Tom was three year old. He liked to watch TV with his parents after the supper, but his parents never let him stay too longer. His mother would say, “It’s eight o’clock now, and it’s time of you to go to bed, Tom.” “But how don’t you go to bed?” Tom always asked. “We are adults,” his mother would say，“And adults go to bed lately.” One evening Tom asks his mother for an apple. She didn’t want to give him anything eat at bedtime, so she said, “It’s too late, and the apples are already asleep.” “But not both of them, Mom,” Tom said. “The baby apples is perhaps asleep, but their parents are surely awake.”

Hanfu is a traditional robe(长袍) of the Han people, which has a history of thousands of years in China. The number of people adopting the ancient style of dress in modem times has. grown significantly these days. The hanfu clothing industry is now worth one billion yuan(US$140.7 million). 1. However, it may be too early to call it a “revival”(复兴).
2. And it sounds impressive that about 2.2 million people in China wear hanfu. But considering that the clothing retail(零售) industry was worth 1.92 trillion yuan in 2017, one billion yuan is a small number. Similarly, 2.2 million seems a small number considering that China’s population is more than 1.3 billion.
Having played a major role in China’s clothing history, hanfu remained popular until the late 1600s. 3. After pursuing Western fashion, it’s natural that Chinese people are returning to traditional clothing in search of their cultural identity.
But what is the obstacle of hanfu’s revival, despite people’s love for it? 4. The hanfu trend appeared five years ago, so the industry is quite young. And many tailors are still learning how best to make hanfu from historical TV dramas and so on. But most of these historical dramas are fictional, as are many of the clothes the characters wear.
Short-video and live-streaming apps are the other sources that promote the hanfu culture. But most of these live streamers have their own shops. 5. To fulfill their selfish interests, those behind the short videos and live-streaming blame one another instead of working together to revive the hanfu culture.
If these live-streamers really want to develop the hanfu culture, they should change their attitude and work together for the betterment of the hanfu industry.
A.One billion yuan is a huge figure.
B.The lack of a standard seems to be the main problem.
C.The popularity of hanfu reflects the diversity of Chinese culture.
D.This means they promote hanfu culture to increase their own profits.
E.Even the traditional Korean and Japanese costumes originated from it.
F.This has prompted many to say it symbolizes the revival of Han or hanfu culture.
G.It is natural for Chinese people to show their love for traditional culture by wearing hanfu.
Do you sometimes find yourself drawing random patterns(图案)during meetings and lectures? Some people believe it shows you aren’t listening or paying attention. However, there are studies which claim the opposite, and that doodling might actually be beneficial.
Doodling seems to be popular. In the past, it was seen as a mindless activity and a product of the absentminded. However, in 2016, an article on the Harvard University website discussed the idea that random drawings may assist memory retention(保持)and concentration.
The article stresses that 26 of 44 American presidents were known to doodle, with Ronald Reagan famous for drawing cowboys. A 2009 study conducted by psychologist Jackie Andrade asked 40 people to listen to a “dull and boring” voice message. Half of the group were asked to doodle and shade in a picture. Those who did were able to recall 29% more of the information contained in the message.
Some experts believe that willingly accepting your creative and artistic sides during meetings may engage your mind. Jesse Prinz, a famous professor of philosophy, actively encourages his students to doodle. He believes that doodling is the “attentional sweet spot”.
And it might not just be good for your concentration. An artist known as Mr Doodle has made a career out of his scribbles(乱涂乱画).He sells his art online and also goes to people’s homes to decorate their walls.
It seems that random drawing to aid concentration might be becoming more of a thing. People like Sunni Brown, an advocate for doodling, teach adults how to sketch and scribble in the workplace. So, the next time you see someone randomly drawing pictures during a meeting, it might be a sign that they are listening more than you think.
1.Which phrase has the same meaning as doodling?

2.The author refers to Ronald Reagan in order to ________.
A.inform readers of Reagan’s ability

3.Why does Jesse Prinz think that doodling is the “attentional sweet spot”？
A.He thinks that it draws more attention.
B.He thinks that it promises a good career.
C.He believes that it helps to engage the mind.
D.He believes that it can bring economic benefits.
4.What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A.To state the benefits that you can get from random drawing.
B.To provide guidance on leading a random drawing life.
C.To stress the need of distraction at work and in our life.
D.To suggest a way of pursuing concentration in our lifelong career.
