winner of nobel prize. loewi had spent years studying the chemical transmission (传送) of nerve impulses (神经脉冲). a tremendous breakthrough in his research came when he dreamed of an experiment three nights in a row. the first two nights he woke up and wrote down the experiment quickly and untidily on a pad. but the next morning, he couldnt tell what the notes meant. on the third night, he got up after having the dream. this time, instead of making notes he went straight to his laboratory and performed the crucial (关键的) experiment. loewi later said that if the experiment had occurred to him while awake he would have rejected it.loewis experiment gives some insight into using dreams to produce creative solutions. formality (拘谨) is reduced during dreaming, which may be especially useful in solving problems that require a fresh point of view.being able to take advantage of dreams for problem solving is improved if you “set” yourself before retiring. before you go to bed, try to think intently about a problem you wish to solve. steep (使沉湎) yourself in the problem by stating it clearly and reviewing all relevant information. then use the suggestions listed in the previous section to catch your dreams. although this method is not guaranteed to produce a novel solution or a new insight, it is certain to be an adventure. about half of a group of college students using the method for a week recalled a dream that helped them solve personal problems.语篇解读：本文以德国医学家勒维因梦境而创造性地进行医学实验为例，说明梦很有可能会引导人们走向创造和新发现。1the main idea of this passage is that _.avery little is really known about the meaning of dreamsbit is possible to “catch” ones dreams by planning before going to sleepcdreams can be useful in producing creative solutions to ones problemsdloewis experiment helped in the study of transmission of nerve impulses解析：选c。主旨大意题。根据第一段首句可知，作者认为梦是通向创造和新发现的一条捷径，也就是说梦可以帮助人们找到解决问题的创造性措施。2the first paragraph is mainly organized by _.aclassifying types of experimentsbsummarizing the work of one researcherccomparing and exploring historical casesdtelling in time order about one mans research解析：选d。细节理解题。本段以时间顺序为线索，详细介绍了勒维在做研究时因三次梦境而成功解决了问题。3if loewi had thought of the experiment while awake, he would have _.aasked someone else to do itbthought it was a bad ideactried it out on his owndthought it was a wise idea解析：选b。细节理解题。第一段末句勒维说，如果他在醒着的时候想到这样的实验，一定会否定它。也就是说他会认为这个办法不好。4the author probably thinks that _.aloewi should not have conducted his experimentbdreaming is of very little value to most peoplecformality may stop us thinking of useful ideasdcollege students should not try out dream experiments解析：选c。推理判断题。根据第二段第二句可知，作者认为梦境之所以能帮助解决问题，是因为人在做梦的时候不那么拘谨。因而可以推知，作者认为过于拘谨会限制人们的新想法。福建专用a篇同安徽、河南专用ba decade after terror struck america, we are starting to move forward.it has been 10 years. in those awful (可怕的) days right after 9/11, i asked my colleague, dave barry, if he thought he would ever write jokes again. he was then the humor columnist (专栏作家) for the miami herald.“for the last week，” he told me, “i havent even tried to write anything funny, and for a while i thought maybe i never would, or should.”he had it; we all had it that feeling of being stuck, unable to find your way back to the life you had lived before. i wrote 10 columns in a row about what i had seen, the planes crashing, the lives lost. finally, i had to force myself to write a column about something that was not terror (恐怖). that lasted one column. then i went right back to what was now normal. terror was normal.that was a decade ago. todays terrors become tomorrows memories. news becomes history.and i find myself remembering how i used to kill ants when i was a child. the thing that struck me was that they always came back. even if you destroy their world a hundred times, they build it a hundred and one times.there is something of that in people. it may be one of the best things about us. we always fight the cruel things in life, bury our dead, rebuild and find a way to move forward. we did it when fire burned down chicago, after the earthquake in san francisco, and after the floods in new orleans.and we did it on september 11.it is true that we have changed in ways that are not all good. we are at war on three fronts. we are running a strange prison on cuba. the government may not let you fly and will not tell you why.osama bin laden is dead. experts tell us the terror group he led is weakened. however, terrorism remains alive in american political thought, which is becoming more extreme.there is reason to be worried about these changes. but i am still grateful that we moved away from the 9/11 nightmare (噩梦) at all.it felt as if we might never go forward from that moment. but we did. 5.which phrase can be used to describe dave barrys feelings just after 9/11?aheartbroken and hopelessbfrightened but hopefulcunable to care or focusdsad but confident解析：选a。根据第四段dave barry所说的话“可能永远，或者不应该写有趣的事了”可知，9/11事件后，他非常伤心，感到绝望。故答案选a。6from paragraph 5, we can conclude that _.athe author was so shaken that he stopped writing completelybthere was no terrorism in america before 9/11cfor some time americans found it difficult to think about anything other than terrordno one ever feels safe anymore解析：选c。根据第五段第一句“he had it; we all had it that feeling of being stuck, unable to find your way back to the life you had lived before.”可知，9/11事件后的一段时间内，美国人们很难从灾难的阴影中走出来。故答案选c。7. with the example of ants, the author aims to show that _.ahe misses his happy childhoodbpeople can rebuild and recover, just like antsche is sorry that he killed the antsdrebuilding is more important than sadness解析：选b。作者提到小时候把蚂蚁弄死，毁掉它们的家之后，它们总是再回来。通过这个故事说明这样一个道理，人们也会像蚂蚁一样，从悲伤中走出来，重建家园。故答案选b。8according to the last part of the article, the authors main point is that _.aterrorism has influenced the government too muchbpeople should look on the bright sidecterrorism will continue to existdno changes are ever completely good解析：选b。通过文章最后部分中的“but i am still grateful that we moved away from the 9/11 nightmare (噩梦) at all.”以及“it felt as if we might never go forward from that moment. but we did.”表明，不管经历过什么灾难，现实中又有什么困难，人们都应该乐观面对，一如既往地前进。故答案选b。.选做题任务型读写(安徽专用)a debate is a discussion about a subject on which people have different views. its a nice way of gaining a lot of knowledge and views
