Take Sally chicken as an example. The chicken with a yellow body and a flat mouth always looks lovely, which makes it popular on the Internet. Seeing her cute picture cheers people up. But there's another advantage of cute animals.New research has found that looking at pictures of cute animals can also help us concentrate(聚精会神)better.The study comes from researchers at Hiroshima University in Japan. They invited 132 university students to take part in a series of experiments.In one experiment, students played a game in which they had to pick up small objects from a hole without touching the sides. In another experiment, students were asked to find a given number from a list of numbers quickly.In both experiments, they did the given tasks twice – before and after looking at pictures of either kittens (baby cats) and puppies (baby dogs), or adult cats and dogs.Researchers were surprised to find that in both cases students who were shown cute baby animal pictures made fewer mistakes.But, baby animals look both "cuter" and "more pleasant" than adult animals. Some people may ask whether the test difference came from their being "pleasant"?To find the answer, the researchers chose some food pictures which looked pleasant but not cute, and gave them to a third group of students. But viewing the foods did not make the students do any better in the number test.This finding shows that viewing cute pictures makes participants(参与者)behave more deliberately and do tasks with greater care.The "power of cuteness" may be of great use in everyday life.Think about situations in which people need to act carefully: driving, office work and exams."In my first year of high school, I brought small plastic toys to school during tests. I would set them up in a row on my desk, facing me, and then get busy with answering exam questions," Susana Martinez-Conde wrote in Scientific American.7．Why is Sally chicken mentioned at the beginning of the article?A．Because the article is about Sally chicken.B．Because Sally chicken is popular online.C．To explain why Sally chicken is popular.D．To introduce the topic of cute animals' advantage.8．What was the main finding of the study at Hiroshima University?A．Seeing cute animals could cheer people up.B．Seeing cute things could help people concentrate.C．People concentrated better after seeing anything pleasant.D．People did better after seeing pictures of adult cats and dogs.9．The underlined word "deliberately" is closest in meaning to________ .A．happily B．relaxedly C．carefully D．actively10．What do Martinez-Conde's words tell us?A．It's improper to look at toys in an exam.B．Cuteness can be very useful in daily life.C．Toys are popular among high school students.D．All Cute toys can help students get good scores.【答案】7．D8．B9．C10．B【分析】本文讲述了看到可爱的照片，人们会开心起来；看可爱动物的图片还有一个好处，看可爱动物的图片也能帮助人们更好地集中注意力。看可爱的图片会让人们的行为更有目的性，做事更小心谨慎。“可爱的力量”在日常生活中可能很有用。7．细节理解题。根据“Seeing her cute picture cheers people up. But there's another advantage of cute animals.”可知看到她可爱的照片，人们会开心起来。可爱的动物还有一个好处，所以第一段介绍可爱动物的优点。故选D。8．细节理解题。根据“New research has found that looking at pictures of cute animals can also help us concentrate(聚精会神)better.”可知看可爱动物的图片也能帮助我们更好地集中注意力，故选B。9．词义猜测题。happily开心地；relaxedly松弛地；carefully认真地；actively积极地；根据“do tasks with greater care”可知更仔细地完成任务，可推测出该单词是“认真地”，故选C。10．推理判断题。根据“The "power of cuteness" may be of great use in everyday life.”可知可爱的东西在日常生活中可能很有用，故选B。DPeople have many different ways to relax during break time at work or school. Smartphones are probably the number one choice for a quick mental vacation. Although it might seem like a good time, looking at your cellphone may harm your mental power, according to a recent psychological study from Rutgers University in the United States.For the study, more than 400 students were asked to finish a set of 20 word puzzles. Halfway through the task, the students were divided into three groups. Group one was allowed to take a break and use cellphones to buy things online. Group two was asked to have a rest and buy things using a computer. The last group didn’t take any break at all.Interestingly, the group that used their cellphones during the break went back to work feeling the most tired and did not want to continue. They also had the hardest time solving the remaining word puzzles. The cellphone group took 19 percent longer to finish the rest of the task, and solved 22 percent fewer problems than those in the other break conditions combined.Terri Kurtzberg, co-author of the study, explained that they assumed looking at cellphones during a break would be no different from any other break---but instead, the phone may increase levels of distraction that make it difficult to pay attention to work tasks.“Cellphones may have this effect because even just seeing your phone remind you of checking messages, connecting with people and more, in ways that are different from how we use other screens like computers, and laptops,” Kurtzberg told Science Daily.So, during your next break, try putting your smartphone away. Go out for a walk, get to know your classmates or even take a little sleep. You may be surprised by the results!11．The study shows that using cellphones during breaks could___________.A．help people relax during a quick mental vacationB．reduce one's ability to solve problemsC．make people more active at workD．be beneficial both physically and mentally12．Which group felt the most tired when they went back to work after the break?A．Group one. B．Group two.C．Group three D．Not mentioned13．What is the meaning of the underlined word distraction in paragraph 4?A．too much work for some people to do.B．A long way for young people to go.C．something that turn your attention away.D．An unhappy experience for you to share.14．What does the author suggest people do during break time?A．Turn off their cellphones.B．Keep their cellphones out of sight.C．Keep their cellphones face down.D．Replace cellphones with laptops.15．How does the author show people the bad influence of using cellphones during the break?A．By giving suggestions to people at school or work.B．By explaining the words of the professors.C．By telling his own experience.D．By introducing the experiment and showing the result.【答案】11．B12．A13．C14．B15．D【分析】本文主要讲述了通过一个研究表明：看手机可能会损害你的脑力。作者建议在休息时间不要看手机。11．细节理解题。根据第1大段“Although it might seem like a good time, looking at your cellphone may harm your mental power, according to a recent psychological study from Rutgers University in the United States”研究表明：看手机可能会损害你的脑力，即降低你解决问题的能力。可知，故选B。12．细节理解题。根据第3大段“Interestingly, the group that used their cellphones during the break went back to work feeling the most tired and did not want to continue.”休息期间用了手机的那一组回来工作感觉最疲惫。可知，玩手机的那一小组是第1小组。故选A。13．词义猜测题。根据第4大段“but instead, the phone may increase levels of distraction that make it difficult to pay attention to work tasks.”但是相反，手机可能会增加distraction的程度，使得很难注意到工作任务。可知，distraction是注意力分散的意思。too much work for some people to do工作太多了；A long way for young people to go.年轻人有很长的路要走；something that turn your attention away转移你注意力的东西；An unhappy experience for you to share这是你不愉快的经历。故选C。14．细节理解题。根据第6大段“So, during your next break, try putting your smartphone away.”所以下次休息时，试着把手机收起来。可知，作者建议不要看手机。故选B。15．细节理解题。根据第2大段“For the study, more than 400 students were asked to finish a set of 20 word puzzles.”为了这个研究，400多名学生被要求完成一套20个字谜。可知，作者是通过实验介绍和结果说明来验证观点的。故选D。
