Wmen in pst-pregnancy怀孕 tend t respnd slwer t the utside wrld than they did befre. In the West, this phenmenn is called “pregnancy brain”. In China, peple describe it as “wmen are slwer and less sharp fr three years after giving birth.” Hwever, studies shwed that they are nt less sharp. Rather, their brains are becming better wired fr parenting at the cst f memry.
In their 2016 research, Elseline Hekzema and her team frm the Netherlands scanned 25 wmen’s brains befre and during pregnancy. The MRI results shwed that there was a decrease in the amunt f expectant mthers’ grey matter in their brains, which is respnsible fr multiple functins, including muscle cntrl, emtins, speech and memry.
The decrease in grey matter isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Hekzema cmpared it with the drp in the grey matter f teenagers during puberty(青春期). Accrding t a previus study, during puberty, teenagers’ hrmnes cause a reductin in unnecessary synapses (突触), the cnnectins between nerve cells. This prcess makes the brain wrk mre efficiently. Likewise, the reductin f grey matter in new mthers’ brains might lead t greater parenting abilities.
The changes in the regin f grey matter affected by pregnancy are knwn t play a rle in scial cgnitin(认知). This change might help a new mther better understand and decde her baby’s facial expressins and needs. Based n the results, scientists believed that the female brain experiences changes t help them better prepare fr mtherhd.
In a recent study led by Jnny Khl frm Lndn’s Francis Crick Institute, experiments n the brains f pregnant mice prvide cncrete evidence that specific hrmnes imprved cnnectins between neurns(神经元) assciated with parenting behavirs. While cnducted n mice, this brain remdeling agrees with previus human studies, suggesting shared mechanisms, Newsweek reprted.
Hwever, this imprvement in parenting-related skills might cme at a cst. A 2010 study shwed pregnant wmen have prer memry skills than nn-pregnant wmen, particularly cncerning spatial（空间的）recgnitin memry. This explains why many pregnant wmen smetimes lse their way n familiar rutes.
And accrding t Hekzema, the changes in wmen’s brains are lng-lasting. S, next time yur mm gets lst in a familiar place, be patient and kind t her. After all, her brain changed t bring yu int the wrld!
28. During pregnancy, what happens t wmen’s brains?
A. They increase in amunt.B. They becme mre cmplex.
C. They generate new neur cells.D. They lse sme grey matter.
29. Hw might the changes in wmen’s brains during pregnancy benefit them?
A. By imprving their wrk efficiency.B. By bsting their muscle cntrl.
C. By strengthening their scial cgnitin.D. By adjusting their emtinal state.
30. What d we knw abut Jnny Khl’s study?
A. It cnflicted with Hekzema’s team’s findings.
B. It cmpared pregnant mice with nn-pregnant nes.
C. It explred the link between hrmne changes and parenting behavirs.
D. It cnfirmed the lng-lasting effects f pregnancy n wmen’s brains.
31. What is ne ptential disadvantage f brain changes in pregnant wmen?
A. Prer cmmunicatin skills.B. A weaker sense f directin.
C. A shrter length f attentin.D. Decreased prblem-slving abilities.

WHY A DOSE OF FEAR IS GOOD FOR YOU
Eleanr Rsevelt nce said: “D ne thing every day that scares yu.” She was nt smething. Science has shwn that feeling fear — in the right dses (量) — has several benefits.
·Feeling fear is fun and exciting. Many peple scare themselves n purpse. 36
When yu step utside yur cmfrt zne, it is fear that makes yu feel alive, which is fun and exciting. The excitement generated can als help reduce depressin by increasing adrenaline (肾上腺素), which in turn increases excitement and glucse (changed int energy). 37 A dse f fear is an “eraser” fr the mind.
· 38 Being afraid f smething can remind yu f an area f yur life that is limiting yu. Fr instance, if yu’re afraid f flying but face the fear and gather up the curage t step n an airplane, yu can travel the wrld. Adding t yur experiences means that yu’ll create a varied life. Yu’ll als have fewer regrets.
·Fear makes yu aware f what’s really imprtant in life. Hw ften have yu said t yurself: “When I have mre time, I’ll spend it with my family, pursue my passin, eat healthier r exercise mre”? Fear makes yu realize that “nw” is the nly time yu have t achieve and fllw thrugh what is mst imprtant. 39
Sme say where fear meets curage is the sweet spt in which muntains get scaled and rivers are run. 40 We shuld all embrace ur fear. Nt the big fears that are life-threatening but the helpful fears that cme in small dses.
A. Fear helps yu succeed.
B. “Later” is never ensured.
C. Fear allws yu t live life t the fullest.
D. They watch scary mvies, ride rller casters r g skydiving.
E. And every time yu cme thrugh a challenge, yu feel empwered.
F. Mst f all, fear can be the birth place f change, creativity and innvatin.
G. Actually, it’s nearly impssible t be thinking f yur wrries when yu are experiencing fear.
