I went to a group activity, “Sensitivity Sunday” which was to make us more the problem faced by disabled people, We were asked to “ a disability” for several hours one Sunday. Some members chose the wheel chair, Others wore sound-blocking earplugs(耳塞)or blindfolds .
Just sitting in the wheelchair was a experience, I had never considered before how it would be to use one .As soon as I sat down my made the chair begin to roll ,Its wheel were not Then I wondered where to put my .It took me quite a while to get the metal footrest into ,I took my first uneasy look at what was to be my only means of for several hours, For disabled people, Using a wheelchair is not a temporary(臨時的)
I tried to find a position and thought it might be at ease, a little nice to be around for a while. Looking around, I I would have to handle the thing myself! My hands started to ache as I the heavy wheels, I came to know that controlling the of the wheelchair was not going to be a (an) task.
My wheelchair experiment was soon . It made a deep impression on me. A few hours of “disability” gave me only a taste of the , both physical and mental, that disabled people must overcome.

Because plants cannot move or talk, most people believe that they have no feelings and that they cannot receive signals from outside. However, this may not be completely true.
People who studied plants have found out that plants carry a small electrical charge (電荷). It is possible to measure this charge with a small piece of equipment called “galvanometer”. The galvanometer is placed on a leaf of the plant, and it records any changes in the electrical field of the leaf. Humans have a similar field which can change when we are shocked or frightened.
A man called Backster used a galvanometer for his studies of plants and was very surprised at his results. He found that if he had two or more plants in a room and he began to destroy one of them -- perhaps by pulling off its leaves or by pulling it out of its pot-then the galvanometer on the leaves of the other plants showed a change in the electrical field. It seemed as if the plants were signaling a feeling of shock. This happened not only when Backster started to destroy plants, but also when he destroyed other living thing such as insects (昆蟲).
Backster said that the plants also knew if someone had destroyed a living thing some distance away, because they signalled when a man who had just cut down a tree entered the room.
Another scientist, named Sauvin, achieved similar results to Backster’s. He kept galvanometers fixed on his plants all the time and checked regularly to see what the plants were doing. If he was out of the office, he telephoned to find out about the signals the plants were sending. In this way, he found that the plants were sending out signals at the exact times when he felt strong pleasure or pain. In fact, Sauvin could cause a change in the electrical field of his plants over a distance of a few miles simply by thinking about them.
1.Backster was surprised at the results of his studies because _____.
A. he destroyed an insect
B. he destroyed a plant by pulling off its leaves
C. he found that plants could express feelings of shock
D. he found that plants could move and speak after all
2.The plants sent out signals _____.
A. only when Backster Started to destroy plants
B. when Backster destroyed plants or other living things
C. only when he destroyed things such as insects
D. only when Backster placed the galvanometer on the leaves of the plants
3.The scientist called Sauvin _____.
A. did not agree with Backster’s ideas
B. did not get the same sort of results as Backster did
C. got different results from Backster’s
D. found out some of the same things that Backster did
4.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. Sauvin could make his plants send out signals some distance away.
B. A tree will signal when it has been cut down.
C. The electrical charge plants carry may shock or frighten us.
D. Plants have feelings because they can receive signals without moving.

Why do we dream?It's a question researchers have been studying for years. Now new research suggests that some dreams may result from the brain's effort to keep learning, even as we sleep.
In a study in Boston, 100 volunteers were trained for an hour on a maze (迷宮).They tried to find their way through the difficult puzzle as quickly as possible. Then half of the volunteers were allowed to sleep for 90 minutes. The other half stayed awake, reading or relaxing. The ones who slept were asked to describe their dreams when they woke up.
After the rest, the volunteers were asked again to solve the maze. Those who hadn't slept showed no improvement or did even worse after the break. Sleepers who didn't report any maze related dreams did better but showed only a little improvement. However, four nap-takers who reported dreaming about the maze showed a surprising improvement. They scored 10 times higher after sleeping and dreaming about the maze.
Even though the number of dreamers was small, the researchers noted that the gap in learning between the dreamers and non-dreamers was so wide that the finding was significant (有意義的).
The dreamers had all performed poorly on the test before dreaming about it. That suggests that struggling with a task might be the trigger that leads the sleeping brain to focus on it and work on how to deal with it.
“It's almost as if your brain is going through everything that happened today,”Dr Stickgold,a scientist at Harvard Medical School, said. “The things you're obsessed (迷住) with are the ones that your brain forces you to continue to do with.”
1.What's the best title for this passage?
A.Learning while you dreamB.What dreams stand for
C.Dream a good dreamD.Dreams and health
2.What were the volunteers asked to do after the rest?
A.To work on a new maze.
B.To continue to do the maze.
C.To talk with each other about their dreams.
D.To tell what they thought about the maze.
3.According to the study, which group showed the greatest improvement?
A.Those who didn't sleep.
B.Those who slept but didn't dream.
C.Those who dreamed about the maze while sleeping.
D.Those who thought about the maze before falling asleep.
4.The underlined word “trigger” in Paragraph 5 probably means “________”.
A.chanceB.causeC.wayD.idea

Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping because he needs something. His purpose is settled and decided in advance. He knows what he wants, and his objective is to find it and buy it; the price is a secondary consideration. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it in stock, the salesman promptly produces it, and the business of trying it on goes forward at once. All being well, the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes, with hardly any chat and to everyone's satisfaction. For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants, or does not have exactly what he wants. In that case the salesman, as the name implies, tries to sell the customer something else, he offers the nearest he can to the article required. No good salesman brings out such a substitute without least consideration; he does so with skill and polish(完美): “I know this jacket is not the style you want, sir, but would you like to try it for size. It happens to be the color you mentioned." Few men have patience with this treatment, and the usual response is: “This is the right color and may be the right size but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on.
Now how does a woman go about buying clothes? In almost every respect she does so in the opposite way. Her shopping is not often based on need. She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is only “having a look round". She is always open to persuasion: indeed she sets great store by what the saleswoman tells her, even by what companions tell her. She will try on any number of things. Uppermost in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Contrary to a lot of jokes, most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes. They are always on the lookout for the unexpected bargain. Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one rail to another, to and fro often retracing her steps, before selecting the dresses she wants to try on. It is a tiresome process, but apparently an enjoyable one. Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.
1.According to the passage, a man’s shopping is based on _______.
A.his money | B.his hobbies | C.his need | D.his friends |
2.Why does a lady welcome suggestions from anyone while buying a dress?
A.Because she wants to buy a dress that everyone thinks suits her. |
B.Because she doesn’t know how to buy a dress. |
C.Because she doesn’t know whether to buy it or not. |
D.Because she wants to show herself off in public. |
3.Which of the following statements is TURE according to the passage?
A.Most men have patience with trying it on while buying a jacket. |
B.Most women have a poor sense of value when buying a dress. |
C.A woman’s shopping is based on her need. |
D.Price is not the first thing to consider when a man buys clothes. |
4.The passage mainly talks about the ______ between men shoppers and women shoppers for clothes.
A.similarities | B.differences | C.varieties | D.intentions |
