Spatial navigation (空间导航) relies on brain regions that are commonly affected by the early stages of Alzheimer's disease. Before severe and obvious memory problems set in and people are diagnosed with dementia (痴呆), they might report problems with finding their way around and frequently get lost in familiar neighborhoods. In that early stage, however, it is difficult to know whether their damaged navigational skills are actually due to the disease or simply a part of normal aging—because we currently don't have a firm grasp on what “normal” is.
In their recent study, Spiers and his colleagues aimed to change that by establishing a common baseline for adults' navigational skills, which naturally decline with age. For that, the researchers needed large numbers of people梙encee the idea for crowdsourcing the experiment via a gaming APP that measures spatial navigation ability.
Navigating inside a game may not be exactly the same as finding one's way in a real－world situation. But people are likely to use the same cognitive mechanisms (认知机制) in both situations. “If you are good at navigating, you'll do well in the game. And if you are bad at finding your way out there, you'll also struggle in the video game，” Spiers says, adding that their team still plans to compare the game performance with real－life performance in near future.
Since its launch in May, some 2.5 million healthy people have played Sea Hero Quest, making it one of the most impressive scientific experiments to date just by the sheer number of participants. “To my knowledge, never before has spatial navigation been quantified on such a large scale，” says Katherine Possin, an assistant professor of neuropsychology at the University of California, San Francisco, who was not involved with the research.
So far one of the main findings coming out of Sea Hero Quest is a simple linear decline with age: From the age 19 onward, spatial navigation steadily worsens from year to year. The 19－year－olds were able to remember their starting point and accurately hit it by shooting a flare (信号弹) back to that position 74 percent of the time. Those aged 75 succeeded only 46 percent of the time.

Another finding is that men appear to perform better than women on these specific tasks. Although this finding seems to fit with the long－held assumption that men are better navigators, rather it may reflect that males have more experience with games. The researchers tried to account for this possibility, yet still found a gender difference in performance. Spiers notes, however, that the games boys and girls play in early childhood梬hichh could influence brain development and spatial skills—are much harder to account for. “The question is why. And we don't have an answer yet，” Spiers says. “We are really skimming the surface. There's so much data from everyone who's played the game. We have two years of analysis ahead of us.”
( )58. What is the main purpose in experimenting via gaming?
A. To compare Alzheimer's disease and normal aging.
B. To provide a baseline measure of navigation ability.
C. To figure out the way of dealing with dementia.
D. To find out how to firmly grasp what “normal” is.
( )59. According to the third paragraph, what Spiers says indicates that ________.
A. the levels of performance in both situations are tightly correlated
B. the popularity of the game makes itself a more impressive experiment
C. the plan to compare the game and real life has been carefully made
D. the scale of the game is so large that it is difficult to quantify
( )60. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?
A. Men were assumed to be better game players long before.
B. Spatial navigation betters steadily from the age 19 onward.
C. The reason for data being analysed is hard to account for.
D. The findings reveal variations based on age and gender.

The habit－forming process within our brains is a three－step loop (回路). First, there is a cue, a trigger that tells your brain to go into automatic mode (模式) and which habit to use. Then there is the routine, which can be physical or mental or emotional, Finally, there is a reward, which helps your brain figure out if this particular loop is worth remembering for the future. Over time, this loop梒uee, routine, reward ecomess more and more automatic. The cue and reward become intertwined (交织) until a powerful sense of anticipation and a desire appears. Eventually, a habit is born.
Habits aren't destiny. Habits can be ignored, changed, or replaced. But the reason the discovery of the habit loop is so important is that it reveals a basic truth: When a habit appears, tile brain stops fully participating in decision making. It stops working so hard, or shifts focus to other tasks. So unless you deliberately fight a habit梪nlesss you find new routines梩hee pattern will unfold automatically.
Habits never really disappear. They're encoded (嵌入) into the structures of our brain, and that's a huge advantage for us, because it would be awful if we had to relearn how to drive after every vacation. The problem is that your brain can't tell the difference between bad and good habits, and so if you have a bad one, it's always lurking (蛰伏) there, waiting for the right cues and rewards.
This explains why it's so hard to create exercise habits, for instance, or change what we eat. Once we develop a routine of sitting on the sofa, rather than runing, or snacking whenever we pass a doughnut box, those patterns always remain inside our heads. By the same rule, though, if we learn

to create new neurological (神经系统的) routines that overpower those behaviors—if we take control of the habit loop—we can force those bad tendencies into the background. And once someone creates a new pattern, studies have demonstrated, going for a jog or ignoring the doughnuts becomes as automatic as any other habit.
Of course, those decisions are habitual, effortless. As long as your basal ganglia (基底核) is complete and the cues remain constant, the behaviors will occur unthinkingly. At the same time, however, the brain's dependence on automatic routines can be dangerous. Habits are often as much a curse as a benefit.
61. What can we learn about the habit loop from the first two paragraphs?
A. It helps your brain understand what is worth remembering.
B. It is a three－step loop consisting of a cue, a routine and a reward.
C. It becomes automatic and develops a sense of anticipation and desire.

