Perhaps it doesnt need to feel this way. Our experience of time can be possibly changed. By understanding the psychological (心理学的) processes behind our different experiences of time, we might be able to slow down time a little.One basic law of psychological time is that time seems to slow down when were exposed (接触) to new environments and experiences. The law is caused by the relationship between our experience of time and the amount of information our minds process. The more information our minds take in, the slower time seems to pass.It follows, then, that we have different experiences of time in different situations. In some situations, our life is full of new experiences. Our minds process a lot of information and time seems to slow down. In other situations, we have fewer new experiences and the world around us becomes more and more familiar (熟悉的). We become insensitive to our experience, which means we process less information, and time seems to speed up.How can we slow down time? Here are two suggestions.Firstly, since we know that familiarity makes time pass faster, we can expose ourselves to as many new experiences as possible. We can give ourselves new challenges, meet new people, and expose our minds to new information, hobbies and skills. This will increase the amount of information our minds process and expand (增加) our experience of time.Secondly, and perhaps most effectively, we can give our whole attention to an experience-to what we are seeing, feeling, tasting, smelling or hearing. This means living through our senses rather than through our thoughts. For example, on the way home, focus your attention outside of yourself, instead of thinking about the problems you have to deal with. Look at the sky, or at the buildings you pass, traveling among them. This open attitude to your experiences helps take in more information and also has a time-expanding effect.To a certain degree, we can understand and control our experience of time passing. Its possible for us to slow down time by expanding our experience of time.（1）According to the writer, we can expand our experience of time by _. A . going to bed on timeB . traveling to new placesC . having dinner as usualD . printing the same materials（2）What can we learn from the passage? A . Being familiar with the world around helps us get more information.B . Understanding psychological time makes life pass more quickly.C . We can take in more information by living through our senses.D . We should build a stronger relationship between time and us.（3）Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A . Slow Down TimeB . Only Time Will TellC . Race Against TimeD . Time Will Not Come Twice六、 选词填空 (共1题；共10分)13. （10分）用方框中所给单词的适当形式填空 almost, make, build, become, both heart, decide, famous, beautifully, interestNot everyone can make their dreams come true.
