【题目】 Do you know where J.K. Rowling wrote the Harry Potter books? She wrote the first books in a coffee shop. Was it because she felt more creative when working there? The answer might be yes!
Scientists from the University of Illinois found that moderate (适度的) noise can make people more creative, the New York Times reported.
Scientists did tests on students. They divided them into four groups. They then asked the students to do certain tasks involving creative thinking. But each group did the task with different volumes (音量) of background noise.
They found that students did best when working under moderate noise —70 decibels (分贝). This is about the same volume of background noise in a cafe. Students did worse in low noise (50 db). This is the volume of a quiet room. They did the poorest when in a high-noise (85 db) environment. This is the noise level in a factory.
Moderate noise can distract (分心) people just enough so that they think more creatively. “It helps you think outside the box,” Raci Mehta, a lead researcher in the study, said to the Business Standard.
On the one hand, working in a very quiet place can strengthen our focus. But it also stops us from thinking abstractly (抽象地).
“This is why if you are too focused on a problem and you can’t solve it,” said Mehta, “You leave it for some time and then come back to it and you get the solution.”
However, the scientists said that when you need to do detailed things, like proofreading (校对) a paper, a quiet place is better than a noisy one.
【1】What can we tell from the first paragraph?
A.J.K. Rowling likes drinking coffee.B.Drinking coffee helps people become creative.
C.The best novels are born in coffee shops.D.Moderate noise makes people creative.
【2】The underlined word “involving” in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by the word “________”.
A.referring toB.includingC.in order toD.even
【3】Which volume of background noise helps students do the best at creative tasks?
A.85 db.B.70 db.C.50 db.D.0 db.
【4】Which of the following is TRUE when working in a very quiet place?
A.It can help people think outside the box.B.It can make people think abstractly.
C.It can help people find the solution easily.D.It can help people focus on their work.
【5】What is the main idea of the story?
A.How to work under a moderate noise level.
B.Why J. K. Rowling likes to write stories in a coffee shop.
C.Why moderate noise is good for creative thinking.
D.How scientists tested students’ learning abilities.

【题目】 The need for something that can solve the problems in our daily lives often leads to new and interesting inventions. Here are some examples of inventions that were born as solutions to common daily problems.
Earle Dickson noticed that his wife often burned or cut herself accidentally while working in the kitchen. She would then need his help to put bandages on the wounds. Since Dickson couldn’t always be there to help her, he invented a bandage that she could easily deal with herself. Sold under the brand name Brand-Aid, these bandages are now used for many types of minor (not serious) cut.
Then there was Bette Nesmith Graham, a secretary who wanted a simple way to correct her typing mistakes. One day, as she was watching painters use touch -up paint to a wall, it struck her that the same way could be used on paper. She mixed a white paint and used a small brush to apply it to her work. This small bottle of paint with brush finally came to be known as Liquid Paper.
In some cases, though, people invent things for one purpose but end up using them for another. Take tea bags, for example. In 1908, a New York tea seller named Thomas Sullivan came up with the idea of creating small gifts for customers by putting the unopened bags. Customers are supposed to take out the tea leaves from each bag before boiling a pot of tea. However, some people misunderstood began putting the unopened bags into hot water, and the custom of using tea bag was born.
Sometimes inventions are used for their original purposes. Other times they end up being used for something completely different. Either way, they make our lives a whole lot better.
【1】How many inventions are mentioned in the passage?
A.2B.3C.4D.5
【2】How was the custom of using tea bags born?
A.It was born from a misunderstanding.
B.It was born from a need to take out tea leaves.
C.It was born from a new creative idea to make tea.
D.It was born from a creative tea trade between countries.
【3】The underlined word “original” in the las paragraph is closest in meaning to ________.
A.livingB.firstC.usefulD.opposite
【4】Which of the following is correct according to the article?
A.The invention of Brand-Aids came from an unexpected accident.
B.Liquid Paper was invented by a secretary to solve her kitchen problem.
C.Liquid Paper invented by a secretary was used to correct typewriting.
D.Thomas Sullivan was the first person to sell tea in the United States.

【题目】 A few days ago, my pet dog died. But before you feel too sorry for me or my dog, you should know that Matty-we named her after the famous baseball player Christy “Matty”. Mathewson-was about 17 years old. She lived a long, happy life before she got so sick that we had to put her to sleep.
I have to say that when we first saw Matty, I did not want a pet. But Matty turned out(结果是) to be a wonderful dog. Matty was a big part of our family life for years.
That’s a good lesson. Sometimes things don’t turn out the way you thought they would. They turn out better. See if this sounds familiar to you. You join a sports team. After some practice or games, you find you don’t like the team as much as you thought you would. Maybe you don’t like the coach or the other kids. Or perhaps you find out you’re not going to be the next LeBron James or Mia Hamm. You want to give up, but your mum and dad say you have to at least finish the season. You don’t want to, but you stay with the team. And, surprise: Things get better. You make a friend or make a few good plays. Maybe the coach tells you you’re going to be a good player.
Most kids and adults (成年人) are pretty sure they know exactly what they want. For example, I was positive years ago that I didn’t want a dog. But life is full of surprises. We change with time. That’s why it’s important for us to try new foods, new hobbies and new sports.
【1】Mia Hamm is probably a(n)________.
A.movie starB.sports starC.animal doctorD.school teacher
【2】The underlined word “positive” in the last paragraph means “________” in Chinese.
A.sorryB.luckyC.disappointedD.certain
【3】Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A.Matty was an important part of the writer’s family.
B.The writer didn’t want Matty when he first saw her.
C.The writer learned a lesson from his pet dog.
D.Most kids know exactly what they are good at.
【4】By telling the story of his dog, the writer wants us to________.
A.have a petB.try new thingsC.join a sports teamD.care our pet
