Dear Diary,

Here I am in the middle of a city, 350 miles far away from our farmhouse. Do you want to know why we move last week? Dad lost his job, and as Mom explained, “He is lucky to find other one.” His new job meant I had to say goodbye to my classmate, my school and just everything else I love in the world. To make things bad, now I have to share a room to my younger sister, Maggie. Tomorrow is first day of school. I am very tiring, but I know I’ll never fall asleep.

Good night or remember, you, dear diary, is my only souvenir of my past life and my only friend.

Yours,

Rosemary

Some time ago, I discovered a whole lot of antique(古董) shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the char that had a broken leg. I didn’t think there would be any difficulty in getting it mended. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception. I was quite wrong. The man wouldn’t even look at my chair.

The second shop, although slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and the fourth — so I thought that my approach must be wrong.

I went into the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper, “Would you like to buy a chair?” He looked it over carefully and said, “Yes. How much do you want do it, sir?” “Twenty pounds,” I said. “Ok,” he said, “I’ll give you twenty pounds.” “It has a slightly broken leg,” I said. “Yes, I saw that; it’s nothing.”

Everything was going according to the plan and I was getting excited. “What will you do with it?” I asked. “Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done.” “I’ll buy it,” I said. “What do you mean? You’ve just sold it to me.” he said. “Yes, I know but I’ve changed my mind. I’m sorry. I’ll give you twenty-seven pounds for it.” “You must be crazy,” he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped. “I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair.” “You’re right.” I said. “And what would you have done if I had walked in and said, ‘Would you mend this chair for me?’” “I wouldn’t have agreed to do it,” he said. “We don’t do repairs, not enough in it and too much trouble. But I’ll mend this for you, shall we say for five pounds?” He was a very nice man and was greatly amused by the whole thing.

1.We can learn from the text that in the first shop the writer ________.

A. was rather impolite

B. was warmly welcomed

C. asked the shopkeeper to buy his chair

D. asked the shopkeeper to repair his chair

2.Why did the writer said “Would you like to buy a chair?” in the fifth shop?

A. He was sure that he won’t be able to have the chair repaired.

B. He wanted to make some money by selling the chair.

C. He had a plan in mind about how to get his chair mended.

D. He planned to get a new chair after selling the broken one.

3.The expression “the penny dropped” in the last paragraph means the shopkeeper ________.

A. changed his mind

B. accepted the offer

C. saw the writer’s purpose

D. decided to help the writer

4.How much will the writer pay?

A. £5 B. £7 C. £20 D. £27

Scientists found that sleeping considerably improves our creativity. After taking a nap people are able to think faster and put more imagination into their thinking. Besides, if we dream, the thinking abilities are improved even more.

Researchers consider that sleeping on a problem in most cases leads to elucidation(解释). They say when a person enters a phase called Rapid Eye Movement (REM) during sleep, it increases the effect. Such phase takes place right before we awake and according to scientists it helps our brain make links between unrelated subjects.

In the study, led by Professor Sara Mednick, scientists made a conclusion that the REM was “important for assimilating(消化) new information into past experience” in order to find solutions to creative problems.

Prof. Mednick is a psychiatrist at the University of California. Her study involved the analysis of 77 adults. Each participant was given several word-associated creative tasks. All tasks were given in the morning, with participants being shown a number of groups of 3 words, for example: cookie, heart and sixteen. They were asked to come up with a word that would be associated with all three given terms—like sweet. Sometime later, after some participants were allowed to sleep, they were asked to perform the same tasks and some new ones. It is worth mentioning that while some people slept, researchers used brain scans to see the type of sleep each participant entered.

When given the same tasks, participants, who took a nap, were able to give more varied solutions, some of which were much better than they gave earlier. But when given new tasks, researchers found that those who entered REM sleep had a 40 percent better result compared to the performance they showed in the morning.

1.What does “it” refer to in the second paragraph?

A. The effect.B. REM.C. Sleep.D. A problem.

2.Why do the researchers study the REM?

A. Because REM takes place just after you sleep.

B. Because REM can store more information.

C. Because REM can help find creative solutions

D. Because REM can make a creative invention.

3.What can we know from this passage?

A. Taking a short nap is good for your thinking during the day.

B. Sleeping has three processes which is good for creativity.

C. Each adult was allowed to sleep after the task was given.

D. REM is a process taking place right after we awake when we nap.

4.The important stage in the study is________.

A. to think of a creative word

B. to show a group of 3 words

C. to give participants time to think

D. to let some participants sleep for a while
