But when the bell for the next class rings, you cant believe how quickly time has passed. If you have this experience, youll know how time flies when you are having fun and drags when you are bored. Now scientists have come up with a reason why this happens.They have found that the brain changes its way to work according to how we direct our attention to a task. When we are bored, we pay more attention to how time is passing. And this makes our brains think the clock is ticking more slowly.Recently some researchers who want to understand the conditions carried out an experiment. In the experiment, twelve volunteers watched a picture while researchers monitored(关注) their brain activity.The volunteers were told to first notice how long a picture appeared, then the color of the picture, and thirdly, study the both. The results showed that the brain was more active when the volunteers paid attention to more subjects.It is thought that if the brain is busy noticing many aspects(方面) of a task, it has to spread it resources, and pays less attention to the clock. Therefore, time seems to go quickly. If the brain is not so active, it spends its full energy on the passing of time. As a result, time seems to move slowly.Next time you feel bored in class, perhaps you should concentrate(专心于) on what the teacher is saying.（1）What does the underlined word drags probably mean? A . passes slowlyB . runs quicklyC . moves activelyD . goes silently（2）What have the scientists found? A . Time goes by fast when we have nothing to do.B . The ten minutes break is important to students.C . The brain works in different ways in different situations.D . Students pay more attention to the pictures than the passing of time.（3）Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A . We will be full of energy if were busy.B . Concentrating on things is a way to make people less bored.C . Time goes slowly when the brain is noticing many things at the same time.D . We should pay no attention to time when we are doing something.（4）Which is the best title of the passage? A . The best way to save timeB . The importance of planning timeC . Why time passes quicklyD . The reason for time flying and dragging4. （6分） People have used pigeons to carry messages to one another for hundreds of years. In the 12th century, the royal palaces of Iraq and Syria included pigeon houses so the kings could be kept informed of their generals victories and defeats on the battlefield. In fact, pigeons were a common way to send messages right up through World War II.Many countries, such as the United States, England, France, Germany, and Italy, in both World War I and World War II, used carrier pigeons. Not only were the birds often the fastest, most reliable way to send messages, they could also be used to reach soldiers far behind enemy lines, where radios and field telephone lines were useless. Since they could easily be released (释放) from airplanes or ships, every branch of the armed services used the birds. In World War II, more than 3,000 soldiers and 150 officers were needed to care for and train the tens of thousands of birds in the U.S. Pigeon Service.Carrying messages could be a dangerous job. Some pigeons performed with such bravery that they became famous and were even awarded medals, such as Englands Dicken Medal of Gallantry. In a few cases, pigeons even became prisoners of war. In 1918 American forces captured a pigeon named Kaiser, which had been trained to fly special missions for Germany during battle. He was taken to America, where he lived to the age of 32. The most famous pigeon of all may have been Cher Ami. Stationed in France during World War I, he carried twelve important messages for American forces. On his last mission, though wounded, he carried a message that saved the lives of 194 American soldiers. For his extraordinary service, he was awarded the French “Croix de Guerre.”Carrier pigeons are a slightly different breed (品种) from the kind of pigeons you see on city streets. They are much thinner and taller, with longer legs. Many people find carrier pigeons ugly because of their big wattle, a bent buildup of skin on the beak（鸟嘴）; however, people who raise pigeons often enjoy this strange appearance and consider carriers the best of their breed.Today, modern communication methods can carry information from one place to another hundreds of times faster than a pigeon could do. However, few people would argue with the fact that carrier pigeonsespecially those that served in the militaryhave earned their place in history. Stories about brave pigeons such as Cher Ami, President Wilson, and Colonels Lady have the power to inspire us as no fax machine or high-speed Internet connection could ever do. （1）Many countries used carrier pigeons in the war because_.A . they could be believed inB . they were easily raisedC . they could reach the enemy linesD . they could hardly be found by airplanes（2）Which is the best example to show the bravery of carrier pigeons?A . Carrier pigeons could fly to places where radios and telephone lines were uselessB . For his extraordinary service, Cher Ami was awarded the French “Croix de Guerre”C . In World War II, more than 3,000 soldiers were needed to care for and train the pigeons.D . In the 12th century, kings in Iraq were kept informed of the victories and defeats by pigeons.（3）From the passage, we can learn _.A . how carrier pigeons developed in historyB . how to train carrier pigeons to get victoryC . carrier pigeons played an important role in the wars in the old daysD . pigeons inspired soldiers to fight before high-speed Internet invented5. （8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。 Which animal do you think is the king of the animals, the elephant, the lion or the tiger?

It comes from the Greek words that mean to write with light. But photography could only give people static pictures. So scientists were trying hard to find ways to make pictures that can move. They made lots of experiments, but failed again and again. It was Eadweard Muybridge who finally succeeded. He was the first photographer to try this successfully. But how did he make it? It was an interesting story.Back in 1872, people didnt know exactly(确切地) whether all four of a horses hooves(蹄) left the ground at the same time when it was running. A gentleman called Leland Stanford made a bet with his friend about it. Most people believed that a horse always had one hoof on the ground, or it would fall over. But Stanford didnt think so.At that time, it was hard to know who could win the bet, because a horses legs move so fast that it is impossible to tell just by looking. So they needed a way to record the movement of a running horse. Then Stanford offered $ 25,000 to the famous photographer, Muybridge, to help find the answer. In the beginning, Muybridge failed to get clear images, but he didnt give up. He continued to improve his cameras. In 1878, after many experiments, he managed to get a sequence(连续) of 12 photos. One of them clearly showed that all four of the horses hooves were off the ground at the same time. And when the photos moved fast, people could see a horse running.Though Edison is usually considered as the person who created the first movie in 1889, it was the work of Eadweard Muybridge and the bet that led to Edisons invention.（1）The underlined word static in Paragraph 1 most probably means . A . prettyB . darkC . movingD . still（2）What did Leland Stanford make a bet with his friend about? A . Whose horse ran faster.B . Whether a horse would fall over while running.C . Whether it was possible for scientists to make moving pictures.D . Whether a horses hooves all left the ground at the same time while running.（3）Muybridge finally found the exact answer to the bet in .A . 1839B . 1872C . 1878D . 1889（4）The passage mainly tells us . A . that Thomas Edison created the first movieB . that Eadweard Muybridge created the first static picturesC . how photography helped people know more about animalsD . how Eadweard Muybridge got pictures of motion(移动) successfully三、 单词拼写 (共6题；共15分)7. （1分）People think that more and more _ （亚洲人）are eating fast food and getting fat fast. 8. （10分）根据短文括号内所给汉语意思，在空白处写出单词的正确形式。每空一词Last _ (圣诞节) Day, when I was at the street _ （角落）, a car _ （经过） by.

Is the glass half empty or half full? This question can represent a situation where there is both opportunity(机会) and trouble, but people with different point of views see the same situation in different ways. Ask yourself this question and see what kind of person you are.If your answer is half empty, it shows that you tend to look on the dark side of things. You are a negative-thinking person. You are worried about what you dont have or what you have lost more than what you already or still have. In other words, you are a pessimist(悲观主义者).If you see the glass as half full, you tend to look on the bright side of things. You are a positive-thinking person. You know you should take the opportunity that comes your way rather than worry about getting into trouble. This is to say, you are an optimist.We dont live in a perfect world, but if we can change the way we see things, the things we see will change.（1）Whats on the table? （2）According to the article, which two sides does a thing usually have? （3）Do you think you are an optimist?
