Other people always wake up with vivid recollections (记忆) of their dreams, though they forget them very quickly. In an average night of eight hours sleep, an average adult will dream for around one hundred minutes, probably having three to five dreams，each lasting from ten to thirty minutes.Scientists can detect when someone is having a dream by using an instrument which measures the electrical waves in the brain. During dreaming, these waves move more quickly. Breathing and pulse rate also increase, and there are rapid eye movements under the lids, just as though the dreamer were really looking at moving objects. These signs of dreaming have been detected in all mammals (哺 乳动物) studied, including dogs, monkeys, cats, and elephants, and also some birds and reptiles (爬行动物). This period of sleep is called the D state for around 50% of their sleep; the period reduces to around 25% by the age of 10.Dreams take the form of stories, but they may be strange and with incidents not connected, which make little sense. Dreams are seldom without people in them and they are usually about people we know. One estimate says that two-thirds of the cast of our dream dramas are friends and relations. Vision seems an essential part of dreams, except for people blind from birth. Sound and touch are senses also often aroused, but smell and taste are not frequently involved. In normal dreams, the dreamer may be taking part, or be only an observer. But he or she cannot control what happens in the dream.However, the dreamer does have control over one type of dream. This type of dream is called a lucid(清醒的) dream. Not everyone is a lucid dreamer. Some people are occasional lucid dreamers. Others can dream lucidly more or less all the time. In a lucid dream, the dreamer knows that he is dreaming.1. Some people dream but cannot remember their dreams.A. RightB. WrongC. Not mentioned2.In an average night，males dream longer than females.A.

These will cost $5 for initial viewing over a 48-hour period and can be viewed again for additional fees and even purchased for unlimited viewing.3Divx combines the service of a video rental (出租的) store with the operation of a pay-per-view IV channel. Unlike a rented videotape, though, the Divx disc neednt be returned. Customers can retain the disc for replay in the future at an additional fee, or simply throw it away.4Subsequent plays, or the purchase of unlimited-viewing rights, are billed to the customers Divx account and charged to a credit card. The players built-in memory keeps track of all Divx plays, and sends this information by toll-free phone modem (调制解调器) to the Divx record-keeping centre. Each Divx disc and player has a unique identification code, so the system knows which discs have been played and where.5Some Divx discs could be converted for unlimited play at a price likely to be lower than buying a conventional DVD. Others, called Divx Gold, would be sold from the beginning for unlimited play without further charge. Although conventional DVDs will run in a Divx player, conventional DVD players will lack the decoding (解码) and communications ability to play Divx discs. Divx players will be offered by Panasonic, RCA, and Zenith.6About 100 discs will be available initially from Disney, Dreamworks, Paramount, and Universal, growing to 500 titles within a year. Other film makers have yet to adopt the Divx system, which is owned by retailer Circuit City, the 350-store electronics chain that bankrolled (提供资金)its development.1Paragraph 2 .2Paragraph 3 .3Paragraph 4 .4Paragraph 5 .A Booming Business of Circuit CityB Superior Quality of Conventional DVD DiscsC The New System Called DivxD Unlimited Play of Divx DiscsE Disc-play Tracking and Billing SystemsF Two Functions Combined5The Divx disc is different from the rented videotape in that once offered, the Divx disc .6Every Divx disc has a special code so that the rental shop can identify which disc .7If converted for unlimited use, the Divx disc .8The conventional DVD player cannot play any Divx disc because the disc .Awill not be taken back by the shopBis specially codedCis bankrolled by Panasonic, etcDis likely to be cheaper than the conventional DVD discEhas been played and whereFis owned by retailer Circuit City答案：C F E D A E D B阅读理解阅读下面短文，短文后有5道题。请根据短文内容，为每题确定1个最佳选项。A Very Slow RideThe surface of the earth may seem very stable to you. But you might be amazed if you knew some of the things that are going on under that surface.The earth has an outer shell of rigid pieces called tectonic plates (地壳构造板块)。