Children need time to stand and stare(凝视). They should be allowed to get bored so that they can develop their ability to be creative(有创造力的).Children are expected by their parents to be reading a textbook all the time. However, research shows that it may hamper the ability to imagine, because boredom can give them opportunities to develop creativity.Boredom often comes with loneliness, but a writer named Meera Syal said boredom had helped her in developing her mind. She told researchers about her childhood. Having few things to do, Syal often talked with her neighbours. She also tried to do things like learning to bake cakes. But importantly, I thought and wrote a lot, because I was bored, Syal said. She kept a diary, filling her time with short stories and poems she made up.Grayson Perry, an artist, grew up in a family with little money. During his childhood, he enjoyed himself by making up stories, drawing pictures for his stories and reading many books in the library. Bored but free, he spent hours looking out of the window, watching the changing clouds and seasons. Perry filled up his free time with what he liked. He became creative, because he could think freely.Dr. Belton is doing researches on boredom. Boredom could be an uncomfortable feeling, she said. But some young people cannot do with that boredom creatively. So sometimes they may break a classroom window, or drive a car out very fast. Usually, when children have nothing to do, they would turn on the TV, the computer, or the phone. Their time on these things has increased, yet they need to have time to think about their experiences through playing or just watching the world around them. It is this kind of thinking that can inspire(激发) the imagination. On the other hand, the TV or phone may cut short the thinking process. That can be bad to the development of creativity. For developing the ability to be creative, Dr. Belton advised, perhaps we need to stand stare, and stay off-line from time to time.（1） The underlined word hamper in Paragraph 2 is the closest to . A . increaseB . startC . stopD . discover（2） When Meera Syal felt bored, she did the following things EXCEPT .

Its boring for children to think about their experiences.C . Its much better for children to be busy than to be bored.D . Children need time to get bored instead of doing schoolwork.3. （10分） (2019九上深圳开学考) 阅读理解 Have you got an eReader? Are you thinking of getting one? We asked some eReaders owners to give us their opinions. There are many things that people like about eReaders. eReaders are really light, weighing less than most paperbacks, said Nathan Jones, a market researcher. You can hold the book and turn the pages with one hand. An eReader is definitely more comfortable to read in bed or if youre lying on a sofa, plus mines got a light so I can read in bed at night without disturbing my partner. Another big advantage is that you can store hundreds of books on them. eReaders are perfect for travel, said Kiera Smith. You can have lots of books in one device, instead of carrying loads of books in your luggage. The search functions are also popular. You can look for a character by their name or for a place just by typing in the word. Thats really useful, said Megan Malone, a sales executive. One user liked the function for increasing font size. Ive got poor eyesight, explained Harvey Callaghan, an engineer. But the eReader is perfect for me as I can increase the font size. And Jennifer Saunders said, I like eReaders because theyre ecological. If we buy an ebook, were helping to save trees as they dont use paper. Also, my eReader is solarpowered, so it only uses renewable energy. Best of all is the availability of hundreds of free books online. Project Gutenberg has millions of titles and theyre all free to download, said another user.One of the biggest complaints is that you cant find certain titles. Many books are simply not available in electronic form, said Daisy Madison, an estate agent. If you want a specific book, one that is older, perhaps, or not a bestseller, it wont be available at least, that was my experience. Others complained about the small delay in turning pages. The gap between pressing the next page button and the screen showing the page is really annoying, said Joel Bray, a shop assistant. Also, you cant flick between pages so easily.So, what do you think?（1） What is Project Gutenberg in the 3rd paragraph? A . A history book.B . The man who created eReaders.C . A free electronic book library.D . A publishing house.（2） Which one of the statements about eReaders is NOT true? A . eReaders are environmental-friendly.B . Your roommates wont complain when you read eReaders at night.C . Its more convenient to take eReaders during travel.D . You can look for a character with eReaders by turning pages quickly.（3） What kind of person are eReaders NOT suitable for? A . A salesman who is often on a business trip.B . A housewife who likes reading on bed.C . A professor who studies ancient history.D . An old man who has poor eyesight.（4） What may be the authors opinion on eReaders? A . eReaders have an advantage over traditional books in every way.B . It depends on peoples needs whether to buy eReaders or not.C . People should choose eReaders instead of paper books for environmental reasons.D . The disappointing weakness of eReaders will be improved.4. （10分） 阅读下面短文，从下面每小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Venice is well-known for its places of interest, natural beauty and culture.
