Young girls at high risk for depression appear to have a malfunctioning reward system in their brains, a new study suggests. The finding comes from research that (1) a high-risk group of 13 girls, aged 10 to 14, who were not depressed but had mothers who (2) recurrent depression and a low-risk group of 13 girls with no (3) or family history of depression. Both groups were given MRI brain (4) while completing a task that could (5) either reward or punishment.
(6) with girls in the low-risk group, those in the high-risk group had (7) neural responses during both anticipation and receipt of the reward. (8) , the high-risk girls showed no (9) in an area of the brain called the dorsal anterior cingulated cortex (背侧前扣带皮质), believed to play a role in (10) past experiences to assist learning.
The high-risk girls did have greater activation of this brain area (11) receiving punishment, compared with the other girls. The researchers said that this suggests that high-risk girls have easier time (12) information about loss and punishment than information about reward and pleasure.
"Considered together with reduced activation in the striatal (纹状体的) areas commonly observed (13) reward, it seems that the reward-processing system is critically (14) in daughters who are at elevated risk for depression, (15) they have not yet experienced a depressive (16) ," wrote Ian H. Gotlib, of Stanford University, and his colleagues. " (17) , longitudinal studies are needed to determine whether the anomalous activations (18) in this study during the processing of (19) and losses are associated with the (20) onset of depression," they concluded. The study was published in the April of the Archives of General Psychiatry.

In 1924 American National Research Council sent two engineer to supervise a series of experiments at a telephone-parts factory called the Hawthorne Plant near Chicago. It hoped they would learn how stop-floor lighting (1) workers productivity. Instead, the studies ended (2) giving their name to the "Hawthorne effect", the extremely influential idea that the very (3) of being experimented upon changed subjects’ behavior. ?
The idea arose because of the (4) behavior of the women in the plant. According to (5) of the experiments, their hourly output rose when lighting was increased, but also when it was dimmed. It did not (6) what was done in the experiment; (7) something was changed, productivity rose. A(n) (8) that they were being experimented upon seemed to be (9) to alter workers’ behavior (10) itself. ?
After several decades, the same data were(11) to econometric the analysis. Hawthorne experiments has another surprise store (12) the descriptions on record, no systematic {(13) was found that levels of productivity were related to changes in lighting.
It turns out that peculiar way of conducting the experiments may have led to (14) interpretation of what happened. (15) , lighting was always changed on a Sunday. When work started again on Monday, output (16) rose compared with the previous Saturday and (17) to rise for the next couple of days. (18) , a comparison with data for weeks when there was no experimentation showed that output always went up on Monday, workers (19) to be diligent for the first few days of the week in any case, before (20) a plateau and then slackening off. This suggests that the alleged "Hawthorne effect" is hard to pin down.

People in different countries use different types of money: yuan in China, pesos in Mexico, pounds in the United Kingdom, (51) in the United States, Australia and New Zealand. They may use different currencies, but these countries, and probably all countries, still have one thing (52) : Germs on the banknotes.
Scientists have been studying the germs on money for well over 2, 100 years. (53) the turn of the 20th century, some researchers began to suspect that germs living on money could spread disease.
Most studies of germy money have looked at the germs on the currency within one country. In a new study, Frank Vriesekoop and other researchers compared the germ (54) found on bills of different countries.
Vriesekoop is a microbiologist at the University of Ballarat in Australia. He led the study, which (55) the germ populations found on money gathered from 10 nations. The scientists studied 1, 280 banknotes (56) ; all came from places where people buy food, like supermarkets, street vendors and cafes, because those businesses often (57) cash.
Overall, the Australian dollars hosted the fewest live bacteria—-no more than 10 per square centimeter. Chinese yuan had the most—about 100 per square centimeter. Most of the germs on money probably would not (58) harm.
What we call "paper money" usually isn’t made (59) paper. The U. S. dollar, for example, is printed on fabric that is mostly cotton Different countries may use different materials to print their money. Some of the currencies studied by Vriesekoop and his team, such as the American dollar, were made from cotton. (60) were made from polymers.
The three currencies with (61) numbers of bacteria were all printed on polymers. They included the Australian dollar, the New Zealand dollar and some Mexican pesos.
The other currencies were printed on fabric made mostly of cotton. Fewer germs lived on the polymer notes. This connection suggests (62) germs have a harder time staying alive on polymer surfaces. Scientists need to do more studies to understand how germs live on money and (63) or not we need to be concerned. Vriesekoop is now starting a study that will compare the amounts of time bacteria can stay alive on different types of bills.
Whatever Vriesekoop finds, the fact (64) : Paper money harbors germs. We should wash our hands after touching it; (65) , you never know where your money’s been. Or what’s living on it.
