In 1899, he studied at a famous university in Zurich (苏黎世). His teacher was Professor Minkevsky.Once Einstein asked Minkevsky, “How can a person, like me, leave his clear footprints on the road of science and make a great contribution?” Minkevsky said that it was a “complicated”problem and he had to give him an answer later.Three days later, Minkevsky told Einstein that the answer was coming! But he didn’t say anything. They walked toward a building site. He asked Einstein to set foot on a concrete (混凝土) road that the workers had just finished.All the workers shouted at him. Einstein was very confused. “Sir, are you leading me the wrong way?” he asked.“Think about it,” Minkevsky said. “Can’t you see? Only the new concrete road surface can leave deep footprints. The old road surface has been hard for a long time. Many people leave steps on the old road. You cannot find your footprint there.” Hearing that, Einstein thought for a long time and nodded.After that, a very strong sense of innovation(创新) began to guide Einstein’s thinking and action. He tried again and again to discover new theories. Nobody could tell him what to do. No book could guide him. But he said, “I never memorize what dictionaries carry. My brain only remembers those things that are not included in books.” It was because of this that Einstein left his shining footprints in the history of science.31.In 1899, Einstein was __________.A. a world-famous scientistB. a professor in a universityC. a worker at a building siteD. a student in a university32.

We could have used the time to do more important things like eating, looking after our families and working. Some scientists believe sleeping helps recharge the body. But now a study suggests a new theory. It says that we may sleep to forget some of the millions of new things we learn each day.The research was published in the journal Science in February. It explained that there are tiny fibers (纤维质) called dendrites (树状突) in the human brain. They grow and connect at points called synapses (突触). This is how we learn new things. The larger the dendrites grow and the more synapses we have, the more information we remember.Researchers said that we learn so many things each day that the dendrites grow too large and we become confused. Sleeping helps the dendrites become smaller. We sort (整理) throughthe information and only keep the most important memories.The team did an experiment on two groups of mice over a four-year period. One group of mice could sleep, while the other group was kept mostly awake. The team found that the sleeping mice had nearly 20 percent fewer synapses.Most researchers believe clearing our brains is not the only purpose of sleep. Resting our minds and bodies can stop us getting sick and help digest (消化) food. There is one thing scientists all agree on though: a good night’s rest is important for our health and happiness!41.

Sleeping helps recharge the body.D. Sleeping helps people forget some new things.42. If some people can remember more information, they have _____.A. larger dendrites and less synapsesB. smaller dendrites and more synapsesC. larger dendrites and more synapsesD. smaller dendrites and less synapses43. Which would confuse humans?A. The synapses becoming smaller.B. The dendrites growing too large.C. The brain becoming smaller.D. The body getting tired.44.Which of the following is TRUE according to the article?A.It takes about one third of humans’ lives to sleep.B.To prevent ourselves from forgetting, we should sleep less.C.The sleeping mice had nearly 20 percent more synapses.D.Clearing our brains is the only purpose of sleep.45. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A. Sleeping can help people clear brains.B. What sleeping can bring people.C. Why scientists study sleeping.D. How to have a good night’s sleep.第II卷(65分)IV.词汇运用（共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分）(A).根据句子意思，从方框中选用恰当的词或短语填空。
