She wrote the first book in a coffee shop. Was it because she felt more creative when working there? The answer might be yes.Scientists found that moderate (适度的) noise can make people more creative, The New York Times reported.Scientists did tests on students. They divided them into four groups. They then asked the students to do certain tasks involving creative thinking. But each group did the task with different volumes (音量) of background noise. They found that students did best when working under moderate noise70 decibels (分贝). This is about the same volume of background noise in a cafe. Students did worse in low noise (50 dB). This is the volume of a quiet room. They did the poorest when in a high-noise (85 dB) environment. This is the noise level in a factory.Moderate noise can distract (分心) people just enough so that they think more creatively. It helps you think outside the box, Raci Mehta, a lead researcher in the study, said to the Business Standard. On the one hand, working in a very quiet place can strengthen our focus. But it also stopsus from thinking abstractly (抽象).This is why if you are too focused on a problem and you cant solve it, said Mehta, you leave it for some time and then come back to it and youll get the solution.However, the scientists said that when you need to do detailed things, like proofreading (校对) a paper, a quiet place is better than a noisy one.（1）The first paragraph tells us that _. A . J.K. Rowling likes drinking coffeeB . working in a coffee shop might help people become creativeC . the best novels are born in coffee shopsD . moderate noise makes people creative（2）_ helps students do best in creative tasks. A . 85 dBB . 70 dBC . 50 dBD . 0 dB（3）Working in a very quiet place can _. A . help people think outside the boxB . make people think abstractlyC . help people find the solution easilyD . help people focus on their work（4）The main idea of the passage is _. A . how to work under a moderate noise levelB . why J. K. Rowling likes to write stories in a coffee shopC . why moderate noise is good for creative thinkingD . how scientists tested students learning abilities四、 、单词拼写，根据下列句子中所给汉语注释，写出空缺处各单词的正 (共5题；共5分)12. （1分）The basketball players are from_(俄国). 13. （1分） Could you take a_(信息) for him?
