During the winter break, I fund my dad’s ld CD player in a drawer that I had never seen befre. It reminded me f the three CDs I recently bught frm Mstly Bks, a secnd-hand media stre n Suth Street. I knew I culd put the player t gd use with them.
Hwever, I was a naughty kid wh brke clset drs and shelves, s my dad was ften unwilling t let me brrw his things. I culdn’t decide whether t ask my dad abut using the player. “Can yu help me with yur ld CD player? I want t play sme CDs,” I finally asked him after walking int his hme ffice that day. Despite my wrries, my dad said yes.
Grwing up, I felt that my dad disagreed with nearly everything I did. I was frightened t take his advice because listening t him felt like ging against my wn ideas.
That day I lked at his ffice wall and saw a painting and he tld me he bught it in the 1990s fr a cuple thusand dllars. Imagining him buying the artwrk challenged my idea f him being t frugal (节俭的) and bring (没有情调的) t spend s much mney n art.
This new side f my dad encuraged me t finally take the time t lk fr ur similarities. I discvered hw similar we really are while fixing the CD player with my dad, which helped me see him as smene I culd relate t, instead f smene t avid. Watching my dad prepare his ld CD player fr use was my first step tward understanding him. I bserved several f his characters that I recgnized in myself, like persistence, patience and calmness. Seeing these characters in my dad shwed me hw similar we are, which lwered the defenses (防御) I built against him, allwing ur relatinship t heal (愈合).

Accrding t a recent study, cnsuming three largely cmparable meals each day t meet ur energy demands may be the mst effective methd t prevent cgnitive (认知的) deteriratin. The study finds a link between skipping breakfast and a gradual failure in cgnitive health. The study als reveals that eating mre calries at ne meal than anther is nt linked t a quick failure in cgnitive functin, but it des nt imprve cgnitin as much as eating balanced three meals daily.
With previus study fcusing n hw the quality f the fd we cnsume can affect ur health, there hasn’t been much research n hw ur daily energy intake is distributed and hw it can affect ur cgnitive health ver the lng term, as well as if it might affect ur risk f dementia (痴呆).
A recent study, in which the data frm the 1997 — 2006 China Health and Nutritin Survey were analyzed, examines the pssible impact f varius meal schedules n cgnitive decline in rder t better understand this.
The pll (民意调查) cllected submissins frm 3,342 persns in China during a ten-year perid, and their respnses were included in the statistics. The average age was 62. 2, and peple were at least 55 years ld. The study did nt include thse wh had severe cgnitive deteriratin.
Each participant underwent a dietary evaluatin as well as a phne-based cgnitive exam at the beginning f the study perid. This test evaluated each persn’s ability t recall wrds quickly and slwly, cunt backward, and subtract (减) quickly frm given numbers.
The findings demnstrate that, in cmparisn t either less balanced ways f absrbing ne’s ttal calric intake r less equally distributed ways f ingesting ne’s ttal energy intake, eating three balanced meals each day is related with superir cgnitive functin.
28. What des the underlined wrd “deteriratin” mean in paragraph 1?
A. Increase.
B. Decline.
C. Exchange.
D. Spread.
29. What is the main difference between the recent study and the previus ne?
A. The cntents.
B. The methd.
C. The participants.
D. The prcess.
30. Hw did the researchers d the recent study?
A. By ding experiments.
B. By analyzing previus data.
C. By interviewing senir peple.
D. By examining peple with cgnitive disease.
31. Which f the fllwing may cntribute t best cgnitin?
A. Skipping breakfast every day.
B. Three balanced meals per day.
C. Hunger-determined fd time and amunt.
D. A big lunch with a small breakfast and dinner.

The rad t a Nbel Prize, the mst respected scientific award in the wrld, is grwing ever lnger, with almst half f winners nw waiting mre than 20 years frm making a Nbel-wrthy discvery t receiving the prize.
One analysis shws that the average time between publishing the wrk and receiving ne f the science prizes has nearly dubled in the past 60 years. Acrss the three science prizes chemistry nw has the lngest “Nbel lag”—an average f 30 years ver the past decade—and physilgy r medicine has the shrtest, at 26 years.
Alfred Nbel’s will stated that the prizes shuld be awarded “t thse wh, during the previus year, shall have given the greatest benefit t mankind.” In reality this has nly happened a few times. But in the first half f the twentieth century, it was cmmn fr Nbel prize winners t be in their 30s -and that is unheard f nw, says Sant Frtunat, nw a cmputatinal scial scientist at Indiana University.
There are a number f pssible reasns fr this, says Yian Yin, a cmputatinal scial scientist at Crnell University. It culd be that the verall number f breakthrughs is increasing each year, s awards cannt keep up with the number f peple wh deserve t be recgnized, he says. It is als the case that the imprtance f sme wrks, which Yin describes as “sleeping beauties” are nly realized years r decades later. Besides, the lengthening gap culd be a sign that there has been a decrease in “disruptive” science - imprtant studies r discveries that change the paradigm (范式) f their field. This culd be causing the Nbel cmmittees t fcus mre n the past.
Frtunat pints ut that, if the gap cntinues t grw, utstanding scientists culd miss ut n the award wing t the Nbel Cmmittee’s rule banning psthumus prizes (追授奖项). “It has t stp at sme pint,” he says, adding that a rethink f the psthumus-awarding ban wuld allw mre peple’s wrk t get the recgnitin that it deserves.
32. Why des the writer mentin the numbers in the first tw paragraphs?
A. T explain a rule.B. T present a fact.
C. T clarify a cncept.D. T make a predictin.
33. What can we learn abut the Nbel prize winners frm the paragraph 3?
A. Nne f them are in their 30s nwadays.B. Their names are unheard f by the public.
C. Nne f them receive the prizes several times.D. They must make cntributins the year befre.
34. Why might be a cause f the Nbel lag?
A. The change in standards.B. The requirement f the award.
C. The increase in breakthrughs.D. The traditin f the cmmittees.
35. What des Frtunat suggest in the last paragraph?
A Recnsidering the current rule.B. Establishing a better cmmittee.
C. Stpping the award presentatin.D. Recgnizing mre peple’s wrk.
