    While some areas of the brain are hard-wired from birth or early childhood, other areas — especially in the cerebral cortex (大脑皮层), which【B2】________higher cognitive powers like language and thought — can be, to a remarkable extent, rewired as we grow older. In fact, the brain has an【B3】________ability to rebound from damage. As a physician who treats patients with neurological conditions, I see this happen all the time.
    One does not have to be blind or deaf to tap into the brain’s mysterious and【B4】________power to learn, adapt and grow.

That the brain is capable of such【B6】________adaptation raises deep questions. To what extent are we shaped by, and to what degree do we shape, our own brains? And can the brain’s ability to change【B7】________give us greater cognitive powers? The【B8】________of many people suggest that it can..
    Whether it is by learning a new language or simply thinking about an old problem in a new way, all of us can find ways to stimulate our brains to grow, in the coming year and those to follow. Just as physical activity【B9】________maintaining a healthy body, a healthy brain is also essential to【B10】________fitness.
