Icebike is a term used for winter bicycling? particularly in snowy or icy conditions on roads or tracks. It can also refer specifically to ice bike racing. 1. While special equipment is available for icebiking, less extreme versions of the sport are often undertaken on normal bicycles.
Biking during the winter can generally be referred to as icebike. Ideal weather conditions typically range from cool and rainy, to cold and dry, to cold and snowy or icy. 2. Cyclists may choose to bike during the winter for a variety of reasons? including commuting（通勤），exercise or simply for fun. The types and amounts of special equipment required for winter cycling vary by climate conditions and whether the biking is done primarily on roads or on tracks.
In milder winter conditions? a regular road or mountain bike is often enough for icebiking. For snowy or icy roads and tracks, special tires may be necessary. Icebikers may use tires with screws（螺丝）inserted from the inside. 3.
Other equipment may be necessary for winter cycling whether or not there is snow and ice. Fenders（挡泥板）can prevent water or snow from being thrown up onto a cyclist. 4.They are of particular importance during the winter since it is dark during a larger part of the day.

Not all bad emotions (情感) are necessarily bad. In fact, they can direct your behaviour in useful ways. If you’re stuck in traffic, anger with the situation might motivate you to find an alternative route (线路), which will then relieve your stress. But anger is less useful if you’re in the same situation, but stuck on a motorway with no option to alter directions.
Emotions have physiological effects, such as raising the level of cortisol in your bloodstream, which can affect your health. Indeed, a new study, published in Psychology and Aging, shows that high levels of anger are associated with poor health in older people.
The Canadian study did the study on 226 adults aged 59-93. They took blood samples to assess levels of chronic (慢性的) low-grade inflammation (炎症) and asked the participants to report any age-related chronic illnesses they might have. The participants also completed a short questionnaire about the level of anger or sadness they experienced in three typical days over a one-week period.
For the analysis, the researchers considered whether age could affect the results. They found that higher levels of anger were associated with inflammation and ill health in the oldest participants (aged 80 and above), but not the youngest ones (59-79 years). Sadness was not associated with inflammation or ill health in either age group.
The study is cross-sectional, meaning that it assessed a group of people at a single point in time. To get a fuller understanding of the relationship between bad emotions and health, we need studies that follow participants for a period of time — so-called prospective observation studies. Future studies should also take into account other factors that might relate, such as other emotions, stress and personality.
Although this new research shows a link between emotion and health in older age, we do not know whether anger causes inflammation and illness or whether health problems make people angrier.
1.What does the underlined word “alter” in paragraph 1 mean?
A.Change. B.Control.
C.Measure. D.Operate.
2.Why were participants taken blood samples?
A.To analyze their levels of health.
B.To fill in the form of questionnaires.
C.To know the levels of some inflammation.
D.To compare the change of anger in three days.
3.What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A.Anger is the greatest danger to health.
B.The influence of anger on illness is unclear.
C.People in poor health are easy to get angry.
D.Evidence is needed to prove the effect of health.
4.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Adjusting Our Emotions Is Necessary
B.Bad Emotions Affect People’s Feelings
C.New Conclusions Make People Amazed
D.Anger Is Linked to Illness in Old Age
Researchers in Singapore found that eating mushrooms over twice per week could help prevent memory and language problems later in life.
According to the study, published in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease, there is a unique antioxidant (抗氧化物质) present in mushrooms that helps protect certain brain functions.
Researchers observed 663 Chinese adults aged over 60 whose diets and lifestyles were tracked from 2011 to 2017. In the study, the participants were asked how often they ate six different types of mushrooms: oyster, shiitake, white button, dried, golden and tinned. The findings showed that eating more than two shares of mushrooms per week somehow lowered the chances of mild cognitive impairment (MCi) by 50% against those who ate fewer than one share.
MCI is a condition that can make people forgetful, affect their memory and cause problems with language, attention and finding the exact position of objects in space. Changes in behavior can be not very noticeable and not serious enough to be known as dementia (痴呆).
Participants who ate more mushrooms were found to perform better in thinking and processing exams and also exhibited a faster processing speed. The advantage was reportedly more apparent in those who ate more than two shares a week or more than 300 grams.
The scientists pointed out, however, that they have yet to put up a direct link between the fungi and brain function.
The researchers also acknowledged that since this study mainly relied on self-reported information on mushroom intake and other dietary factors (因素), further studies may be required.
Still, the lead study author Lei Feng is encouraged by their findings.
“This correlation is surprising and encouraging,” Lei said.
Mushrooms are one of the richest dietary sources of ergothioneine — a matter which humans can’t make on our own.
1.What are the findings in paragraph 3 about?
A.Diets and lifestyles. B.The percent of MCI.
C.The types of mushrooms. D.The benefit of eating mushrooms.
2.What can we know about MCI?
A.It can strengthen memory. B.It can result in language problems.
C.It can make people get lost. D.It can lessen the chance of forgetfulness.
3.What is the result if students often eat more mushrooms?
A.They will take the exams much more easily
B.Their academic performance improves greatly
C.Their thinking ability is better than the majority
D.They will love communicating with others.
4.Where does the text most probably appear?
A.Scientific fiction. B.An advertisement.
C.A science report. D.Adult literature.
