Last Sunday I saw a worst storm in years. It came sudden and went on for over three hours. After lunch, I went into my room to have a rest. The air was hot, but all was quiet. Then a strong wind started to blow into my room. Pieces of paper on my desk flew high into the air and some flew out the open window. As I ran out to catch it, big drop of rain began to fall. When I come back into my house, it was raining more harder and harder. Then I heard a loud sound from the back of the house. When I ran out of my room to find out that had happened, a big tree had fallen down and broke the top of the backroom.

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。有两项为多余选项。
1.From 18-25, according to I.Q. scores;but you are wiser and more experienced with increasing age. You are smartest in your 20's; around 30, your memory begins to go down, particularly your ability to perform mathematical computations. 2.__ Your vocabulary at the age of 45, for example, is three times as great as when you graduated from college. At 60, your brain has almost four times as much information as it did at the age of 21. 3.You have the best physical sense of yourself from 15 to 24; the best professional sense from 40 to 49. Before the age of 24, we believe that our happiest years are yet to come;over 30,we believe that they are behind us. A National Health survey agrees: after the age of 30, we become more realistic and do not view happiness as a goal in itself. If we keep our health, achieve professional and emotional goals, happiness, we feel, will follow.
__4.__ Generally between 30 and 39,but the peak (顶峰) varies with different professions(职业). Mosart wrote a symphony (交响曲) and four sonatas by the age of 8, and Mendelssohn composed his bestknown work A Midsummer Night's Dream at 17, but most of the great music was written by men between 33 and 39.
Though the peak in most fields comes early, most Nobel Prize winners did their top research in their late 20's and 30's—creative people continue to produce work with high quality(质量) throughout their lives _5.__
A. When are you most creative (创造性的)?
B. When are you happiest?
C. When are you smartest?
D. Do you know what I.Q. refers to?
E. But your I.Q. for other tasks goes up.
F. Creative people usually produce a lot of works.
G. For the “wellconditioned mind”, there is no upper limit..(限制)
You are the collector in the gallery of your life. You collect. You might not mean to but you do. One out of three people collects tangible(有形的)things such as cats, photos and noisy toys.
These are among some 40 collections that are being shown at “The Museum Of”—the first of several new museums which, over the next two years, will exhibit the objects accumulated (积累) by unknown collectors. In doing so, they will promote(推动) a popular culture of museums, not what museums normally represent (代表).
Some of the collections are fairly common—records, model houses. Others are strangely beautiful—branches that have fallen from tree, for example. But they all reveal (显露)a lot of things: ask someone what they collect and their answers will tell you who they are.
Others on the way include “The museum of Collectors” and “The Museum of Me.” These new ones, it is hoped, will build on the success of “The Museum Of.” The thinkers behind the project want to explore why people collect, and what it means to do so. They hope that visitors who may not have considered themselves collectors will begin to see they, too, collect.
Some collectors say they started or stopped making collections at important points: the beginning or end of adolescence ( 青春期 )—“it’s a growing-up thing; you stop when you grow up,” says one. Other painful times are mentioned, such as the end of a relationship.
1.How will the new museums promote a popular culture of museums?
A. By collecting more tangible things.
B. By showing what ordinary people have collected.
C. By correcting what museums normally represent.
D. By accumulating 40 collections two years from now.
2.What can be learned about collectors from their collections?
A. Who they are.
B. How old they are.
C. Where they were born.
D. Why they might not mean to collect.
3.Which of the following is an aim of the new museums?
A. To help people sell their collections.
B. To encourage more people to collect.
C. To study the importance of collecting.
D. To find out why people visit museums.
4.According to the last paragraph, people may stop collecting when they _______.
A. become adults
B. feel happy with life
C. are ready for a relationship
D. are in their childhood
