Human memory, formerly believed to be rather inefficient, is really more sophisticated than that of a computer. Researchers approaching the problem from a variety of points of view have all concluded that there is a great deal more store in our minds than has been generally supposed. Dr Wider Penfield, a Canadian neurosurgeon, proved that by stimulating the brains electrically, he could elicit the total recall of specific events in his subject lives. Event dreams and other minor events supposedly forgotten for many years suddenly emerged in detail. Although the physical basis for memory is not yet understood, one theory is that the fantastic capacity for storage in the brain is the result of an almost unlimited combination of interconnections between brain cells, stimulated by patterns of activities. Repeated references to the same information support recall. Or, to stay that another way, improved performance is the result of strengthening the chemical bonds in the memory. Câu 45: According to the passage, the capacity for storage in the brain. A. Can be understood by examining the physiology. B. is a limited combination of relationship. C. has a limited combination of relationship. D. is not influenced by repetition. Câu 46: The word bonds in the last sentence of the passage means.

Chemical reaction Câu 48: According to the passage, researches have concluded that A. the mind has much greater capacity of memory than was previously believed. B. the physical basis for memory is clear. C. different points of view are valuable. D. human memory is inefficient. Câu 49: How did Penfield elicit dream and other minor events from the past? A. By surgery B. By electric stimulation C. By repetition D.

Millions of people are using cellphones today. In many places, it is actually considered unusual not to use one. In many countries, cellphones are very popular with young people. They find that the phones are more than a means of communication - having a mobile phone shows that they are cool and connected. The explosion in mobile phone use around the world has made some health professionals worried. Some doctors are concerned that in the future many people may suffer health problems from the use of mobile phones. In England, there has been a serious debate about this issue. Mobile phone companies are worried about the negative publicity of such ideas. They say that there is no proof that mobile phones are bad for your health. On the other hand, medical studies have shown changes in the brain cells of some people who use mobile phones. Signs of change in the tissues of the brain and head can be detected with modern scanning equipment. In one case, a traveling salesman had to retire at young age because of serious memory loss. He couldn't remember even simple tasks. He would often forget the name of his own son. This man used to talk on his mobile phone for about six hours a day, every day of his working week, for a couple of years. His family doctor blamed his mobile phone use, but his employer's doctor didn't agree. What is it that makes mobile phones potentially harmful? The answer is radiation. High-tech machines can detect very small amounts of radiation from mobile phones. Mobile phone companies agree that there is some radiation, but they say the amount is too small to worry about. As the discussion about their safety continues, it appears that it's best to use mobile phones less often. Use your regular phone if you want to talk for a long time. Use your mobile phone only when you really need it. Mobile phones can be very useful and convenient, especially in emergencies. In the future, mobile phones may have a warning label that says they are bad for your health. So for now, it's wise not to use your mobile phone too often.
