Songs that make our hearts happy can make them stronger too，US researchers reported on Tuesday.
They found that when people listened to their favorite music，their blood vessels(血管)dilated in much the same way as when they are laughing，or taking blood medications.
“We have a pretty impressive effect，”said Dr Michael Miller，director of preventive cardiology(心脏病学)at the University of Maryland Medical Center in Baltimore.
“Blood vessel diameter improved，”he said.“The vessel opened up pretty significantly.You can see the vessels opening up with other activities such as exercise.”A similar effect is seen with drugs such as statins.
When blood vessels open up more，blood flows more smoothly and is less likely to form the clots(凝块) that cause heart attacks and strokes.“We are not saying to stop your statins or not to exercise but rather to add this to an overall program of heart health，”said Miller，who presented his findings to a meeting of the American Heart Association in New Orleans.
Miller's team tested 10 healthy，non-smoking men and women，who were told to bring their favorite music.They spent half an hour listening to the recordings and half an hour listening to music they said made them feel anxious while the researchers did ultrasound tests designed to show blood vessel fun_ction.
Compared to their normal baseline measurements，blood vessel diameter increased 26 percent on average when the volunteers heard their joyful music.Listening to music they disliked blood vessels narrowed by six percent，Miller said.
Miller said he came up with the idea after discovering that laughter caused blood to literally flow more smoothly.“I asked myself what other things make us feel good，besides calories from dark chocolate of course.Music came to mind.It makes me feel really good，”he said.
Most of the volunteers chose country music but Miller said the style is not so important as what pleases each individual.
1．The underlined word “dilate” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “__________”．
A．widen B．move
C．change D．increase
2．According to the passage，which of the following will NOT cause blood vessels to open up?
A．Taking exercise.
B．Listening to unpleasant music.
C．Bursting into laughter.
D．Taking drugs like statins.
3．It can be inferred from the passage that__________.
A．blood clots are caused by heart attacks and strokes
B．music is better than chocolate for your health
C．different music has different effects on different people
D．a person's overall health is more influenced by how much exercise he gets
4．What is the passage possibly taken from?
A．A scientific journal. B．A school textbook.
C．A medical brochure. D．A local newspaper.
5．What's the best title of the passage?
A．Pleasant Music Cures
B．Research into Blood Vessel
C．Music and Heart Attack
D．Music and Happiness

I found a website that has changed my life for the better. The website is wishuponahero.com and it is all about people helping others, not expecting anything in return.
I am a single mom with a son. My son’s 12th birthday was on October 29th, 2007. Knowing that I didn’t have money to buy him a birthday gift had broken my heart. So I decided to post a wish on wishuponahero.com for people to send my son birthday cards.
Many cards just started coming and my little son was very excited and this went on for about three weeks. The smile on his face and the sparkle (闪光) in his eyes brought me to tears.
Then, in the end of November, he started thinking about Christmas and he already knew that there would not be a tree for him because we didn’t have enough money. However, it didn’t matter to him. All he talked about was how much he wanted to make other children smile. So he decided that what he wanted to do was earn money to buy Christmas cards and send them to other children from poor families. My son went out daily and raked (耙) leaves and walked some dogs to make money. Not only did he buy cards, but he also made enough money to buy all the stamps and lollipops (棒棒糖) to be sent with the cards. He sent out about 100 cards. Doing this brought him that same smile and sparkle in his eyes as did the birthday cards that he received.

Annie had just begun school. Her parents were tired of the methods they were using to correct her behavior, including scolding (训斥), and taking away privileges (特权). Annie still needed to be scolded for her bad behavior, but her parents felt the good things she did needed to be recognized. So, they began to spend more time recognizing the improvements (改进) in Annie’s behavior and the good things she did every day rather than like before when they only noticed her bad behavior. Within a few weeks Annie began to change her attitude and her behavior improved.
Praise is one of the most powerful tools parents can use to teach their children good skills and help them grow. Praise works well when it is given and when you remember to use it frequently.
It is important to praise all good behavior. Look for the good things your child does. Praise will have a lot of effects on your child. Use the 4 to 1 rule. For every bad behavior you notice, find four good behaviors or reasons to praise. It is a good way to remember to look for good behavior.
Remember to praise the things your child has already done well, or improvements in his behavior and new skills. Show your agreement by smiling and touching his shoulder or back. Be sure to say what your child did well in detail. Tell your child how good behavior helps and that it is liked by others.

