With schools close in the UK during the COVID-19 outbreak, most children must now be

homeschooled. Parents have found themselves not only having to balance work and having the

children at home but also having to try and teach them. How can you keep your children focused

while learning?

Nicola Anderson--Head of Customer Support at the UK’s leading online tutoring service

MyTutor, provides new, up-to-date tips to hearten parents at this difficult time and advises how

they can structure their children’s days.

One is to keep to a regular timetable so it still feels like your child is taking part in the school

day. Ms Anderson said: “Children of all ages do well on routine and boundaries; schools provide

this in abundance and it will most children feel secure and happy if they can follow a similar

timetable for their homeschooling.”

Another tip is to create an environment which is favorable to learning. She said:” The

environment should be free from distractions and ideally near to an open window, to provide them

with appropriate levels of fresh air and natural light. Some children find it comfortable and helpful

to have quiet, instrumental music playing in the background to help them to focus, but this isn’t

for everyone.”

Using technology to help with your child’s learning is also advised. Many schools are

offering online classes and resources to help and companies are reducing or even not charging

their fees during this time.

It is also important to keep physical exercise as a part of your routine. Joe Wicks, otherwise

known as The Body Coach, has been keeping kids healthy with daily 10 minute workouts for

children on his Youtube channel. Ms Anderson said:” It can be anything from running around the

garden, walking the dog, a game of football or dancing around your living room!”

C. How to study attentively at home.

D. How to design a proper schedule.

Ultrasound （超声） is used widely in medical imaging, but in recent years scientists have

started developing it for another use: stimulating nerves to treat disease. In two new studies in

mice, researchers focused the sound waves on nerves in the spleen （脾）that communicate with

the immune system, reducing symptoms. If the approach proves safe and effective in people, it

could serve as a treatment for diseases such as arthritis（关节炎）.

In one study, led by scientists at the Feistein Institute and GE Research, mice receiving a few

minutes of ultrasound treatment to the spleen nerve had a diminished symptoms to an injected

（注射）poison. In another study, researchers at the University of Minnesota and their colleagues

reduces symptoms of arthritis in mice by stimulating their spleen nerves for 20 minutes every day

for a week. “Zeroing in on the spleen may provide a more precise approach than focusing on the

vagus nerve （交感神经）, which connects with the immune system via a second nerve that

stimulates the spleen.” says Hubert Lin, lead author of the latter study. “When we’re targeting the

spleen we have less of an effect all over the body.”

“Little is known about how repeated ultrasound affects the spleen or whether it has other

harmful effects,” says neuroscientist Denise Bellinger of Loma Linda University, who was not

involved in either study. An ongoing clinical trial aims to assess the treatment’s safety in humans

with arthritis. A bigger unknown is how ultrasound activates in general. Scientists are now

exploring the use of ultrasound on other parts of the nervous system, including the brain. “We

know how to control nerves with electricity, and we’ve been doing it for more than 100 years,”

neuroscientist Kevin Tracey says, “But the idea of controlling nerve signals with ultrasound is a

brand-new field.”

28. What do scientists expect of the new application of ultrasound?

A. It'll be applied in medical imaging

B. It'll be used to activate nerves to treat disease.

C. It’ll be applied in spleen transplantation.
