10．Advice to"sleep on it"could be well founded，scientists say．After a good night's sleep a problem that couldn't be solved the night before can often appear more manageable，although the evidence（证据）until now has been personal experience．But researchers at the University of Luebek in Germany have designed an experiment that shows a good night's sleep can improve insight（洞察力）and problem-solving．
"If you have some newly-got memories in your brain，sleep acts on these memories and rebuild them，so that after sleep the insight into problem which you could not solve before increases，"said Dr Jan Born，a neuroscientist（神经病学专家）at the university．To test the theory，they taught volunteers two simple rules to help them turn some numbers into a new order．There was also a third，hidden rule，which could help them increase their speed in solving the problem．The researchers divided the volunteers into two groups：half were allowed to sleep after the training while the rest were forced to stay awake．Dr Jan Born and his team noticed that the group that had slept after the training were twice as likely to figure out the third rule as the other group．"Sleep helped，"Born said in a telephone interview．"The important thing is that you have to have a memory representation in your brain of the problem you want to solve and then you sleep，so it can act on the problem．"But Born admitted that he and his team don't know how rebuilding of memories occurs or what governs it．Pierre Maquet and Perrine Ruby of the University of Liege in Belgium said the experimental evidence supports the suggestions that sleep can help develop creative thinking．Although the role of sleep in human creativity will still be a mystery，the research gives people good reason to fully respect their periods of sleep，they added．

60．The underlined phrase"sleep on it"in Paragraph 1probably meansA．
A．to delay deciding something until the next day
B．to get as much sleep as possible
C．to go on sleeping without being disturbed
D．to sleep till after the time you usually get up in the morning
61．Jan Born and his team carried out the experiment throughA．
A．comparison      B．interview
C．survey          D．imagination
62．It can be inferred from the passage thatC．
A．people should sleep so long as they have time
B．sleep is the only way to solve hard problems
C．people have various periods of sleep
D．people know how sleep rebuilds memories
63．What would be the best title for the passage？B
A．How Sleep Works．                 B．Sleep Helps Solve Problems．
C．No Evidence，But Well Founded．   D．Born's Discovery on Sleep．

11．Parents do need to teach their kids financial responsibility and that money is earned．Still，many child-development experts agree that tying a child's pocket money to chores（琐事） can be a slippery slope．Here's why．
Susie Walton，master instructor at Peace in Your Home advises to keep chores and pocket money totally separate．"Pocket money is one thing．When it comes to chores，life skills，responsibilities-that's a whole different thing．"says Walton．
Walton says，"When kids aren't doing a chore，you don't say，‘well，there goes your pocket money．'You're going to sit them down and ask what's going on．‘We are a team．We are a family．We've got to have them done．'"
Besides，by paying children for chores with pocket money，you'll also be sending the message that work isn't worth doing unless they're getting paid for it．
There are times when it would make sense to pay kids for chores．Most financial and child-development experts agree that it's a fine idea to pay children money for extra jobs that are outside their normal set of chores，such as washing windows，washing the car or helping to clean out the garage-especially if the child is saving for a big item．This may even develop an entrepreneurial （企业家的） spirit to think outside of the box to earn money．
For parents who are concerned that their children won't learn the value of a dollar if the pocket money isn't tied to household chores，note that there are still plenty of money management skills to be learned from a straight allowance．Depending on the age，kids can be made responsible for paying for their own toys or snacks．Some parents even require that kids set aside a percentage of their pocket money toward savings．
"I really like having my own money，"says Kevin，9"It's up to me if I want to buy the cheap toy now，or save and get the better toy．"And that's a good lesson to learn at 9years old．
No matter which pocket money route you take in parenthood，kids will feel empowered by being able to handle their own money．
24．According to Susie Walton，if kids don't do chores，parents shouldB．
A．teach them the entrepreneurial spirit
B．talk to them about family responsibilities．
C．give them a smaller pocket money than usual
D．order them to give a reasonable explanation
25．In Paragraph 6，"a straight allowance"probably means"D"．
A．money given by charity organizations
B．money earned by doing part-time jobs．
C．money earned by doing everyday household chores
D．money given by parents and not dependent on chores
26．What is the author's attitude towards Kevin's action？C
A．Worried．
B．Doubtful．
C．Approving．
D．Unfavorable．
27．The text is mainly aboutB．
A．the importance of kids doing chores
B．whether parents should pay kids for chores
C．Whether it is good or bad to give kids pocket money
D．whether parents should give kids regular pocket money．

