Regular exercise is imprtant fr teenagers, nt just fr physical fitness but als fr brain develpment. New research has been uncvering the effects f sprts n the teenage brain.
A study published in a leading medical jurnal fllwed a grup f high schl students ver a term. One grup was required t take part in at least three hurs f medium-level t high-level physical activity per week, while the ther grup had their regular PE classes nly, which was less than an hur a week. At the end f the term, the students wh exercised mre shwed clear gains in mental abilities.
They perfrmed better in tasks that required attentin, memry, and prblem-slving skills. The reasns behind this are cnnected t the physical and chemical changes in the brain during exercise. When teenagers exercise, the bld flw t the brain increases. This brings mre xygen and nutrients, which are necessary fr the healthy functining f brain cells. Additinally, exercise stimulates (刺激) the release (释放) f certain chemicals in the brain, such as dpamine and endrphins. Dpamine is linked t mtivatin, fcus, and learning, while endrphins can imprve md and reduce stress.
Mrever, team sprts play a special rle. Fr example, playing basketball r sccer invlves teamwrk, cmmunicatin, and strategic (策略) thinking. In these sprts, teenagers need t quickly judge the situatin n the field, make decisins, and wrk tgether with their teammates. This nt nly sharpens their thinking skills but als helps in develping scial skills. A cach frm a lcal high schl said, “I’ve seen students becme mre cnfident and better at dealing with pressure after jining ur schl’s basketball team. They learn hw t cmmunicate with different peple and wrk twards a cmmn gal, which is beneficial bth n and ff the curt.”
Hwever, many teenagers tday lead inactive lives, spending lng hurs sitting in frnt f screens. This lack f exercise may have negative effects n their brain develpment. Experts are calling fr schls and parents t encurage mre physical activities amng teenagers, t ensure they grw up with bth healthy bdies and sharp minds.
4. What d we knw abut the study?
A. Exercise leads t higher schl grades.
B. PE classes are gd fr physical health.

On Oct.6, three scientists were awarded the 2025 Nbel Prize in Physilgy r Medicine. They discvered hw the bdy stps its wn immune system frm turning against itself, a prcess vital fr preventing autimmune (自身免疫性) diseases.
The immune system perfrms a remarkable balancing act. On a daily basis, it must accurately identify and destry a great many freign invaders like viruses and bacteria, many f which have gradually develped int what lk like ur wn cells. The critical questin was: what system ensures this defense frce des nt harm the bdy it is meant t prtect?
Fr a lng time, the thymus (胸腺), a small rgan in the chest, was cnsidered the central area fr establishing “immune tlerance.” It was thught t remve attacking cells during early develpment. Hwever, this thery culd nt fully explain the bdy’s cntinuus self-cntrl.
The revlutinary change began with the wrk f Japanese scientist Shimn Sakaguchi. Thrugh a series f innvative experiments n newbrn mice in the 1980s and 1990s, he made an unexpected discvery that remving the thymus led t autimmune disrders, suggesting that the rgan was nt just remving harmful cells but was als the surce f specialized prtective cells. After a decade f strict investigatin, Sakaguchi definitively identified a new class f cells in 1995, which he named “T-reggs”.
In the beginning, the scientific cmmunity met this discvery with a lt f dubt, since the existence f these “peacekeeper” cells was a cmpletely new idea. The crucial cnfirmatin came frm the wrk f American scientists Mary Brunkw and Fred Ramsdell. Their research in the late 1990s and early 2000s detailed the precise systems: T-reggs either prduce calming prteins r deliver direct signals t take cntrl f ther attacking immune cells. Furthermre, they identified a specific prtein called FxP3, which acts as a key switch fr T-reg functin, prviding a clear marker fr their study.
The discveries f these three scientists have prved that immunity is nt merely an attacking frce but is under cnstant, active cntrl. This essential knwledge has pened up new rads fr treating autimmune cnditins, imprving rgan transplant capacity, and even develping mre effective cancer treatments, shwcasing the significant impact f understanding the bdy’s internal safeguards.
