B Plant Anything A good friend of mine, Miriam, was going away on a long trip during the autumn. I called her the day before she would leave for the

19、 trip to wish her have a good trip. She was completely behind on everything she needed to do. She was a little worried. I bought some wonderful corms to plant for next spring. But now I have no time to deal with them, she said. I always plant many seeds（种子）in March and by June enjoy the sweet smell

20、everywhere. I just cant bear the thought of a plant not getting a chance to grow. Ill plant them for you, I told her. Oh, would you? Miriam was excited. She promised to put them out on the porch （走廊）for me. I arrived several days later and found a paper bag on the porch. After a lot of work, I plant

21、ed all the corms in the perfect place. When Miriam got back a few months later, she and I went out for dinner to celebrate her return. While eating, she said, You know, I still cant believe I forgot to put those corms out on the porch! I looked at her in surprise. What do you mean? Of course, you pu

22、t them out. They were sitting on the porch in a paper bag. No, she said, Theyre still sitting on the desk where I left them. So, what did I plant that morning? I asked. She stopped as if to prepare me for her news. Then she slowly said, That was cat poop（猫屎）. You planted cat poop. Miriam looked at m

23、y face and did the best to keep from laughing. But I was too busy replaying the pictures of me picking these cat poop from a paper bag and planting them. Years have passed since then, and both our gardens and our friendship have continued to grow. I guess, I really will try to plant just about anyth

26、unning shoes could increase the risk of injuries（损伤）to runners. One study involved sixty- eight healthy young women and men who ran at least twenty- four kilometers a week. The runners were watched on a running machine. Sometimes they wore running shoes. Other times they ran barefoot（赤脚）. Researcher

27、s from the University of Virginia and the University of Colorado did the study. They found that running shoes create more stress that could hurt knees, hips and ankle joints than running barefoot. They watched that the effect was even greater than the effect reported earlier for walking in high heel

28、s（高跟鞋）. The study appeared in an official scientific magazine. The other study appeared in the journal Nature. It compared runners in the United States and Kenya. The researchers were from Harvard University, Moi University in Kenya and the University of Glasgow. They divided the runners into three

29、groups. One group had always run shoeless. Another group had always run with shoes. And the third group had changed to shoeless running. Runners who wear shoes usually come down heel first. That puts great force on the back of the foot. But the study found that barefoot runners generally land on the

30、 front or middle of their foot. That way they feel relaxed when landing and avoid hitting their heel hard. Harvards Daniel Lieberman led the study. He says the way most running shoes are designed may explain why those who wear them land on their heels. The heel of the shoe is bigger and heavier than

31、 other parts of the shoe, so it would seem more likely to come down first. Also, the heel generally has thick material under it to soften landings. But the researchers do not suggest that runners immediately start running barefoot. They say it takes some training. And there can be risks, like runnin

32、g when your feet are too cold to feel if you get injured. The study was partly supported by Vibram, which makes a kind of footwear that it says is like running barefoot. The findings have gotten a lot of attention. But the researchers say there are many problems. So they have tried to explain their

33、findings on a Harvard Website. 27. Why do running shoes increase the risk of injuries to runners? A. Runners usually land on the front of the foot first. B. Theyre much bigger and heavier than high heels. C. They have a big effect on the way the runners run. D. Runners always run in small size runni

34、ng shoes. 28. What can we learn from the passage? A. No one will run with running shoes in the future. B. High heels design is better than running shoes. C. Runners wont be injured if they run barefoot. D. Most running shoes are designed improperly. 29. What is the writers main purpose in writing th

35、is passage? A. To explain why people like running with running shoes. B. To show running without shoes is of benefit to runners. C. To encourage all the runners to try to run barefoot now. D. To help people know the feelings of running with shoes. D What makes humans smarter than other animals? Weve

36、 got a bigger brain, of course. But when it comes to brains, is bigger always better? Traditionally, scientists have thought that humans better intelligence（智慧）came mostly from the fact that our brains are three times bigger than those of our nearest living relatives, chimpanzees. People even used t

37、o believe that men are smarter than women because men have a little larger brains. This, however, is not the truth. Scientists at University College London in the UK have found that brain organization, and not brain size, is the key to the advantage of human intelligence, reported Live Science. Thro

38、ugh millions of years of gradual development, our ancestors（祖先）were pushed to get smarter all the time so that they could meet the needs of new chimpanzee environments. However, holding this growing intelligence in increasingly large brains was not the best choice because bigger brains require more

39、energy to power. This is when reorganization may come into play, said Christophe Soligo, a member of the London research team. In the study, scientists looked at the brains of 17 kinds of primates （灵长目动物） , including monkeys, apes and humans. They found that in the process of gradual development, br

40、ains didnt keep growing as a whole. Certain parts of the brain grew more than others as needed, and in this way they could make the best use of their limited brain space. For example, when early humans were trying hard to live, the brain region（区域） which is in charge of using tools and finding food

41、grew in size more than other regions. But in modern times, the prefrontal cortex （前额皮质） the region in charge of social cognition (认知), moral judgments and goal- directed planning grew more than the rest of the brain. Think of the brain as a room. If a big room is poorly organized, it doesnt necessar

42、ily store more things than a smaller one. Paul Manger, a professor, explains this using the example of whales. He told Scientific American: Whales have big brains. But if you look at the actual structure （结构） of the brain, its very simple. Brain size only matters if the rest of the brain is organize

43、d properly. 30. According to the passage, in recent human development, _. A. the prefrontal cortex grew most in the brain B. humans most regions of the brain didnt change C. brain became simple because the brain space is limited D. brain kept growing in size to deal with new environments 31. The wor

44、ds in charge of in Paragraph 6 probably mean _. A. similar to B. responsible for C. in need of D. with help of 32. The writer probably agrees that _. A. the difference between men and women has an effect on intelligence B. the larger brains are usually organized better than the smaller ones C. anima

45、ls whose brains are organized properly can be smarter D. the size of the brain has nothing to do with intelligence 33. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. Is Human Brain the Biggest of All Animals? B. Do Men have bigger Brains than Women? C. Are Human Brains Growing as

46、 a Whole? D. Does a Bigger Brain Make you Smarter? 四、阅读短文, 根据短文内容回答问题。 （共 10 分, 每小题 2 分） Stay Home Studying 17- year- old Liu Yu was a high school student in China.
