Mass media are tools of communication.Mass media allow us to record and pass information rapidly to a large，scattered(分散的)audience.They extend our ability to talk to each other by helping us overcome barriers caused by time and space.
There are various ways in which mass media make daily life easier for us.
First,they inform and help us keep a watch on our world. They gather and pass on information we would be unlikely or unable to get on our own.
Second，mass media help us to arrange our time and life. What we talk about and what we think about are greatly influenced by the media.When people get together，they tend to talk about certain happenings in the newspapers or on TV.Because we are exposed(暴露)to different points of view through different kinds of media every day，we are able to evaluate(评价)all sides of a certain issue.
Third,the media are used to persuade people. A good example is advertising through the media.Newspapers，magazines and TV are filled with all kinds of colorful，persuasive advertisements.Though many advertising may not say openly that they want you to buy a certain product，they describe their products in such a way that you may want to buy them.
Fourth,the media also entertain. All of the media make some efforts to entertain their audience.For instance，even though the newspaper is primarily a medium of information，it also contains entertainment features(特征)．Television，motion pictures，fiction books and some radio stations and magazines are devoted mainly to entertainment.It is estimated that in the future，the entertainment function of mass media will become even more important than it is now.

Why do we dream？It's a question researchers have been studying for years. Now new research suggests that some dreams may result from the brain's effort to keep learning, even as we sleep.
In a study in Boston, 100 volunteers were trained for an hour on a maze (迷宫)．They tried to find their way through the difficult puzzle as quickly as possible. Then half of the volunteers were allowed to sleep for 90 minutes. The other half stayed awake, reading or relaxing. The ones who slept were asked to describe their dreams when they woke up.
After the rest, the volunteers were asked again to solve the maze. Those who hadn't slept showed no improvement or did even worse after the break. Sleepers who didn't report any maze related dreams did better but showed only a little improvement. However, four nap-takers who reported dreaming about the maze showed a surprising improvement. They scored 10 times higher after sleeping and dreaming about the maze.
Even though the number of dreamers was small, the researchers noted that the gap in learning between the dreamers and non-dreamers was so wide that the finding was significant (有意义的)．
The dreamers had all performed poorly on the test before dreaming about it. That suggests that struggling with a task might be the trigger that leads the sleeping brain to focus on it and work on how to deal with it.
“It's almost as if your brain is going through everything that happened today，”Dr Stickgold，a scientist at Harvard Medical School, said. “The things you're obsessed (迷住) with are the ones that your brain forces you to continue to do with.”
1.What's the best title for this passage?
A．Learning while you dreamB．What dreams stand for
C．Dream a good dreamD．Dreams and health
2.What were the volunteers asked to do after the rest?
A．To work on a new maze.
B．To continue to do the maze.
C．To talk with each other about their dreams.
D．To tell what they thought about the maze.
3.According to the study, which group showed the greatest improvement?
A．Those who didn't sleep.
B．Those who slept but didn't dream.
C．Those who dreamed about the maze while sleeping.
D．Those who thought about the maze before falling asleep.
4.The underlined word “trigger” in Paragraph 5 probably means “________”.
A．chanceB．causeC．wayD．idea