Research has shown that music has an important effect on one’s body and psyche (心灵). In fact, there is a grow-
ing field of health care known as music therapy, which uses music to treat diseases. Even hospitals are beginning to use music therapy. This is not surprising, as music affects the body and mind in many powerful ways.
Research has shown that quick music can make a person feel more alert, while slow music can produce a calm, deep thinking state. Also, research has found that music can change brainwave activity levels. This can help the brain to change speeds more easily on its own as needed, which means that music can bring lasting benefits to your state of mind, even after you’ve stopped listening.
Breathing and heart rates can also be influenced by music. This can mean slower breathing, slower heart rate. This is why music and music therapy can help reduce the damaging effects of long-term stress, greatly promoting (促进) not only relaxation, but health.
Music can also be used to bring about a more positive state of mind by helping to keep worries at bay. Music has also been found to bring many other benefits, such as lower-
ing blood pressure and reducing the risk of strokes. It is no surprise that so many people are considering music as an important tool to help the body become or stay healthy.

Lichens (地衣) are difficult to see. They don’t move. They often mix into the living place. You might not even recognize one if you are looking right at it.
Lichens live on rocks, branches, houses, and even metal street signs. You can find these colorful organisms (微生物) almost everywhere — from deserts to rainforests, and from Antarctica to Africa. They’ve traveled in outer space, and some scientists think there might even be lichens on Mars.
What you probably don’t realize is that a lichen is more than a single thing. It includes two different types of living organisms: a fungus (菌类) and an alga (藻类). Neither of these organisms is a plant, so the lichen isn’t a plant either.
Through photosynthesis (光合作用), the alga gets the sun’s energy to make food for the fungus, which is the place for the alga to live in. However, the alga cannot leave the fungus.
Around the world, scientists have found tens of thousands of types of lichens. Many may not even have been discovered yet. As scientists continue to find new kinds of lichens, they are also working to understand how they are connected to one another. By putting together a lichen family tree, they hope to understand why so many different types of lichens have grown in so many places around the world.
Many researchers are trying to understand basic facts about the organisms and their connections. Researchers are also using lichens to examine the health of the environment.
71. What do we know about lichens according to the passage?
A. They will die if they leave Earth.
B. There are more lichens than plants on Earth.
C. They look similar to the environment around them.
D. They are too small to be easily seen by people.
72. What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?
A. The way lichens live.
B. The natural environment of lichens.
C. The way lichens work as organisms.
D. The family tree of lichens.
73. What is the fun_ction of the alga in lichens?
A. It produces food for the fungus.
B. It offers a living place for the fungus.
C. It makes the lichen a plant.
D. It can protect the fungus.
74. Which of the following statements is NOT the scientists’ purposes of studying lichens?
A. To understand basic facts about them.
B. To creat a lichen family tree.
C. To understand how lichens are related to each other.
D. To understand why lichens can live in different places.
75. We can know from the passage that __________.
A. lichens can be used to better understand the environment
B. lichens don’t have any differences in colors or sizes
C. lichens don’t use photosynthesis like a green plant
D. scientists have discovered every kind of lichen

I went back to visit the town where I am born last week. It was the first time I have been there for ten years, and it had been changed a lot.I remember it as a quiet, friend market town everybody knew everybody else; however, now it is a busy place, full of car and people, but badly polluted. The central park where we used to going for walks every morning seems to have become a car park. It is filled by cars. I am such disappointed that I don’t think I will ever go back again.

