Who may have summer drowsiness more easily?

• People who like to eat cold food.

• People who stay up late.

Physical exercise is always good for your health.

Why are we sleepy in summer?

• Biological clock

Your biological clock has not been adjusted（调节）according to the seasonal change of day and night.

• Less blood in the brain

In summer, the capillaries（毛细血管）relax. More blood runs to the surface, while less goes to the brain and other parts of the body.

Claw machines（娃娃机）are very common in shopping centers or movie theaters. You might get your favorite toy after paying some coins. It seems to be a

low-cost game and the game rules are easy to understand for most people. So

many children, young people and even some old people like to play on the claw

machine, again and again.

However，simple rules and easy-to-use machines do not mean everyone can easily win a prize. You may watch your toy being caught but suddenly dropping at the last second. There are some reasons why people like claw machines, even though they may face many difficulties.

For quite a few Buddhist（佛系的）players, they play on claw machines to deal with stress. They

pay so much attention to this game that they forget their trouble from daily life. No matter what the result is, they enjoy the process.

Some people say they enjoy the sense of achievement when they catch a prize from a claw machine. They take pride in managing to do what most people cannot. People around the machine also express their congratulations and admiration for winners.

Toys from a claw machine have far more meaning than what you can buy in a nearby store. They can also be good gifts for the ones you love. It is a great way to show effort and consideration since winning a prize from a claw machine requires time and money, as well as skills.

Playing on the claw machine can be a fun memory. What do you think of it?

26. What does the underlined sentence mean?

A. It is almost impossible to win a prize.

B. Everyone enjoys playing on the claw machine.

C. Not everyone can catch a toy from a claw machine easily.

27. Paragraph 2 is used for ________________________.

A. providing the best way to win the game

B. giving an example in people’s daily life

C. connecting the paragraph above with the following ones

28. T he Buddhist players will probably think the game is ______ if they don’t catch the toy.

A. boring

B. relaxing

C. challenging

29. W hat can we know from the article?

A. Claw machines are popular with people of all ages.

B. To win a prize in the game doesn't need skills but time.

C. People have to spend much time understanding the game.

30. T he writer mainly wants to tell us ______.

A. the toys as gifts from stores nearby are meaningless

B. no matter how easy or hard the game is，it brings us a lot of fun

C. getting the sense of achievement in the game is just a piece of cake

D

Everybody has a brain. Some people believe that the brain is

like the hard disk（盘）of a computer. We use it to store pictures,

language（words, texts, sounds）and so on. Others compare the brain

to a huge cupboard（櫉柜）with lots of shelves and boxes in it. We

put information into these boxes and hope to find it again later.

The brain is not a computer disk, and it isn’t a cupboard. Look

at the picture here. It looks a bit like weeds（杂草）in a garden, doesn’t it? The picture actually shows a child’s neocortex（大脑新皮质）, which controls sight（视觉）and hearing. You can guess what happens ─ more “weeds” grow as the child gets older. Scientists call these neuronal networks（神经元网络）. The networks grow around our neurons. What makes them grow? Learning! “Learning is brain change,” says Professor James Zull from Case Western University in Cleveland, Ohio, USA. “Without learning，nothing changes in the brain. For every new word you learn in your English lesson, every problem you solve in math, every new song you learn to sing. a neuronal network grows in your brain and the brain changes.”

The more neuronal networks we grow, the better we can think and the better we remember. You may wonder if there is anything you can do to make the networks in your brain grow better. Professor Zull says yes, there is. He says that brain change is the strongest in the following situations:

• You are interested in and like what you are learning;

• You are in control of what you learn;

• You get challenging tasks that make you think hard.

Choose a right way to learn something, and you may develop your brain better than you think.

31. The writer mainly talked about ______ in Paragraph 1.

A. what a brain is made up of

B. how a brain changes

C. what people think a brain is

32. Our brain changes when we ______.

A. learn languages

B. have problems

C. enjoy songs

33. The growth of ______ changes children’s brains.

A. neuronal networks

B. weeds in a garden

C. size of brain

34. Who may have the strongest change in the brain?

A. Lucy who is interested in art has to study science hard.

B. Sam who tries to work out a difficult math problem.

C. Tom who is riding falls off his bike.

35. The best title for the passage is “ ______ ”.

A. Leaning is Brain Change

B. Choosing a Right Way to Learn

C. Thinking Better，Remembering Better
