① Dreams may make you smart. This was discovered by scientists who do research on dreams.
② What is a dream exactly Scientists explain that during sleep time your brain reviews your experiences in the day. It tries to connect your new experiences with the old memories. As your brain connect things, it turns them into a story, and then you get a dream.
③ Dreams may help you deal with worries and fears. What has happened during the day may be painful. While you are sleeping, however, the brain will replay the painful memories in a safe dream space. There the bad memories become less painful. And you will feel better after waking up.
④ Dreams also seem to be able to help you learn. This idea is supported by a study. So scientists advise you not to stay up all night studying, especially when an exam is coming. They say a sweet dream might help you get higher marks.
⑤ Dreams may make you more creative, too. It was reported that a famous songwriter came up with his best song in a dream, and wrote it down as soon as he woke up. However, dreams alone can’t bring about creativity. In fact, the songwriter spent a lot of time thinking about the song before the dream. In a word, hard work matters more for creativity, though dreams also have to play a role.

a. Make you get a dream. b. Turn things into a story. c. Review your experiences in the day.

a on he but time book final catch doubt write
My favourite book is The Old Man and the Sea. It was 26 in 1952 by the American writer Ernest Hemingway. The 27 became popular very quickly. In 1953, it won the Pulitzer Prize.
The main character is 28 fisherman who hasn’t caught anything for months. One day he 29 a huge fish, but he has to fight for days to kill it. He 30 succeeds, but he can’t pull the fish onto his boat. When the fisherman is 31 his way back, sharks eat the fish, leaving nothing but bones.
This book has taught me not to give up or 32 myself. I’m inspired by how hard the fisherman fights, even though 33 loses the fish in the end. As Hemingway said, “Man is not made for defeat. A man can be destroyed 34 not defeated.” Even though I’ve already read the book three 35 , I’m not tired of it yet. If you’ve never read Ernest Hemingway, I recommend this book.
四、任务型阅读
阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容回答问题或翻译划线部分。
I’m Zhang Hua. The following is my story with Blue Sky Rescue.
Back in 2008, I was hiking in the mountains with some friends when one of them fell and got a bad head injury. We had to find help quickly, so we called an emergency number. It was already dark, and we couldn’t even see where we were. After some time, we heard dogs barking and the voices of the Blue Sky Rescue team. I nearly started crying. We were so thankful that they found us!
I’ve never forgotten that day. Since then, I’ve wanted to help others too. I joined Blue Sky Rescue in 2009, and I’ve been a volunteer ever since. We’ve been to schools and other communities to teach children and adults how to stay safe and prepare for the worst. We’ve also rescued people during emergencies.
Working as a volunteer has taught me many practical life-saving skills. It has also helped me understand the power of teamwork because it’s the key to successful rescues. Most of all, being a volunteer has taught me the value of every life.
The work is difficult. It’s voluntary, so we aren’t paid. We often go without food or sleep. But our primary goal has always been to save as many people as we can. To the people we’ve saved and their loved ones, I know we’re their heroes. And that makes everything we do worth it.
