19、cky numbers and unlucky numbers. The number 13 is often considered unlucky. In some parts of the world, buildings have no 13th floor and streets have no houses with the number 13.

21、August 8. Superstitions about numbers are so widespread that some people-called numerologist-make a living by giving advice about numbers. In 1937, when the Toyoda family of Japan wanted to form a car company, they asked a numerologist if Toyoda would be a good name for the company. The numerologist

22、 said it would not be. He explained that Toyota would be a better name for the company. The family took his advice. As a result, millions of people drive Toyota and not Toyoda .

28、 memory test. Thats the finding of a new study. That memory impairment might be one side effect of the radiation (放射 线) that phones use to keep us connected while were on the go. Nearly 700 Swiss teens took part in a test of figural memory. This type helps us remember abstract symbols and shapes, ex

29、plains Milena Foerster. The teens took memory tests twice, one year apart. Each time, they had one minute to remember 13 pairs of abstract shapes. Then they were shown one item from each pair and asked to match it with one of the five choices. The study volunteers also took a test of verbal memory.

30、Thats the ability to remember words. The two memory tests are part of an intelligence test. The researchers also surveyed the teens on how they use cell phones. And they got call records from phone companies. The researchers used those records to figure out how long the teens were using their phones

31、. This allowed the researchers to work out how big radiation exposure (接触) each person could have got while talking. A phone users exposure to the radiation can differ widely. Some teens talk on their phones more than others. People also hold their phones differently. If the phone is close to the ea

32、r, more radiation may enter the body, Foerster notes. Even the type of network signal that a phone uses can matter. Much of Switzerland was using an older “second-generation” type of cell phone networks, the study reports. Many phone carriers (通讯公司) have moved away from such networks. And more compa

33、nies plan to update their networks within the next few years. The teens scores in the figural memory tests were roughly the same from one year to the next. But those who normally held their phones near the right ears, and who were also exposed to higher levels of radiation, scored a little bit worse

34、 after a year. No group of teens showed big changes on the verbal memory test. Why might one type of memory be linked to cell phone use, but not another? Foerster thinks it could have to do with where different memory centers sit in the brain. The site that deals with the ability to remember shapes

35、is near the right ear. 1.The underlined word “impairment” in Paragraph 1 most probably mean “_”. A.application.loss. damage.improvement. 2.According to Paragraph 2, we can learn that _. A.Researchers paid little attention to the teenshabits of using phones. The teens needed to report the average tim

36、e spent on their phones. The teens took two types of memory tests four times in total. The teensability of remembering words is shown in figural memory test. 3.What can we infer from Paragraph 3? A.How people hold their phones has no effect on their bodies. Phone users can make more money with new n

37、etworks. The cell phone network type has little to do with the cell phone use. Radiation levels are affected by the cell phone network types. 4.What might be the best title for the text? A.Cell phone use and safety warnings . Teens cell phone use linked to memory problems. Dangerous levels of cell p
