Our brain is the most important part in our body. It helps us to think, speak, feel, and move. It's no wonder we need to look after it and just like the rest of our body. We need to keep it exercised to keep it healthy.

Our brain is made up of 86 billion neurons—or nerve cells (神经元), but as we age, some of these gradually die off. In serious situations, nerve cells in different areas of the brain become hurt and finally die, leading to a condition called dementia (痴呆), which influences a person's ability to think properly.

It's a good idea to train our brain by learning ways to increase our memory and intelligence. For example, solving crossword puzzles (字迹) can be really helpful. Dr Catherine Loveday, who's a neuropsychologist, thinks learning a second language is also great for the brain, as it requires us to switch (切换) between languages, making our brain stronger.

However, if you don't speak another language, there are still ways to train your brain. If you're right-handed, try performing tasks like brushing your teeth with your left hand to improve your brain.

The main reason we do these exercises is to keep our brain active. It can help to develop additional abilities to help protect the brain against the loss of memory or thinking. Dr Catherine Loveday, says, "Even if people take up languages or other activities later in life, it will provide them with a degree of protection." As an old saying goes, "It's never too old to learn."

According to a study, people are surprised to know about that eating chocolate might increase our ability to get and use knowledge. It could improve how you learn and use information. Although it might not be good for the rest of your body, at least it could make you a brain box!

The sun is setting,brightening your kids' faces as they play in the waves.You reach for your phone for this perfect moment.But before you do,here's a bit of surprising science:Taking photos is not the perfect way to keep memory as you think.

Taking too many pictures could actually harm the brain's ability to keep memories,says Elizabeth Loftus,a psychology professor at the University of California

Photos may outsource memories.It works in two ways:We either shake off the responsibility of remembering moments when taking pictures,or we're so distracted(分心的)by the process that we miss the moment altogether.

The first explanation is the loss of memory.People know that their camera is recording that moment,so they don't try to remember.Similarly,if you write down someone's phone number(不假思索地)because your brain tells you there's just no need.That's all well and good — until that piece of paper goes missing.

The other is distraction.We're distracted by the process of taking a photo — how we hold our phone,composing the photo,such as smiling faces,all of which uses up our attention that could otherwise help us memorize.

However,taking photos can benefit memory — when done mindfully.While taking a photo may be distracting,the act of preparation by focusing on visual details around has some upsides.

When people take the time to zoom in (拉近镜头) on specific things,memories become strengthened.

Another benefit is that we recall moments more accurately with the photos.Memory has been reshaped with the help of new information and new experiences.Thus,photos or videos help us recall moments as if they really happened.

Memories die away without a visual record backing them up.Therefore,a photo is an excellent tool to help remember when done purposefully,which is worth exploring further.

 阅读下列材料,从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案 

These days, more and more people like the "city walk" around China. The city walk is a kind of city tour coming from the UK. It means tourists follow a planned route(路线)working deeply on the city's history and culture. During the traditional kind of travel, people need to follow a group of people. But city walk routes are special for every tourist. People probably choose a route on their own and move on foot without a purpose(目的). They can also talk with locals(当地人)and taste local food on their way. 

City walkers may be tourists from other places or local young people. For tourists, by taking part in a city walk, they can learn the city's history and culture. For the local young people, they may spend weekends knowing more about their living places. And they even share their routes and places online. So more people get interested in their cities and come to visit them. 

Now the city walk is very hot. However, we also find that to make money, some travel agencies(旅行社)may make some routes without understanding the culture and history of a city. That will make tourists lose interest in the city walk. What's more, many young people spend much time taking photos to just show themselves online.
