The Meaning of Dreams
Sleep and dreams have interested people for centuries. Scientists are learning more about sleep, but they still know very little about why we dream.
1. First, we have most of our dreams during REM(rapid eye movement)sleep. At this time, the brain is very active. Second, everyone dreams, even if we can't remember doing so when we awaken. 2. While we are sleep, it works more slowly and sometimes puts our thoughts and memories together in strange ways.
3. . Some believe that our dreams are associated with thoughts and feelings that we experience while we are awake. Many dream researchers think that a dream about death, for example, is really about an important life change. 4. . Dreams about a car or travel often represent (代表) feelings about your own life. Dreams about teeth—especially broken or loose ones—may indicate(预示) stress or fear. Dreams in which you are flying often represent freedom or escape.
Researchers think people in our dreams can tell us something about ourselves. If the person in the dream was yelling, for example, maybe you are angry. 5. . There is still a lot about dreaming that we do not understand. By learning more about our dreams, we may learn more about ourselves.
A. Dreams may be more important than sleep.
B. Scientists do not know for certain why we dream.
C. If he or she was scared then maybe you are afraid of something.
D. Modern research can tell us some important things about dreams.
E. There are three things you should pay attention to have a sweet dream.
F. Finally, a part of our brain helps us to understand daily experience we have.
G. Dreams about telephones are thought to be about giving or receiving messages.

While astronauts in space get to do many exciting things, they miss out on ordinary things that we will take for granted—being able to walk on firm ground, hanging out with family and digging into a slice of hot steaming pizza. Though not much can be done about the first two things, there may soon be a solution to the third one, thanks to this cool 3-D pizza printer.
About a year ago, NASA offered $125,000 to Anjan Contractor, a 3-D technology expert, to build a device that would allow astronauts to make pizza on demand. The mechanical engineer promised that his invention would produce pies in large quantities that looked, tasted and even smelled like pizza made in common ovens.
Late last year, the engineer presented a video of his first prototype(原型) that begins by creating a single slice of dough that is cooked and printed at the same time. Then comes the tomato sauce--a mix of tomato powder, oil and water and finally, a protein slice that resembles cheese. While the video doesn't show the baking process, the inventor says that once the pizza is printed, it can be ready to be consumed in 7 seconds.
While the pie in the video looks delicious enough to attract any pizza lover, Anjan Contractor is far from ready for astronauts. That's because he still has to find a solution to make the food container in the printer last for 30 years. Though that may sound unrealistic ,actually it is not.
Anjan Contractor believes that the only way that is possible is that the water is removed from all the ingredients and then they are reduced to the powder form. This, as you can imagine, will not be so easy. But, while the printer may not be ready for space, it certainly looks ready enough for people on earth. Hopefully, NASA and Contractor will consider selling it to those not fortunate enough to go to Mars !
1.NASA offered $125,000 to Anjan Contractor mainly to ____.
A. create some new type of 3-D printer
B. attract more companies to work for NASA
C. help astronauts in space enjoy fresh pizza one day
D. produce pizza in large quantities to earn great profits
2.The biggest challenge that Anjan Contractor is faced with now is probably that ____
A. he has no money left to go on with his research
B. the pizza doesn't seem appetizing to pizza lovers
C. he has no way to make pizza that can last for thirty years
D. he cannot make the food container last for decades
3.What's the best title of the passage?
A. NASA is trying its best to help astronauts eat better
B. Astronauts may soon be able to enjoy steaming hot pizza
C. NASA is working on making pizza for common people
D. A 3-D pizza printer has been used to make pizza

科目:高中英语 来源:2016届宁夏石嘴山市高三下第二次模拟考试英语试卷(解析版) 题型:阅读理解
There is a large percentage of Asian people in the US. They’re hard working, respectful but strange sometimes. If you don’t understand the culture, you will get some problems with them. Asian people are different from any other cultures if you think you know them, you might want to think again.
How are they different? When it comes to most Asian culture, respect is everything. You can do anything you want but don't disrespect an Asian man. You will get some real consequences afterward and especially if he is your boss. It’s something called “face saving” in the Asian culture. It’s ridiculous sometimes but it’s their culture. Sometimes their culture can come in between their relationship at work. Asian people might expect a lot of respect from their co-workers when their co-workers just see them as an equal.
Americans are very different from Asian people. If you’re Asian, you might want to understand the American culture and even adapt to their culture if you work with them. It will be easier for you since you’re in their countries. Imagine an American working in China, expecting Chinese co-workers to get along with him when he criticizes them straight out on every single matter in front of everyone. I think they will take him outside and take care of him. It just doesn’t work that way with Asian people.
If you’re an American boss giving your Asian employee a review, you will see that they will have a problem with your negative remarks. They will think that you don’t like them, disrespectful, and want to get rid of them; when in fact, you’re just doing your job. Of course, it’s not fair for you as an American boss but just expect that it can be something that is on your Asian employee’s mind.
1.The Americans can’t get along well with the Asians probably because______.
A. their cultures are different
B. they don’t like each other
C. both of them are too proud
D. they have different political views
2.The underlined phrase “face saving” in Paragraph 2 probably means_____.
A. saving some money for later use
B. making faces to please your boss
C. showing some respect to somebody
D. helping somebody out of trouble
3. From the third paragraph we can know that it is difficult_________.
A. for the Asians to accept the culture in America
B. for the Americans to adapt to the culture in China
C. for people to learn the culture in a foreign country
D. for people to follow the culture in their own country
4.The negative remarks an American boss gives on your work probably mean he/she ____________________.
A. doesn’t like you any longer
B. thinks you are not worth respecting
C. offer you some better advice
D. wants you to improve your work
