They are fire watchers, also known as our eyes in the sky.What is it like to be a fire watcher? Peter Naumann, a
15、former fire watcher, tells about a typical day. Id get up at 5:30, eat a quick breakfast, and scan the area fbr smoke once every hour.

17、need to act as backcountry dispatchers（调度员）.For example, Naumann once aided in the rescue of an injured horse rider.It may seem surprising that the life of a fire watcher is very much the same all these years. Even much of the technology used in the early days is still used today. For example, the O

ACTeens have a reputation for making some not-so-smart decisions and being easily distracted. Researchers have blame
23、d it on the immaturity of the prefrontal cortex（前额口十皮质）.But scientists now find the answer may be the attraction of rewards. Rewards, even small ones, affect teens more than adults. And teens tend to be distracted by things they once found rewarding, even after the actual payoff is long gone.Psychol
24、ogist Zachary Roper and his team worked with two groups of volunteers: 13-to 16-year olds and 20-to 35-year-old adults. During a training stage, a computer displayed six circles, each a different color. The players had to find the red or green circle and would be provided with a 10-cent or 2-cent re
25、ward. By the end of this training, volunteers had realized the value of each color but they didnt know it. Then came the testing time. Again, groups of six symbols, one diamond and five circles, appeared on a computer screen. The researchers measured how long it took people to find the diamond and r
26、ecorded their answers.When no red or green circles appeared, both adults and teens responded quickly. But when a red or green circle showed up, both groups took a bit longer initially. Adults, though, quickly stopped paying attention to the red or green circles. Teens took longer to respond whenever
27、 a red or green circle appeared. Clearly, the red and green circles were distracting teens even though they brought no reward.“The study demonstrates that the attention of adolescents is especially drawn to rewarding information,“ says Zachary Roper. These data may help explain why teens engage in r
28、isky behaviors.Some behaviors, such as texting or using social media, start the brains reward system. Once the teenage brain has linked a behavior to that reward, it continues to seek it again and again. Thafs why teens are likely to use social media when they should be studying. Or why they respond
29、 to texts while driving. So researchers suggest physically removing distractions whenever possible.7. Why do teens tend to make some not-so-smart decisions?A. The appeal of rewards affects their decision making.B. Their skills to respond wisely have not been well trained.C. Their prefrontal cortexes
30、 have been improperly developed.D. The tendency to keep doing things prevents them thinking clearly.8. What does the underlined word it refer to in paragraph 2?A. The red or green circle.B. The end of the training.C. The value of each color.D. The awareness of the color value.9. What can we learn fr
