25．Do you ever notice how stress and mental frustration can affect your physical abilities？When you are worried about something at work，do you find yourself more tired at the end of the day？This phenomenon is a result of the activation of a specific area of the brain when we attempt to participate in both physical tasks and mental tasks simultaneously.
Ranjana Mehta，Ph.D.，assistant professor at the Texas A&M Health Science Center School of Public Health，carried out a study examining the relationship between physical and mental tiredness and brain behavior.The study showed that if we attempt mental tasks while doing physical tasks，we activate specific areas，called the prefrontal cortex （PFC） （前额皮质），in our brain.
This can cause our bodies to become tired much sooner than if we were only participating in a physical task.The brain is just like any other biological tissue （组织），because it can be overused and can suffer from tiredness.
"Existing examinations of physical and mental tiredness have been used to study muscular and biomechanical （生物力学的） changes，" said Mehta. "The purpose of this study was to examine the influence on the PFC while we compare the changes in brain behavior with traditional measures of tiredness."
According to Mehta，study findings show that there were lower blood oxygen levels in the PFC following combined physical and mental tiredness compared to that of just physical tiredness conditions.Through simultaneous examination of the brain and muscle function it is obvious that when we participant in highly cognitive tasks，brain resources are divided which may speed up the development of physical tiredness.
It is critical that researchers consider the brain as well as the body when examining tiredness development and its influence on the body.This can provide us with a total understanding of what is happening to the body when we perform our daily activities. "Not a lot of people see the value in looking at both the brain and the body together，" said Mehta. "However，no one does purely physical or mental work；they always do both."
（1）What does the passage mainly tell us？
A．Influence of stress and mental frustration on tiredness development.
B．Influence of stress and mental frustration on mental abilities.
C．Influence of mental work on tiredness development.
D．Influence of physical work on mental abilities.
（2）What does the underlined word "simultaneously" in the first paragraph probably mean？
A．At the same time.
B．One by one.
C．Step by step.
D．Over and over again.
（3）It can be inferred that Ranjana Mehta's study has little to do with.
A．tiredness in the body
B．brain behavior
C．mental tiredness
D．mental diseases
（4）The brain is not an exception in the body when it.
A．is used to complete a specific task
B．suffers from tiredness caused by overuse
C．becomes tired much sooner
D．is examined from a physical view
（5）According to Mehta，one of the study's aims was to find.
A．how the combination of physical and mental tasks affects the PFC
B．the differences between brain behavior and traditional measures
C．why changes in brain behavior influence the PFC
D．muscular and biomechanical changes组卷：5引用：1难度：0.5

26．Teamwork is an important part of the health and fitness program at Spirit Club，where most of the participants have disabilities.
Jared Ciner created the program two years ago， "Our main focus is the same thing as any other gym's，which is to help people be active and healthy，but the difference is that we do change a little bit to make sure that it is right pace for the people we are working with，so that everybody can follow along."
Ciner used to work as a director for a local organization aimed at helping people with disabilities and as a part-time personal trainer at gyms." I noticed that many of the people who I was working with who had disabilities did not exercise，struggled with weight problems，and were looking for more physical methods and more social ways，" he said.
His volunteer experience in Ethiopia working with children from very poor families helped him understand the influence of organized physical activity，too." That helped me realize how much organized physical activity can help people connect to each other and increase people's self-esteem （自尊），" Ciner said.
Classes at Spirit Club are interactive，and students can come with parents.They participate in partnered workouts and learn balance，strength，speed and agility（灵活性）.They are also encouraged to eat right.
Alan Bradshaw，who is mentally disabled，has been coming to classes for two years. "He recently lost 21 pounds，" said his mother. "He is more outgoing.When he first started，he couldn't sit on the floor，get down on the floor.He is doing that now.Great changes have happened to him and it is an important step forward for him.He likes the gym because he can make friends easily and exercise at the same time，" she said.
（1）What is the main purpose of the program at Spirit Club？ （no more than 8 words）
（2）What was Jared Ciner before he created Spirit Club？（ no more than 15 words）
（3）What is Jared Ciner's view on organized physical activities？ （no more than 13 words）
（4）How does the underlined part in the last paragraph mean？ （no more than 2 words）
（5）What do you think of Spirit Club？Give reasons in your own words. （no more than 25 words）组卷：10引用：2难度：0.5
