2、s it has a more important purpose. An international team of scientists from the University of California at Berkeley studied the blinking of human eyelids.The journal Current Biology published their findings.The team said they found that blinking “repositions our eyeballs so we can stay focused” on
3、what we are seeing.They said that when we blink our eyelids,the eyes roll back into their socketsthe bony area that surrounds and protects the eyes.However,the researchers found the eyes dont always return to the same position.They said this causes the brain to tell the eye muscles to reorganize our
4、 eyesight. Gerrit Maus is the lead writer of the report.He serves as an assistant professor of psychology at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore.Maus said,“Our eye muscles are quite sluggish(迟缓的)and imprecise,so the brain needs to constantly adapt its motor signals to make sure our eyes ar
5、e pointing where theyre supposed to.Our findings suggested that the brain measures the difference in what we see before and after a blink,and commands the eye muscles to make the needed corrections.” The researchers said that without such corrections our surroundings would appear unclear and even ju
6、mpy.They said the movement acts “like a steadicam(摄 影机稳定器)of the mind.” The researchers said they asked volunteers to sit in a dark room while staring at a small dot on a flat surface.They used special cameras to follow the volunteers blinks and eye movements.After each blink,the dot was moved one c
7、entimeter to the right.The volunteers did not notice this,but the brain did.It followed the movement and directed the eye muscles to refocus on the dot.After the dot was moved in this way 30 times,the volunteers eyes changed their focus to the place where they predicted it would be. Professor Maus s
8、aid,“Even though participants did not consciously register that the dot had moved,their brains did,and adjusted with the corrective eye movements.These findings add to our understanding of how the brain constantly adapts to changes,commanding our eye muscles to correct for errors in our bodies own h

12、答案及剖析: 1.B 细节理解题。根据 The team said they found that blinking“ repositions our eyeballs so we can stay focused”on what we are seeing.They said this causes the brain to tell the eye muscles to reorganize our eyesight.可知,眨眼睛是在复位我们的眼 球,这样我们可以专注于我们所看到的。故选 B。 2.D 细节理解题。根据 After each blink,the dot was moved
13、one centimeter to the right.The volunteers did not notice this,but the brain did.It followed the movement and directed the eye muscles to refocus on the dot.可知,是我们的大脑指挥着眼部肌肉,使 得眼球重新聚焦在点上。故选 D 3.A 词义猜测题。本句句意为“即使参与者没有意识到点的移动,但是他们的大脑意识到了,并调 整矫正眼球随之运动。 ”故选 A。 4.C 主旨大意题。由全文内容可知,我们的大脑指挥着眼部肌肉,通过眨眼睛的动作复位我们的
14、眼 球,使得眼球重新聚焦在我们看的物体上。所以,大脑在我们看清物体方面起着重要作用。故选 C。 .七选五 (2018 安徽合肥联考) A new report says plastics are responsible for $13 billion in damage to the oceans and the undersea environment.The findings were announced recently at a United Nations conference.1. Plastic thrown away carelessly makes its way into
15、rivers and other waterways.2. After a while,it collects in the sea.And plastic never goes away.Plastic is not biodegradabledestroyed by bacteria or natural processes.Instead,it just breaks up into smaller pieces over time.The oceans contain a lot of chemicals and other pollutants(污染物).3. That means
16、harmful material may get into our food supply. 4. Human beings cause pollution and they can take steps to stop it.They can use fewer single-use product containers and throw plastics away correctly. Plastic recycling programs also workwhere old bottles and other plastics are collected,broken down and used to make new products.We could reuse bottles in our households many times if we wish to,rather than end it after the first use.We could, when we get rid of that plastic,rec
