  Questions 81 to 85 are based on the following passage:

  Many of the modern world's most famous discoveries and inventions were not made by scientists, but by amateur (业余的) inventors. Often these inventors had such unusual ideas that they were often laughed at. But people like these inventions. Working on their own, these inventors gave us many of the things we use everyday.

  Clarence Birdseye, who invented frozen foods, was both a successful inventor and a good businessman. But it took him years to overcome the biggest problem of successful inventions -- convincing people to try something new and different. Birdseye first tried to freeze fish. After years of experiments, he started Birdseye Seafoods, Inc. Even though the experiments were successful, people didn't believe that frozen fish could possibly be good. The company was losing money and soon it went bankrupt (破产). Birdseye did not lose heart. It took a long time, but people finally accepted frozen food. By the end of his life, Birdseye, who was a completely self-taught inventor, sold his patents (专利) for a total of 22 million dollars.

  Few inventors were as successful as Birdseye. Some did not realize the importance of their discoveries. The son of the inventor of Coca-Cola sold the recipe for $2,300. Today the product is worth billions of dollars. In 1853, Karl Gerhardt invented aspirin but he didn't know what to do with it. Fifty years after his invention, a German company discovered that was a painkiller and has made millions selling it. Edwin Armstrong invented FM radio, but he spent his life trying to protect his invention. Competitors stole his patents, and companies cheated him out of money. Finally, he became so disappointed with his failures that he ended his life by jumping out of a window.

  Most great inventors, like Gerhardt and Armstrong, made little or nothing from their inventions. The first person with a new idea may get attention, but he also gets the problem of an untried idea. In business, it is sometimes better to be second.

  81. According to the writer, we owe many things we use everyday to people who ______.

  A. went bankrupt

  B. had very strange ideas

  C. were liked by people

  D. killed themselves

  82. Birdseye was not very successful at first because ______.

  A. he tried to freeze fish

  B. he started a company

  C. he did not know what to do with his invention

  D. people did not want to try anything new and different

  83. The son of the inventor of Coca-Cola sold the recipe for ______.

  A. a great deal of money

  B. a small sum of money

  C. what the recipe is worth

  D. nothing at all

  84. Karl Gerhardt invented aspirin ______.

  A. without knowing its uses himself

  B. for a German company

  C. for the doctors

  D. for his family

  85. The writer of the selection implies that most inventors ______.

  A. are from wealthy families

  B. are great scientists

  C. are not good businessmen

  D. do not get attention at all

  Questions 86 to 90 are based on the following passage:

  Have you been in a meeting while someone was making a speech and realized suddenly that your mind was a million miles away? You probably felt sorry and made up your mind to pay attention and never have daydreaming again. Most of us, from earliest school days, have been told that daydreaming is a waste of time.

  "On the contrary," says L. Giambra, an expert in psychology(心理学), "Daydreaming is quite necessary. Without it, the mind couldn’t get done all the thinking it has to do during a normal day... You can't possibly do all your thinking with a conscious mind. Instead, you unconscious mind is working out problems all the time. Day dreaming then may be one way that the unconscious and conscious states of mind have silent dialogues."

  Early experts in psychology paid no attention to the importance of daydreams or even considered them harmful. At one time daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental illnesses. They did not have a better understanding of daydreams until the late 1980s. Erric Klinger, a professor of psychology, is the writer of the book Daydreaming. Klinger says: "We know how that daydreaming is one of the main ways that we organize our lives, learn from our experiences, and plan for our futures... Daydreams really are a window on the things we fear and the things we long for in life."

  Daydreams are usually very simple and direct, quite unlike deep dreams, which may be hard to understand. It’s easier to gain a deep understanding of your life by paying close attention to your daydreams than by trying to examine your sleep dreams carefully. Daydreams help you recognize the difficult situations in your life and find out a possible way of handling them.

  Daydreams cannot be predicted(预见); they move off in unexpected directions which may be creative and full of useful ideas. For many famous artists and scientists, daydreams were and are a main source of creative energy.

  So the next time you catch yourself daydreaming, don't stop. Just pay attention to your dream. It may be more important than you think.

  86. Daydreaming used to be considered ______.

  A. very simple and direct

  B. unimportant and even harmful

  C. a necessary part of thinking

  D. the result of an unconscious mind

  87. In what way are daydreams different from sleep dreams?

  A. Daydreams are easier for us to understand.

  B. Daydreams are not so easy for us to control and direct.

  C. Daydreams help us to handle more different situations.

  D. Daydreams help to develop an unconscious mind.

  88. Professor Erric Klinger believes that ______.

  A. We may study our experiences just through our daydreams

  B. daydreams are one of the important ways that we recognize our lives

  C. we should be able to tell our futures by having daydreams

  D. our fears and longings in life are shown in our daydreams

  89. The writer of the article thinks that ______.

  A. Professor Erric Klinger has a better idea than L. Giambra

  B. daydreaming with an unconscious mind will do good to health

  C. daydreaming is more helpful than sleep dreams

  D. many artists and scientists are famous because they have daydreams

  90. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

  A. Daydreaming was once regarded as a cause of some mental illness.

  B. Scientists believe that we can know daydreams before having them.

  C. Experts began to have a better understanding of daydreams in the late 1980s.

  D. Many well-known artists gained energy of creation from daydreams.

  94.不要以貌取人。(judge by …)

  95.依我看来,很少有人不会感染虚荣心或妒忌的。(be immune to)
