2.??? What's the effect of poetry on our brain? Scientists have been investigating the neural connections and brain circuits that can work in the reading of poetry for some time. And, even though the research has only just begun, the results are already fascinating.
??? Poetry has the oldest recorded texts in literature. Although it's impossible to say exactly when it began to be used in the oral tradition, we dare to say that it's accompanied humanity forever. This gives us an idea of the impact that poetic language can have on our emotional and cognitive state. The emotional response to literature in general shares areas of activation with music. However, more areas of the right hemisphere seem to be related to poetry. The researchers measured the goosebumps resulting from the tingling(刺痛的) sensation in reading poetry. This type of sensation has also been proven to result from music. However, the tingling sensations produced by poetry activate different areas of the brain compared to those activated by music.
??? Dr. Eugen Wassiliwizky's team collected data on behavioral responses in people reading or listening to poetry. They proved that poetry is capable of causing emotional responses and rich emotional experiences. In addition, a poem expresses the poet's ideas. From a psychological view, poetry is a game of language that manages to group words in a surprising way. We could compare this with how a chef combines ingredients that seem impossible to combine, producing extraordinary results. Poetry is based on rules of construction. It sets up a rhythm, which then breaks, before finally returning to it. The?play on the meanings of words, sometimes several meanings in just one word, is extremely intellectually inspiring. We can read a poem a thousand times, and still find its new meanings.
??? Generally, our passage through the wonderful world of poetry is cut short by a rather reduced exposure during childhood and the overly analytical approach of this literary genre, which is given in most schools. Although the studies that experts have conducted on poetry get a lot of interesting results, poetry still holds a mystery that science hasn't yet been able to investigate. For example, why a perfect cadence(抑揚頓挫) and rhythm can lift the spirits of people is the new challenge for the research.

3.What might be the problem when we learn poetry at school?
A.We analyze this literary genre too much. B.We make children more exposed to it.
C.We haven't read a poem a thousand times. D.We rely too much on our teachers.
4.What is this text mainly about?
A.Findings about poetry. B.The history of poetry.
C.How to write poetry. D.How to appreciate poetry.
3.Lonely Planet Trips
??? Here are some travel destinations on the website of Lonely Planet. Reading them, you'll make your own decision about the trip in a flash.
??? Bhutan
??? The Kingdom of Bhutan, located on the Silk Road in South Asia, claimed the No. 1 spot partly for its majestic beauty and because it had become the first fully organic nation. The kingdom has lush(繁茂的) subtropical plains in the south and sub-alpine Himalayan mountains in the north.
??? North Macedonia
??? If you want an alternative to Europe's more popular travel spots, North Macedonia could be for you. Its mountains and trails are "blissfully quiet" and the locals are "unfailingly helpful" according to Lonely Planet. Among its destinations is Ohrid, a charming, old town dotted with medieval ruins and churches, lined with cobblestone streets, and overlooking Lake Ohrid.
??? Seychelles
??? Mother Nature was unbelievably generous with the Seychelles, a fabled paradise whose islands lie scattered across the Indian Ocean. Spellbinding beaches are the main attraction, and what beaches! Beyond the beach, diving and snorkeling(徒手潛水) are brilliant in the warm waters amid abundant marine life, while few places on the planet do ocean-side luxury quite like the Seychelles.
??? Costa Rica
??? Costa Rica is beloved for many reasons, from its coffee to its epic surfing. It's also notable for its reliance on green energy sources. In fact, 90%of its energy is created by regenerative sources such as wind and water. It is also one of the world's most biodiverse countries—home to half a million species. Of course, no trip to Costa Rica is complete without a visit to the Sloth Sanctuary.

4.??? When a typical kid hums a tune, it's usually something like "Twinkle, twinkle, little star," not Finnish composer Jean Sibelius's Violin Concerto in D Minor.
??? So when Nygel Witherspoon began to hum the very difficult concerto, his family guessed that he should have music lessons. He was, however, just 3 years old.
??? "He was calm, with an ability to focus," recalled David Holmes, Witherspoon's cello teacher from age 3 to 16.
??? Witherspoon is a familiar name in his hometown. He has inherited his talent from both sides of his family, including his aunt, the late jazz vocalist Shirley Witherspoon.
