五、阅读理解
According to a new study, high school students who take music classes get better grades on Maths, Science and English exams than their non-musical classmates. If students learnt to play a musical instrument (乐器) in primary school and continued playing in high school, they not only got better grades, but were about one school year ahead of their non-musical classmates.
Experts studied over 112,000 students. These students finished all the 12-grade schoolwork from 2012 to 2015. If one of the students had at least one instrumental music class, he or she was seen as taking music classes. And the music classes need instrumental music experience and include concert bands, jazz bands and so on.
The experts found the relationships between music education and grades were clearer for those who learnt musical instruments. The study shows that the skills learnt in instrumental music class can turn into the students’ learning ability at school.
According to the study, a music student has to learn to read music notation (乐谱), and develop eye-hand-mind coordination (协调) skills, quick listening skills and team skills. All those skills play an important role in developing the learner’s different abilities.
Lots of people shared their opinions on the Internet. Some said they agreed with the result. They thought it was interesting. However, others didn’t think so. They thought music education had nothing to do with grades.
43.Which of the following is TRUE about the study
A.Experts studied more than 120,000 students in this study.
B.There were both primary school students and middle school students in this study.
C.The study shows that non-musical students aren’t so clever as music students.
D.The study shows that grades have something to do with music education.
44.Which two groups of students did the experts compare in the study
A.Students who finished all the 12-grade schoolwork and students who did not.
B.Primary school students and high school students.
C.Students who took instrumental music lessons and students who did not.
D.Students who got good grades and students who got bad grades.
45.According to the study, how many skills can a student learn when taking music lessons which are helpful for developing learner’s abilities
A.One. B.Two. C.Four. D.Six.
46.How does the writer think of the study
A.The writer supports the result.
B.The writer thinks music education could do nothing to students’ grades.
C.The writer doesn’t think it’s a meaningful study.
D.The writer doesn’t share his own thoughts on this study.
