12、hood memory.The wordscome back to you as clearly as when you sang them all those years ago.Researchers at the University of Edinburgh studied the relationship between music and remembering a foreignlanguage.They found that remembering words in a song was the best way to remember even one of the most
13、 difficultlanguages.Here is what they did.Researchers took 60 adults and randomly divided them into three groups of 20.Then theygave the groups three different types of ulisten-and-repeaf,learning conditions.Researchers had one group simplyspeak the words.They had the second group speak the words to
14、 a rhythm,or beat.And they asked the third group tosing the words.All three groups studied words from the Hungarian language for 15 minutes.Then they took part in a series oflanguage tests to see what they remembered.Why Hungarian,you ask?Researchers said they chose Hungarian because not many people
15、 know the language.Itdoes not share any roots with Germanic or Romance languages,such as Italian or Spanish.After the tests were over,thesingers came out on top.The people who learned these new Hungarian words by singing them showed a higher overallperformance.They did the best in four out of five o
16、f the tests.They also performed two times better than those whosimply learned the words by speaking them.Dr.Katie Overy says singing could lead to new ways to learn a foreign language.The brain likes to rememberthings when they are contained in a catchy or memorable tune.Dr.Ludke said the findings c
17、ould help those who struggle to learn foreign languages.On the University ofEdinburghs website Dr.Ludke writes,This study provides the first experimental evidence that a listen-and-repeatsinging method can support foreign language learning,and opens the door for future research in this area.”1、The“s

22、22.(8 分)If you feel yourself turning into an old grouch(脾气坏的人),dont worry happiness is just around thebend.A survey has found that although happiness dips in those in their 30s and 40s,people start to feel more contentwith life after the age of 50.However an economist found that older people will ne
23、ver again regain the excitement of youth.Rather it is thoughtthat with age,individuals become more praematic about the ups and downs that life brings and accept their fortune.He questioned those in Britain,Switzerland and Germany and applied the findings to peoples life cycle.Mr.Van Landeghem,29,sai
24、d:uA happiness curve does not necessarily imply that a 65-year-old prefers his own lifeto the life of a 25-year-old.w“Both the 25-year-old and 65-year-old might agree that it is nicer to be 25 than to be 65.But te 65-year-old mightnevertheless be more satisfied,as he has learned to be satisfied with
25、 what he has.”It was suggested the mid-life happiness dip is because this is when people have the most responsibilities takingcare of a family,paying a mortgage(抵押贷款)and having a demanding career.The middle-aged dip in happiness wasalso compared to that of losing a close relative or suddenly becomin
26、g unemployed.The study is just one of many put forward as an indicator of what makes for a happy life.Psychologists concluded that having money makes you happier,but only if you have a lot more than your friendsand neighbors.At the same time,youd better have enough tie to enjoy yourself instead of s
27、pending all your time onmaking money.Separate research found that owning the house of your dreams,the car you always longed for and having millionsin the bank doesnt stop that desire to keep up with the Joneses(攀比).And if the Joneses have more than you do,youllbe miserable.It seems envy at being low
28、er in the social pecking order(权势等级)reduces the satisfaction of being welloff.If you just do what you love and you are good at,which society also values much,you may have a higherprobability to be happy.But if your job pays less,how can you stick to it in disregard of responsibilities?Happinessmeans
29、 different things from different points of view,and point of view grows from ones experience and knowledge.Perhaps it comes with you when you dont need to think about adult problems or when you are wise enough tounderstand what satisfaction is.1、The underlined word“pragmatic“in paragraph 2 may mean.

33、mation,meaning they forget things like important appointments or where they left their keys.But it seems thatthese memories are not lost They are still filed away in the brain somewhere;they just cant be easily accessed.Now,researchers at MIT have developed a means of getting back memories in mice s
34、uffering from Alzheimers.The method relies on a technique that uses light to control genetically modified neurons(转基因神经元).Currently it istoo early to be used in human trials as it involves inserting light emitting(发光)equipment into the subjects5 brains,butthe same principles still apply,the research
35、ers said.“The important point is that this is evidence of concept.That is,even if a memory seems to be gone,it is still there.Its a matter of how to get it back,“said senior researcher Susumu Tonegawa.The team took two groups of mice,one genetically engineered to develop Alzheimers and one healthy.T
36、hey thenplaced them into a room and gave them a mild electric shock.All of the mice showed fear when put back in an hour later.When placed in the room a third time several days later,the Alzheimers mice acted normally.They had forgotten theshock.The researchers were then able to bring back the memor
37、y of the shock by activating(激活)the cells in which thememories were stored.Even when the mice were put into an unfamiliar room,they showed fear when the cellsassociated with the shock were activated.Short-term memory seems to be normal,on the order of hours.But for long-term memory,theseearly-Alzhei
38、mer mice seem to be damaged,said lead researcher Dheeraj Roy.Directly activating the cells that webelieve are holding the memory helps them get it back.This suggests that it is indeed an access problem to theinformation,not that theyre unable to learn or store this memory.”1、What can we learn about

42、ationalconstraints influence wage increases.One thing,however,is certain:your chances of getting the raise you feel youdeserve are less if you dont at least ask for it.Men tend to ask for more,and they get more,and this holds true withother resources,not just pay increases.Consider Beths story.I did
43、 not get what I wanted when I did not ask for it.We had cubicle(小隔间offices and window offices.I sat in thecubicles with several male colleagues.One by one they were moved into window offices,while I remained in the cubicles,several males who were hired after me also went to offices.One in particular

45、alityshared by most organizations.If you feel you deserve a good raise in pay,youll probably have to ask for it.Performance is your best bargaining chip(筹码)when you are seeking a raise.You must be able to prove that youdeserve a raise.Timing is also a good bargaining chip.If you can give your boss s
46、omething he or she needs(a new clientor a sizable contract,for example)just before merit pay decisions are being made,you are more likely to get the raiseyou want.Use information as a bargaining chip coo.Find out what you are worth on the open market.What will someone elsepay for your services?Go in
