How do you remember the way to your house? Where do dreams come from? It is your brain(大脑) that does these things. A British scientist showed that “sleep can improve one’s memory.” It’s not a dream for students to study when they sleep. In fact, your brains is working day and night. If you learn words before bed, a certain part of the brain may help you to remember the words while you sleep. What’s more, another scientist in the USA found that there was a “talent button(天才按钮)” in the human brain. It might make a person more talented.

There are more interesting things about the brain. Your brain uses less energy than a fridge light. Just two bananas can give the brain enough energy to work for a whole day. According to some scientists, yawning(打哈欠) keeps our brains “cool”, which makes us think quicker.

Here are some pieces of advice to keep a good brain:

Eat healthy food.

Get a lot of playtime or exercise.

Don’t drink or smoke.

Use your brain a lot.

阅读下面短文,回答下 * * 道题。

加拿大某公司建造了一座示范厂,用酒精而不是用硫磺造纸浆。该公司董事长佩蒂说:

“这是未来之路。用酒精制造纸浆意味着出现一种清洁、无污染的技术。”

如果在小规模工业里取得成功的这项技术也能在正式规模的工厂里生产出较便宜的纸浆,它将对纸价产生影响,这项技术还能消除造纸工业常有的臭鸡蛋味______硫化氢的气味。

该公司使用的这种工艺叫ALCELL(即酒精ALCOHOL和纤维素CELLULOSE的合成词),它使用酒精和水代替硫磺把木材分解成纸浆。这种工艺是加拿大在1972年发明的,以前从来没有实现商品化,但是这家公司希望它能使造纸工业发生彻底变革。

佩蒂说:“建造一座新的纸浆厂要耗资10亿美元,而且它要求木材供应源源不断。如有 ALCELL工艺,只要耗资3.5亿美元就能建造一个工厂,并使工厂不停地运转,所需木材供应量较小。”他又说:“那意味着一个工厂一天生产350吨而不是1 000吨纸浆。”林业产品分析家邓肯森说:“从环境方面来说,它比较清洁,而且小型厂这个概念将会使建造新纸浆厂变得较容易。”这种工艺取得成功,它将能以较低的成本生产纸浆。

对于ALCELL工艺,佩蒂和邓肯森发表了各自的看法。下列对他俩看法的叙述,符合原文意思的一项是()。

A.佩蒂认为该工艺能降低造纸成本,是一种无污染的技术,邓肯森对此持有相同的看法

B.佩蒂认为该工艺清洁、无污染,降低了造纸成本,但邓肯森并不完全同意这种看法

C.邓肯森认为该工艺容易掌握,利于建造新纸浆厂,但佩蒂并不完全同意这种看法

D.邓肯森认为该工艺对造纸原料要求低,利于环境保护,佩蒂对此持有相同的看法
