Yu'll bst yur brainpwer if yu brave the unknwn, says ur memry expert, Jnathan Hancck.
There's a lt t cpe with when yu g ff t university, and the academic wrk is just the start. There are new friends t meet, new pprtunities t chse between, new respnsibilities t accept…and, fr mst students, a cmpletely new city t explre.
We recently drve ur daughter Evie 150 miles t start life as a fresher. It was a struggle t find the car park, let alne navigate the maze f crridrs that led t her rm. Befre we left that evening, we'd taken her t the lcal supermarket, and we knew that she had flatmates and phne apps t get her rientated. But the scale f the challenge ahead was clear—t find her way in an unfamiliar wrld.
The gd news fr Evie and learners everywhere is that explring new habitats is hugely beneficial t memry. In a recent study, vlunteers walked arund a simulated frest envirnment. Then sme f them tk the same walk again, while thers explred a different frest. And that secnd grup perfrmed significantly better in memry tests straight after. Accrding t the researchers, that was because navigating the new envirnment stimulated their dpamine (多巴胺) systems-setting up their brains fr learning.
S leaving hme t study fr a degree makes perfect sense. What's mre, yung minds seem t gain mst frm being in strange surrundings. But we may all be able t gain sme f the benefits, even if it's just by stimulating ur senses and challenging ur thinking skills. Here are three things t try:
(1) G smewhere new t tackle an upcming learning task——like memrizing a speech in the library r revising fr an exam n a park bench——and take an unfamiliar rute t get there.
(2) Play vide games that get yu mving thrugh new landscapes. Then see whether it imprves yur success with ther learning tasks, like practising a dance r mastering phrases fr a freign trip.
(3) Get lst in yur imaginatin! T warm yurself up fr learning, picture a city yu knw well, but imagine yu're stranded in a part f it that yu've never visited. Then try t fancy exactly hw yu'll get ut.
28. What happened when they sent their daughter t her schl accrding t Paragraph 3?
A. They fund a park fr all their effrts.B. They were new t the surrundings.
C. They gt lst in the maze f crridrs.D. They had n phne apps t rely n.
29. Accrding t the passage, which is nt a gd way t bst yur brain pwer?
A. Taking an unfamiliar rute t g hme.
B. Playing sme vide games that help yu explre new surrundings.
C. Getting addicted t playing vide games befre revising fr the exam.
D. Imagining yurself getting ut f a new city befre memrizing a speech.
30. Why did the secnd grup in the study perfrm better in memry tests?
A. Because their dpamine systems were activated.
B. Because they entered the same envirnment twice.
C. Because they had flatmates and phne apps t help them.
D. Because they walked arund a simulated frest envirnment.
31. What is the main idea f the article?
A. The need fr finding parking spaces in unfamiliar cities.
B. The impact f explring a new envirnment n ur minds.
C. The benefits f playing vide games fr imprving learning tasks.
D. The significance f picturing familiar cities fr memry enhancement.
D
Zlgists studied the nervus systems f insects t investigate principles f bilgical brain cmputatin (运算) and pssible effects n machine learning and artificial intelligence. Specifically, they analyzed hw insects learn t assciate sensry infrmatin in their envirnment with a fd reward, and hw they can recall this infrmatin later in rder t slve cmplex tasks such as the search fr fd.
Living rganisms shw remarkable abilities in cping with prblems psed by cmplex and dynamic envirnments. They are able t generalize their experiences in rder t rapidly adapt their behaviur when the envirnment changes. The zlgists investigated hw the nervus system f the fruit fly (果蝇) cntrls its behaviur when searching fr fd.
Using a cmputer mdel, they simulated (模拟) and analyzed the cmputatins in the fruit fly's nervus system in respnse t scents (气味) cming frm the fd surce. They initially trained their mdel f the fly brain in exactly the same way as insects are trained in experiments. They presented a specific scent in the simulatin tgether with a reward and a secnd scent withut a reward.
“The mdel rapidly learns a strng representatin f the rewarded scent after just a few scent presentatins and is then able t find the surce f this scent in a cmplex envirnment,” said cmputer scientist Dr Hannes Rapp, wh created the mdel.
The mdel created is thus capable t generalize frm its memry and t apply what it has learned previusly in a cmpletely new and cmplex envirnment, while learning required nly a very small database f training samples.
The results suggest that the transfrmatin f sensry infrmatin int memries in the brain can inspire future machine learning and artificial intelligence applicatins t slving cmplex tasks.
32. What is the ultimate aim f the research?
A. T investigate principles f bilgical brain cmputatin.
B. T slve prblems in simulated cmplex envirnments.
C. T analyse hw insects search fr fd in cmplex envirnment.
D. T prmte machine learning and AI applicatins.
33. Hw did zlgists mainly carry ut their research?
A. By bserving fruit flies.B. By perfrming lab experiments.
C. By using a cmputer mdel.D. By carrying ut field research.
34. What is mainly discussed abut the study in paragraphs 3-5?
A. Its findings.B. Its prcess.C. Its imprtance.D. Its applicatin.
35. What can we learn frm the result f this study?
A. Artificial intelligence is applied t the study f insect brain.
B. Fd reward is cnnected with infrmatin transfrmatin.
C. Sensry infrmatin can be applied t slving cmplex tasks.
D. Studying living rganisms can make a difference t AI research.
