You have waited 45 minutes for the valuable 10 minutes’ break between classes. But when the bell for the next class rings, you can’t 36 how quickly time has passed.
If you are familiar with this 37 , you’ll know how time flies when you are having fun-and 38 when you are bored. Now scientists have 39 a reason why this is the case.
Scans have shown that patterns of activity in the brain 40 according to how we focus on a task. When we are 41 , we concentrate more on how time is passing. And this makes our brains 42 the clock is ticking more slowly.
In an experiment 43 by a French laboratory, 12 volunteers watched an image 44
researchers monitored their brain activity.
The volunteers were told to 45 concentrate on how long an image appeared for, then
46 the color of the image, and thirdly, study both duration and color. The results showed that 47 was more active when the volunteers paid 48 subjects.
It is thought that if the brain is 49 focusing on many aspects of a task, it has to 50 its resources, and pays less attention to the clock. 51 , time passes without us really 52 it, and seems to go quickly. If the brain is not so active, it concentrates its 53 energies on monitoring the passing of time. 54 , time seems to drag.
Next time you feel bored 55 , perhaps you should pay more attention to what the teacher is saying!

36 C
課間十分鐘玩得很開心,時間在不知不覺中就過去了。此處用can’t believe表示對這段時間飛快流逝的驚訝與感嘆。
37 C
上文提到的是一種特定的心理場面描寫,而不是人所經(jīng)歷的某一件具體的事情,故選C。scene情節(jié),場面 ;experience經(jīng)驗,經(jīng)歷,閱歷。
38 A
根據(jù)文中倒數(shù)第二段的解釋可得知答案。drag拖長,此處指時間過的很慢。
39 D
thought over仔細考慮 ;make up 組成; suggest建議;表明; come up with提出。
科學家是以實驗為基礎(chǔ)進行研究而提出的一種原因。
40 A
聯(lián)系下文的實驗可知,當人的大腦集中于一個任務的多個面的時候,就變得比較活躍,反之,則變得不那么活躍。所以當大腦所注意的任務不同的時候,大腦的活動狀態(tài)是不一樣的。
41 B
聯(lián)系上下文可知,人在比較厭煩或感到無事可做的時候,才覺的時間過得很慢。
42 B
時間過得很慢只是人的一種潛在的意識。
43 D
空格所缺的詞做定語,應與前面的experiment構(gòu)成動賓關(guān)系,結(jié)合下文進行的實驗可知,只有D項符合。B項應改為carried out 。
44 C
此處用while強調(diào)在實驗過程中,被實驗者與研究人員的任務對比關(guān)系。
45 D
根據(jù)后面的then; thirdly可得知答案。
46 B
根據(jù)后文49個空后面的解釋可知,實驗的目的是讓大腦不停的專注于一個任務的多個方面。
47 D
此處指被研究人員的大腦思維比較活躍。
48 D
結(jié)合上文的實驗可知,研究人員是讓實驗者的大腦專注于一個任務的多個方面。
49 A
be busy doing…忙于……為固定搭配;be likely to do…可能做……; be ready to do…準備做……; be sure of/about對……確信。
50 D
聯(lián)系上下文可知,當大腦專注于一個任務的多個方面時,它的精力就會被分散,因而就轉(zhuǎn)移了對時間的注意。spread 此處為分散。
51 C
此處是上述實驗所得出的一個結(jié)論 。
52 C
根據(jù)后文的 seems to go quickly可知,時間在不知不覺中過去。
53 B
如果大腦不太活躍的時候,就會把相當多的精力集中在計算時間上,right/ proper正確的,恰當?shù),同義,可排除。enough足夠的;full充足的;相當多的。
54 B
本句是根據(jù)前面的分析而得出的結(jié)論。
55 A
本句與文章第一段相對應,是對第一段在課堂出現(xiàn)的問題的一種解決方法。另外,根據(jù)最后一句也可得出答案。
