As you sit at your desk, a strong desire for chocolate overes you. You try to busy yourself to make it go away. But it doesnt. Here is another situation. Perhaps you are not feeling well. The only thing you want to eat is a big bowl of chicken soup, like your mom used to make when you were sick as a child. Food cravings are a strong desire for a specific type of food. And they are normal.Scientists at the website How Stuff Works pare hunger and cravings this way. Hunger is a fairly simple connection between the stomach and the brain. They even call it simply “stomach hunger.” When our stomachs burn up all of the food we have eaten, a hormone (荷尔蒙) sends a message to one part of the brain for more food, which regulates our most basic body functions such as thirst, hunger and sleep. The brain then produces a chemical to start the appetite and you eat. Hunger is a function of survival.A craving is more plex. It activates (使活跃) brain areas related to emotion, memory and reward. These are the same areas of the brain activated during drug-craving studies. Because of this, some scientists call food cravings “mind hunger.” People often crave foods that are high in fat and sugar. Foods that are high in fat or high in sugar produce chemicals in the brain. These chemicals give us feelings of pleasure. In a xx study, researchers at Cambridge University found that “dieting or restricted eating generally increases the possibility of food craving.” So, the more you deny yourself a food that you want, the more you may crave it. However, fasting is a bit different. They found that eating no food at all for a short period of time lessened food cravings. So, the next time you crave something very special, know that your brain may be more to blame than your stomach. 4. The author describes two situations in the first paragraph to _.

Whats the likely result of dieting? A.The decrease of chemicals. B.The increase of food desire.C.The refusal of fat and sugar. D.The disappearance of appetite.7. In which column of a newspaper can you see this passage? A. Education B.Entertainment C. Science D.EconomyCIt is widely acknowledged that it is by no means an easy task to bring up a child well.

Researchers at UCLA want to see how sedentary behavior (sitting for long periods of time) influences the health of the brain, especially regions of the brain that are important to memory formation.UCLA researchers gathered 35 people aged 45 to 75 and asked about their physical activity levels and the average number of hours per day they spent sitting over the previous work. Each person had a high-resolution MRI (热分辨磁共振成像)scan, which provides a detailed look at the medial temporal lobe, or MTL, a brain region involved in the formation of new memories.The researchers found that sedentary behavior is an important predictor of thinning of the MTL and that physical activity, even at high levels, is not enough to pensate the harmful effects of sitting for long periods.“This study does not prove that too much sitting causes thinner brain structures, but instead that more hours spent sitting are associated with thinner regions,” researchers said. In addition, the researchers focused on the hours spent sitting, but did not ask participants if they took breaks during this time.The researchers next hope to follow a group of people for a longer duration to determine if sitting causes the thinning and what role gender (性別), race, and weight might play in brain health related to sitting.“MTL thinning can be an indication of cognitive (认知的) decline in middle-aged and older adults. Reducing sedentary behavior may be a possible target for measures designed to improve brain health in people at risk for Alzheimer(阿尔茨海默) disease,” researchers said.12. What is the study done by UCLA mainly intended to find out?A. What harm sitting too much causes. B. Why sitting too much is like smoking.C. How too much sitting affects brain health. D. Whether too much sitting causes early death13. Participants were scanned by a high-resolution MRI to .A. evaluate their memory loss B. examine their MTL conditionsC. record their physical activity levels D. record the length of time for their sitting14. What do UCLA researchers think of their study?A. It is a great success. B. It is of little practical value.C. It must target the young. D. It still needs to be improved.15. What can be the best title for the text? A. Long Sitting Is Bad for Your Brain B. How to Improve Brain HealthC. Sitting Causes Many Health Problems D. An Easy Way to Prevent Memory Loss第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。Being smart is not only a nice bonus but also a necessity.
