It is put up in a room neighboring to the Powel House parlor(客厅), a period room from one of Philadelphia’s greatest eighteenth-century private homes, where Washington was frequently entertained by his friends, Samuel and Elizabeth Powel.

Later , during Europe’s Napoleonic Wars, a Spanish duke(公爵) with strong sympathies with American Revolution owned the picture.

AWhen I was 4, my parents decided they could no longer live together. That same year, my mom moved to Los Angeles (L.A.) and a therapist (治疗师) was hired to decide where I would live. Playing with a dollhouse in her office, I showed her the mother’s room on one side and the father’s room on the other. When she asked me about the little boy’s room, I told her the little boy didn’t know where to sleep.The therapist finally decided I would stay with my dad during the school years and visit my mom on long holidays and for summers. I began flying between two cities and leading two different lives. I remember my last school day in Grade Six. My friends made plans to go to the beach together, but I couldn’t join them because I had to fly to L.A. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to see my mom a nd stepdad; I just didn’t want to leave my friends. It wasn’t easy to put up a wall,and pretend I didn’t hate saying goodbye to them. In the morning, my dad drove me to school with my packed bags, and after school, my friends went together, and I went to the airport.What has come of this in the end is that I’m always missing somebody. When I’m in northern California, I miss my mom and stepdad, while in L.A. I miss going out with my friends, my dad, and my little brother and sister. But after so many fl ights, I’ve learned that it’s also fun traveling between two cities and experiencing different lives. Other children may not have the opportunity to experience so much.21.

During the study, volunteers were asked to perform one simple task during which researchers kept asking if their minds were wandering. At the end, volunteers measured their working memory capacity (容量) by their ability to remember a series of letters mixed with simple maths questions.Daniel Levinson, a professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in the United States, said that those with higher working memory capacity reported “more mind wandering during these simple tasks”, but their performance did not suffer.The results, published online in the journal Psychological Science, appear to confirm former research that found working memory allows humans to deal with multiple thoughts at the same time.Dr Jonathan Smallwood, of the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Science in Leipzig, Germany, said, “What this study seems to suggest is that, when surroundings for the task aren’t very difficult, people with additional working memory capacity use them effectively to think about other things besides what they’re doing.”Working memory capacity is also associated with general measures of intelligence, such as reading comprehension and IQ scores. Dr Smallwood added: “Our results suggest the sort s of planning that people do quite often in daily life –when they are on the bus, when they are cycling to work, when they are in the shower –are probably supported by working memory.”28. During the study, the researchers asked the volunteers to _______.A. solve some difficult maths problemsB. retell some dictated sentencesC. follow the teacher’s instructionsD. carry out one simple task29. The underlined word “suffer” in the fourth paragraph probably means _______.A. become worseB. settle downC. experience painD. run out30. According to the study, working memory _______.A. prevents people from remembering dictated sentencesB. causes people’s minds to wander more easilyC. allows people to consider more things at the same timeD. leads to people’s worse performance during work31. What’s the text mainly about?A. How the working memory works in the daily life.B. Wandering minds might have brighter brains.C. Why people’s minds wander while working.D. Working ability can be improved by wandering minds.【答案】28．D29．A30．C31．B【解析】【名师点睛】本文属于主旨大意题，主旨大意题要求考生能够迅速抓住文章的主题句。
