Catch yourself daydreaming while washing the dishes again? If this happens often you probably have a pretty capable working memory and a sharper brain, new research suggests.
This mind wandering, it seems, actually gives your working memory a workout. Working memory is the mental work space that allows the brain to juggle multiple thoughts at the same time. The more working memory a person has, the more daydreaming they can do without forgetting the task at hand.
Researchers studied groups of people from the University of Wisconsin-Madison community, ranging in age from 18 to 65. The volunteers were asked to perform simple tasks, like pressing a button every time they took a breath or clicking in response to a letter popping up on a computer screen; these tasks were so easy that their minds were likely to wander, the researchers figured.
The researchers checked in periodically, asking the participants if their minds were on task or wandering. When the task was over, they measured each participant's working memory capacity by having them remember letters while doing math questions. Though all participants performed well on the task, the researchers noticed that the individuals who indicated their minds had wandered more than others also scored higher on the working memory test.
“What this study seems to suggest is that, when circumstances for the task aren't very difficult, people who have additional working memory resources allocate them to think about things other than what they're doing,” said Jonathan Smallwood, a study researcher of the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Science.
When our minds run out of working memory, these off-topic thoughts can take the main stage without us consciously meaning them to; for instance, arriving at home with no memory of the actual trip, or suddenly realizing that they've turned several pages in a book without understanding any of the words.
“It's almost like your attention was so absorbed in the mind wandering that there wasn't any left over to remember your goal to read,” study researcher Daniel Levinson, said in a statement. People with overall higher working memory were better able to stay focused when the task at hand required it. Those who had low working memory often had their thoughts drift away from the task, and did less well at it.
The findings add to past research suggesting these mind drifts can be positive moments. For instance, daydreaming has often been associated with creativity—researchers think that our most creative and inventive moments come when daydreaming. It's likely that the most intelligent among us also have high levels of working memory, Levinson noted.
1. The word “juggle” in the second paragraph can be replaced by “________”.
A. search B. understand C. handle D. foresee
2.What can be concluded from Jonathan Smallwood's words?
A. Absorbed in the mind wandering, your attention left no space for your goal.
B. On the working memory test, people with wandering minds will get high score.
C. Dealing with some easy jobs, people with higher working memory will daydream.
D. People who often have daydreams probably own a pretty capable working memory.
3. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Mind drifts are always positive.
B. Daydreaming is good for the mind.
C. Creative moments come with working memory.
D. The more daydreaming, the more effectively one works.

Most shoplifters (商店扒手)agree that the January sales offer wonderful opportunities for the hard-working thief. With the shops so crowded and the staff so busy, it does not require any extraordinary talent to help you to take one or two little things and escape unnoticed. It is known, in the business, as "hoisting".
But the hoisting game is not what it used to be. Even at the height of the sales, shoplifters today never know if they are being watched by one of those evil little balls(攝像頭)that hang from the ceilings of so many department stores above the most desirable goods.
As if that was not trouble enough for them, they can now be filmed at work and forced to attend a showing of their performance in court.
Selfridges was the first big London store to install videotape equipment to watch its sales floors. In October last year the store won its first court case for shoplifting using an evidence a videotape clearly showing a couple stealing dresses. It was an important test case which encouraged other stores to install similar equipment.
When the balls first make an appearance in shops, it was widely believed that their only function was to frighten shoplifters. Their somewhat ridiculous appearances, the curious holes and red lights going on and off, certainly make the theory believable.
It did not take long, however, for serious shoplifters to start showing suitable respect. Soon after the equipment was in operation at Selfridges, store detective Brian Chadwick was sitting in the control room watching a woman secretly putting bottles of perfume(香水)into her bag.
"As she turned to go," Chadwick recalled, "she suddenly looked up at the 'balls' and stopped. She could not possibly have seen that the camera was trained on her because it is completely hidden, but she must have had a feeling that I was looking at her."
"For a moment she paused, but then she returned to counter and started putting everything back. When she had finished, she opened her bag towards the camera to show it was empty and hurried out of the store."
1. January is a good month for shoplifters because ________.
A they don't need to wait for staff to serve them
B they don't need any previous experience as thieves
C there are so many people in the store
D January sales offer wonderful opportunities for them
2.The case last October was important because ________ .
A. the store got the dresses back
B .the equipment was able to frighten shoplifters
C. other shops found out about the equipment
D. the kind of evidence supplied was accepted by court
3.The woman stealing perfume ________.
A. guessed that the detective had seen her
B. was frightened by its shape
C. could see the camera filming
D. knew that the balls were for her
4. The woman's action before leaving the store shows that she ________.
A. was sorry for what she had done
B. was afraid she would be arrested
C. decided she didn't want what she had picked up
D. wanted to prove she had not intended to steal anything

