听力原文：M: What's Neil going to do when he leaves school？
W: Until a few months ago he was going to go to university, but he's changed his mind. Now he reckons he's going to make it in the pop world.
M: And how do you parents feel about that？
W: We think he's making an enormous mistake.
M: But surely he can go back to his studies if his music career fails.
W: That's true, but once he gets a taste of freedom, he'll find it more difficult to go back to college. I just think it's such a waste m in three years' time, he'll have got his degree and he'll still be young enough to try out the music business. At least if it doesn't work out he'll have a qualification behind him.
M: Have you discussed this with him？
W: Of course, but he's made up his mind. We're just hoping that he'll get out of his system and then come to his sense and go back to his studies. When I left school I didn't go on to university, and I've regretted it ever since. I just don't want him to make the same mistake as I did.
M: Will you support him while he's trying to be a pop singer？
W: You mean financially？ No. He won't be living at home, and we can't afford to pay for him to live in London, so it's up to him to make it work.

It's a lesson taught at every police academy (and by common sense): if someone flees a crime scene, there's reason to be suspicious. And if the person hops a flight to London, leaving behind his murdered wife and daughter, and skipping their funeral, the case shouldn't require Sherlock Holmes. And so there was a sense of relief last week when London police arrested Neil Entwistle,27,who will be extradited(引渡) to the United States to face charges of killing his wife, Rachel, and 9-month-old daughter, Lillian, in Hopkinton, Massachusetts, on January 20.
The case had gotten off to a rocky start. Despite repeated searches of the Entwistle home by family, neighbors and police, the bodies went undiscovered for several days, hidden under a pile of quilts in the master bedroom. The resulting uncertainty over the time of deaths led prosecutors to admit early on that they couldn't even tell if Entwistle was in the country at the time of the killings. Although prosecutors immediately called the husband a" person of interest, "they also explored other angles, including whether the killings could be related to the couple's use of eBay, the online marketplace where they'd sold software hut recently stopped making deliveries—leaving buyers complaining of being fooled.
Last week, however, police finished analyzing a gun owned by Rachel's stepfather, and said they found Rachel's DNA on the muzzle(枪口) and Neil's on the handle. Since Neil knew where the gun was kept and had keys to his in-laws home, police believe Neil used the gun to commit the crime and then returned it to his in-laws' gun case be fore heading to the airport.
Police say that Entwistle's only statement about the case was made during the phone call in which authorities informed him that they'd found the bodies. In that conversation, Entwistle—who has not yet entered a plea—told police hem returned home from an errand(差事) and found the bodies himself, then contemplated suicide before changing his mind and buying a one-way ticket to take refuge at his parents' home north of London.
The police say his larger concern, however, was the family's troubled finances. Neil, an unemployed electrical engineer, had racked up thousands of dollars of debt, some of it borrowed to launch a business helping clients set up Web sites. The couple had recently signed a $2,700-a-month lease on a home in Hopkinton, and it's not clear how they'd pay for it. Entwistle hatched the half-completed murder-suicide plan, prosecutors believe, in an attempt to escape his financial problems.
The police met difficulties at the beginning of the case that ______.
A．they couldn't find out Neil's motives of killing
B．they had no idea who might be the criminal
C．the bodies couldn't prove the killing by Neil
D．they could not know when Neil left for London

