10．Every boy and every girl as well as their parents who to attend the meeting asked to be at the school gate before 2：30 in the afternoon．（　　）

9．I was in the garden with Augie，My four-year-old grandson，watching the bees．"Bees make honey，"I said．After a pause，Augie replied，"How do they make the honey？"There is nothing like a child's question for exposing the limits of a grandmother's wisdom．
"Actually，Augie，I don't know，"I said．
"But，Grandma，you have your phone，"he said．For Augie，a smart phone is as natural as the bees，and holding one is almost equal to knowing．
I Googled"How do bees make honey？"There were dozens of videos explaining it．Augie and I learned that worker bees produce an enzyme（酵素），which changes nectar（花蜜）into dextrose．then beat their wings to thicken the nectar into honey．
"It's kind of hard to see the bees．"I said．
"Why don't we watch it on the big computer？"Augie said．
For the next hour，we sat inside，bee-surfing．There were a lot of beekeeper selfie videos，best of which was a BBC documentary about the"waggle dance，"the remarkable communication system that allows bees to give one another directions to the places where they've found nectar．
Most of my own children was spent reading books，forgetting the world around me．Over time，reading controlled my brain，as large areas once dedicated to dealing with the"real"world adapted to dealing with the printed word．This didn't limit my development，but it didi leave me with some illusions（错觉）-my idea of romantic love surely came from novels．
Many parents worry that"screen time"will harm children's development，but recent research suggests that most of the common fears about children and screens are unfounded．（There is one exception：looking at screens that emit blue light before bed really does disturb sleep，in people of all ages．） The new guidelines emphasize that what matters is content and context，what children watch and with whom．Each child，after all，will have some hundred thousand of conscious experience before turning sixteen．Those hours can be like the wonderful ones that Augie and I spent together bee-watching，or they can be mindless-and that's true whether those hours are occupied by apps or TV or books or just by talk．
New tools have always led to panic．Socrates thought that reading and writing would have disastrous effects on memory； the novel，the telegraph，the telephone，and the television were all declared to the End of Civilization，particularly in the hands of the young．Part of the reason may be that adult brains require a lot of focus and effort to learn something new，while children's brains are designed to master new environments naturally．Advanced technologies always seem disturbing to the adults attempting to master them，and obvious to those children，like Augie．
Like the bees，we live by the reports of others．Unlike the bees．We can invent new worlds．，constructing them out of apps or TV or books．Sometimes those worlds confuse； at other times，they tell us something inspiring．When Augie's father got home，Augie rushed to meet him in excitement．"Daddy，Daddy，look，"he said，reaching for the phone．"Do you know how bees make honey？I'll show you…？

7．Anyone who has ever played the game of Tetris （俄罗斯方块） knows the game's surreal ability to spill into real life．After you shut off the game，you still see those Tetris blocks falling in your mind．You're grocery shopping and find yourself thinking about rearranging items on grocery shelves．Your mind continues to play the game，even when you're physically not．
Robert Stickgold，a Harvard professor，noticed something similar after a day hiking a mountain．That night，he dreamt he was still going through the motions of mountain hiking．Curious about this，he tried something：he got a group of college students of various skill levels to play Tetris and let them sleep in the Harvard sleep lab．
Over 60% of the students，including those who suffered from amnesia （键忘症），reported dreams of images of Tetris pieces falling，rotating （旋转），and fitting together．Interestingly，half the Tetris expert students reported such Tetris dreams，while 75% of the beginners did．
A study found that playing Tetris can grow your brain and make it more efficient．Adolescent girls played the game for an average of 1.5hours a week over three months．The cerebral cortex （大脑皮层） of the girls grew thicker，while brain activity in other areas decreased．Richard Haier，who had found that there was a"Tetris learning effect"，in which the brain consumed less energy as mastery of the game rose，concluded，"The brain is learning which areas not to use．"
Haier's study showed that as the girls practiced playing the game，nerve cells made connections，communicating through synapses （a synapse is a connection between two nerve cells）．When you learn something，you change those connections．Every time you reactivate（激活） a circuit，synaptic efficiency increases，and connections become more durable and easier to reactivate．Stickgold says sleep plays a role in this memory process．
So to sum up，whenever you do specific tasks over and over again，they take up less of your brain power over time．And that's pretty amazing．