8. What des “immune tlerance” in paragraph 3 refer t?
A. The prcess f aviding self-attack.B. The functin in prducing immune cells.
C. The ability t destry viruses and bacteria.D. The tendency f lsing cntinuus self-cntrl.
9. What can be inferred frm Sakaguchi’s experiment?
A. The result was immediately accepted.
B. The thymus failed t remve harmful cells.
C. T-reggs were cnfirmed t prduce calming prteins.
D. The thymus had a previusly unknwn prtective functin.
10. What is mainly mentined abut the discvery in the last paragraph?
A. Its remaining challenges.B. Its impact n ur bdy.
C. Its wide applicatins in medicine.D. Its success in curing illnesses.
11. Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the passage?
A. T-reggs: Bdy’s Peacekeepers.B. Thymus: Centre f Creating Cells.
C. Side Effects f the Immune System.D. Fight Against Autimmune Diseases.

On farms all ver the cuntry, even the mst traditinal nes, thught is being given t the pssibilities f AI. Fr the mment, artificial intelligence isn’t making much f an impact n the daily lives f mst British farmers. But the way AI can change agriculture in the near future is very much a reality in universities and research labs. My eyes were pened t the pssibilities n a visit t a lab where cws were being autmatically (自动化) mnitred in an innvative ‘smart’ dairy. AI was learning t recgnize each individual cw and keep a recrd f its behavir. It then analyzed the data t warn f any signs f illness.
Meanwhile, in my hme cunty, wrk is underway t ensure that the upcming generatin f farmers isn’t left behind. In a few weeks’ time, newly arrived students at the Ryal Agricultural University (RAU) will start their curse in Agricultural Technlgy, at the heart f which is AI’s rle in making farming mre effective, prductive and adaptive in a wrld f changing weather patterns. This wuld have sunded like science fictin in the 1950s, but nw, 70 years n, I’m encuraged that tmrrw’s farmers are being armed with the knw-hw t succeed in the new digital age.
Naturally, there are cncerns abut what all this might mean fr the cuntless number f peple wh depend n farming fr their livelihd (生计). Sft fruit and seasnal vegetables are extremely tender and need an army f pickers and packers wh may find themselves replaced at sme pint by the srt f standard precisin-rbts that have been trialed (试用) n a strawberry farm.
In recent years many places have struggled t emply and keep seasnal wrkers, s rather than create unemplyment, AI might just prvide the answer t a wrrying labr gap. It’s wrth saying that this technlgy will need a whle new set f wrkers t prduce the hardware, input new data and then install (安装), maintain, repair and replace systems and kit. S dn’t lse hpe but d cnsider upskilling (技能提升).
Since the Industrial Revlutin, every generatin f farmers has had t deal with the technlgical changes f the day and they have successfully adapted t survive. Wh knws! AI may well turn ut t be just the latest in a lng line f challenges t be accepted by adaptable and spirited farmers. And anything that saves me the wrry f checking the weather frecast day and night during harvest seasn must be a gd thing.
12. What did the authr discver during his visit t the lab?
A. AI has made autmatin a reality in the dairy industry.
B. AI has helped mst British farmers t clsely mnitr cws.
C. AI is being develped t imprve cw health thrugh behavir analysis.
D. AI is primarily being used t change universities and labs acrss Britain.
13. What is the fcus f the curse in Agricultural Technlgy at the RAU?
A. The rle f traditinal methds in increasing crp prductivity.
B. The develpment f AI in agricultural practices in the UK.
C. The ways climate change affects glbal fd security.
D. The impact f AI n imprving farming efficiency and prductivity.
14. What can be inferred abut the intrductin f AI in agriculture frm the third and the furth paragraphs?
A. It will lead t widespread unemplyment.
B. It may help address the labr shrtage issue.
C. It will remve the need fr human labr cmpletely.
D. It desn’t affect the nature f seasnal wrkers.
15. What is the authr’s attitude twards the use f AI in agriculture?
A. Optimistic.B. Distrustful.C. Dubtful.D. Cncerned.
