Early in the twentieth century, two famous scientists developed their personal ideas about dreams. Austrian psychiatrist(心里学家) Sigmund Freud published a book called “The Interpretation(诠释) of Dreams” in 1900. Freud believed people often dream about things they want but can’t have. These dreams often have something to do with sex and aggression(侵犯). Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung worked closely with Freud for several years, but he believed dreams could help people grow and understand themselves. He believed dreams provide solutions(解答) to problems we face when we are awake. He didn’t believe dreams hide our feelings about sex or aggression. Today we know more about the science of dreaming because researchers can take pictures of people’s brains while they are sleeping.
Other researchers are studying how dreaming helps our bodies work with problems and very sad emotions(感情). Robert Stickgold is a professor of psychiatry at Harvard University in Massachusetts. Doctor Stickgold says that when we dream, the brain is trying to make sense of the world. He does not agree with Sigmund Freud that dreaming is the way we express our hidden feelings and desires(愿望).
Scientists believe it is important to keep researching dreams. Doctor Stickgold says it has been more than one hundred years since Sigmund Freud published his important book about dreaming. Yet there is still no agreement on exactly how the brain works when we are dreaming or why we dream.

A. Jung thought that dreams provide solutions to problems we face when we are sleeping
B. Freud developed the idea that dreams are expressions of people’s hidden feelings
C. scientists have known quite well why we dream because they can take pictures of our brains

I learned from his profile that he was in a relationship and had a son. However, I"m pretty sure we won’t ever write wall-to-wall, let alone e-mail each other. But he"ll remain a friend of online until one of us makes a point of removing the other from his official list.
My pool of friends consists of family members, college buddies, co-workers from past and present, and friends of friends. There are 35 in all. If I spent some time uploading old e-mail addresses, I"m confident that I could increase my friend count actually.
A person could make a mission out of reconnecting with childhood friends, former classmates, distant cousins, and those one would like to get to know better. And some people can even handle hundreds of on-screen relationships, keeping up with the daily happenings of their small army of companions. After all, there are worse fates than having too many friends.
Thanks to e-mail, the inability to schedule face-to-face meetings no longer means a friendship must come to a close. But even with e-mail, people will lose touch if one or both parties stop writing back. That"s normal. People move from school to school, job to job, city to city. You never have to feel guilty for breaking away.
Every day, the masterminds of Web 2. 0 find new ways of making human communication easier. However, convenience can be a crutch. Some things shouldn"t be simplified. When it comes to friendship, there can be no shortcuts.

A.would write to the friend quite often |
B.asked the friend to e-mail him |

D.would keep in touch with the friend forever |
A.There are 35 people in the author"s list of friends right now. |
B.The author communicates with all the 35 friends by e-mails. |
C.The list of 35 friends doesn"t include the old e-mail addresses. |
D.It is not difficult for the author to increase his friend count. |
A.The technology could not keep true friendship forever. |
B.The social web site of Facebook means nothing at all. |
C.There will be no ways of making real friends on line. |

This concept is popular today but in a different way. The phrase “pay it forward” is now used when one person helps another. However, the person helped may not be able to repay the person or group that helped them. So rather than return the favor to their helpers, they are supposed to help someone else in the future, which means they pay it forward. It is a sense of responsibility which makes us want to give back in equal measure to the one who has helped us. But, in this case, the responsibility turns to helping someone in the future.
Suppose your elderly grandmother pays part of your schooling. She may tell you there is no need to repay her because it is a gift from someone who loves you very much. Nothing would please her more than to have you use her money to get a good education.
You may never be able to repay her for such a gift. However, she not only gave you some money, but she provided you with an example that you should also help other people who need it.
People with serious needs are everywhere. Many are children who need better clothes, more books and even better schools. Some are elderly people who can’t afford their medicine or a doctor’s care. Consider how you can “pay it forward” rather than pay money back to your grandmother.
小题1:The helpers in the book “Magnificent Obsession” were not rewarded because ________.
A.they hadn’t solved the problems thoroughly |
B.they expected to be paid back in the future. |
C.they were friends of the worried individual |
D.they had solved the problems secretly |
A.to repay someone who has helped you |
B.to help someone else who needs help |
C.to help someone who has helped you |
D.to pay someone else who needs help |
A.We should also lend a hand to other people in need of help. |
B.We should work hard to get a good education. |
C.We should learn to respect our grandparents. |
D.We should never forget to repay people for their help. |
A.honest | B.mysterious | C. unselfish | D.unforgettable |
Here are three steps to ease the current food crisis and avoid the potential for a global crisis. The first is to promote the dramatic success of Malawi, a country in southern Africa, which three years ago established a special fund to help its farmers get fertilizer and seeds with high productivity. Malawi’s harvest doubled after just one year. An international fund based on the Malawi model would cost a mere $10 per person annually in the rich world, or $10 billion altogether.
Second, the U.S. and Europe should abandon their policies of paying partly for the change of food into biofuels (生物燃料). The U.S. government gives farmers a taxpayer-financed payment of 51 cents per gallon of ethanol (乙醇) changed from corn. There may be a case for biofuels produced on lands that do not produce foods — tree crops, grasses and wood products — but there’s no case for the government to pay to put the world’s dinner into the gas tank.
Third, we urgently need to weather-proof the world’s crops as soon and as effectively as possible. For a poor farmer, sometimes something as simple as a farm pond — which collects rainwater to be used in dry weather — can make the difference between a good harvest and a bad one. The world has already committed to establishing a Climate Adaptation Fund to help poor regions climate-proof vital economic activities such as food production and health care but has not yet acted upon the promise.
小题1: An international fund based on the Malawi model would______.
A.cost each of the developed countries $10 billion per year |
B.give poor farmers access to fertilizer and highly productive seeds |
C.decrease the food prices as well as the energy prices |
D.aim to double the harvest in southern African countries in a year |
A.we should get alternative forms of fuel in any way |
B.it is misleading to put tree crops into the gas tank |
C.it is not wise to change food crops into gas |
D.biofuels should be developed on a large scale |
A.The world has made a serious promise to build farm ponds. |
B.A Climate Adaptation Fund has been established to help poor. |
C.A rain-collecting pond is a simple safeguard against dry weather. |
D.It makes a great difference whether we develop wood products or not. |
A.slow down but not to stop economy |
B.act now so as to relieve the global food shortage |
C.achieve economic growth and political stability |
D.develop tree crops, grasses and wood products |
