1、The Need to RememberSome people say they have no memory at all: "I just can\'t remember a thing!" But of course we all have a memory. Our memory tells us who we are. Our memory helps U. S. to make use in the present of what we have learnt in the past.In fact we have different types of memory. Fｏｒexample, our visual memory helps us recall facts ａｎｄ　places. Some people have such a strong visual memory that they can remember exactly what they have seen, fｏｒexample, pages of a book, as a complete picture.Our verbal memory helps us remember words ａｎｄ　figures we may have heard but not seen ｏｒwritten: items of a shopping list, a chemical formula, dates, ｏｒa recipe.With our emotional memory, we recall situations ｏｒplaces where we had strong feelings, perhaps of happiness ｏｒunhappiness. We also have special memories fｏｒsmell, taste, touch ａｎｄ　sound, ａｎｄ　fｏｒperforming physical movements.We have two ways of storing any of these memories. Our short-term memory stores items fｏｒup to thirty seconds-enough to remember a telephone number while we dial. Our long-term memory, on the other hand, may store items fｏｒa lifetime. Older people in fact have a much biter long-term memory than short-term. They may forget what they have done only a few hours ago, but have the clearest remembrance of when they were very young.Psychologists tell us that we only remember a few facts about our past, ａｎｄ　that we invent the rest. It is as though we remember only the outline ofa story. We then make up the details. We often do this in the way we want to remember them, usually so that we appear as the heroes of our own past, ｏｒmaybe victims needing sympathy.Long-term memory is more important than short-term memory.【单选题】

2、Musical Training Can Improve Communication Skills American scientists say musical training seems to improve communication skills ａｎｄ　language retardation. They found that developing musical skills involves the same process in the brain as learning how to speak. The scientists believe that could help children with learning disabilities. Nina Kraus is a neurobiologist at Northwestern University in Illinois. She says musical training involves putting together different kinds of information, such as hearing music, looking at musical notes, touching an instrument ａｎｄ　watching other musicians. This process is not much different from learning how to speak. Both involve different senses. She further explains musical training ａｎｄ　learning to speak each make us think about what we are doing. She says speech ａｎｄ　music pass through a structure of the nervous system called the brain stem. The brain stem controls our ability to hear. Until recently, experts have thought the brain stem could not be developed ｏｒchanged. But ProfessｏｒKranss ａｎｄ　her team found that musical training can improve a person\'s brain stem activity. The study involved individuals with different levels of musical ability. They were asked to wear an electrical device that measures brain activity. The individuals wore the electrode while they watched a video of someone speaking ａｎｄ　a person playing a musical instrument --－－the cello. ProfessｏｒKrauss says cellos have sound qualities similar to some of the sounds that are important with speech. The study found that the more years of training people had, the more sensitive they were to the sound ａｎｄ　rhythm of the music. Those who were involved in musical activities were the same people in whom the improvement of sensory events was the strongest. ____ She says using music to improve listening skills could mean they hear sentences ａｎｄ　understａｎｄ　facial expressions better. 【单选题】

5、Smoking Can Increase Depressive Symptoms in TeensWhile some teenagers may puff on cigarettes to "self-medicate" against the blues, scientists at the University of Toronto ａｎｄ　the University of Montreal have found that smoking may actually ____ depressive symptoms in some teens."This observational study is one of the few to examine the perceived emotional benefits of smoking among teens," says lead researcher Michael Chaiton, a research associate at the Ontario Tobacco Research Unit of the University of Toronto." Although cigarettes may appear to have self-medicating effects ｏｒto improve mood, in the long term we found that teens who started to smoke reported higher depressive symptoms. "As part of the study, some 662 high school teenagers completed up to 20 questionnaires about their use of cigarettes to affect mood. Secondary schools were selected to provide a mix of French ａｎｄ　English participants, urban ａｎｄ　rural schools, ａｎｄ　schools located in high, moderate ａｎｄ　low socioeconomic neighborhoods. Participants were divided into three groups: never smokers; smokers who did not use cigarettes to self-medicate, improve mood ｏｒphysical state; smokers who used cigarettes to self-medicate. Depressive symptoms were measured using a scale that asked how felt too fired to do things: had trouble going to sleep ｏｒstaying asleep; felt unhappy, sad, ｏｒdepressed; felt hopeless about the future; felt vexed, antsy ｏｒtense; ａｎｄ　worried too much about things."Smokers who used cigarettes as mood improvers had higher risks of elevated depressive symptoms than teens who had never smoked," says co-researcher Jennifer O\'Loughlin, a professｏｒat the University of Montreal Department of Social ａｎｄ　Preventive Medicine. "Our study found that teen smokers who reported emotional benefits from smoking are at higher risk of developing depressive symptoms."The association between depression ａｎｄ　smoking exists principally among teens that use cigarettes to feel better. "It\'s important to emphasize that depressive symptom scores were higher among teenagers who reported emotional benefits from smoking after they began to smoke," says Dr. Chaiton.【单选题】

A.examine

B.increase

C.decrease

D.diagnose

正确答案:B

答案解析:本文的重点是介绍借抽烟缓解抑郁情绪的青少年到后来他们的depressive symptoms（抑郁症状）反而加重了。第二、第五、第六段都明确提到这一点，所以B (increase)是答案。其他三个选项的词义与上下文的意思搭不上。
