1、Unit 22 B卷一、阅读理解AA good nights sleep may help your brain file away lessons learned during the day.But，according to a new study，the brain begins processing and storing those memories long before its time for bed and continues to do so even while youre thinking about and doing other things.Recent stud
2、ies have shown that the parts of the brain that we use to learn a task become active again during sleep.This activity，scientists suggest，could be the brain transferring memories from shortterm to longterm storage.But the brain doesnt necessarily wait until the lights are out to begin processing thos
3、e memories.To find out how the brain handles memories during waking hours，scientists gave 15 volunteers two tasks，each requiring different parts of the brain to learn.In one task，the subjects learned how to drive in a virtual(虚拟的)town and then searched the town for an object.In the second task，they

5、ter the task was completed.After a break，the scientists took a third image of each participants brain.They wanted to determine whether these regions in the brain continued to be active after more time had passed and they discovered that，for at least an hour after a learning task，the brain stayed act
6、ive.It appeared to continue processing the new information.Furthermore，the images showed that distracting the subjects doesnt affect their ability to store memories.The processing continues even when theyre thinking about or doing other things.Some scientists say this could mean that sleep isnt esse
7、ntial for storing memories.Others disagree.Until thats settled，its probably still better to be on the safe side，getting plenty of sleep.1The fact that the parts of the brain that we use to learn a task become active again during sleep may suggest _.Awe are dreaming a dream about the lessons we learn

11、 helps memoryDsleep on the safe side is good to usBAlthough it might have happened anywhere，my encounter with the green banana started on a steep mountain road in the central area of Brazil.I was driving up through beautiful countryside when the radiator(水箱)began to leak.I stopped at the next villag
12、e，which consisted of a small store and a few houses.People came over to look.“Thats easy to fix，”a man said.He sent a boy running for some green bananas.He patted me on the shoulder，assuring me that everything would work out.“Green bananas，”he smiled.Everyone agreed.We chatted casually while all the
13、 time I was wondering what they could possibly do to my radiator with their green bananas.I did not ask them，though，as that would show my ignorance，so I talked about the beauty of the land that lay before our eyes.Huge rock formations，like Sugarloaf Mountain in Rio de Janeiro，rose up all around us.“
14、Do you see that tall one right over there？”asked the man，pointing to a particularly tall，slender pinnacle (尖端)of dark rock.“That rock marks the center of the world.”I looked to see if he was teasing me，but his face was serious.He，in turn，inspected me carefully，as if to make sure I grasped the signif
15、icance of his statement.The occasion called for some show of recognition on my part.“The center of the world？”I repeated，trying to show interest.He nodded.“The absolute center.Everyone around here knows it.”At that moment the boy returned with an armful of green bananas.The man cut one in half and p
16、ressed the cut end against the radiator jacket.The banana melted into a glue against the hot metal，stopping the leaks instantly.I was so astonished at this that I must have looked rather foolish and everyone laughed.They then refilled my radiator and gave me extra bananas to take along.An hour later
17、，after using the green banana once more，my radiator and I reached our destination.It took me a little longer to fully grasp the importance of the rock which the villagers believed marked the center of the world.I had at first doubted their claim，as I knew for a fact that the center was located somew
18、here else in New England.After all，my grandfather had come from there.But gradually I realized the village people had a very reasonable belief and I agreed with them.We all tend to regard the center as that special place where we are known，where we know others，where things mean much to us，and where
19、we ourselves have both identity and meaning：family，school，town and local region could all be our center of the world.The lesson which gradually dawned on me was actually very simple.Every place has special meanings for the people in it，and in a certain sense every place represents the center of the
20、world.The world has numerous such centers，and none of the students or travelers can experience all of them.But once a conscious breakthrough to a second center is made，a lifelong perspective and collection can begin.The cultures of the world are full of unexpected green bananas with special value an
21、d meaning.They have been there for ages，ripening slowly，perhaps waiting patiently for people to come along to encounter them.In fact，a green banana is waiting for all of us if we would leave our own centers of the world in order to experience other places.5The author stopped at a village on his way
