20."Mummy,I don't know what to play with."Steve interrupts his mother,who is talking to a friend,for the fourth time."You've got a room full of toys!"his mother says,impatiently.In fact it is thejumble of toys which is to blame for four-year-old Steve's lack of interest in his dolls,cars and stuffed (packed) animals.Each morning he tips out three washing baskets of toys all over his floor,listlessly pulls out something and shortly after is standing at his mother's desk or following her into the kitchen saying:"Mummy,I am bored."
A family therapist (心理醫(yī)生) explains why children lose interest when they have a whole"toy shop"at home:"According to their brain development,little children are not in a position to judge the quality of a variety of things at once.There is always just one favorite toy for the moment.All the rest is left lying about."What can parents do to stop their children from being oversupplied with toys?Under no conditions simply make something disappear without the child's knowledge.If he/she takes no more notice of a toy,a parent can ask if it can be stored or given away.Be warned though the child will always say he/she wants it then!A talk with relatives and friends may also help.Lyn is the mother of four-year-old Jessie,and we like her way.A small set of shelves in her child's room holds the toys and books that are the current (at present) favorites.When it seems to her that her daughter is tired of these toys,they put them away in a box together and select some other toys from a cupboard in another room.The box of"old"toys goes into the cupboard.When her child says she is"bored",they also get something from her cupboard-it may be something she has had for some time but because she hasn't seen it for a while it is almost like a new toy.
Some favorite toys stay out all the time,and there is a collection of dolls which sits in the corner,but in this way Lyn has found that she has fewer toys to put away at the end of the day and her daughter always has something"fresh"to play with.

15.Have you ever noticed what happens to an idea once you express it?Just talking about it or writing it down causes you to make it clear in your own mind.How can you use this to increase your brain power?Start writing.
By putting thoughts into words,you are telling yourself the logic(邏輯)behind what you think,feel,or only partly understand.Often,explaining a thought is the process of understanding.In other words,you increase your brain power by exercising your"explain power."
Try this experiment.Explain how you'll increase your brain power,even if you have no idea how right now.Just start with anything,and create an explanation.For example,start with"I'll learn chess,"or"I'll read an article on the mind every week."Explain how that will help.You'll be surprised how often this becomes a workable plan,and if you actually do this,you'll have a better understanding of your brain from now.
Another benefit of writing is that it helps you remember.Many,if not most,highly productive people are always taking notes.You can try keeping it all in your head,but if you keep a journal of your ideas the next time you're working on a big project,you'll probably have more success.
Want to understand a topic?Write a book about it.That's an extreme example,but if you are learning something new,write a letter to a friend about it,and you will understand it better.Want to invent something?Write an explanation of the problem,why you want to solve it,and why it is worth solving,and you're half-way there.
Writers don't always write because they clearly understand something beforehand.Often,they write about something because they want to understand it.You can do the same.Writing will help bring you to an understanding.Give it a try.
56.What would be the best title for the text?B
A.A Way on How to Write.
B.Increase Your Brain Power through Writing.
C.Brain Power Helps Improve Your Writing.
D.How to Start Your Writing.
57.According to the text,writing can help you a lot in the following ways EXCEPTC.
A.the increase of your brain power   
B.the ability to remember
C.the development of your interest in study   
D.the better understanding of a topic
58.If a writer writes something,it means that he or sheB.
A.has understood it very well          
B.needs to understand it better
C.wants to remember it in his or her mind  
D.is exercising his or her"explain power"
59.The underlined sentence"you're half-way there"in the fifth paragraph implies thatD.
A.you are already successful           
B.you still need to work hard
C.writing can help you walk half way 
D.writing is important to solve problems
60.What's the main purpose of the writer writing the text?A
A.To advise readers to start their writing.
B.To explain the importance of writing.
C.To persuade readers to become writers.
D.To increase readers'brain power.

5.Have you ever remembered something with your nose?Maybe the smell of hot dogs makes you think of being at a baseball game.Or the smell of barbequed meat reminds you of a night around a fire.Scientists know that smells can make people think of powerful memories.Wouldn't it be great to somehow save those memories?
That is exactly what Mark Crames,a businessman making perfumes (香水),is trying to do.His company,Demeter Fragrance,makes more than 200 kinds of perfumes."Imagine every smell in the world as a musical note,"Crames said."We try to join those notes to make a piece of beautiful music."He has made many perfumes and he got the idea from plays,storms and even animals.
Everyday smells mean different things to different people."A perfume called Poison Ivy might make you think of sadness or surprise,"Crames says."But it could make another person think of a great time at summer camp."
Crames produces perfumes using a high-tech method called headspace technology.This month,Crames is making scent for Tootsie Roll and Junior Mints.Not every smell can be easily copied."One of our most needed perfumes is a little dog's breath,"he says."But it is so chemically complicated that it's very hard to get."
What scent would you like to bottle?A zoo?Or grandma's old house?Crames may be able to help you bring back your memories,so all you have to do is have a smell when you want to remember.

