【題目】閱讀理解
One afternoon I visited an art museum while waiting for my husband to finish a business meeting. I was looking forward to a quiet view of the art works.
A young couple viewing the paintings ahead of me chatted nonstop (不停) between themselves. I watched them a moment and found the wife was doing all the talk. I admired (贊賞) the husband for putting up with her continuous (持續(xù)的) talk. Distracted (分心) by their noise, I moved on.
I met with them many times as I moved through the different rooms of art. Each time I heard her continuous talk, I moved away quickly.
I was standing at the counter (柜臺) of the museum gift shop when the couple came near to the exit. Before they left, the man reached into his pocket and pulled out a white thing. He extended (展開) it into a long stick and then tapped (敲打) his way into the coatroom to get his wife's jacket.
“He's a brave man.” The salesman at the counter said, “Most of us would give up (放棄) if we were blind (瞎的) at such a young age. But he said his life wouldn't change during his recovery (恢復). So, as before, he and his wife come in when there's a new art show.”
“But how does he enjoy the art?” I asked, “He can't see.”
“Can't see? You're wrong. He sees a lot. More than you or I do.” The clerk said, “His wife describes each painting so he can see it in his head.”
I learned something from the couple that day. I saw a young wife describing paintings to a person without sight (視力) and a husband who would not allow blindness to change his life. And I saw the love shared by two people as I watched this couple walk away hand in hand.
(1)The young couple was at an art museum ________.
A.to show their love

(3)We can infer (推斷) from the passage that the husband _______.
A.was not born blind
B.couldn't stand (忍受) his wife
C.knew nothing about art
D.completely depended on (完全依靠) his wife
(4)After hearing what the clerk said about the couple, the writer was _______.
A.brave
B.excited
C.touched
D.angry
(5)The passage is mainly about _______.

B
Dreams may be more important than sleep. Some people don't need much sleep. But we all need to dream, scientists say.
Dreams take up about one quarter of our sleeping time. People have several dreams each night. Dreams are like short films. They are usually in color. Some dreams are like old films. They come to us over and over again. That may be because the dreamer is worrying about something. Dreaming may be a way of trying to find an answer.
Some people get new ideas about their work from dreams. They could have been thinking about their work all day. These thoughts can carry over into dream. Sometimes we wake up with a good feeling from a dream. But often we can't remember the dream.
Dreams can disappear quickly from memory. Too much dreaming can be harmful. The more we sleep, the longer we dream. The mind is hard at working when we dream. That is why we may have a long sleep and still wake up tired.