??? The 17-year-old doesn't see himself as competitive. "I think it's more important for students to have a supportive environment than a competitive one," he said. "It's great to have a support system, where you can be yourself and improve right along with others doing the same thing."
??? Witherspoon's love of music blossomed as he attended viola lessons with older siblings. Their teacher, David France, noticed that the little boy was a sponge.
??? "He'd absorbed everything they did," France said. Witherspoon was given a box violin, but he wanted to play "the big one"—the cello. He loved its size and tone. That's when he was matched with his teacher Holmes.
??? Witherspoon's drive is inspired by the connection music provides. He recalled that he and his siblings performed as a chamber trio at their grandmother's nursing home. The positive reaction from residents gave him motivation. "It's so important, whether it's hip-hop or classical," he said. "Music is the universal language. It connects all of us."
??? His mother runs an in-home day care center where lucky children can hear Witherspoon's concertos as background music.
??? Witherspoon finds the noisy environment helpful in terms of learning to focus and play with distractions. As he practices in the kitchen sometimes children toddle up to listen.
??? Despite years of performing, Witherspoon said he still gets nervous sometimes.
??? "But once I'm on stage, I connect with my instrument and try to tell a story with my music," he said.
1.How was Witherspoon different from other kids when he was 3?

D.To show how studying music helped Witherspoon overcome difficulties.
5.??? After paying £20 for my racing red ukulele at a music shop in the Denmark Street, I happily turned up to the "Ukulele Hootenany" at a club near Liverpool Street. The host came around and tuned it for me. I was about to start playing when the little man approached again and said, "Let me tune that again for you." I hesitated, wanting to reassure him that I'd not touched it since its last tuning, but he took it and returned a few minutes later saying, "I've tuned it, but it won't be worth it—use this one instead." And he handed me a racing red version of a more expensive ukulele that I happily handled clumsily with that night.
??? You can master the basics online and come along expecting to be able to play the most commonly used chords. Just don't expect to fluently flip between them without any mistakes. It is easier said than done.
??? What makes this hobby unique is the fact that it's not seen as a "serious"?instrument, so it attracts those more likely to pick it up for fun. That night's participants were a random collection of around 30 people ranging from 20 to 60, with various shaped and sized ukuleles and various levels of ability.
??? We sat around a table, with two song books in front of us, and the "leader" called out a page number as we flipped through to a well-known Johnny Cash or Queen tune and did our best to keep up, but we failed. Later on we got into argument about the speed of the rhythm.
??? But the part I enjoyed most and that I wasn't expecting was the singalong. Everyone sang, and as no one cared about your singing abilities, people had lots of fun when they were harmonizing and putting on a heavy Southern accent even if it's not a country song. What it resulted in was a hobby with a unique mix and thus one of my favorites; it was cheap, social, and above all great fun.

6.??? Amanda had just come home from school. Exhausted but looking forward to receiving an e-mail from Bridget in New Zealand, she turned on her computer and waited impatiently for it to start up. As she waited, she began thinking about the times she spent with Bridget, her best friend, since elementary school. Just then, an envelope popped up on her screen.
??? Amanda sat up and clicked on the "Inbox" bar, expecting to see her friend's usual e-mail. Amanda was surprised to see the e-mail address belonging to Bridget's brother in bold type at the top of a row of e-mails in her inbox. He seldom wrote to her because he was much older and they had nothing in common. A feeling of dread passed through her but she ignored it.
??? "It was probably nothing," she said as she clicked on the e-mail. What she saw was totally unexpected. It was a short e-mail. He simply said that Bridget had been in a serious car accident and was hospitalized in the intensive care unit (ICU). And he also said he would write again later. Amanda's jaw dropped and her fingers that had been so busy clicking the mouse buttons earlier slid off the computer table.
??? At a loss as to what to do, Amanda hurriedly typed an e-mail in response. She asked Bridget's brother for more information about the accident and Bridget's condition. Amanda's eyes brimmed with tears that streamed down her cheeks. She could not help remembering that Bridget had told her about her plans to return to Singapore to visit her. She wanted to call Bridget's brother immediately but it was only then that she realized she did not have his number.
