The works of Shakespeare and Wordsworth are "rocket boosters" to the brain and better therapy than self-help books, researchers will say this week.
Scientists, psychologists and English academics at the University of Liverpool have found that reading the works of the Bard and other classical writers has a beneficial effect on the mind, catches readers' attention and causes moments of self-reflection.
Using scanners, they monitored the brain activity of volunteers as they read works by William Shakespeare, William Wordsworth, T. S. Eliot and others.
They then " translated" the texts into more "straightforward ", modem language and again monitored the readers' brains as they read the words.
Scans showed that the more " challenging" prose and poetry set off far more electrical activity in the brain than the more pedestrian versions.
Scientists were able to study the brain activity as it responded to each word and record how it "lit up" as the readers encountered unusual words, surprising phrases or difficult sentence structures.
This " lighting up" of the mind lasts longer than the initial electrical spark, shifting the brain to a higher gear, and encouraging further reading.
The research also found that reading poetry, in particular, increases activity in the right hemisphere (半球) of the brain, an area concerned with "autobiographical memory" , helping the readers to reflect on and reappraise (重新评估) their own experiences in light of what they have read. The academics said this meant the classics were more useful than self-help books.
Philip Davis, an English professor who has worked on the study with the university's magnetic resonance centre, will tell a conference this week :Serious literature acts like a rocket booster to the brain.
The research shows the power of literature to shift mental pathways, to create new thoughts, shapes and connections in the young and the elderly alike.
11.How do classics such as the works of Shakespeare and Wordsworth benefit the readers
A.They set off far less electrical activity in the brain.
B.They light up the mind shorter than the initial electrical spark.
C.They shift physical pathways in the young and the elderly.
D.They draw readers' attention and help make self-examination.
12.How did the scientists and experts carry out the experiment
A.By scanning the readers' brain activity. B.By reading works of different writers.
C.By lighting up the activity of the brains. D.By investigating the habits of the readers.
13.What can we conclude according to the research
A.Self-help books are more valuable than classics.
B.Serious literature lights up the mind shorter than ordinary versions.
C.The right hemisphere of the brain is related to autobiographical memory.
D.literature has a beneficial effect only on the mind of the young.
14.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage
A.Ordinary Versions Create New Thoughts
B.Modern Language Increases the Brain Activity
C.Classics Help Improve the Brain Activity
D.Self-help Books, Rocket Boosters

答案以及解析
一、语法填空
1.答案： have been writing
解析：句意为：过去几天，我一直在写一份关于这里环境的报告，我必须在下周提交这份报告。根据over the last few days以及which I have to hand in next week可知，此处表示"写作"这一动作从过去一直持续到现在，还有可能继续下去，应用现在完成进行时。故填have been writing。
2.答案：wandering
解析：考查现在分词。句意：当我2004年回到伦敦时，我发现自己漫步到了南岸，在那里待了几个小时。分析句子成分可知，设空处为"find+宾语+宾补"结构中的宾补，其与宾语myself之间为主动关系，所以应用动词-ing形式作宾补。故填wandering。
3.答案：will do
解析：考查一般将来时。句意：—我原以为我已经提醒你把垃圾带出去了。—哦，我忘了。我马上把垃圾带出去。根据句意可知，本空表示"临时决定"要做的动作，故应用一般将来时will do。
4.答案：didn't know
解析：考查一般过去时。句意： —汤姆现在在医院，他摔坏胳膊了。—啊，我不知道，我今天下午去看他。根据句意可知，本空应用一般过去时表示说话人原来不知道此事。
5.答案：had come
解析：考查时态。句意：这是我第一次来你的家乡。此处为句型this/it was the first time that+过去完成时。故填had come。
二、翻译题
6.答案：Having worked hard for five years
解析：having done是动词-ing形式的完成式。此处作状语，主语we和work之间是逻辑上的主谓关系，其动作发生在谓语动词表示的动作之前，故应用having done形式。
7.答案：a guarantee that it would never happen again
解析：guarantee作名词时可表示"保证", 其后可跟that引导的同位语从句，解释说明guarantee的内容。
8.答案：As all of us know/As we all know
解析：此处As作关系代词引导非限制性定语从句，在从句中作know的宾语，表示"正如"。
9.答案：Whatever decision you are about to make about your future/Whatever you are about to decide about your future
解析： 此处应用Whatever引导让步状语从句。Whatever既可作定语修饰decision, 又可作decide的宾语。
10.答案：find myself filled with confidence/find myself full of confidence
解析：根据句意和提示可知，此处应用"find+宾语+宾补"结构。 宾语应用反身代词myself; 宾补可用过去分词短语"filled with confidence"或形容词短语"full of confidence"。
