I was shcked.
"Will yu help them?" she asked.
"Yes, " I replied. I culdn't believe it came ut f my muth, but it did.
I bravely walked t my grup and started ur prject. We had different tasks accrding t ur interests. Gradually, I felt myself enjying their cmpany. I fund ut Maur was struggling with English. Behind Juliette's thick glasses were her sparkling eyes. Rachel was s creative that she wanted t be a fashin designer. I realized that they were nt strange;they were just peple that n ne cared enugh fr-except Mrs. Bartlett. Her thughtfulness brught ut the best in the fur f us.

A Jhns Hpkins University researcher, Melville J. Whlgemuth, nticed that the bats he wrked with turned their heads t the side when hunting. "It's a lvely behavir, and I was curius abut the purpse, " he said. "I wanted t knw when bats were ding this and why. It seemed t happen as bats were targeting prey(瞄准猎物), and that turned ut t be the case."
Whigemuth's team fund that a bat's head and ear mvements went with the animal's snar
vcalizatins(声纳发声)t help it hunt. The findings shw hw mvements can strengthen signals used by senses like sight and hearing-nt just in bats, but in dgs and cats, and even in humans.
Bats' use f ech-lcatin(回声定位)t find, lcate and catch prey is well dcumented. But the lead authr Whlgemuth and his team are the first t shw hw the mysterius head and ear mvements influence the hunt.
The researchers used a nvel methd t study the head and ear mvements f the big brwn bat, a cmmn bat species. First, researchers trained the bat t sit n a platfrm while tracking mving prey. After that, the researchers fixed markers t the tp f the bat's head and bth ears. The markers allwed the team t measure the head and ear psitins as the bat tracked the prey mving in varius directins.
They fund the head mvements tk place when the prey changed directin r mved unpredictably. The ear mvements happened as the prey grew clser, which helped the bat hear the eches it used t track and catch the prey. Mst ntably, these head and ear mvements went with the bat's vcalizatins, allwing the animal t lcate where the prey exactly was.
C-authr Cynthia F. Mss said ther similar studies missed the imprtance f head and ear mvements, because labratries usually bserved the subject with a fixed head psitin. That's nt hw animals perate in the real wrld, when their heads are free t mve.
Mss cmpared the bat's head and ear mvements t thse f ther species that use active sensing t prcess imprtant infrmatin. "By studying these mvements," she said," we as humans can get insight int hw mvements help animals sense their envirnment."
27. The research f Whlgemuth and his team is the first t prve that ___________ .
A. animals send signals t help them hunt mre quickly
B. head and ear mvements help bats lcate the prey
C. humans learn t hunt by cpying animals' mvements
D. snar vcalizatins can wrk fr bth animals and humans
28. The furth paragraph is mainly abut ___________ .
A. hw the bat uses head and ear mvements t track mving prey
B. hw the bat is trained t track the prey by mving its head and ears
C. hw the researchers studied the head and ear mvements f the bat
D. hw the researchers measured the mving bat's head and ear psitins
29. Which is the best title fr the passage?
A. Bats: An Expert f Exact Lcatin
B. Bats: A Mdel f Fast Mvements
C. Bats: A Master f Night Hunting
D. Bats: An Example f Mysterius Animals

Our brains believe infrmatin autmatically(自动地)-even if it's false-because we can learn efficiently this way. "We're learning false infrmatin nt because we're pr learners r nt wrking hard," says David Rapp, a psychlgy and educatin prfessr at Nrthwestern University. "In many cases, it's a useful skill fr us t accept what peple tell us, because ften what peple tell us is true."
When we hear new infrmatin, thse fresh facts dn't cver what we knew befre. We'll draw n ld r new infrmatin when the situatin cmes up. ___________ . Shrt-term memries are easier fr ur brains t access than facts we heard lnger ag, because they're fresher in ur minds-even if they're wrng. Since we have t think back further t remember ld infrmatin, we will ften ignre it in favur f new inaccurate(不准确的)infrmatin. New infrmatin is what we're currently thinking abut r has been recently presented t us, while the ld ne isn't as readily available.
We als buy int the facts that seem mre reasnable. Often, this means they fit better with what we want t believe, which can explain why peple qute different facts in plitical debates. Bth candidates said smething that was bjectively true r nt, but peple wuld g with what they hpe t be true.
Things get even trickier when truth and falsehd cexist in the infrmatin. Fr instance, ur brains aren't sure whether t believe the descriptins f Lndn in Harry Ptter. "Dn't lk fr that train statin t Hgwarts, but there might be streets mentined that are real," says Dr. Rapp. In fact,ur brains can keep track f what's true r false by mentally tagging(标记)facts as either true r false,but srting all that infrmatin takes time. In many cases,we are unlikely t think critically t get infrmatin, especially when we are reading fr pleasure.
Hwever, it's wrth putting in the extra effrt t have a secnd thught abut the infrmatin that seems dubtful. "With the ease that we can lk things up n the Internet," says Dr. Rapp, "there's n reasn nt t." "Seek ut reliable surces," he adds.
30. The missing sentence in Paragraph 2 might be "___________ ".
A. We always find the infrmatin updating fast nwadays
B. Frm time t time, we fail t remember unimprtant things
C. Oftentimes, we use the infrmatin we heard mst recently
D. We hardly see ld infrmatin that is different frm the truth
31. The underlined phrase "buy int" in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by ___________ .
A. care abut B. learn frm C. cme up with D. believe in
32. Why des the writer mentin Harry Ptter in Paragraph 4?
A. T warn readers f the negative influence f false infrmatin.
B. T prve peple are unable t think critically when reading.
C. T shw the infrmatin we get can be a mix f true and false.
D. T explain hw individual facts are mentally tagged as true r false.
33. What can we learn frm the passage?
A. Our brains can d very little with false infrmatin.
B. Shrt-term memries can cver lng-term memries.
C. Dr. Rapp calls n peple nt t depend n the Internet.
D. Peple need t duble-check the infrmatin they questin.

Science shws that there is a right way t build habits that last. Here are sme tips t make exercise ne f them.
Start small
A gal f exercising fr 30 minutes a day, 5 times a week may sund gd. But hw likely are yu t fllw thrugh? The bigger yur gal is, the mre likely yu are t fail and give up. It’s better t start with easy exercise gals yu knw yu can achieve because yu’ll build self-cnfidence when yu meet them. Then yu can mve n t bigger gals.
Use triggers
Triggers are simply reminders — activities, places, r bjects — that kick f an autmatic (自动的) reactin. They help yu start exercising withut thinking r making decisins. Fr example, the alarm clck ges ff and yu’re ut f the dr fr yur walk. Yu spt yur sprts shes right by the bed and yu’re up and running. Find ways t build triggers int yur day t make exercise a n-brainer.
Reward (奖励) yurself
Peple wh ften exercise tend t d s because f the rewards it brings t their lives, such as mre energy, better sleep and a greater sense f happiness. Hwever, these can be lng-term rewards. When yu’re starting an exercise prgram, it’s imprtant t give yurself immediate rewards if yu successfully cmplete a wrkut. Chse smething yu lk frward t, but dn’t allw yurself t d it until after exercise. It can be smething as simple as having a ht bath r a favrite cup f cffee.
Chse exercise that makes yu feel happy and cnfident
If yur wrkut is unpleasant r makes yu feel bad r unhappy, yu’re unlikely t stick with it. Dn’t chse exercise like running r lifting weights at the gym just because yu think that’s what yu shuld d. Instead, pick activities that fit yur lifestyle, abilities and taste.
34. Why is it better t start with easy exercise gals?