??? Sitting up, she clicked on the "Inbox" bar to check her incoming message again. However, the sign "No New Message" flashed at the bottom of her screen.

A.A Shocking E-mail B.A Car Accident
C.A Terrible Day D.A True Friend
7.??? Emily Bonfim Camargo, a 10-year-old girl, has cerebral palsy(大腦性癱瘓). Because of her condition, her involuntary movements prevent her from freely holding objects with her hands or standing up. She's never been able to walk, but that doesn't mean she doesn't have the same dreams and hopes as other children. In particular, she's always wanted to ride a bicycle.
??? "That was her dream, and I had to do something to help," her grandfather Clovis Urias dos Santos, a 69-year-old former construction worker said. First he tried to make his granddaughter's dream come true by buying her a tricycle. Unfortunately, she was unable to hold the handlebars to guide the vehicle, and she couldn't keep her balance on the seat. Her grandfather, however, isn't a man who is easily discouraged.
??? In his home workshop, he started to think of how he could make a more stable tricycle for her. He started to take things apart and put the useful pieces back together. "I fixed brakes to the pedals, and I didn't put on handlebars," he told Sempre Familia, the local news media.
??? This vehicle isn't just for fun. It's also practical. Clovis added a basket behind the seat, so that Emily can carry her backpack for school, or some groceries, because she likes to go to the supermarket and bakery with him. Emily's special tricycle is also stylish. "After the tricycle was ready, I painted it pink and purple because Emily chose those colors. She was very happy, and I was even happier," Clovis said.
??? There's no cure for cerebral palsy, although there is medicine to decrease involuntary muscle movements. So what does the future hold for Emily? Only time will tell, but the support of her family will fill her future with hope.

B.A tricycle made of useful pieces.
C.A girl whose future is filled with misfortune.
D.A grandfather created a tricycle for his granddaughter.
8.??? This vacation has been an amazing one, a vacation spent in exploring beautiful regions and islands. I spent an incredible vacation recharging my batteries, and I'm ready for the remaining days of the year! So no, I don't have the post-vacation blues, but it seems like everyone else does.
??? All I see is what people post on social media about how unhappy they are to be coming back to their everyday life. Going back to their "routines" makes them sad.
??? But we need to analyze this a bit more. Sure, who doesn't like vacations? But the whole concept that "Vacations are great." and "Regular life sucks." is so bad! Because if you don't like your regular life, it means that you're spending 70% of your life doing something you don't like, and the remaining time trying to recharge to face that 70% of your life. It's not sustainable.
??? When I went on the trip to Ischia, I met so many food and travel bloggers, but guess what, they are all either at university or working full-time! They found the time to create something they are enthusiastic about! It's never too late to change that routine you so desperately want to get rid of. Sure, it takes a bit of investment initially, but when you come home after doing something you love, I assure you, it won't even feel like you've overworked!
??? Don't get me wrong, swimming in clear waters is better than sitting in an office. But what if you were working toward something bigger? A project? Something creative? Wouldn't you feel more motivated to get back and work on it? The post-vacation blues are normal, but let's not make vacations the only thing we're looking forward to in life! Your everyday life can be amazing too. You just have to take a few steps toward making it so. The first thing to do is to overcome the blues.
1.How does the author feel after his vacation?
A.Energetic. B.Depressed. C.Exhausted. D.Unhappy.
2.How does the author discuss most people's post-vacation life?
A.By questioning. B.By giving examples.
C.By doing an analysis. D.By presenting statistics.
3.What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A.The enthusiasm for life. B.The change of the routine.
C.The necessity of creativity. D.The importance of doing favorites.
4.What will the author most probably tell us next?
A.How to work toward bigger projects. B.How to conquer the post-vacation blues.
C.What we should do to feel motivated. D.Why we should stick to what we love.
9.??? Identical twins(同卵雙胞胎) may not be exact copies at the DNA level after all. Normally, identical twins differ by 5.2 genetic changes. Researchers shared their new findings in Nature Genetics.
??? Identical twins are also called monozygotic twins(單卵雙胞胎). They come from a single egg. That egg replicates and forms an embryo(胚胎). Then, it splits into two groups of cells. Each of these will go on to become a baby.