We assumed that students were "educated about professional conduct online and used better judgment." But medical students, it seems, are no different from the rest of us when it comes to posting drunken party pictures online or tweeting about their daily comings, goings and musings — however inappropriate they may be. Many students feel they are entitled to post what they wish on their personal profiles, maintaining that the information is in fact personal and not subject to the same policies and guidelines that govern their professional behavior. on campus. Though medical students would agree that physicians — and other professionals, like teachers — should be held to a higher standard of integrity by society, the new study suggests that they're confused by how rules apply, especially in cyberspace, once the white coat comes off. "They think it's something only for their friends, even though it's not private." says Dr. Neil Parker, senior associate dean for student affairs for graduate medical education at UCLA's David Geffen School of Medicine.
That attitude is largely dictated by age, says Parker. In focus groups involving students, faculty, administrators and staff, the school has found a clear generational divide between those who tend to blur the line between their personal and professional lives and those who don't. Younger students were more likely than older staff members to believe that their thoughts and opinions were valid to post online, regardless of their potentially damaging or discriminatory impact on others.
The issue is especially relevant when it comes to discussing patient cases. Laws prohibit doctors from talking about patients using individually identifiable information. However, as Parker notes, sharing patient care experiences can be a useful and powerful learning tool for medical students that encourages "reflection, empathy and understanding," he writes in the paper. Although discussing their experiences online may be allowed, students must be made aware that identifying information is not limited to patients' names and that divulging other characteristics and details often violates patient-privacy laws.
It's that type of education that medical schools need to include more in their curricula. Ensuring that students are aware of privacy settings on social-networking sites is another. "Most students want us to provide them with education and guidelines, but not policies. It is a different culture; we always say we have to be culture-sensitive to our patients, but we have to be culture-sensitive to our students as well." Parker says.
What is true according to the survey？
A．Many medical students treat patients unjustly.
B．Lots of medical staff violates confidentiality laws on the Internet.
C．Many medical students fail to hold high professional standard.
D．Patients' privacy needs to be protected badly.

Professor Arthur Shimamura, of the University of California at Berkeley, says there are three main ways in which mental function changes. The first is mental speed, for example how quickly you can react to fast-moving incidents on the road. Drivers in their late teens react quickly but tend to drive too fast, while the over sixties are more cautious but react more slowly. The near-inevitable slowing with age also partly explains why soccer players are seen as old in their thirties, while golf professionals are still in their prime at that age. This type of mental slowing results from a reduction in the efficiency with which the brain's neurons work.
The fact that adults find it harder to learn musical instruments than children points to a second type of mental loss with age—a reduction in learning capacity. The parts of the brain known as the temporal lobes control new learning, and are particularly vulnerable to the effects of aging. This means that, as we get older, we take longer to learn a new language, are slower to master new routines and technologies at work, and we have to rely more on diaries and other mental aids.
'Working memory' is the third brain system which is vulnerable to the effects of aging. Working memory is the brain's 'blackboard', where we juggle from moment to moment the things we have to keep in mind when solving problems, planning tasks and generally organizing our day-to-day life. Absent-mindedness occurs at all ages because of imperfections in the working memory system—so, for instance, you may continually lose your glasses, or find yourself walking into a room of your house only to find that you cannot remember what you came for.
Such absent-mindedness tends to creep up on us as we age and occurs because our plans and intentions, which are chalked up on the mental blackboard, are easily wiped out by stray thoughts and other distractions. Stress and preoccupation can also cause such absent-mindedness, in addition to age-related changes in the brain. The frontal lobes of the brain—located behind the forehead and above the eyes are where the working memory system is located. Like the temporal lobes, which handle new learning, the frontal lobes are more vulnerable to the aging process than other parts of the brain.
The news, however, is not all bleak. Although neurons reduce in number with age, the remaining neurons send out new and longer connecting fibres(dendrites) to maintain connections and allow us to function reasonably well with only relatively small drops in ability.
This and other evidence suggests that the principle 'use it or lose it' might apply to the aging brain. Professor Shimamura studied a group of university professors who were still intellectually active, and compared their performance on neuropsychological tests with that of others of their age group, as well as with younger people. He found that on several tests of memory, the mentally active professors in their sixties and early Seventies were superior to their contemporaries, and as good as the younger people.
Research on animals provides even stronger evidence of the effects of stimulation on the brain structure. Professor Bryan Kolb, of the University of Lethbridge in Canada, has shown that animals kept in stimulating environments show sprouting(生长) and lengthening of the connecting nerve fibres in their brains, in comparison With animals kept in unstimulating environments.
The beneficial effects of continued mental activity are shown by the fact that older contestants in quiz shows are just as fast and accurate in resp
