As the lyrics t Taylr Swift’s hit sng “Bad Bld” g: “Cause, baby, nw we gt bad bld. Yu knw it used t be mad lve.” It’s a sng abut falling ut f friendship, but t 14-year-ld Hallie Barnard, wh was brn with a rare bld disrder, the sng hlds a much deeper meaning.
At just 15 mnths ld, Barnard was diagnsed (诊断) with Diamn Blackfin Anemia, r DBA, and she spent mst f her life in and ut f the hspital. The Swiftie said she relied n the singer t bring her jy.
The nly way t survive DBA is with a bne marrw transplant (骨髓移植) and Barnard was desperate fr ne. But she knew thusands f ther patients are, t. S, a few years ag, she decided t d smething abut it, creating her wn fundatin: Hallie’s Heres. “It started selfishly as just trying t save my life, but then we realized there were s many ther children ut there that needed a bne marrw transplant,” she said. “S, s far we’ve tested 8,000 peple and fund ver 300 matches.”
After a 9-year wait, Barnard gt her wn match — thrugh her wn fundatin. But mre bstacles std between her and nrmal life as a kid. The bld disrder led t a cancer diagnsis: stesarcma. She received surgery t cut the cancer ut f her leg at MD Andersn in Hustn.
The recvery was difficult, but Hallie said she stayed hpeful. “My survival instinct (本能) just kicked in. I was trying t d anything that I culd t survive. S, f curse, it was scary but in my mind, I was just thinking that I wanted t be at my sister’s future weddings. I wanted t play games and run again,” she said.
Her survival instinct — cmbined with Taylr Swift-helped her thrugh her peratin, where dctrs cut her cancer ut, and reattached her ft and ankle t her upper leg t wrk as a knee.

Answers may nly feel like they’re n the tip f yur tngue. Smetimes yu knw there’s just the right wrd fr smething, but yur brain can’t find it. That depressing feeling is called the tip-f-the-tngue (TOT) state — and fr decades psychlgists assumed it was caused by a partial recllectin f the answer. But new research suggests this experience may be largely an illusin (错觉). Being sure yu knw smething desn’t mean yu actually d.
In a series f experiments, cllege students attempted t answer 80 general knwledge questins with ne-wrd answers. If they didn’t prvide a crrect answer, they were asked if they felt like the answer was n the tip f their tngue and t prvide partial infrmatin such as its first letter, its number f syllables (音节), r what it sunded like. The team fund that peple in a TOT state were mre likely t vlunteer partial infrmatin — ding s five times as ften in ne experiment.
But that infrmatin tended t be wrng. Guesses at sunds and syllable cunts were n mre likely t be right in a TOT state than therwise. Averaged acrss several experiments, first-letter guesses were nly slightly mre likely t match the crrect answer (rughly 11 versus 8 percent). Yet participants said they thught their guess was crrect 58 percent f the time while in TOT states versus 7 percent therwise.
Previus research has shwn that TOT states are nt cmpletely illusry — peple better recgnize crrect multiple-chice answers fllwing such states (55 versus 42 percent) — but this wrk indicates that we can’t fully trust them. The evidence suggests that instead f partial recllectin leading t a TOT state, a reverse (相反的) prcess may be taking place: Smething causes the feeling, which then mtivates peple t search their memries.
“One pssibility is that peple detect familiarity with the questin itself,” says the study’s senir authr Anne Cleary, a psychlgist at Clrad State University. “It may be signaling: ‘smething relevant is here in memry — let’s d a search.’”
8. What des the new study find abut TOT feeling?
A. It may be an illusin.
B. It is caused by a partial memry.
C. It is a feeling f failure in giving answers.
D. It is a state f remembering anything with difficulty.
9. What did the cllege students d in the experiments?
A. They answered 80 multiple-chice questins.
B. They prvided partial infrmatin n 80 questins.
C. They answered 80 questins with ne-wrd answers.
D. They guessed the answers accrding t the first letter.
10. What is the mechanism behind the TOT experience accrding t Anne Cleary?
A. TOT experience is cmpletely illusry.
B. Peple recall partial answers and feel frustrated.
C. Peple’s brn ability helps them t guess the answers.
D. Peple discver smething familiar and search their memries.
11. In which sectin f a newspaper can we prbably find the text?
A. Entertainment.B. Science.C. Literature.D. Lifestyle.

An 11-minute quick walk every day culd prevent ne in ten premature deaths wrldwide, accrding t the largest ever study f its kind. Glbally, ne in ten early deaths culd be avided if everyne met just half the NHS target fr mderate (适度的)-intensity physical activity, the pled data analysis suggests. The results were published in the British Jurnal f Sprts Medicine.
Mderate-intensity physical activity is defined as activity that raises the heart rate and makes peple breathe faster, but still leaves them able t speak. “If yu are smene wh finds the idea f 150 minutes f mderate-intensity physical activity a week a bit daunting, then ur findings shuld be gd news,” said Dr. Sren Brage, f Cambridge’s Medical Research Cuncil epidemilgy unit.
Researchers lked at 196 peer-reviewed articles, cvering mre than 30 millin participants frm 94 large study teams. They then examined the link between levels f physical activity and the risk f heart disease, cancer and early death.
At least 75 minutes a week f mderate-intensity activity lwered the risk f early death by 23%. It was als enugh t reduce the risk f cardivascular disease by 17% and cancer by 7%. “We knw that physical activity, such as walking r cycling, is gd fr yu, especially if yu feel it raises yur heart rate,” said Prf. James Wdcck, als f Cambridge University. “But what we’ve fund is there are substantial benefits t heart health and reducing yur risk f cancer even if yu can nly manage 10 minutes every day.”
The researchers calculated that if everyne in the studies had dne the equal f at least 150 minutes a week f mderate activity, abut ne in six early deaths wuld have been prevented. But even if everyne had managed at least 75 minutes a week, abut ne in ten early deaths wuld have been prevented, the research fund.
12. What is the main finding f the study mentined in the text?
A. Early deaths cannt be prevented thrugh physical activity.
B. Everyne needs t exercise fr at least 150 minutes weekly.
C. 11 minutes’ daily quick walking culd stp 10% f early deaths.
D. Walking is the best exercise fr preventing premature deaths.
13. What des the underlined wrd “daunting” in paragraph 2 prbably mean?
A. Exciting.B. Discuraging.C. Cnfusing.D. Addictive.
14. Hw did the researchers d their study?
A They examined previus similar articles.
B. They cperated with 94 large study teams.
C. They tracked dwn different peple’s ways f exercise.
D. They asked abut 30 millin participants t answer questins.
15. What is the message f the study fr peple wh can’t manage 150 minutes f physical activity a week?
A. They shuld give up n physical activity altgether.
B. 75 minutes’ weekly activity is nt enugh t keep fit.
C. They shuld aim fr high-intensity wrkuts fr health.
D. Ten minutes’ daily activity can prevent heart disease and cancer.
