Every day he came home from work, he would enjoy watching them, And he used to tell us, “No one should touch my flowers.”One day, my younger sister Clemence, who loved dad very much, wanted to help him. So she cut the carnation from their stems (枝干) one by one and arranged them on the ground. She believed that dad would be very pleased to see them that way.When mom and I realized what my sister had done, we became completely speechless. However, my sister had no idea why no one showed her any appreciation. When dad arrived, he went as usual straight to watch the flowers. Seeing his flowers lying on the ground like dead animals, he was shocked at first. He looked towards the street to see if it was any of the neighbors children who could have done it. Then he looked at mom in silence. Finally mom, who always taught us to tell the truth no matter what, said, No bad neighbors did this great job, only your lovely daughter Clemence.”Dads face changed into a smile and then he said, Do I have better flowers than my lovely daughter?

With the population growth rate (率) at 1.58%, India will have more than 1.53 billion people by the end of 2030.Now more than 50% of Indias population is below the age of 25 and over 65% below the age of 35. About 72.2% of the population live in some 638,000 villages.Some of the reasons for Indias quickly growing population are poverty, illiteracy (无知), decrease in death rates and immigration (移民) from Bangladesh and Nepal.

It makes it possible for you to think, learn, create and feel; to blink(眨眼) and breathe and for your heart to heat this fantastic control center is your brain. It is so amazing that a famous scientist once called it “the most complex(复杂) thing we have yet discovered in our universe”.Can this small grey organ(器官), which weighs less than one and a half kilos, really do so much? Amazingly, your brain contains about 100 billion neurons(神经元) -it would take you over 3 ,000 years to count them all. Believe it or not, the activity in your brain never stops. Your neurons create and send more messages than all the phones in the world. And although one neuron creates only a little electricity, all your neurons together can produce enough electricity to power a light bulb (灯泡).So exactly how fast does your brain work? Well, imagine this: a bee lands on your foot. Neurons in your skin send this information to your brain at a speed of more than 240 kilometers per hour. Your brain then uses other neurons to send the message back to your foot to shake the bee off quickly. These neurons can send this information at more than 320 kilometers per hour. No computer has your brains unbelievable ability to deal with the amount of information coming from your eyes, ears and other sensory organs.But how does your brain allow you to learn things that you will use in the future? The structure (结构) of your brain changes every time you have a new thought, remember or learn something. For example, riding a bike seems impossible at first, but soon you are able to do it. How? As you practice, your brain sends bike riding messages again and again Soon, the actions are learnt and you are able to ride a bike easily from then on.44 .

Which of the statements about the brain is TRUE?AThe speed of the neurons in the brain can be up to 320 kilometers per minute.BThe electricity produced by the neurons can hardly power a light bulb.CWe learn a new skill by sending the messages again and again through the brain.DAfter receiving the information, the brain send the same neurons back to your foot.48 .
