D Some people are very careful about everything they do.However,some people are risk-takers-they usually do things without thinking too much about the results.For example,teens are especially likely to take more risks than others.Why is this? Van Duijvenvoorde,a professor at Leiden University in the Netherlands,uses computer games to find out why some people are more impulsive(容易冲动的)than others.n one game,players are asked to click on a balloon on a computer screen.Every time they click,the balloon gets bigger.The bigger the balloon is at the end of the test,the larger their reward will be.But if the balloon gets too big,it'll blow off and the player will get nothing. Van Duijvenvoorde found that when teens played this game,a part of their brain which is 英语试题（第7页共10页） called the striatum()would become much more active."Actually,this part of the brain controls our emotional response(情s绪反应)to rewards..On the other hand,.another part of the brain,.the prefrontal cortex(前额皮质)，helps us control our decision-一making process.. It turns out that young people have more active striatums and less active prefrontal cortexes which affect their ability to make careful decisions.You might have already guessed that teens would pop more balloons during the game than adults-mainly because they are more willing to take risks and don't take the time to think carefully. "The teen brain is like a car with a very strong engine,"Van Duijvenvoorde said."Its brakes just don't work as well." 61.The experiment studied A.why people are impulsive sometimes B.why teens like playing computer games C.why adults make bad decisions D.why teens are more impulsive than adults 62.During the experiment,teens were more likely to A.click the balloon very carefully B.click the balloon until it blew off C.stop clicking the balloon when it got too big D.stop clicking the balloon while it was small 63.What do we know about risk-takers? A.Thcy take more time to make decisions. B.They have larger prefrontal corte\s. C.They get more excited about rewards. D.The striatum in their brains is less active. 1.The underlined word"brakes"should be in Chinese. A.发动机 B.车轮 C.方向盘 D.刹车 65.The structure of the passage is .(①=Para1) A.①/②/③④⑤B.①/②③④/⑤ C.①/②③/④⑤ D.①②③④⑤ 第二节阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的五个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短 文通顺、连贯，意思完整。（每小题1分，满分5分） We often hear of people who make long journeys to different parts of the world,with some even making it all the way to space.However,the biggest journey one can make is within oneself.
