　　If you want to stay young, sit down and have a good think．This is the research finding of a team of Japanese doctors, who said that most of our brains are not getting enough 　　1　　, and as a result, we are 　　2　　 old unnecessarily soon．

　　Professor Matsuzawa wanted to find out why quite 　　3　　 farmers in northern Japan appeared to be losing their ability to 　　4　　 and reason(推理)at a rather early age, and how the speed of getting old could be 　　5　　 down．

　　With a team of researchers at Tokyo National University, he set about 　　6　　 brain volumes(容量)of a thousand people of different ages with different jobs．

　　Computer technology helped the researchers to get most 　　7　　 measures of the volume of the front and side parts of the brain, which 　　8　　 something to do with intellect(智力)and feelings, and 　　9　　 the human character．As we all know, the back part of the brain, which 　　10　　 tasks like eating and breathing, does not contract(萎縮)with ages．

　　Contraction of front and side parts was 　　11　　 in some people in their thirties, 　　12　　 it was still not found in some sixty or seventy-year-olds．

　　Matsuzawa concluded from his tests that there is a simple way to 　　13　　 the contraction 　　14　　 the head．

　　The findings show that contraction of the brain begins 　　15　　 in people in the 　　16　　 than in towns．Those with 　　17　　 possibility are lawyers, 　　18　　 by university professors and doctors．　　19　　 workers doing the same work 　　20　　 in government offices are as possible to have contracting brains as the farm workers．

解析：

(17)

least最不，即“最不可能(萎縮)的那些人是律師”。

(18)

followed by…“被……跟著”，即接著是教授和醫(yī)生。


提示：

(1)

根據(jù)題意“日本的醫(yī)生說(人的)大腦的大部分沒有得到足夠的鍛煉”。exercise作不可數(shù)名詞意為“鍛煉”。

(2)

結(jié)果，我們(的大腦)不久就沒有必要地變老了。

(3)

這位教授想弄明白為什么日本北部健康的農(nóng)民在很早的年齡就失去了思考和推理能力。

(4)

think and reason指“思考和推理”的能力。

(5)

slow down“變慢”，指如何使變老的速度變慢。

(6)

measure作動詞意為“測量，測試”。

(7)

計(jì)算機(jī)技術(shù)幫助研究者獲得了最精確的測量。

(8)

have something to do with…“與……有關(guān)系”。

(9)

decide the human character“決定人的個性”。

(10)

句意“正如我們所知，大腦的后部承擔(dān)像吃、呼吸之類的任務(wù)，不會隨著年齡而萎縮”。

(11)

句意“(大腦)的前部和側(cè)面部分的萎縮在某些人三十歲時就可以看得見”。

(12)

這里顯然是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。

(14)

prevent the contraction using the head意為“防止因使用大腦而導(dǎo)致的萎縮”。

(16)

這個發(fā)現(xiàn)顯示農(nóng)村人比城里人的大腦萎縮得要早些。

(20)

在政府部門日復(fù)一日做相同工作的白領(lǐng)可能與農(nóng)民一樣大腦萎縮。

In the doorway of my home, I looked closely at my 23-year-old son, Daniel. In a few hours he would be flying to France to   36   a different life. It was a transitional(過渡的) time in Daniel’s life. I wanted to   37   him some words of significance. But nothing came from my lips, and this was not the   38   time I had let such moments pass.

When Daniel was five, I took him to the bus stop on his first day of kindergarten. He asked, “What is it going to be like, Dad? Can I do it?” Then he walked     39     the steps of the bus and disappeared inside. The bus drove away and I said nothing. A decade later, a similar   40   played itself out. I drove him to college.

Why is it so   50   to tell a son something from the heart?

My mouth turned dry, and I knew I would be able to get out only a few words clearly. “Daniel,” I said, “If I could have picked, I would have picked you.” That’s all I could say. He hugged me. For a moment, the world   51   , and there were just Daniel and me. He was saying something, but tears misted my eyes, and I couldn’t understand what he was saying.
