12、t, fixed her eyes upon Elinor, saw her turning pale, fell back in her chair and lost control of her emotions. Mrs. Dashwood was shocked to realize by Elinors expression how much she really suffered.Mrs. Dashwood immediately took all that trouble on herself, and Elinor had the benefit of the informat

13、ion without the effort of seeking it.“Who told you that Mr. Ferrars was married, Thomas?”“I see Mr. Ferrars myself, maam, this morning in Exeter, and his lady too, Miss Steele as was. They were stopping in a chaise（马车）at the door of the New London Inn, and she knew me and called to me, and inquired

14、after you, maam, and the young ladies, especially Miss Marianne.”“But did she tell you she was married, Thomas?”“Yes, maam.” She smiled, and said how she had changed her name since she was in these parts.“Was Mr. Ferrars in the carriage with her?”“Yes, maam, I just see him leaning back in it, but he

15、 did not look up: he never was a gentleman much for talking.”Elinors heart could easily account for his not putting himself forward, and Mrs. Dashwood probably found the same explanation.“Was there no one else in the carriage?” “No, maam, only they two.”“Do you know where they came from?”“They come

16、straight from town, as Miss Steele - Mrs. Ferrars told me.” “And are they going farther westward?”“Yes, maam, but they will soon be back again, and then theyd be sure and call here.”Thomass intelligence seemed over. Elinor looked as if she wished to hear more. Mrs. Dashwood could think of no other q

20、hwoods would never see Mr. Ferrars again.D. The news upset the mother and daughter terribly.CA study by Harvard researchers found that mind wandering, or daydreaming, consumes an average of 47% of peoples waking hours. This brings about the question: If mind wandering is so costly to our well-being,

21、 then why in the world are we so willing to spend nearly half of our lives in this mental state?Creative thinkers know, despite what their parents, teachers and school leaders might have told them, that daydreaming is hardly a waste of time. But unfortunately, many students learn to suppress（抑制）thei

22、r natural instincts to dream and imagine - instead, theyre taught to fit into a standardized model and to learn by the book, in a way that may not feel natural and that very well may suppress their natural desire to create. But as two famous psychologists recently noted, “Not all minds who wander ar

23、e lost” - in fact, the minds wandering is vital to imagination and creative thought.Nearly 50 years ago, psychologist Jerome L. Singer established that daydreaming is a normal and indeed widespread aspect of human experience. He found that many people are “happy daydreamers” who enjoy their inner im

24、agery and fantasy. According to Singer, these daydreamers “simply value and enjoy their private experiences, are willing to risk wasting a certain amount of time on them, but also can apparently use them for effective planning and for self-amusement during periods of routine task activity or boredom

25、.”Singer coined the term positive-constructive daydreaming to describe this type of mind wandering, which he differentiated from poor attention and anxious, obsessive fantasies. By making these important distinctions, Singer was able to highlight the positive, adaptive role that daydreaming can play

26、 in our daily lives, under the right circumstances.28. Who are aware that daydreaming is not a waste of time?A. Teachers.B. Parents.C. School leaders.D. Creative thinkers.29. According to the text, daydreaming is very important to _.A. learning by the bookB. imagination and creationC. suppression of

27、 inner desiresD. instincts and amusements30. What does the underlined word “them” in the third paragraph refer to?A. Private experience.B. Circumstances.C. Fantasies.D. Happy dreamers.31. What is true of positive-constructive daydreaming according to the passage?A. It is a useful mental state.B. It

28、is similar to poor attention.C. It is an anxious obsessive fantasy.D. It is a standardized model.DThere are so many rabbits across Australia that it may be surprising to learn that they are a non-native species. A few rabbits arrived with British settlers in 1788, but it was not until 1859, when a B

29、ritish-born farmer named Thomas Austin brought 24 European rabbits to his land for hunting, that they began to live there. They are an excellent example of an invasive（侵入的）species, a non-native species that does harm to its new environment.Rabbits have lived well in many different environments withi

30、n Australia, such as grasslands, coastal areas, farmland, and even in towns or cities. Their activities have destroyed crops and plants. They compete directly with other wildlife for food and shelter, including taking over burrows（地洞）of other animals. They have led to dangerously reduced populations

31、 of many plant and animal species.Efforts to control the rabbit population have had mixed success. The first main effort was the Rabbit-Proof Fence. In 1901, the government started building a knee in the state of Western Australia to protect farmland from rabbits. By the time it was finished in 1907

32、, the Rabbit-Proof Fence ran some 2,000 miles from north to south. The Acting Chief Inspector of Rabbits, Alexander Crawford, headed a team whose job was to go around keeping the fence in working order. But over time, the fence proved to be no match for the rabbits.Other main efforts have included p

33、rograms to destroy rabbit burrows or use viruses that sicken and kill rabbits. Again, these efforts have been less than successful. The big problem to any efforts to control the rabbit population is simply that their population grows so quickly. One female can have 30 young in a year.If Thomas Austi

34、n had known the damage that the rabbits would cause across the country, he might have had second thoughts about bringing rabbits to Australia.32. Why did rabbits begin to live in Australia? A. They travelled there by chance.B. They were brought in by Thomas Austin.C. They were introduced by the gove

35、rnment.D. They moved there to escape bad environment.33. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A. Some activities of rabbits.B. Rabbits ability to live in the wild.C. How fast the population of rabbits grows.D. The damage rabbits have caused to Australia.34. How successful was the Rabbit-Proof Fence? A.

36、 It failed in the beginning.B. It didnt live up to expectations.C. It was unfinished for lack of money.D. It failed later for nobody protected it.35. What would be the best title for the text? A. Rabbits and farmingB. Efforts to control rabbitsC. Rabbits: experts in burrowingD. Rabbits: unwelcome ne
