【题目】 Violin prodigies (神童), I learned, have come in distinct waves from distinct regions. Most of the great performers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries were born and brought up in Russia and Eastern Europe. I asked Isaac Stern, one of the world’s greatest violinists the reason for this phenomenon. “It is very clear,” he told me. “They were all Jews and Jews at the time were severely oppressed and ill-treated in that part of the world. They were not allowed into the professional fields, but they were allowed to achieve excellence on a concert stage.” As a result, every Jewish parent’s dream was to have a child in the music school because it was a passport to the West.
Another element in the emergence of prodigies, I found, is a society that values excellence in a certain field to nurture (培育) talent. Nowadays, the most nurturing societies seem to be in the Far East. “In Japan, a most competitive society, with stronger discipline than ours,” says Isaac Stern, children are ready to test their limits every day in many fields, including music. When Western music came to Japan after World War II, that music not only became part of their daily lives, but it became a discipline as well. The Koreans and Chinese as we know are just as highly motivated as the Japanese.
That’s a good thing, because even prodigies must work hard. Next to hard work, biological inheritance（遗传） plays an important role in the making of a prodigy. J. S. Bach, for example, was the top of several generations of musicians, and four of his sons had significant careers in music.
【1】Jewish parents in Eastern Europe longed for their children to attend music school because ________.
A. it would enable the family to get better treatment in their own country
B. Jewish children are born with excellent musical talent
C. they wanted their children to enter into the professional field
D. it would allow them access to a better life in the West
【2】Which of the following contributes to the emergence of musical prodigies according to the passage?
A. extensive knowledge of music.
B. a natural gift.
C. very early training.
D. a prejudice-free society.
【3】Which of the following titles best summarizes the main idea of the passage?
A. The Making of Music Prodigies
B. Training of Musicians in the World
C. Music and Society
D. Jewish Contribution to Music

【题目】C
Of all the components of a good night’s sleep, dreams seem to be last within our control. In dreams, a window opens into a world where there is zero logic and dead people can speak. A century ago, Freud formulated(创立理论) his revolutionary theory that dreams were the hidden shadows of our unconscious desires and fears; by the late 1970s, neurologists(神经病学家) had switched to thinking of them as just “mental noise”—the random byproducts(副产品) of the neural repair work that goes on during sleep. Now researchers suspect that dreams are regulating moods while the brain is “offline”. And one leading authority says that these intensely powerful mental events actually can be bought under conscious control, to help us sleep and feel better. “It’s your dream,” says Rosalind Cartwright, chair of psychology at Chicago’s Medical Center. “If you don’t like it, change it.”
Evidence from brain imaging supports this view. The brain is as active during rapid eye movement sleep when most vivid dreams occur as it is when fully awake, says Dr. Eric Nofzinger at the University of Pittsburgh. But not all parts of the brain are equally involved: the limbic system or the emotional brain is especially active, while the prefrontal cortex—the center of intellect and reasoning, is relatively quiet. “We wake up from dreams happy or depressed, and those feelings can stay with us all day,” says Stanford sleep researcher Dr. William Dement. This link is shown among the patients in Cartwright’s clinic. Most people seem to have more bad dreams early in the night, progressing toward happier ones before awakening, suggesting that they are working through negative feelings generated during the day. Because our conscious mind is occupied with daily life we don’t always think about the emotional significance of the day’s events—until, it appears, we begin to dream.
There is probably little reason to pay attention to our dreams at all unless they keep us from sleeping or “We wake up in a panic,” Cartwright says. Those suffering from persistent nightmares should seek help from a therapist. For the rest of us, the brain has its ways of working through bad feelings. Sleep or rather dream on it and you’ll feel better in the morning.
【1】 What does Rosalind Cartwright think of dreams?
A. Dreamers can exercise conscious control over them.
B. They are shadows of our unconscious desires and fears.
C. People with more emotional changes dream more often.
D. They are actually products of our brain’s neural repairs.
【2】What is shown in Cartwright’s clinic?
A. The functions of vivid dreams.
B. The relation of dreams to emotions.
C. The functions of different brain parts.
D. The secret of rapid eye movement sleep.
【3】Casual nightmare sufferers are advised to .
A. ask for medical help
B. relax their mind during the day
C. don’t take the dreams seriously
D. realize the emotional significance of daily events

【题目】Bearing a resemblance to the forest-surrounded "Love Tunnel" in Ukraine, the two-kilometer tunnel in Jiangning district Nanjing saw a recent rise in popularity as more than 2,000 tourists paid a visit every day this summer. The high number of visitors caused traffic safety concerns and increased the workload of sanitation workers. The Nanjing government had intended to cut the trees by end of 2014; After the Nanjing government was forced to draft plans to cut the trees due to public pressure, visitors poured into a railway section that runs through thick forest for sightseeing and to take photos this weekend, leaving the railway with overwhelming piles of trash.
However, in response to the government’s plan, complaints and outcries were made by the citizens that the love tunnel should be reserved. They claim that walking along the leafy green tunnel is like entering a fairytale, and a possible decision to tear down the trees could bring the story to a pitiful end.