??? Identical twins have long been thought to have the exact same genes. That's why some scientific studies study these twins. Such studies try to determine whether particular features, diseases or conditions are due to genes or instead reflect environmental influences. Any difference in the health of identical twins was thought to be due to different environmental exposure. The new findings, though, suggest that genetic changes might also explain why identical twins aren't truly identical.
??? Researchers in Iceland studied 381 pairs of identical twins. Then the scientists studied all the genes in each person carefully. Only 38 pairs of twins had all the same genes. Most twin pairs differed somewhat in their DNA. Those differences likely arose long before birth. It could have happened either just before one embryo split to form two or it could have happened shortly after the split. Some of the twins had many genetic differences. Thirty-nine pairs had more than 100 differences in their genes.
??? Genetic changes, or mutations(突變), seen in the newly studied twins suggest that embryos don't split neatly in half when twins form. Some twins may arise when a single cell or a small group of cells splits off from an embryo. How many cells each twin originates from may determine how genetically different they are. More uneven splits of the embryo may lead to a greater number of genetic differences in the twins.
1.What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 1?
A.Make a comparison. B.Propose a definition.
C.Present a conclusion. D.Raise an argument.
2.What may explain the reason why identical twins aren't the same?
A.Some diseases. B.Educational effects.
C.The genetic origins. D.The changes of genes.
3.What does the research in Iceland show?
A.Almost all the twins have no difference in genes.
B.Half of the twins have more than 100 differences in genes.
C.About ten percent of the twins share the same genes.
D.Genetic differences usually occur shortly after the split.
4.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Some Identical Twins Don't Have the Same DNA
B.Many People Have the Exactly Similar Genes
C.Not All the Identical Twins Look the Same
D.Identical Twins Attract Many Researchers
10.??? The benefits of coconut oil have been a big talking point recently, particularly its health-promoting effects. But what is it about this oil that's so good for us?
??? To start with, it's full of saturated fats that can boost our HDL levels. HDL-C, also known as "good cholesterol(膽固醇)", removes "bad cholesterol" from the walls of our blood vessels, thus reducing our risk of strokes and heart disease. Coconut oil's fatty acids also protect our stomachs from parasites(寄生蟲) and harmful bacteria that play havoc with our digestive system. Despite such remarkable benefits, it's important to remember that coconut oil is high in fat, so consume it in moderation. The daily allowance recommended by some doctors is two tablespoons of coconut oil.
??? Just as our skin needs to be kept healthy and moisturized, our lips need maintenance, too. Once again, coconut oil is here to help. Its moisturizing and antibacterial properties make coconut oil a great lip balm(潤唇膏). Here, we show you a simple way to make your own coconut oil-based lip balm at home.
??? You will need: 1.5 tbsp coconut oil; 1.5 tbsp honey; 0.5 tbsp beeswax; a pan; a beaker; a spoon; about 5 empty containers for your lip balm. You could also add a few drops of essential oil for a scented lip balm or a small piece of lipstick for a hint of color.
??? Steps are as follows:
??? (1)Combine all of the ingredients in the beaker. Add water to the pan and put the beaker inside over low heat.
??? (2)Stir the ingredients continuously with the spoon until the mixture is completely melted.
??? (3)Keep stirring the ingredients for another 7—10 minutes so that they are well blended, which will prevent them from separating as they set.
??? (4)Remove the beaker from the pan and pour the mixture into each container.
??? (5)Allow the mixture to cool and harden.
??? The homemade lip balm makes a great gift. Your friends and loved ones will be impressed by your efforts and delighted to receive your personal creation.
1.What does the underlined phrase "play havoc with" probably mean?
A.Operate. B.Damage. C.Protect. D.Restore.
2.What warning does the text give about coconut oil?
A.It can raise the cholesterol level. B.You shouldn't mix it with other oils.
C.It may make your skin become sensitive. D.You should limit its amount in your diet.
3.If you want to use essential oil in your lip balm, when should you add it in?
A.Before the mixture is stirred. B.After the other ingredients are melted.
C.When the ingredients are added to the beaker. D.Before the mixture is poured into the containers.
4.What's the text mainly about?
A.The risks of cooking with coconut oil.
B.The steps to extract coconut oil at home.
C.The reasons why coconut oil is good for health.
