Researchers tested 125 college students.They asked them to do a math exam while sitting in a shumped-over position,or sitting up straight.After the test,56%of the students said the exam was casier to do if they werc sitting up straight. Slumping over is a defensive posture.It can bring out negative memories in the body and 2024-11 初三英半 brain.This can'stop you from thinking clearly,Peper said.

In the Tang Dynasty,there was huge progress in the technology of sugar making And 'sugar,the precious product once ony served to the kings and princes,also'went into common people's homes.With the cultural and economic (development of Song and Yuan Dynasties,people became less interested in only tasting sweetness.In the Ming Dynasty,some people added pictures with good luck into the bowl of sugar, and sugar painting appeared. Sugar painting is different from normal painting Sugar painters use syrup (as the material,a spoon as the "paintbrush",and a smooth table as the "paper".To make syrup,they have to make sugar hot before painting Since syrup may become hard if it cools,the painters have to produce the work very quickly. They move the spoon full of syrup up and down,left and right.Soon a sugar painting is done. However,it's a pity that this folk art is dying recently.The sugar painting that used to be rich in shapes has become poorer and poorer because of fewer needs.What's worse,few people seem'to be glad to pass on the art except those aging sugar painters. 第3页共6页 For most people,painting is a kind of art and difficult to understand.However,sugar painting has pulled the art down into people's daily lives.Through it,we may see the spiritual support of the ancient people across centuries..Now,sugar painting has been listed as an intangible cultural heritage(非物质文化遗产)m China.So,the art should be remembered,missed and passed on. 71.What does the underlined word "precious"in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

The idea of taking photos has been around for centuries.However,it wasn't until 1826 that the first photo was made by an inventor who covered a metal plate with light-sensitive chemicals and allowed light onto it through a camera lens.As time went by,photographers used different materials or ways to record an imaga(图像). The first photographers were inventors,scientists and artists.Using early cameras 05 wasn't casy for them,bccause it took long to take photos,and the plates had to be digital camera processed right away so that the image wouldn't be lost. By the 1880s,photographers started to use film instead.The film not only let them 2024-11 CS扫描全能王 】亿人都在用的目墙APP take many photos on one rol but also made cameras take up less space and become lighter and even cheaper than the early ones.As a result,many people bought the film cameras and took up photography as a hobby.
