In addition, the participants filled out a questionnaire about how much their mind wandered in daily life.

22、The researchers made several interesting connections. People who reported more frequent daydreaming during the day scored higher on creative and intellectual tests. Their MRIs also showed they had more efficient brain systems-meaning different regions of the brain were more in pace with each otherco

27、fossil (化石的) fuels and a reduction in air and water pollution. Most scientists agree that such changes are necessary to protect our environment from further harm.The construction industry consumes a large quantity of energy and resources and creates a huge amount of pollution.

More energy and expense are needed for larger buildings as well, so it is important to build small.Green ro

34、ofs are another feature of green houses that reduce energy use and cost. These roofs are partially or completely covered with plants, which helps to keep heating and cooling costs low, prevent water running off and deal with pollutants.Other features of green buildings often include energy and water

35、 conservation, recycling and waste reduction. In addition, renewable energy sources such as solar power, hydropower (水能) and wind power are used for heat and electricity, which greatly reduces costs and decreases the impact on the environment.1、What is the text mainly about?AThe necessity of promoti

43、 Davids unique business has really angered lots of people, who talk of inequality in America, saying it is so insane for the wealthy to pay $15 to sharpen a pencil.

47、ted to rules during this period. This need to fix the English language is best illustrated (描述) in the making of The Dictionary of the English Language by Samuel Johnson. Guides to the English language had been in existence before Johnson began his project in 1746. These, however, were often little

48、more than lists of hard words. When definitions of common words were supplied, they were often unhelpful.

49、rking in the worst of conditions. Supported only by his publisher, Johnson worked on the Dictionary with five assistants.

50、alanced on a chair with only three legs, Johnson sat against a wall in a room filled with books. Johnson would read widely from these books, mark passages illustrating the use of a particular word, and give the books to his assistants so that they could copy the passages on slips of paper.

54、grapher” in paragraph 4 refer to?AA publisher.BA biographer.CA maker of dictionaries.DAn assistant.3、What can we infer about Samuel Johnson from the text?AHe standardized English.BHe cared about authority a lot.CHe gained much financial support.DHe complained of working conditions.4、What is the purp