Dear Maggie,
How time flies! How are you? What about your holiday? I have a good news to tell you, that is, I’m going to travel to England — your home!
However, I have a few questions and I need your advice. First, when is the most suitable time for tourism in winter? I know that it’s cold and wet at that time, but there must be comparatively better time. Second, I hope you can help me to find accommodation. You know my economic conditions, so please choose the acceptable one. The last one is about the arrangement of my travel. I only have ten days for this travel. How should I arrange my travel? By the way, please introduce me some good places for visiting. Although I have read some travel guides, I still want your suggestions, for you are so familiar with your country.
Best wishes!
Yours,
Lily

Songs that make our hearts happy can make them stronger too，US researchers reported on Tuesday.
They found that when people listened to their favorite music，their blood vessels(血管)dilated in much the same way as when they are laughing，or taking blood medications.
“We have a pretty impressive effect，”said Dr Michael Miller，director of preventive cardiology(心脏病学)at the University of Maryland Medical Center in Baltimore.
“Blood vessel diameter improved，”he said.“The vessel opened up pretty significantly.You can see the vessels opening up with other activities such as exercise.”A similar effect is seen with drugs such as statins.
When blood vessels open up more，blood flows more smoothly and is less likely to form the clots(凝块) that cause heart attacks and strokes.“We are not saying to stop your statins or not to exercise but rather to add this to an overall program of heart health，”said Miller，who presented his findings to a meeting of the American Heart Association in New Orleans.
Miller's team tested 10 healthy，non-smoking men and women，who were told to bring their favorite music.They spent half an hour listening to the recordings and half an hour listening to music they said made them feel anxious while the researchers did ultrasound tests designed to show blood vessel fun_ction.
Compared to their normal baseline measurements，blood vessel diameter increased 26 percent on average when the volunteers heard their joyful music.Listening to music they disliked blood vessels narrowed by six percent，Miller said.
Miller said he came up with the idea after discovering that laughter caused blood to literally flow more smoothly.“I asked myself what other things make us feel good，besides calories from dark chocolate of course.Music came to mind.It makes me feel really good，”he said.
Most of the volunteers chose country music but Miller said the style is not so important as what pleases each individual.
1．The underlined word “dilate” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “__________”．
A．widen B．move
C．change D．increase
2．According to the passage，which of the following will NOT cause blood vessels to open up?
A．Taking exercise.
B．Listening to unpleasant music.
C．Bursting into laughter.
D．Taking drugs like statins.
3．It can be inferred from the passage that__________.
A．blood clots are caused by heart attacks and strokes
B．music is better than chocolate for your health
C．different music has different effects on different people
D．a person's overall health is more influenced by how much exercise he gets
4．What is the passage possibly taken from?
A．A scientific journal. B．A school textbook.
C．A medical brochure. D．A local newspaper.
5．What's the best title of the passage?
A．Pleasant Music Cures
B．Research into Blood Vessel

I found a website that has changed my life for the better. The website is wishuponahero.com and it is all about people helping others, not expecting anything in return.
I am a single mom with a son. My son’s 12th birthday was on October 29th, 2007. Knowing that I didn’t have money to buy him a birthday gift had broken my heart. So I decided to post a wish on wishuponahero.com for people to send my son birthday cards.
Many cards just started coming and my little son was very excited and this went on for about three weeks. The smile on his face and the sparkle (闪光) in his eyes brought me to tears.
Then, in the end of November, he started thinking about Christmas and he already knew that there would not be a tree for him because we didn’t have enough money. However, it didn’t matter to him. All he talked about was how much he wanted to make other children smile. So he decided that what he wanted to do was earn money to buy Christmas cards and send them to other children from poor families. My son went out daily and raked (耙) leaves and walked some dogs to make money. Not only did he buy cards, but he also made enough money to buy all the stamps and lollipops (棒棒糖) to be sent with the cards. He sent out about 100 cards. Doing this brought him that same smile and sparkle in his eyes as did the birthday cards that he received.

