9、f(C) Owing to(D)Thanks to20 William Shakespeare described old age as “second childishness“sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste. In the case of taste he may, musically speaking, have been even more perceptive than he realized. A paper in Neurology by Giovanni Frisoni and his colleagues at the National C
10、entre for Research and Care of Alzheimers Disease in Brescia, Italy, shows that one form of senile dementia can affect musical desires in ways that suggest a regression, if not to infancy, then at least to a patients teens.Frontotemporal dementia is caused, as its name suggests, by damage to the fro
11、nt and sides of the brain. These regions are concerned with speech, and with such “higher“ functions as abstract thinking and judgment. Frontotemporal damage therefore produces different symptoms from the loss of memory associated with Alzheimers disease, a more familiar dementia that affects the hi
12、ppocampus and amygdale in the middle of the brain. Frontotemporal dementia is also rarer than patients; it has seen only 46 with frontotemporal dementia.Two of those patients interested Dr. Frisoni. One was a 68-year-old lawyer, the other a 73-year-old housewife. Both had undamaged memories, but dis
13、played the sorts of defect associated with frontotemporal dementiaa diagnosis that was confirmed by brain scanning.About two years after he was first diagnosed, the lawyer, once a classical music lover who referred to pop music as “mere noise“ , started listening to the Italian pop band “883“. As hi
14、s command of language and his emotional attachments to friends and family deteriorated, he continued to listen to the band at full volume for many hours a day. The housewife had not even had the lawyers love of classical music, having never enjoyed music of any sort in the past. But about a year aft
15、er her diagnosis she became very interested in the songs that her 11-year-old granddaughter was listening to.This kind of change in musical taste was not seen in any of the Alzheimers patients, and thus appears to be specific to those with frontotemporal dementia. And other studies have remarked on
16、how frontotemporal dementia patients sometimes gain new talents. Five sufferers who developed artistic abilities known. And in another lapse of musical taste, one woman with the disease suddenly started composing and singing country and western songs.Dr. Frisoni speculates that the illness is causin
17、g people to develop a new attitude towards novel experiences. Previous studies of novelty-seeking behavior suggest that it is managed by the brains right frontal lobe. A predominance of the right over the left frontal lobe, caused by damage to the latter, might thus lead to a quest for new experienc
18、e. Alternatively, the damage may have affected some specific neural circuit that is needed to appreciate certain kinds of music. Whether that is a gain or a loss is a different matter. As Dr. Frisoni puts it in his article, “de gustibus non disputandum est“. Or, in plainer words, there is no account
19、ing for taste.21 For Shakespeare, old age as “second childishness“ for they have the same_.(A)favorite(B) memory(C) experience(D)sense22 Which one is not a symptom of Frontotemporal dementia?(A)The loss of memory.(B) The loss of judgment.(C) The loss of abstract thinking.(D)The loss of speech.23 Fro

22、 the same taste24 To Rebuild Windows, Microsoft Razed WallsTo build its new operating system, Microsoft Corp. needed to do more than fix the flaws of its predecessor. The company also had to address major bugs in its software development process.The three-year effort to create Windows 7, which lands
23、 on store shelves this Thursday, was marked by closer collaboration between the thousands of people working on aspects of the high-stakes productreducing communications breakdowns that contributed to delays and defects in Windows Vista, one of the companys biggest missteps.Steve Ballmer, Microsofts
24、chief executive, also directed that software developers work more closely with computer makers, including Hewlett-Packard Co. , and other PC players to head off the kinds of problems that hobbled Vista.Its too soon to tell how well the effort worked. But favorable early reviews for Windows 7 have re

30、e Andes, is no place for kids. The ancient Inca saw things differently through, and so it was that one day, some 500 years ago, three children ascended the frigid and treacherous upper slopes of the 22,000 ft. peak. The three had spent time at the 17,000 ft. level, taking part in rituals that can on
31、ly be guessed at. Now, accompanied by a retinue of adults, they moved steadily upward. They would not return. Once at the summit, the childrentwo girls and a boy, between 8 and 15 years oldwould be ritually sacrificed and entombed beneath 5 ft. of rocky rubble. They may even have been buried alive.A
32、nd there the story might have ended but for the tireless efforts of Johan Reinhard, an independent archaeologist funded by the National Geographic Society. Reinhards specialty is scaling the Andes in search of sacrificial remains; he had already located 15 bodies, including the famed ice maiden he f
33、ound in 1995. But these three, whose discovery he announced last week, are by far the most impressive. They were frozen solid within hours of their burial. Two of the bodies are almost perfectly preserved; the third was evidently damaged by lightening. The childrens internal organs are not only inta
34、ct but also still contain blood. Says Craig Morris , an expert on Andean archaeology at New York Citys American Museum of Natural History: “It is truly a fantastic discovery. “What makes it so fantastic is not just the bodies themselves, but also the wealth of artifacts that were buried along with t
35、hem: 36 gold and silver statues, small woven bags, a ceramic vessel , leather sandals, a small llama figure and seashell necklaces. One of the girls, says Rein-hard , “ has a beautiful yellow, geometrically designed cover laid over her. “ Her head sports a plume of feathers and a golden mask.Some of
36、 the bodies were provisioned with bundles of food wrapped in alpaca skin, which indicates that the children came from the Incan social elitenot surprising, since only people of high status would have been considered worthy of sacrifice. Little is known about the sacrificial ceremony itself; these ob
37、jects, along with others found at the lower camp, should tell archaeologists plenty.The preserved bodies, meanwhile, will give scientists an unprecedented look at Incan physiology. Reinhard and his team took care to pack the children in plastic, snow and insulating foam before hauling them down the
38、mountain and the Argentine military whisked them off to the nearby town of Salta. There, experts will analyze their stomachs to find out what they ate for their last meal, their organs for clues about their diet and their DNA to try and establish their relationship to other ethnic groups. Reinhard w
