Think about the last time you felt afraid.Was it a fear of height?Did you oversleep on a weekday and fear you’d get into trouble at the office?In any case,you know what it feels like to feel fear.

But one woman doesn’t.The woman,code-named“UM”,gave her first-ever interview after years of being studied by a team of researchers.The woman is given a code name because the researchers want to protect her from anyone who would take advantage of her inability to feel afraid.

UM can’t tell you what fear is because she’s never experienced it.“I wonder what it’s like to actually be afraid of something,”she said.The formal name for the disease is Urbach-Wieth disease,which is characterized by a hoarse(粗啞的)voice,small bumps around the eyes,and calcium deposits(鈣沉積的)in the brain.

In the case of UM,the disease has transformed the part of her brain that controls the human response to fear.In the interview,UM talks about an event in her life where she was held at knifepoint and gunpoint,“I was walking to the store,and I saw a man on a park bench.He said.‘Come here,please,’so I went over to him.He grabbed me by the shirt,put a knife to my throat and told me he was going to cut me.I told him,‘Go ahead and cut me,’I wasn’t afraid at a11.And for some reason,he let me go.”

Doctors who have been studying UM’s condition for years have been trying different things that could strike fear into her.They finally figured something out—increasing UM’s carbon dioxide levels.Extra carbon dioxide concentration in the blood is known to cause fear and panic in health individuals.Increasing UM’s carbon dioxide levels did manage to give her a fright.

1.The text starts by_______.

A.challenging the reader B.solving daily problems

C.1isting situations D.giving explanations

2.Why is the woman with Urbach-Wieth disease given a code name?

A.To tell her case from other patients.

B.To respect her privacy.

C.To meet the researchers’demands.

D.To ensure her safety.

3.From UM’s case,we can know that Urbach-Wieth disease may________.

A.stop the brain from functioning normally

B.1ead to a decrease in calcium deposits

C.stop the brain from responding quickly

D.1ead to an increase in carbon dioxide

4.What will probably happen to UM?

A.Dying of the Urbach-Wieth disease.

B.Getting the sense of panic.

C.Experiencing another danger.

D.Speaking with a hoarse voice.

Caffeine not only gives us a daily jump start, but new research suggests it also can strengthen long-term memory.

According to the US Food and Drug Administration, nearly 90 percent of people worldwide consume about 200 milligrams of caffeine each day. That' s equivalent to about one strong cup of coffee a day. Writing in " Nature Neuroscience" , Johns Hopkins University researchers say their findings show that caffeine strengthens certain memories for up to 24 hours after being taken in.

" We've always known that caffeine has cognitive-enhancing effects (促智效果) , but its particular effects on strengthening memories and making them resistant to forgetting has never been examined in detail in humans, " said senior author of the paper Michael Yassa. " We re- port for the first time a specific effect of caffeine on reducing forgetting over 24 hours. " Conducting a double-blind trial, the researchers worked with a test group of people who didn't regularly consume caffeinated products. Five minutes after studying a series of images, the test subjects were given either a placebo(無效對照劑) or a 200-milligram caffeine tablet.

To check the caffeine levels of their test subjects, the research team took saliva samples (唾液樣品) from them before they took their tablets and again one, three and 24 hours afterwards.

Both groups of test participants ( those who took the placebo and those who took the caffeine tablet) were tested the following day to see if they could recognize the images they' d seen the previous day.

The test included showing the test subjects another series of images that included some new images , those that were shown the previous day, as well as other images that were similar, but not the same as those they had viewed earlier.

The researchers found that more members of the group who were given the caffeine tablets were able to correctly identify some of the new images as " similar" to previously viewed images rather than incorrectly identifying them as the same.

"We also know that caffeine is associated with health and longevity(長壽) and may have some protective effects from cognitive decline like Alzheimer' s disease (阿爾茨海默癥). " said Yassa.

1.The purpose of the new research is ____________.

A.to examine caffeine ' s memory-strengthening effects in detail

B.to write the paper " Nature Neuroscience"

C.to prove caffeine has cognitive-enhancing effects

D.to survey how much caffeine people consume a day

2. During the research , the researchers did the following things EXCEPT ________.

A.giving the test subjects placebos or caffeine tablets

B.checking the caffeine levels of the test subjects

C.showing the test subjects series of images

D.encouraging the test subjects to drink more coffee

3. How did the test subjects show the caffeine ' s memory-strengthening effects?

A.By taking the caffeine tablets instead of placebos.

B.By recognizing images they ' d seen the previous day.

C.By identifying the new images as the same.

D.By telling the differences between new images.

4.What will the next part of the text possibly talk about?

A.Ways to achieve health and longevity.

B.The harmful effects of cognitive decline.

C.The treatment for Alzheimer' s disease.

D.The effects caffeine has on health.

Here is some must-know information from a handbook on how people behave in doing business in some countries.

In Brazil

Brazilians are warm and friendly. They often stand close when talking and it is common for them to touch the person on the shoulder. People often greet each other (particularly women) with light cheek kisses. Schedules tend to be flexible, with business meetings sometimes starting later than planned. But to be safe, be on time. Meals can last for hours—there’s no such thing as rushing a meal in Brazil.

In Singapore

Singaporeans shake hands when they meet and often also greet each other with a small, polite bow. Arriving late is considered disrespectful. So be on time. Efficiency (效率) is the goal, so meetings are fast-paced. Singaporeans are direct in their discussions, even when the subject is about money. Rank is important and authority is respected. People avoid disagreeing outright with someone with a higher rank.

In the United Arab Emirates

In the UAE, status is important, so the most senior or oldest should be greeted first with their titles. The handshake seems to be longer than elsewhere. So, do not pull away the handshake. People do not avoid entertaining in their homes, but they also hold business meals at restaurants. Touching or passing food or eating with your left hand is to be avoided.

In Switzerland

The Swiss tend to be formal and address each other by last name. They also are respectful of private lives. You should be careful not to ask about personal topics. Punctuality (守時) is important, so arrive at any meeting or event a few minutes early to be safe. The Swiss follow formal table manners. They also keep their hands visible at the table and their elbows(肘部) off the table. It is polite to finish the food on your plate.

1.The passage mainly deals with ________.

A. various types of communication

B. the atmosphere in workplace

C. living conditions and standards

D. customs and social manners

2.Why do Singaporeans avoid arguing with their boss?

A. They regard efficiency as the most important.

B. They dislike face-to-face communication.

C. They are supposed to obey the person of a higher rank.

D. They are used to having a fast-paced and direct talk.

3.In which country do people care about where to put their hands at the dinner table?

A. In Brazil. B. In Singapore.

C. In the United Arab Emirate. D. In Switzerland.
