New research shows that kids do get new knowledge and learn new skills faster than grown-ups.It all comes down to something in the brain()called GABA, which helps newly learned material stick in the brain.Researchers have found GABA levels increase quickly in the brains of children of primary school age while they are learning new tasks or information.However,GABA levels in the brains of grown-ups, aged 18 to 35,don't change during or after lessons in new tasks and information. "Our results show that children of primary school age can learn more within a given period of time than grown-ups,"said Takeo Watanabe,a professor()at Brown University in the US. Dr.Sebastian Frank,from the University of Regensburg in Germany,said their findings agreed with the common opinion that children outperformed grown-ups in their learning abilities..“GABA plays a key role in making learning efficient(效率高 的)，”added Dr.Frank. The researchers suggested teachers and parents should give children as many chances as possible to develop()new skills,from learning the times table to riding a bike.Professor Watanabe said the findings could also be used to help adults learn more efficiently."For example,a new technology or therapy()could be developed to increase the level of GABA in the brains of grown-ups." 1.Which shows the changes of children's and adults'GABA levels when they learn new things? A B. children adults children adults children adults children adults 2.The underlined word"outperformed"in Paragraph 4 means" A.were the same as B.did better than C.were sure about D.were up to 3.What can we learn from the last paragraph?

B The Chinese Alligator National Nature Reserve in Anhui Province has released(放归)200 Chinese alligators(扬子鳄)kept in captivity into the wild(野生)in 2023,helping to add the number of the wild Chinese alligator in Anhui Province to more than 1,400. The Chinese alligator is only found in China,where the country has listed it as a first-class key protected wild animal.In order to enlarge the wild alligator numbers and change its"critically endangered"situation,a Chinese Alligator Conservation and Reintroduction Project was passed by the National Forestry Bureau in November 2001.It is one of 15 key rescue projects for wild animal sand plants in the country. From2003to201&,14 experimental(实验性的)programs were carried out by Anhui Province,releasing 108 Chinese alligators that were fed by humans into the wild.In 2019,based on a systematic study of those experiments,an even larger release plan started,trying to release 1,500 alligators over a five-year period.From 2019 to 2022,1,300 alligators fed by humans were released. According to recent field surveys(实地调查)，the number of Chinese alligators in the wild is still growing,the areas where they live become larger and larger,and their population structure is better balanced.Most of those released have adapted to the wild environment and reproduced naturally. In 2022,a field survey was carried out before that year's Chinese alligators were released and found 698 Chinese alligators,and 26 nests with 602 eggs hatching 372 baby Chinese alligators.According to the most recent survey in 2023,the number of Chinese alligators in the wild in May was about 1,200.In August,after the Chinese alligators were released,the number was about 1,400. 5.Why was the Chinese alligator rescue project passed?

As a busy modern person with lots of social connections,plans and responsibilities,I just cannot afford to not be in touch with the rest of the world Staying connected to other people is a big part of my life.However,sometimes it can be bothersome(恼人的)， One day I discovered I was terribly tired out.I tried turning notifications ( off.But the fear of missing out on something important made me check the phone more often than before.So,I simply stopped using my phone. Well,to tell the truth,it was not simple at all.For the first couple of days,I had a big fear that all of my friends would soon forget about me.When I had a free moment, I had no idea what to get myself distracted()with,and the worries mixed with boredom kept bothering me. However,after three weeks without a mobile phone,I started noticing changes-changes which I liked,and which drove me to not just continue the experiment,but in fact to pick up some new habits. First of all,I noticed that I became much more focused ()Before,while doing something,I would often find myself wondering what was going on online. After a month of staying away from my mobile phone,I found that the urge ( was already not that strong and that my ability to focus improved.Thanks to being more focused,reading some books instead of surfing has become my new habit during free hours. Finally,in the last period of the experiment,I picked up my old camera and took photos of a lot of things around me.Then,instead of seeing the world only through a screen,I decided to start jogging for one hour a day.I greeted the beautiful people along the jogging path and sensed the change of seasons myself.I could understand the actual beauty of everyday life,and I did not need anyone else to prove the value of this beauty through“likes'”or“sharing?”on WeChat.. Now,as 100 days have passed,I can say that the experiment was worth it.I am planning to keep these new habits to make sure the phone can stay out of my life as much as possible. 1.What made the writer check the phone more often than before? 2.When did the writer start noticing his changes? 3.What habits did the writer develop without his mobile phone? 4.Would you like to follow the writer's example?Why or why not?(Please give two reasons at least.) 六、概要补全。 Listen,the ocean is calling for our help.Can you hear that?Many changes are happening in the ocean,and they all come from human (activities. One serious problem is the growing number of jellyfish )They love warm water.And the number of them is increasing()because the weather is becoming warm.Sometimes they gather in large groups and eat fish,which causes seals ( to have less food.This shows that all things in nature depend on (each other, and what we do has an influence on all living things. Another worrying change is happening to coral reefs(珊瑚礁).Many sea animals need clean and warm water to survive ()But when the water gets too hot or dirty,the coral reefs turn white and die.As a result,the colorful underwater world is becoming pale and lifeless. The ocean is also becoming dirtier than before.People throw too much waste into the water.The waste is often seen as food by sea animals.Among them,turtles ( are especially in danger because they sometimes eat plastic (bags,thinking they're jellyfish-their favorite food.This mistake can kill them. But there's good news-everyone can help!Here are some simple ways to protect the ocean.For example,we can pick up rubbish near the ocean.At the same time, don't throw rubbish into the ocean,especially plastic bottles.What's more,we can use reusable shopping bags instead of plastic ones.Most importantly,never buy the gifts made from sea animals or their homes. Friends,let's work together to save the ocean and ourselves.Only in this way can we look forward to hearing the beautiful sounds of it. 【Message New Reply Forward Delete Print Move to Dear Robert, Recently I read a passage about the environmental protection.It discusses the problems about 1 of the ocean that are caused by human activities and how to save the ocean and ourselves. The passage describes three dangers.First,there are more and more jellyfish because of2_.Second,.the ocean is getting polluted(被污染 )Third,sea animals may3 as their food. Luckily,there are some ways to protect the ocean.We can pick up rubbish! Also,we can use reusable shopping bags.The most important action is not 4 made from anything related to sea animals. In a word,the writer reminds us that it's everyone's duty to do so.That is to say,saving the ocean is not just about protecting fish and coral reefs-it's about a better future for everyone. Yours, Peter
