Most of us have hoped this might help. However, knowledge can39。t go through the pillow into your brain. But that doesn39。t mean you can39。t learn while you are asleep. Scientists aren39。t exactly sure how it works, but they have discovered that the brain can learn things during sleeping hours. In one experiment, researchers gave German speakers some Dutch words to learn. Then, they divide them into three groups. The researchers played the Dutch words for people in Group 1 while they were asleep, without telling these German speakers what they were doing. The sound was low. So it didn39。t wake them up, and only the newly introduced words were used. Another group listened to the same words while they were awake. The researchers found the people in Group 1 were better able to identify and translate the words later. This was true only for the words that were played while they slept. The third group listened to words when they walked. The walkers didn39。t have the same success remembering the words as the sleeping group. The researchers later found that people had more slow wave(慢波的) brain activity all over the night. They said that more slow waves made people have a better memory for the new words.(1)When did the researchers play foreign words for people in Group 1 in the experiment? A.Before they went for a walk.B.Before they went to bed.C.When they were asleep.D.When they were having dinner.(2)What does the underlined word identify mean in Chinese?

A.Scientists think people can39。t learn during sleeping hours.B.German speakers enjoy learning Dutch words.C.Slowwave brain activity can help people have a good sleep.D.People in Group 3 didn39。t remember the words as well as those in Group 1.(5)Where is the passage most probably from? A.A history textbook.B.A science magazine.C.A travel newspaper.D.A modern novel.【答案】 (1)C(2)B(3)A(4)D(5)B 【解析】【分析】主要講了科學(xué)家發(fā)現(xiàn)睡覺期間大腦能學(xué)習(xí)東西。 (1)細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)The researchers played the Dutch words for people in Group 1 while they were asleep,可知調(diào)查者當(dāng)人們睡著時,把荷蘭詞放在一組,故選C。 (2)細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)句意可知一組睡著的人比二組醒著的人更好地辨別單詞,故選B。 (3)細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)后兩段可知講的是一組、二組、三組的實驗的結(jié)果,故選A。 (4)細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)The third group listened to words when they walked.

Most people say a year is 365 days. It takes about 365 days for the earth to go around the sun. In fact, it takes a little longer for the earth to go around the sun. It needs 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes, and 46 seconds. If a year has only 365 days, what happens to the extra(額外的) 5 hours, 48 minutes, and 46 seconds? The answer is this: Every four years, we have another day. It39。s February 29, and we call this day a leap day(閏日).This kind of year is called a leap year. A leap year has 366 days.People born on February 29 are called leapday babies, or leapers. There are about four million leapers in the world. When do they celebrate their birthday? Do they celebrate only once every four years? Some leapers celebrate the birthday on February 28, and others celebrate it on March 1. Think about it: A twelveyearold leaper may have celebrated only three birthdays on the real day after he or she was born! Which year are leap years? Years that can be divided(除盡)by four are leap years. The year 2000 was a leap year. Then 2004,2008,2012,2016 were the next leap years. If you know a leaper, you must say Happy birthday! to him or her on the leap day, because you just have one time to do that every four years!(1)Why did the writer write the first paragrahp?
