book，Why We Dream，encourages us to rethink the importance of dreams and to become dream interpreters ourselves．‎ Reporter：Recently there’s been a massive interest in the science of sleep．Sleep plays a role in maintaining our mental health．Are dreams part of that process?‎ Alice Robb：Dreams play a big role in helping us cope with stress，grief and psychological problems．Dreams are an opportunity to work through things that frighten us in real life，to play out worst-case situations in an environment where they have no consequences．‎ Reporter：Has anyone explained why dreams contain such surreal(超现实的)elements，strange pictures of time，people，geography and so on?‎ Alice Robb：When we dream，the logic centres of our brain—the frontal lobes(大脑额叶)—go dark，and chemicals associated with self-control，like serotonin(血清素)and norepinephrine(去甲肾上腺素)，drop．At the same time，the emotion centres light up：we have a perfect chemical canvas for dramatic，psychologically intense visions．‎ Reporter：You say neglecting to consider our dreams is like“throwing away a gift from our brains without bothering to open it．”What is the gift?‎ Alice Robb：When we’re dreaming，we’re thinking in a state we never have access to by day．Dreams offer the opportunity to think in a different way and show new answers to problems．They show us blind spots on things we might be neglecting in our personal lives．‎ ‎1．In which aspect do dreams help maintain our mental health?‎ A．Dreams help us deal with pessimistic feelings．‎ B．Dreams make us free of stress，grief and psychological problems completely．‎ C．Dreams make us not able to face frightening things．‎ D．In dreams we can solve those worst-case problems．‎ ‎2．According to Alice Robb，what is NOT the gift?‎ A．When dreaming，we’re thinking in a state we never touch by day．‎ B．Dreams provide the chance to think in a different way and show new answers to problems．‎ C．Dreams show us blind spots that might be neglected in real lives．‎ D．Dreams enable us to accomplish impossible tasks．‎ ‎3．In which column will you probably read the passage?‎ A．Education． B．Technology． C．Opinions． D．Culture．‎ B In the decade to 2019 global meat consumption rose by an average of 1.9％a year and fresh dairy consumption by 2.1％—both about twice as fast as population growth．‎ Yet many sub—Saharan Africans still eat almost no meat，dairy or fish．This is seldom the result of religious or cultural prohibitions．If animal foods were cheaper，or if people had more money，they would eat more of them．Richard Waite of the World Resources Institute，an American think tank(智囊团)，points out that when Africans move to rich countries and open restaurants，they tend to write meat-heavy menus．‎ But this frugal(食肉量少的)continent is beginning to influence the global food system．Africa already imports more meat each year than China does，and the OECD’s forecasters expect imports to keep growing by more than 3％a year．‎ People will probably become healthier．Animal products are excellent sources of essential vitamins and minerals．Studies in several developing countries have shown that giving milk to schoolchildren makes them taller．Recent research in rural western Kenya found that children who regularly ate eggs grew 5％faster than children who did not．‎ Africans’changing diets also create opportunities for local businesses．As cities grow，and as people in those cities demand more animal protein，national supply chains become bigger and more complicated．Animal keepers，hatcheries，vets and trucking companies are indeed in booming years．‎ In the past，Africa would learn to fill shipping containers with clothes and gadgets(小商品)．But now，there are more jobs available filling bellies with meat．‎ ‎4．Why do many sub-Saharan Africans eat almost no meat，dairy or fish?‎ A．Because meat，dairy or fish don’t suit their taste．‎ B．Because of some religious or cultural prohibitions．‎ C．Because they are too poor to afford meat，dairy or fish．‎ D．Because the shortage of meat，dairy or fish in the region．‎ ‎5．The reasons for people’s becoming healthier are as follows except_______．‎ A．Animal products provide essential vitamins and minerals B．School children provided milk are taller C．Eating eggs regularly makes children grow faster D．Children who don’t eat eggs don’t grow ‎6．How many surprising benefits are mentioned with more meat imported in Africa?‎ A． 1 B．2 C．3 D．4‎ ‎7．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?‎ A．Clothing and gadgets industries play an important role in Africa．‎ B．Increasing food-related workers are making a living by providing food for urban areas．‎ C．Africans have exported clothes and gadgets to improve their living condition．‎ D．People can fill their bellies with meat．‎ C China has embraced Western fashion and futuristic technology as its economy boomed in recent decades，but a growing number of young people are looking to the past for their clothing choices and putting on traditional“hanfu”，or“Han clothing”．