Miss Bianca Monica, a junior here at Marymount Manhattan College, is currently sifting (筛选) her way through New York City working towards her dream of making rock music with high quality that you only hear occasionally.
“It was a journey. I wanted to study communications and learn how things work in the music industry，” explained Monica. This is a young lady who knows what she wants and is putting in the effort to achieve it. Born a Jersey girl, Monica knew she was made to be in New York.
With the overpowering support Monica receives from her hometown, it's obvious that such a backbone helps her step into the studio. At a young age of 14，Monica led a rock band. After the Robbery, the band saw huge success；they played numerous live performances around the city.Monica has also performed solo at the now closed Angels and Kings.
When asked about her choice in style, her eyes light up with a great passion.
“When writing my new record, we tried doing the dance route; then I realized: this is not me. Rock is in my blood. I just love music that makes you feel like your whole soul is pouring out of your body，” voiced Monica.
For a 21-year-old, Monica possesses the passion of someone who's been writing music forever. Her musical style, with a heavy diet in that old rock and roll music, shares some similar features with 90s music.
When the Jersey girl isn't in her usual studio, you can find Monica hanging around, going to shows, and enjoying the beauty of inspiration all around NYC. In late spring, Monica hopes to schedule a variety of shows to promote her new EP. Until then, you simply cannot miss out on hearing this wonderfully talented rock star.

Music is not just a set of sounds and rhythms. Its influence on the brain is much deeper than any other human experience. Keep on reading to know all those amazing power of music.
A recent study suggests that preterm(早产的) babies appear to experience less pain and feed more when listening to music. Experts led by Dr. Manoj Kumar of the University of Alberta, Canada, found that music had a beneficial effect on reducing pain for preterm babies experiencing painful medical tests. It also appeared to benefit full-term babies during operations.
Many people experiencing brain damage have speech and movement-related problems. Music can help recover from brain injuries. As a different and effective treatment, doctors often advise such patients to listen to good music to improve the parts of the brain responsible for these two functions. When people with neurological(神经的) disorders hear a musical beat, it helps them to regain a balanced walk.
Though music cannot make deafness disappear, it really can stave off the loss of hearing. There was an experiment involving 163 people where 74 were musicians. Participants were asked to pass some listening tests. Musicians heard the sounds better than non-musicians, and this difference gets clearer with age. This means that a 70-year-old musician hears better than a 50-year old non-musician, even in a noisy environment.
Besides, music mends a broken heart.It is not about a thrown-away love, but about a heart attack.The matter is that music can help people recover from a heart attack or heart operation by reducing blood pressure, slowing down the heartbeat rate, and reducing anxiety. Listening to the quality music produces positive emotions, improves the movement of blood, and expands blood vessels, thus, promoting quick recovery of the whole cardiovascular(心血管的) system.
文章大意：本文是一篇说明文。主要说明了音乐对人的大脑和心理产生的积极影响。
32．How does music affect preterm babies？ A
A．It helps reduce their pain.
B．It helps develop their potential in music.
C．It helps improve their hearing systems.
D．It helps repair their neurological systems.
解析：细节理解题。第二段第一句“A recent study suggests that preterm (早产的) babies appear to experience less pain and feed more when listening to music.”可知最近的一项研究表明，早产儿在听音乐时，似乎经历的痛苦更少，吃得更多。故音乐可以帮助早产儿减少痛苦。故选A。
33．What does the underlined phrase “stave off” in Paragraph 4 mean？ C
A．Lead to. B．Increase.
C．Prevent. D．Break into.
解析：词义猜测题。画线部分所在句“Though music cannot make deafness disappear, it really can stave off the loss of hearing.”句意：虽然音乐不能使失聪消失，但它确实可以防止听力丧失。可知stave off意思为“延缓，推迟，阻止”。故选C。
34．Why can music mend a broken heart？ A
A．It has a positive effect on human body systems' work.
B．It can help people prevent diseases caused by anxiety.
C．It helps make a person feel optimistic about life.
D．It can help patients recover in a slow way.
解析：细节理解题。最后一段中的“Listening to the quality music produces positive emotions, improves the movement of blood, and expands blood vessels, thus，promoting quick recovery of the whole cardiovascular (心血管的) system.”可知，听高质量的音乐可以产生积极的情绪，促进血液运动，扩张血管，从而促进整个心血管系统的快速恢复。故音乐通过对人体系统的工作产生积极的影响以使心脏快速恢复。故选A。

