21、Creative people are more likely to make the most of their idle (空闲的) time during a typical day by exploring their mind, a new study by University of Arizona researchers suggests.

In the study, the researchers divided the study into two parts. For the first experiment, the researchers asked each participant to sit alone in a room for 10 minutes without any access to digital devices. In the absence of any particular prompt (提示), the participants were asked to speak out their thoughts aloud in real time. The recorded files from 81 participants were then analyzed.

The researchers assessed the participants’ creativity through a thinking test, a lab-based verbal test that measures a person’s ability to think outside of the box. Participants who performed well in the thinking test had thoughts that flowed freely and were associated with one another, often indicated by phrases such as “this reminds me of” or “speaking of which”.

“While many participants had a tendency to jump between seemingly unrelated thoughts, creative individuals showed signs of thinking more associatively,” Raffaeli said, who was a senior author of the paper.

The first experiment also found that creative people were more engaged in their thoughts when they were left alone without distractions (干扰), such as the cellphone and Internet. “Creative people rated themselves as being less bored, even over those 10 minutes. They also spoke more words overall, which indicated that their thoughts were more likely to move freely,” Raffaeli said.

To further prove their initial findings, the researchers extended their study in the context of a much larger span of time—from 2020 to 2023 when many people were alone with their thoughts more often. For the second experiment, over 2,600 adults answered questions through a smartphone app called Mind Window. Participants who self-identified as being creative reported being less bored and more engaged in their thoughts during that period.

The researchers are continuing this line of work using their Mind Window app. They encourage people to download and use the app to help scientists understand how people across the world think in their everyday lives. “Understanding why different people think the way they do may lead to promising interventions to improve health and well-being,” Raffaeli said.

【1】What were the participants asked to do in the first experiment?

A．Play digital devices for just 10 minutes.

B．Voice their thoughts quickly when asked.

C．Observe and record each other’s performance.

D．Make self-assessment in a thinking test.

【2】What was the feature of the creative participants in the study?

A．They often had associated ideas.

B．They thought of anything as a reminder.

C．They preferred to sit alone without being distracted.

D．They tended to jump between unrelated thoughts.

【3】Why did the researchers encourage people to use Mind Window?

A．To analyze their own thoughts.

B．To try out the function of the app.

C．To keep track of their thinking.

D．To improve their own mental well-being.

【4】What can be the best title for the text?

A．Idle Time Makes Creative People

B．Creative Thoughts Appear in Idle Time

C．Creative People Are Less Affected by Distraction

D．Creative People Enjoy Idle Time More Than Others

23、  A California man who was feeling sick almost died recently from a shocking cause．

26-year-old Luis Ortiz went to a hospital because of a headache and nausea(恶心，作呕)．When doctors examined him, they were shocked to find a tapeworm larva(绦虫幼虫) in his brain．The story gets stranger．The larva was still alive．

The creature had caused a cyst(囊肿) to form inside his head．The cyst was restricting the flow of liquids to different areas of his brain．The situation was so serious that doctors said they had to perform an emergency operation to remove the larva．

A doctor who operated on Ortiz told him he had only 30 minutes to live．When the doctor pulled the worm out of his head, it was still moving．

Luis Ortiz was a student at California State University in Sacramento．He began experiencing headaches in late August．But Ortiz said he did not think the headaches were serious．

In September, he visited a friend and his parents in another city．That is when the pain got worse．His mother saw Ortiz throwing up and took him to a hospital emergency room．

The doctors saved Ortiz's life．However, the surgery also affected him．Ortiz had to drop out of school and move back home．For now, he is not permitted to work or drive a vehicle．

The U．S．Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says the U．S．has about 1,000 reported cases of tapeworms each year．The CDC adds that tapeworms are more common in developing countries with poor public health systems．

The best way to avoid a tapeworm infection (感染)is to wash fruits and vegetables．Also, make sure meat is cooked thoroughly．The CDC suggests cooking all meats to an internal temperature of at least 63 degrees Celsius．

【1】What caused Luis Ortiz to feel sick and headaches?

A．Dirty food eaten in August．

B．Travelling for a long way,

C．A living creature in his brain．

D．Uncooked meat eaten by him．

【2】If the doctors didn’t have an emergency operation on him , Luis Ortiz was likely to   _．

A．die of cancer

B．live for only half an hour

C．finish studying in school

D．pass the driving tests

【3】How should people avoid infecting tapeworms?

A．By washing fruits and vegetable．

B．By boiling plates and bowls before meals．

C．By cooking meats to at least 63 °C outside．

D．By improving the development of economy．

【4】What did the writer think of the cause of Luis Ortiz’s disease?

A．Quite frightening．

B．Very dangerous．

C．Rather puzzling．

D．Extremely surprising．

24、A wave. A thumbs-up. You may think you know what these common gestures signify…but what happens when you wave to your European friend across the street and she turns to walk the other way?

There’s a reason for her reaction.【1】While most Americans interpret a wave as a friendly greeting or goodbye, the same motion is just as likely to communicate the word “no” in parts of Europe and Latin America.

Obviously, body language is not universal.【2】

The most common understanding of the subject relates body language to spoken language. Generally speaking, the same body language has different meanings in different places, which is closely related to the traditional customs of the region.【3】For example, In Germany the thumbs-up represents the number one, but in Japan it means “five” instead. So to understand a certain body language correctly, it is best to combine it with spoken language.

There’s one more complication in understanding nonverbal (非语言的) communication, though.【4】In a study, participants from the West, African communities, and New Guinea were shown a collection of more than 10,000 portraits illustrating different facial expressions (the same man indicates different facial expressions, anger, sadness, etc.). Researchers concluded that there were at least seven universal facial expressions: anger, disgust, fear, surprise, happiness, sadness, and contempt.【5】

So while a wave or thumbs-up may not translate on your next trip abroad, a genuine expression of emotion probably will.

A．But why?

B．This is also true in different cultures.

C．The mixed messages don’t stop there.

D．It isn’t because your friend is tired of your company.

E．Indeed, signals are essential for effective communication.

F．90 percent of participants identified the same emotions in the photo.

G．Although body language isn’t universal, the emotions behind it may be.
