5．Do you know where J．K．Rowling wrote the Harry Potter books？She wrote the first book in a coffee shop．Was it because she felt more creative when working there？The answer might be yes．
Scientists found that moderate（適度的）noise can make people more creative，The New York Times reported．
Scientists did tests on students．They divided them into four groups．They then asked the students to do certain tasks involving creative thinking．But each group did the task with different volumes（音量）of background noise．They found that students did best when working under moderate noise-70 decibels（分貝）．This is about the same volume of background noise in a cafe．Students did worse in low noise （50 dB）．This is the volume of a quiet room．They did the poorest when in a high-noise （85 dB） environment．This is the noise level in a factory．
Moderate noise can distract（分心）people just enough so that they think more creatively． "It helps you think outside the box，" Raci Mehta，a lead researcher in the study，said to the Business Standard．On the one hand，working in a very quiet place can strengthen our focus．But it also stops us from thinking abstractly（抽象）．
"This is why if you are too focused on a problem and you can't solve it，" said Mehta， "you leave it for some time and then come back to it and you'll get the solution．"
However，the scientists said that when you need to do detailed things，like proofreading（校對(duì)）a paper，a quiet place is better than a noisy one．
（1）The first paragraph tells us that．
A．J．K．Rowling likes drinking coffee
B．working in a coffee shop might help people become creative
C．the best novels are born in coffee shops
D．moderate noise makes people creative
（2）helps students do best in creative tasks．
A．85 dB
B．70 dB
C．50 dB
D．0 dB
（3）Working in a very quiet place can．
A．help people think outside the box
B．make people think abstractly
C．help people find the solution easily
D．help people focus on their work
（4）The main idea of the passage is．
A．how to work under a moderate noise level
B．why J．K．Rowling likes to write stories in a coffee shop
C．why moderate noise is good for creative thinking
D．how scientists tested students' learning abilities組卷：16引用：2難度：0.4
