Her study involved the analysis of 77 adults. Each participant was given several wordassociated creative tasks. All tasks were given in the morning, with participants being shown a number of groups of 3 words, for example: cookie, heart and sixteen. They were asked to e up with a word that would be associated with all three given terms—like sweet. Sometime later, after some participants were allowed to sleep, they were asked to perform the same tasks and some new ones. It is worth mentioning that while some people slept, researchers used brain scans to see the type of sleep each participant entered. Researchers consider that sleeping on a problem in most cases leads to elucidation(解釋). They say when a person enters a phase called Rapid Eye Movement (REM) during sleep, it increases the effect. Such phase takes place right before we awake and according to scientists it helps our brain make links between unrelated subjects.2．閱讀理解s ‘Just keep swimming!’ message of perseverance is perfect for anyone who has ever felt like they were drowning.

After taking a nap people are able to think faster and put more imagination into their thinking. Besides, if we dream, the thinking abilities are improved even more. In the study, led by Professor Sara Mednick, scientists made a conclusion that the REM was important for assimilating(消化) new information into past experience in order to find solutions to creative problems. When given the same tasks, participants, who took a nap, were able to give more varied solutions, some of which were much better than they gave earlier. But when given new tasks, researchers found that those who entered REM sleep had a 40 percent better result pared to the performance they showed in the morning.（1）What does it refer to in the second paragraph?A.REM.C.A problem.（2）Why do the researchers study the REM?A.Because REM can store more information.C.Because REM can make a creative invention.（3）What can we know from this passage?A.Sleeping has three processes which is good for creativity.C.REM is a process taking place right after we awake when we nap.（4）The important stage in the study is________.A.to show a group of 3 wordsC.D.( 1 )詞義猜測題。( 2 )細(xì)節(jié)理解題。( 3 )細(xì)節(jié)理解題。故選A。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段It is worth mentioning that while some people slept, researchers used brain scans to