The plates include both ocean floor and dry land. Some have whole continents on top of them. The continents on top of the plates are just going along for a slow ride，moving only about four inches per year. But even this small movement causes three types of big interactions.One type is ocean ridges. These ridges develop in places where two plates are moving away from each other. As the plates separate，hot magma(岩浆)flows up to fill the space. New crust(地壳)builds up on the plate boundaries and causes ocean ridges. These ridges form long mountain ranges，which only rise above the ocean surface in a few places.Another type of reaction-trenches-occurs between two plates that are moving toward each other. As the plates meet，one bends downward and plunges undemeath the other .This forms deep ocean trenches. The Marianas Trench off Guam in the western Pacific Ocean has a depth of more than 36，000 feet. This is the lowest point on the ocean floor. If the leading edges of the two colliding plates carry continents，then the layers of rock in the overriding plate crumple(变皱)and fold. A plate that carried what is now lndia collided with the southern edge of the plate that carried Europe and most of Asia. This caused the Himalayas，the worlds highest mountains.The third reaction is transform faults(转换断层)。These faults occur where two plates that are traveling in opposite directions slide past each other. Severe earthquakes can occur. The San Andreas Fault in Califomia is a good example of this type of movement.1.The word stable(paragraph 1)meansA. a place for horses.B. calm and easygoing.C. steady or firm.D. a collection of animals.2.To explain the effect of trenches，the writer gives the example ofA. the sea floor in the Atlantic Ocean.B. the Himalayan Mountains.C. Europe.D. lndia.3.The San Andreas Fault is an example ofA. a severe earthquake.B. a California rock formation.C. two plates moving apart.D. two plates aliding past each other.4.According to the passage，the earth isA. always changing.B. becoming smaller.C. moving faster.D. getting hotter.5.This passage is mostly aboutA. effects of movements of the earths plates.B. different types of continents.C. the Marianas Trench.D. transform faults.答案：CBDAA第5部分：补全短文(第4650题，每题2分，共10分)阅读下面的短文，文章中有5处空白，文章后面有6组文字，请根据文章的内容选择5组文字，将其分别放回文章原有位置，以恢复文章原貌。请将答案涂在答题卡相应的位置上。GarlicFrom early times man has used garlic (大蒜). The Bible speaks of it. The Israelites (古以色列人) were once far from home. They cried out to Moses, their leader, for the foods they loved: leeks (韭菜), onions, and garlic. The Romans, like the Israelites, loved to eat garlic. And they hung bags of garlic around their necks. _(1) They also thought it would keep them from getting sick.A similar idea is still held. Many people take garlic thinking it will prevent or cure disease. Most doctors say it does no such thing. _(2) Its smell may force people to stay far apart. At least then they cant pass germs on to each other. _(3) What if youre in a play, for instance? Actors have been known to forget their lines because they couldnt stand the garlic smell on a fellow actors breath. Some have even made up new lines and actions that kept them far away from the one who had eaten garlic.Through the years man has tried to cope with the smell of garlic. _(4) We now know why. Its been found that the oils of the garlic do not stick to the teeth, Garlic tongue, or gums (齿龈). They go into the lungs instead. From there they are breathed out. They pass out through the skin too.Strange as it seems, food may have a great deal of garlic in it without smelling or tasting strong. It all depends on how it is cooked. French cooks make a good soup with whole cloves (瓣) of garlic. They use more than thirty cloves in one bowl of soup. But they take care not to crush them. And they cook them whole. _(5) And as the cloves cook they change in some strange way. The soup turns out to be delicious. Its not strong at all.ABut no medicine, mouthwash, chewing gum, or toothpaste seems to help muchBAs a result, the strong oils stay in the cloves.CThey say it may help in one way, though.DMany people eat garlic.EBut keeping your distance can be hard at times.FThey hoped it would keep away the evil eye.答案： F C E A B第6部分：完形填空阅读下面的短文，文中有15处空白，每处空白给出了4个选项，请根据短文的内容从4个选项中选择1个最佳答案。Robots May Allow Surgery in SpaceSmall robots designed by University of Nebraska researchers may allow doctors on Earth to help perform surgery on patients in space.The tiny，wheeled robots，(1)are about 3 inches tall and as wide as a lipstick case，can be slipped into small incisions(切口)and computer-controlled by surgeons in different locations.
