A
To me，life without music would not be exciting.I realize that this is not true for everybody.Many people get along quite well without going to the concert，or listening to the record.But music plays an important part in everyone’s life，whether he realizes it or not.Try to imagine，for example，what films or TV plays would be like without music.Would the feelings，the moving plots and the greatest interests，be so exciting or dramatic？I’m not sure about it.
Now we have been speaking of music in its more common meaning—the kind of music we hear in the concert hall；we discover them in our everyday life too—in the rhythm of the sea，the melody of a bird in the woods and so on.So music surely has meaning for everyone，in some way or other.And，of course，it has special meaning for those who have spent all their lives working on playing or writing music.
It is well said，“Through music a child enters a world of beauty，expresses himself from his heart，feels the joy of doing things alone，learns to take care of others，develops his mind and makes his body strong.”
1． What does the writer say more about in the text?
A．Life full of music.
B．Life without music.
C．The importance of music.
D．The development of music.
2． From the text，we learn that many people ________.
A．don’t realize the importance of music
B．get along quite well without music
C．go to the concert instead of enjoying music
D．think music would be less exciting than films
3． What does the underlined word “melody” in the second paragraph mean in the text?
A．Flying. B．Looking.
C．Singing. D．Living.
4． From the last paragraph，we learn that music ________.
A．is very important，especially for children
B．is very necessary for our everyday life
C．can make our life exciting and dramatic
D．can enter into another beautiful world
B
Many studies have been conducted to find the deeper benefits of listening to and playing music.The growing field of music treatment is presenting increasing amounts of evidence that point toward the greater powers of music.
Emotional benefits
The right song can put anybody in a better mood.Most people turn to certain songs to improve their moods.The main reason behind it is that music has the ability to express our feelings better than any other medium.In addition，we have favourite songs for particular situations because we tune into the melodies (悦耳的音调) that catch our nerves the best.
Music and exercise
Have you ever noticed how out of breath you get when listening to an exciting song while doing exercise at the gym？It has been suggested that stimulating (刺激的) music can actually increase muscle tension，while sedative (镇定的) music decreases it.
It has also been proved that music can improve motor skills.An experiment conducted on a group of elementary students proved that children learning basic motor skills such as throwing，catching and jumping while listening to music did better than those with no music.
Chronic (慢性的) pain relief
Music has the ability to ease the sense of chronic pain.In fact，according to a paper in the Journal of Advanced Nursing，music can reduce chronic pain by 21%.The paper reports that 60 patients in an experiment were divided into two groups—music and no music.The results showed that people who listened to music for an hour each day for a week had improved physical and psychological diseases compared to those who did not.
5． The best title of the passage is ________.
A．The Study of Music
B．Physical and Mental Benefits of Music
C．How Music Can Help Patients
D．Music Helps to Improve Work Efficiency
6． Why do people turn to songs for better feelings?
A．Because songs have magic.
B．Because listening to music is their hobby.
C．Because they can find comfort in songs.
D．Because music can express their mood well.
7． If we want to have our muscle relaxed，we’d better choose ________.
A．rock and roll
B．some exciting songs
C．some light music
D．classical songs
8． The basic motor abilities do not include________.
A．pushing B．casting
C．seizing D．leaping

This may be music to your ears.
Scientists did research on about 3,500 people.They asked them to name their favorite kind of music.“We found that the musical style people like are closely linked to their personalities，” Gosling says.
RAP/HIP-HOP
Known for their quick speech，some rappers can say more than 700 syllables(音节) a minute!
If you like rap/hip-hop，you are energetic(精力充沛的) and have a way with words.You_put_a_fresh_spin_on_things，whether it’s new moves on the dance floor or your hip style.
CLASSICAL
In the 18th century，classical musicians were like rock stars.Beethoven and Mozart，for example，played in packed concert halls.
If you like classical，you are open to new ideas and like debating with friends.Creative and imaginative，you can easily spend many hours scrapbooking，writing or painting.
COUNTRY
Country music came from the folk songs of English，Scottish，and Irish settlers of the southeastern United States.
If you like country，you express your opinions well，which makes you the ideal class president or team captain.Traditional and loyal，you enjoy spending time with your family.

ROCK/ALTERNATIVE
In the 1950s，rock music created a brand-new culture.Teenagers，for the first time，had an identity(身份) separate from adults and children.
If you like rock/alternative，you are a risk-taker who never accepts no for an answer.You rise to any challenge，like doing very well in a big exam or landing the lead in the school play.
If these personality profiles don’t match you，that’s OK.These are just for fun.

A famous teacher was speaking to the students at our school.He began his lesson by holding up a ￥100 bill.Then he said to the three hundred students，“Who would like this ￥100 bill？” The students began to put up their hands at once.
Then he said，“I am going to give this ￥100 to one of you，but first，let me do this.” He then made the bill into a ball.Then he said，“Who wants it now？” The hands went back into the air.
“Well，”he said，“what if I do this？” and he dropped it on the floor and stepped on it.He picked up the dirty，crumpled bill and said，“Who still wants it？” Hands_went_back_into_the_air.
“My friends，” he said，“you have learned a valuable lesson today.No matter what I did to the money，you still wanted it because it did not go down in value.It was still worth ￥100！”
Many times in our lives，we are dropped，crumpled，and stepped on by the chances we take and the things that happen to us.We feel as if we are worth nothing.But remember，no matter what has happened to you，you will never lose your value：you are always valuable to those people who love you.Your value doesn’t come from what you do or whom you know，but WHO YOU ARE.

“Granny，granny，”Johnnie returned.“I’ve got your post！”
He gave her four envelopes.Three were from old friends.The fourth was in Myra’s writing.
“No parcel(包裹)，Johnnie？”
“No，granny.”
Almost unwillingly，she tore the fourth envelope open.Folded in the card was a check.Written on the card was a message：Happy Birthday—Buy yourself something nice with the check，Myra and Harold.

He stayed on my mind all day，and I knew what I had to do.I went out to a shop and bought him a watch.It was not an expensive one，but one that was very similar to the one he had.
When I saw him the next day，he was smiling and cheerful as ever.When I bent down to put some change in his cup，I also dropped in the watch.I didn’t say anything about it.I just smiled at him and kept on walking.He didn’t even notice it until I had walked on.I looked back and watched as he pulled the watch from the cup.He looked towards me and I just smiled and nodded.He put the watch on with a big smile on his face and I walked happily on my way.

Dear Miss Zhang，
I’m a student of Chenguang middle school.And I like your music programme so much，especially the English songs，that I listen to it as long as I have free time.
As a student，I’m busy with my studies.When I feel tired，I will listen to your programme and relax myself.Then I will devote more energy to learning well.And I’m glad to tell you that I’ve also learned many English words from some English songs，which makes my parents very pleased.Besides，I like many popular songs，of which Jay Chou’s songs are my favourites.
I hope the programme will become more and more popular among our students with your efforts.
Yours sincerely，
Li Ming
