is not going to give you the energy that requires remembering things and completing tasks. However, if you put forth the effort into being health then your body will expel(釋放)the energy you need to achieve your goals.
Ensure enough sleep
Be sure to get the necessary amount of sleep that your body needs to function on a daily basis. It also helps your body build up an energy reserve so you can improve your ability to focus and avoid distractions.
Socialize more
Social interaction will help you develop multitasking, problem solving and other skills that are necessary in life to keep your mind sharp.
A. Feed your brain
B. Avoid eating too much
C. Your body will only give you what you put into it
D. Lack of sleep contributes to tiredness and slow reaction
E. Conversations require individuals to stay aware and active
F. According to studies, sleep helps strengthen and recover your memories
G. Remember you brain is a muscle and if you want to get the most out of it, you must use it

【答案】A;G;C;F;E
【解析】本文主要向我們介紹了保持頭腦敏銳的幾種方法,主要有:喂養(yǎng)你的大腦,永遠不要停止學習,保持健康,保證充足的睡眠等。
(1)根據(jù)本段第一句話“You've probably heard the term “you are what you eat.” 你可能聽說過“你吃什么”這個詞。以及下面的內(nèi)容可知本段主要講的是“你吃什么”對你一天的狀態(tài)有至關(guān)重要的影響?崭駷楸径蔚闹黝}句,觀察全文可得出主題句為祈使句,A符合語境,故選A。
(2)根據(jù)前文“ If your mind is always learning new things and active, you'll realize that it's much easier for you to learn new things and to function.”如果你的頭腦總是在學習新事物和活動,你會意識到學習新事物和發(fā)揮功能要容易得多。G項Remember you brain is a muscle and if you want to get the most out of it, you must use it(記住你的大腦是一塊肌肉,如果你想充分利用它,你就必須使用它。)是對前文的進一步補充說明。故選G。
(3)根據(jù)后文“If you choose to be lazy then your body is not going to give you the energy that requires remembering things and completing tasks. ”如果你選擇懶惰,那么你的身體就不會給你需要記住事情和完成任務的能量?芍愕纳眢w只會給你你投入的東西。C符合語境,故選C。

【題目】閱讀理解
Ask someone what they have done to help the environment recently and they will almost certainly mention recycling. Recycling in the home is very important of course. However, being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need. We are dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place.
The total amount of packaging increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005. It now makes up a third of a typical household's waste in the UK. In many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard.
Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment. The UK, for example, is running out of it for carrying this unnecessary waste. If such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect. Recycling helps, but the process itself uses energy. The solution is not to produce such items in the first place. Food waste is a serious problem, too. Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need. However, a few of them are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue, encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags, for example.
But this is not just about supermarkets. It is about all of us. We have learned to associate packaging with quality. We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality. This is especially true of food. But it also applies to a wide range of consumer products, which often have far more packaging than necessary.
There are signs of hope. As more of us recycle, we are beginning to realize just how much unnecessary material we are collecting. We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture, but we have a mountain to climb.
(1)What does the underlined phrase “over-consumption” refer to?
A.Using too much packaging.
B.Recycling too many wastes.
C.Making more products than necessary.
D.Having more material than is needed.
(2)The author uses figures in Paragraph 2 to show _______.
A.the tendency of cutting household waste
B.the increase of packaging recycling
C.the rapid growth of supermarkets
D.the fact of packaging overuse
(3)What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?
A.Unpackaged products are of bad quality.
B.Supermarkets care more about packaging.
C.It is improper to judge quality by packaging.
D.Other products are better packaged than food.
(4)What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.Fighting wastefulness is difficult.
B.Needless material is mostly recycled.
C.People like collecting recyclable waste.
D.The author is proud of their consumer culture.
