These are called multi-meaning words.Multi-meaning words have the same pronunciation with different meanings. For example, lets look at the word “ball”. You could have a “ball” which means you would have a good time. You could toss a “ball” which means you throw an object. You could be on the “ball” which means you know what is happening. You could go to a “ball” which means a dance._Take the word “can”. You “can” ride a bike which means you are able to ride a bike. You have a “can” of soup which means the soup is in a round-shaped holder. You can do the “can-can” which is a dance from the 1920s. And you might get “canned” if you do a poor job at work, which means you might lose your job.How about “fly”? You can “fly” an airplane or you can hit a “fly” that is on your food in your house. Or, you can “fly by the seat of your pants” which means you dont make a plan before taking an action. And, you know that the “fly” of a zipper（拉链）is the top part of the zipper.There are hundreds of words that are multi-meaning words. The word “set” has more meanings than any other word in the English language. When you have time, why dont you try to think of all the ways the word “set” is used?If you look at the title of this book Can a Fly, Fly? . you know that the answer is “Yes” because you have seen an insect named a “fly” go up in the air and move around through the airwhich is what “fly” means. Can a Fly, Fly? Of course, it can!（1）If Tom is often late for work and fails to finish his tasks, he will_ A . do the can-canB . get cannedC . be on the ballD . go to a ball（2）According to the passage, the word “_” has the most meanings in the English language.

Then you see a nice pie in the fridge. Do you eat it? It seems that you shouldnt, for many reasons, including its influence on your studies.Scientists have long known that eating late at night can make us gain weight. But now a new study has shown that late-night eating can also have a bad influence on our brains it might hurt our ability to learn new things and store memories.“We believe that late-night eating may affect (影响) our learning by affecting the parts of the brain that control learning and memory,” Dawn Loh, PhD, a project scientist at the University of California, Los Angeles, said, “We believe the timing of when we eat is the main cause of the damaged (受损的) memory.”For the study, the researchers looked at mice with strict feeding plans. For two weeks, the mice were either allowed to eat during the time when they are usually the most active, or during the time when they usually sleep. The mice received the same amount(数量) of sleep and calories.Then the researchers tested the brains of the mice. In one test, the researchers tried to find out whether the mice could remember that a room was connected to an electric shock(电击) after 24 hours had gone by.The researchers noticed that, when the mice were put in the room again, those mice that ate when they should have been sleeping were less likely(可能的) to get scared than those mice that ate during usual hours. It means that they didnt remember.So think twice before the midnight snack it might be bad for more than your weight.（1）What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to（指代）?A . Studying for long.B . A nice pie.C . A new study.D . Late-night eating.（2）For the study, the researchers need .A . to check the brains of the mice before the test startedB . to feed the mice only during the time when they usually sleepC . to keep the mice in a room with an electric shock all the time .D . to let the mice receive the same amount of sleeep and calories.（3）According to the passage, which of the following sentences is TRUE?A . A recent study shows late eating affects weight.B . What we eat can affect learning and memory.C . The mice that ate during sleeping hours didnt remember.D . The mice that ate during usual hours didnt remember.（4）Which of the following could be the best title of the passage?A . Eating snacks affects memoryB . Late eating hurts brainC .
