阅读理解     A lot of teachers hate doodlers(乱写乱画的人)during classes. "Pay attention!" Teachers will often
warn doodling students, sure that they must be daydreaming.
     However, according to a recent study, doodling while listening to a boring lecture helps concentrate(集中)the attention:
     Andrade, a psychology professor in England asked participants to listen to a boring lecture. Half the
participants were told to color in squares and circles freely on a piece of paper while listening to the
lecture. The other half weren’t given a task. After it was over, the participants were asked to retell the
lecture.    
     Those given the doodling task (color in squares and circles) remembered 29 percent more information
than the non-doodlers. Andrade said.   
     "If someone is doing a boring task, like listening to a dull conversation, they may start daydream,"
said Professor Andrade.
    "Daydreaming distracts(使分心)them from the task, resulting in poorer performance. A  simple task,
like doodling, can stop them from daydreaming without affecting their performance at the task," he said.    
     So the next time you"re doodling during a class, and you hear "pay attention", you can tell the teacher
with confidence that you"ve been paying attention to every word.  
1. The passage mainly tells us              .A. doodling will be banned(禁止) in classes  
B. teachers are against doodling
C. doodling may help concentrate    
D. doodling can lead to daydream2. Teachers hate doodlers because they thought               .A. doodlers are not good at study      
B. doodlers are doing no task 
C. doodlers pay no attention in class  
D. doodlers are not polite to them3. According to the text, it is helpful to doodle when               .  A. a boring lecture is given            
B. an interesting story is told
C. watching a long TV program      
D. having a conversation with the teacher4. Professor Andrade thinks                .   A. those given the doodling task can remember less information
B. if you have daydream during classes you"ll have a good memory
C. daydreaming is better than doodling
D. doodling can stop us from daydreaming5. We can learn from the text that                .  A. doodling is the best way to draw attention
B. daydreaming is different from doodling
C. doodling will be helpful in any occasion
D. every student should doodle in class

阅读理解。     John Hunter had three advantages.He had a brother who was a doctor and he thus able
to learn about diseases and their effects.His natural curiosity led him to observe and study
the lives of wild animals in the countryside and he had strong and skillful hands,so essential
to a surgeon.In fact he became in a short time so famous that he was asked to lecture,but
John preferred the practical work of the surgeon.
     Soon after becoming a surgeon Hunter joined the army.He learnt a great deal from his
experience of dealing with soldiers" wounds.In particular,he studied how to prevent a wounded
man from bleeding too much,learning thereby how the nerve system functioned in the bodies
of animals and humans.But there were many things he did not know about and which could
only be learnt by dissection.And this posed a problem.
     The Christian church whose authority was complete on many matters opposed on dissection.
Cutting up dead animals to find out about their organs,and how these functioned was thought a
disgusting thing to do,and to cut up a human body,even though dead,was thought to be evil.
Surgeons had to pay grave diggers to steal bodies for dissection.Hunter once paid $7000 for
the body of an eight-foot Irishman whose skeleton can still be seen in the Royal College of
surgeon"s museum.To be a surgeon was thought so inferior an occupation that many operations
were carried out by barbers.
     But Hunter continued with his experiments,at the time learning more about how our bodies
worked,and he found new ways of operating on people so as to save both their limbs and their
lives.If a man was brought to him with a bad tumor (肿瘤)on his leg,Hunter did not,as most
surgeons would have done,cut off his leg,but tried first to remove the tumor and treat the leg so
that the leg might be saved.1._________ we think is the most important of John Hunter"s three advantages.A.His brother"s occupation
B.A natural curiosity
C.Lived in the country
D.Strong and skillful hands .Fr2om the passage we guess that a barber was _________.

A.looked down upon at that time
B.looked up to at that time
C.regarded as equal to other occupations
D.not permitted to carry out operations

3.The word "dissection" from the context most nearly means ___________.A.cutting something up into different parts under study
B.putting different parts of something together to cure the patient
C.operating on somebody without medical instruments
D.stealing dead bodies from graves to cut into pieces4.From the last paragraph we can conclude that __________.A.Hunter continued with his experiments
B.Hunter was learning more about how out bodies worked
C.Hunter found new ways of operations
D.Hunter was very conscientious and responsible
