Here is the Time Machine, which I used to travelling into the future last week. I was very nervous and certain at first. Besides, my friend and guide, Wang Ping, was understanding and gave me some green medicine helped a lot. His parents' company, called "Future Tours", transport me safely into the future . A few minute later, the journey was completed and we arrived. I was still on the earth and one thousand years in the future. At first my new surroundings turned into complete dark. Hitting by a lack of fresh air, my head ached. At that time Wang Ping came to me and she handed a mask to me and then I felt better in a flash.

Taking a shower is relaxing£®You can hum a song, daydream or think about nothing, leaving the real world behind you£®But did you know that showering can also benefit your mind?

A research by Scott Barry Kaufman, a psychologist from Yale University in the US interviewed over 3,000 people around the world£®It turned out that nearly two-thirds of the interviewees said they had experienced new ideas in the shower and were more likely to have them in the shower than at work£®

So why does a simple shower have such magic power? Science can explain it£®

Showering can help to raise our level of dopamine, a hormone (ºÉ¶ûÃÉ) closely related to our creativity£®¡°People vary in terms of their level of creativity according to the activity of dopamine¡±, explained Alice Flaherty, a famous American neuroscientist£®¡°Taking a warm shower can make us feel relaxed and therefore make the dopamine level rise and bring 'Aha!' moment to us£®¡±

Besides the chemical changes, showering may give you a break from what you feel you have been stuck with£®Especially when you have thought hard all day about a problem, jumping into the shower can keep you from the outside world so that you can focus on your inner feelings and memories£®In this way, according to American psychologist Shelley H£®Carson, author of Your Creative Brain, ¡°a showering hour may turn into an ¡®incubation (·õ»¯) period¡¯ for your ideas£®¡±

Compared with sitting in front of a computer, taking a shower is something we do less frequently in our daily life£®When showering, we get a fresh experience with the change of location, temperature and humidity£®¡°New and unexpected experiences can lead to positive changes in thinking,¡± explained Kaufman£®¡°Getting off the couch and jumping in the shower may create a distance and force you to think from a new point of view£®¡±

Showering allows us to enjoy the creative juices of our minds, but it needn't just be the bathroom where you get your inspiration£®For instance, Gertrude Stein, a female American writer and poet, got new ideas by driving around a farm and stopping at different cows until she found the one that most inspired her£®So try to create your own way to free your mind, whether it's a walk near the ocean, a country drive or reading a book at home£®

1.According to the article, what changes can showering cause?

A£®Bringing the terrible moment to us£®

B£®Increasing the level of dopamine£®

C£®Leading to boredom or tiredness£®

D£®Setting the creative part of the brain free£®

A£®turn one¡¯s attention inwards

B£®draw one¡¯s attention to the outside world

C£®one make an important breakthrough

D£®many chemical changes to take place

3.It can be inferred from the article that _______£®

A£®changes in the frequency of an action can create a new perspective

B£®it is a good idea to talk with others about their sources of inspiration

C£®our lives might feel longer and fuller if we frequently try new things

D£®it is helpful to try something different rather than stay focused on a difficult task

4.The example of Gertrude Stein in the last paragraph is used to _______£®

A£®encourage readers to find their own ways of getting inspiration

B£®point out to readers that it's hard to find inspiration

C£®explain how to link inspiration with readers¡¯ daily lives
