The owner of the shopping center gave Dad a discount on his rent for cleaning the parking. lot three nights a week, which meant getting up at 3 a.m.To pick up trash, Dad used a little machine that looked like a lawn mower. Mom and I emptied garbage cans and picked up litterby hand.It took two to three hours to clean the lot. I'd s1eep in the car on-the way home.I did this for two years, but the lessons I leacmed have lasted a lifetime,I acquired' disci-pline and a strong work morality, and leamed at an early age the impmtance of balancing life's competing interests-----in my case, school, homework and a job.This really'helped during my senior year of high school, when l worked 40 hours a week flipping hamburgers,at a fast – food joint while taking afull load of college - prep courses. The hard work paid off .I attended the U.S.Milttary Academy and went on to reaceive graduate degree in law and business from Harvard. Later,I joined a big Los Angetes law firm and was elected to the California state assembly. In these jobs and in everything else I’ve done,I have never forgotten those nights in the parking lot.The experience taught me that there is dignitty in all work and that if people are workmg to provide for thems elves ahd their families ,that is something we should honor.

科目:高中英語 來源: 題型:閱讀理解
Do you think that daydreaming is a waste of time? Probably so.
"On the contrary,'' says L.Giambra, an expert in psychology (心理學 ).“Daydreaming is quite necessary.Without it, the mind couldn’t get done all the thinking it has to do during a normal day.You can’t possibly do all your thinking with a consciousness (有意識).Instead, your unconscious mind is working out problems all the time.Daydreaming then may be one way that the unconscious and conscious states of mind have silent dialogues."
Early psychology experts paid no attention to the importance of daydreams or even considered them harmful.At one time daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental illnesses.They did not have a better understanding of daydreams until the late 1980s.Eric Klinger, a professor of psychology, is the writer of the book DAYDREAMING.Klinger says, “We know now that daydreaming is one of the main ways that we organize our lives, learn from our experiences, and plan for our futures.Daydreams really are a window on the things we fear and the things we long for in life.”
Daydreams are usually very simple and direct, quite unlike sleep dreams,
which may be hard to understand.It’s easier to gain a deep understanding of your life by paying close attention to your daydreams than by trying to examine your sleep dreams carefully.Daydreams help you recognize the difficult situations in our life and find out a possible way of dealing with them.
Daydreams cannot be predicted (預(yù)測).They move off in unexpected directions which may be creative and full of ideas.For many famous artists and scientists, daydreams were and are a main source of creative energy.
1.What's the writer’s opinion of daydreaming?
A.He agrees with the early experts in psychology.
B.He is for L.Giambra and Eric Klinger.

2.Which of the following statements is true?
A.Daydreaming is less harmful than sleep dreaming.
B.L.Giambra’s opinion of daydreaming is opposite to Eric Klinger’s.
C.Early experts firmly stuck to their own opinion on daydreaming.
D.Daydreams can come very suddenly and unexpectedly
3.Which of the following can lead to daydreams according to the text?
A.Absence of attention B.Illness in mind.