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。
Any car accident is frightening, but an accident in which your vehicle is thrown into the water, with you trapped inside, is absolutely(絕對地) terrifying.
1. . However, most deaths result from fear, without a plan or understanding what is happening to the car in the water. By adopting a brace(支撐) position, acting decisively and getting out fast, you can save yourself from a sinking vehicle.
Brace yourself for impact (撞擊力). As soon as you're aware that you're going off th e road and into a body of water, adopt a brace position. The impact could set off the airbag system in your vehicle, so you should place both hands on the steering wheel(方向盤) in the "ten and two" position.
Undo your seatbelt. 2. . Release the children, starting with the oldest first. Forget the cell phone call. Your car isn't going to wait for you to make the call.
3. . Leave the door alone at this stage and concentrate on the window. A car's electrical system should work for up to three minutes in water, so try the method of opening it electronically first. Many people don't think about the window as an escape choice either because of fear or misinformation about doors and sinking.
Break the window. If you aren't able to open the window, or it only opens halfway, you'll need to break it with an object or your foot. It may feel counter-intuitive (有悖常理的) to let water into the car. 4. .
Escape when the car has equalized. If it has reached the stage where the car has been filled with water and it has become balanced, you must move quickly and effectively to ensure your survival. 5. . While there is still air in the car, take slow, deep breaths and focus on what you're doing.
A. Open the window as soon as you hit the water.
B. This is the first thing to do, yet it often gets forgotten.
C. Surviving a sinking car is not as difficult as you think.
D. In short, if you know what to do in the water, you will be safe.
E. It takes 60 to 120 seconds for a car to be filled with water usually.
F. Such accidents are particularly dangerous to the risk of drowning(淹死).
G. But the sooner the window is open, the sooner you can escape directly through it.

Have you ever imagined what human beings will look like in the future? Well, now you don’t have to.
According to AsapScience, a Canada-based video channel that touches on many different science topics, humans will be very different creatures 1,000 years from now.
Artificial intelligence, genetic engineering and climate change will work together to change our bodies greatly, according to a video recently published by the channel.
We could, for instance, develop red eyes as our DNA changes, and have darker skin because of global warming.
The video painted a picture of a future world in which our bodies are part human, part machine. Nanobots, or tiny robots, will be put into our bodies, improving our abilities.
“No longer will we be limited by our own physiology. We will truly become a mixture of biology and machine on the inside,” says the video.
Meanwhile, designer babies will cause future generations to grow into intelligent, attractive people. As global warming takes hold, humans will also be skinnier and taller, as this body shape deals with heat better.
In fact, Cadell Last, a researcher at the Global Brain Institute located in Belgium, believes change may happen even faster than this.
As he said in a paper recently published in Current Aging Science, mankind is already going through a major evolutionary change. In less than four decades, Last claims, we will live longer, have children in old age and need artificial intelligence to finish daily tasks.
“Your 80 or 100 is going to be so radically different than your grandparents,” Last said. Instead of living fast and dying young, he believes humans will live slow and die old.
“The biological clock isn’t going to be around forever,” he added, and said that people could pause it for some time using future technology.
Just a few hundred years ago, most humans were working in the fields, while nowadays more and more are getting an education. These are just predictions, and no one can be sure how human beings will evolve in the future. But with such large changes in our environments, it seems likely that we will all look very different one day.
1.Which of the following factors could play a role in the appearance of future humans, according to the text?
A. Advanced technology and global warming.
B. Medicine that fights aging and genetic engineering.
C. The Internet and artificial intelligence.
D. The cold weather and the dangers of machines.
2.The video released by AsapScience said that .
A. humans will be thinner and shorter
B. future humans’ bodies will be part machine
C. humans will develop red eyes that will enable them to see clearly at night
D. tiny robots will be put in humans’ minds and will give them super abilities
3.Which of the following would Cadell Last probably agree with?
A. Future babies will be designed according to their grandparents’ wishes.
B. Our increasing dependence on artificial intelligence will threaten our survival one day.
C. Future technology will pause our biological clocks so that humans live slower and longer.
D. In less than four decades, humans will have a sudden genetic change that will make us rely on artificial intelligence.
4.The main purpose of the article is to .
A. tell us about a prediction of how humans will look in the future
B. offer us different theories on how humans will evolve in the future
C. encourage us to be imaginative about how humans will look in the future
D. inform us what kinds of factors Could influence how humans will look in the future
