Dr Robert White thinks he knows a of help. He thinks doctors should make the hurt brain to live for 30 minutes without blood. This gives the doctor time to do something for the brain. Dr White experimented his on fifteen monkeys. he taught them to do different jobs. Then he operated on them. He made the monkeys’ blood go a machine. When the brains’ was 10℃,he stopped the blood to the brain. After 30 minutes, he turned the blood back on. He the blood again. After their operations, the monkeys were almost before. They were healthy and busy. Each one could still do the job the doctor them.

They can be seen more frequently than ever before on college campuses, wearing flannel(法兰绒) and thick?framed glasses while listening to music. One might find them playing unusual musical instruments, shopping at second?hand stores or expressing themselves in other unique ways.

They call themselves hipsters. Being “hip” used to mean following the latest fashion. But gradually the word has become a sign of “being cool, unique and unusual”.

Hipsters value independent thinking, progressive politics, an appreciation of creativity and intelligence. Hipsters take pains and pride in not being mainstream. However, their culture has become quite trendy. This irony(讽刺) is central to their culture and offers an interesting conflict.

“I do take things in the mainstream with a positive attitude,” says Ben Polson, a college student at Brown University. “But sometimes I also question what determines popularity, especially regarding music.” Polson represents many hipsters.

When less?known bands become popular, they often lose their former fan base in exchange for a new one. There is a famous hipster saying that goes, “I used to like that band before it got popular,” Polson quoted.

According to Polson, bands' music changes when they go mainstream. They become less experimental, doing things just to save popularity and fans. The original elements that we were drawn to slowly disappear for the sake of popularity.

Many young adults have started to view hipsters' outlook as cool and they are adopting hipsters' anti?mainstream culture mind to themselves. This has led to specialized brands, stores and music for the hipster consumers. But on the other hand, some such stores, including clothing labels Urban Outfitters and American Apparel, have gained mainstream popularity. This has seemingly made the anti?mainstream culture become weaker.

“A lot of people that are self?defined hipsters aren't really hipsters. They're just trying to act as hipsters to seem cooler,” says Amanda Leopold, a college student from Oberlin College, US. Although Leopold has many unusual tastes and seems quite individualist, she refuses to classify herself as a hipster.

1.In the passage, hipsters refer to people ________.

A.who are fans of pop music

B.who study in different colleges

C.who appear cool and unusual

D.who try to attract others

2.According to the author, ________.

A.hipsters are the pioneers of the mainstream

B.hipsters are unhappy with the mainstream

C.hipsters' culture exists mainly in music field

D.hipsters' culture can also become popular

3.What is the main idea of the seventh paragraph?

A.Urban Outfitters and American Apparel are famous clothing labels.

B.Hipster consumers have more specialized brands, stores and music.

C.Anti?mainstream culture can gain mainstream popularity.

D.The culture of hipsters is becoming more and more terrible.

4.When describing hipsters, the author speaks ________.

A.in an ironic voice B.in an objective voice

C.in an angry voice D.in a funny voice

Angry Birds has become a worldwide gaming mega hit but how did this game come into existence? Rovio is the name of the company that created angry birds, however, it's not the first game they developed. Surprisingly they have been creating games for several years but had just never broken through into the mainstream the way they did with angry birds. The idea for the game came about in 2009 when the company was looking at different ideas for games which they thought could become popular. It was a simple idea spawned from some sketches(素描) of wingless and legless birds which were angry.

The sketches caught on among the staff who in turn created a unique design which became angry birds. The pigs were added into the game later in the development as an enemy. During this period of development, pig flu was being heavily reported in the news which is where the idea for the pigs appeared.

The basis of the game is very simple and is not unique to angry birds but has been seen in many other games previously. It's a simple physics/puzzle game. The player is given a slingshot and a limited supply of angry birds with different characteristics. Some birds are faster than others while others can be split into multiple birds. You control the trajectory(轨迹) of the birds with the slingshot which launches them towards rickety structures containing your main enemy, the pigs. In order to advance to the next level you must eliminate(消灭) all of the pigs before your birds run out.

Rovio has released several different versions of the game at this point. The original, Seasons, and Rio. Seasons is a collection of holiday themed versions of the game while Rio was a movie tie in for the movie Rio. All versions continue to be updated with new levels which are free to those who have previously purchased the game.

1.What's the meaning of the underlined word in the first paragraph?

A.Turned. B.Played a role.

C.Changed. D.Came into being.

2.In the game, the birds ________.

A.have different kinds that only include faster birds and slower birds

B.have to be controlled to kill all of the pigs before your birds run out

C.are the enemy of the pigs which have been infected with pig flu

D.lose their temper for the pig flu so they try to kill the pigs

3.According to the text, the game players ________.

A.must pay for this game—angry birds one level by one level

B.only pay for once and then it will be updated freely

C.should control angry birds to kill all the animals with pig flu

D.will become angry easily for playing the game too much

4.Which one is the best title of the passage?
