After the quake hit northeast Japan on March 11, many moving stories that I saw with my own eyes happened around me.
I had to walk home since all the 21 had stopped after the earthquake. On my way home I 22 an old lady at a bakery shop who was giving out free bread, which made my heart 23 . A man was holding a sign that said, “Please use our 24 .” He was 25 his house for people to go to the restroom.
My friend wanted to 26 others. He stood in the cold with a sign “If you’re okay with a motorcycle, I will 27 you to your house.” And then I saw him take one gentleman home, all the way to a faraway place!
The next day I drove to 28 my car with gas. There is a lack (缺乏) of 29 now and many gasoline stations are either closed or have very 30 lines. I got 31 , since I was behind 15 cars. Finally, when it was my 32 , the man smiled and said, “ 33 this situation, we are only giving $30 worth gas per person. Is that all right?” “ 34 . I’m just glad that we are all able to 35 ,” I said.

I saw a man at the evacuation (疏散) center 36 when people brought food to him. It was the first time in three days that food was brought to their center. However, after he wiped the tears, his next 37 surprised me. “I am very 38 that we are provided with food. But people in the city next to us haven’t 39 any food at all.

Scientists have proved that sleeping and learning go hand in hand. Even a short nap can boost our memory and sharpen our thinking. But the relationship goes deeper than that.
“The brain is not passive while you sleep,” scientist Anat Arzi said. “It’s quite active. You can do many things while you are asleep.”
Arzi and her coworkers didn’t try to teach the sleeping volunteers any complex information, like new words or facts. Instead, the scientists taught volunteers to make new connections between smells and sounds.
When we smell something good, like a flower, we take deep breaths. When we smell something bad, we take short breaths. Arzi and her co-workers based their experiment on these reactions.
Once the volunteers fell asleep in the lab, the scientists went to work. They gave them a whiff of something pleasant and meanwhile played a particular musical note. They didn’t wake up, but they heard—and sniffed(吸气) deeply. Then the scientists gave the volunteers a whiff of something terrible and played a different musical note. Again, the volunteers heard and smelled—a short snort this
time—but didn’t wake up. The researchers repeated the experiment.
After just four repetitions, volunteers made a connection between the musical notes and their paired smells. When the scientists played the musical tone that went with good smells, the sleepers breathed deeply. And when the scientists played the musical tone that went with bad smells, the sleepers breathed briefly—despite there being no bad smell.
The next day, the volunteers woke up with the sound-smell connection. They breathed deeply when hearing one tone and cut their breaths short when hearing the other, which must have been unusual for them. Imagine walking down the street and taking a deep breath upon hearing a particular sound!
【小题1】In the study, the volunteers were taught _______.
| A．to become active during sleep |
| B．to tell the difference between smell |
| C．to learn new words and scientific facts |
| D．to make sound-smell connections |

| A．learned how to play to musical tones |
| B．forgot what happened during their sleep |
| C．continued with the sound-smell connection |
| D．changed their reaction when hearing. |
| A．special smells and sounds can improve our memory. |
| B．our brain can actually learn something new during the sleep. |
| C．the volunteers will always hear similar sounds in the street. |
| D．our brain can tell the difference between smells during the sleep. |
| A．A short sleep can improve our memory and sharpen our thinking. |
| B．Arzi and her coworkers didn’t try to teach the sleeping volunteer some simple information. |
| C．When the volunteer smelt something terrible, they didn’t wake up. |
| D．After four repetitions, volunteers made a connection between the musical notes and their pared smells. |
We couldn’t forget the historic moment on Oct.11, 2012, when the first Chinese Nobel laureate, Mo Yan, won the 2012 Nobel Prize for Literature. Minutes after the award was announced, millions of Chinese expressed pleasure and pride for Mo Yan on the Internet. So a Chinese getting the Nobel Prize for literature did really increase the national pride.
On Dec.11 (Monday) in Sweden Mo was given the Nobel diploma, medal and a document confirming the prize amount. In his speech at the ceremony, Mo said receiving the prize felt like a fairy tale, but of course it was true and that literature was useless compared with science. Mo's award filled the blank left by Chinese literature in the world literary history. Meanwhile, Monday's Nobel awards ceremony set off another buying rush on Mo's works among Chinese readers.
