    A good way to look at failure straight in the face is by writing a failure resume(简历)or CV. Like social mediatherewe usually only see our friends’“highlight part”. When we look at others’resumeswe get scared and think how ours doesn’t measure up. But even the most accomplished people have plenty of failure behind them—we just don’t see it.

Stefan felt this deeply as a scientistso she wrote a different CV which of course boasted (夸耀)about her good gradesPhDand published papers. But the way she deals with her failure CV is a model of what we could a11 do.

“My CV does not reflect my great academic efforts—it does not mention the exams I failedmy unsuccessful PhD or scholarship applicationsor the papers never accepted for publication. During the interviewsI talk about the one project that workednot about the many that failed”writes Stefan in a column for Nature.com.

Stefan suggests keeping a draft on which you logcasually but regularlyevery unsuccessful applicationrefused grant proposal and rejected paper.

And that’s the pointnot to consider what we got wrongbut to use that information to both look at failure and realize it’s really okayand also to use our failures for another purposeas learning tools.

The point is to be real—with ourselves and about how the world works. Being real means taking an honestcriticalbut also kind look at what we didn’t get rightand then doing our best to change what we can. Instead of focusing on how that failure makes you feeltake the time to step back and analyze the practicaloperational reasons that you failed.

Soprctice being okay with failureand turning your failures into lessons learned. And yessometimes we have to learn those lessons more than onceletting go of what you can’t change. And keep moving forward to success.

1.What does the underlined word“it”in the first paragraph refer to?

A.Plenty of failure. B.A failure resume.

C.Highlight part. D.Social media.

2.What did Stefan intend to tell us in paragraph 3?

A.A11 her failures in her career.

B.Benefits she got from her failures.

C.The content of her own resume.

D.The difference between her resume and others’.

3.What does Stefan advise us to do in our careers?

A.Regard failures as part of our life.

B.Keep a record of our failures.

C.Value our achievements.

D.Long for failures.

4.Which of the following best describes the author’s opinion?

A.No painsno gains.

B.A11 roads lead to Rome.

C.Where there is a willthere is a way.

D.Failure is the mother of success.

    All animals—from humans to birdsworms and crocodiles—sleephowevernot all species sleep alike. Scientists have long puzzled over which aspects are truly fundamental. Now a new study on lizards(蜥蜴)suggests that sleep states once thought to occur only in mammals and birds have much older evolutionary origins.

Scientists had long doubted that birds and mammals are the only vertebrates(脊椎动物)to experience rapid eye movement(REM)a sleep state in which the body is mostly immobile but the brain is overworking. During REM sleepthe brain produces high-frequency waves of electrical activity and the eyes turn suddenly from time to time. In humansREM is closely linked to dreaming. REM is a pattern of slow-wave sleepa state in which brain activity weakens and the waves become more consistent. This slower state is widely thought to be important to memory formation and storage.

“But scientists who looked for signs of REM and slow-wave sleep in reptiles(爬行动物) have had‘confusing’results”says Gilles Laurenta neuroscientist at the Max Planck Institute for Brain Research in FrankfurtGermany. So he and his colleagues had planned to examine how the lizards—a common pet in Germany use visual information to chase treats. Using camerathe team found that the sleeping lizards’eyes twitched during the REM-like stagejust like other animals. They also found a very familiar pattern within the slower phase of the lizards’brain waves. Some scientists believe these waves help transform new information into memories by replaying past events quickly.

Although more studies are still needed to determine whether the function of these brain wave patterns is the same across speciesthe results suggest that these REM and slow-wave sleep patterns could date all the way back to the common ancestor of reptilesbirdsand mammals.

1.What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about?

A.The origin of human dream.

B.The definition and effect of REM.

C.The features and course of memory.

D.The advantages and disadvantages of REM.

2.Which of the following can best replace the underlined word“twitched”in paragraph 3 ?

A.opened wide B.moved quickly

C.stayed closed D.kept still

3.How does the lizards’brain waves turn information into memories according to some scienfists?

A.By increasing their frequency slowly.

B.By changing their pattern occasionally.

C.By playing back the past events quickly.

D.By connecting visual information effectively.

4.What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A.The function of the brain wave is the same.

B.All the animals have the common ancestor.

C.The sleep pattern of all the animals is the same.

D.The study about sleep pattern has a long way to go.
