Here is an astonishing and significant fact：Mental work alone can’t make us tire. It sounds absurd．But a few years ago, scientists tried to find out how long the human brain could labor without reaching a stage of fatigue(疲劳). To the amazement of these scientists, they discovered that blood passing through the brain, when it is active, shows no fatigue at all!
If we took a drop of blood from a day laborer, we would find it full of fatigue toxins (霉素) and fatigue products. But if we took blood from the brain of an Albert Einstein, it would show no fatigue toxins at the end of the day.
So far as the brain is concerned, it can work as well and swiftly at the end of eight or even twelve hours of effort as at the beginning. The brain is totally tireless. So what makes us tired?
Some scientists declare that most of our fatigue comes from our mental and emotional (情绪的)attitudes. One of England’s most outstanding scientists, J. A. Hadfield, says, “The greater part of the fatigue from which we suffer is of mental origin. In fact, fatigue of purely physical origin is rare. ”Dr. Brill, a famous American scientist, goes even further, He declares, “One hundred percent of the fatigue of sitting worker in good health is due to emotional problems.”
What kinds of emotions make sitting workers tired? Joy? Satisfaction? No! A feeling of being bored, anger, anxiety, tenseness, worry, a feeling of not being appreciated— those are the emotions t hat tire sitting workers. Hard work by itself seldom causes fatigue. We get tired because our emotions produce nervousness in the body.
1.What surprised the scientists a few years ago?
A. Fatigue toxins could hardly be found in a laborer’s blood
B. Albert Einstein didn’t feel worn after a day’s work
C. The brain could work for many hours without fatigue
D. A mental worker’s blood was filled with fatigue toxins
2.According to the author, which of the following can make sitting workers tired?
A. Challenging mental work B. Unpleasant emotions
C. Endless tasks D. Physical labor
3.What’s the author’s attitude towards the scientists’ idea?
A. He agrees with them B. He doubts them
C. He argues against them D. He hesitates to accept them

Everybody in this world is different from one another. But do you know that understanding differences can help you better manage your money?
As we grow up, we gradually develop a set of our own values or beliefs. These are influenced by society, our family, the education we receive and so on. Once this value system is set up, it’s not easy to change later in life.
Financial experts say that everyone also has their own belief of how to manage their finances. This is the part of our value system and it has a great effect on the way we look after our money. According to our different values, experts put us in three categories. They are: the ant, the cricket and the snail.
The ant --work first
Just like ants who work heart and soul in summer in order to store food for winter, these people don’t care about enjoying the moment. They work very hard and save money they earn so that they can enjoy life when they get old and retire. The ant loves to save but they could make more out of their money if they were willing to invest in some funds and stocks with low risk.
The cricket（蟋蟀）--fun first
The cricket wants to enjoy everything now and doesn’t think too much about the future. They even borrow money when they really want something. Many young people now belong to this group. These people have little savings(存款). When they get old, they might have problems. They should learn to save and buy insurance.
The snail (蜗牛)--living under pressure
The snail refers to people who make life difficult for themselves. They take big long-term loans（贷款） from the bank in order to buy things such as luxury houses. They are happy to take big loans even though they are not sure if they can afford it. This can cause problems in the future. They should plan more carefully.
1.The ant refers to people who ________.
A. Work very hard in winter in order to store food for summer.
B. Could make more money if they worked harder
C. Save money they earn for their later life when they get old and retire
D. Only care about enjoying the moment by working very hard
2.The crickets borrow money because _________.
A. They would like to enjoy everything now
B. They are young
C. They think they have no future
D. They get old and have problems.
3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the last paragraph?
A. The snails enjoy life because they have luxury houses.
B. The snails live under pressure and they may have problems in the future.
C. The snails will take more loans if they realize that they can afford it.
D. The snails take big long-term loans because the interest for the long-term loans is low.
4.What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A. To make fun of the three kinds of foolish people.
B. To make us understand the differences and manage our money better.
C. To make us understand we should spend our own money.
D. To state that we are the same as animals.
