A study from Switzerland’s Université de Genève(UNIGE) looked to answer the question of which came first:

a decrease in physical activity or cognitive (认知的) decline?

“Interrelationships have been 21 between these two factors, particularly in terms of memory but also

regarding the growth and survival of new neurons ( 神经元).” said Boris Cheval, a researcher at UNIGE’S Swiss

Centre for Affective Sciences (CISA) in a press release. “But we have never yet 22 tested which comes first:

Does physical activity prevent a decline in cognitive skills or 23 ? That’s what we wanted to 24 .”

Earlier studies have considered that physical activity 25 cognitive decline. But according to Cheval, recent

studies may 26 that past research has “only told half the story… since those recent studies demonstrate that our

brain is 27 when it comes to engaging in physical activity.”

Researchers at UNIGE tested the two possible 28 by using data from the Survey of Health, Aging and

Retirement in Europe, a socioeconomic database covering more than 25 countries across the continent.

Over the course of 12 years, 105, 206 adults 29 in age from 50 to go were tested every two years on their

cognitive abilities and their physical activity.

Researchers 30 cognitive abilities with a verbal fluency test that saw participants name as many animals as

they could in 60 seconds. They also tested cognitive abilities with a 31 test where they memorized 10 words

before reciting them. Physical activity was measured using a scale from 1 to 4. A 1 indicated participants “never”

32 physical activity while a 4 meant they were physically 33 “more than once a week”.

The study found that the 34 of what past studies concluded was true ― cognitive abilities mostly influence

physical activity, not the other way around.

“This study backs up our theory that the brain has to make a real effort to get out of a sitting lifestyle and that

by 35 cognitive capabilities, physical activity will follow,” Cheval said.

二、阅读理解

At the 4th Street Photo Gallery on the comer of the Bowery, many photos are strung together like clothes on a

laundry line. There are portraits of Muhammad Ali and Jean-Michel Basquiat, plus a series of cityscapes detailedly

captured over 60 years by Alex Harsley, a neglected but talented New York photographer.

The city has been Mr Harsley’s home since 1948, when, aged ten, he moved there from South Carolina. He

took his first photograph ten years later, and became the first black photographer to work for the city’s district

attorney’s office. His vivid pictures freeze moments in New York’s evolution from the 1950s to the present. “It

could start with the smell of something burning.” he says of his method. “And then you see a family sitting on the

steps of a funeral home sadly looking at the firemen going through their routine.”

Some of the scenes in the collection were captured from the window of his old apartment in Harlem; they

include images of black activists, streets submerged in snow and shots of the Crown Heights riots of 1991. A . D.

Coleman, a photography critic, says Mr. Harsley has been able to capture the lives of minority groups by making

himself “invisible”. His aim has been to assemble these fragments (片段) into an extended history of the city.

Mr. Harsley’s gallery is a time capsule. For decades, it is also a hub for the city’s artistic underworld. In the

1970s New York’s photography scene was flourishing, but exclusive. As Mr. Harsley puts it, “a number of great

artists were swept aside” because they lacked connections. Helping talent became part of his mission. In 1971 he

established The Minority Photographers, an organization that helps up-and-coming artists exhibit their work. He

opened his gallery two years later; many photographers have had their first shows there.

36. How does the author describe Alex Harsley in the first paragraph?

A. Undervalued but expert. B. Gifted but exclusive.

C. Unknown but devoted. D. Gifted but awkward.

37. What does the underlined sentence mean?

A. His pictures show freezing weather in New York from the 1950s to the present.

B. His pictures capture the cheerful moments in New York since the 1950s.

C. His pictures record some historic occasions of New York over the past decades.

D. His pictures illustrate the vivid lives of minority groups in New York over the past decades.

38. Why does Mr. Harsley make himself “invisible”?

A. To assemble the minority groups of the city.

B. To highlight the lives of minority groups.

C. To help promising artists attract more public attention.

D. To build connections between the minority groups and himself.

39. How did Mr. Harsley help the other artists?

A. He excluded those who looked down upon the unknown artists.

B. He set an organization displaying their works.

C. He established the connections between up-and-coming artists and famous ones.

D. He reduced the rents of the gallery where their photography works were shown.

“Runners, to your mark, Get set…” Bang! And I was off, along with a bunch of other teenage cross-country

runners from high schools across the county. The day was like any other fair-weather autumn day in Maryland. But

the race that day felt unique from the get-go. For one thing, I liked the course. It was my team’s home course, one I

was used to running during practices. It took runners along an area of land that included open fields, hills and even

winding dirt paths through a small forest. It was a beautiful 5-kilometer course. This particular race was our team’s

invite, and I was proud to be sharing the course with competitors from other schools. It also meant a lot―more than

normal that my parents were there to cheer me on.

With so much to expect that day, I was ready to run! And I didn’t want to be stuck with the pack of other

runners, as is typical at the beginning of most cross-country races. So when the gun sounded, I took off running,

leaving everyone else in the dust.

The first part of our course followed the outside edge of a large open field before disappearing into the forest.
