There are 170 million Brazilians. How many of them are football fans? 100 million! All of them think that they know all about football. This makes life very difficult for the Brazilian team managers. When things go bad for the Brazilian team, the newspapers would demand that the team manager should leave his job. “If we win, they put me in heaven,”a manager once said. “If we lose, they put me in hell (地狱).”You can’t escape football in Brazil. There are football match es on every street and beach. On television, the results of football matches come before the main news programs. There are six television channels (频道) in Rio de Janieiro. On Sundays each channel shows a different football match.Brazil is not the richest country in the world, but the government spends lotsof money on football. It cost more than one billion pounds to prepare for the 1978 World Cup. That’s 10 pounds for every Brazilian man, woman, and child. And many Brazilians don’t earn as much as 10 poun ds a week. Is it worth it?“Brazil must have a great football team,” says one journalist. “If it costs one billion pounds, that’s all right. If the government doesn’t give us a good team, then it will become unpopular. Football is more than a game in Brazi l.”Football is more than a game in Brazil. This is certainly true in its largest city, San Paulo. The most popular team is Corinthians. Corinthians’ fans are the most loyal and emotional in Brazil. When Corinthians win, production in the Sao Paulo car factories increases by fifteen per cent. When they lose, it drops. At one time Corinthians won the national championship for the first time. For four days fans danced and sang in the streets.Why are people so loyal to one football team? What makes a football fan? One man says, “Without Corinthians my life would be sad. Corinthians bring some joy and excitement into my life. We all need that, don’t we?”29．In paragraph 1, what the manager said means _______.A．he is respected by newspapersB．he will probably be killed by fansC．he is judged on his team’s resultsD．it’s difficult for him to get good scores30．All the following statements about the Brazilians and football are true EXCEPT ___.A．all the Brazilians know all about footballB．football has an influence on politics in BrazilC．the Brazilians spend a lot of money on footballD．Corinthians’ fans are always supporting their team31．Some people danced and sang in the streets for four days in Sao Paulo because __.A．production in the Sao Paulo car factories increasedB．Corinthians won a national football championshipC．Corinthians won the World CupD．the newspapers put a team manager in heaven32．The best title for the passage might be _______.A．Attractive football B．Football fansC．What makes a football fan D．Brazilian CorinthiansDDO you and your friends ever talk about your dreams with each other?If you do, you might have noticed something interesting – some of your friends rarely remember their dreams, but some can always describe their dreams so vividly (生动地) that it seems like they’re describing things that really happened to them. What makes those people different?The answer is simple: they are two different types of dreamers – low dream recallers and high dream recallers.Low dream recallers usually remember their dreams only twice a month. But high dream recallers are able to remember them on average (平均) five mornings a week. And a new study suggests that activity in a certain part of the brain could have something to do with it, reported The Huffington Post.Perrine Ruby, a French researcher at the Lyon Neuroscience Rese arch Center,studied 41 people (21 high dream recallers and 20 low dream recallers) and recorded their brain activities.She found that a brain part called the temporo-parietal junction was more active in high dream recallers than in low dream recallers –both when they were sleeping and awake.This brain area is responsible for collecting and processing (处理) information from the outside world. This means that high dream recallers are more sensitive (敏感的) to what’s happening around them. For example, when they are awake, they respond (反应) more strongly to hearing their own names, and when they are sleeping, they tend to be woken more easily by sounds and movements.By closely studying people’s brain activities, Ruby did find that high dream recallers have twice as much “wakefulness (清醒) time” during sleep as low dream recallers do. And it is during these short periods of wakefulness that the brain memorizes (记住) dreams.“The sleeping brain is not capable (有能力的) of memorizing new information,” Ruby was quoted as saying by The Washington Post. “It needs to awaken to be able to do that.”33. According to the article, high dream recallers ______.A. can remember their dreams clearlyB. have very little brain activity during sleepC. don’t know how to describe their dreamsD. remember their dreams twice a week34. Compared to high dream recallers, low dream recallers ______.A. respond faster when hearing their namesB. have more sleepless nightsC. are more easily woken at nightD. have higher sleep quality35. What is the main purpose of the last paragraph?A. To show the benefits of being a low dream recaller.B. To suggest what to do to become a low dream recaller.C. To arouse readers’ interest in future studies.D. To further explain Ruby’s quotation.（二）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