( )63. What can be inferred from the last sentence in Paragraph 4?
A. Habits can be changed and replaced. B. Habits can not be ignored or created.
C. Old patterns always exist in our brain. D. New patterns seldom remain in our heads.
( )64. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. The discovery of the habit loop. B. The automatic pattern of habits.
C. The research on the habit－forming process. D. The brain's dependence on automatic routines.

One steamy July afternoon in central Arkansas, I was working on an important project in my home office with a dear friend and colleague. My trusty printer was churning out (快速生产) a time－sensitive report when it simply stopped. After fifteen minutes of trying to repair, I decided to buy a new printer. Upon our return, my heart froze to see my house on fire.
Despite having spent much of my life writing, I was still lost for adequate words to describe the sick, sinking feeling of seeing your home, business, and belongings going up in flames along with photographs and memories collected over a lifetime. But the panic that filled my shocked heart in that awful moment was for the nine cats that shared my home after being rescued from situations of abuse and abandonment.
Responding to an early security－system warning, the amazing firefighters arrived in record time, but the chemical－laden smoke had already caused deaths. I examined and kissed each cat goodbye, extremely grateful that they had passed gently, without injuries or burns.
Only animal lovers really understand the unbelievable impact that the loss of one beloved four－legged family member can have on your heart, mind and soul. The loss of so many dearly loved creatures sent me reeling (发 蒙).
After staying with another great friend for a couple of weeks, I was relocated to a furnished apartment. One evening, about a month after moving in, I was occupied in writing a mystery novel when a falsetto “meow” sounded from outside the apartment door. Was it my mind playing tricks again? More than once I had heard, seen or felt the brush of one of my departed furry roommates. The meow grew louder and more insistent. Curious, I opened the door.
Sitting on the doorstep was a kitten (小猫) with an exotic black coat and alert amber eyes. A
5 / 7
neighbor walking by picked him up and began petting him. When I remarked how cute her kitten was, she explained that he had been born under a bridge and looked around for food. This kitty－loving neighbor was quick to offer an extra litter box if I was interested in giving him a home. My immediate reaction was a facetious (开玩笑的) “that's all I need！”心)_had_been_well_reasoned_and_remained_firm. But without hesitation she put the adorable kitten down. I thanked her and closed the door, resolved to just let him stay until a real home could be found.
That night, as I slid between the sheets of the still unfamiliar bed in the still unfamiliar apartment, the energetic little fur ball jumped onto the bed, yawned dramatically, and nestled by my side. Those who have never shared a sleep with a creature or two may not relate, but that was the first night since the fire that I actually slept. Stubbornly determined not to open myself to more animals—to more pain—I had refused to admit how desperately I missed having a warm fuzzy cuddled (依偎) close.
Needless to say, the cat community knew the precise prescription for healing far better than I. The name Starlight (Star for short) seemed perfect because that night he brought some light back into my life.
Star adores wrestling rubber bands, races up and down the stairs, darts outside anytime the door opens, suddenly appears everywhere I don't want him to be, holds onto the broom while I'm trying to sweep, and rolls in catnip or whatever else happens to be on the floor. In hindsight (事后看来), a better name might have been “Star, Stop It！”
In the five years since the fire, we have been through a lot, Starlight and I. We returned to the house, managed to keep the business alive, brought the mystery novel to the final edits before it's submitted in hopes of publication, and made a lot more resolutions. Star helped me through a massive, yet untraditional, healing of spirit. The memories of the kitties that passed in the fire now spark only warmth in my heart and win some smiles. Every single day, I appreciate the serendipitous (有意外收获的) nature of the Universe that sent me hope in the form of a little black furball.
So take a little advice from my furry friend: no matter how hopeless things may become or how fixed your resolution may be, open the door whenever opportunity knocks. It just might be a star to light your way.
