Tales of the unexplained李仕才一、閱讀理解。閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。Can exercise during childhood protect you against memory loss many decades later? Exercise early in life seems to have lifelong benefits for the brain，in rats at least.“This is an animal study，but it shows that physical activity at a young age is very importantnot just for physical development，but for the whole lifelong track of cognitive(認(rèn)知的)development during ageing，”says Martin Wojtowicz of the University of Toronto，Canada. “In humans，it may delay the appearance of Alzheimer's disease(阿爾茨海默病)，possibly to the point of preventing it.”Wojtowicz's team divided 80 young male rats into two equal groups，and placed running wheels in the cages of one group for a period of six weeks.Around four months laterwhen the rats had reached middle agethe team taught all the rats to connect an electric shock with being in a specific box.When placed in the box，they froze with fear.Two weeks later，the team tested the rats in three situations：exactly the same box in the same room，the same box with the room arranged differently，and a completely different box in a different room.The rats without access to a running wheel when they were young now froze the same percentage of times in each of these situations，suggesting they couldn't remember which one was dangerous.But those that had been able to run in their youth froze 40 to 50 percent less in both changed box settings.“The results suggest the amount of physical activity when we're young，at least for rats，has influence on the brain and cognitive healthin the form of better memorieswhen we're older，” says Arthur Kramer of Northeastern University in Boston，who has found that，in humans，exercise promotes the growth of new brain cells.1The study shows that _.Aphysical activity is important for physical healthBusing the running wheels is of benefit to the rats' growthCphysical activity can prevent humans' Alzheimer's diseaseDthe more exercise a rat has when young，the better memory it will possess when older2How are Paragraph 3 and 4 mainly developed?ABy analyzing causes.BBy giving an example.CBy describing the process.DBy showing differences.3What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?AExercise.BDevelopment.CBenefit.
