During the day the web is very tight, so you can only put information in a certain number of places. During sleep the web expands, and with the luxury of time, those bits of information can be put into lots of different places and make new associations. Paul McCartney said that he awoke with the tune of Yesterday in his head, and Robert Louis Stevenson said that the idea for The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde came to him in a dream.8.閱讀理解 故選B。根據(jù)第一段中的Now, there are apps that can help people learn about the food they eat to improve their health and their dining out experience.現(xiàn)在,有一些應(yīng)用程序可以幫助人們了解他們吃的食物,從而改善他們的健康和外出就餐的體驗(yàn)。故選C。而快樂(lè)奶牛應(yīng)用軟件就是為這兩個(gè)群體制作的。根據(jù)HappyCow app部分中的”Vegetarians do not eat animal meat.