7．The United States is faced with serious traffic problems．Too many cars travel on the freeways to and from the city．This heavy traffic causes delays and lots of pollution from cars that are using their engines but not moving anywhere．Many cars going nowhere is called a"traffic jam．"
While many cities in the United States have traffic problems，some of the worst are in Los Angeles，California．Los Angeles is a big city with a large downtown area．One of the reasons why there is so much traffic is that few people use public transportation to get around
Experts say one possible solution to the traffic problem in Los Angeles would be to make
people want to use the public transportation system of buses instead of their own cars．People say the buses should be made easier，faster，less costly and more dependable than driving a car．
One suggestion is to reduce the cost of riding the bus．People who usually drive their cars could save a lot of money on gas and parking costs．Also，Los Angeles could make the buses easier for people to use．The buses could travel to more places in the city．And there could be more special lanes on the freeways that only buses could drive in．These changes would make taking the bus faster and easier than driving a car．
Other experts have said that the best way to ease traffic problems is to charge people money to drive on the freeways．These charges，or tolls，would be for the most crowded roads．The tolls would be in effect during the times of day when most people drive to work and home again．These times in the morning and late afternoon are called"rush hour"．People would try to avoid driving on these roads，which would decrease the amount of traffic．Also，the money collected from these tolls could be used to improve the roads and public transportation system．

8．Robots that can chat，find misplaced glasses，draw aeroplanes and play with your children are drawing thousands of visitors'attention during an expo in Tokyo as Japan adapts to changes in society．
Robots，such as the sound-sensitive Chapit，answer simple questions and even joke with people to help the lonely fight loneliness and stay active in old age．
"Many older people in Japan live alone and have no one to talk to，"said Kazuya Kitamura，a representative of the expo organizer．"Communication robots accompany people and don't mind listening to the same stories over and over again．"
While Chapit，a relatively simple robot，managed to  allure a corporate partner，many researchers，such as Kiyoshi Matsumoto，a professor at the University of Tokyo，struggle to interest sponsors for more expensive projects．
Matsumoto's"Personal Mobility Robot"，equipped with four cameras and a sensor to recognize the user's centre of gravity，is designed to help the elderly move around without pressing buttons，using joysticks（操纵杆） or rotating（转动） wheels as in traditional wheelchairs．
The robot can also help find misplaced glasses by identifying them with a sensor．
"We have developed a robot that can assist many people，but because of the high cost，we still haven't found a sponsor，"said Matsumoto，who added that the cost of the machine，if massproduced，would be comparable to that of a car．
"In the current economic environment there are few companies willing to invest in such a costly project，"he said．
Other robots，such as the award-winning"DiGRO"can support busy parents who have little time to play with their children．
The robot can use the Internet to find a simple image and then draw pictures，keeping children company while their parents work．
Japan has one of the world's fastest-ageing societies and the government predicts that by 2050the proportion of people over 65will reach 40percent．

28．The underlined word"allure"in Paragraph 4can be replaced byA．
A．attract     B．exclude
C．connect     D．strike
29．Why is it difficult to find sponsors for the robots？D
A．Because Japan is suffering economy depression
B．Because the robots are of poor design
C．Because the future market is worrying
D．Because the production of robots costs a lot
30．What is the author's attitude towards the robots referred to？B
A．Unsatisfied．       B．Favorable．
C．Doubtful．          D．Regretful．
31．What can be inferred from the text？C
A．Many children lack love from parents
B．Robots are the most useful to children
C．Robots helpful to the old will be in great demand
D．Robots do better than people in healthcare．
