13、 Is there a way to quickly remember information just before taking an exam? Walking backwards might be a way to solve this problem. Scientists from the University of Roehampton in the UK said this activity can help people improve their short-term memory.
Researchers asked 114 volunteers to watch a video. After watching the video, volunteers were divided into three groups. One group was told to walk 10 metres forward. The second group walked 10 metres backward. The third group stood in one place. All three groups were then asked 20 questions about what they saw in the video.
The scientists found that the backward- walking group got two more.answers correct on average than the other groups.
This suggests that the relationship between the concepts(概念）of time and space is important considering how our minds form memories. "Time is really expressed via(通过）space,”Aleksandar Aksentijevic, who led the study, told The Daily Mail. When you walk backward, you see things from a different way compared to walking forward. This difference helps people recall things that happened in the past.
And walking backward is not just good for our brains. It is also good for the rest of our body. Compared to walking forward, walking backward is more challenging. This can ameliorate our health, according to New Scientist, Walking backward uses more energy in a short time and burns more calories.
Besides, walking backward is less stressful for our knees. It could.be helpful for people who often have pain in their knees, according to researchers from the Unegon in the US. Walking backward also keeps our spines（脊柱）strong, which can help to reduce pain in the lower back. This might be why many old people like walking backward.
1．In the experiment, the first group was asked to_________.
A．walk 10 metres forward
B．walk 10 metres backward
C．keep on moving around
D．stand in one place
2．The experiment shows that walking backward____________.
A．puts less tress on our knees
B．helps with the rest of our body
C．uses more energy in a short time .
D．improves the short-term memory
3．The underlined word “ameliorate” in the passage means"_______________."
A．harm B．improve C．control D．spread
4．According to New Scientist,why is walking backward helpful?
A．It helps people remember information
B．It helps people burn more calories.
C．It reduces pain in people's knees and backs.
D．It allows people to solve problems in different ways
5．What is the best title for this passage?
A．Let's exercise our brain B．Let's do an experiment
C．Let's walk backward D．Let's do more exercise

16、TOKYO, Japan (AP) – Japan is very serious about robotics (机器人技术). If the droids are going to fit in, they probably need to learn the Japanese custom of serving tea. Fortunately, researchers at the University of Tokyo are exploring just that. In a show this week, a humanoid(有人特点的)with camera eyes made by Kawada Industries Inc. poured tea from a bottle into a cup. Then another robot on wheels delivered the cup of tea in an experimental room that has sensors embedded in the floor and sofa as well as cameras on the ceiling, to simulate(模仿)life with robot technology.
“A human being may be faster, but you’d have to say ‘Thank you,’” said University of Tokyo professor Tomomasa Sato. “That’s the best part about a robot. You don’t have to feel bad about asking it to do things.”
Sato believes Japan, a rapidly aging society where more than a fifth of the population is 65 or older, will lead the world in designing robots to care for the elderly, sick and bedridden(卧床不起的).
Already, monitoring technologies, such as sensors that automatically turn on lights when people enter a room, are becoming widespread in Japan.
The walking, child–size Asimo from Honda Motor Co. greets people at showrooms. NEC Corp. has developed a smaller companion robot–on –wheels called Papero. A seal robot available since 2004 can entertain the elderly and others in need of fuzzy companionship.
Sato says his experimental room is raising awareness about privacy questions that may arise when electronic devices(设备)monitor a person’s movements down to the smallest detail.
On the bright side, the tea – pouring humanoid has been programmed to do the dishes.
1．What is the best title of this passage?
A．“Thank You” Will Never Be Needed in Japan
B．Monitoring Technologies Are Widespread in Japan
C．Robot Is Designed to Care for the Elderly.
D．Robot technologies are widespread in Japanese daily life.
2．The underlined word “embedded” in the first paragraph probably means .
A．fixed B．established C．settled D．rooted
3．According to Professor Sato, .
A．the robot serves tea much faster than a human being
B．the robot does anything like human beings
C．tea – serving robot helps to form laziness of the aging society
D．tea – serving robot doesn’t need any reward for the service
4．Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A．A robot can imitate people to complete complicated tasks.
B．A robot has been programmed to clean the dishes.
C．All the problems in the aging society can be solved by robots.
D．The number of aging people is increasing rapidly in Japan.
5．We can infer from the passage that .
A．people are afraid of being monitored by robots.
B．the technology of robots has been highlighted in Japan.
C．robots can completely take the place of human beings.
D．people’s privacy should be strictly protected

17、 First Aid，Learn It by Yourself
When we are injured or suddenly feeling unwell, what we need to do is to treat it in the right way. How can we do that? First aid (急救) is here to help.
First aid is the first steps you can take to care for someone who’s injured. It includes keeping safe, helping someone feel better and staying calm. It also includes getting help, either by telling an adult or calling 120.
Sept 14 is World First Aid Day. It’s time for us to learn about this useful life skill.
Nosebleed

Ask the person to lean (倾斜) forward and pinch (捏) his/her nose for five to six minutes. Do not move the head backward, as the blood can run into their mouth or even lungs.
Choking

Stand behind the choking (因噎住而窒息 ) person, put your arms around their waist and lean him or her forward. Make fists with your hands and thrust (猛烈施压) your fists into their stomach. Do this up to five times. You can also do back blows – firmly slap (拍打) their back with your hand. If the object still doesn’t come out, call 120.
Broken bone

If the bone is broken, keep it still. You can support it with your hands or clothes to stop movement. Then, find an adult or call 120 for further help.
Burn
