题目列表(包括答案和解析)

阅读下列短文, 从所给的四个选项中, 选出最佳答案。  

      If you ask some people, "How did you learn English so well?" You may get a surprising answer "In my sleep."   These are people who have taken part in one of recent experiments   to test "Learn-While-Sleep" methods which are now being tried in several countries, and with several subjects, of which English is only one. Specialists say that this "sleep-study" method speeds language learning greatly. They say that the average person can learn two or three times as much during sleep as in the same period during the day—and this does not affect his rest in any way. A word of warning, however: sleep teaching will only strengthen in your mind what you have studied already while you are awake. In an experiment, lessons were broadcast over the radio, Each lesson lasted twelve hours—from 8 p.m. to 8 a.m. The first three hours of English grammar and vocabulary were given with the student awake. At 11 p.m. a lullaby (催眠曲)was broadcast to send the student to sleep and for the next three hours the radio whispered the lesson again into   his ears. At 2 a.m. a sharp noise was sent over the radio to wake the sleeping student up for a few minutes to review the lesson. The soft songs sent him back to rest again while the radio went on. At 5 a.m. his sleep ended and he had to get through the lesson again for three   hours before breakfast.  

     (1) In the experiments to test "Learn-While-Sleep" _______.

  

[  ]

A. only English is tried   B. not only English is tried     

C. many subjects are tried  D. only languages are tried     

(2) Compared with other methods, the "Learn-While-Sleep" is _____.

  

[  ]

A. boring  B. simple  C. quicker  D. better

  It’s a Saturday night-what is a group of friends to do?They could go out to a bar or pub, they could enjoy a good meal or they could go to a club.That’s what may have happened a few years ago.However, new research has shown that three times as many Britons would rather stay in and cook a meal for friends than have a wild night out.These people are being described as the Stay Home and Entertain Friends(SHEF)brigade(队,组).

  Mark is an IT manager from Manchester and could be described as a SHEF.“I like to socialize with my friends, but going out every weekend can be really expensive.We’ve found another choice; head to the local pub for one or two drinks, then go back to one of our homes for food, drink and some music.Much less trouble and more fun than going into the city center and struggling to get a taxi at 2 a.m!”

  The survey also found that twice as many men as women associated romance with home-cooked, candlelit dinners with their partners, claming that this was a perfect way for a great Saturday night.

  According to another study by insurance company More Than, people are also turning to their homes as a source of entertainment and a shelter from the stress of modern living.The new“staying in”culture is driving increased spending on home improvement and entertainments systems within the home.Many people in the UK have set up home cinemas with plasma screen(等离子屏幕)televisions, satellite televisions and DVD players.

  Maybe, soon the popularity of this trend of staying in will decline and going out will become the new staying in!