‎ These historic costumes of the Han ethnic majority are enjoying a renaissance(新生)in part because the government is promoting traditional culture．‎ Period dramas have also contributed to the increase in interest for traditional Chinese costumes—“The Story of Minglan”，a TV series set in the Song Dynasty，gained more than 400 million viewers in three days when it was broadcast earlier this year．‎ In modern China，the hanfu community attracts people from different walks of life：from history enthusiasts to cartoon fans，to students and even young professionals．‎ A government-supported revival(恢复)in Chinese culture has given the hanfu community a boost．In April，the Communist Youth League of China launched a two-day conference for traditional Chinese costumes，including hanfu．A live broadcast of the event drew some 20 million viewers，alongside a heartfelt outpouring of emotions.‎ Clothes are the“foundation of culture，”said Jiang Xue，who is part of Beijing-based hanfu club Mowutianxia．”If we as a people and as a country do not even understand our traditional clothing，how can we talk about other essential parts of our culture?”she said．‎ ‎8．In economy-boomed modern society，why does hanfu gain its popularity among young Chinese?‎ ‎①The government is promoting traditional culture．‎ ‎②Historical TV series arouse the interest in traditional costume．‎ ‎③Hanfu is special and well-decorated．‎ A．①② B．①③ C．②③ D．①②③‎ ‎9．Which of the following words has the similar meaning of“hanfu”?‎ A．Han ethnic majority． B．period dramas．‎ C．history enthusiasts． D．traditional Chinese costume.‎ ‎10．What’s the main reason to drive hanfu communities to grow fast?‎ A．Such communities launch conferences for traditional Chinese costumes frequently．‎ B．They have a great number of supporting viewers．‎ C．The government has released some policies to support the development of Chinese culture．‎ D．They always hold varieties of live broadcast．‎ ‎11．What does Jiang Xue want to tell us?‎ A．She is a member of a hanfu club in the countryside．‎ B．Traditional clothing should be highly thought of in a culture．‎ C．Everyone should wear traditional clothing．‎ D．Traditional clothing is the most essential part of a culture．‎ D Renting a property in the UK can be a hopeless business．The average monthly rent rose to￡932 last month and in London it is even more expensive at￡1，588，according to new figures．‎ With increasing rents leaving many people with barely any disposable(可支配的)income，let alone the means to save towards some necessaries，some are now choosing alternatives．‎ The older choice．‎ Office administrator Tina Gotla-Aluri，42，was struggling to cope with the￡950 a month she was paying for her house share in Putney，south-west London，when a friend suggested Share and Care Homeshare，which matches older homeowners who have a spare room with people who can offer practical help in exchange．She now lives in Putney with a man in his 90s for free and pays￡1 80 a month．‎ In retum，Gotla-Aluri provides companionship，goes food shopping，and cooks meals．“He is quite well travelled and food is one of the things we have bonded over，”she says．“I cook British food like Sunday dinners and sometimes Indian or Moroccan food．It’s win-win．”‎ Sitting it out．‎ While some people house-sit for free to get a taste of luxury or a different life for a few weeks，designer Jennifer Hamley，39，and her husband，Ben，37，have turned it into a way to live rent-free．‎ The couple house-sit through TrustedHousesitters．com，which connects home and pet owners with house-sitters and costs each part ￡89 for an annual membership．They house-sit mainly in Brighton，taking care of pets，the home，post and watering plants．‎ ‎“It is a peace of mind for many homeowners．A homeowner doesn’t need to get anyone to check in on the house，and pet owners don’t have to pay dog houses，cat houses or dog walkers．”‎ ‎12．Why do many people in the UK seek for other ways to rent?‎ A．Because they all hope to experience another way of life．‎ B．Because they think it coo1．‎ C．Because the average monthly rent is too high to afford．‎ D．Because many English people have large income to allow them to do so． ‎ ‎13．What do you know about“the older choice”? ‎ A．“Share and Care Homeshare”Provides house infonnation for free.‎ B．It means the way of renting house is old—fashioned． ‎ C．Tina now lives in Putney with an old man with only ￡180 a month to the house owner． ‎ D．Old house-owners provide a spare room for free and the renters offer practical help in exchange． ‎ ‎14．About“TrustedHousesitters．com”，which of the following statements is NOT true? ‎ A．It’s a website where house-owners with pets can advertise and seek for house-sitters． ‎ B．It’s a website where
