doesnt work，listen to some soft，beautiful music.Still no luck？Try thinking about sheep jumping over a fence.If you are still awake，take a sleeping pill.But people who take pills often become dependent on the drugs.So you lie awake knowing that the new workday will soon arrive.If you have been in such condition for at least one month，you may have primary insomnia (失眠症)A new study has found that you might fall asleep more quickly and stay asleep longer if you try “cerebral hypothermia”It is not a complex medical process.It just means cooling down your brain.Eric Nofzinger and Daniel Buysse from the University of Pittsburgh Medical School led the study.They examined twelve people who had sleeping problems.Twelve others had no sleeping problems.Each of them wore a soft plastic cap on their head at bedtime.The caps had tubes inside filled with water.The researchers moved the water through the tubes and then changed the temperature of the water.Other studies showed that people who had sleeping problems often had more chemical reactions in the front of their brain.The researchers thought cooling down the brain might help.On the first two nights of testing，the patients wore caps with no water.On the next two nights，the caps were worn，but the water was not cooled.Then the researchers cooled the water a little for another two nights.On the final two nights of the study，the temperature of the water was made much cooler.The researchers found that the water caps didnt help the patients until the temperature was about 14.Most of the patients fell asleep faster and slept better when the coolest water was moving around their head.Dr.Nofzinger and Dr.Buysse noted that this was only the beginning of the brain temperature study.But they believed they had discovered something important that needed more research.56The first paragraph is written to_.Aexplain how serious insomnia is Bbring forward the topic of the passageCtell us the causes of sleeping problems Dtell us the danger of having sleeping problems57From the passage we know that“cerebral hypothermia”is actually_.Aa complex medical process Ba psychological treatmentCa simple physical treatment Da difficult scientific theory58In the study，researchers helped people fall asleep faster through_. Aincreasing chemical reactions in the front of their brainBmaking them feel safe with a cap on their headCasking them to drink water to cool downDlowering the temperature of their brain59What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?AThe cause of the study. BThe function of the caps.CSome details of the study. DPeoples reactions to the study.60Dr.Nofzinger and Dr.Buysse seemed to believe that_.Atheir research wouldnt help people greatlyBmore studies would be needed for their research Ccooling down peoples brain might be harmful Dthe results of their study would be made use of soonBHave you ever wondered why each of us has different handwriting？Handwriting，also known as brain writing，is as individual to the person as fingerprints.Occupations，relationships，personal problems as well as healthrelated issues can be identified in a persons writing.Analyzing handwriting goes back to the 1600s and originated in Europe.Is handwriting analysis scientific?OK，you ask，so what traits can be found while analyzing handwriting？Many traits can be shown provided the writing is in cursive(草书的)，because printing has some limitations.Cursive provides the analyst with the upstrokes(向上的一笔) in writing which are very important.Many personality traits including being outgoing，temper，anger towards the opposite sex，generosity and hundreds more can be found when analyzing handwriting.Handwriting is very interesting because not only can you change your personality and watch your writing change as well，but also the reverse is true！Sometimes there are personality traits that we wish we did not have，but we dont know how to get rid of them.One way to change your personality is to use handwriting therapy.The person learns how to change their writing to rid themselves of unwanted traits，and practices this under the watchful eye of a trained graphologist(笔迹学家)Handwriting analysis is becoming a recognized part of therapy.Analyzing handwriting has many different aspects.For instance，it is used in the court of law when dealing with fake documents.Companies are beginning to hire handwriting analysts to assist them in finding the right person for the right job.This is because handwriting analysis is a science it is not guesswork.It is used as a tool to determine the compatibility (适应性) of an individual to the requirements of a job as well as the compatibility of one individual to another.All in all，handwriting analysis is scientific and has endless possibilities.Next time you see someones signature or handwriting，you now know that this persons personality is right out there in front of you，just waiting to be discovered!61Which of the following is not associated with handwriting according to the first paragraph?Afingerprints Boccupations Crelationships Dpersonal problems62Why do people want to make handwriting analysis?ABecause analyzing handwriting goes back to the 1600s.BBecause analyzing handwriting originated in Europe.CBecause many personality traits can be found in handwriting.DBecause printing has some limitations.63What is the main idea of Paragraph 3 ?AHandwriting is very interesting.BHandwriting therapy can help change your personality.CYour personality can change your handwriting.DYour handwriting is hard to change.64Companies hire handwriting analysts_.Ato beautify the employees signature Bto deal with fake documentsCto decide the requirements of a job Dto help find the right employee65We can infer from the last paragraph that_.Athere are still many waiting to be discovered in handwritingBdiscovering a persons personality is difficultChandwriting analysis makes no senseDdifferent people have different handwritingCA group called Story Pirates goes into schools and performs shows for children.But these shows are based on stories written by the children themselves.The grownups are there to help them become better writers.The Story Pirates are active in more than two hundred schools across the United States.Their method is designed to help children learn about the purpose and structure of writing.Actors and teachers known as teacherartists help students write stories.The children feel the pride of ownership in their work and may get to see their story performed.About two hundred actors and teachers are members of the Story Pirates.It was founded in two thousand three.The group is based in Los Angeles and also has performers on the East Coast.The basic program is called the Idea Storm.It involves two visits to a school.On the first visit，the teachers and actors hold a writing workshop at a student assembly.They help students express their ideas.Benjamin Salka，the groups chief executive officer，says they work with children to“open up” their imaginations.But that is only part of the process.Benjamin Salka said，“We work with them on the actual craft and structure of writing.In other words，Story Pirates is not just a creativity and selfesteem building program.It is a writing program.And we focus on elements of structure and style as broad as conflict and creative conflict resolution，and as minute as grammar.”He says they work with students to rewrite and shape their story to improve it.The goal is a final product that can express the ideas that were in the writers head.All the children get comments and suggestions on their work.After about a month，the Story Pirates return to the school.This time，they perform the stories that they have chosen and prepared for the stage.They sing，dance，tell jokes，use puppetswhatever they can do to make the experience fun.A more extensive program can be found at the Bronx Charter School for the Arts in New York City.Ann Ledo is a director for the school，where most of the students are black or Latino and many come from poor families.Ms.Ledo says the work of the actors is an important part of the childrens education.Ann Ledo said，“As a school that has a focus on the arts，we bring the Story Pirates in to further our students experience and understanding of academic content.”Some educators may think of the importance currently placed on testing in schools，and wonder how they can measure the effects of a program like this.But Ann Ledo praises the results.Ann Ledo said，“It really is a magical moment when the kids see their stories come to life.”66What is the main feature of the shows?AThe shows help create more and more better writers.BThe shows are a special course about writing skills.CThe shows are based on stories written by the children themselves.DThe shows are performed by the writers.67From what Benjamin Salka said，we can see that_.Athe program can build up students writing skills as well as creativityBthe program helps to solve the conflicts between studentsCgrammar is the most important part in writingDtheir work with children is just to make children more imaginative68Which of the following is true according to the passage?AThe members of the Story Pirates are teachers only.BThe Story Pirates only performs in famous schools for free.CIdea Storm involves more than two visits to a school.DThe Story Pirates has some performers on the East Coast.69Story Pirates came to the school for the second time to_.Acelebrate the success of their first visitBperform the stories chosen and prepared for the stageChelp students from poor families with academic performanceDreward the students whose stories were chosen70We can infer that_.Amost of the stories written by the students are performedBthe program is mainly intended for students from poor familiesCnot all educators are fully aware of the effects of
