Disneyland calls itself the happiest place in the world. In order to keep visitors happy in its locations across the globe, every theme park in the world is changed slightly to satisfy local cultures and tastes.

Opened in 1983 and larger than the original California Disneyland, Tokyo Disneyland is the third most visited of any theme park in the world after the two Disney parks in the US. Like Walt Disney World in Florida, Cinderella’s Castle is located at the centre of the park.

But like karaoke, which originated in Japan and is a country-wide obsession (痴迷), Disneyland gives the often-reserved (矜持) Japanese people a place to show their noisy side. In Tokyo Disneyland, even adult visitors will sing, clap and dance along to the internationally themed live shows, which is a rare sight in the US.

After excitedly entering Disneyland Paris, which opened in 1992, visitors can see an arcade  that features a small copy of the Statue of Liberty a gift from France to American in 1886, making it a perfect introduction to this Europe’s only Disneyland theme park.

Unfortunately, the French stereotype of a smoking wine drinker is supported in Disneyland Paris. Many visitors complain (抱怨) that although the theme park is equipped with special smoking areas, most smokers seem to puff away (吹气) in all the open areas, including in queues for rides. Besides this, it is also the only Disneyland in the world where you can enjoy an alcoholic drink with your meal; a French meal without a glass of wine would make for the unhappiest place in the world.

1.What can we learn from the second and the third paragraph?

A. Tokyo Disneyland is the third largest theme park in the world.

B. Tokyo Disneyland is meant only for adult people.

C. There is no Cinderella’s Castle in Tokyo Disneyland.

D. Tokyo Disneyland is more visited than Disneyland Paris.

2.What are most visitors unhappy about when in Disneyland Paris?

A. No live shows there.

B. No smoking areas in the park.

C. Much smoking smell in the air.

D. Having to line up for a long time.

3.What can we infer from the underlined sentence?

A. Drinking alcohol is not allowed in other Disneyland in the world except Disneyland Paris.

B. If you want to be happy, go to Disneyland Paris and enjoy a glass of wine there.

C. The alcoholic drink is forbidden in Disneyland Paris.

D. Disneyland Paris is the unhappiest place in the world.

4.What is the main idea of the text?

A. The reason for building Disneyland across the globe

B. The introduction to Disneyland theme parks in Japan and the US

C. The difference between Disneyland Paris and Tokyo Disneyland

D. The simple analysis of Disneyland’s popularity in some parts of the world

Children whose minds wander might have sharper brains, a research suggests.

A study has found that people who appear to be often distracted (走神) have more “working memory”, giving them the ability to hold a lot of information in their heads and control it cleverly.

Children at school need this type of memory on a daily basis for a variety of tasks, such as following teachers’ instructions or remembering dictated (听写的) sentences. During the study, volunteers were asked to perform one simple task during which researchers kept asking if their minds were wandering. At the end, volunteers measured their working memory capacity (容量) by their ability to remember a series of letters mixed with simple maths questions.

Daniel Levinson, a professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in the United States, said that those with higher working memory capacity reported “more mind wandering during these simple tasks”, but their performance did not suffer.

The results, published online in the journal Psychological Science, appear to confirm former research that found working memory allows humans to deal with multiple thoughts at the same time.

Dr Jonathan Smallwood, of the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Science in Leipzig, Germany, said, “What this study seems to suggest is that, when surroundings for the task aren’t very difficult, people with additional working memory capacity use them effectively to think about other things besides what they’re doing.”

Working memory capacity is also associated with general measures of intelligence, such as reading comprehension and IQ scores. Dr Smallwood added: “Our results suggest the sorts of planning that people do quite often in daily lifewhen they are on the bus, when they are cycling to work, when they are in the showerare probably supported by working memory.”

1.During the study, the researchers asked the volunteers to _______.

A. solve some difficult maths problems

B. retell some dictated sentences

C. follow the teacher’s instructions

D. carry out one simple task

2.The underlined word “suffer” in the fourth paragraph probably means _______.

A. become worse    B. settle down

C. experience pain   D. run out

3.According to the study, working memory _______.

A. prevents people from remembering dictated sentences

B. causes people’s minds to wander more easily

C. allows people to consider more things at the same time

D. leads to people’s worse performance during work

4.What’s the text mainly about?

A. How the working memory works in the daily life.

B. Wandering minds might have brighter brains.

C. Why people’s minds wander while working.

D. Working ability can be improved by wandering minds.

When I was 4, my parents decided they could no longer live together. That same year, my mom moved to Los Angeles (L.A.) and a therapist (治疗师) was hired to decide where I would live. Playing with a dollhouse in her office, I showed her the mother’s room on one side and the father’s room on the other. When she asked me about the little boy’s room, I told her the little boy didn’t know where to sleep.

The therapist finally decided I would stay with my dad during the school years and visit my mom on long holidays and for summers. I began flying between two cities and leading two different lives. I remember my last school day in Grade Six. My friends made plans to go to the beach together, but I couldn’t join them because I had to fly to L.A. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to see my mom and stepdad; I just didn’t want to leave my friends. It wasn’t easy to put up a wall, and pretend I didn’t hate saying goodbye to them. In the morning, my dad drove me to school with my packed bags, and after school, my friends went together, and I went to the airport.

What has come of this in the end is that I’m always missing somebody. When I’m in northern California, I miss my mom and stepdad, while in L.A. I miss going out with my friends, my dad, and my little brother and sister. But after so many flights, I’ve learned that it’s also fun traveling between two cities and experiencing different lives. Other children may not have the opportunity to experience so much.

1.The dollhouse game showed that the boy _______ .

A. didn’t want his parents to stay together

B. was very independent

C. had no feeling of belonging

D. didn’t like his parents

2.Why didn’t the author like traveling between two cities at first?

A. Because the traveling separated him from his friends.

B. Because he hated saying goodbye to his mom.

C. Because the traveling made it difficult for him to meet his parents.

D. Because he wanted to spend his summers with his dad.

3.We learn from the text that the author _______ .

A. stayed with his mom during the school years

B. finally accepted his traveling lifestyle

C. enjoyed traveling more than others did

D. never enjoyed staying with his family

4.What would be the best title for the text?

A. Always Miss Somebody

B. Travel on My Own

C. My Divorced Parents

D. My Lonely Life
