24、What can you do to help yourself get out of stress or worry? If you’re an artist, you keep making art. And if you have never considered yourself an artist, now is the time to take up an artistic hobby such as drawing or painting. It is never too late to start. Everyone can do it. If you can hold a brush or crayon, you can create art.

Creating art heals (治愈) not only the mind and spirit but also the body since all of these are connected. As you draw or paint, your breathing slows, your blood pressure lowers, and your mind lets go of daily problems. This slowing down allows you to fully experience the moment. The process not only relaxes you but also brings a feeling of joy, increasing your energy and enthusiasm (热情) for life.

Making art also allows you to play, freeing you to find out and try out new materials and methods. It also lets you express pleasure by seeing beauty where others may not. Creating art provides you a special chance to express your anger or upset, as well as your personal ideas.

Although the process of making art is the most important part, your finished product is significant too. Your painting or drawing will remind you of the lessons you learned while making it, and you may feel energetic just by looking at it.

If you don’t know how to begin, here are some ways to start creating art. If possible, set aside a small table with your brushes and watercolors so you can get creative whenever you get inspiration. Without thinking much about it, just choose colors that you like and start painting with them, or cut pictures with those colors out of magazines and glue them down, combining (结合) them with paints. The act of enjoying the colors and working on the color combinations will give you something to focus on instead of the stresses of your daily life.

【1】What do you need to do if you start making art according to Paragraph 1?

A．Ask a teacher for help.

B．Just have a brush or crayon.

C．Be a young artist first.

【2】What can you learn about making art from Paragraphs 2 and 3?

A．It is good for our health.

B．It causes high blood pressure.

C．It helps us solve daily problems.

【3】Which of the following best explains “significant” underlined in Paragraph 4?

A．Expensive.

B．Useless.

C．Important.

【4】Which of the following is NOT true about how to start making art?

A．You must be very careful while choosing colors.

B．You can begin painting whenever you get inspired.

C．You can get brushes and watercolors for preparation.

President Xi sent a message on September 29, 2019 to the Chinese women's volleyball team, after they won the World Cup. The Chinese team has successfully defended (卫冕) its World Cup crown with 11 straight victories, winning great honors for the country and the Chinese people, said Xi. The players didn't fear any competitors and fought hard with both style and skills, showing great teamwork and a hardworking spirit.

Back in 1976, Yuan Weimin served as the coach of the Chinese women's volleyball team. Under his guidance, in 1979, China won the Asian women's volleyball championship. During the 1980s, the Chinese team achieved five straight championships in the world, especially in the 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games. That was the first time in Chinese history. At that time, China was having a hard period in its own development. The achievements those Chinese volleyball players had made and their spirit were quite an encouragement for Chinese people to work hard and get out of the darkness.

Chen Zhonghe was the chief coach of the Chinese women's volleyball team at the beginning of the 21st century. August 28th 2004 was an unforgettable day for all the Chinese volleyball fans and even almost all the Chinese. When the whole world thought that China was going to be defeated (击败) as Russia took the big lead first, Chinese athletes kept good mental states and in the end unbelievably won the Olympic gold medal. The Chinese team impressed the Chinese and the world with that match, inside of which was the strong spirit of the team.

In 2013, Lang Ping, worked as the chief coach again after 10 years. In the next 3 years, China step by step got back to the world women's volleyball stage. In the 2016 Rio Olympic Games, the Chinese team gained back its Olympic gold medal again after 12 years. "Never give up, especially in adversity (逆境). I think that's what the spirit of Chinese women's volleyball means," Lang said in Rio 2016.

Over the past forty years, our Chinese women's volleyball players have overcome difficulties. And the spirit they showed has been considered as "the fighting spirit of Chinese women's volleyball team and praised by the whole country.

26、When you and your friends ever talk about your dreams, you might have noticed something interesting—some of your friends rarely remember their dreams, but some can always describe their dreams very clearly. What makes those people different?

Well, there are two different types of dreamers—low dream recallers（回忆者）and high dream recallers.

Low dream recallers usually remember their dreams only twice a month. But high dream recallers are able to remember them about five mornings a week. And a new study suggests that activity in a certain part of the brain could have something to do with it.

Perrine Ruby, a French researcher, studied 41 people（21 high dream recallers and 20 low dream recallers）and recorded（记录）their brain activity.

She found that a part of the brain called the temporo-parietal junction（颞顶联合区）was more active in high dream recallers than in low dream recallers—both when they were sleeping and awake.

This brain area collects and processes information from the outside world. This means that high dream recallers know more about what’s happening around them. For example, when they are awake, they respond（反应）more strongly to hearing their own names, and when they are sleeping, they are woken more easily by sounds and movements.

By closely studying people’s brain activities, Ruby found that high dream recallers have twice as much “wakefulness time” during sleep as low dream recallers do. And it is during these short times of wakefulness that the brain memorizes dreams.

“The sleeping brain is not able to memorize new information,” Ruby told The Washington Post. “It needs to wake up to be able to do that. “This is not hard to understand. Just try to think of your own sleeping experiences. If you are restless （不安的）during the night, you are more likely to remember your dreams. If you sleep well, you will remember little in the morning, and this is because you never get a chance to remember,” Robert Stickgold, a Harvard Medical School researcher, told The Washington Post.

【1】According to the article, high dream recallers ________.

A．have very little brain activity during sleep

B．don’t know how to describe their dreams

C．can remember their dreams clearly

D．remember their dreams twice a week

【2】Low dream recallers ________ than high dream recallers.

A．have higher sleep quality（质量）

B．have more sleepless nights

C．are more easily woken at night

D．respond faster when hearing their names

【3】What is the main purpose of the last paragraph?

A．To show the benefits（好处）of being a low dream recaller.

B．To suggest what to do to become a low dream recaller.

C．To get the readers interested in future studies.

D．To further explain what Ruby said.

【4】What does the article mainly talk about?

A．How we can remember our dreams more often.

B．Why some can remember dreams while some can’t.

C．Low dream recallers are less active than high dream recallers.

D．High dream recallers woke up more than low dream recallers.

Life affects friendships. As we grow, marry, fight in wars, move across the country or change jobs, old friendships fall away and new ones form. As long as we live, the things a【1】 us change, and as long as things change, friendships are affected.