25．What does the underlined part'surreal ability'in the first paragraph mean？D
A．The game can help people arrange things in life．
B．The game can be applied to many aspects of life．
C．There are great similarities between the game and things in life．
D．The mind continues to play the game when we are doing other things．
26．What can we learn from Stickgold's study？A
A．More than half of the students dreamed of images of Tetris．
B．Students having bad memories didn't dream of the game．
C．The Tetris expert students were more likely to dream of the game than the beginners．
D．More than half of the Tetris expert students didn't dream of the game．

①grow one's brain
②one's brain function efficiently
③arrange things tidily in life

5．Twenty years ago，Sitesh Ranjan Deb was on a routine hunt for wild pigs in northeastern Bangladesh．He never thought it would change his life forever．
Walking through the forest with his gun，Mr．Deb was tracking crop-destroying wild pigs after complaints from local farmers．But as he advanced towards his target，Mr．Deb stepped on a bear．The bear awoke and attacked him，and its claws tore through his face．Instinctively，he shot the bear and it fell down dead．
"As a result of the bear attack，I lost my right eye，most of my nose and several teeth．My tongue was also torn apart，"he said．
But the near-death experience also changed the hunter forever．"For me it was a new start of life．I wanted to do something meaningful．So I decided to use the opportunity to protect wild animals rather than hunt them．"said Mr．Deb．
Villagers today will inform him when any animal or rare bird strays（误入）into their area from the nearby forest．Sometimes they bring injured animals for him to nurse at his rescue center and then，if possible，release back into the wild．In the past 20 years，he has set free thousands of wild animals and birds back into the forest．
Those animals and birds which cannot be released end up staying in his rescue center close to his home．"I can't set all the animals free-some are too old and others are seriously injured．Besides，the forests around this area are no longer large enough to support them．"he says．"The black bear came to me as a cub（幼崽） and it was raised here．Now，it doesn't know how to hunt．So it will not get enough food in the forest and it can be easily hunted by poachers（偷猎者）．"
The rescue center is home to a bear，a rare albino fishing cat，rock pythons，gibbons，monkeys，spotted deer，vultures and various types of wild birds．The animals are inside cages but are kept in clean conditions and are regularly fed．
Mr．Deb runs the center with his own money and occasionalfinancial help from well-wishers．The mini-zoo also attracts hundreds of local tourists who pay a small entry fee．

4．We arrived at the hospital to find Dad was very weak，but his smile was as sure as ever．It was another attack of pneumonia（肺炎）．My husband and I stayed with him for the weekend but had to return to our jobs on Monday．Local relatives would help Dad get home from the hospital and look after him．But I longed to be able to let him know that we cared too，even when we weren't with him．
Then I remember a family tradition when our children were small．When leaving their grandparents'home after a visit，each child would write a note to their grandparents．They hid notes in the cereal（麦片），under a hairbrush，next to the phone or even in the microwave oven．For days，their parents would smile as they discovered these signs of our love．
So as I tidied Dad's kitchen and made up a bed for him downstairs in the living room，I wrote some notes．Some were practical，"Dad，I put the food in the fridge so it wouldn't spoil．"Some expressed my love，"Dad I hope you will sleep well in your new bed．"Most notes were downstairs where he would stay for several weeks until he recovered strength，but one note I hid upstairs under his pillow，"Dad，if you have found this one，you must be feeling better．We are so glad．"
Just like his medicine strengthened him physically，these"emotional vitamins"would improve his spiritual health．Several weeks later，in one of our regular phone calls，I asked Dad how he was doing．He said，"Pretty good．I just found your note under my pillow upstairs!"
