Bunny almost mistook it for a dog.\n\"Are you a reindeer?\" asked Bunny.\n\"Yes,\" replied the brown animal with antlers. \"My name is Ralph.\"\n\"And you were pulling Santa's sled ?\"\n\"I was until I got air-sick,\" replied Ralph. \"Santa had to leave me here and go on with the other seven reindeer.\"\n\"Isn't it a bit unusual for a reindeer to get air-sick?

Now I'm stuck here and I don't know how to get back to the North Pole.\"\n\"Well, if you like, you can stay with us as a friend,\" said Bunny.

Before you complain about life,think of some ones who went to heaven too early. Before you complain about your old house, think of the people who are living in the streets.

But when the bell for the next class rings, you can't believe how quickly time has passed. If you have this experience, you'll know how time flies when you are having fun and _ when you are bored. Now scientists have come up with a reason why this happens.\nThey have found that the brain changes its way to work according to how we direct our attention to a task. When we are bored, we pay more attention to how time is passing. And this makes our brains think the clock is ticking more slowly.\nRecently some researchers who want to understand the conditions carried out an experiment. In the experiment, twelve volunteers watched a picture while researchers monitored their brain activity.\nThe volunteers were told to first notice how long a picture appeared, then the color of the picture, and thirdly, study the both. The results showed that the brain was more active when the volunteers paid attention to more subjects.\nIt is thought that if the brain is busy noticing many aspects of a task, it has to spread its resources, and pays less attention to the clock. Therefore, time seems to go quickly. If the brain is not so active, it spends its full energy on the passing of time. As a result, time seems to move slowly.\nNext time you feel bored in class, perhaps you should concentrate on what the teacher is saying.\n\n<question>:\nWhat have the scientists found?\n\n<options>:\nA Time goes by fast when we have nothing to do.\nB The ten minutes' break is important to students.\nC The brain works in different ways in different situations.\nD Students pay more attention to the pictures than the passing of time.\n\n<answer>:\n", "assistant": "C" } ]
