考题 A dream is one kind of experience.It seems as real as something that actually happens; in it the dreamer takes actions and reacts.During dreams the body is asleep but the thinking part of the brain is wide awake.In fact, it is more active than it sometimes is when the body is awake.One group of researchers decided to see what would happen if they stopped people from dreaming.As soon as the electroencephalograph (脑电图仪) registered a dream pattern, researchers woke the dreamer.They did this all night for several nights, every time the person started to dream.The experiment revealed that people who were unable to dream became nervous, easily upset, and hungrier.As soon as they were able to sleep without interruptions they lost their nervousness and became normal again; however, they then had more dreams than usual.It was as if they were catching up on their dreams.To check these findings, the researchers carried on a control experiment.Again they woke people during the night, but during non-dreaming periods.These people did not change their daytime behavior.And when they were allowed to sleep without interruptions (打断), the number of their dreams did not increase.Experiments like these have caused scientists to ask if dreams serve a purpose.Researchers know, for example, that some people who go for days without sleep will suffer from hallucinations (幻觉).Certain people even begin to show signs of mental illness.Some researchers believe that people become this way because they cannot have their usual numbers of dreams.According to this theory dreaming helps people to lead normal lives.1).This passage is mainly about ________.A.people’s need for dreamsB.the damage dreams do to people’s healthC.dreams and realitiesD.the relationship between dreams and diseases2).According to the passage, dreams ________ .A.are considered to be people’s real experiencesB.help cure people of nervousness and mental illnessC.happen in the thinking part of the brainD.cannot go on as before after the dreamer is woken3).People who slept with interrupted dreams showed signs of the following sufferings EXCEPT________ .A.nervousnessB.anxietyC.hungerD.sleepiness4).When people were woken during non-dreaming periods, they ________.A.suffered from hallucinationsB.felt upset and nervousC.had more dreams than usualD.remained normal in their daytime behavior5).The sentence “It was as if they were catching up on their dreams” in Para.3 probably means ________.A.they seemed to do as their dreams dad told them toB.they seemed to make up for the losses of dreamsC.they seemed to dream less because of the interruptionsD.they seemed to sleep more after the interruptions

考题 Passage FourIf you are like most people, your intelligence varies from season to season. You are probably a lot sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of year. A noted scientist, Ells- worth Huntington (1876-1947) concluded from other men's work and his own among peoples in different climates that climate and: temperature have a definite effect on our mental abilities.He found that cool weather is much more favorable for creative thinking than summer heat is. This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in the summer than they are during the rest of the year. It does mean, however, that mental, abilities of large numbers of people tend to be lowest in the summer.Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking. One reason may be that in the spring man's mental abilities are affected by the same factors that bring about great changes in all nature.Fall is the next best season, then winter. As for summer, it seems to be a good time to take a long vacation from thinking!46. According to the passage, your mental ability ______.A. depends on your attitude towards people in different time of the yearB. changes for the worst when you dislike most people in hot seasonC. will be best in winter and worst in summer if you want to be creativeD. turns to be more powerful in spring than in any of the other seasons

考题 It is surprising that eating three meals a day—breakfast, lunch and dinner—has been a custom only since 1890. Before this time, people only had two meals a day—breakfast and dinner. In the 16th century, breakfast was only to break one’s fast(开戒, 即开始吃东西). But 200 years later it had become a large meal, not just for family, but for numbers of guests as well. It was a social event. It began at 10 a.m. and lasted until 1 p.m. Then breakfast began to be less popular. It became, instead, a lighter meal and was taken at much earlier hour. By 1850 it had been pushed back to 8 a.m. and became a family meal. Dinner, however, went the other way. In the 16th century it was eaten at 11 a.m. Years later, it moved to the early afternoon, then to 5 p.m. By 1850 dinner time had reached 7 p.m. Lunch is a recent idea. It first appeared as a snack to fill the gap between breakfast and dinner.1.People did not have lunch ______.A.until 1890B.after 1890C.since 1890 Dby 18902.“Dinner, however, went the other way” means “______”.A.dinner didn’t go there with breakfastB.dinner took the same way as breakfastC.dinner got laterD.dinner is the same with breakfast3.Breakfast has been a family meal since the ______ century.A.17thB.18thC.16thD.19th4.The passage is mostly concerned with ______.A.what people eat for breakfastB.what people eat for dinnerC.the history of supperD.the history of the three meals5.The passage leads us to believe that ______.A.our custom of meals is based on an English customB.before 1890 people didn’t eat three meals a dayC.breakfast is the most important meal for usD.three meals a day is a long tradition

考题 In the US,people prefer waiting for a table to sitting with people they don't know.This means a hostess may not seat a small group until a small table is available,even if a large one is.If you are sitting at a table with people you don't know,it is impolite to light up a cigarette without first asking if it will disturb them. At American restaurants and coffee shops you are usually served tap water before you order.You may find the bread and butter is free,and if you order coffee,you may get a free refill.

Servings in restaurants are often large,too large for many people.If you can't finish your meal but would like to enjoy the food later,ask your waitress or waiter for a"doggie bag".It may have a picture of a dog on it,but everybody knows you are taking food for yourself. Supper and dinner are both words for the evening meal.Some people have"Sunday dinner".This is an especially big noon meal. Tips are not usually added to the check.They are not included in the price of the meal,either.A tip of about 15%is expected and you should leave it on the table when you leave.In some restaurants,a check is brought on a plate and you put your money there.Then the waiter or waitress brings you your change. Sunday dinner is~A.a dinner in the evening B.a big noon meal C.a big meal on Sunday D.a supper on Sunday

考题 Around the world more and more people are taking part in dangerous sports and activities.Of course,there have always been people who have looked for adventure--those who have climbed the highest mountains,explored(探险)unknown parts of the world or sailed in small boats across the greatest oceans.Now,however,there are people who seek(寻找)an immediate thrill(令人激动的事情)from a risky activity which may only last a few minutes or even seconds. I?would consider bungee(蹦极)jumping to be a good example of such an aetwity.You jump?from a high place(perhaps a bridge or a hot air balloon)200 metres above the ground with an elas-tic(弹性的)rope tied to your ankles.You fall at up to 150 kilometres an hour until the rope stops you from hitting the ground.It is estimated that 2 million people around the world have now tried bungee jumping.Other activities which most people would say are as risky as bungee jumping involve(包括)jumping from tall buildings and diving into the sea from the top of high cliffs. Why do people take part in such activities as these?Some psychologists(心理学家)suggestthat it is because life in modern societies has become safe and borin9.Not very long ago,people’s lives were constantly under threat.They had to go out and hunt for food,diseases could not easily be cured,and life was a continuous battle for survival. Nowadays,according to many people,life offers little excitement.They live and work in?comparatively safe environments;they buy food in shops;and there are doctors and hospitals to look?after them if they become ill.The answer for some of these people is to seek danger in activities such?as bungee jumping. People probably take part in dangerous sports nowadays because__________.A.they have a lot of free time B.they can go to hospital if they are injured C.their lives lack excitement D.they no longer need to hunt for food
