Researchers at Baylr University were curius abut whether there was a way t imprve student perfrmance . In particular, they wndered whether a technique called “targeted memry reactivatin（激活，重启）” (TMR) culd be useful fr studying. In TMR, certain signals reactivate memries frmed during the day while a persn is asleep. The researchers fcused n music.
A few university students tk part in the experiment. They were asked t take a class n micrecnmics(微观经济学), which they wuld be tested n the fllwing day. During the lessn, all participants listened t three pieces f classical music. Then they spent the night in the sleep lab and while they were fast asleep, sunds were played in the backgrund. Fr half f the participants, the sund was white nise, but the ther half were played the three pieces they had listened t while studying. The next day they tk the test and the test scres shwed that the students wh had been expsed t the “study music” while sleeping perfrmed better n the test.
There were a few reasns the research grup selected three classical music pieces as study music. Such music is much less distracting than music with lyrics (歌词). And the researchers als wanted t make sure that the music they played had bvius meldies (旋律), s that the brain culd mre easily frm cnnectins between the music and the study material. The three pieces they chse fit the bill perfectly.
Unfrtunately, music culd imprve test scres the next day, but after a few mnths the music listeners were back t the same level as the students wh slept with white nise in the backgrund. Besides, the effect seemed t be mre nticeable fr female students than it was fr men. Either way, listening t music at night is a study trick that culd just make the difference between a passing r failing test fr sme peple.

B. They listened t study music while taking the test.
C. They put n the music f their chice while sleeping.
D. They listened t either white nise r study music at night.
10. Why were these pieces f classical music selected as study music?
A. They are related t the study material. B. They have distinct meldies.
C. They have memrable lyrics. D. They are familiar t students.
11. What can we infer frm the last paragraph?

The prductin and distributin（分布，配送）f fd accunts fr a third f the wrld's ttal greenhuse gas emissins (排放) apprximately. But as a cnsumer（消费者）, it's difficult t measure the climate influence f what yu eat.

Sme factrs are well knwn — fr instance, animal prducts are mre resurce-cncentrated than plant-based fd, and als imprting prducts increases their carbn ftprint — but the app als helps identify ther imprtant differences between items, such as seasnality r whether refrigeratin (fridge) was required. It als ffers tips n hw t reduce shpping emissins. The app has been dwnladed mre than 1,000 times since its launch.
Apart frm the app, Evcc is develping a digital tl t sell t e-cmmerce（电商） and delivery platfrms that will track the climate impact f a prduct's jurney thrugh the supply chain. The aim is t help prvide climate impact infrmatin directly fr cnsumers, while als giving Evcc prduct data t imprve its app.

C. A great challenge. D. An fficial standard.
13. What might Evcc suggest users buy?
A. Lcal seasnal fruits. B. Lcal refrigerated meat.
C. Imprted cld chain meat. D. Imprted seasnal vegetables.
14. What will Evcc's digital tl be used fr?
A. Finding ways t reduce the carbn ftprint.
B. Prmting the fd industry n e-cmmerce platfrms.
C. Mnitring prducts' climate impact during transprtatin.
D. Helping retailers access up-t-date infrmatin abut cnsumers.
15. What can be the best title fr the text?
