When hurricanes left a path of destruction in Puerto Rico, Pennsylvania College of Technology student Natascha G. Santaella felt a variety of painful emotions.
“I spent around six days stressing and having a very hard time with me having all the luxuries I currently do and my family not having any,” the Guaynab o, Puerto Rico, resident said. Santaella said that her hometown is without power and water, and people there are scared of what is to come.
To reduce her stress, Santaella, who is studying for an associate degree in baking and pastry arts, immersed(沉浸) her self in what she knows best: baking. “It started out as just
was very expensive for me to do alone, so I spoke with Chef Charles Niedermyer, our instructor of b aking and pastry arts about a sale of baked goods in the college’s Bush Campus Center.”
“Natascha is a bright energetic young lady with a big heart,”Niedermyer said. “I was not surprised to find her in my office, looking for ways to help the people of Pue rto Rico.”
To prepare, Santaella had multiple meetings with Niedermyer, spent hours finalizing recipes, designed signage(标志) and decorations, and got friends to staff the sale table with her. And then there was the baking: Santaella and two friends in the baking and pastry arts major spent six hours baking 90loaves of bread,24 dozen dinner rolls and 30 cheesecakes in a variety of flavors.
During the six-hour sale, Santaella and her friends raised more than $1,000 for United for
PuertoRico, an initiative designed to provide aid and support to those affected in Puerto Rico by the passage of Hurricane Irma and Hurricane Maria.
“I hope to mainly increase awareness of what has happened, and to show people that there are Puerto Rican students at this school,” Santaella said. “I hope that others had the great experience I had with all my teachers and how understanding they were with me.”4．Why did Santaella feel very stressed?
A. Because a big hurricane was approaching.
B. Because she was left without power and water.
C. Because she lost all her belonging s in the hurricane.
D. Because her folks were suffering due to hurricanes.
5．What does the underlined word “dispersed” probably mean in Paragraph 3?
A. Exposed.
B. Connected.
C. Distributed.
D. Devoted
6．What can we learn from the text?
A. Puerto Rico might be stricken by hurricanes frequently.
B. Niedermyer responded to Santaella's ideas coldly.
C. Santaella organized the sale at her college all alone.
D. Pennsylvania College has few students from Puerto Rico.
7．Which can be the best title for the text?
A. Hurricane Causes Hug e Losses to Puerto Rico
B. Student Puts Skills to Use to Help Her Hometown
C. College Student Shows Baking Skills Through Sales
D. Teacher and Students Work Together in Fund Raising
The idea that the standard human body temperature is about 98.6℉(37℃) was first presented by the German physician Carl Reinhold August Wunderlich in 1851. Since then, it’s become so widely accepted that it serves as a touchstone for health—a diagnostic tool used by physicians and parents as a basic indicator if someone is sick or well.
However, it turns out that this well-established fact isn’t, in fact, correct—or, to put it more accurately, human beings have been getting cooler over the years.
Recent studies have shown that temperature records of groups of people have tended to run low compared to the accepted norm (标准), so the Stanford team, led by Julie Parsonnet, MD, professor of medicine and of health research and policy, decided to do a more in-depth study to compare modern measurements with historical records to try to identify body temperature trends and, perhaps, uncover the reason why this cooling is happening.
For their research, the Stanford team looked at three distinct datasets (数据集) from three historical periods. One was military service records, medical records, and pension records from Union Army veterans of the American Civil War that were compiled from 1862 to 1930. The second was from the US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey Ⅰ collected between 1971 and 1975, and the third from adult patients visiting Stanford Health Care from 2007 to 2017.
In all, the team went through 677,423 temperature measurements, making sure that temperatures recorded were accurate rather than the result of poorly designed thermometers (温度计). They did this by looking at the change in temperature inside each group over time to ensure that the curves (曲线) showing a decrease were consistent between the datasets.
At the end of the day, the team found that men born in the 21st century had an average body temperature of 0.59℃ lower than those born in the early 19th century, while modern women showed an average decrease of 0.32℃ compared to those born in the 1890s. Together, this means that human body temperatures have fallen by 0.03℃ per decade.
8．What is Wunderlich’s achievement?
A. He was the inventor of the thermometer.
B. He set up a standard for normal body temperature.
C. He discovered humans’ body temperature trends.
D. He put forward the theory of normal human body temperature.
9．How did the Stanford team get their findings on body temperature?
A. By having interviews.
B. By conducting field research.
C. By analyzing historical records.
D. By doing experiments in the lab.
10．What could affect the accuracy of Parsonnet’s study according to the text?
A. The quality of thermometers.
B. The backgrounds of the subjects.
C. The sorting of the collected datasets.
D. The number of adult patients involved.
11．What can we conclude from the last paragraph?
A. Modern w omen’s body temperatures have risen over the past century.
B. The 19th century saw the greatest increase in men’s body temperatures.
C. The 21st century saw the greatest decrease in men’s body temperatures.
D. Men’s body temperatures have fallen faster than women’s over the years.
A new study shows that when heavy cognitive (认知的) work is lasted for several hours,
it causes potentially poisonous materials to build up in the part of the brain known as the prefrontal cortex (前额叶). This in turn changes your control over decisions, so you shift toward low-cost actions requiring no effort or waiting as cognitive tiredness sets in.
Influential theories suggested that tiredness is a sort of illusion (错觉) cooked up by the brain to make us stop whatever we are doing and turn to a more pleasing activity but new findings show that cognitive work results in a true functional change —accumulation of poisonous materials — so tiredness would indeed be a signal that makes us stop working but for a different aim: to preserve the perfection of brain functioning.
To look for evidence of this, researchers monitored brain chemistry over the course of a workday. They looked at two groups of people: those who needed to think hard and those who had relatively easier cognitive tasks.
They saw signs of tiredness only in the group doing hard work. Those in that group also showed in their choices a shift toward options with rewards at short delay with little effort. Critically, they also had higher levels of poisonous materials in the brain. Together with earlier evidence, the researchers say it supports the concept that poisonous materials accumulation makes further activation of the prefrontal cortex more costly, such that cognitive control is more difficult after a mentally tough workday.
So, is there some way around this limitation of our brain’s ability to think hard? The answer is negative. But there is good evidence that poisonous materials disappear in the brain during rest and sleep. The study result may have other practical uses. For example, the researchers say, monitoring of prefrontal metabolites (前额代谢物) could help to detect severe mental tiredness. Such an ability may help adjust work plans to avoid burnout. They also advise people to avoid making important decisions when they’re tired.
12．What is the purpose of our tiredness according to the new study?
A. To keep our brains in a good condition.
B. To make us stop whatever we are doing.
C. To force us to improve our abilities to work.
D. To change brain chemistry over the workday.
13．What negative influence can tiredness mainly have on us?
A. The loss of our abilities to work.
B. The poisoning of our brain tissue.
C. The attitude to our responsibilities.
D. The difficulty in cognitive control.
14．How did the researchers conduct their study?
A. By summing up the old data.
B. By comparing experiment data.
C. By referring to historical reports.
D. By interviewing many scientists.
15．What do researchers suggest to people who are very tired of work?
A. They get round the brain’s limitations.
B. They shouldn’t work out key decisions.
C. They try to avoid sleeping and resting.
D. They have to leave work for a holiday.