A.how to remember things
B.how to make perfumes
C.a(chǎn) businessman with good smell
D.smells can help us remember

12.When young people in the United States gather for fun,there is a good chance that they will soon be dancing.If there are no musicians,they will play records.If there are no records,someone is certain to have a radio.One way or another there will be dancing.
The ways that boys and girls dance will often change every year or two.You may hear them say that the very latest steps are‘in',while last year's steps are‘out'.Each boy and girl takes pride in learning newest things.They feel that this is important to remain popular with their friends.
Years ago the dances of young people were not very different from those of their parents,but high school and college students of today have created their own music and have invented their own dances,thanks to people like Chubby Checker,the Beatles,and Elvis Presley.These musicians helped to make popular an exciting new kind of music that people began to dance to in a different way.
In the late 1950s Chubby Checker started a dance that he called the"twist."The twist,like so many new dances,was lively,and people who performed it used a lot of energy.The word chubby means"a little bit fat,"which is why this singer and dancer called himself Chubby.
After demonstrating his new dance hundreds of times,however,Chubby was no longer chubby.This is one of the advantages.Even if older people do not like the new dances,they must agree that people,get much more exercise from modern dances than they ever got from a waltz.
56.What are three ways to have music for dancing?(no more than 4words)①Musicians; ②Records;、跼adios
57.How often do ways of dancing to rock music change?(no more than 4 words)Every year or two.
58.For what purpose do young people learn the newest dance?(no more than 6 words)
To remain popular with their friends.
59.Why did Chubby Checker become famous?(no more than 6 words)Because he invented a new dance./Because he started the"twist"dance.
60.What is an advantage of modern dancing?(no more than 3 words)Getting more exercise..

9.Complaints(投訴) should be made to a responsible person.Go back to the shop where you bought the goods,taking with you any receipt(收據(jù)) you may have.Ask to see the seller in a large store.In a small store the assistant may also be the owner so you can complain directly.In a chain store,ask to see the manager.If you telephone,ask the name of the pers on who handles your enquiry,otherwise you may never find out who deals with the complaint later.
Even the bravest person finds it difficult to stand up in a group of people to complain,so if you do not want to do it in person,write a letter.Stick to the facts and keep a copy of what you write.At this stage,you should give any receipt number,but you should not need to give receipts or other papers to prove you bought the article.If you are not satisfied with the answer you get,or if you do not get a reply,write to the managing director of the firm,store,or organization.Be sure to keep copies of your own letter and any you receive.
If your complaint is a just one,the shopkeeper may offer to replace or repair the faulty article.You may find it an attractive solution.In certain cases you may have the right to refuse the goods and ask for the money back,but this is when you have hardly used the goods and have acted at once.Even when you cannot refuse the goods you may be able to get some money back as well.And you have suffered some special loss,if,for example,a new washing machine tears your clothes,you might receive money to repair them.
56.The shoppers may make a complaint becauseB.
A.they dislike causing a fuss(大驚小怪)
B.it doesn't do what is claimed(要求) for it

10.Science flying in the face of gravity
    It looked just like another aircraft from the outside.The pilot told his young passengers that it was built in 1964,based on the 707.But appearances were deceptive,and the 13 students from Europe and the USA who boarded the aircraft were in for the flight of their lives.
    Inside,the area that normally had seats had become a long white tunnel.Heavily padded from floor to ceiling,there were almost no windows,but lights along the padded walls eerily illuminated(照明)it.Most of the seats had been taken out,apart from a few at the back,where the young scientists quickly took their places with a look of apprehension.
    For 12 months,science students from across the continents had competed to win a place on the flight at the invitation of the European Space Agency.The challenge had been to suggest imaginative experiments to be conducted in weightless conditions.
    For the next two hours the Boeing's flight resembled that of an enormous bird which had lost its reason,shooting upwards towards the heavens before hurtling towards Earth.The intention was to achieve weightlessness for a few second.
    The aircraft took off smoothly enough,but any feelings that I and the young scientists had that we were on anything like a scheduled passenger service were quickly dismissed when the pilot put the plane into a 45-degree climb which lasted around 20 seconds.Then the engines cut out and we became weightless.Everything became confused and left or right,up or down no longer had any meaning.After 10 seconds of free-fall descent the pilot pulled the aircraft out of its nosedive.The return of gravity was less immediate than its loss,but was still sudden enough to ensure that some students came down with a bump.
    Each time the pilot cut the engines and we became weightless,a new team conducted its experiment.First it was the Dutch who wanted to discover how it is that cats always land on their feet.Then the German team who conducted a successful experiment on a traditional building method to see if it could be used for building a future space station.
    After two hours of going up and down in the plane doing their experiments,most of the students thought it was an unforgettable experience and one they would be keen to repeat.
46.What does the underlined word"eerily"in Paragraph 2 mean?B
A.clearly         B.strangely           C.badly              D.brightly
47.Why was this text written?D
A.To report on a new scientific technique.
B.To show scientists what young people can do.
C.To encourage young people to take up science.
D.To describe the outcome of a scientific competition.
48.What did the pilot do with the plane?C
A.He climbed and then made the plane turn over.
B.He climbed and then made the plane fall slowly.
C.He quickly climbed and then stopped the engines.
D.He took off normally and then cut the engines for 20 seconds.
49.What was the point of being weightless?B
A.To see what conditions are like in space.
B.To allow the teams to try out their ideas.
C.To prepare the young scientists for future work in space.
D.To show unforgettable experiences for the young scientists.
