looking for paper on which to note down the name of a book I am recommending to my mother.Over forty years since my earliest memories of the kitchen pad and pencil，five houses later，the current paper and pencil look the same as they always did.Surely it cant be the same pencil.The pad is more modern，but the wooden stand is definitely the original one.“Im just amazed you still have the same stand for holding the pad and pencil after all these years，” I say to her，walking back into the living room with a sheet of paper and the pencil.“You still use a pencil.Cant you afford a pen？”My mother replies a little sharply.“It works perfectly well.Ive always kept the stand in the kitchen.I never knew when I might want to note down an idea，and I was always in the kitchen in those days.”Immediately I can picture her，hair wild，blue housecoat covered in flour，a wooden spoon in one hand，the pencil in the other，her mouth moving silently.My mother smiles and says，“One day I was cooking and watching baby Pauline，and I had a brilliant thought，but the stand was empty.One of the children must have taken the paper.So I just picked up the breadboard and wrote it all down on the back.It turned out to be a real breakthrough for solving the mathematical problem I was working on.”This storywhich happened before I was bornreminds me how extraordinary my mother was，and is，as a gifted mathematician.I feel embarrassed that I complain about not having enough child-free time to work.Later，when my mother is in the bathroom，I go into her kitchen and turn over the breadboards.Sure enough，on the back of the smallest one，are some penciled marks I recognize as mathematics.Those symbols have traveled unaffected through fifty years，rooted in the soil of a cheap wooden breadboard，invisible(看不到的) exhibits at every meal.24Why has the authors mother always kept the notepad and pencil in the kitchen?ATo leave messages.BTo list her everyday tasks.CTo note down maths problems.DTo write down a flash of inspiration.25What is the authors original opinion about the wooden stand?AIt has great value for the family.BIt needs to be replaced by a better one.CIt brings her back to her lonely childhood.DIt should be passed on to the next generation.26The author feels embarrassed for .Ablaming her mother wronglyBgiving her mother a lot of troubleCnot making good use of time as her mother didDnot making any breakthrough in her field27In the authors mind，her mother is .Astrange in behaviorBkeen on her researchCfond of collecting old thingsDcareless about her appearance答案DBCBCThere is some unwelcome news for students preparing for exams and officers putting in long hoursyou dont need that “refreshment(提神) break” as much as you may think.Scientists believed it was not easy for people to continue their work if they felt the need to have a snack or a rest to make them feel better.They argued that the only way to regain willpower is by supplying more energy to our bodies with rest，food or entertainment.But psychologists have challenged this theory，saying weak willpower is in your head.They found that a persons mindset(理念) and belief about willpower determine how long and how well theyll be able to work on a tough mental exercise.“If you think of willpower as something thats limited，youre more likely to be tired when you perform a difficult task，” said Professor Veronika Job.“But if you think of willpower as something that is not easily depleted，you can go on and on.”The researchers led by Mr.Job designed an experiment to test the students beliefs about willpower.After a tiring task those who believed or were led to believe that willpower was a limited resource performed worse on standard concentration tests than those who thought of willpower as something they had more control over.Mr.Job said，“Students who may already have trouble studying are being told that their powers of concentration are limited，and they need to take frequent breaks.But a belief in willpower as a non-limited resource makes people stronger in their ability to work through challenges.”The findings could help people who are battling with temptation(诱惑)：people following strict diets and doing exercise regularly to lose weight，people trying to overcome addictions，employees facing a tight deadline.Willpower isnt driven by a biologically based process as much as we used to think.28What opinion did scientists have in the past?AWillpower was a limited resource.BIt was hard to regain willpower.CHardworking people seldom took breaks.DPeople could easily feel tired when working.29Which of the following can replace the underlined word “depleted” in Paragraph 3?AGiven up. BRecovered.CUsed up. DChanged.30What can we learn from the findings of the experiment?AStudents benefit most from the research.BFrequent breaks are not good for learning.CWillpower can be regained after people have a good rest.DThe belief in willpower can change a mans behavior.31Why does the author write the text?ATo explain the power of willpower.BTo show us how to build willpower.CTo tell us the ways of gaining willpower.DTo introduce a new theory on willpower.答案ACDDDHave you ever run out of coffee or tea?
