A new study suggests a natural method to improve the mental and physical health of young adults。

Researchers say the answer is a diet of more fruit and vegetables, which may make young people calmer，happier and more energetic in their daily life。

Psychology researchers from New Zealand`s University of Otago studied the relationship between day-to—day emotions and food consumption（消费）. The study by Drs。

Conner and her team , is published in the British Journal of Health Psychology。

For the research，a total of 281 young adults completed all Internet—based daily food diary for 21 days. These participants completed a survey giving details of their age，gender，weight and height。

Those with a history of an eating disorder were not included。

On each of the 21 days，participants logged into their diary each evening and wrote how they felt using nine positive and nine negative adjectives。

They were also asked five questions about what they had eaten that day. Specifically，participants were asked to report the number of servings eaten of fruit ,vegetables and several categories of unhealthy foods like biscuits/cookies, potato crisps, and cakes/muffins。

The results showed a strong day—to—day relationship between more
positive mood and higher fruit and vegetable consumption，but not other foods。

To understand which comes first－feeling positive or eating healthier foods －Conner and her team ran other analyses and found that eating fruits and vegetables helped improvements in positive mood the next day，suggesting that healthy foods may improve mood.
“After furthe r analysis we thought that young people would need to consume about seven to eight total serving of fruits and vegetables perday to notice a meaningful positive change。

One serving of fruit or vegetable is about the size that could fit in your palm，or half a cup,” Conner said。

She adds that while this research shows a promising connection between healthy foods and healthy moods, further research is necessay.

NOT all memories are sweet。

Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences。

Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars.Often they relive experiences in nightmares。

Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill，which will help people forget bad memories.The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience。

They hope it might reduce，or possibly wipe out，the effect of painful memories.
In November，experts tested a drug on people in the US and France.The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain，So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced,not that the memories are wiped out。

They are not sure to what degree people's memories are affected。

The research has caused a great deal of argument。

Some think it is a bad
idea,while others support it。

Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers’troubling memories after war。

They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories.“Some memories can ruin people's lives.They come back to you when you don't want to have them in a daydream or nightmare。

They usually come with very painful emotions，”said Roger Pitman，a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School。

“This could relieve a lot of that suffering。

”But those who are against the research say that maybe the pills can change people’s memories and changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity。

They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past.
“All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were terrible at the time but make us who we are。

I’m not sure we want to wipe those memories out，”said Rebecca Dresser，a medical ethicist.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。

Ask someone what they have done to help the environment recently and they will almost certainly mention recycling。

Recycling in the home is very
important of course.However,being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need。

We are dealing with the results of that over—consumption in the greenest way possible,but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place. The total amount of packaging has increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005.It now makes up a third of a typical household’s waste in the UK.In many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard.
Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment。

The UK，for example，is running out of it for burying this unnecessary waste。

If such packaging is burnt，it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect。

Recycling helps,but the process itself uses energy。

The solution is not to produce such items in the first place.Food waste is a serious problem，too.Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need. However,few of them are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue, encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags,for example。

But this is not just about supermarkets。

It is about all of us。

We have learned to associate packaging with quality.We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality。

This is especially true of food。

But it is also applied to a wide range of consumer products，which often have far more packaging than necessary。

There are signs of hope.As more of us recycle，we are beginning to realize
just how much unnecessary materials are collected。

We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture，but we have a mountain to climb.
71.What does the underlined phrase“that over—consumption”refer to？
ing too much packaging.
B。

Recycling too many wastes。

C。

Making more products than necessary。

D。

Having more material than is needed。

72.The author uses figures in Paragraph 2 to show 。

A.the tendency of cutting household waste
B.the increase of packaging recycling
C。

the rapid growth of supermarkets
D.the fact of packaging overuse
73.According to the text,recycling .
A.helps control the greenhouse effect
B。

means burning packaging for energy
C.is the solution to gas shortage
D。

leads to a waste of land
74。

What can be inferred from Paragraph 4？
A.Unpackaged products are of bad quality.
B。

Supermarkets care more about packaging.
C。

It is improper to judge quality by packaging。

D.Other products are better packaged than food.
75。

What can we learn from the last paragraph？
A。

Fighting wastefulness is difficult。

B。

Needless material is mostly recycled。

C.People like collecting recyclable wastes。

D.The author is proud of their consumer culture。

Science can’t explain the power of pets, but many studies have shown that the company of pets can help lower blood pressure （血压）and raise chances of recovering from a heart attack，reduce loneliness and spread all—round good cheer。

Any owner will tall you how much joy a pet brings. For some，an animal provides more comfort than a husband/wife。

A 2002 study by Karen Allen of the State University of New York measured stress （紧张）levels and blood pressure in people — half of them pet owners –while they performed 5 minutes of mental arithmetic （算术) or held a hand in ice water. Subjects completed the tasks alone，with a husband/wife，a close friend or with a pet. People with pets did

Most quickly to baseline heart rates 。

Than when doing in front of other companions. It seems people feel more released （放松）around
Pets，says Allen，who thinks it may be because pets don’t judge.
A study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have an effect on your eating habits。

Researchers at Northwesterm Memorial Hospital spent a
Year studying 36 fat people and were put on a diet—and-exercise programs；a separate group of
56 fat people without pets were put on a diet program。

On average,people lost about 11 pounds,
Or 5％of their body weight .Their dogs did even better，losing an average of 12 pounds,more then
15％of their body weight 。

Dog owners didn’t lose any more weight than those without dogs but ，say
Researchers，got more exercise overall –mostly with their dogs –and found it worth doing。

（）1. What does the text mainly discuss？
A．What pets bring to their owners
B．How pets help people calm down
C．people’s opinions of keeping pets
D．Pet’s value in medical research
（）2。

____________

（) 3. According to Allen，why did the people do better with pets around when facing stressful tasks？
