You know that eating a suitable diet and getting plenty of exercise help make your body healthy and strong. But did you know that there are ways to make your brain healthier and smarter?
Studies show that when the brains is forced to do something new, it creates new neural (神经元) pathways. The more pathways you have, the faster you can think and the better memory you will have. Wonderful steps towards a smarter brain are as follows:
Choose proper TV programs
Watching an average TV show needs very little brain power and brings the same result as giving no care to physical exercise. Your brain will become weak just as your muscles do,if you watch TV, choose something educational and full of information.
Travel
Traveling to a new country forces you to see and do things in a new way, making your brains more active.
Learning a new language
A new language learner usually uses different learning methods. Learning a language sharpens your brain and helps you prevent memory problems in later years.
Master a new subject
Each week, choose an animal, a bird or a fish, and read everything you can about it. Go on learning unitl you become an expert on the subject.
Use your non-dominant hand
If you are right-handed,use your left hand for everyday activities, or use your right hand if you are left-handed. Doing familiar things in a new way will cause your brain to create new neural networks.
Read often
As you read, take the time to look up people or places that aren’t familiar. Reading can enlarge your vocabulary if you search for words and expressions that you don’t know.
Calculate while you shop
As you put things in your shopping bag, total everything in your head. See how close you get to the actual total.
Play video games
Studies have found that some video games force you to use critical decision-making skills and can even improve students’ math grades.
So get into the habit of challenging your brain, and make yourself smarter!

In a small town in France, there was a farmer who lived alone. Every day, he 　 41 　 a pound of butter to his neighbour, who was a baker（面包师）. One day the baker decided to 　42 　 the butter to see if he was getting a pound. After he weighed it, he found that he wasn’t. The baker then took 　 43 　farmer to the judge(法官).

The judge asked the farmer if he had any 44 to weigh the butter. The farmer replied, “I’m so 　 45 　that I do not have enough 　 46 　to buy anything to weigh it, 　 47 　 I do have a kind of scale(天平).” The judge asked, “Then how do you weigh the butter?” The farmer replied, “Before the baker started buying butter from 　 48 　, I have bought bread from him. So now every time when I bring home the 　 49 　from the baker, I put it on the scale and give him the butter the same weight.

We 　 50 　what we give to others in life. 　 51 　you take action, ask yourself this 　 52 　, “ Am I honest?”

Honesty or dishonesty can become a 　 53 　. Some dishonest people can lie without a 　 54 　 face. Others lie so much that do not even 　 55 　 what the truth is any more. But who is it bad for? In fact, those who lie will hurt themselves by their own dishonest behaviour.