Miss Bianca Monica, a junior here at Marymount Manhattan College, is currently sifting (筛选) her way through New York City working towards her dream of making rock music with high quality that you only hear occasionally.
“It was a journey. I wanted to study communications and learn how things work in the music industry，” explained Monica. This is a young lady who knows what she wants and is putting in the effort to achieve it. Born a Jersey girl, Monica knew she was made to be in New York.
With the overpowering support Monica receives from her hometown, it's obvious that such a backbone helps her step into the studio. At a young age of 14，Monica led a rock band. After the Robbery, the band saw huge success；they played numerous live performances around the city.Monica has also performed solo at the now closed Angels and Kings.
When asked about her choice in style, her eyes light up with a great passion.
“When writing my new record, we tried doing the dance route; then I realized: this is not me. Rock is in my blood. I just love music that makes you feel like your whole soul is pouring out of your body，” voiced Monica.
For a 21-year-old, Monica possesses the passion of someone who's been writing music forever. Her musical style, with a heavy diet in that old rock and roll music, shares some similar features with 90s music.
When the Jersey girl isn't in her usual studio, you can find Monica hanging around, going to shows, and enjoying the beauty of inspiration all around NYC. In late spring, Monica hopes to schedule a variety of shows to promote her new EP. Until then, you simply cannot miss out on hearing this wonderfully talented rock star.

Music is not just a set of sounds and rhythms. Its influence on the brain is much deeper than any other human experience. Keep on reading to know all those amazing power of music.
A recent study suggests that preterm(早产的) babies appear to experience less pain and feed more when listening to music. Experts led by Dr. Manoj Kumar of the University of Alberta, Canada, found that music had a beneficial effect on reducing pain for preterm babies experiencing painful medical tests. It also appeared to benefit full-term babies during operations.
Many people experiencing brain damage have speech and movement-related problems. Music can help recover from brain injuries. As a different and effective treatment, doctors often advise such patients to listen to good music to improve the parts of the brain responsible for these two functions. When people with neurological(神经的) disorders hear a musical beat, it helps them to regain a balanced walk.
Though music cannot make deafness disappear, it really can stave off the loss of hearing. There was an experiment involving 163 people where 74 were musicians. Participants were asked to pass some listening tests. Musicians heard the sounds better than non-musicians, and this difference gets clearer with age. This means that a 70-year-old musician hears better than a 50-year old non-musician, even in a noisy environment.
Besides, music mends a broken heart.It is not about a thrown-away love, but about a heart attack.The matter is that music can help people recover from a heart attack or heart operation by reducing blood pressure, slowing down the heartbeat rate, and reducing anxiety. Listening to the quality music produces positive emotions, improves the movement of blood, and expands blood vessels, thus, promoting quick recovery of the whole cardiovascular(心血管的) system.

32．How does music affect preterm babies？
A．It helps reduce their pain.
B．It helps develop their potential in music.

D．It helps repair their neurological systems.
33．What does the underlined phrase “stave off” in Paragraph 4 mean？
A．Lead to. B．Increase.
C．Prevent. D．Break into.

A．It has a positive effect on human body systems' work.
B．It can help people prevent diseases caused by anxiety.
C．It helps make a person feel optimistic about life.
D．It can help patients recover in a slow way.
35．What may be the best title for the text？

“We must give her ballet lessons to help her improve her skills, ” her father said.
The following day, Melanie's parents took her to a local dance training school.The teacher asked Melanie to dance.The little girl was happy and showed some of her favorite dance steps.However, the teacher didn't seem interested in her performance.
“That's OK.You can leave now！” the teacher said.
Melanie was shocked to hear this.So were her parents.They couldn't believe their ears.
“The girl is common.She does not have the possibility to become a ballerina，”the dance teacher said.“Don't let her waste her time dreaming of becoming a dancer.”
Disappointed, Melanie and her parents returned home.Tears rolled down Melanie's face.Her dreams were broken within a matter of minutes.Without confidence, Melanie never attempted to dance again.She completed her studies and went on to become a teacher in school.Life was good and she kept herself busy with family and work.However, whenever she happened to pass the school's ballet room, memories of childhood dreams danced before her eyes.
