  We spent a day in the country and picked a lot of flowers.Our car was full of flowers inside! On the way home we had to stop at the traffic lights, and there my wife saw the bookshelf.It stood outside a furniture (家具)shop.“Buy it,” she said at once.“We'll carry it home on the roof-rack (车顶架).I've always wanted one like that.”

  What could I do? Ten minutes later I was twenty dollars poorer, and the bookshelf was tied onto the roof rack.It was tall and narrow, quite heavy too.

  As it was getting darker, I drove slowly.Other drivers seemed more polite than usual that evening.The police even stopped traffic to let us through.Carrying furniture was a good idea.

  After a time my wife said, “There's a long line of cars behind.Why don't they overtake(超车)?”

  Just at that time a police car did overtake.The two officers (警官)inside looked at us seriously when they went past.But then, with a kind smile they asked us to follow their car through the busy traffic.The police car stopped at our Village church (教堂).One of the officers came to me.

  “Right, sir,” he said.“Do you need any more help now?”

  I didn't quite understand.“Thanks, officer.” I said.“You've been very kind.I live just down the road.”

  He was looking at our things:First at the flow-ers, then at the bookshelf.“Well, well,” he said and laughed.“It's a bookshelf you've got there! We thought it was-er, something else.”

  My wife began to laugh.Suddenly I understood why the police drove here.I smiled at the officer, “Yes, it, s a bookshelf, but thanks again.” I drove home as fast as I could.

We all, at one time or another , were like a rock star, singing and dancing along to our favourite song. Most of us have done this in our own room when we were kids or even when we grew up. Me? I love to do that when I drive! I turn on the radio, find a song that I can sing along, and soon my arms are in the air. I am moving along to the music. Most of the time, I do this on my way to work.
Yes, that is true. I will be in my nice work clothes in my car. Someone may look at me strangely or even laugh at me when I stopped at a traffic light. Personally I love to get lost in the music. That can lead me to share with you the importance of being silly!
The meaning of the word silly, according to the dictionary is : stupid, foolish and nonsensical. I know many people do not want to look foolish. So they are always serious in their life, but in fact that is really stupid.
No one is perfect, I repeat: no one is perfect. I don’t care how educated, how thin, how beautiful, how simple, how frugal(朴素的), how rich, and so on … No one is perfect! So why pretend(假装) to be something you are not?  
Life is so short…_________, so why waste a single second on being so “perfect”?
When we were kids, we had no idea of fear and we had no care in the world so we could do things without worrying about how we appeared to others. However, as we grew up, we lost that kind of feeling.
So don’t be afraid to be silly. The next time you feel down, go and turn on your favourite song , sing and dance along just like there is no tomorrow. Or watch something that makes you laugh. Trust me, you will feel a whole lot better, and who doesn’t want to feel good.

How do you remember the way to your house? Where do dreams come from? It is your brain (大脑) that does these things. A British scientist showed that “sleep can improve one’s memory.” It’s not a dream for students to study when they sleep. In fact, your brain is working day and night. If you learn words before bed, a certain part of the brain may help you to remember the words while you sleep. What’s more, another scientist in the USA found that there was a “talent button (天才按钮)” in the human brain. It might make a person more talented.

There are more interesting things about the brain. Your brain uses less energy than a fridge light. Just two bananas can give the brain enough energy to work for a whole day. According to some scientists, yawning (打哈欠) keeps our brains “cool”, which makes us think quicker.

Here are some pieces of advice to keep a good brain:

Eat healthy food.

Get a lot of playtime or exercise.

Don’t drink or smoke.

Use your brain a lot.

1.A British scientist found out that ________ could improve our memories.

A.drink             B.dreams           C.sleep             D.bananas