Annie had just begun school. Her parents were tired of the methods they were using to correct her behavior, including scolding (训斥), and taking away privileges (特权). Annie still needed to be scolded for her bad behavior, but her parents felt the good things she did needed to be recognized. So, they began to spend more time recognizing the improvements (改进) in Annie’s behavior and the good things she did every day rather than like before when they only noticed her bad behavior. Within a few weeks Annie began to change her attitude and her behavior improved.
Praise is one of the most powerful tools parents can use to teach their children good skills and help them grow. Praise works well when it is given and when you remember to use it frequently.
It is important to praise all good behavior. Look for the good things your child does. Praise will have a lot of effects on your child. Use the 4 to 1 rule. For every bad behavior you notice, find four good behaviors or reasons to praise. It is a good way to remember to look for good behavior.
Remember to praise the things your child has already done well, or improvements in his behavior and new skills. Show your agreement by smiling and touching his shoulder or back. Be sure to say what your child did well in detail. Tell your child how good behavior helps and that it is liked by others.
61. What was the result of recognizing Annie’s good behavior?
A. She started to correct her bad behavior.
B. She was tired of her parents’ scolding.
C. She was not scolded for her bad behavior.

A. Children behave badly more often than they behave well.
B. Parents should focus more on their children’s good behavior.
C. Scolding has less effect on children than praising.

A. praising their children for what they did in detail
B. encouraging their children to go on doing good things

Research has shown that music has an important effect on one’s body and psyche (心灵). In fact, there is a grow-
ing field of health care known as music therapy, which uses music to treat diseases. Even hospitals are beginning to use music therapy. This is not surprising, as music affects the body and mind in many powerful ways.
Research has shown that quick music can make a person feel more alert, while slow music can produce a calm, deep thinking state. Also, research has found that music can change brainwave activity levels. This can help the brain to change speeds more easily on its own as needed, which means that music can bring lasting benefits to your state of mind, even after you’ve stopped listening.
Breathing and heart rates can also be influenced by music. This can mean slower breathing, slower heart rate. This is why music and music therapy can help reduce the damaging effects of long-term stress, greatly promoting (促进) not only relaxation, but health.
Music can also be used to bring about a more positive state of mind by helping to keep worries at bay. Music has also been found to bring many other benefits, such as lower-
ing blood pressure and reducing the risk of strokes. It is no surprise that so many people are considering music as an important tool to help the body become or stay healthy.
66. What can we infer about music therapy?
A. It is a type of music.
B. It is a research about music.
C. It is a kind of musical effect on diseases.
D. It is the use of music method to help treat diseases.

A. music with different speeds has different effects
B. quick music is not good for one’s health

A. it is used by many hospitals
B. it can help change brainwaves
C. it does good to breathing and heart rates
D. it can bring a more positive state of mind

Lichens (地衣) are difficult to see. They don’t move. They often mix into the living place. You might not even recognize one if you are looking right at it.
Lichens live on rocks, branches, houses, and even metal street signs. You can find these colorful organisms (微生物) almost everywhere — from deserts to rainforests, and from Antarctica to Africa. They’ve traveled in outer space, and some scientists think there might even be lichens on Mars.
What you probably don’t realize is that a lichen is more than a single thing. It includes two different types of living organisms: a fungus (菌类) and an alga (藻类). Neither of these organisms is a plant, so the lichen isn’t a plant either.
Through photosynthesis (光合作用), the alga gets the sun’s energy to make food for the fungus, which is the place for the alga to live in. However, the alga cannot leave the fungus.

Dear Maggie,
How time flies! How are you? What about your holiday? I have a good news to tell you, that is, I’m going to travel to England — your home!
However, I have a few questions and I need your advice. First, when is the most suitable time for tourism in winter? I know that it’s cold and wet at that time, but there must be comparatively better time. Second, I hope you can help me to find accommodation. You know my economic conditions, so please choose the acceptable one. The last one is about the arrangement of my travel. I only have ten days for this travel. How should I arrange my travel? By the way, please introduce me some good places for visiting. Although I have read some travel guides, I still want your suggestions, for you are so familiar with your country.
Best wishes!
Yours,
Lily
