In much of Asia， especially the so-called “rice bowl” cultures of China， Japan， Korea，1Vietnam， food is usually eaten with chopsticks.

Chopsticks are usually two long， thin pieces of wood or bamboo. They can also be made of plastic， animal bone or metal. Sometimes chopsticks are quite artistic.2（true） elegant （雅致的） chopsticks might3（make） of gold and silver with Chinese characters. Skilled workers also put various hardwoods and metal together4（create） special designs.

The Chinese have used chopsticks for five thousand years.People probably cooked their food in large pots，5（use） twigs （樹枝） to pick it up. Over time，6the population grew， people began cutting food into small pieces so it would cook more quickly. Food in small pieces could be eaten easily with twigs which gradually7（turn） into chopsticks.

Some people think that the great Chinese scholar Confucius， who lived from roughly 551 BC to 479 BC， influenced the8（develop） of chopsticks. Confucius believed9（knife） would remind people of killings and were too violent for use at the table.

Chopsticks are not used everywhere in Asia. In India， for example， most people traditionally eat10their hands.

Imagine entering a very large building and you have no idea how to get to the office you are looking for. But then， as youre standing there， a nearly silent balloon floats over to you and speaks to you. It asks you where you want to go. You tell it， and then it simply says “follow me” like a childs game， and begins to float off in the direction of your destination. It keeps going， as you follow， leading you to where you want to go.

The guide works itself， without any help from any human being. It says hello to people as they arrive in the building， speaks to them， processes their requests and then guides them to the destinations.

The balloon has two tiny fans to help keep it floating and to provide just a touch of lift. Onboard is a wireless receiver for receiving directions from a computer that directs the fans and sensors （傳感器） that let it know where objects are around it.

The idea of such a simple robot is one that has been on the minds of scientists for years， and has been mentioned in novels many times. Today the iPhone does something similar but has to be connected to the Internet which is sometimes difficult. This is why this little balloon might be the wave of the future—because it is so much easier to follow！

1. What is the balloon mentioned in the passage used to do？

A. Lead the way. B. Bring people joy.

C. Catch criminals. D. Welcome visitors.

2. What does the underlined word “processes” in Paragraph 2 probably mean？

A. Asks for. B. Refuses.

C. Deals with. D. Repeats.

3. The balloon wont hit any object with the help of _____ .

A. sensors B. two tiny fans

C. a wireless receiver D. human beings

4. What can we learn about the robot from the last paragraph？

A. The idea of it is new.

B. It is difficult to make.

C. It has been widely used.

D. It may become popular in the future.

Cities usually have a good reason for being where they are， like a nearby port or river. People settle in these places because they are easy to get to and naturally suited to communications and trade. New York City， for example， is near a large harbor at the mouth of the Hudson River. Over 300 years its population grew gradually from 800 people to 8 million. But not all cities develop slowly over a long period of time. Boom towns （新興城市） grow from nothing almost overnight. In 1896， Dawson， Canada， was unmapped wilderness （荒野）. But gold was discovered there in 1897， and two years later， it was one of the largest cities in the West， with a population of 30，000.

Dawson did not have any of the natural conveniences of cities like London or Paris. People went there for gold. They traveled over snow-covered mountains and sailed hundreds of miles up icy rivers. The path to Dawson was covered with thirty feet of wet snow that could fall without warning. An avalanche （雪崩） once closed the path， killing 63 people. For many who made it to Dawson， however， the rewards were worth the difficult trip. Of the first 20，000 people who dug for gold， 4，000 got rich. About 100 of these stayed rich men for the rest of their lives.

But no matter how rich they were， Dawson was never comfortable. Necessities like food and wood were very expensive. But soon， the gold that Dawson depended on had all been found. The city was crowded with disappointed people with no interest in settling down， and when they heard there were new gold discoveries in Alaska， they left Dawson City as quickly as they had come. Today， people still come and go—to see where the Canadian gold rush happened. Tourism is now the most important industry of Dawson City—its present population is 762.

5. What attracted the early settlers to New York City？

A. Its business culture. B. Its small population.

C. Its favorable climate. D. Its geographical position.

6. What do we know about those who first dug for gold in Dawson？

A. Two-thirds of them stayed there.

B. One out of five people got rich.

C. Almost everyone gave up.

D. Half of them died.

7. What was the main reason for many people to leave Dawson？

A. They wanted to try their luck elsewhere.

B. They were unable to stand the winter.

C. They found the city too crowded.

D. They were short of food.

8. What is the text mainly about？

A. Journeys into the wilderness.

B. The rise and fall of a city.

C. The gold rush in Canada.

D. Tourism in Dawson.

You have just won five million yuan in a lottery （彩票）—how would you spend it？ Before you know it， ten minutes had gone on daydreaming. There is a time and a place for daydreaming， but we dont have much control over that. Isnt it worrying that about 30 to 50 percent of our waking time is spent daydreaming？ What if your dentist is having that lottery daydream while removing your rotten tooth？

Some studies suggest daydreaming makes us unhappy because we are not focusing on what is around us but are instead thinking about the past or future. However， a recent study published in the journal Neuropsychologia finds that mind-wandering （走神） can be of benefit to us. The researchers measured the brain patterns of more than 100 people using an MRI （核磁共振成像） scanner. This data was compared with tests on creative ability and a questionnaire on how much their minds usually wandered. Those whose minds wandered the most scored higher in creative ability tests and had more efficient brain systems measured in the MRI machine.

Being efficient at mind-wandering means you can zone out and then naturally tune back in without missing any important point or step. Christine Godwin， the lead author of the latest study from the Georgia Institute of Technology， says that if you are focusing on difficult tasks， your performance will drop if your mind wanders. “But when tasks are easy， people who have high cognitive ability can let their minds wander because it does not affect their performance. You may be thinking about upcoming goals or problem-solving. These are some of the good sides to mind-wandering.”

Mind-wandering can vary between being more practical or more emotional. What mind-wandering seems to be best at， researchers say， is coming up with new solutions to old problems. So， its not always a waste of time！

1. The first paragraph serves as a（n）_____ .

A. explanation B. introduction

C. comment D. background

2. The study published in Neuropsychologia shows that _____ .

A. daydreaming makes us unhappy

B. we are focusing on the past or future

C. mind-wandering is related to creative ability

D. MRI scanner is helpful in measuring the brain patterns

3. What does the underlined phrase “zone out” in Paragraph 3 mean？

A. Get distracted. B. Focus on.

C. Be affected. D. Have control.

4. What does the text mainly talk about？
