【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的七個(gè)選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選頁(yè)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。Roger Sperry and Robert Ornstein of the California Institute of Technology, Nobel prize winners, discovered that the human brain has two sides, and each side has different work to do.The left side of the brain controls language and number and it analyses and reasons.【1】It controls our appreciation of music and our sense of rhythm. It is also the right side of our brain which daydreams.Leonardo da Vinci was the great painter and sculptor. He was also an architect, a scientist and an inventor!【2】When he invented machines he used both his imaginative ability and his analytical ability.【3】Albert Einstein enjoyed art, playing the violin and sailing. Indeed, Einstein said his scientific discoveries grew from his imagination rather than from analysis, reason and language. He said that written and spoken words were not important in his thinking. The story goes that Einstein was daydreaming one summer's day while sitting on a hill. He imagined that he was riding on sunbeams to the far distance of the universe. Then he found that he had returned to the sun. So he realized that the universe must curve(彎曲).【4】He then used the left side of his brain to apply analysis, number and reason. And finally he used language to explain it.Traditional education in schools encourages us to use the left side of our brains. Language, number, analysis and reason are given more importance in our schools than imagination and daydreaming. Why don' t we give more value to visual thinking? Why jump on one foot if we have two perfectly good legs !【5】We need to use our imagination to think of solutions to problems and to enjoy emotional and artistic experiences. And we need to be logical able to analyze and organize in order to survive day by day.

A. We benefit by thinking creatively.

B. We all need both sides of our brain.

C. He got this idea by using his imagination.

D. Great scientists and great artists are similar.

E. He was considered crazy for his strange ideas.

F. He used both sides of his brain within each activity.

G. The right side controls our imagination and our understanding of space.

Have you ever had a headache during a test? Have you ever been too worried about something that you have a headache or even can’t sleep at night? If so, then you know that stress is.

Not all stress is bad for you. Some kinds of stress can help you get things do better, like when you are running towards the finishing line or when you are being asked to give a speech to your class. Stress sometimes can help push you to make full preparation for a test. However, too much stress can result in anger, depression and other related problems, which we need to take serious.

There are many things in our life what might cause stress ------ having too much homework, taking a difficult test, and having economic problems.

It’s impossible to live in a life completely free of stress, so you should learn to deal with stress. The best way reduce stress is to have a balance life. If you get enough sleep, eat properly, take more exercise and have enough fun time, you’ll probably feel less stressed.

Mozart was a great man born with a given talent.He was writing songs at the age of five and performing before the queen by the time he was six years old.Early on,Mozart realised what his talents were,practiced or honed what he was born to do and used his natural abilities to create amazing pieces of music.

Dear Sir,

I’m glad to learn that part-time assistants was wanted in your studio and I’d like to have a try.

I’m a student who is graduated from high school soon. Before attending the college, I’ll have a long holiday and I’m determined to make the best of them. Since childhood, I have developed a strong interest in storytelling and watching films. My teacher thinks highly of my performance in the language class, when I have also acquired a good knowledge of American movie industry. Except that, I am the monitor of my class and thus have gained many experience in management.

I will undertake full responsibility and spare no effort to do my share of work. I am full convinced that through communication with the staffs, I can get some valuable work experience as well as develop my social skills.

I’m looking forward receiving your reply soon. Thank you for your consideration.
