deeper than that The brain is not passive while you sleep scientist Anat Arzi said It s quite active You can do many things while you are asleep Arzi and her coworkers didn t try to teach the sleeping volunteers any complex information like new words or facts Instead the scientists taught volunteers to make new connections between smells and sounds When we smell something good like a flower we take deep breaths When we smell something bad we take short breaths Arzi and her co workers based their experiment on these reactions Once the volunteers fell asleep in the lab the scientists went to work They gave them a whiff of something pleasant and meanwhile played a particular musical note They didn t wake up but they heard and sniffed 吸气 deeply Then the scientists gave the volunteers a whiff of something terrible and played a different musical note Again the volunteers heard and smelled a short snort this time but didn t wake up The researchers repeated the experiment After just four repetitions volunteers made a connection between the musical notes and their paired smells When the scientists played the musical tone that went with good smells the sleepers breathed deeply And when the scientists played the musical tone that went with bad smells the sleepers breathed briefly despite there being no bad smell The next day the volunteers woke up with the sound smell connection They breathed deeply when hearing one tone and cut their breaths short when hearing the other which must have been unusual for them Imagine walking down the street and taking a deep breath upon hearing a particular sound 57 In the study the volunteers were taught A to become active during sleep B to tell the difference between smells C to learn new words and scientific facts D to make sound smell connections 58 How did the volunteers react when smelling something nice and hearing musical notes 7 A They took a deep breath B They had a wonderful dream C They woke up at once D They took a short breath 59 When the volunteers woke up the next day they A learned how to play to musical tones B forgot what happened during their sleep C continued with the sound smell connection D changed their reaction when hearing the sound 60 The passage mainly tell us A special smells and sounds can improve our memory B our brain can actually learn something new during sleep C the volunteers will always hear similar sounds on the street D our brain can tell the difference between smells during sleep D Almost every person uses the Web for something nowadays This is a good idea since it is useful for so many different things When you consider its speed and convenience you will understand that there isn t any reason to use any other means to complete everyday jobs Just consider the convenience factor when you need quick simple information Looking for a movie can take just minutes by jumping online as opposed to going and getting a newspaper and then hoping it has the theater that interests you It is also a great way to find a restaurant for the evening From the online yellow pages to the various websites of different eateries 餐馆 there are many different choices of spots to gather information Find old friends from school by joining in one of the endless groups that have been created to put people together Information is just so easy to get when you are using the Web Find out

type get their work completed Businesses also have a huge existence on the Web A company might only have a simple website to give directions and its location There are many of us who now depend on the

Web B sites devoted to helping students are difficult to find C an online dictionary is expensive for students to use D products on the Web are cheaper than those in a store 62 The following are

of your past successes Know that failure is good too We all fail at something at some point in our lives So how does one deal with failure Here are some ways you can deal with failure and turn your failure into a success 65 Many people who ve experienced failure always go into a shell They cut themselves off from friends and family This is understandable but not healthy When you are alone and don t share your feelings you feel the burden of failure weighing on you more Instead keep the channel of communication open Don t cut yourself off from the world Yes you failed but remember it is just a single failure and not the end of the world 66 When failure has you down and depressed the best way to lift your spirits is to think back to the times when you achieved success Apart from making you feel better it might also help you rediscover some of the things that led to your past successes 67 This might seem like a stupid suggestion However thinking about your past failures might help bring back memories of how you coped then and how you turned that failure into a success Also think about the many successful moments
